Transmission 15407

This time we take 12 consecutive artists from the W section of the vinyl rock archives and play them alphabetically: Wishbone Ash, Jah Wobble, Peter Wolf, Bruce Woolley & The Camera Club*, Ron Wood, Roy Wood, World Party, Link Wray, Wreckless Eric, Captain Lou Albano from The Wrestling Album, Gary Wright and Bill Wyman.

T15407 is a 58.3MB 128k mp3 1:03:44 in length made loud to be played loud!

*Bruce Woolley & The Camera Club released their self-titled album in 1979. On it was a cut written by group leader Woolley and future Yes members Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes called Video Killed The Radio Star. The album and the song went nowhere. Also in 1979, Horn and Downes rechristened as Buggles released their version of the tune, first on a single and then on the 1980 lp The Age Of Plastic. This time it hit and earned the somewhat dubious distinction of being the first video to be played on MTV. I hope Woolley made a few bucks in the deal.
