June 10th to June 16th, 2018
It's always a pleasure for me to bring you a new show every week, and this week was no exception. Having a very large music library, I enjoy preparing the playlist for the show. I'll look through the titles and come across that I think you would like to hear, then add it to the list. But it's more than just putting a list of songs together; it's about the feel and flow of the music that I really like. For example, I really enjoyed playing My Back Pages by The Byrds, as well as the top 10 Manhattan Spiritual by Reg Owens and His Orchestra, That song was from 1959, the Spotlight Year this week on the show. You feedback to these and other songs I played makes it all worthwhile. Thanks very much.
