Alternative Milestones

Alternative Milestones Episode 30 – Singles!

Thu, Aug 22, 2024

Lots of Milestones for single release anniversaries this week, including one where the version released as a single was vastly different (and WAY cooler) than the one on the album.

I’ve got 3 songs suggested by friends of the program/Facebook followers (https://www.facebook.com/drjayontheradio) who saw milestones listed on my daily posts and had songs they wanted to hear.  I LOVE THIS!

We go back the debut albums for Red Hot Chili Peppers, Portishead, Mighty Mighty Bosstones and Live (before they were even called that).  And we’ve got deep cuts from Everlast, Sparta, Split Enz and Ocean Colour Scene to celebrate birthdays.

It’s gonna be a fun one – seeya then!
