KAFM (Grand Junction, CO)
- Such A Night-Dr. John (A fun romp of a tune for piano and voice.)
- No Road Is The Right Road-Christine Perfect (Perfect, later to be known as Fleetwood Mac's Christine McVie, sings these downcast lyrics about a breakup compellingly.)
- Rule The World-Michael Kiwanuka (Lyrically and vocally impressive, with a trippy guitar part; this new, strong track uses some of the chords from Morris Albert's "Feelings" and expands on them.)
- Lime Habit-Polica (Hypnotic vocals over a techno beat; another highlight of 2016.)
- Baltimore-Roseanna Vitro (Vitro takes Randy Newman's bleak tale of tough living, smooths it over, and makes it more lush. I would never have imagined she'd cover this tune, but she sings it well.)
- Glory Of Love (Alternate Take)-Lou Donaldson (Captivating sax with a bounce over a cool walking bass line and able piano support.)
