Still awaiting absolute final confirmation but it looks very likely as if the NEW TIME for the Golden Oldies program will be Fridays, 2 - 4 p.m. This should be effective as of Friday, September 10. Please take note.
Thanks to both the WEGL management and my supervisor at work for being able to continue broadcasting the Golden Oldies. I've been doing this since May 1998 and really want to keep bringing the best Rock 'n' Roll, Rhythm & Blues, Doo-Wop, Blues, Gospel, Rockabilly, Country, Calypso, Ska, and more from the period c. 1945-1963.

Okay, here's the playlist for Friday, August 13. The show normally is broadcast Fridays, 5 - 7 p.m.

NOTE: will be in St. Vincent in the Caribbean next week, so no Golden Oldies August 6. NEXT SHOW: should be Friday, August 13 if I have no acccess problems. (between semesters, holidays, etc. access to the Student Center is sometimes problematical).
