KRLX mix #53 (3/1/2020)

This episode of WTAW proffers a lineup whose “loose theme is ’70s cynicism infiltrating mainstream rock. It’ll be fun, I swear!”

DJ Owen delivers on that promise with the jaunty jaundice of Elvis Costello, the shiv-sharp wit of Warren Zevon, the dark optimism of Springsteen, and the stylish sardonicism of Steely Dan. (And if that’s not fun enough for you, he’s thrown in the theme from Caddyshack. Done.)
