This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio # 1200: Some Fave Raves From The First 1199

1200 shows. Still here.

We wanted to celebrate this latest in our inexplicable series of milestones with a three-hour blast through a few Fave Raves from our first 1199 shows. This radio record party includes stuff from years ago, and it also includes recent releases that have already established themselves as new TIRnRR perennials. There were dozens of other artists and other tracks we would have liked to squeeze in--a substantial but very incomplete few of them are listed as bonus tracks beneath the actual playlist below--but I think we struck a good balance, a decent representation of whatever the hell it is we do each week:

The Best Three Hours Of Radio On The Whole Friggin' Planet.

And next week: TIRnRR # 1201. 1202 the week after that. This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio's 25th anniversary at the end of the year, and then January brings the 32nd anniversary of the first pre-TIRnRR Dana & Carl shows in 1992.

Still here. If we've told you once we've told you 1200 times: This is what rock 'n' roll radio sounded like on another Sunday night in Syracuse this week.

This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl airs Sunday nights from 9 to Midnight Eastern, on the air in Syracuse at SPARK! WSPJ 103.3 and 93.7 FM, streaming at SPARK stream, archived at Westcott Radio
