First time i heard the song ‘Border Radio’ it was the Dave Alvin solo version, on a rough trade compilation. The green one. The liner notes for this comp are entertaining and informative, so from there i ended up seeking out the film as well as the blasters original.
Now the eggheads at the criterion collection will give you the blah blah shizzle on this; alison anders first film blah blah, UCLA blah blah, gritty b&w blah blah, post punk end of days blah blah.
We’ll just give you the trailer for this cool film featuring John Doe, Chris D and Dave Alvin among others. And a wee bit o Dave too!
