"If I Could Be With You" (January 31, 2008) INTERNET ONLY

(Week 108)

WHCL is back on the air--but (owing to the sports schedule) I'm not. Nonetheless, I'm posting yet another delightful internet-only RADIOLA! on Live365 to keep the content fresh. I even set up an impromptu home studio to get the job done. You may notice a hint of frustration here, also--this too shall pass.
