The big album rock station in IN when I was in high school was Q95 (WFBQ), it's hard for me to put the thought of their morning zoo playing during my morning vocational printing class out of my mind looking at that band name.

Nubians Of Plutonia is a good one to break into planet Ra with.

yeah ultrad - I picked up the 70s reissue on Impulse back in the 80s and it has a far out space illustration. Figured it was from his more out, free 70s period but then I read the gatefold that it was from early 60s...

For sure....I haven't listened to much Sun Ra, but that was really good. Will check out more!

ps thanks for the bay tunes Tom!

I'd say most people moving from NYC are bored unless you really like hiking and such but that sounds like historically excellent timing for a move
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:02am

I remember the first time I heard Polyrock, I must've been around 10 or 11. HBO would sometimes play random music videos between movies, including "Romantic Me." They also played an Undertones video.

When I went to the store, a bunch of Iowan college covidiots came in, most weren't wearing masks or social distancing. The staff was overwhelmed (over 20 of them at once). Some tried to cut in front of me in line, and I gave them the side-eye, and said, "excuse me!', and pointed to the back of the line. The african-american couple behind me chuckled. Think is the Jersey Shore (reality show) was relocated to Midwest. Finally my Brooklyn background paid off.... (at least FL trash is mostly polite).
