Afterglow Playlist for December 3, 2009.

Afterglow is where I present an eclectic mix of genres with an emphasis
on Progressive Rock.

If you or your band have a version of the Genesis song, Afterglow, send
it to me and I will consider using it to start the program. If I use
it, the band gets a link on the Afterglow web site!

I also host The AM/FM Show every other Saturday morning and will be
there on Saturday, December 5.

Listen to WMUH on-line now.
