Playlist December 27,2002 (Tribute: Joe Strummer/The Clash)

I did a major tribute to Joe Strummer via The Clash (he died this week via a stroke). What I did last night was mix The Clash in with the rest of my stuff, and talked all through the night about why I was playing so much Clash music, and how he died... as well as his contribution to punk rock and socially conscious music. THEN... I did a half-hour block (like I usually do) at 1am.... and continued mixing Clash music in through the end.

She had been with StereoLab since 1993, and she was a vital part of SteroLab's sound. So this goes out to her family and friends and fans the world over."

Playlist November 29, 2002 (Spotlight: Duran Duran)

Last night, due to the holiday festivities, I decided to wing it and do a Duran spotlight. Once I got started, of course, it was hard to stop, so I did an hour long spotlight (normally, I try to keep them to 20 or 30 minutes).  I had one request for White Lines, but I'd brought neither my Thank You CD nor my White Lines CD-5. :/ I guess I'll have to bring that next week.
