ALBUM SHOW NOTES
Ok Cowgirl is a Brooklyn NY-based band that has finally released a full album after a few years of singles and EPs. Their album, "Couldn't Save Us From My Gut" is a solid alt-rock album that is well worth your time. I've been following them on bandcamp for a bit now, and I think they should be heard. You can go to their website to see the whole 6-year process that led an Asian American pianist to found an indie rock band and It's worth your time. I've added three songs from the album to the rotation and will be playing the full album on this week's album show.
Also out this week is David Gilmour's long awaited "Luck and Strange", the new solo album from Jordan Rudess called "Permission to Fly", and "Belaya Polosa" by the Belarus-based band Molchat Doma - just in case you wanted to hear Depeche Mode-style songs but in Russian. Also of note is "Viva Hinds" from Hinds (who have whittled themselves down to a two-piece), and "Everything In The End" from Tears Run Rings. All albums are good, but we're going to feature Ok Cowgirl this week.
The Album Show plays on Thursdays at 9am and 9pm Pacific Standard Time.
RFC 2437
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 47 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 Wednesday 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. Last week I played a group of songs from 1988, and this week we're going to pick another year we haven't gone to yet.
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.
Cheap shots:
Hmmm..... could it be... racism?
You wanted policies? How about this then?
I point out that 20% of zero is still zero.
And yet still more racism.
An icon. A legend. I do not now and will never have anything bad to say about this man. He was amazing.
Last time he said he could kill people.Now he is actively saying he will kill people. Isn 't that a crime?
This horseshit again. You do realize that it's never worked right? Right?
Face it, there are monsters in the world.
Please, let's not waste our time on this. He's as white as white gets. He can wear a shirt. There's plenty other examples of weird out there.
I'm just thinking he doesn't like cats. Weirdo.
And because I love you, here is the video for the single I'm releasing Tomorrow.
