!earshot is the National Campus and Community Radio Report, wherein campus and community radio stations from around the country report their top played albums each week.
You can see the work of the diligent CIVL Radio Music Librarians, Becky Makepeace and Alicia Williams here, where all of our charts this year have been archived at www.earshot-online.com. These represent the 30 most played albums on CIVL Radio each week.
