A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

I sort of remember Donovan on the Gentry show. Man, remember the days when performers like the Jefferson Airplane and the Who were on Smothers, and even Glen Campbell had John Hartford as a regular? Contrast that with the Simpson kid on SNL . . .

Had to substitude the butter for margarine and the parmesan for a blend of mild mustard and hippie dust (yeast)
No leftovers and big smiles

Good Lincoln, sounded like her next stop was Jupiter. Reminds me--heard Wobble's latest? I liked 'Mu' alot. Also, are you planning on spinning vinyl and messing with pitch like a few weeks ago. Nice!

Well, I can complain about cold weather in the summer. Here in the west coast Portland we've had only 6 days over 90 all summer long and we've averaged one day a week under 70. What happened to global warming? Can I sue Al Gore?

Holy crapballs that Manual song is gorgeous! Yes, I used "gorgeous" and "crapballs" in the same sentence.

Hi Trouble, Rosa is not the only one listening to your show in Lisbon, Portugal. Here at work we listen to it religiously every Thursday. Thank you for all the great music. Although I don't know Rosa I'm very glad to learn that we're not the only ones.
