Colorado River flowing along highway 128 in Eastern Utah
Thank you for stopping by. Every week I hope to bring you some of the best of Colorado music from across the decades, and around the state. I also usually share a new landscape photograph by my life-partner, Claire/Clear Vistas Photography.
There is no current website for Claire’s work. If you see a photo you like and would like to have printed, let me know. Email chriskmusic@gmail.com
Last week I made a couple of adjustments to the Monday Morning Music Meeting and This Week on YouTube. The MMMM still asks for your input, but it’s now just KEEP IT or CUT IT .. no equivocation.
THIS WEEK ON YOUTUBE features videos ONLY, of songs in this week’s show.
I WISH I WAS KIDDING. Your SUPPORT is ESSENTIAL.
The Colorado Playlist is the only program showcasing Colorado music statewide, broadcast by 12 stations covering 30 FM/LPFM frequencies.
This show has been my passion for 20 years now. I make this show available at NO COST to community radio stations in our state.
I more or less retired a couple of years ago. There are monthly costs associated with the show that honestly stretch my limited retirement income now.
Your support is essential and sincerely appreciated.
Please make donations via Venmo at chrisk-2 (preferred) or use the form below. Thank you, sincerely – chrisk

MONDAY MORNING MUSIC MEETING
The Monday Morning Music Meeting happens courtesy of Starr’s Guitars in Cedaredge, serving the western slope music community since 1998.
Every year I debut approximately two hundred new current-year songs. Every week I have to make decisions about what to keep to play again and what to archive. This is where you come in.
Should I KEEP IT or CUT IT?
Results enter into determining which cuts stay in the library and which cuts might eventually make it to the annual Colorado Playlist Fan & Listener Poll and the “some of the best of the year” show.
