radio boise playlist for week of 01/01/07

Another New Year, and the same old eclectic and musty junk.

Hmm... Anything in this set from THIS century? No, not even. Does that tell us that 'Everything Old Is New'? Probably not. Maybe next time.

Looks like the focus in this week's show shifted and drifted from some kind of vintage Euro beat to Beatsploitation and bebop, found a link to Cowboy Bebop and Western Swing, and then morphed to Big Beat R&B & Rockabilly Roots, before sliding out the door with some Euro Pop of a different stripe.

All & all a howling good time.

If you're curious about some of the selections please drop me a line. Click on the 'Email me' link and send me your questions, concerns, suggestions... All are appreciated.

Thanks! Here's to a brighter '07.
