In Hour 1 alone, we'll be visiting Muscle Shoals, Chicago, Berlin, Queens, Louisiana, France, Belgium, Jamaica, and the UK (which has to be some kind of record). After THAT? Theme time. This week's theme is CRYPTOZOOLOGY: 2 hours of tunes about mythical beasts and mysterious critters from all over the map. Join the expedition. We'll leave the door unloched for you. Sorry- that was the best I could come up with at the moment.
