January 20, 2018

  Play Now [2:15:00]

From American Bandstand to Todd Rundgren and Philly soul, to today's artists like the Roots, Dr. Dog, Low Cut Connie and the War on Drugs, Philadelphia has produced some great music. But what about Philly during the time of Teenage Kicks? This week -- oh, we don't know why -- we'll match up Philly vs Minnesota bands going head to head. It's like Tarkenton vs Jaworkski, but instead it's the Dead Milkmen vs Husker Du, The A's or Curtiss A, the Hooters or the Replacements. Hall and Oates or Prince? Hear how our cities state up against each other on the turntable -- this week for Teenage Kicks.
