Detonation Radio five: The Desire for an Aquatic Life: Watercraft in Popular Song.

AKA the dreaded BOATMIX. As I struggle to get Detonation Radio onto the schedule it's supposed to be on, I proffer the latest installment in record time. Originally intended as a mix CD, instead it goes out on the podcast, a mix CD for the world. If you don't know how to work the podcast by now, you never will, so I'm going to stop explaining it. Commentary for some or all of these tracks will probably arrive sometime when it's not almost 3:00 AM.

1. The Golden Arm Trio - "Swift Ship Sailing"
2. Centipede E'est - "Sinking Boats"
3. The Monorchid - "S.S. Hopeless"
4. Wire - "Marooned"
5. Elvis Costello and the Attractions - "Shipbuilding"
6. Brian Eno - "The Big Ship"
7. The Golden Arm Trio - "Late Ship Wandering"
8. Charlie Johnson and His Paradise Band - "The Boy In the Boat"
9. Country Teasers - "Prettiest Slave On the Barge"
10. The Philistines Jr. - "The Voyage of the S.S. Danehower"
11. Bedhead - "Liferaft"
12. Palace Music - "Ohio River Boat Song"
13. Galaxie 500 - "Tugboat"
14. Polvo - "Fast Canoe"
15. Hanatarash - "Boat People Hate Fuck"

Next time around, Detonation Radio lives up to its name. Oh the plans I have.
