I don't remember if I mentioned this before: The Swami Sound System, a weird but excellent radio program that's on Saturday nights here in San Diego (94.9 FM, a.k.a. FM 94/9"). It's hosted by the Swami—really a member of Rocket From the Crypt under an alias—and it's three hours of whatever he feels like playing, usually a mix of garage rock from the '60s, punk and funk from the '70s, etc., virtually all from little-known or unknown bands (though he did dedicate his entire three hours to Electric Light Orchestra one night).

It's on from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. Pacific Time on Saturday nights. It's on right now as I write this, so if you're reading this shortly after I posted it, you can go tune in now. But don't despair if you got here late, because lucky for you, they've started archiving it as audio on demand; just follow the Swami Sound System link above.
