Good morning, Richmond and beyond! It's been a long few weeks since I was able to be here to bring you an eclectic mix of tunes. Work travel and leisure travel have kept me away the past couple of weekends, but I'm back now for a good long while. Today I have a bunch of tunes that I'm thankful to have discovered during my lifetime, as well as a bunch of tunes expressing their own gratitude for a variety of things I associate with Turkey Day. Enjoy!
