Alternative Milestones

Alternative Milestones Episode 62 – Variety is the Spice of Life!

Thu, Apr 3, 2025

The playlist for today’s episode of Alternative Milestones is a great example of why I love the format.  We’ve got music from every decade from the 70’s to today.

1970’s – we’ve got live Lou Reed and a Rush masterpiece
1980’s – The Cure, birthday milestones from The Fixx and Ultravox, and Madness
1990’s – birthday milestones from Mudhoney and Republica, plus Wilco and others
2000’s – New Order, Beck, Morrissey and a great day in pop punk to talk about
2010’s – Black Francis, Death Cab for Cutie, Blur and Circa Waves

Something for everyone today!  I hope to see you at 1PM!
