Great line-up of tunes!! Wish I had listened!
How weird! I hadn’t thought of Red Flag in forever, but yesterday afternoon they popped up on my mp3 player and I ended up listening to the entire “Naive Art.” Later the same day, they appeared on your show. Weird!
Wooowwww, really magnificent line-up of tunes.
Prefab Sprout, “Ride” , one of the best songs I ever heared.
