George from Angry Mom Records stops by, with a bunch of vinyl to spin. This was a good time, and a good show. As a bonus, he absolved me of "too much time spent in record stores," at least partially--perhaps a President or a Pope might have done more, but I will take what I can get.Notes on the program: (a) I meant to play something I'd once purchased at No Radio Records, but didn't get around to it, much to my regret; (b) the stories about my time in Amsterdam are, "sadly," true--even the "internet cafes" (good grief, remember those?) were hash bars,...

Notes on the program: (a) I meant to play something I'd once purchased at No Radio Records, but didn't get around to it, much to my regret; (b) the stories about my time in Amsterdam are, "sadly," true--even the "internet cafes" (good grief, remember those?) were hash bars, but I was really using them for the internet; (c) I manage to get the French translation wrong, even though it's right there on the record cover: "perdre" is the infinitive of the verb, hence "to lose"; (d) all other anomalies can be chalked up to my usual raggedness.
