<< Self Help Radio
It's my birthday week! Every year around the time of my birthday, I play some of my favorite music from a year of my life. The first Self Help Radio that aired during my birthday week - in 2003 in Austin on KOOP - I played music from the year I was born, 1968. I've found myself up to 1987. I don't think this is all my favorite music of the year, but I hope you like it as much as I do - it's like I'm showing you very personal pages of a diary I kept at the age of 19!
