Tune Time: "Then came the circus so I followed its parade, with all the fancy lion-tamers, high-wire fiery flamers..."
No doubt about this month's choice, it's quite the most dramatic song I think I've ever heard on Radio Two (and one of the longest) - it is, of course, Grace Slick's 'Dreams':
Utterly amazing vocal performance.

Good. Now on my "favourite" list.
Thanks Julia.
Hear the full album. I bought it in 1981. A classic.
"Grace Slag" as she was known back in the day.
Great orchestration, it drowned out her "voice" though...maybe that was deliberate.
Let Hannah Reid from London Grammar have a crack at it.

I shall keep an eye out for them!

Probably will, in the next reality talent show!
