all tracks played were ripped from vinyl. no click/pop removal made so if you hear clicks/pops, realize that it's FROM A RECORD THAT'S PROBABLY OLDER THAN YOU!
Since I announce each track, I'm not going to give a tracklisting

part 2 in the roadtrip monologues (this is probably going to be a trilogy). This continues the same theme as the previous episode. might do 1 more to make it a trilogy. again, you won't hear me drone on except about anchor.fm in the beginning. (anchor.fm is actually pretty awesome and easy to setup. i wouldn't mention them if I didn't like them...)

during this episode, you won't hear a peep from me (other than the obligatory ad for anchor) as to fit the theme. it's supposed to be like you just popped in the ultimate mix tape (or as you youngesters call it, the ultimate playlist) because making mix tapes or even mix cd's is a sort of lost art. I used to lovee compiling stuff from my existing collection, whether it be from vinyl, CD or cassette. designing the J-Card or CD jewel case art. it was loads of fun!

Tom Waits - Hang On St. Christopher (from Franks Wild Years)

Greetings Deviants!
i'm giving my initial reaction to Pearl Jam's new album. Keep in mind, I'm hearing this album in its entirety for the first time so I haven't had time to digest it all. It's pretty good. Different in ways but still good.

Started off with playing a couple tracks by Throbbing Gristle & Psychic TV in honor of Genesis P-Orridge then continued down the industrial/goth/punk rabbit hole.

I ramble on about the new singles from Lady Gaga & Pearl Jam as well as droning about nothing at all. Should be a fun ride.
