Re: Old Timey Music for Howard and DC

I was trying to imagine some Eno/Manzanara/801 as 'Yacht Rock' of a sort. Maybe? The Paw Paw Negro Blowtorch on Key West?

I was never more hipster than when the first post-Roxy Eno and Manzanara records came out. So damn hip. Great records, too bad no one bought them.
