Gordon Liddy, then the local prosecutor.) According to a 2014 Pittsburgh Post-Gazette article, 44 people were arrested, including Fagen, whose long hair was cut off at the Poughkeepsie jail. The upshot in the song is that the singer vows he is \"never going back\" to the college until \"California tumbles into the sea\".\nhttps://bit.ly/3bP9xJa", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3630893, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3630893/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-03-19T04:19:53-07:00", "show": 66219, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66219/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Storm King", "track_id": null, "recording_id": "651c3740-bae3-4b82-9962-4f52aeafe407", "artist": "Bob James", "artist_ids": [ "f4d2fc5a-cacb-47c8-b096-ee73864b1aa8" ], "album": "Three", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": "e71d380d-5679-3524-a079-215892bec325", "labels": [ "Tappan Zee Records" ], "label_ids": [ "48a37305-89ae-48c2-aa04-ced161018e6d" ], "release_date": "1976-01-01", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Off the oft-sampled third LP from American jazz keyboardist Bob James", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3630889, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3630889/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-03-19T04:15:15-07:00", "show": 66219, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66219/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "comment": "", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "airbreak" }, { "id": 3630888, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3630888/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-03-19T04:12:18-07:00", "show": 66219, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66219/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Run It Back", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "De La Soul", "artist_ids": [ "a8ebde98-7e91-46c7-992c-90039ba42017" ], "album": "Cabin in the Sky", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "2025-01-01", "rotation_status": "Heavy", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": null, "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3630887, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3630887/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-03-19T04:09:17-07:00", "show": 66219, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66219/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "girl, get up.", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Doechii", "artist_ids": [ "9f75277c-b283-4846-ac8c-f932255cd0ac" ], "album": "girl, get up.", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "2026-01-01", "rotation_status": "Heavy", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": null, "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3630886, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3630886/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-03-19T04:05:31-07:00", "show": 66219, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66219/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Luchini aka This Is It", "track_id": null, "recording_id": "52589590-83bf-44db-a42a-20b1d66d20d0", "artist": "Camp Lo", "artist_ids": [ "a5474ad8-1671-4ace-a5ea-82df42245bda" ], "album": "Uptown Saturday Night", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": "861232ef-552f-3d14-9719-9f274d1f5238", "labels": [ "Profile" ], "label_ids": [ "e832b688-546b-45e3-83e5-9f8db5dcde1d" ], "release_date": "1997-01-28", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Producer Ski Beatz sped-up and pitched-up the hook from Dynasty's \"Adventures in the Land of Music.\" The song also samples the drums for a983's \"All Night Long\" from Mary Jane Girls.", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3630885, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3630885/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-03-19T04:01:15-07:00", "show": 66219, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66219/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Holy War (live)", "track_id": null, "recording_id": "bf3a2438-82bb-4e86-b744-12bcd2a0ec5e", "artist": "Divine Force", "artist_ids": [ "c1bb5b6f-807f-4796-856e-42c1e61d47ed" ], "album": "Holy War (live) / Somethin Different", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": "e518d0d7-eb4e-3129-913f-33fe02ead3df", "labels": [ "Yamak-ka" ], "label_ids": [ "d119ab59-f310-4fc2-824a-230bd7a1376b" ], "release_date": "1987-01-01", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "The group was named Divine Force, and it was comprised of rappers Sir Ibu, female MC Ice-T (aka Lady Nefertiti), her brother Supreme, and DJ Jizer (short for “energizer”).
