Started with some random songs loosely associated with Halloween, then heard some stuff from the new Elvis Costello and the release of early Bob Dylan demos.
Was inspired by last Saturday’s reunion of Buffalo Springfield at Neil Young’s annual Bridge School benefit to play some of the selections from their set list. Heard some new stuff from Philistines Jr., Belle and Sebastian and No Age and plugged the free Peter Case concert the station is sponsoring Nov. 3 at the student center Underground at Trinity.
