Living in the 70s

A Seventies banquet

A Seventies banquet

As we have discovered here at Living in the 70s, songwriters love a metaphor. On this week’s show we explore songs from the Seventies featuring food, usually as a stand in for something else – so sex is a custard pie, life is a minestrone and love is as sweet as honey. But sometimes it’s actually food, and Harlem is completely out of greens, because the vegetable man is on strike. Either way, these songs feed our souls in the most delightful and nourishing way. So come enjoy our banquet!
