Holiday Memories – Mid-Valley Mutations

Out With The New, In With The Old.

Out With The New, In With The Old.

(Special Is This Music? coverage for Hogwash while he’s out of town.  Originally broadcast on 28 December 2008 on KPSU.)

This is a 60 Minute audio essay about the Holiday Season, with music, sound effects, voice-overs, and a few commercials. For those of you who have never heard the kind of shows I do, this is an excellent introduction to my radio style, and a wonderful hour of holiday sounds for those New Year’s parties around the corner.  (Token mentions of X-Mas were, sadly, unavoidable.)  Consider this my holiday gift to the city of Portland, and anyone else I forgot to get a gift for.  Sorry.
