Uncle Mort's fate
Hey, Dale or Steve;
I have enjoyed your show for decades and sincerely hope your long-running show does not suffer the fate of Rockaholics Annonamus. Uncle Mort is no longer avail. by email;
can you tell me if his appeal was successful? How I can reach him? Wishing you continued success in navigating the treacherous political waters of kboo.
Tim
you have great taste

pleeease.. . playlist for 1/28/11
Hi there, I was so lucky to have tuned in on Friday afternoon to catch my first listen ever of your outstanding show. My goodness, thank you! I've never heard it, I've never ever felt it, not like that before!
I am writing to THANK YOU! And I am writing to beg you to please post the playlist for that show - on 1/28/11. There was an early Ray Charles gem, a Slim Harpo number, there was one song with a flirty guitar riff that made me go silly in the knees. And I just have to hear it again.
Please, please, please will you post this playlist?!
Thank you, thank you. You made an instant listener out of me!
:)
Lauren
