Some of the better tracks I've heard today:

KDHX 88.1 FM

• Nice To See You-The Left Banke (The thoughtful side of late '60s rock, with a Beatles influence and of-its-time backward masking.  Also recommended: "Walk Away Renee" and "She May Call You Up Tonight.")
• Setting Sun-Elephant Stone (Uptempo yet downcast; this tune would segue well with "Pattern Skies" by The Greenhornes.)

WSIE 88.7 FM 

• Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most-Carmen McRae (An effective, contemplative rendition.)
• I Waited For You-Miles Davis (An elegant '50s ballad that I'm surprised I don't hear more often.)

KLOU 103.3 FM

• Your Smiling Face-James Taylor (One of Taylor's few uptempo hits, fit for driving and facing the new day.)
• The Warrior-Scandal featuring Patty Smyth (Speaking of a tune that's fit for driving...)
