Well, I deserve a D for attendance this summer. First there was the Chicago weekend, then the two-week European vacation. Subtract another week for traveler's disease and two more for COVID, and I've been absent from the airwaves as often as I've been present since June. Then factor in the two special programs (Madagascar independence day in June, Joe Strummer's birthday last week) and it's a wonder I've played any new releases at all this summer.
I'll remedy the latter situation this week (Sunday August 28, 1:00-3:00 PM on WRIR, for two weeks afterwards on the wrir.org archive player, check your local listings for airing on other radio stations, and any old time at my podcast site). I'm spinning nothing but new material and new reissues, no track released before May, only one track from an album I've played anything at all from in past shows.
And most of what I'll play will be singles, either stand-alones or pre-issues from albums coming out in the fall. Seems appropriate -- I've always thought 45s were the premiere summer format. Tune in and mark the unofficial end of summer with Global A Go-Go's Summer Singles Roundup.
