Twenty years of dusty fingers, frayed cuticles, & upper respiratory infections — from record digging and DJing around the globe — coalesces into a 2-hour journey through Rhythm & Blues, Soul, Funk, Jazz, Blues, Latin, Rock & Roll, and all points in between. Your speakers will be head-nodding, toe-tapping & even two-stepping to this vintage 45rpm party in no time. Hear favorite songs you didn't know were your favorites, aural treats & record-world problems from the vinyl side of life.

I loathe the little git Coghlan, but that move is brilliant.
Uncle Michael:
That he did it to Molina makes it so, so sweet.
Uncle Michael:

Doug Schulkind:
I agree on the de-pantsing of Molina. But Coghlan has injured at least two players on teams I root for. His takeout slide on the Pirates' Jung Ho Kang was vicious and deserved suspension.
