WFMU: Burn It Down! with Nate K.: Playlist from August 31, 2014

Burn It Down! with Nate K.: Playlist from August 31, 2014

Music for the revolution in my head: choogling punks; power pop, both skinny-tied and long-haired; soul shouters and girl groups; bubblegum and acid rock; global fuzz; weirdos and outsiders, and the Weirdos and the Outsiders; Archie Shepp and J. Geils. Plus, live bands.

August 31, 2014: The Lord Loves a Working Man (or Woman)
