This show features air clips of a few border blasters, and songs by The Blasters ("Border Radio"), Wall of Voodoo ("Mexican Radio"), The Doors ("The Wasp [Texas Radio and the Big Beat]"), ZZ Top ("Heard it on the X"), The Guess Who ("Clap for the Wolfman"), Ray Stevens ("The Moonlight Special"), and others.
