Amazing playlist. Clearly you had my dorm room bugged back in 1993 and took inspiration from what you heard. But I forgive the intrusion. ;-)
I have a request for next week’s show, Joy Division “Something Must Break.” Have a good week!
Great plsylist tonight, love the Jazz Butcher and the live Killing Joke and The The, and the always welcome shoegaze block featuring one of my favorite MBV songs. Hearing “Three Girl Rhumba” also brought back memories of hearing Elastica’s “Connection” circa 1994 and thinking it sounded very familiar. Keep up the good work!
