An LP tracks rock show in groups of 3. Was good to hear Orange Juice and Band Of Outsiders (who went perfectly with Love And Rockets). Coil tested my skills getting rid of the FCC violations. New Sparks is way better than I hoped. The ‘Keep It In Motion’ GBV tribute comp on Bunnygrunt’s Silly Moo Records brings 2 awesome tracks to the second hour. The In Camera / PIL segue that close out the second hour works so well. Every song has a story – listen and love.

A non-rock LP tracks show that starts controversially (is it non-rock?) with a track from Roxy Music’s ‘Siren’, and later in the show has a track from Dave Lombardo (drummer of Slayer – can THAT be non-rock!?) – I say yes, and this show is a great place to sit yourself during a Thanksgiving dinner: a decidedly US-centric event, even as it features artists from all over the world [Romain Azzaro, Nikolaienko, Eva Hurychová & Jan Neckář, Zuchy, Pejzaż, Sylvester Levay] and artists the seem from another world altogether [Yves Tumor].

Today’s Carl’s living room Gulls Window Circus plays a lot of post-punk an artists that pushed boundaries after leaving their more successful bands. Mick Jones went from The Clash to Big Audio Dynamite, Lara Logic went solo after X-Ray Spex, Steve Hackett went solo after Genesis, Edgar Froese went solo after Tangerine Dream, Jody Harris went solo after Contortions, Paul Haig went solo after Josef K, Gareth Sager went solo after The Pop Group, Klaus Dinger went solo after Neu! On the flip side, The Gordons turned into the better known band Bailter Space.
