Alternative Milestones

Alternative Milestones Episode 55 – Happy Valentine’s Day Eve!

Thu, Feb 13, 2025

Well, if Valentine’s Day is a thing you do – I hope you’re ready for it.

Alternative Milestones is a thing I do, and I AM ready for it.  All kinds of great music from 1970 through 2020 and everything in between.  You’ll hear in Memoriam tracks from Visage and The Stooges.  Birthday celebrations for Bronski Beat, Jet, The Academy Is… and Genesis (x2!).  Music release milestones include Talking Heads, Primus, Spanish Love Songs, Placebo, Midnight Oil, Hot Chip  and many others.

And there’s a Rush milestone to share as well.

It all starts at 1 PM today and I hope you’ll join me!
