Artist Track Album Comments Images Approx. start time
Buck Warren  Track 1 pt. 2 (on Side 2)   Favoriting To O’Hare International  Continued from last week. “… an entire spoken-word album about how much he loves O’Hare Airport in Chicago!” - Biafra 
Favoriting
0:00:00 (Pop-up)
Zing  Planned Barrenhood   Favoriting Zingalamaduni  From the liner notes mentioned by Biafra: “How you live or die in the year 2020 is being decided right now… In the year 2020 social security recipients and unproductive people will be considered as unnecessary burden to those who remain productive. What will society do with unproductive people? Who will you be in 2020? Will your life end naturally, or will someone else choose?” Really creepy. This is the best song on the record in my opinion” - Your DJ 
Favoriting

Louis Farrakhan  Let Us Unite   Favoriting “Let Us Unite”  “And here’s a Louis Farrakhan (misspelled as Farakhan in the book) disco single! I shows him posing in front of a fake sunset remarkably like the fake sunsets found on Heino album covers. He croons in Barry White-style, “Let Us Unite” with the same “unity or else” mentality of early Agnostic Front skinhead lyrics…” - Biafra 
Favoriting
0:12:01 (Pop-up)
Heino  Niedersachsenlied   Favoriting Uns Geht Die Sonne Nicht Unter : Heimat- Und Vaterlandslieder  This is one of the Heino covers I believe Biafra is referring to.

Saving the best track from this LP for that show, when this record is brought up again :) - Your DJ)
