A few months ago when I started this year’s Philbys (My award for brilliant musical achievement!), the station was having some technical difficulties and the chance of hearing the earliest entries was missing in action.
Several people were disappointed that they couldn’t hear it, and asked if it would ever be repeated. I told them, “Uh…maybe?”
Well, that moment has finally arrived for the largest Philby Countdown Show ever on Wednesday’s “Theme Attic” with your host Phil Maq from 12PM-4PM EDT!!!
When I was a kid, one of my favorite times of the year was not for all of the gifts that could be given and received. It was for the yearly countdowns to see where all of the music would land on the lists! And the stations would often play them continuously!
I would sit there listening with my pen and paper to write down the songs in order just in case I never got a copy of the official guide.
Wednesday’s “Theme Attic gets as close to that experience than it ever has!
I countdown the Philby Hot 100 Songs of 2021 from #100-#50!!!
