Sistine-th comment!

DELIVERANCE is Stealing Orchestra's newest album. It is a master work, a massive opus that begins with the big bang and delivers us to the present day.

Yikes. I've never heard this Arthur Brown before. That must be Vincent Crane on that swirling keyboard.
  12:19pm holland oats:

if you were taking requests i'd request the search party. IF.
  12:20pm Brian in UK:

Prescient, Arthur. Not heard this for over 40 years.
  12:20pm Katya Oddio:

Just found those Obama remixes on the FMA. Crazy stuff, right?
  12:22pm northguineahills:

John Rydren's voice sounds similar to Ken Nordine.

good catch on the great snatch! first i heard that evconcom collage was at work, via ken's show, on headphones. the cubemates had no clue why i was laughing so hard and no way in hell was i gonna inform them.
  12:56pm Carmichael:

From your 1st cigarette to the last one you smoke.
  12:56pm ndbob:

ah the great New Creation!
  12:57pm Katya Oddio:

You win, Charlie! Finally a torture tape I cannot play all the way through.
  12:57pm Carmichael:

This was a real song?!? Like a commercial release?!?
  12:58pm ndbob:

I think the New Creation LP was a private release originally - from Vancouver, if I'm thinking of the right group

Silly rocks, you forget about metamorphic geology and weathering? You are in for changes, too, babies.
  1:02pm holland oats:

great show charlie - i've never heard any of this stuff - perhaps that's why (until now) i've been such a lost soul
  1:05pm northguineahills:

Haven't seen ECC in quite awhile. So much fun!
  1:05pm ndbob:

  1:06pm Holly in NC:

Oh my gosh, what a super show! And Charlie, so glad you seem to like the Boswell Sisters as much as I do, Connee is a heroine of mine.

Hi everyone :-)

Hi Holly!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:09pm charlie:

Hi Holly!
Yep, love them Boswells, and Connee too.

So many heroes in one autotune mashup : )
  1:10pm still b/p:

That Symphny of Science track sounds similar to the recent Misterogers remix bit...musically and in some of the themes.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:11pm charlie:

still b/p -- same guy did them: Symphony of Science = Melodysheep (aka John D. Boswell)
  1:15pm still b/p:

Ahhh, I see. It wasn't just in the weedy garden of my mind.
  1:23pm Snortley:
