Wednesday Breakfast Blend presents:

Women of Note

Today’s show takes inspiration from NPR’s 150 Greatest Albums Made By Women, which is a great read. This is the first list of its kind I’ve ever seen, and I’ve read (and written) a LOT of lists. We’re listening to some of the soul singers on the list — women you’ve heard before, but maybe you’ll hear with a little more appreciation.

Also, join me on the show’s Facebook page.
