WGTB and WAMU Shows from 1978, 1979, 1981

Robbie sent his last batch of Radio Shows from classic FM 'Underground' Radio from the D.C. area.
Should be some interesting stuff here about the closing down of WGTB

I want to thank Robbie again for all the hard work to get these shows out there for us all to have and share!

  3. many many thanks sir!
    I 1st met John in the 'gtb studio in the fall of '77 -
    he was getting ready to play The hot import of 'Before and After Science'
    by Eno o/c, and I had brought with me the new private rls of 'Are We Not Men' (we are devo)
    it was quite the conundrum that sunday night...
    Mr. Paige became a fan of the boys from ohio that night...

    thanks again Sir, I also supplied Chris Thompson with some obscure rock-a-billy and Ralph Records stuff...
    those were the days...
    Another highlight was walking down the stairs outside of the Childe Harold after watching the Ramones 1st DC gig,
    may 20-30 folks there, and having Cerphe from HFS thrust a mic in my face asking about the future of punk rock,
    true hilarity!

    thanks again Sir -
