Hi, folks.
I hope you're having a great weekend. If you missed Friday's broadcast you can find the (always free) archive right here. See below for the list of songs from this episode. Enjoy, and thanks for listening!
On February 18, don't miss The Cranktones at the Midway! Early show (4:00-8:00 PM), with Easy Ed's Record Hop spinning the platters whenever the band isn't onstage. All ages. For details, see the Facebook event page.
Many thanks to Kathy Wade for her poster design. Isn't this cool?
