Accordion Noir radio playlist 2022-12-07: Accordion Noir’s (counts to self…) Sixteenth Anniversary!

Bruce was feeling the weight of the years this week, as you can see from his song selections, not just because we are getting old, but — because Accordion Noir itself is getting old! This week’s episode was the 16th anniversary of its first going on the air back in December of 2006 (and I gotta say, we’d all be feeling a lot older still if we were still broadcasting from 2-3 in the morning like we were at that time!) Still squeezy after all those years. If your Apple or Android (or plain old RSS) podcast subscriptions (strongly recommended!) haven’t alerted you to the episode’s availability yet, you can enjoy listening to it as digital audio courtesy of the Internet Archive. Here’s its playlist:

Thanks for reading us here (and hopefully listening to us, there), but if you find you want more, you can always keep up with us on … well, we’re giving Twitter a break indefinitely in pursuit of sunnier pastures, such as Mastodon at @accordionnoir@zirk.us and @AccordionBruce@mastodon.social, Instagram (@AccordionNoirFest), and Facebook at Accordion Noir fans, the Accordion Noir Festival, and the Vancouver Squeezebox Circle. Cheers & squeeze on!
