Brainwaves – April 11, 2023 – Which do you prefer? Taxis or taxes?

Written by Brian Blum on 11/04/2023

Here at Brainwaves, we’d rather take a taxi than pay taxes. So here’s a show with songs about…taxes and taxis, of course. Music from Leisure Process, David Crosby & Graham Nash, the Steve Miller Band, the Buzzcocks, the Stranglers, Porcupine Tree, and – how could we not – Taxi Taxi. Plus two from Brainwaves favorites Deaf School. Who knew hailing taxis and paying your taxes could be so much fun!
