Tonight, Jim, Jamie and Jason listen to some Mardi Gras shows from a handful of years. Tune in at 8:00 pm, Sunday!
Songs include: Iko Iko | Man Smart (Woman Smarter) | Standing On The Moon | Truckin’ | Spoonful | Corrina | The Other One | Way To Go Home | The Same Thing | and more!
I swear I am not phoning it in, but there are weeks that I think I could have done better by you. I think I did pretty well tonight. I’m mixing it up, I’m surprising even myself! And I love the comments some of you are throwing my way.
Yes, where else are you going to hear Jefferson Starship, Black Sabbath and Ice-T all in the same show? Where indeed? Certainly not in local commercial radio stations.
Full disclosure: from time to time I have been known to button push on the car stereo. I may even stop on commercial rock station, formerly known as KSAN, which now goes by the unfortunate moniker “The Bone”. So sad. Recently I was noticing that of the ten songs I heard (I was driving for a while, OK?) not one of them was newer than 1978. 1978! What are they thinking? Who needs this? And then there’s Dave-FM “Totally Random Radio”. Yes. Random. From AOR all the way to MOR.
wow
I promise never to insult your ears. I also want you to take more risks with your music listening. Start by enjoying more Radio Valencia. Then stretch out to KFJC, KALX and WFMU. There are so many brilliant non-commercial music stations across the dial (terrestrial and otherwise).
Get listening.

I brought so much fabulous vinyl into the studio tonight, just to find the turntables were out of service. Ugh. No bueno. luckily I also brought a handful of CDs and a packed hard drive. Not to worry, I’m always prepared.
I’m reminded of my earliest days in radio, starting at KFJC in late 1988. I was trained by the magnificent and wacky Hell ‘n’ Hairspray. She alerted me to the need to always be prepared. Have a few CDs cued up, just in case what you want to play doesn’t. Good advice.
On Monday night I still found a way to share lots of new music, including Iggy Pop, Death Valley Girls, Psi-Psonics, and Brigid Dawson. I also pay tribute to the Funk Goddess, Betty Davis, who passed away last week at the tender age of 77. Did you know she wrote a new tune back in 2019? This was news to me. Listen to it in the second hour.
I was also excited to find some music I haven’t listened to in quite a while, as I was hunting through my CD collection for a few items. You’ll really get a kick out of “Tommy In Seven Seconds” by the Vital Records gang. Thanks to Jim Fourniadis who ran the label and was also guitarist/singer for the New Jersey punk outfit Rats of Unusual Size. What a mench!
There’s something here for everybody. You really do need Radio Valencia in your life. Turn off that commercial radio dreck. It’ll take years off your life.
Radio Valencia gives tickets away to shows at Bottom of the Hill every week. Tune into my show and many others to get a chance to go see some great music at a great venue.
We’re also hosting a live fundraiser at next door neighbor’s place, Make Out Room on Sunday, March 27th. Details coming soon. We need your funds to keep up the fun.
Enjoy and please share.
