American_revolution_small This week we do an entire segment based on pairs of songs, a segment of all-British bands (including a spotlight on some early B sides and album tracks from the Who), and present what is in all likelihood the very first punk-rock album ever recorded (David Peel and the Lower East Side's American Revolution). There's plenty of other good stuff as well, including several tracks never played on the show before. And check out the closing song of the night: the original live version of Somebody To Love by the Great! Society.
