Episode 54 - Sea World Fire Works Show

The last song of this episode pretty much sums up the whole reason I started this project. Strong White Male comes off a Mecca Normal LP that I bought in the discount bin from Amoeba about 6 months ago. Buried in other records that I got on that trip, I probably didn't listen to it very closely until now. Since recording this episode last week, I've nearly worn song off the disc. Enjoy.

Episode 53 - You can be my email.

I will admit that despite blemishes like Episode 52, the music is getting better, the further we go on and the nearer we get to the end. Even the Greek music played in this episode is pretty great. As for the stories behind the music, they just keep staying the same - self indulgent, vague, bitter and weird.

Episode 52 - Lost Greek "Hits"

This episode consists mainly of Greek pop songs taken from 1 euro LPs that I bought during a 24hr record shop in Athens 2 years ago. I collated this compilation: Lost Greek Hits, 1978 - 1988 and pretty much never revisited most of these records...until now. It turns out that I'm going BACK to Greece this summer and will probably record binge again, since I don't know of any other travel activity. Any suggestions for what I should seek out? Post them in the comments section below!!!
