This is one of those occasional episodes that's the musical equivalent of throwing a bunch of differently marked ping-pong balls in a bingo machine, giving that machine a spin or two, then picking up the bingo machine and hurling it against the wall so it smashes and all the ping-pong balls are scattered. Unlike in real life, that process works to
Star Time's benefit. Lots of great R&B and soul from the '60s and '70s, a trick track that was actually made in 2008, and a few other songs with no date on them so we're telling everyone they're from whatever time
Star Wars took place.
