2226 UTC: "Poverty Train" by Laura Nyro. Weak interference in the background from peskies or other chatting.

2242 UTC: "Too Long in Exile" by Van Morrison.
2248 UTC: "Big Time Operators" by Van Morrison.
2254 UTC: Host talking about the just-played music, saying he's wrapping up after a couple more songs, and giving ID. That was followed by "We Can Talk" by The Band.
