Did Kim Fowley ever call in with an excuse?

Apparently, Bermuda shoes are a type of women's sandal. Haven't been able to track down defining characterstics, nor deduce any from the pics I've seen.

Sat. 5/31/08 10:58am From: Thomas

Oh boy, this music makes my day! thanks!

Sat. 5/31/08 11:00am From: Carol

Bermuda shoes. One of the 2003 styles of the English shoe company Shipton & Heneage. Costs &pound;59 in navy with brown leather

Sat. 5/31/08 11:08am From: Gregory

Hey Michael,
My #1 Hit Club card arrived over the week, thanks!

Sat. 5/31/08 11:17am From: Carol

I think that shoe might be a loafer

Sat. 5/31/08 11:33am From: Glenn L

Sounds like the Bermuda Shoes they were referring to could've been a Sandal or maybe even a Flip-Flop.
If the song were a #1 Hit today they'd be referencing Crocs!

Sat. 5/31/08 12:29pm From: Joff

Nice program once again, Mr. Shelley. One request, though, I prefer the interview intermingled with the relevant songs. I suppose this way the non-interested could easily jump it and that it might take less editing, but it plays a bit long and arid for my taste. Thanks for the great music and interesting interviews. Cheers form Spain.

Sun. 6/1/08 8:24pm From: Snake

Now listening to the archive on Sunday night. I agree with Joff that the Gottehrer interview was great. One of your best. Loved the Liquor Giants song, I'd forgotten about them, didn't pay enough attention to them when they were around.

Mon. 6/2/08 3:19pm From: Steve

Good interview with Gottehrer! Did I hear you correctly, at the end, say, "Who are the Ravonettes?" Check with Bill Kelly. And play their version of My Boyfriend's Back. Keep playing the #1 music, Michael.
