For the second half of the program today we're joined live from Dunedin, New Zealand by David and Hamish Kilgour, two thirds of The Clean! Formed in 1978, the trio of David, Hamish and Robert Scott (he of later and continued acclaim with The Bats, Magick Heads, etc.) boldly blazed the avenues of DIY-rock for their native land and its Flying Nun imprint which foisted the trio into national charts and eventual international awareness. Truly one of my favorite bands on the planet, The Clean created a color-soaked pastiche of psychedelia, post-punk, classic and futuristic moves despite their sporadic (yet ongoing) years of activity, and created a template for countless bands to follow then and now. We're spotlighting some rare and live tapes/radio and TV broadcasts today to celebrate a number of Clean-related reissues this past year, including Merge's recent reboots of the 1981 Boodle Boodle Boodle LP, Tally Ho 7", Unknown Country and Mister Pop LPs, and the extended reissue of David's Stephen project on the Yellow Electric imprint. Welcome David and Hamish and dig into a small slice of Clean history! PLAYLIST:
