The last program of the year and one that I was happy not to miss. Amazingly it has been almost 2 months since I was last there. Lucky and glad to be with you once again. The playlists represents both of our (Ron & I) favorite recordings this past year. Sadly, I, and I assume Ron as well, had to leave a few out given the time constraints. We both had one that we could not leave out thought---Pete Seeger "At 89".
On a personal note---thanks for all the calls today (one even before the show started) welcoming me back---THANK YOU ALL. As Andy Kaufman says in our Simcha sign-off---I Love You.
I will leave out the faces to put with the voices on this edition since, I think. you know them all.
If you check the main page--- www.billhahnprogramnotes.blogspot.com tomorrow (or click on the link) my personal favorites will be up there at that time. I must say, however, that many of Ron's would have also been my choices and I assume vice versa---we both felt that At 89 was an important disc to present---a man who, as I said on the air, did it his way (not Sinatra) and, as the film said---build it and they will come. So they have for Pete Seeger.

In case you did not click on the Program Notes page here is a copy of it. This is, obviously not a playlist but a report that new programs start again on 12/14/08 and I am happy to report that my road to recovery, so far, has had no potholes.
I have to say one has to count one's blessings for the recovery and for the care and caring of friends, family, and listeners and many artists.
SO---see you once again on the radio. Tune up your ears.
From the PROGRAM NOTES PAGE:
TRADITIONS: I am planning on returning to the program for our year end program wherein Ron and I present the recordings of the past year that we found very meaningful. While we will also recall the people we lost this year I will offer my thanks for not being among them and also offer thanks to all of you have kept me in your thoughts and prayers. The letters and cards more were touching and meaningful. I do notice that with the poor auto sales none of you rushed out to buy a bargain gift for me. In all honesty; your thoughts and cards were more meaningful. I was not able to drive for a time in any case.
SUNDAY SIMCHA: All of the above. You may have noted that since the end of Oct. the programs have been "encores"---fancy word for "repeats". Starting Dec. 14 the shows will once again be new. Don 't forget we have to have a Hannukah (spell it anyway you like) party. So get out the dreydls and lets place a few large wagers.
