Years ago, I was driving down the highway, listening to a program on my local PBS station, “Vinyl Cafe” a Canadian program. That show ended with the death of the host, a few years back. Anyway, the theme of the show was “anthems.” They played a version of “Ode To Joy” that had me sobbing, just so, so moving. I’ve listened to a bunch of OTJ vids on YT, can’t find one that hits me like that one did. Tried searching Vinyl Cafe but no luck. Post anything you think is cool but I would love to find that particular one. ---

Have you tried asking the programme’s producers directly?
