Mostly Singles: The Box of Records Show (Audio)
May 24, 2022
Another time capsule, hand-delivered by a friend, a personal collection of vinyl LPs — boxed, like new, from the mid-1980s, including The Smiths, Roxy Music, The English Beat, The The, Motown, Francis Lai, Spinners, a rare EP from the former Yugoslavia. Dreamy and rocking, crooners and swooning through the night.
Claverack resident Michael Wilde presents "Mostly Singles," selections from an extensive collection of 45 rpm vinyl — music from the 1950s, '60s, '70s and early '80s, mixed with some 78 rpm selections from American popular song and field recordings from the Library of Congress and folklore archives. Broadcast live from the WGXC Hudson studio.
