    Dear David:

    I'm usually putting the kids to bed at 7pm on Sunday nights, but tonight my wife has taken them upstate for a family visit. So although I've been listening to the news and music on WNYC for ages, this is the first time I have caught your show. Thank You! LOVED the first 4 songs of tonight's show (5/18). I am becoming a first time member tonight because of your music.

    Thanks again,

    Joel Priest

    Rarely catch your show but loved tonight's show so far. I came to the website looking for name of artist for first ~4 songs. Do you publish play list or artists?

    I want to echo Joel Priest's statement. I caught your show from the beginning tonight. Man, it was exciting. I love the range of music that the show provides. Only wish you could podcast the show so I could take it with me everywhere! Keep up the great work and I'll stay tuned in the future.

    The show is always good, but tonight's is especially terrific. How lovely that you'll post the play list -- that will be very welcome. And I appreciate your mention of Ed Askew, as I knew I first heard him on WNYC some years, but forgot on which show; I was able to locate his CD in Germany, and then later found copies here in the

    US. Thanks for the introductions to so many interesting, fine musicians!
