This week’s broadcast wrapped up the year with one final edition of Mindtrain. I played some new and interesting music from Daniel Padden and Jac Berrocal, along with old and treasured classics by Frank Zappa, Faust, ZNR, Cockney Rebel, Julee Cruise, Chrystal Belle Scrodd and others, including rather long tracks by Nurse With Wound, Current 93 and Jean-Luc Ponty.

Mindtrain may have gone off the rails, but I’m not leaving Radio Valencia. Tune in next Monday night at the same time for an all-new adventure in underground radio. More will be revealed…

The playlist gives artist name, song title, and album title (in that order). A space between lines of text indicates the break between sets where track announcements were made.
