Vinyl Christmas is Here!

 It is time for our 10th annual Vinyl Christmas!!!  We started doing this back in 2012 -- playing songs on original vinyl from Christmases past. If you grew up in the 70s and 80s, this is what you remember. 

We have selections from the compilations that were popular -- remember those from Goodyear and True Value? We have John Denver and the Muppets. We have the Carpenters. Bing. Frank. And many more!

Join us from December 20 - 27th for some of the best christmas music around -- just as you remember. 

Halloween on Vinyl Voyage Radio!

It's Halloween -- and you know what that means! If you've been listening to Vinyl Voyage at all, you know Halloween is one of our favorite holidays! And we have Halloween music and specials in store for today. And J-Bones is back, with some of his best Halloween mixes.

It's that time of the year!

JB is back with a new Halloween Mix! This time, he brings us songs about Monsters. You'll hear tunes featuring Dracula. Tunes about the Invisible Man. Werewolves. Godzilla. And much more.

Plus, Count Chocula and Frankenberry, too!

Can't wait? Listen to it on demand via our Mixcloud channel or below. Check out his other past mixes as well.

Song of the Week -- The Buggs (Or is it?)

Got a great retro album on the platter. This album was one of several sent to us by JB from F This Movie. He regularly contributes Halloween playlists to this station.  This is one of the many "Beatles-sound-alike" albums that cashed in on the Beatlemania craze. 

And this one has a great backstory.

Tune in at 11am and 11pm Wednesday July 6 -- and then throughout the week for  not one --- BUT TWO TRACKS from this great, retro album.

Betty Everett --- the Song of the Week

Song of the Week: Adele

 Adele's 4th album, 30, is an amazing album, heartfelt and authentic. It is her most mature outing yet, and it was hard to choose a song for this song of the week. But we did!
