Here’s this week’s links/videos/items of interest based on topics discussed during last night’s radio show. As always, I’ve attempted to post them in the order they were played on-air. Above photo by Zia Danger.

The excellent Head Of Skulls! record was put out by Past/Futures Records.

There really is going to be a Fred Lane documentary.

Free downloads! Black Tambourine demos. Hometapes Christmas compilation. A new Feelies song. Something off the forthcoming Kurt Vile record on Matador. The latest by Brown Recluse, a full EP called “Panoptic Mirror Maze.”

Happy birthday, TW Walsh.

Caterpillar are back with a new album.

Finally, learn with equal parts terror and awe about BOMBOGENESIS.

Download a free live record by Pittsburgh’s Fuck Yeah, Dinosaurs!, then try to get their songs out of your head.

The Bigger Lovers are back with a reissue, a reunion and a new digital maxi-single.

RIP Trish Keenan of Broadcast.

Sadly, Basil of Caninus was put to sleep.

20+ years after they played live on WPRB, Antietam are still going strong.

Prowler have an OdinSmith remix of their song “Alligator” for you.

Christmas press wrap-up.


Photo credit: Stephen Goldsmith

To put a final bow on the 2010 Xmas Show, here’s the slew of interviews and articles leading up to the program.

Jeff from Used Wigs and I exchanged emails.

Keith Karabin wrote a lengthy piece where he talked to listeners of the show.

I was a guest on PRI’s Here & Now. They played up the “wacky” angle, but it went well anyway.

WHYY also had me on for an interview, which ran on Christmas Eve.

Philadelphia City Paper called me “the second most-beloved Christmas Jew of all time”

The Princeton Packet listed the show on their holiday calendar.

Kind words from fellow Christmas music collectors Stubby and the King of Jingaling.

Here’s the interview with and short article I wrote for The Takeaway.

Phew. I think that’s it. If you know of any links/audio/posts I’m missing, please share.

My traditional Wednesday night radio show will return with a “Best of 2010” program on January 12th at 7:00 pm ET.

Hope you can join me.

My appearance on The Takeaway.


I was a guest on WNYC’s national morning program The Takeaway earlier today, talking hip hop Christmas songs in advance of this coming Friday’s 24-Hour Holiday Radio Show. You can listen to my appearance here.

It was a lot of fun.

I also wrote a piece for The Takeaway’s web site called “The Making of a Christmas Playlist.”
