- Somewhere In Time-David Mallett (The heartfelt spirit of this acoustic number's lyrics and vocals brings "The Thanksgiving Song" by Fred Holstein to mind.)
- Turtle Dove-Dori Freeman (This new release blends elements of '50s ballads and Linda Ronstadt's vocals appealingly.)
- When I Woke-Beth Bombara (This St. Louis artist's tune, released in March, made an immediate impression on me; its tone and energy remind me of Maia Sharp's "Something Wild.")
- Living For The City-Ramsey Lewis (A smooth instrumental rendition of the Stevie Wonder standout.)
- You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go-Madeleine Peyroux (Shawn Colvin's version of this Bob Dylan tune is still my favorite, but Peyroux's breathy alto vocals and nightclub jazz arrangement serve the tune well.)
- Better-Regina Spektor (I admire the protagonist's resolve to help someone whom she might not be able to reach.)
- I Apologize-Anita Baker (A somewhat underrated low-key track of Baker's, augmented by Take 6's strong backing vocals. In retrospect, this was one of her more appealing tunes played on KNJZ in 1994.)
