6 Music's Desert Island Disco We head to the Desert Island Disco with the smoothest music including Steely Dan, The Doobie Brothers
Tracks Include Listen To The Music by Doobie Brothers Writer Tom Johnston described the motivation for the song as a call for world peace:
"The chord structure of it made me think of something positive, so the lyrics that came out of that were based on this utopian idea that if the leaders of the world got together on some grassy hill somewhere and either smoked enough dope or just sat down and just listened to the music and forgot about all this other bullshit, the world would be a much better place. It was very utopian and very unrealistic (laughs). Peg by Steely Span "Peg" has been described by AllMusic critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine as a "sunny pop" song with "layers of jazzy vocal harmonies",[3] while music scholar Stephen K. Valdez said it features a fusion of jazz and rock elements. Lowdown by Boz Scaggs
