If you like long songs with a (mostly) progressive bent, this is your show!

We’re sliding between the old and the new on this week’s episode. Hear The Smile recorded live at Montreaux and the wonderful Turkish-folk-meets-psych-rock sounds of Şatellites.

Brainwaves invites you to get turned on this week. With Bromshead Jacket, the Shins, the Tubes and Toy Matinee. The Who never want to cut their hair (maybe they should hook up with America’s Sister Golden Hair Surprise). Nick Heyward used to be into hair, too, heading up the band Haircut 100. Are you a Passionate Friend? The Teardrop Explodes sure hopes so. And there’s a dead skunk heading up our 70s pop flashback. It’s all on Brainwaves this week.

Last week, Brainwaves gave you songs about rain. And guess what, it’s still raining! Coldplay is shivering, while Vanilla Sky needs the umbrella originally made famous by Rihanna. Also on the show: “holy” songs from the Lords of the New Church, Matthew Sweet and the Cure. Two songs about Amy/Amie. Sheena is a punk rocker. The Not Sensibles are in love with Margaret Thatcher. And the Barenaked Ladies wonder what would happen if they had a million dollars. (We do too!) It’s all on this week’s Brainwaves! Tune in.

It’s raining outside the Brainwaves studio. It’s raining all over the world, for that matter. So, how about a special episode with nothing but rain songs? Fire and Rain. A Rainy Taxi and a Rain King. Rain City. Doin’ the Rain Dance. Raining Men.. And someone who’s only happy when it rains. But the real question on your lips is: Does it Rain in Southern California? Tune in this week to find out!

Brainwaves presents songs for the months of June, July, August, September, October and November. You’ll hear bands and artists like Pete Yorn, Sufjan Stevens, Shlomo Artzi, Counting Crows, The Shins, U2, The National, Green Day and Earth Wind & Fire. Plus a Nada Surf cover of the Moody Blues (and the Moodies themselves). It’s all coming up on this week’s episode. Stay tuned!

It’s the final episode for Brainwaves A to Z, the special series of the show where Brian plays music from his collection alphabetically. (Don’t worry, Brainwaves isn’t going anywhere.) This week, it’s three letters in one: X, Y and Z. Why? How many songs or bands do you know that start with X or Z? Kicking off with two songs from XTC and ending with Zumpano. What’s in the middle? Lots of Y – Yes, Yuck, Yo La Tenga, Yehuda Poliker, Yael Deckelbaum and Yehuda Ledgley. Plus Y songs from Lisa Loeb, the Decemberists, the Bats, Jason Falkner, Shoes, Nik Kershaw and even Al Stewart (remember Year of the Cat?) Celebrate 26 episodes of A to Z music on Brainwaves this week!

No theme this week, just great music from Nina Hagen, the Tubes, Aviv Geffen, Tislam, Annemarie, Regina Spektor, System of a Down, David Bowie, U2, Archers, Pink Floyd, Nik Drake, Cheap Star and much more. That’s just a taste. Tune in for the whole 2 hour shebang!
