MP3 & Playlist for Lost & Found, 11/03/08

let's talk turkey
making love new again

getting into the groove



Our Cast of Charcters:

Mark: the DJ, the guy with the mouth, in more than one way.
Sexually frustrated and a portrait in barely contained violence.
He was making the decisions, but is he really in control?

E.O. Set: the old standby, rigid in form but full of surprises. Everything he did might not always make sense, but somehow it always ended neatly.
How long could his lucky streak go on?

Mellow Set: younger sister to E.O. and an independent spirit.
Beautiful yet often dreamy and introspective, she had a way to make a man see the softer side of life. Her rejection of E.O.'s lifestyle is a source of friction.

Nathaniel: born with more style than the Duke of Windsor, but his time was up. He left behind many clues as to his infectious talent, however, as you shall hear.

Playlist: that OTHER cast of characters among the photos.

MP3 & Playlist for Lost & Found, 10/20/08

Please excuse the rather half-assed update, and over 2 weeks late at that. After the show aired, there was no MP3 archive available, which killed my enthusiasm for posting the playlist, with no link to listen to. But somehow the archived stream MP3 was rescued from the abyss, so here it is for your listening pleasure. I already need to get posting the 11/3 show, so you only get 2 photos.

Regardless, it's a great show, you can hear the whole thing by clicking on the Curtis Lee 45 below, and the full playlist is included as always, to keep everything above board.




why not you?

MP3 & Playlist for Lost & Found, 10/06/08

sleep walking
time to drink

On the Needle



Forgive me for being so late, but I found myself in a framus, caught between a dish and a glass, without iron, hopped up and smacked down but full of purpose. I got myself patched up and now it's back to business as usual. And the caper wasn't without reward, for all of us. I recovered the entire contents of a fascinating radio show from all the way back in 2008. Well, maybe not "fascinating" but maybe sorta what you would call displaced. It's all that 60's and 70's stuff, played straight ahead like it was the new sound, not for laughs or nothing!Garage, soul, folk, blues, acid rock - a whole 2 hours of the stuff.

Have a swipe on that 1st Dee Dee below to get the tubes warmed up - and, along with it I discovered an itemized list of contents - reprinted below for your convenience. I'll stick around and make the drinks - I never get enough of this stuff.
