Ah, this trip down amnesia lane made me wonder what's up with my college radio station, which went internet-only a year or two ago.
They're still going strong, and have a new streaming show: WOXY Vintage -- "Welcome to WOXY Vintage, the first new 24/7 streaming channel from WOXY.com dedicated to the history of Modern Rock, Alternative and Punk music. You'll hear nearly 30 years of adventurous, innovative and influential music from The Velvet Underground, The Clash, Talking Heads, The Smiths, Depeche Mode and much more. Consider it your Modern Rock primer."
Damn, I loved that station.
Ooh, that sounds great! A friend of mine at work listens to WOXY online almost every day. This one sounds like it's right up my alley.
I worked for my college station. I miss KWRS.
I love every Beach Boys song mentioned. Other glimpses at ineffable perfection: "Surfer Girl," "'Til I Die," "Add Some Music To Your Day," "You Still Believe In Me," and "Surf's Up."
even the new Charlotte Church.
"Crazy Chick" rocks all socks.
"Beach State Rocking" - Game Theory
Where did you get
that?
(Feeling all validated being backed up by Corwood) And Dylan is right; I love "God Only Knows" but I don't think of it as the kind of song one drives down the road playing, and that is part of what makes Pop Perfect.
High school: Nirvana and the Chili Peppers "Blood Sugar Sex Magik"
I was still in the closet about the funk. What a waste(not the Cobain or RHCP...that such a primal preference ever felt embarrassing to me.)
More Perfect Pop: "Mendocino" by the Sir Douglas Quintet.
Where life's such a groove, you'll blow your mind in the morning. Yes, indeed. Did you say you have an emusic account? I think my favorite emusic download in the year or so I've had it is Doug Sahm's last album, The Return of Wayne Douglas. It's way more country than SDQ, but unmistakably Doug. Really warm, funny, big-hearted -- a fine way to go out, R.I.P. I don't like the Dylan cover, but other than that I like everything about it.
Corwood, my sister sent me a "save Frances Newton" petition. I'm anti-death penalty, but know nothing about the case & the petition is more than light on details. I gotta get outta here, but gimme a quick yea or nay on whether I should sign. Thanks.
I don't know nothin' about it, either, but I'm opposed to the death penalty on principle, so I say sign it.
"Beach State Rocking" - Game Theory
Where did you get that?
I've got it on Tinkers To Evers to Chance. I could load it on Buffistarawk if you need/want it.
You do know that Scott Miller played a promotional event for my last book, right? After we featured both Loud Family and Game Theory records in the book.
I got to request "Regenisraen" - gorgeous.
