The official start of our 21st year on UMFM starts with a look back at what we’ve played since our last major set of statistics, the 800th Episode Leaderboard. I’ll add these new numbers to the previous 800 and come up with new all-time leaders, but for now we heard some of our recent most played songs, albums, and artists. We’ve also got the usual contingent of great new music and we send some love out to the great Jon Dee Graham.
