MONDAY MORNING MUSIC MEETING

starrsguitars.com

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.

Let me know what you think of the debuts (D) I shared in the show this week.

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.

I’m mostly retired now and the costs of producing the show, tracking airplay and maintaining the site are really starting to eat into my monthly retirement income.
