Program December 30, 2015: Best of the Rest of 2015

Global A Go-Go closes the books on 2015 with another look at the year in review.  This week, the focus is on individual songs: my favorite singles of the year, top tracks from albums that didn't quite make my best-of lists, and great songs hidden on otherwise forgettable long-players.

I've said it before, I'll say it again: we're once again living in a singles era.  So folks like me who recap their favorite recordings by focusing solely on albums (as I did on my last two shows) are missing some big pieces.  This week's show is designed to remedy that flaw -- I think you'll hear just as much great music this week as you did on my previous two best-of-2015 recaps.

Bonne annee et bonne sante!
