A Wicked Company 2012 - ATPJR's Dedication to Trash Flow Radio

We here at LOLOTD and A Wicked Company know it takes two, at least, to spawn love – or, as they say in Cincinnati, nothing, nothing, nothing but love! Consequently, we continue our 2011 appreciation with a mix dedicated to Cinci’s Trash Flow Radio as served up by Ken Katkin and Jon Lorenz, who disseminate the progressive agenda via their weekly rocknroll sermons with art damaged verve and style.

A Wicked Company 2011 - Trash Flow Dedicaxxion from ATPJR on 8tracks

Having been employed in the mixology industry since 1978, this is without a doubt  LOLOTD's 7th or 8th best sequencing of combustible sonic art yet. Our Trash Flow Dedicaxxion includes offerings from American treasures ANTIETAM and ELEVENTH DREAM DAY, resurrected NYC perpendiculars the SCENE IS NOW (and it is!), impresario Bob Pfiefer's return in the guise of the TABBY CHINOS (along side Cynthia Sley, Don Fleming, Bob Bert, et al),  spiritual engendering via Texas sweat loafs CRUDDY, the DIKES OF HOLLAND (albeit with a late 2010 showing), MIND SPIDERS and - with the best song of 2011 - LITERATURE's "Esquire Esquire" (after  the other best song of 2011, LITERATURE"S "Manmade Man"), Gowanus bayou sweetheart ZACHARY CALE, arterial soul from AZITA and under appreciated dark twang from San Francisco's beguiling SANDWITCHES, who, despite their inability or unwillingness to make a live impact, delivered a touching and unforgettable 2011 missive on relational conflict with Mrs. Jones' Cookies. 

We also include exemplars of DAVID KILGOUR's return to form and crust  vitality from HOAX, burning Olympian sensations with an affection for Deep Wound, MILK MUSIC, a concise and revealing autobiographical knockout from KID CONGO & the PINK MONKEY BIRDS, left field trio ruminations from Brooklyn's awesome HOUSEHOLD, sweet honey in the rock from SORE EROS, a haunting rendering of CRABSTICK's Stud or Houseboy? from the TWERPS, reckless neighborly collaboration greater than the sum of its parts from the BABIES, dream weaving shorn of hiss from Ohio's TIMES NEW VIKING and  classic heartbreak from Cincinnati's greatest band not named the Isley Brothers, WUSSY. 

Also, the FEELIES! 

And finally, KEN KATKIN himself, in a super rare recording from the summer of 1991, in which he regales us with a list of what's in and what's out, followed by DEATH OF SAMANTHA, because they rule. Ruled. Maybe to rule again.

¡Viva la Revolución!
