A vinyl rock show that works the room without worrying about artists sharing the same vibe. I loved programming this show and believe it is a great listen end to end. First 10 songs are from the 80s, then two from the 90s, then 3 from the 70s. All artists are well-known in their fanbases, but as grouped together will surprise all listeners.

This Gulls Window Circus show covers lesser-known rock bands 1995-1999 that released stellar songs, without finding larger exposure. Nothing here is sub-par, the only thing that was missing for these bands was a lot of ears, something this show hopes to rectify.

A return to rock vinyl on Gulls Window Circus after the 8 week The 2000s series: lots of interesting tracks from many eras, many from recent reissues, plus new music from Black Helicopter from their Balancing Act LP, plus the debut 7″ from Cam Couple, the latest project of John Hugh Dickey (Pie, Verst, Richard Bitch), and two recent Harriet Records releases, by Jim’s Twenty-One and The Ekphrastics. I also play a track each from Dave Formula (Magazine, Visage) and Mozart Estate (Lawrence from Felt and G-Kart Mozart). Special mention goes to the Philip Lester track from The Direct Records Story Vol. Three compilation.
