Episode 571: Ain't It Baby

May 12, 2026 · 1 h 2 min

Show notes

This week on On Target is like a hard candy with a juicy Northern Soul center—crack through the outer shell and the sweetness hits fast. Mod Marty threads together sharp cuts from The Who, the unstoppable energy of Jackie Wilson, and the smooth glide of The Marvellos into one irresistible mix. The edges are tough, the middle’s pure release, and every spin leaves you wanting another hit. Drop the needle and get to the good part.
