Songs that made the phones ring… (1st half 2010)

 

Songs that made the phones ring — an idea inspired by the late record man Joel Dorn — is our quarterly Ancient Future radio listing of selections that made the telephones ring at WPFW.  At WPFW we have an open policy towards soliciting listener feedback; during our various programs listeners are free to call and inquire about the music or issues of the day.  What better way to gauge listener interests?  This unscientific barometer is a true measuring stick of listener tastes and what excites our listeners.  (Listed in no particular order.)

Here are the Songs that made the phones ring for the Ancient Future radio program, 1st half of 2010.  (Please note that henceforth Ancient Future weekly radio show playlists are now posted exclusively at www.wpfw.org
