As we gear up here for next week’s 3D Radiothon 2012, we felt we should up
the local and Australian
quotient in preparation, which was easy since there were so many new
releases fitting that bill which demanded to be played!
There were new singles from King Gizzard &
the Lizard Wizard and the Demon Parade, EPs from a bunch of local
acts including the Sunbirds, Steering By Stars and Sleeptalker, as well as albums from Wolfmother/redsunband offshoot Good Heavens and the Laurels. But it was not all new stuff... as always, we parted the mists of time and played lost gems by
Lotus, the Psychedelic Furs
and Echo & the Bunnymen, plus a track by the
Popinjays from their 1992 ‘covers’ EP,and one from Canada’s
High Dials,
taken from Psychedelica 4, the most recent of Northern
Star Records excellent compilation series before finishing with our current “Artiste of the Month”, the late
great Baterz.....
