The Dial-a-Disc service -- introduced in 1966 -- by which U.K. residents could phone in and hear songs recorded by engineers from 7" records onto continuous loop reel-to-reel. Music was played back to the caller by an EA9A machine originally designed to handle high call volume during cricket Test Matches and repurposed in the off-season months to share pop 45s by phone.
We've always got your wild and way out 60's sounds on the Fringe Factory, and tonight the Q65 lead the way and the Painted Ship, Zakary Thaks, and Bohemian Vendetta follow. More new Sonics sounds round it all out! Check us out either on Tune In Radio or on the pop up player at WFMU.org where you can also use the link for our playlist and comments to enter the chat room and hang out with us!
Today on Crayons To Perfume! The girls sing about their Mamas, on our tribute to Mothers Day show (a few days early). Like any self-centered teenager, the girls mostly end up singing about themselves... but we'll let Mama get a few words in herself. Check out the video below, and listen to Crayons to Perfume!
