MONDAY OCT 23, 2023 – We’re a week away from the end of the month and as you might expect, Gregory Alan Isakov and Kiltro are still on top of the leader board for October, with Dragondeer** and former Colorado based *Strawberry Runners chasing the leaders. Former Colorado based *Wildermiss leads this week with their latest single Gettin’ Old Rock & Roll.

This weeks MMMM (Monday Morning Music Meeting) includes a track from the Birds of Play who have been crushing the airwaves in a handful of mountain stations, that I just got around to debuting on the show. Let us know what you think below.

A reminder. If you want to listen to the show on demand go to the station pages where the show is aired and check to see if a) they stream and b) if they have a two week archive section like what 105.5 The Colorado Sound and others have.

Join me for a special night as I receive a Lifetime Achievement Award.

CP S17 EP37 2023

A Front Range sunset taken by Chris with a Samsung S21

MONDAY OCT 16, 2023 – ON THE ROAD AGAIN! We needed some Western Slope love, so we headed out for a long weekend to visit our future home in Grand Junction. Claire got some great shots of the Milky Way overlooking Cedaredge that hopefully we’ll share with you next Monday. Sooooooooo. NO TOP 5 TODAY. Check out the Colorado Playlist Facebook page and I’ll post up there tomorrow. You can find the HOT SPINS on the NoCO Front Range there now.

As happens occasionally, one of the (D) tracks is not yet released. Look for New Family Dog to drop a new album soon. Thanks to Jon Ridnell for getting me a track early to share with you on the show – but you’ll have to listen to the show to hear it for now. See stations and times page for where you can listen until Friday, or on the archive page at ColoradoSound.org
