Every Friday evening from 5-7, and Saturdays too I think, WBLS does some just awful mix show that sounds like they just picked some guy up of Rogers ave and said to him "play whatever you want for the next two hours, but make sure the transitions are jumpy, the cutting is amateurish, and, for good measure, play an annoying sound effect, like a ships foghorn or something, every forty seconds." And, on top of all that, the jocks get gassed when they sample a little talking heads or police. First off, "it's alright" the beanie Siegel, I think, track already explored Talking Heads based loops (not to say there aren't ample opportunities for looping old talking Heads songs into rap tracks, but once in a lifetime is not new ground worthy of blowing the foghorn for) . Secondly, if I want to hear a new wave mix, I'll do what I did in college, drink one too many buds and click the mouse to reposition the player.
Wbls would much better serve the community by doing, in that timeslot, a 75-85 disco show.
