Episode #82: Welcome to Dreamsville


Autumn, my favorite season, has landed. For some living organisms it's the beginning of the slow discoloration and structural decay that will end with their unceremonious deaths. For others, it's football season! For Star Time it's the return to our full-time R&B jukebox format after a summer of themed shows. To ease everybody back into consciousness I've got a '60s-heavy episode that's stuffed with 37 great recorded performances. Load up, 'cause burning season's less than a week away. Torch that debris!
