The Girls of Barry Records
The Barry Records Label was a shadow imprint label from Toronto, Ontario issuing records from other labels in the US and a handful from the UK - and even had a few of it's own original releases. Labels like Barry made it affordable to buy and to find what would have essentially been import records - and it also created a way for other labels to get their records on local radio stations. I grew up listening to 1050 Chum they played tons of girl group stuff and were really dialed into the teen set. I even uploaded a few of their jingles! Here's a good one! and then here is another fun jingle! Today I play girls issued on the Barry Records label, the girls that first got me so interested in girl groups! Listen here at 7pm Eastern, 4 Pacific or 5 Central!

Whig Out! with author Mike Stax of Swim Through The Darkness
Sunday at 8pm (right after The Real Nitty Gritty) author Mike Stax discusses his new book - Swim Through the Darkness: My Search for Craig Smith and the Mystery of Maitreya Kali on The Whig Out! Hear how Mike became fascinated with Craig Smith's music - first discovering his psychedelic alter ego Maitreya Kali and then realizing it was Craig Smith of the Good Time Singers and Chris and Craig. Hear unreleased music from the Happeners (the TV show that never was), Chris and Craig, plus the strange juxtaposition of the Monkees Salesman and Maitreya Kali's Salesman. It's all happening here on Ichiban!
October is WFMU's silent fundraising month! You can donate in care of the Whig Out! or any of your favorite Ichiban and WFMU programs right here! Thanks!
