Episode 17: Hitsville, U.S.A.
It’s Tuesday, March 3, 2009 and on this soulful episode of Stuck Between Stations, the guys delve into a couple of their favourite Motown tracks. Recorded in the basement at Hitsville, U.S.A., these classic cuts from The Supremes, The Contours, & the Temptations are sure to brighten your day. And if they don’t there’s always, “Tea for the Tillerman”. Other show highlights include Nick and Dan’s first attempt to play vinyl on air (Will they succeed? You’ll have to tune in to find out!), the folk stylings of Billy Bragg & Wilco, and one of the greatest pop recordings of all time, The Beach Boys’ “Don’t Worry Baby”.
Here’s the direct link to this week’s show:

I‘m sure many of you are like me and one of the first things you do in the morning is head here and check out the new post. Along with seeing the new posts, I’m also always checking out the blog roll rss feed and watching them grow, or shrink sometimes. In one of my past …but all in all excellent site. Keep it up!
