May 14, 2010 - Rave and Roll

One of the blogs that DJ Doc checks out on a regular basis is the Rave and Roll blog, hosted by Miss Parker. She is a devotee and afficionado of great music...more specifically, music in that alt-80's vein...tending to the rare and obscure. She is a blogger extraordinaire, archiving playlists of a great show from CFRC-FM in Kingston, Ontario (yes, Queens University), and also helping out on Marsbar Theatre. One of her ongoing features, "Criminally Underrated Artists/Bands", is always a revelation, providing insights into some rather amazing music. Check out Rave and Roll, and while you are at it, mosey on over to Marsbar Theatre for a little look see.

Tonight, the music in the last set belongs to Miss Parker...especially Flash and the Pan's "Down Among the Dead Men" (yes, Doc has this on vinyl). Thanks for the energy and dedication that you put into your blog, and your mad passion for the music that is important to you!
