FOR THE WEEK OF FEBRUARY 24, 2020

DEAR JERRY: Thankfully, KPTZ-FM radio is also on the Net, making it easy to listen to your wonderful Vinyl Village programs.

On your show last Wednesday (Feb. 19th), you listed 21 songs that have a number in the title, and you played then in numerical order from 1 to 21.

That was a challenge no doubt, but I would like to see if there are songs out there that would cover all the way from 1 to 100.

Oh yes, all I'm asking for is the list. I am not asking you to actually play them on the radio.
—Willie McArthur, Germantown, Tenn.

DEAR WILLIE: Whew! I'm sure it would take five one-hour weekly shows to play them all. Listing them will be much less hard labor.

For some tunes — such as "16" — there are many pop songs to choose from, but I am listing only one of each number. So here we go:
