from popmatters: Fire Engines, out of Glasgow, Scotland, only existed for a couple of years between 1980 and 1981 and only cut one full-length record, 1981's Lubricate Your Living Room. Part of the Scottish post-punk scene, they were the feral cousin of bands like Orange Juice and Joseph K.

“Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom” was the first August Wilson play I ever read. I just watched the newly released film of it on Netflix. Not until an hour into the movie did I realize it was Chadwick Boseman playing Levee (his final role I suppose). This is the same man who played T’Challa? That’s impressive dramatic range.
Brian D 2:25:25 PM
That was cool. Another raunchy one, Ma
Esoterica (host) 2:25:31 PM
