This week I start with a blurb where C.C. Chapman of Accident Hash explains why his show will always have approximately 250 times the number of listeners mine has.

I really love the tracks this week. I like when the third set goes all jazzy with Baikonour and Nostalgia 77, I love the Turkish psychedelic track (there are many volumes of Love Peace and Poetry if you are into that sort of thing, collecting hippie rock from all over the world), and the big long heavy Mono track just makes my day.

The Featured Track this week is "Dr C" by Alias and Tarsier. The track is from their new CD Brookland/Oaklyn on Anticon. A great review of this CD may be found at Pitchfork. Alias and Tarsier also have a MySpace, as does Anticon.

Episode 54: Zappa-esque?

OK this show doesn't really sound like Zappa. It is pretty full on and less subtle than usual though and I think that is why I get that Zappa vibe. Pretty over the top stuff.
