Radio Free California Episode 2429, Radio Station Notes, and it wasn't an assasination attempt; it was a mass shooting

 


Great big ol' list of new music from artists like Wishy, Everyone Says Hi, Laughing, Dive Time, Woody and Jeremy, Gut Health, Frute, Lemoncello, Sister, Phish, Cassandra Jenkins and much more! Enjoy!

ALBUM SHOW NOTES

Laughing is a Canadian band whose debut album, "Becaue It's True", is an album well worth your time. As they like to say themselves, they pay attention to some of the best songwriting of the past 5 decades and use it to influence what they come up with, and they're pretty good at it. All of the members come from other Canadian bands you've never heard of like Monomyth and Nap Eyes, but this incarnation I believe is going places. Please check out our north of the border naighbors (assuming you're in the US) when we play the full album on this week's Album Show.

Also worthy of note this week is the new album by Phish, which for once really catches their live shoud, called "Evolve", The new album by Cassandra Jenkins called "My Light, My Destroyer" that features the song "Petco", and Cigarettes After Sex's new album, "X's". If you want to revist the 1980's but with brand new music, I recomment Love Friend's new release called "Handle With Care", and if you feel like testing out a gothic horror concept album, I do recommend Earth Tongue's "Great Haunting". Finally, I have to admit that I liked the new Remi Wolf album "Big Ideas".

For once the Spotify Biography (quoted above) is pretty accurate. JonoJono is really a mix of many styles, without it becomming a mess. I rather enjoy his new album "I'm cool... I guess" and will be playing this album on this week's show.

The Album Show will plays on Thursdays at 9am and 9pm Pacific Standard Time.

RFC 2429

For those of you who stay away from Spotify the current week's additions will be played on Wednesdays. This is a change from prior programming: what we're going to do going forward is just play the music added this week only. Every other day will be the usual rotation, but we set aside Wednesdays for just the new additions for the week. This week that's 54 songs, which we will play in the same order that they're in on the Spotify playlist of the same name up at the top of this post. So if you tune in at just about any time on Wedmesday you will hear the whole playlist.

10 at 10

One last programming note: Every Saturday at 10pm and again on Sunday at 10am and 10pm we will feature our show "10 at 10", where we play 10 (and sometimes 11 or even 12!) songs from a year we pick at random. Again, all times are PST. I usually don't give you any heads up about what I'm going to play, but this week is different and I'm going to tell you right off the top that I'm going to play songs from the year 1987 - it's going to be quite a difference from the playlist of two years earlier I played last week, so be sure to tune in!.


As always, you can go to https://global.citrus3.com:2020/public/radiofreecalifornia to listen to the station, and there is an imbed below. And did you know the station is available as an app? It's only for Google Play (sorry iphone users - Apples terms and conditions were too restrictive for me) but you can listen on your phone at your convenience too.


I'm working on a group of essays about Project 2025. It is so much worse than you know. The first one will be up soon. By the way, J.D. Vance is an admin on Project 2025's website. Just sayin'.

Cheap shots:

So it's J.D. Motherfucking Vance. There is nothing real about the man, not even his motherfucking "Hillbilly Elegy". Not one thing. The only comment I have on the man who just 8 years ago called Felon45 "America's Hitler" and said he was voting for Hilary Clinton is this comment from The Lincoln Project:





Um guys, all that talk about getting shot? He got GRAZED. You know, if it wasn't a Ketchup packet he had in his hand. He went golfing while an Actual President was giving condolances to the family of the man who actually was killed.

One last thing, let's stop calling it an Assasination Attempt. It was a MASS SHOOTING. At least 4 people were hit with bullets, and one of them is dead. Two more are in the hospital.

And because I love you, Here is the exact live performance of the song by Big Big Train in the playlist above. I'm not a big fan of live albums by rock bands because its usually the performance and not the music that works live, but this video changed my mind about this one. Enjoy.
