The Wall Street Occupation Prophecies, 8.25.11
October 3rd, 2011 by johnny modern
The master class may be small, they say. But they have lots of gall. So historical consciousness begins with this show recorded in late August, 2011, shortly before the revolution began. Marlene Hershey (Lancaster media darling) and her gospel organ mix it up with Jay-Z and Gang of Four; class resentment continues with The Cure and Jimi Hendrix; Cramps, Kiss, Alberta Hunter, Preston School of Industry, and Grinderman; songs of transcendence and Wobbly working-class tunes; and the Peacemakers sing of blood upon your hands.

A little bit country this week with Savoy Brown rockin’ on the radio; yet our headcoat is on backwards; John Hartford flies around; remembering Poly Styrene, Jak Airport, and our germ free adolescence; sublime Bowie vocals in your right headphone, nobunny cites the Cramps, Chicago Style. Flowers bloom and karma comes down.
