this is on my playlist of fake Bo Diddley songs. There's a lot of 'em! If I ever do a fill-in show, I might play (some) of it. If people could stand it..?

They only had a couple of LP's before they split about 10 years ago. Charming song indeed!

Will you be doing your annual Summer Show this year, Jeff?

A Summer Show? I like the sound of that. Surfing at the beaches of St Louis!

Wasn't planning on it - left that behind at the old station. Will think about it, though. (Would have been today.)

Ah, well I understand wanting to start fresh.

I'll miss it. Always the kickoff to Summer. And a reminder to get started on mine (and John's)

Thanks for the reminder. Now you have me thinking about doing it. Might actually be more fun doing it here!

At least we got some Beach Boys.

This song was orig called "Hang On To Your Ego" but no one understood what that meant, so Brian Wilson changed it, haha.

↳ Song: "Music to Watch Space Girls By" by "Leonard Nimoy"
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Nimoy had nothing to do with this track.

Unless maybe he was conducting. The Leonard Nimoy Orchestra
