Starting with the 70s -- it could be a classic (or obscure) punk rocker, a forgotten disco diva, a long-unheard hit record, or none of these. What happens next depends on what's in the WFMU new bin and whether I remember my records from home. Tune in and find out! You'll even hear a live band once in a while.

Evan you made my jaw drop. I thought I'd never hear Long Away from Queen's A Day at the Races unless I bothered to buy the album again. I live in Toronto Canada and I have yet to see a record store where the only Queen albums in the bins are Greatest Hits and maybe A Night At The Opera. Maybe my age is showing but I find that scary. Thanks for making my evening,
Richard

I went to my class reunion. It was stupid. Really stupid.

Ooh-Fiddle! It's so nice to hear "Crumbs!" uttered on the radio. Kids these days, with their thinking I'm really really old for wielding the epithet, and then making with the Penfold references to assuage their wrinkled-brow consternation. Feh.

Evan, will you spin at my bar mitzvah, please?
Mostly punk, but something for the grandparents too.

I'm late to what looks like quite a party, btw, because I was catching up with last night's The Wire. Holy crap. I mean, of course every single scene of every episode is like a master's class in storytelling, with the lyrical acting and all, but sheesh.

thank you, Frenchie!
Monkey - maybe you can just play one of my archives... that would meet your criteria, right?
Jessica, I am still reeling from that WIre episode. I need to watch it again (as is usually the case).

oh, and Montreal - thanks for your comment, I will have to check that out.

Mitch Easter is sounding like Phil Judd, of The Swingers.

The Swingers of "Counting The Beat" fame? Hmm, I'll have to look into that.
Me, I prefer Phil Rudd, of AC/DC.
