June 15, 1996 [Part 1] | WMFO 91.5 FM

Step into the Wayback Machine and hear my set from June 15, 1996 🙂 1996 me complains a lot about technical problems with the turntables and CD players but 2014 me is impressed with the music 1996 me was playing. Freeform, as always, and always the very best of it. Who doesn’t love Johnny Clarke’s “Creation Rebel?” And some sage words from Marshall McLuhan?! Are you kidding me? And Slayer and Metallica do covers of punk rock classics. And I adore Bahia Sunsets “Somewhere Not Here.”There’s too much not to love. So make sure you have a solid connection to the Bluetooth in your car stereo or your EarPods firmly socketed in, because it’s about to go all over the place!
