Stuck In Thee Garage #458: January 13, 2023

 

Archaeologists have cool jobs. They discover artifacts from bygone eras and analyze the impact those artifacts had on the people who were around at that time. In some ways, music is similar. It can tell you a lot about a particular time and place. This week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I looked back at the music of 1993 (THIRTY YEARS AGO!) in hour 2. It was the peak of the indie rock explosion and it was good. We just had no idea how short-lived it would be.
