Tune in at 2330 with UNID Dance tune by female artist.  Followed by Fleetwood Mac "Gold Dust Woman" and "Werewolves of London" by Warren Zevon and "Witchy Woman" by The Eagles.  Peskie QR.

S8 here in N. Alabama w/ lots of music by Black Label Society including one of my favorites by BLS; "Suicide Messiah".  Frequent CW IDs.  Also throwing in a little Zakk Wylde solo-ing ! (including Eruption, and the SSB).  Cover version of the Bill Withers song "Ain't No Sunshine".  Seemed to close out at 0150, after multiple CW IDs.

Thanx for the show.  I have great respect for Zakk Wylde - even beyond the work he did w/ Ozzy !
