Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

@Mailman Tom, I don't know what the M stood for - the main guy's name is Robin Scott, so that doesn't help.

I'm sorry, cuz I don't listen as often as I should, but I'm still hangin' on the comforting sound of the vinyl crackle. Is it me or is it a little bit like mac and cheese for the ears?

Vinyl is something you can "sink your teeth into" it's just the way it feels and sounds too ! resilient ..

Michael from the Left Coast:

EFD--you missed nothing in this game tonight (except about twenty conferences on the mound between Contreras and whoever was the Cubs pitcher at the time--often with no outs or with two outs and no one on base--I don't know what was going on there, unless the Cubs figured out that the Indians stole signs in game one)
