January 27, 2008 WHPK FRIDAY NIGHT FOCUS SHOW: BEST OF '07/NEW FOR '08 My Friday Focus show wound its way thru 2007 highlights (some big names/albums; other tunes fairly personal to me and therefore moot as any kind of "best of.") I also touched on some interesting tidbits from this still-young new year. Also tried to tickle the listeners with a few exclusives from upcoming albums.
