Groundhog Playlist

Hello my dreamy friends. I am overwhelmed by work and, rather than find a substitute deejay for my show, I thought I'd just try to take last week's records, rearrange them, choose new songs, and make a new show out of it. I also brought in a few others and left off some I'd played last week. It was a fun challenge and really did leave me some extra time to devote to my clients this week. Hope you enjoy it.
