PLAYLIST for DECEMBER 31, 2008

BEST OF 2008:

These are my ten favourite CDs of 2008. Two were recorded in the ’fifties,
three in the ‘sixties, one in the ‘seventies, one in the ‘eighties, two in 2006
and one earlier this year.

We’ll also pause for a moment to hear a cut by Mike Essoudry’s Octet, who are
playing at the NAC Fourth Stage on Saturday January 10.
