Week of December 1st

This week’s show was entitled Daydream. I had a full vision for it, but sometimes, your radio show can’t rule your life; you have to entertain the variety of people that actually give your life its color and relevance. As a result, I couldn’t actually articulate the idea that I had. It was fine as a show, but it wasn’t everything that I think it really could have been. 

chromatics - i want your love - night drive

desire - under my spell - II

craft spells - after the moment - idle labor

brilliant colors - round your way - again and again

beat happening - fortune cookie prize - dreamy

the go-betweens - to reach me - liberty belle and the black diamond express

veronica falls - all eyes on us - veronica falls

girls names - no more words - dead to me

heavenly - wrap my arms around him - heavenly vs satan

the dolly mixture - in your eyes - demonstration tapes
