When listening to WUMB, which do you prefer?
TOP 10/100 COUNTDOWNS
Top 100 2006
Who is on your Ipod?
Yes - we had this same theme last year -- but everyone is still iPod crazy these days! So we asked our listeners again: what artists top their iPod playlist? Imagine you could fit the music of only 10 artist (folk - or any genre) on your iPod . . . who would they be?
This list represents the responses of over 500 WUMB listeners from 39 states and several countries including England, Germany, three Canadian provinces, The Netherlands, Switzerland, Australia and more. Ballots were submitted from July 1 - November 6, 2006.
We've also listed performers #101 to #120, in case you wanted to see who "just missed" being included in the Top 100.
