Christmas week 09

I seem to have lost track of my playlist from Christmas Eve eve, if there ever was one (a list, that is). For now, I will give you the artists names of new releases I played this past Monday morning when I filled in for Grant. I didn't write down the titles. I blame it on the fog of the holidays, which I hope are going well for you.

Be there this Monday morning Dec. 21

I will be 'filling in' for Grant K. this coming Monday morning 6 am to 9 am on WMSE 91.7/ wmse.org. I'll toss in a few holiday tunes but mostly play that somewhat mellow morning Mars mix. Happy holidays, aina?
