Songs of March and coming in like a lion were part of Capital Radio, as were songs that responded to the day’s stated command: March Forth.
Then it was time to celebrate the birthdays of Bobby Womack, born this day in 1944 and Evan Dando, turning 57 today. Also noted the birthdays of Miriam Makeba, born this day in 1932, Paul Muriat (1925), Chris Squire (1948) as well as Devo co-founder Bob Lewis, turning 77.
Closed with songs of tomorrow’s Super Tuesday, but also supermen, superwomen, supergirls, super babies, super freaks and the super bad.
