Tom’s guests on Sunday 4/4 @ 1 p.m were Arah Saedinia and Mahssa Taghinia, producers of Pomegranates.

The new various artist compilation revisits the vitality and variety of pre-revolutionary pop before the ax fell in 1979. It’s music that is influenced by UK and American pop, funk, and blues, as well as Arabic and Bollywood influences as well. It’s also music from a period that many people didn’t know about or have forgotten.
