folks, a reminder that we are still doing our HELLRAISER fundraiser, and as you can see from the pledge box at the top left of the page I'm only halfway to my goal, and October ends tomorrow. I'm grateful to everyone who has pledged so far, but frankly we here at WFMU need more! Please take a moment to scroll over and click on the "PLEDGE NOW" starburst! Or just click here: pledge.wfmu.org...

The Wallets were led by Steve Kramer, a Mpls artist who moved to NY and played keyboards with James Chance and the Contortions. Went back to Mpls and formed the Wallets, playing accordion. Steve died in 2013. I always thought he was kind of a genius.

@Figgsrock it was the first track on that album, and I've also played it quite a bit. It's my favorite Nick Gilder song!
