Unfortunately, Hurricane Irene breached my basement and we've spent the past few days scrambling to get everything fixed, so there's no show this week. But next week I'll be back with a storm-themed show!
For those of you who might have missed it, I re-present one of my favorite shows - Post Punk Peel Primer, dedicated to the late great John Peel. You can download this podcast by clicking here.

Wire covers show
This week's show is one giant birthday present to my favorite listener! Her favorite band (and one of mine) is Wire and I scoured the usual sources to find unusual covers. I couldn't quite find 2 hours of interesting covers without repeating too many songs so I chose my favorites off the wonderful _Whore_ compilation to close out the show. Enjoy!

Singled Out: XTC

No, not the blues legend, but a legend nonetheless for his work with such stalwarts as Smegabucks, Abunai! and Joe Turner & The Seven Levels. Listen to the greatness that is Andy Partridge, Colin Moulding & Co. and insightful dialogue!
