A short little article on the importance of Paul Simon's "Graceland" to my Peace Corps group. It's from the newsletter for Friends Of Lesotho, a group for returned Peace Corps volunteers who worked in Lesotho.

MUSIC: Some playlists for Father's Day


This is one I made about fathers from the music I had on hand. It's on Spotify.

This playlist features songs that remind me of my daughter. It's also on Spotify.

This is one I found on Songza that I liked...

This one is good, but didn't wow me. Still I listened to it quite a bit. It's on Last.fm.

This one wasn't too shabby either. It's on Spotify.

My Internet Radio Stations


This is a fairly good sampling of some of the music I listen to. It's missing a few genres I like - such as cajun. I'll work on that later. But it does contain most of my favorite artists. I tried to steer away from the better known songs to give you a better idea of what kind of music the artists play, but I was limited by the songs the website - Project Playlist - had available. But if you want to get an idea of what I listen to, just hit the play or arrow button. - OlderMusicGeek

The internet station that does the best of playing my music is Last.fm. Here's my station if you're interested.

This website, OlderMusicGeek Radio on Pandora.com, does a fairly decent job of playing what I like, although they do occasionally play stuff I don't care for, but overall they're pretty good.
