RoCM Playlist: 06 Jan 2023
Happy New Year proper, everyone – and congrats on making it through the first full week of 2024. Okay yeah, there are still a few more days to go but I’m feeling a tad optimistic.
Kind of an “all-business” edition of the program. No themes or birthdays – just a collection of great jazz tunes.
On a logistical note – I was remiss when I said that this was the final program for the Fall 2023 schedule. That is actually next week. I am expecting to be on the schedule in the same timeslot, but alas, the radio gods may have other things planned for the show.
Here is the playlist for this week. Don’t forget that you can listen online at KCSB-FM’s website and there’s an online archive available for two weeks after the show airs.
