Live from The Lizard Lounge - A side of Tape 1 -

Just finished the second side (A side) of the 1st of ten tapes from Geoff. Nice tape with three, that's three three song sets from Echo & The Bunnymen, Jane's Addiction and The Smithereens. All this during a Station Renovation Weekend live from The Lizard Lounge. The tape starts with a U2 song and ends with almost two from Public Image Ltd including "Rise".

Scattered within these sets is a Dr. Katherine Cruel M.D. skit along with the first 10 callers get a pass to the Gross National Product's Scandal Tour.

So, can anyone date this tape? One clue, when the DJ was talking about what seemed to be mild blackmail, she talked about sending a tape to America's Funniest Videos rather than posting them online.

The three song sets include: Echo & The Bunnymen's Lips Like Sugar, Bed Bugs and Ballyhoo, Never Stop; Jane's Addiction's Stomp, Jane Says and Ben Caught Steelin'; The Smithereens’ Behind the Wall of Sleep, Yesterdays Girl, Only a Memory.

Get it here

Tape is 104MB, 46 minutes and a MP3@320kb

Please - if you download, leave a comment and a review of the tape would be great as well. Don't forget to head over to my WHFS great music forums

1987 Thanksgiving Day with Weasel uninterrupted

1987 Thanksgiving Day with Weasel uninterrupted

This tape has almost 13 songs with Royal Court tailing at the end. One of my most complete recordings with four awesome breaks by Weasel. What was I doing recording WHFS on Thanksgiving Day in 1987? Let's see, I was 22 and living at home. I can hear my Mom now "IT'S DINNER TIME, GLENN". Well, I bet she was a bit more polite on T-Day then normal days.
Enjoy!

U2 – Sweetest thing
The Jam - The Bitterest Pill (I Ever Had to Swallow)
Weasel recap
Pete Wiley – It’s sinful
Paul Carrack - Every time you walk into the room

The original post from 2008 had a download URL. The Megaupload site has been shutdown so I am now streaming the historical and educational material via WMA. This was loaded Nov. 23, 2013
