 Tonight: The Drinking From Puddles Lucky 52 Best Of 2011 Countdown show Part one

Tonight I begin my 30th year in non-commercial radio (and 24th year at KBOO) with the traditional first part of a two-part special commemorating the memorable releases of the previous rotation around the sun. Expect plenty of audio extras as well.... 

Y La Bamba to perform on Drinking From Puddles on 12/14/11 !!

"Y La Bamba makes fractured folk that sounds as if it comes from dog-eared diaries. The author is statuesque Luz Elena, the daughter of Mexican immigrants, whose vintage vocals seem to come from the 78-rpm era." -Buzzbands LA

"...mixes Devendra Banhart-influenced art-folk with hazy femme vocals and traditional Mexican sounds to weirdly entrancing effect." - LA Weekly
