Listening back on the recording this morning...definitely K-TEL Radio! Great playlist! Were all these songs from those K-TEL compilation LP's? I think I have a couple of those kicking around in the basement. I'm pretty sure there is an old Veg-A Matic stashed away too! LMAO! Any chance of an eQSL?  :)
