David Shortell:

I don't think I've ever heard Clear Light played on the radio before! Too bad you didn't play their first single's B-side, which I understand differs from the version heard on "The President's Analyst" soundtrack in that their proper vocalist sings it instead of Barry McGuire!
  4:43pm
On the Yazoo:

Tie Dye Flashbacks.
  4:51pm
David Shortell:

Aargh! Reading that Plimsouls track on the playlist reminds me that Peter Case was scheduled to perform at Vintage Vinyl Records today at the same time this program began! It's too late now.

@David: He's playing tonight at Maxwell's as well. Granted, it's not a free show like VV was but you get to soak up that Hoboken ambience.

@Glenn: We'll see if we have time for the Grape. Lots of rekkids to get to.

@Ricahrd: Thanks! It should most definitely be archived along with Mike's other shows: http://wfmu.org/playlists/MV
