This year continues to be an amazing year for music – and now, all the more so, as a new tune from Phosphorescent was released this morning! Check out “New Birth in New England“: Been waiting five years for new music from Matthew Houck aka Phosphorescent! This upbeat, sunny tune, with a nice little space…
My nomination for the Best Album of the first half of 2018 – The Moondoggies – A Love Sleeps Deep. I’d like to thank God, Serendipity, the Powers of the Universe, our Benevolent Overlords, Lords of Karma or whoever pretends to be running the cosmos for pulling The Moondoggies out of my lifelong dreams of…
Hey! Been a while. Like… almost a month! Two reasons – hadn’t heard anything that made me jump up and shout, “I must shine a musical spotlight on this!” And? I’ve been busy working on this streaming station you need to know about – WBKM.org! Join me live each weekday at Noon (ET), and check…

I love this song… before I get into it, though – in case you haven’t heard, or to remind you – I’m back on the radio! AND you can listen to me all over the world – on WBKM.org! Noon Eastern time every weekday. PLUS I’m helping program the station even when I’m not on…

Whoever it originates with, the idea behind the phrase is that you have to edit yourself.

Hey – do you like these Song of the Day Spotlights? Haven’t seen a whole lot of reaction. I’m not sure I’m going to keep posting them. Please let me know, either with a comment, or by sharing/mentioning on social media, or shooting me an email at glowinthedarkradio -at- gmail -dot- com. There are other…
