It's not that bad here. Yet. |
This last regular This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio of 2017 served up new music from Chris Richards & the Subtractions, Ken Sharp, Wayne James & the List of Names, and The JAC, and mixed it all with prized selections from This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio, Volume 4 (the best compilation CD of the year) and other gems from the past and the present. Was 2017 the best of times and the worst of times? Yeah. It was just '17. If you know what I mean.
