PLAYLIST FOR “FINDING MY RELIGION” (9.14.13)

15 Sep

This show was all about feeling the spirit. It was about the joy of accepting soul in your soul. Okay, it was mostly about songs that, either directly or indirectly, mentioned God, and often to ironic effect.  This still is my show after all.

PLAYLIST FOR “LESSONS IN DEVELOPING A ‘CAN’T-DO’ ATTITUDE” (4.28.12)

29 Apr

Any radio program can tell you how to become just another successful “can-do” kind of person, but only Turntable For One dares to show you how to turn everyday pessimism, doubt, and defeat into an hour of great jazz vocals. It’s a dirty job, but I usually wear latex gloves.
