2007 Year End Recap

So, as I type this there's about 30 minutes left in 2007. My favorite CD's of the year were This Is Ryan Shaw by Ryan Shaw, 100 Days, 100 Nights by Sharon Jones and The Dap-Kings, Revenge by Robbie Fulks, Music For Town and Country by The Hacienda Brothers. I didn't really buy many new releases this year. I've just been collecting more 40's and 50's R&B. My favorite movies were Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, No Country For Old Men, The Lives of Others, Once, The Lookout, Michael Clayton and Zodiac. So as the year comes to a close I still don't have a start date for the radio show. As I always say...stay tuned for updates. Happy New Year!
