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.

Ken - thanks for your comment and email -- you're right, way more records than I had time for. I think I still wouldn't have run out if I'd stayed on the air this whole time.
Rix - I'm not sure about the demons, but glad I saved your New Year's Eve regardless
slugluv - hope you're feeling better, glad I could raise your spirits at least intermittently.
eegake, Murph, dave, peteski and all -- thanks for listening and for your comments! I had a blast, that was one of the most fun New Year's Eves I've had in a while!
