"Coney Island Winter" Garland Jeffreys + IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!

It's time to revolutionize SOTD! Today begins a gradual move away from a blog format and toward the simplistic, convenient-for-all form of a Spotify playlist. For those who haven't ventured into the world of Spotify, it's time to leave the nest. Below are links to where you can download Spotify, and once installed, where you can link to the SOTD playlist. Once you've opened the playlist in Spotify click "subscribe" near the top and you will from then on be able to see and play the songs of the day by just accessing Spotify! Don't worry, to accommodate for those who are slow, I won't quit posting in blog format until my page hits peter out. I'll also give regular reminders to make the switch and a final notice. Thanks for your cooperation! I think you'll be pleased with the switch.
