Now that spring has officially arrived, I can officially host one of my most requested annual programs: the '60s Sunshine Pop show. It's a perfect soundtrack to welcome in the bright blue skies and warmer temps that'll be coming our way sooner than later. If you want to tune in to the program with an old transistor radio that night, even better.
