First up, Everything But the Girl's Tracey Thorn's first band, the UK's Marine Girls did "In Love" from a collection of their early-80's-but-non-early-80's-sounding songs called Lazy Ways / Beach Party (iTunes, Amazon). Next we heard two fabulous tracks from the new fabulous The Pipettes album We are the Pipettes (iTunes, Amazon). We heard "Because It's Not Love (But It's Still a Feeling)" and "One Night Stand". Then New Hampshire's The Juan Maclean did "Give Me Every Little Thing" from his 2005 album Less Than Human (iTunes, Amazon). And finally she may have new music out, but Kirsty Hawkshaw's old band Opus III (also from the UK) was pretty quality too. We heard take-me-back-to-the-early-90s hit "It's a Fine Day" from the album Mind Fruit (Amazon). There are several remixes in iTunes, as well as a vocals only version, which is kinda cool, on a compilation called Pillows and Prayers vol. 2 (iTunes), which also happens to feature the Marine Girls. Go figure. This episode features a clip from the August 4th episode of The Rachel Maddow Show on Air America Radio about Pat Robertson.
