It is produced by David Weinstein and Outpost Artists Resources operating out of the Ridgewood section of Queens, NY, where you'll find more yellow bricks than on the road to Oz and the cemetery of your choice is never more than a few blocks from home.

OMG! Bob Fass changed my life!!!Discovering his show at the edge of the dial on my parents console radio that had FM stations before FM was even a popular thing in the mid sixties- I volunteered on his show when I was like 15!

I didn't hear WBAI until well past its church-glory days. But I guested on a few shows there and helped Citizen Kafka with the Free Music Store revival.

KPFA was the station that introduced me to unusual music. Unfortunately I don't remember any of the particular DJs except John Gullak's "No Other Radio Show".

Hi David and everyone!

Hello, ranjit. For me, radio turned upside down when a DJ on WDAI in Chicago ordered a pizza on the air.

This Stephen Scott is only sounds produced by many folks on a single piano? Ah, just saw that bows are involved hence the drones.
