Starting with the 70s -- it could be a classic (or obscure) punk rocker, a forgotten disco diva, a long-unheard hit record, or none of these. What happens next depends on what's in the WFMU new bin and whether I remember my records from home. Tune in and find out! You'll even hear a live band once in a while.

I saw Bill Laswell in Brooklyn on Friday and he was amaaaazing. I've been researching him alot recently - thanks for playing this cut, I haven't gotten this far back in his discog. yet. It's huuuuuge. I had no idea he got this funky. Though nothing he does surprises me.

Hey Josh, what was the album? And speaking of Dennis - Michael From The Left Coast, if you're still out there, tell me more about your drums' appearance on the Late Music album!
Wed. 9/16/09 1:07am
From:
Joshua K
Its an Album called salesman. You can find it on itunes searching for Dave Kleiner. Its like comedy/folk/rock singer/songwriter whatever you want to call it. Dennis brought in some good people on it, it was fun hanging out at the studio with family and friends when it was being recorded.
