There are some tracks from forthcoming albums -- Recess Monkey, Justin Roberts, StarFish, Dream Jam Band, Dirty Sock Funtime Band (who I now think should totally form a supergroup with the Dream Jam Band so they can call themselves the Dirty Dream Sock Jam Funtime Band). Even if you can't listen in the afternoon, the tracks are scattered throughout the day, too.

Radio Playlist: When I Was Your Age (May 2010)
More new (old) music for the Zooglobble Radio Station. This playlist airs middays (West Coast time) and lets me go through some of the songs recorded before the invention of the mp3 -- heck, before CDs and cassettes, even. My goal here for this playlist concept (and I'll occasionally update it in the future) is to include songs originally recorded before 1990. (Did you know they recorded kids music then, too? Amazing!) I think that Trout Fishing in America song is probably newer than that, but I'd been looking for an excuse to include them. So there. If you can't catch it midday, the tracks are scattered throughout the day, too.

Radio Playlist: Kindiegarten - Alphabet
I'm starting to do a better job updating the Zooglobble Radio station -- eventually I'll be updating the station's playlist (or a portion thereof) every week or so. This week's update is the first in a regular series called "Kindiegarten" -- songs about an ostensibly teachable subject, but selected mostly for their tunefulness. The debut playlist features songs about the alphabet, though that definition is stretched a bit to include a few songs that just happen to spell words out and a few songs about books. Yeah, homeschools and preschools should probably use this as music to play during the breaks in their learning.
By the way, you can see when particular programs air by perusing the station schedule here. This particular playlist airs in the morning for an hour, but the songs are also scattered throughout the day.
