    WFDU-FM's TRADITIONS Playlist for December 26, 2010

    WFDU-FM's TRADITIONS
    Playlist for December 26, 2010
    HOST: Ron Olesko & Bill Hahn(not physically in the studio, but he was
    there in spirit!)

    As "Snowpocalypse 2010" bore down on our listening area, I hosted the show
    solo as Bill was snowed in at his home in New York State. Normally Bill and
    I host the final show of the year together and share our favorite recordings
    of the previous 12 months, but the weather prevented this from happening.
    I did share most of Bill's favorites from 2010 as well as my own, and I
    squeezed in a couple of songs about New Year's.

    In the playlist below, I've noted either "Bill" or "Ron" next to the CD's
    that were among our favorites. We do not use the term "BEST" because it
    simply isn't true! All of our lists are simply opinions of the radio host
    so the word "favorite" seems more appropriate for what we do.

    Both Bill and I wish everyone a happy New Year! If you find yourself at
    home on New Year's Eve, I will be hosting a 3 hour "New Year's Eve Hoot" on
    Sirius XM Satellite radio's The Village(Channel 15 on XM, Channel 808 on
    Sirius.) Both Sirius and XM website offer a free 30 day trial for people
    who wish to listen online and sample what they have to offer. I'm very
    excited about hosting this special, which will be heard on New Year's
    Evefrom 9pm until midnight ET, and rebroadcast 3 to 6am ET on New Year's
    Day. Listen in for the New Year themes, a countdown to 12 midnight, New
    Year's Eve greetings from some of your favorite folkies and New Year's
    Resolutions from various folks as well.

    (Tune in to TRADITIONS every Sunday from 3 to 6pm Eastern Time over WFDU-FM
