"What Can I Tell You" continues to to get more play from ROCK 'N' Roll Radio! I think this is the 4th week in a row they've played it. Check it out:
Hello again from Dana & Carl and This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio. We know you don't need us to remind you that this has been a miserable, awful week. So this week's playlist exists in a vacuum, unaffected by the real world, a giddy pop escape. We do this not to be shallow, but merely to concede that there's nothing useful we can say in the face of such unimaginable heartbreak. Contact the Red Cross, or a local charity if you prefer, and give generously. We'll provide you with some peppy music to write checks by.
That includes new music this week from ALL TOMORROW'S PARTY and THE BLOODY HOLLIES (both on Alive Records), a pair of unreleased tracks from EYTAN MIRSKY, a farewell to the late R.L. BURNSIDE, requests for THE KINKS, THE SHAMUS TWINS and JACK "PENETRATOR" LIPTON, and, of course, the music of THE FIRE APES, FRANKIE FORD, THE MUFFS, BIG STAR, THE ISLEY BROTHERS, THE LEN PRICE 3, THE BUZZCOCKS, IMMACULATE MACHINE, THE CURE, THE LYRES, THE DIPSOMANIACS, STATUS QUO, THE BAY CITY ROLLERS, THE GRIP WEEDS and DOLENZ, JONES, BOYCE & HART. Keep writing. Don't forget to endorse it.
Send a check, dammit. And this is what rock 'n' roll radio sounded like on a Sunday night in Syracuse this week.
This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio, hosted by Dana Bonn and Carl Cafarelli, airs Sunday nights fro 9 to midnight Eastern ( with reruns during the day on Wednesday) on WXXE-FM in Syracuse, NY, and on the web at www.wxxe.org.
