PLAYLIST TRADITIONS MAY 27, 2012

Comments, queries, requests are always welcome via e mail to wfdutraditions@yahoo.com  or via USPS to WFDU/Bill H 1000 River Rd. Teaneck NJ 07666

Don't forget that we are archived for 2 weeks at http://www.wfdu.fm/ if you want to hear any part again.

As you will see (and if you were tuned in heard) from the playlist there was a fascinating guest on the program.  Part of our discussion brought us to Gilbert & Sullivan---after all is not a wandering minstrel a folksinger or singer/songwriter.   If you want more of G&S on the show---just let me know.  As Jolson said---I got a million of 'em .

Some faces for today's voices---

Comments, queries, requests are always welcome via e mail to sundaysimcha@yahoo.com   or via USPS  to WFDU/Simcha 1000 River Rd. Teaneck, NJ 07666

The hour was taken up by a limited number of musical moments because they were lengthy and of of great quality---in my never so humble opinion.  How do they say that in "texting" (when did that become a verb)--IMNHO?

Some faces now to put with the voices today---
