Welcome, Fans of Mellowness

Welcome to those of you who have found your way here from JasonHare.com, and the mention of this blog on the day-10 installment of "The 12 Days of Mellowmas." Yes, "It Doesn't Have to Be That Way" is partially my fault. Thank goodness somebody else suggested it too, so it's not entirely my fault.

This is a blog devoted to music--mostly old but sometimes new--and secondarily to radio. We often post tracks (adhering as always to the standard blog convention that links are up temporarily and for sampling purposes only; we encourage you to buy anything you like, and we'll take a link down if the copyright holder gets in touch) and we occasionally podcast. Your blogger is an old radio guy who stopped making his living in the biz quite a few years ago, but who still dabbles--check the right-hand column to find out when I'm on the air and how to get the stream online.

(If you can't see the right-hand column, you're probably viewing this with IE6 or below. The site looks better if you view it with Firefox or IE7. But if there's no right-hand column visible, scroll down to see links to 2 1/2 years' worth of entries, interesting websites to visit, and suchlike.)

Apart from this welcome, this particular post is otherwise devoid of entertaining and/or useful information. Poke around a bit, though; download our Christmas 2006 podcast if you'd like. There should be a new post here tomorrow--Friday at the latest, so plan to come back regularly. Here at The Hits Just Keep On Comin', we post as often as we can, and we try not to suck.
