Ear Candy for Insomniacs

For the curious, this page contains a complete set of playlists for ECI—minus distracting commentary or your having to click through archived postings. If you want to see whether something has ever been played on the show (as I often do) or learn how often I program certain artists, styles, etc., this is the place to be. Enjoy ... perhaps.
