[bomp] Highs in the (Mostly) Mid-80s podcast series

[Blair Buscareno <blairb@xxxxxxx>]

About 10-12 years ago, I told some friends I'd love to see a Highs in 
the Mid-80s comp series (patterned after the old AIP Highs in the 
Mid-60s comps.) I even mentioned it on Bomp list a few times over the 
years. At one point, it looked like it might happen.

It didn't.

Well, between Kopper trying to get people to do podcasts, him talking up 
the idea of other regional podcasts (like the Florida Rocks series), and 
me doing a couple of different podcasts myself - and having this week 
off - I decided to go ahead and do a Highs In The (Mostly) Mid-80s 
podcast. The first edition is NYC, Volume 1. (There *may* be a second 
NYC volume, as well.) I'm also planning one on Long Island, New Jersey, 
Rochester, NY, and probably Pennsylvania. I could probably pull a Boston 
volume or two together, as well, although perhaps some of our Boston 
compatriots would prefer to take that on.

Oh... That brings me to my next point: I'd like to open this up to 
everyone. There are - rather obviously - people out there who are better 
qualified to cover certain geographical areas than yours truly.

For those of you who want it spelled out: I'm looking for podcasts that 
will have songs that are: (a) garage; (b) from the (mostly) mid-80s, 
although one can stretch that a *wee* bit; (c) geographically similar.

Here's the track list from Volume 1. (Not sure when Kopper will post 
it...Hopefully, within the next week or so.)
