spooky

morning.

good morning everyone :D

Good morning!

beranek is very cool.

Best of the (BAR-BIA) day, dj maetrix

senor norton tuning in from arizona, where it's 4:30am??? that's crazy

i agree dale, and thank u chris ! i hope u enjoy B-)

Are Adrian Belew (famous) or Ashwin Batish (obscure) on the list? Just wondering!

adrian belew is on the list, yes!! wait that makes me feel so good haha

unfortunately i did not see ashwin batish in our collection...

Yay!

No surprise. I think Ashwin had 1 album. He was a sitar player from North Jersey who made world fusion music. WPRB had his album back in the day

Also, Beefheart!!

beefheart! i just went back and checked for batish - that sounds like something i would like, but it's not on the shelves i'm working through :/ i'll try to find it on streaming so i can check it out later

Ah, Bebop Deluxe. I bought this record in 1979 for $2.99. Been a LONG time since I heard this song. Thanks for unearthing it.

so cool ! i liked them enough to play them twice this morning, i'm glad you enjoyed !

Ah, I missed Jets At Dawn. Another crystalline memory from high school

Back for Week 3 (right?) of the soundtrack to my summer! This series will be one of my favorite things of the Summer of 2025. :-)

awww yay! week 3 indeed! glad ur enjoying this (hopefully) as much as i am!

100% enjoying it! I was so looking forward to it when I sat down at my desk this morning. :-)

Of course, Bay City Rollers' big hit "Saturday Night" is also the theme of Commie Francis's show when she's on Saturday nights!

Esoterica ran an interview with David J of Bauhaus and Love & Rockets last month

aw that's so awesome parrscream :,)

and that's so cool, dad would've loved to have caught that i'm sure!

Great song. Love & Rockets was my first "real" concert back in the late-80s. Caught them again a couple of months ago. Iconic to be hearing Bauhaus on college radio now.

Here's Esoterica's playlist from that show... https://playlists.wprb.com/WPRB/pl/20677882/The-Sonic-Bloom

Thanks, Chris!

If any Blue Orchids vinyl is still in the stacks, I'd like to request them next time. Thanks for considering it

Also, too: Adrian Belew! :)

blue orchids noted B-)
