Mr. P's 70's Music Playlist

Our 1970's playlist is the absolute best of that era, but doesn't contain Disco. We love disco so much that we have a separate playlist for that!

This playlist has both up-temp and chill music, and good for both day and evening.

 Highlight: Help me, by Joni Mitchell (1974)

Mr. P's Disco Playlist

WE LOVE DISCO! We were fortunate to have been born before disco became a cliché. The interesting thing about disco is that it lasted exactly one decade: 1970-1980. Disco came on the scene at a unique time in American history when both rich and poor, black and white, gay and straight all came together on the dance floor. The music of the era also defined a first, when the spotlight was no longer on the artist onstage, but on the audience on the dance floor playing out at New York's famed Studio 54.

Artists like Nile Rodgers of CHIC defined the sound, which continues to this day in the form of modern dance music. Nile Rodgers is behind EVERYONE's sound today from Daft Punk to Lady Gaga. They all want that CHIC sound.

Highlight: Love's Theme 1974 (Remastered with vocal), by Love Unlimited Orchestra (Barry White)

Mr. P's PURE Bill Evans Playlist

Jazz pianist Bill Evans was one of THE MOST brilliant composers of his time. His story is also one of the most tragic. When you hear piano on Miles Davis' songs, it's usually Bill Evans. Chet Baker... it's Bill Evans. Cannonball Adderley... it's Bill Evans. When you listen to his music, you can literally hear him thinking through the next note with his fingers. He is an intellectual pianist, and one of the best. We're thrilled to introduce you to his music if you don't already know it. This playlist is PURE Bill Evans magic!

We play Bill Evans late night, after all the guests have left but for a few, sitting around the fire and talking about the deeper intimacies of life, family and business with our inner tribe.

Highlights: Peace Piece, and What Is There To Say?, by Bill Evans

Mr. P's Speakeasy Swing Playlist

This playlist was inspired by hanging out late nights at The Maker in Hudson, NY. Songs have that that "speakeasy" jass (jazz) sound from 1917 to 1939, that's reminiscent of prohibition days with a dash of devil may care thrown in from the swing era. Lots of Brass and Horns. Artists include Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, King Oliver, Bix Beiderbecke, Sidney Bichet, Artie Shaw, Fletcher Henderson among others.

Highlight: Jumpin' At The Woodside by Count Basie

Marian McEvoy x Mr. P's 'Tropicália' Playlist

As we created this collection with Marian McEvoy, we found ourselves inspired by the 1960s Brazilian movement called Tropicália— an artistic movement encompassing music, art and writing celebrating Brazil's culture and people. The blended and smooth sounds of Bossa Nova and Samba were born out of this movement. The music creates an instant mood and makes all your guest happy and joyful!

Highlights: Tanto Tempo by Bebel Gilberto, and Agua De Beber by Astrud Gilberto.

"My favorite party music of all times—So flirtatious and festive!"

Highlight: Feel Me Running Away, by DejaVilla
This is a wonderful and sexy cut that we just adore. Think Hotel Coste, Paris. Another runner up is '//aguardiente y limón ᴗ‿‿ᴗ.' Yep, that's the spelling of the song!

Mr. P's Love Is In The Air Playlist

This playlist was originally created to celebrate Valentine's day, but at the end of the day, it's just damn sexy music!! Curated by our co-founder Martin Cooper, this playlist touches on almost all musical genres and pulls the best from each. We also recommend using this playlist as a substitute playlist for our Wind Down playlist, if you don't like the Jazz.

Highlights: The song that started the playlist is "Kissing" by Bliss found on The Sweet Sound of a Whisper album. Martin found this CD several years ago while shopping at 10 Corso Como in Milan. Other noteworthy songs are a live version of "Fragile" by Sting, and "Swept Away" by The XX.

Mr. P's Lure of the East Playlist

Inspired by the alluring, haunting and sensual sounds of the Near East, this playlist is about time travel and being transported to the call of distant lands. Lure of the East includes several contemporary pieces that serve to bridge the tradition and heritage of the past to the modernity of now. This playlist is pure mood! Perfect for warm sultry evenings or fireside, cuddled with your beloved.

Highlights: The song that started the playlist is "Halet Wayd/ In a State of Passion" by Naseer Shamma. It's drop dead GORGEOUS. Then more recently we added several cuts from the Pakistani artist, Arooj Aftab. She is the first Pakistani artist to win a Grammy (2022). Her voice— haunting, persistent and soulful. Listen to ALL of her songs on the playlist, but most particularly, "Baghon Main Pade Jhoole." You may cry. I did.
