With Chanukah only a few days away, we devoted the middle of the show to that Jewish holiday, the beginning of our programming of holiday music which will extend through the New Year. Sandwiched around the Chanukah Party were new releases from Kate MacLeod and Richard Shindell and music from Keith Murphy and Becky Tracy who are performing in our broadcast area as well as a brief stroll down memory lane with Donna Long and Brendan Mulvihill. Donna was in town last week with Cherish The Ladies.
