Happy Birthday

My annual birthday show, only without some of my planned music (that will come next week). But I still have some nice stuff in here

Composer's name is listed where notable (i.e. Classical Performance, Jazz Performance).

For more information on any of the rock, pop and Jazz music featured on this program, I frequently utilize AllMusic , an excellent free database holding a huge plethora of information about music and the artists that make it.
