4/29/09 playlist

I suppose my first show during a WMSE pledge drive went pretty well except in the it’d-sure-be-nice-to-be-overwhelmed-with-calls-and-raise-lots-of-money-for-the-station sense. Corey was there ready for action, and, alas, action was sorta quiet. The station hopes to raise $125,000 by July, but please don’t wait to donate. Support Milwaukee’s finest purveyor of independent, freeform radio right now. Call 414-799-1917 or pledge online. Thanks again, Corey, for staying up late, providing bucket loads of witty banter and putting up with me playing the music way too damn loud in the studio.
As for the music, I spent a big ‘ol chunk of time playing songs from bands performing at the Ponderosa Stomp, which was held April 28-29 in New Orleans. I know one Rick Cornell was there and I would love to hear a report. In my pledge drive/Ponderosa/grading papers/freelance writing/editing the magazine/Corey’s –so-damn-good-lucking-it’s-easy-to-get-distracted fog, I forgot to mention the International Pop Overthrow, going on tonight through Sunday at Linneman’s. Nick Pipitone, the Nice Outfit, the Lackloves, the International Date Lines and The Pugilists are just a few of the performers. While it certainly would have made more sense to do a before the festival set of songs on the show, I will do a post-festival set of songs next week in my attempt to partially make up for it.

Playlist for 4/22/09

Had a bad case of the mumblin'-bumblin'-can't-talk-right-for-nothing-and-can't-read-my-writing-on-the-playlist blues this week, but a fun time was had anyway. New music from Scott Miller, Art Brut (doing a song about the Replacements - yet another to add to the ever-expanding canon), Los Straitjackets and a tune by the Sugar Stems from the local Buzzcity comp. Also worth pointing out is the new Swamp Dogg single "Please Step Back," available as a free download. I first heard about the song at Largehearted Boy; it was created by Dogg for the book of the same name by Ben Greenman. Read more about the book and song and download said free song here. I should also point out that Tobacco-a-Go-Go, Vol. 3, the wild and wacky - and free courtesy of compiler Ken Friedman - collection of North Carolina garage rock from the '60s, can be downloaded here.

4-15-09 playlist

The I Love My Label segment returned this week with a long run of songs from the Twin/Tone catalog, including a whole set dedicated to the Replacements (shown above in all their youthful glory). I decided a Part 2 down the road is definitely in order. Forgot to play "Rain Delay" in tribute to Harry Kalas, but will be sure to take care of that mistake next week. More songs from the fabulous new album from John Paul Keith and One Four Fives, Spills & Thrills, also is guaranteed.

Playlist for 4-8-09

Highlights this week include a tribute to Duane Jarvis (shown above performing "A Girl That's Hip"), the well-loved singer-songwriter and guitarist who passed away April 1 at the age of 51. Really enjoying the full-length, vinyl-only release from Jail and the new EP from Superchunk. Also had short sets featuring bands from Austin and Seattle, a group of songs from mostly ‘80s indie compilations and a groovy affirmation from the fabulous Sammy Hall Singers.

Playlist for 4-1-09

A baseball theme started the show this week. My world champion Phillies start the season with a game at home against the Braves on Sunday on ESPN. Meanwhile, my second-favorite team, the Brewers, open Tuesday at San Francisco. Can't hardly wait (token Replacements reference).

I started a new independent label spotlight segment I'm calling I Love My Label, a name I stole from the Nick Lowe song. This week I featured the excellent Milwaukee label Easter Records, home of Trolley, the Nice Outfit, Heathrow and a few others. My 7-inch Six-Pack selections all came from WMSE's music rummage sale over the weekend. I picked up a great pile of 50-cent 45's and a wacky Christian Folk record with drug needles, dice and whiskey pictured on the cover. Good times await - I plan on playing a song from it next week.

Finally, fans of the Waco Brothers or Meat Purveyors will want to check out http://www.deanowaco.com/. Muskego native Dean Schlabowske from the Waco Brothers recently hooked up with Austin's Meat Purveyors to record an album that you can download for free from their website. Don't forget to tip your guitarslingers.
