Hello,
There is no theme, no rhyme or reason to the order of my playlist for Sunday, November 8. I looked at a lot of music in my library and just chose one at a time, thinking that they would fit together nicely. I'd like for you to join me around the tree to see what you think. I've lined up some wonderful musicians and songwriters to entertain us. Here's the list, which includes John Lennon, who appears in this week's sneak peek playlist video performing "Imagine," with lyrics that are both timely and timeless.
