Episode 25


Episode 25

I kicked the show off this week with my favorite Ramones song, and it's not even one from their debut or Rocket to Russia, it's from 1980's End of the Century, arguably the last great LP. As hard as it would be to cover the Ramones' best track and still be awesome, KISS pulled it off. Of all bands, KISS. Kudos.


The Brass have a new EP, Homosapien available through Quote Unquote Records, which is a great label, all of its releases are donation based. So you can download the ep immediately for whatever price you think it's worth and then order the 7" as well.

I learned about Pete Seeger's classic "Waist Deep In the Big Muddy" just this week actually, and in class to boot. It's a great haunting song and it's actually one of the reasons that the Smother Brothers Comedy Hour was cancelled in 1969. Damn those government critics for not pandering to CBS's demands.


The show dates I mentioned on the show for NC shows are as follows:

Double Negative 11/13 - The Milestone, Charlotte NC

























Raein 12/1 - Lunchbox Records - Charlotte, NC
