    Lounge Special-Tito Puente

    10/04/2026 | 1h
    A different show this week in  that all the songs we're playing tonight are old songs. We're not playing any neo-lounge at all this week, just thought we'd shake it up a little bit. But I've got a very special thing for you in that a lounge special with Tito Puente is coming your way. And an interesting inspiration as to how I decided to come about this lounge special this week. We'll also take a look at the World of Swing gig guide and our lounge life magazine, a deep thought coming your way, and of course, our world-famous stuff segment here on the Cocktail Nation.
