One of the guiding lights on this program is the late, great Willie P Bennett. He died on February 15, 2008, and I’ve vowed to keep playing his music as long as I’m around. There are some exciting tribute shows going on this week, and BIG news about the LONG-awaited re-release of his music to discuss on this week’s show. We also heard a lot of his songs, both the originals and some cool covers, as well as some Willie tribute songs, some of Willie’s contributions to other artists’ albums, and more.

This is one of our standby series of pre-recorded episodes that are meant to be timeless, so we can pop them into the schedule again some time when I can’t be at the studio live, so enjoy this one now and again!

It’s a good thing that I’m so slow making a “Best of” list each year (when I actually do), because I’m constantly finding new music from years past and re-evaluating the choices. This week I discovered two albums worthy of a spot right near the top of the list, and spun some music from those as well as some more worthy contenders. We also had some great requests & suggestions from listeners.
