I made a bad goof at the beginning. Extraordinary Form should have said "Christ the King" and not "24th Sunday after Pentecost". Sorry 'bout that!
Anyhoo, today we present a history of the Music Issue from the early 1980's on.  We also review the 2009 Music Issue.  This installment: hymns 301-374.  We also introduce Poncho O'Malley and Zeke the Porch Monkey (check out his really cool commercial). Oh, and did you know that I am a bibliophobe?
Also, I have a question for you.  Would you program Eagle's Wings at a Latin Mass?

Sorry for the delay. This really was supposed to be uploaded by Wednesday, but that didn't happen. I didn't get home till 11:15 Tuesday night, 10:15 Friday night, etc. So you are really hearing what was supposed to go up three days ago. Enjoy anyways!
Today we discuss how you can still keep a good traditional program while using a pew book whose musical content is mostly "contemporary".  We also blab (once again) about that so-called (very much dreaded, mind you) "gathering song".

CVA Suggestion Box: Twenty-Fifth Sunday of Ordinary Time.  More suggestions: CanticaNOVA Planning Pages for Ordinary Time XXV.
