Episode #127: Stuff Like That
And just like that, summer 2019 crumples itself into the out tray as autumn sweet-talks itself into operating mode. I learned that in poetry class. The final Star Time Summer Special of the year, in the second half of this show, is a tribute to pop music overseer and Seattle icon Quincy Jones, featuring some of my favorite tracks that he wrote, produced, arranged or performed. It's got some surprises. Life is a constant series of surprises. I learned that in fiduciary class. (P.S. Taking a break next week. Star Time will return the week of September 9.)
