THURSDAY MORNING MIX
August 6, 2009
Scott Foley


In the "Things Are Changing All the Time" department, the station which houses my endeavors every Thursday morning (KRFC) has begun logging programmers' playlists via Spinitron. If you click on the link, look to the list of participating stations to the left of your screen. Click on KRFC, and you'll be able to check out playlists for all the station's shows. Of course, I'll expect you to come right back here to my humble homepage when you're done ...

I am impressed this week by the new Red House released album by The Pines, Tremolo, as well as Amelia White's Motorcycle Dream. Amelia should recieve much more attention than she has for her well-crafted songs. I was also caught by how much I appreciated Houston Marchman's Long Gone CD, and his duet with Carolyn Wonderland in particular, "I Can't Go Back". The album offers a curious "radio friendly" edit of the song where they replace the reference to cocaine ...
