BOS to obscure B-52s.  I don't know the title of this one.

"Give Me Back My man" -- which really shoulda been sung by Fred.

That was "Give Me Back My Man", wasn't it?  off of Wild Planet

Wow, another NTM song from Devo.  Good set, though these songs just aren't that good, despite being obscure.

WOS to this spastic punk poser.  Like the Big Bopper meets Iggy Pop.

What in the world is this?  Sounds a tad like the Trashmen, especially with the tremolo vocals.

yeah, gotta agree this is not very good.  So much great punk/new wave in 1980, I'm not sure what posessed AL to spin this.

"Everybody Wants Some" was used in the one weak scene, the animated part, in Better Off Dead (a fave movie of mine).

wasn't that the Cramps?  HMFRA

holee crap, I can post!

ok, making up for lost time:

I like the Motels, although my friend Bobby remarked that Martha Davis looks liek someone with whom you would bump carts at Ross Dress For Less.  We saw her at the Marin County Fair last year
After the first two AWESOME Cars album, all their other stuff pales, but Touch and Go was decent. Anytime Eliot Easton can hold forth with a nice tasty guitar solo is a good experience.

BOS B52s and Devo

some people think the animated part is the best scene in the movie. ;)

methinks you may be right -- wasn't "Goo Goo Muck", but, in that vein.


OMGWTF! Alice Cooper goes all Gary Numan on yo' ass with "Clones"
