Well, the COVID finally caught up with me this week; so I dug into the archives for a great show from way back on December 19, 2014 where I play tracks from my favorite compilations, reissues and historic recordings of the year 2014; there's lots of music that really stands the test of time on this episode

Downloads for rebroadcast on other non-profit radio stations and as podcasts via the A-Infos Radio Project at radio4all.net.
