Stereo lab I have memories of 1994. Listening to a Stereolab cassette on a mono player in an attic at the shore in Atlantic City in a $200 a month room in the attic for free building a metal hand about 2 feet long.
I also picked up a local college radio DJ. I phoned in from a payphone. She had cool taste in music.

Parq:

Apropos Rev TD's suggestion, I think that giving Kenny G a show and having him not show up week after week would be very much in the ole' poet's style. Just air random sounds for the length of the show each week. Collages of real traffic reports, that kinda thing.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:28pm
Little Danny:

No bad version of "Little Sunflower"
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:28pm

We'd love to have KG back on the air, but it was his choice to depart. He's busy doing a zillion other projects.

I listen to modern country. It's just three chord rock and roll with a simple story and maybe a hook. Some pretty good songs actually if you just strum them on a guitar and sing. Makes the girls smile anyway.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:04pm
crateslinger:

I find it humorous that every song has tailgate, a dirt road, a blue eyed honey in a baseball cap. Like the old momma, jail, and trains.

No sorry. He played "Downtown" Great song

There is nothing I believe more than when a country singer says he wants to get some mud on the tires. The unmediated humanness of it, the authenticity, the humanity...
