This week I bring you a mix for the whole family, starting with (who else but) The Young Fresh Fellows, a band that inhabits that same sphere of snotty rock and roll that Billy Childish and The Soft Boys do; while it's no longer cool to wander around Seattle with Nirvana blasting in your ears, if you got the Fellows in there you'll be just fine. Von LMO, like the earlier-played Boris Police Band, was another one of those fixtures of the New York No Wave scene that everyone forgets about, stylistically similar to The Contortions, and everyone loves them, right? And finally let's not forget the Rick Potts Band, from the other end of the country at the same time The Contortions and 8-Eyed Spy and all them were terrorizing NYC. If I ever get a 'real' radio show, I'll put this song at the end of every episode, like Rodney did with The Porpoise Song (another great track there, by the way).
1. The Young Fresh Fellows - Rock'n'Roll Pest Control
2. Schmuel! - Ebony Concerto

The voice of 'Keven' in Locomotive 3D now makes video games here!
And new for the show, introducing The Klen House Addendum...too busy for the whole show? Check out a choice cut from your friend and mine, YouTube. Sometimes it'll be a different mix (like this time), sometimes it'll be something totally different...
