Best of 2012 (So Far) Menu

This week choice selections of the best music that’s come out so far this year that we’ve featured here on this program. Please note that this is not all of the great music that’s emerged in 2012, but since we’re only broadcasting once a week, that limits the amount of servings we can present. I would like to know what your top 3 or top 5 choices are from this week’s program. Leave a comment or tell me on FB or Twitter. Some of what will be heard was released in late 2011 and not featured here until 2012, so make note of that as well. Once again, two hours of great music. *Note, some of these songs were released prior to 2012 but were not featured on our program until this year.*

If you missed part of any of the show on the radio this week, listen again to 2 hours HERE.

Enjoy!

Beyond The Surface Menu

This week I’m serving up music this hour that dives into some deep territories in story-telling and emotional content, with a show titled Beyond The Surface. Sometimes it’s good to focus on musical themes. This time I have songs involving letting go, betrayal, forgiveness, and love. New music and some older stuff all in the mix with the flavors of soul, folk, rock, and even gospel. The Appetizer is available for seconds, thirds, or even eighths. Hear the show again. Click HERE. Enjoy!
