August 18, 2008 Lost & Found Meets Bats in the Belfry Playlist w/ Host Bob Dubrow

I filled in this evening for Mistress Laura, "hostrix" of Bats in the Belfry, and turned her long-running show into a showcase for what might be called "proto" or "pre" Goth by featuring only music from the '60s and '70s. The trick was to choose music of a dark, moody, or ethereal nature. Sure, you may think I was taking liberties with her format...but how free can you be when you're tied to the control board by a slave bracelet chain?
