I continued exploring recent releases from Yard Act, Real Estate, Boeckner, Ride, Julia Holter, Kim Gordon and Bolis Pupul on the show this week, while the retro alternative set focused on tunes from the year 1984, in honor of the recent Pitchfork Sunday Review of the Meat Puppets’ influential sophomore album, “Meat Puppets II.” The block includes jangle-pop classics (Lloyd Cole and the Commotions, The Go-Betweens), alternative rock legends (The Smiths, The Replacements, Husker Du), oddball maverick songwriters (David Sylvian, Scott Walker, Jane Siberry), international gems from Japan and Italy (Akiko Yano, Miharu Koshi, Matia Bazar) and much more. Here’s the tracklist for the full show:
