This Week's Playlist and Podcast

In what has become an annual post-Thanksgiving tradition, Dr. John's Record Shelf was devoted to a set of the host's musical guilty pleasures-- mainly AM pop stuff from the 1970s, as you can see from the playlist below.  If you too feel some nostalgic good will towards that era in music, you can listen to a podcast of the entire program (with some scintillating commentary) by clicking here.
