Combo in part due to the musicians' strike. For some I couldn't even confirm release dates.

It's Woody Guthrie for 5 of the first 6 tracks. Lead Belly and Arthur Crudup provide blues; Dinah Washington, Louis Jordan, & Hot Lips page bring jazz

#YearPlaylist: 1994

Surprised I played so many songs from 1994 on my old show- it was more about the 1930s-80s, based on my knowledge and interest at the time

Which may explain why so many artists show up 2 or 3 times... I didn't know many that had records that year

#YearPlaylist: 1973 Part 1

Not sure any of my year playlists have been quite so mainstream - i.e., featured so many hits. Is it because I was still a pre-teen listening to WLS (top 40) radio at the time? Or was it just a good year for music, mainstream or otherwise?

It's a short one for a change, but sometimes those are the best.
Might as well call it CBGB because it's nothing but country, bluegrass, and various shades of blues.

A short one. In ‘88 I was a “mature” student & became a parent, hindering music discovery.
Some of these I heard on mixtapes sent by my old record shop comrade in London. He knew I was missing out & went out of his way to keep me in the loop.
