When Life's a Circus: Tok Tok Tok and "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite"



Feeling a little Beatle-y but not enough to listen to the Fab Four themselves? Try our random tune for today, which is a cover of Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite by German acoustic soul band Tok Tok Tok. Founded in 1998, the band wasa duo made up of Tokunbo Akinro (lyricist) and Morten Klein (composer and arranger), who found kindred spirits in each other. The band operated until 2013, when the duo decided to take a break to focus on solo projects. You can find this jazzy version of Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite on their 2010 album Revolution 69.
