Last week’s show debuted Michael Stipe’s long-awaited return to making music. This week we debuted Beck’s surprise announcement that his new record finished and slated for release next month! I'm pretty keen on Michigander (who was added to Pete Yorn’s show at Metro next month) and the latest song “Misery.” And then there’s The Who - tongue in cheek, middle finger wave to the record business - “All This Music Will Fade.” Check it out below and check out past shows' playlists here.
Support the artists you hear on the radio station AND small businesses - buy the artists’ music from a local, independent, or family-owned music store. Let me know what you find the next time you go crate diving! My handle on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter is RyanArnoldRocks.
