Welcome To The North! Show tracks for Sat. Mar. 30/13

I love it when you go record shopping and you get surprised by new releases you didn't know were coming out or cool items on sale. All that happened this week and is represented by the tracks featured tonight. I didn't expect Little Green Cars to go domestic in Canada so fast. I thought for sure that was going to be a mail/internet order title. Then a website put The Music live cd on sale plus Carter USM and Happy Mondays live reunion cds. There was so much more like Cast, The Charlatans and P.I.L. but I'm not made of money so I had to get out before I blew my retirement fund...lol. I've been on a Music kick all week long, so welcome to the north - it's grim up here!

Talking Loud And Clear! Show tracks for Sat. Mar. 23/13

"What happened to the voices of dissent? Getting rich I guess" Bobby Gillespie
No, I don't think they're getting rich but being stifled by the people who are afraid to take chances.
Dissenters and people taking chances, pushing the envelope are being marginalized as trouble makers and extremists.
Thankfully people like Bobby Gillespie and Savages are out there pushing back.
I left Savages' new single out of the show because I feared people would focus on the words "slut"
and "fuck" and not listen to the message of the song. That's why it's being included here.
Don't like the message or the visuals close the page and move on!
