PLAYLIST FOR “2025 -THE YEAR IN REVIEW” 12.27.25

29 Dec

For the final show of 2025, I looked back at some of my favorite musical themes, some favorite new singers I discovered this year, and bid a fond farewell to the penny plus some of the singers and musicians who will be among the missing in 2026. Great music but unfortunately I spent too much time looking back and now I have a stiff neck. (This was a lot easier when I was younger.)

PLAYLIST FOR “HALLOWEEN PARTY 2019” (10.26.19)

27 Oct

My Tenth Annual Halloween party with more treats than tricks. I got to play my favorite haunting melodies with  a number of them sung by some of my favorite ghosts. Of course, my favorite part every year is the game of being visited by trick or treaters and having to guess their costumes. Instead giving them candy, I hand out appropriate songs. A good time was had by all…okay, maybe only by me.
