#760 — Whales

A quirky program with whalesong, protest songs and stories about whales and hunting depicted in dance, song and poetry over many decades, with some very odd snippets from Robert Morley and Kamahl, and even a song about a whale drinking at a bar. 

In the second hour, some new and recent releases along with a tribute to the Breton singer & clarinettist Erik Marchand.
