#COMUSIC TOP 20 JUNE+ DEC-JUNE 2023

JULY 4, 2023 – HAPPY INDEPENDANCE DAY! Yes, I’m working. What else am I supposed to do in my “retirement.” (yeah, right! LOL).

Well, you did it again. You tied a decade long record for most views per month since JUNE 2014, and the average highest number of views per day. Thank you for your continued support.

The Colorado Playlist is provided at no cost to radio stations. Your donation will VERY HONESTLY HELP to keep this going. Please. Donate below or via Venmo at chrisk-2.

WHO ARE YOU? It’d be great to know a bit about you. Since the info obtained is for my own use only, I’ve hidden the results.

ABOUT THE CHARTS

Every Sunday I survey over a dozen community/public and college stations, which includes spins on the Colorado Playlist.

The monthly survey period is from the first week ending with a Sunday, through the last week ending with a Saturday.  Yearly spins are pulled and calculated from December through the next November.

The annual new release year begins in November, although there are some released in October that make the cut. I track all titles for a full calendar year from the official date of release.

Titles are linked to its respective YouTube page. Don’t forget to visit Chris K’s Colorado Playlist Channel for the largest collection of Colorado music, going back over a decade.

CP S17 EP25 2023

MONDAY JULY 03 – HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY. Or, in my case, HAPPY RETIREMENT DAY (weekend). I’m on the road for the July 4th weekend, so the charts will be late. I’ll get them done this week.

I started my radio career in Greeley in Aug 1978 on KFKA/KFKZ (Greeley). On Friday, June 30, I officially performed my last and final on air shift at 105.5 The Colorado Sound, KJAC (Greeley) – the Colorado Playlist will continue to be heard at 6AM Saturday and 6PM Sunday.

The Colorado Playlist began life as the Colorado Sound in April 2006 on KRFC (Fort Collins). I’ve got a few years left before the show hits its 20th Anniversary, at which time I’ll likely turn over the mic to someone who can keep it going another twenty years (hopeful).
