WFMU: Burn It Down! with Nate K.: Playlist from December 17, 2017

Burn It Down! with Nate K.: Playlist from December 17, 2017

Music for the revolution in my head: choogling punks; power pop, both skinny-tied and long-haired; soul shouters and girl groups; bubblegum and acid rock; global fuzz; weirdos and outsiders, and the Weirdos and the Outsiders; Archie Shepp and J. Geils. Plus, live bands.

December 17, 2017: Some Christmas music implied.
