Compact Rock Week 265 - HAPPY NEW YEAR!

It was yet another excellent week of Compact Rock, but would you expect ANYTHING less? I didn't think so! As we proceed to give you what you need, let your troubles slide away and listen to some great 90's music. We do what we always do here. We give you exactly what you want. One thing does not change, no matter what, and that is that we are getting better every week. Aging like a fine wine. We will continue to give you what you need. Always giving you the Thursday Night Rock Delight! It is the first week of the new year. Another year, more great 90's music. It just gets a little older.
