Greetings to Michael and to your beautiful radio. In my country a radio like yours would not exist. I greatly appreciate the USA for freedom of expression (and your radio is a good example of freedom). Greetings from Andy -Piacenza city ( Italy ) Beautiful song "I Say A Little Prayer" I really like this version! Congratulations! sorry I do not speak English!

RE. Music we "don't like". Most music has its place to be loved. efd has given me an appreciation for disco that I NEVER had before. Good songs are good songs. MS and efd are two of the best at re framing amazing music.

I saw EC and the Imposters a few weeks ago opening for the Who, and they were on fire, 12 or 13 hits in 45 minutes. I have no love for latter day Elvis, and this set was great for me - the most recent song they played was Everyday I Write the Book, and they closed with a cover of Substitute.
