Sometimes the best moments of inspiration come at the last possible time. I had ideas for the final shows of 2011, but nothing for the first week of December. I bounced ideas around in my head for days. Possible bands, genres or time periods to feature. No success and then at the last minute, I had it, a new feature. The Fuzz Factory By The Numbers Special. Turns out I discovered another gold mine. Another successful feature that I will definitely have again next year. There is so much good rock & roll music that use the numbers of our everyday lives. By the way – those remaining ideas for upcoming shows will be a new Fuzz Rock special and a new Cover Song Spectacular.

Tonight’s feature also brought out some listener requests which always makes me happy. We had a requested songs (*) for listeners in Atlanta, Kansas City and Brooklyn.

Look at the playlist – see that the all the fantastic rock & roll this week was done – by the numbers.  Click the link at the bottom to listen to the Fuzz Factory By Numbers Special podcast for a limited time. Listen, rock out.
