4. From "Ziggy Stardust," an album that still sounds great after 36 years.
5. Sixties counterculture heroes The Fugs spoofing "Secret Agent Man."
6. One of the songs I wish I had written.
7. From "Cosmic Thing," the B-52's 1989 comeback album. Whenever I hear it, I think of my friend Deadspot. I bought the cassette of this album for my drive to his wedding in 1990.
8. Kurt Cobain's widow Courtney Love and her band doing a cover of a Replacements song.

Remind me to tell you the story of how The Blow Monkeys got some traction in college radio. Classic. Marshall Crenshaw is always welcome. Might need to go dig that up today. Man, I love Anatomy. I mean that in the most academic sense possible. Really. I am a total goober.
Wow, Marshall Crenshaw!! Digging up some memories my friend!
I drove to and from La Crosse Wisconsin to Chicago with Bruce the ex when I was in college. The cassette of Cosmic Thing got caught in the tape deck on the way up, somewhere around Tomah. It was a long trip.
