Vinyl Freedom: Hitchhiker Mix (Audio)

May 17, 2022

After the local news, DJ Paddy Boom spins a live show pulling from his 40-plus years of collecting vinyl for a genre-shake-down of choice cuts of rock, funk, punk, junk, reggae, rare groove, soundtracks, and oddities.

DJ Paddy Boom was the original drummer in Grammy-nominated Scissor Sisters. Death By Comfort is his current work as a drummer/songwriter/producer. Photo: Alice Teeple.
