Well, it's the middle of June (almost).

This week features two heavy-duty birthday guests and some new songs for the playlist. It's Eddie Levert's and Lamont Dozier's birthday week so I'm kinda heavy on the O'Jays and Holland-Dozier-Holland songs. Not the ones you'll hear on Top 40 Oldies stations, though.

I also have an Ole Borud song: Little bit of funk from Norway. This guy sounds like a young Stevie Wonder and plays the hell out of his guitar. There's a reconstituted Stylistics cut, the Knight Brothers last record for Checker and a Diplomats we haven't played before. We even have Shagtime Band for everybody who likes Beach Music.

I hope you get the chance to catch the show on Monday or the replays on Wednesday and Saturdays.

On a personal note (because it doesn't happen often); the Red Sox are in first place in the American League East!!! To all my friends who are Phillies fans, yeah, yeah, I know they have the best record in baseball.

Have a great week!
