Playlist For Sunday, March 18, 2018: Send us your nickels, your dimes, your pennies yearning to...be rolled!

Yes, it's that time of year again, 2 on the Aisle fans: Pledge Drive time in the Jazz 90.1 corral! So expect lots of universally-loved Broadway tunes coming your way this Sunday, like the Guys and the Dolls and the Dollys and that Man from La Mancha...all crowded in together with requests and pleads and begging for dough! How I will fit in all said great music AND said great amounts of neediness in 2 short hours, I have no clue. But Broadway has magical powers, right?...so maybe I'll just shut my eyes, push buttons, lean in (to the mic) and wave my wand!

Jazz 90.1 is a pretty magical place itself. A tiny little station supported solely by its listeners, staffed with volunteers, no safety net, and yet it's been broadcasting for almost 45 years. It's like that diner down the road, that despite the McDonald's and the Olive Gardens and the Dominoes Pizzas, still makes the best cheese fries and hot fudge sundaes and everybody comes! The only problem is most of those diners died. We didn't. That's because of you and these marvelous Broadway fries!

So call me up on Sunday! Help the little radio station that could. And does. And will.
