Supernatural Radio

Ever since I was a little kid I’ve loved listening to music on the radio. I used to sit in the kitchen with my portable radio and call up local stations to make requests for Depeche Mode and the Smiths and others, sometimes the DJ or staff would ask my age and laugh. I recently found this relic, and although I usually stream radio over the WWW now, nothing can replace the delight of tuning static breaking open to a clear signal of music. I mostly listen to @nicharcourt on @885fmsocal and various @kexp DJs these days, keeping FM alive.

Joe Strummer ‘Johnny Appleseed’

Last week was International Clash Day, a new holiday started by Seattle radio station KEXP a few years ago and has now gone global. It gives me faith in humanity that the Clash are still beloved by music fans. There’s not a day that goes by I don’t think of Joe Strummer, I especially love his lyrical style and the soul he puts into his music. This is one of his songs I pulled up today to listen to, ‘Johnny Appleseed’:

Enjoy!
