Shades of Rosemary Woods - there was an 18-minute gap in today's show. Shortly before the end of the first hour, the signals for both Fredonia Radio Systems stations, WCVF and WDVL, suddenly went dead. The monitors seemed to indicate that there was nothing wrong in the booth, but we could hear nothing, and our listeners heard nothing. It turns out that electricians working a floor or two above the station accidentally unplugged our connection to the transmitter, since we somehow were plugged into a socket marked "spare". After 18 minutes of silence, we were back on the air. So the playlist may be just a bit shorter today! To the list -

Things must be getting better around here, This playlist is only four days late this time. By the way, I will not be doing anything special as far as Halloween goes this year, maybe a song or two. But I've noticed in the past that Halloween-themed shows are generally my listeners' least favorites. This may well be my fault, as I tend to make bizarre choices which strain the connection to Halloween a bit too much. So I'll be mostly sitting this holiday out. To the list:
