Star Time #201: Some of This and Some of That
This episode is sort of a continuation of episode #200 in which I played some of my all-time favorite Star Time tracks. Episode #201 is the same, but focuses exclusively on female artists in honor of Women's History Month. There are quite a few songs on this playlist that are in the entirely conceptual Star Time Hall Of Fame: Dee Dee Sharp's "Ride!", Mary Jane Hooper's "I've Got Reasons," Ann Alford's "Got to Get Me a Job," Yvonne Fair's "It Should Have Been Me." I like. I hope you like too.
