Great show. This is why I like college radio. And why I like real DJs, not algorithms feeding me music. But dude! Rule 3 of DJing: don't talk over the music. And especially don't talk over Steve Reichn

HAHAHAHAH Very true on both accounts, I'm glad you like the show and I won't do it again LOL

I first discovered Steve Reich when WXPN (a much more free-form station than it is now) played Drumming, all 75 minutes of it. My roommates and I weren't really paying attention to the radio and it took us a while to notice what was happening. It was a revelation. I went out and bought the 3-LP recording.
