Chris Isaak’s vocal style reminds me of the late Roy Orbison. Both are easy to listen to and have a bit of “western” sound as in country/western, only better.
This was a fantastic program
I would love to download it to a playlist
The playlist is right in the post you commented on: https://echoes.org/2024/07/09/tuesday-july-9-2024-wicked-game-turns-35-2/
If you mean the actual music, sorry, but that would be illegal for us to set-up for downloads.
Sorry to hear about that but thank you for putting together such (another) great program
