Downloaded the new Radiohead album and played three cuts, augmented by three songs from their past and a couple of Flaming Lips tracks to boot.
Heralded spring with new stuff from the Baseball Project, also something new from Adele and something very old from the onetime star of “Mama’s Family.” Started with the Buena Vista Social Club and ended up with a lot of Jonathan Richman, in honor of his impending show in the area.
