Rules Free Radio Sept 3 2024

On this week’s Rules Free Radio with Steve Caplan, we’ve got a lot of new music including Chime School, Fontaines D.C., The Softies, Los Bitchos, Flying Nuns covering David Bowie, Rob Moss & Skin-Tight Skin, Illuminati Hotties, Charly Bliss, Spirit of The Beehive, Laurie Anderson, Susanna, Moon Diagrams, and Malice K. In the second hour, inspired by a comment a friend shared about some kid encountering a cassette recorder we’re going to hear music from the era of mixtapes. In this case, it will be a lot of rockers, Jump Blues, and Boogie. We’ll listen to classics and in-betweens by The Jam, The Reds Pinks & Purples, Arthur Russell, The English Beat, Mdou Moctar, Lou Reed, Mott The Hoople, The Beths, HEM, Everything But The Girl, Rolling Stones, Flamin’ Groovies, NRBQ, The Animals, and many more.
