Greg Vandy is the host of The Roadhouse, KEXP\\u2019s Sunday morning roots and American music show. He talks with Isabel Khalili about how the show is more about a feeling than a genre, and how he uses music to draw connections between the past and present. Then he shares three songs he\\u2019s been loving lately, from 60\\u2019s girl group harmonies to a soulful expression of joy, plus one lesser known track from the inventor of the power chord.
