Hit list! Think about Wesley so much.
  5:25pm
Marie in Chicago:

I used to see Wesley around drawing in different places around this one neighborhood in the 90s
Avatar 5:26pm
dan in wisconsin:

Wesley's art went up for auction on his website a few years back, and I wish I'd had the cash to purchase his amazing Michigan Ave drawing. That guy might've had a photographic memory. He'd marker in details like individual license plates on all of the cars in the traffic scene.

@laurapanic he also wrote “imagination rain.” Definitely pushed the psych side of early Sesame Street.

Philip Glass singers on Koyaanisqatsi? This is rad.

@dan reminded me of Joan La Barbara, also on Sesame Street, doing ASL alphabet

dan in wisconsin:

↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:42
Yeah, it could be. I know I've heard those particular singers somewhere and the arpeggios are textbook Glass.

↳ dan in wisconsin @5:28
Hey dan, that is a great video. Thanks for sharing! I never knew how talented he was. He seems very nice and kind of childlike. Thanks for sharing! I also saw him and his band play live once and it was fantastic.

Marie in Chicago:

oops, repeating myself
Avatar 5:45pm
dan in wisconsin:

Aha! Yeah, Wesley was a gentle giant. He had a rough life for a while there. Lots of nerve-shattering hell bus rides, in his own words. One time my friend got an autograph after a show and Wesley pulled him in close and said said he would beat people up for him if he wanted. lol
  5:45pm
Listener Bryan (the Professor):

@dan you’re right it’s glass, for another sesame sketch a bout circles.

Grace Slick did that pinball animation song I just figured out too. 35 years later. Sesame Street was pretty rad.
  5:50pm
Listener Bryan (the Professor):

Jim Henson himself has a few FMU classics… but yeah, what a source of amazing material. It’s probably why this whole show is hitting my sweet spot. What a great hour.
