« Tonight in Portland: Go See Some Live Music! | Main | And Now For Something (Somewhat) Different »
Well, there’s not much to be said for terrestrial radio at this point, but Little Steven (aka Silvio) sometimes plays some choice nuggets on his Underground Garage show. In the most recent episode, he pays homage to the birthplace of garage rock, i.e. the Pacific Northwest. The show’s highlights are tunes by bands from the ’60s that hailed from Portland, Tacoma, Seattle and Vancouver—including the Wailers, Paul Revere & the Raiders, and the Kingsmen—so if you’re looking for something to listen to today, you can check it out here. Warning: you’ll probably also hear Pearl Jam, Hendrix, and a shamelessly self-promoting Springsteen tune.
