94.7 FM KTWV - The Wave (8/30/1991)

Описание: A ninety-four-minute trip to the distant past of 1991 by way of audio cassette. This hour-and-a-half block of FM radio was recorded by my best friend, Glenn, after he moved to Long Beach, California. He later shared it with me to show me what I was missing by staying in San Jose. I kept the tape as collateral until he moved back. And then when he did, I didn't return it. The station was 94.7 FM, KTWV - The Wave. The show, the No-Stress Express, was hosted by Don Burns. By listening to Burns' between-song commentary, I've determined that the broadcast likely took place on the afternoon of August 30, 1991, the Friday before the Labor Day weekend. This recording captures some of the more eclectic music that emerged in the late eighties and early nineties. It also captures an acute sense of nostalgia. For me, it's a sense of nostalgia for a place and time I didn't actually experience myself. The word for this, as coined by John Koenig in The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, is anemoia.
