MONDAY AUG 21 – Well, that road trip to SW Colorado last week meant I didn’t get a regular episode of the show produced.

Colorado Music Hall of Fame 2011-2022, Colorado Women of the 20th Century. Colorado Women of the 21st Century. Colorado Award Winners and Superstars PT1. Best of Caribou Ranch. Songs for and About Colorado.
Don’t forget – many (most) of the stations the Colorado Playlist is broadcast from archive up to two weeks worth of shows. Check links at stations and times to find out.
