Bring me your tired, your poor on Blues Moon Radio Tuesday, Jan. 31, 2017

 
 
Greetings from Blues Moon Radio - tonight's theme will be "Bring me your tired, your poor" for tonight's Blues Moon show this Tuesday, Jan. 31, 2017.

We firmly believe that good hearts, a morality of spirit and a belief in the best of mankind will get us through hard times. We believe in love for our fellow man in this country as well as around the world, freedom of religion and our country's constitution as well as the UN's Human Rights compact of 1948 and most importantly that we must honor others and do unto them as we would have them do unto us. 

Tonight's playlist contains selections from this list, and perhaps a few not on it. Our first song is a request from someone who has a message for someone from this week in 1986.

I hope you all find the music helps you get through a Tuesday Bluesday.

 

 

 Because it is our business to support the arts (which are again under fire in this country, among other things) we always love to remind you that there are some great concerts coming your way:
