MONDAY NOV 5, 2023 – Welcome to the 2024 new release year. Folks of a certain age might recall when new model year cars were introduced in the fall, while current year models were still on showroom floors. Sorta the same.
In about five weeks you’ll start seeing annual Best Of lists being published. Here in about two weeks I will put up the 14th Annual Colorado Playlist Fan and Listener Polls for 2023. The annual Best Of show will run DEC 30 thru JAN 05. I’ll post up the poll results and 2023 spins chart on JAN 01, 2024.

I post up a Video Pick of the Week every Monday – NORMALLY. Sometimes a video or the performer behind it requires a bit more than simply sharing the video without comment. In this case, the artist is a long time friend whose work I’ve admired for the past twenty-plus years.
