Re: AL-TV & AL-Music COMPLETE PLAYLISTS
That's not in dispute. Actually, Dave, your old Trade page was a big source for this list, and some of the info you listed was WAY more unnecessarily detailed...You've got too much free time.
Most of it is, in some form or another. I've posted links to everything played during the first three specials that's online somewhere, and I'll do the same for the rest of the list eventually.So, these are available on YouTube, or what?
