Ruby Slippers for September 26 7-8 pm

Hey everybody,

Here it is, the last weekend of September. How time flies, right?
Gotta say, between the summer weather during the day and the cold at night, most of us are not sure which way to turn.
So...we could all probably use an upbeat soundtrack as we muddle along confused but not bowed!

Enjoy!

Thanks for listening.

Hey everybody!

Oh brother!
Whenever folks graciously agree to cohost, part of the deal is to pick music for the playlist.

Well.

I can't even begin to tell you how much MAKAR sent me, and frankly we could do at least 4 shows based on their incredible list. However, it's only an hour (sigh) AND there will be live performance in there too, so this is a list of what I have on hand to fill in between their chat and song making.

Not all of it will be played.  Notice the width and breadth of the choices!
