Radio What Wave Playlist Thursday Aug 9/2012
When i arrived to do the show, there was a pre-recorded segment airing...(ie nobody was at the station and they were playing some show that had been broadcast prior) so i hijacked the station and started at about 5:30PM, hence the longer playlist.
1. X Ray Spex....Let's Submerge...from their Germ Free Adolescents LP from 1978. 'We're going down....to the the underground' has always been a battle call for underground music in my books!!
