Widge’s Sonic Emporium – After Hours

Episode 1
“The Night is My Friend”

Sorry this is late…I was on time with everything for 32 Days and then there was a family health crisis and a. house crisis. They are both being worked on. But that cost me 3-4 days, which is why everything here at the end of October is late. Sorry about that.

Please note: this differs from a regular Sonic Emporium show in that some of the lyrics are not, shall we say, necessarily family friendly.

Welcome. Here are what passes for show notes. The reason the playlist is in the format you find it is because I really need a life. The very overwrought explanation can be found here.

Format is:
Artist/Band Name – “Song Name” – Album Name – (Band’s/Artist’s Country of Origin, Year of Song’s Original Release)

Now with Bandcamp links (where available), and if they’re not, I include Amazon links.
