There’s only one week left to vote in the final round of the Grooveyard Great 88. In this round, vote for your favorites from three time periods–1957 and earlier, 1958-60 and 1961-63. We’ll combine the three surveys and count down your 88 favorites in a five-hour edition of The Grooveyard at a special day and time–Friday, December 26 at 7 PM. (We’re taking Christmas night off.) Details and links to the three surveys are available here.
And join us each Thursday on…
