I’m going to pump everyone up this morning with this upbeat mix of music:
Henry Mancini - Send In The Clowns
Judy Collins - Send In The Clowns
James Horner - Growing Old (Cocoon: The Return)
James Horner - After Antietam (Glory)
Alan Silvestri - Jenny’s Grave (Forrest Gump)
Annie Lennox - The Saddest Song I’ve Got
Fisher - I Will Love […]
G o o g l e ad revenues have actually been tangible in March, for the first time in a very long time. By “tangible”, I mean that they actually make a reasonable dent in my costs, the most significant of which being stream hosting. So thank you, listeners, for your continued support.
I’ve been […]
There was just a two-hour outage, which I struggled to fix remotely because my machine that hosts my music had frozen up. Perhaps a ‘J’ request was the culprit; I have been wondering if a particular track has caused the recurring problem.
This is all unfortunate, because at the time of the outage, all 50 […]
I have a ton of stuff from movie score composers James Horner, James Newton Howard, and John Williams. Even though it will seem as if I’m overloading the playlist with too much movie score music, I really am trying to be subdued in how much I add. However, I have to add basically the entire […]
I wish I could configure the Requester not to accept requests from the same artist too many times in a row, but I cannot. I happen to be enjoying listening to an hour of Howard Shore’s LOTR scores this morning, but I wonder if others are tuning out.
On the subject of requests, I have learned […]
Thanks to Steve W. for letting me know about the Requester not working correctly. I think I’ve just fixed that. Every time I add more songs, I need to restart the Requester, and I don’t always do this precisely right, thus the wrong songs get played. Email me at toastieradio at gmail or AIM me […]
A few years ago, I’d only have about 400 songs in the playlist. A few months ago, before I started created the “new” playlist, I had about 750 songs. Now, I’ve only gone through letters A through E of my music files, and the new playlist has 534 songs, so it should grow to around […]

I’ve added C’s to the playlist. I admit that it’s too much Celine Dion. But once the other 23 letters of the alphabet are processed, it won’t be so bad, I promise. (I realize there are those who love Celine and those who run from the room screaming at the sound of her voice).
I’m going […]
The much-promised playlist overhaul is finally underway in a tangible way. By the time I’m done, the number of unique selections in the playlist should have at least doubled, from around 700 to probably around 1500. For now, I’ve just gotten through the A’s and the B’s, which amounts to 279 unique selections.
I thought […]
