Wall of Voodoo

No – this isn’t going to be a screed on the crazy shit (at ridiculous prices) some of my early stage compatriots are doing these days.  On my run today while listening to Brian Ibbott’s awesome Coverville podcast I heard Authority Zero cover Mexican Radio by Wall of Voodoo (from the Call of the West album).  I was instantly transported back 15 years and sang along as my tempo picked up.  There are definitely days that I wish I was in Tiajuana eating barbecued iguana.

    15 years…I wish…try 25 years!

    Mexican Radio by Wall of Voodoo (Stan Ridgeway lead singer) came out in 1982.

    Brad – I’m with ya on that one.

    VH-1 just replayed the Top 100 One Hit Wonders, a few nights ago, and “Mexican Radio” was in the top 20 or so…

    Brought back similar Iguana-grilling memories…
