<< Mating Calls
The Two Shakes got a visit from Krampus this Christmas and survived to tell the tale! To celebrate, MTS and The Jerk are bringing you two hours of all vinyl spins highlighting their annual holiday record exchange with new finds from @mississippi_records, @greennoiserecords, @clintonstreetrecordandstereo and a couple Denver spots ❤️
There's quite literally something for everyone on today's mix, offering you a nice melange of the kinds of styles and genres you're likely to hear on Mating Calls. Artists include Al Green and Ann Peebles from a new Freedom for the Stallion comp, tracks from the Todd Haynes Velvet Underground documentary soundtrack, Roxy Music's much coveted debut album, and a Fela/De La block we're particularly excited about.
