Though the broadcast signals may be weak and the DJ budgets minuscule, college radio played a big part in the rise of the alternative music genre and in shaping many a 20 somethings musical taste. Today on the show we discuss 3 albums from the heyday of college radio.

Sisters of Mercy – Floodland (Andy)

New Order – Power, Corruption, & Lies (Don)

De La Soul – 3 Feet High and Rising (Dude)
