I realize that the solstice is still three weeks away, but I started my Summer of History posts already and decided to make a special Five on Friday banner.
Why, you ask.
Because, I reply. I thought it might be fun to tie some of my FoF Sets to a history essay for that week. And since this week I wrote about the Battle of Midway, my Set features music you would have heard on the radio in 1942.
Ain't I clever?
Regrettably, Playlist.com didn't allow me to turn off the autostart this week. Why does that matter, you ask.
Because, I reply. Maybe you're sneaking a peek at the Set at the office and you're not supposed to. It's a dead give-a-way that you're doing something naughty if the music suddenly starts blaring. Or maybe you just got the baby to stop crying and settle down for a nap...you definitely don't need the music sounding off at an unexpected volume. Or maybe you just want the choice whether to listen or not.
What?
Well, of course I know you want to listen! Just maybe all you have time for right now is to check in and see what's on the menu.
I am ever solicitous of your freedom to choose whether to listen now, later, or not at all! So let's go to the video for Set 71!
