The computer at the station has been offline, so I'm posting in advance the planned playlist, however I'll be adding some tributes to Jay Miller of Excello Records... random whimsy will dictate that when Tuesday 6-8 p.m. arrives.
Refresh your screen often - the computer is working and we're updating as we go with tidbits and new info! :)
Next week, the show extends to summer hours (6-9 p.m.).
