"The Dog Ate My Playlist" December 15, 2006

(Week 66)

So much for writing it on lasagna. Seriously, I thought I would dispense with my "theme" conceit for the last show of the season, and just play a bunch of old favorites (plus one or two great new acquisitions). Just good music tonight at 8 PM EST on WHCL.

(And, before I unravel the playlist, let me remind you to tune in early and listen late--RETRO RADIO--featuring music of the 50s and 60s--at 6 PM and a FROM THE GRASSY KNOLL special on aspartame at 10. And, if you're really good, I may stick around and play one or two other hot jazz selections at 11 PM before shutting the transmitter down for break.)
