Here's the playlist from our special Studebaker Xmas Collection:

There’s a whole world of great music out there that just doesn’t fit the album rock format of The Splendid Turntable. I’ll get a chance to share some of that with you on The Studebaker Collection. One show might focus on alternative, another on roots or funk, other times maybe more mainstream ...

Today's edition of The Studebaker Collection was our last show until after the New Year. If you missed the special Studebaker Xmas Collection, it's here for download or playback. See ya on January 6 when The Splendid Turntable returns!

We are sorry to announce that we will be stopping programming for a portion of winter break due to the college closing for the holidays. This was a really tough decision, and we send you all love and hugs this holiday season! WQFS will be back shortly!! Tune back in on January 2nd!

Where else would you ever hear Audio Adrenaline, The Rubber Band, Booker T. & the M.G.s, Mel Torme, Lake Street Dive, Khruangbin, Chet Atkins, Yogi Yorgesson, Seymour Swine, The Monkees, Norah Jones, and The Flaming Lips, all in the span of one Christmas show? Only on The Studebaker Xmas Collection, naturally.

And that's not even half of the artists Studebaker has planned. How much more eclectic could it be? Only way to find out is to tune in to WQFS Guilford College Radio on Wednesday, Dec 18, 10am,-noon EST. HO HO HO.

"What was that song again?" Just click the playlist from this morning's show:

The Splendid Turntable transports you back to the sound and spirit of album rock radio that disrupted the airwaves in the 60s and 70s when turntables were king. In that spirit, you'll also hear some of the best alternative/indie music being made today, including a lot of NC artists. You know…hippi...

It's National Chocolate Covered Anything Day, but we don't recommend dipping your device in chocolate while you listen to the playback of today's episode of The Splendid Turntable. Just sayin'.

It's my two- year anniversary here at WQFS. I'm grateful you've let me stick around this long. Think I'm finally starting to figure this thing out.

Happy Stupid Toy Day! (not kidding). What could be any dumber than Mr. Microphone from the 70s? I had some stupid toys in my day, but that wasn't one of them, thank goodness.

There’s splendid tunes on the way - the sound and spirit of FM album rock radio along with the best blues, alt and indie music being made today, The Splendid Turntable hits the airwaves tomorrow morning (Dec 16) on WQFS Guilford College Radio. Listen from 8-10am EST. We’ve got music from Los Lonely Boys, Eagles, The Pretty Reckless, The Beatles, The Who, and more. How Blue Can You Get will throw some Grammy-level blues on you, and 50 in ’24 will transport you to 1974 for tunes by MTB, Linda Ronstadt, and George Harrison.
Plus, new tracks from Mars FM, Devon Allman, Mosant, Suki Waterhouse, The Heavy Heavy, and more.

2 SHOWS NEXT WEEK:
1) The Splendid Turntable airs Monday morning (Dec 16) with the sound and spirit of album rock radio from the days when turntables ruled the airwaves. And we’ll keep spotlighting Grammy nominees in categories that don't get the attention they deserve.

2) The Studebaker Collection, Christmas edition, airs Wednesday, Dec 18. We guarantee it’ll be different from what you might hear on any Christmas station up the dial.

Tune in to WQFS Guilford College Radio, your only alternative!
