Good stuff. I wish I was around for the glory days of WBCN. A while back, maybe 4 or 5 years ago, WBCN were saying goodbye to Oedipus and played an old tape of him and the Clash singing YMCA by the Village People. Would anyone have an MP3 of this clip?

I too miss WBCN....it formed much of my musical taste.
For it to disappear like it did is almost a crime...Boston radio hasn't been the same.
