Rat Salad Radio • May 9, 2012

Album side from Neil Young whilst I got my stuff together, then Frank Zappa to express my dismay at the voting, then a buncha heavy stuff to match that mood.  New Irish music, old Norwegian music. Hayti-recorded "Ain't Gonna Let Nobody."  Blue Jay Way.  Patti Smith twists "Smells Like Teen Spirit."  And some Glass On Your Pillow.  Another nice morning of radio.
