Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

That got my attention !!

Hey all
  9:07pm
steveL:

I would have loved Sunset Bombers. A year earlier than I guessed. Might explain the bits of sonic edge that might have led me to call them “punk”. In fairness, that was a pretty broad category in late 70s Denver.

steveL:

Cool drumming on Europeans.

Snowing tonight here in Southern Vermont. Despite streaming I pretend I need to adjust the aluminum foil on a faux antenna like the old days.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:05pm
efd:

how much snow are you expecting, ashestoashes?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:07pm
ashestoashes:

Maybe 4-5 inches.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:09pm
ashestoashes:

7" is an ep of snow, 12 inches is a long playing storm.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:14pm
efd:

seems like a CD's worth of snow is no big deal by Vermont standards

Julie M:

It doesn't snow like it used to in Vermont. Why, in MY day...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:18pm

Some day it will all be digital snow. Isnow.

Julie M:

Hi, efd. I could imagine listening to this Modern Nature song with snow falling outside tonight. But I sure couldn't imagine shoveling it...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:22pm
ashestoashes:

One tends to shovel it listening to the frenetics of Clay Pigeon.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:23pm
ashestoashes:

At night you just listen to modern nature and watch it fall.
