New Year Show coming Fri 12/31 at 3pm

Sure, there are plenty of Christmas songs you never hear on the radio, and every year I'm happy to explore the world of orphaned songs of the season and play them on the show. It takes a long time to compile and assemble the show but it's a labor of love.

The harder part though, is to find two hours of New Year songs. Preferably songs without the words "Auld," "Lang," and "Syne." Yes, a two-hour rock and roll New Years theme show without U2's overplayed (but excellent) "New Years Day" or Eagles' (not excellent) "Funky New Year."

Tune in and hear the show. Individual songs that are not necessarily about new year's day, but that collectively fit the theme of the show. Songs about saying good bye to the past, songs about counting down, celebrating, January, new beginnings, and general merriment.

In the New York's Hudson Valley, tune in at 3pm Friday to 91.3 FM WVKR. Out of the reach of the station's signal? Tune in at www.wvkr.org by clicking the "Click HERE to HEAR" link near the top right side of this playlist blog, and turn it up to 11. More specifically, 2011.

Wow. Afternoon Drive. What a treat filling in for Sammy's "Lost and Found Oldies Show!" I headed for the back room of the Clarkives and dug through shelf after shelf of my old 45s, checked to see that nobody had walked off with the 45 rpm adapters on the turntables (they make good miniature hockey pucks for imprompu games of table hockey) and jumped back about forty years to the age of vinyl.

It's a new year, so I figured I'd post a weekly schedule to help you figure which Thursdays I'm on and which ones Marc Breslav is on. Yes, it's generally every other week, but sometimes Marc and I need to switch things around to accomodate the rest of our lives. Here's the schedule as of mid-January, but it may change as time goes on, so if you're writing on your calendar, use pencil not pen.

1/21 Clark
1/28 Clark
2/4 Marc
2/11 Marc
2/18 Clark
2/25 Marc
3/4 Clark
