…and bopping along to Perkigoth Radio, whose library sounds a helluva lot like my tape collection during my spiky-haired days of the eighties. So far they’ve played The The’s Uncertain Smile, Yaz’s Situation, The Vapours’ Turning Japanese, Shriekback’s Hand On My Heart, The Lords of the New Church’s Dance With Me and as I type this…Toni Basil’s Hey Mickey? Not gothy, but I’m sure it had the same ironic appeal that Rick James’ Super Freak had for the black-clad club-goers at Toronto’s late Silver Crown (one of my old haunts).
It’s a pity that Perkigoth radio broadcasts only at 56K, which makes it sound like an old AM radio. Mind you, I once spent the summer of ’85 driving a sno-cone truck listening to a radio that had more or less the same fidelity.
I’m clearly putting myself in the “crotchety old man” category by even mentioning these bands and places.
