As the year winds down and we approach a better one, it’s time to think about our favorite music of 2020.
For the past few years we at KXSF have selected the KXSF Top 102.5 songs of the year as chosen by our volunteers. And we’ve featured a live countdown of said tracks during the last few weeks of the year. We intend to do the same this year. However, this time, given the shocking year we’ve all experienced, and for your listening pleasure, we have also compiled our DJs’ top albums, songs, reissues and then some, from 2020…
Enjoy ~ From all of us at KXSF.
