Our TRASHIEST episode ever::: DJ DADA goes full K-TEL mode with cheap novelty records that will have you crawling out of your skin and halfway up the walls, while DESTRUCTO brings the 50's gooners, 60's slop, and 70's punkers all on vinyl!

Electric future shock therapy & post dance party decadence, one quarter of the way through the 21st century and still there aint no cure for love. This week's show takes a European detour by way of Nina Hagan in Berlin before the wall came down, Ivan Cattaneo after the fascists left Italy, Souxie & her notorious Banshees, Switzerlands mad scientists Yello, French synthpunk anarchists La Femme, and the sultry mediterranean sounds of Saada Bonaire. Back stateside you'll hear west coast pop-lockers ZAPP, David Byrne spinning his Catherine Wheel, and of course Lewis Reed.
The many moods of R&R Lounge -- songs of love & longing, lonesome towns and heartbreak hotels. Don't forget the French connection - from the late chanteuse Francoise Hardy to modern times with La Femme. Music sweet and strange from Robbie Basho and Joao Gilberto. Records to sit and watch as tears go by, and when they're all over you wonder to yourself, is that all there is?
Nancy Sinatra, Marianne Faithful, Dick Dale, Miserlou Reed, Mose Allison, Sylvain Sylvain & The SONICS
