Today's show went much smoother, though I almost didn't get into the station! I'm still waiting for my access card. Ah, academia... The idea today was to present a broad overview of my tastes and highlight favorite tracks from the past 40 years of underground rock. It's almost arbitrary picking 7 songs to represent an entire decade! Of course, 'rock' leaves out swing, funk, country and experimental stuff I like.
You can hear the show by request - leave me a comment.
