Well. Here it is. The eighteenth (18th) birthday show I have made for the woman I love. We've been together for twenty years - & married for thirteen (!) of those - & somehow I've managed to find enough birthday songs - recordings I have not previously played - to fill many hours of radio. Every year it seems like I just won't be able to do it - writing birthday songs is not an industry like Christmas songs - but this year was not my Waterloo. I will live to have another birthday show.
That being said, except for the awful in-studio version of the Beatles' "Birthday," I think it went all right. I will remind you that it's the End Of The Year Membership Drive at KBOO so your support would be greatly appreciated - donate here! But my wife would rather you get her a birthday present. I will not however share her outrageous wish list with you. No one needs that many fancy ladders.
You can listen to the show now, or on your birthday, or on anyone's birthday, at both the KBOO website or at the Self Help Radio website. Should you choose the latter, make sure you remember the username (SHR) & the password (selfhelp) or you won't be able to listen. So much happens during the show! What is played & what happens is detailed below.
