Last Night's Show (April 23, 2010)

Good morning, folks.

Here's what I played on last night's show. (Ouch, that was a lot of typing, but we gotta log everything in during the show.)

The DJ who goes on before me was a no-show, so I started the night early with several selections from the classic surf LP "Overboard" by the Fathoms. (I played more than what's listed below. The whole album is great.)

The archive MP3 of this show will magically appear at http://www.easy-ed.net/ in a few days. (It will be on iTunes too.)

Thanks, as always, for your interest in this show. If you live in Boston I hope to see you either tonight (4/24) at the Nick Curran benefit show (Midway Cafe in JP) or next Wednesday (4/28) for Primitive Sounds night at River Gods in Cambridge.

Bop!

Easy Ed
