I received a message from Stuarto requesting I cover his show in the late afternoon hours of Friday, March 8. After a minute or two to think about it, I agreed. In all the times I’ve covered for his show over the past year and a half, I have never done a show that gives a nod to his show, which often features more mainstream music including a handful of tunes from the 60s and 70s. For March 8, I decided this needed to change.
I pieced together quite the show for the first two hours, all of it featuring tracks from the 60s and 70s. And, to be honest, I found it absolutely delightful. I had the time of my life! For the second two hours, it was things as usual.
