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.

CP S17 EP11 2023

Happy equinox from the desert – Chris K and Claire Mannato.

Monday March 20, 2023. Yep. Claire and I are on vacation in Death Valley. No spins chart this week, but I did get the MMMM done before we left.

We’re only in March and two songs are now in my short list for best song of the year. This week’s entry is from Rebecca Folsom. “Mercy” is an autobiographical tale of her and her sister. Homeless as children, and left behind, Rebecca eventually made it out, her sister didn’t. She would live her life and die in Boulder shelters. It’s a heart wrenchingly emotional performance on what in my opinion is the best song of Rebecca’s career as a songwriter.

Bridget Law has been splitting time between Tierro and Elephant Revival. Expect a new ER album soon.
