Coffee Break: Instrumentals
by Anna Reed
March 09, 2018
We had quite an adventure with this morning's Song War. Brian and Jill were challenged to an instrumental war and they both chose the same song - Billy Preston's "Outa-Space".
The song didn't get played however, because Producer Anna's last-minute pick of "Tequila" by The Champs took the crown with 73 percent of the vote. But maybe we'll get to play some Billy Preston after all this morning...
