  Just say no       2004    Taken from one of the countless anti-drug PSA (public service announcements) CD compilations that arrive at radio stations across the USA on a regular basis. Often so bad they're good. Usually they never get airplay by the stations but end up in their trash bin where I forage for these gems....Love em!

Kid Koala  Drunk Trumpet Live   Favoriting XEN box set      CD  Note this live version of Drunk Trumpet is totally different and much better from his album reg. studio version and can be found on the recommended three CD compilation XEN cuts that features the likes of Steinski, Coldcut, and Quannam cats.   
Popeye  a friend is someone you like   Favoriting       Vinyl  This old record is an example of why I love and fully appreciate the vast WFMU library. I stumbled upon this gem under soundtracks. I never heard it before but fell in love with it right away!

Popeye and others  backwards mix   Favoriting         impromtu backwards mix of Popeye and other stuff..
