With Lester's and Listeners' Libraries, The week's first Half-Time Hooter, and Record and Album of the Week, all on the Best Time Of The Day Show.

There goes the first Half-Time Hooter of the week, which can only mean more daftness and stupidity is on the way. Alex is still planning The Heavenly Hotel, the hideously expensive hotel where all of your dreams can come true. In the new thread, Plane Burger and Salad, Alex contemplates which buildings would make the nicest meal, and voice-stealing continues in the thread, Voice of Choice. News Hank today is Paul Daniels.
Alex's selections from his CD library today come from Johnny Ray's brother, Jimmie Vaughan, and a track from Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys. A Cocteau Twins track from their 1993 album, Four Calendar Cafe, is your choice from the Listener's Library. There is another track from Album of the Week by Jakob Dylan, Record of the Week by Craig David and another Pause for Thought. Buffoons are go!
