96.7 Merle makes a big deal out of playing the songs other country stations seem to be missing these days.  With such a rich variety of artists and forgotten favorites as well as what ya’ll call “only the new country you love,” what do you like about mixing all these songs and artist on the radio? 

Variety is the spice of life!
