speaking of the masterful arrangement on 'Porpoise Song"!, a tribute set or show to Jack Nitzsche wouldn't be a bad idea.

I've noticed that when you cut out, and i hit 'refresh,' the audio returns.

Sheena's drunk again, the naughty girl!

this is the same thing that happens to me with GG's shows all the time cut/in out and it drops it and I have to restart
Avatar 📖 7:23pm
Mr Fab:

the stuff from the SHeena stream that cuts in is often appropriately Demento-like.

When I worked customer service at Rhino, if I couldn't answer the music question, and the folks in A&R couldn't, I would call Barry Hansen and ask him. Every question I ever asked him -- questions that stumped us collectors at Rhino -- Dr D could answer off the top of his head. Always blew me away and was always friendly as could be. Hi Greg!

Did I imagine this or was there a US DJ called The Weird Beard? 60s?
Avatar 📖 7:56pm
Mr Fab:

don't know the Weird Beard, but I think I'm already a fan!
Avatar 7:56pm

@ GG - Not out of the realm of possibility, but I'm drawing a blank. Yes, I may already be a fan!

"Monster Hash" was a good one. Same band that did "Smoke Two Joints"?

There was a super old BBC radio show about John Peel and I vaguely remember this ident about him
Avatar 7:57pm
spacebrother:

@ Fab - Yes, the same guys.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:58pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Kind of like a female Joe Meek style singer singing "The Weird Beard" over Sheena type music. I'll have to dig into Google! :-)

I guess they were just a bunch of stoners.

Aha!! Russ Knight - KLIF in Dallas! Apparently, he knew Jack Ruby and so was investigated by the FBI after the Kennedy assassination.
