Here’s another really unique thing for On This Day in History. For many years, Yo La Tengo has helped WFMU raise money by playing live in studio for a couple hours during their fund raising telethons. The fun twist is this- if you donate $50, they will play any cover you request; or for $100, they will play an actual Yo La Tengo song. So you get a ton of coevrs and at least 1 YLT song that I heard.
This is the full 2 hour and 10 session, including the DJ discussion in between songs. If you want to hear YLT only, skip forard to about 15 minutes.
It’s really a fun listen.
Oh and PS: I know that this photo is from the 2000 WFMU fundraiser, but it was the closest thing I could find to represent this.
