First, classic reggae/ska artist
Phyllis Dillon does her take on the even more classic "Perfidia" which is on a number of albums, namely
Midnight Confessions. You can get the import album I have from
Amazon, or you can pay .99¢ and
download the track from a compilation in
iTunes, where they have many other good versions of "Perfidia" as well. Next was London's
Hefner with their song "The Day That Thatcher Dies" from their great 2000 album
We Love the City which you can get in
iTunes, at
Amazon, or from
Other Music. Then we heard East Lansing Michigan's
Wally Pleasant with the song "I was a Teenage Republican" from his incredibly great 1992 album
Welcome to Pleasantville which can be attained by sending monies to
Wally's Miranda Records. Lastly
The Incredible Moses Leroy (featuring Miho Hatori of
Cibo Matto) played "The Color of Sky" from his latest album
The Soft.Lightes (
iTunes,
Amazon), which is good, but not as good as his
Electric Pocket Radio (
iTunes,
Amazon).
Due to the passing of Ronald Reagan, this weeks episode features a special Bill Hicks interlude.
