2240 UTC "Baker Street"-Gerry Rafferty (Just above the noise floor here with good audio at peaks)
2241 UTC OM?, into "Caravan"-Van Morrison segue into "American Girl"-Tom Petty & Heartbreakers
2246 UTC "Whole Lotta Love"-Led Zeppelin (Signal is at noise level now with strong peskie QRM bleeding over from LSB)
2252 UTC OM?,...(I can hear bits of music in the noise but can't make out the song...shazam isn't working in the noise either)
2257 UTC OM with ID and chatting, into "Why Can't We Be Friends"-Smash Mouth
2302 UTC Hmmm...sounds like a peskie on USB also...
2304 UTC Signal up just a bit with "The Angels Want to Wear My Red Shoes"-Elvis Costello
2309 UTC "Ride Captain Ride"-Blues Image
2312 UTC OM and some instrumental music, then possibly OFF at 2313 UTC

A new one for me also! Thanks WQLD! Tough copy with the peskies and the noise, but able to pull some details out of the noise. I was recording if you are interested!  8)
