Five standout tunes heard today:
KDHX 88.1 FM
- Twine Time-Alvin Cash & The Crawlers (Forthright saxophone and rhythm section playing and recurring vocal punctuation make this 1965 hit a catchy R&B dance number.)

KCLC 89.1 FM
- Alapathy-Fenne Lily (Appealingly breathy, free-spirited vocals over lively guitar strumming; although these songs weren't paired together on the radio, the tune's energy segues well with...)
- The Adults Are Talking-The Strokes (...this track.)
