A few of the #newwave #powerpop #garagerock acts (with Music City twang) on this #RadioDaze comp from 91 Rock FM, Vanderbilt's student run radio, took the next step*. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky

#NowSpinning Rock Wars (1980)
Only three acts on this Knoxville #RadioDaze comp from WIMZ Rock 104, but a lot of bases covered. #postpunk #artrock #powerpop #punk from The News (who get their own side of the LP), Balboa, and Spellbound. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky

#NowSpinning KLOS 95½ Rock To Riches (1983)
Despite the Rick, this #RadioDaze comp only has a bit of #powerpop, but is full of LA #heavymetal #hardrock #hairmetal #glammetal bands that littered the lower end of the bill on the Sunset Strip like Rough Cutt #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky

Forgot the #RadioDaze tag for this one.

#NowSpinning Buffalo Rocks Volume One 1981: Rock'n'Roll Animals (1981)
A different Teaser on this #RadioDaze comp along w #punk band Secret Savior, #powerpop group Third Floor Strangers*, #AOR act Cheater & #prog ensemble Parousia who relocated to SoCal. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky

#NowSpinning WDVE: Pittsburgh Rocks (1980)
Sure Michigan rocks, but what about other places? A mix of #hardrock #poprock country rock and more on this #RadioDaze compilation. The wavy #newwave of Teaser is the best of the bunch. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky

#NowSpinning The Best Of Fantasy's (1981)
This Wisconsin #radiodaze entry includes a rare cover (Mony, Mony, recorded live at the tirular club) and a strong mix of #AOR #newwave & #powerpop. Bad Boy, who put out a few LPs on United Artists is the biggest name here. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity

#NowSpinning Houston Home Cookin' (1982)
Onto the tried and true #radiodaze mix of #newwave, #powerpop, and #AOR from 97 Rock, KHMX. Another song from the Z-Rocks EP that includes the #fakepunk #punk cash-in song The Teacher's A Punk was on the Teenline comps. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity

#NowSpinning Home Grown II (1977)
The 2nd volume of KKUA's #radiodaze comp diversifies & gets a bit more contemporary, adding some #surf, #funk, #soul, and #disco to the Hawaiian mix. Nohelani Cypriano put out a few sought-after releases in the '70s & '80s. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity

#NowSpinning Home Grown (1976)
The 1st volume of this #radiodaze series from Honolulu's KKUA might have introduced me to this genre of compilation*. Full of mellow Hawaiian favorites and a lot of #slackkey from the likes of Kapono Beamer & Country Living. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky

#NowSpinning KRST Enchantment Vol. II (1977)
This Albuquerque comp definitely sounds like a product of its environment, full of laidback folk and country with a bit of rock. It also fits in a fun #radiodaze subgenre: entirely songs about the city/state of origin. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity

#NowSpinning Rock 108 KFMG Stroh's Superstar Talent Search (1985)
Albuquerque #hardrock and #AOR on this #radiodaze comp. The bordering on #punk James Blond (obviously not the Stockton #powerpop band, they spell it with an e) is the cream of the crop here #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky

#NowSpinning The 98 Rock Album, Vol. III: The Spirit of Rock & Roll (1984)
A nice mix of #newwave, #AOR, and #powerpop on this #radiodaze comp from WIYY in Baltimore. I own a Bootcamp 12" & a sleeveless copy of the Vission single. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky

Oops, forgot the #radiodaze tag that no one but I care about.

#NowSpinning Home Grown IV (1976)
Another #radiodaze entry, this one part of the long running series from San Deigo's KGB. A standard radio comp affair with a bunch of #folk and pop rock with a little #powerpop and #disco thrown into the mix. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky

#NowSpinning L.A. Soundtrack '76 (1976)
Kicking off some #radiodaze with this SoCal #folkrock #hardrock #powerpop #AOR filled effort from KWST with Legs Diamond & pro-surfer #punk Corky Carroll. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky

This reminds me I need to dig through this box of #radiodaze compilations and pull some stuff out again.

(A teal pen lies across the top of an open journal page upon which, in teal ink, is written:) "Foghorn Lefgorn's Acres of Acorns" was one of my favorite warm-ups in my radio days. Maybe, on a particularly hot day, "the Fresno snow says so." But it'd havta be damn near a hunnert.

Found this jewel today. 1987 ⁦‪@Lufkin_Sports‬⁩ broadcast team at Kyle Field for a Panthers playoff game. (L-R, Don Brister, BH, Stephen Yates! #radiodaze

#NowSpinning KYYX-FM: Seattle Grown (1978)
The only act on this #RadioDaze comp I know is the catchy hardrock Rail & Company, who shortened their name. The (fake?) #punk Destroy Destruction by Feelings is cool. The rest is #newwave #electro #funk & other '70s rock. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity

Forgot to post my haul from the venerable Hungry Ear Records. Some Xian #psychedelic rock, pompy #AOR, #garagerock, #surfrock, and even a #radiodaze entry. I believe I've been to 3 of their 4 locations over the years.

#NowSpinning Mark Haines & The Remains - Go for The Moment b/w I'm Betting On Love "Win Place Or Show" (1980)
Bluesy pop rock from Ohio. He's got another song on the 1982 Q-FM-96 Hometown #radiodaze comp. I like the fold-out poster. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky
