Re: Tight Play Lists



It's great having you on "The List," Barry.  I've been a fan of "The Lost
45s" since I first heard it on WZLX in 1983-ish.  I think that it's a great
idea that's lasted through the years because of the way you present it, not
forgetting that it's all about fun.  It truly captures the spirit of Top 40
Radio where a hard rocker can be played right next to a sappy ballad.

It's too bad that so many PDs are so afraid to carry the show.  Have you
ever thought about webcasting the show via RealAudio?
