Spring Equinox Blow-Out

No. 67, March 24, 2010.

Naval Aviation in Audio celebrated the Spring in 2010 with its second annual playing of Igor Stravinksy’s Rite Of Spring. This time the sacrificial audiobook was Peggy Klaus’s Brag! The Art Of Tooting Your Own Horn Without Blowing It, and supplemental thunder was supplied by the mixed CD Winnipeg Riot: 18 Killers From Canada’s Musical Murder Capital. Corporate careerism enmeshed in scenes from Pagan Russia collides with jolts of Winnipeggan punk.
