WFMU: Burn It Down! with Nate K.: Playlist from January 1, 2017

Burn It Down! with Nate K.: Playlist from January 1, 2017

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.

	♥ 6:06am fred: I got this Music of Morocco box set last week. It's absolutely great.
	♥ 6:07am Nate K.: Happy New Year, folks. Onward! But first a look back.
	♥ 6:08am Nate K.: Hey Fred, yes, Santa brought the M.O.M. box for me.
	♥ 6:15am fred: I usually order from Dust to digital once a year only, to save on shipping. They usually have great deals in December, this year it was the four 2016 releases for $100. All are excellent
	♥ 6:46am Sem Chumbo: Oh, Paul Bowles was the shit around Moroccan music in his time. Great envy, Nate. Good morning, and hello fred, duke.
	6:49am KP: Happy New Year, Nate
	♥ 6:52am fred: One of the things I love about D2D is the "liner notes". I put quotes because they're often books, full of information and pictures
	♥ 6:57am Nate K.: @Fred, Indeed. The leather-bound book inside was a nice surprise.
	♥ 7:07am ultradamno: That there was a Dow Jones reissue this year totally got past me. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!
	♥ 7:20am Nate K.: @ultradamno That's the best part of this show. I would overlook stuff myself if I didn't compile this list.

	♥ 8:15am Nate K.: @Kelsey, if I'm not mistaken, "glip glop" is a controversial term.
	♥ 8:20am Nate K.: The Hunches trifecta here.
	♥ 8:20am fred: Well, "controversy" was the name of a Prince album, so it can't be all bad
	♥ 8:30am Nate K.: Indeed, controversy can be good. Also, "glip glop" is a reference, I think, to the cartoon show show "Rick and Morty."
	♥ 8:34am fred: I got to see 75 Dollar Bill this year, and it was a great show!
	♥ 8:48am DonJuanTijuana: @NateK HNY! Joined late but I am so bookmarking this show. Love this Midnight Mines tune + Lavender Flu...my top 2 for 2016. Cheers!
