TURNTABLE FOR ONE

I wandered through the Turntable For One archives this week.  I didn’t find my lost youth, but I did find a fun program worth giving a second listen.  Here’s what I wrote about it in January of ’24.

Last week I did  a show with the musical theme, “Uh-Oh Moments!” (If you missed the show, I strongly advise you borrow someone’s notes before the final exam.) So I was trying to think of what to do this week.  What to do? What to do? Then, out of the blue, I had an “Ah-Ha Moment!” (At this stage of the game, I can’t afford to pass up any errant thought or idea.)
