Radio Paradise

DQ reader Matt Kreuch (who, along with his brother Steven, are The Official Brothers of Dubious Quality) sent in a follow-up to the Erin Bode post yesterday where I mentioned Pandora. He said I would really like Radio Paradise, and he was right.

Those links take you to a dedicated page on the site for each song, and there is a ton of additional information on the artist as well as links to purchase the song (or CD). It's all totally outstanding, and I've really enjoyed listening this afternoon.

If you want to check it out, then go here, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did (do).
