I have to admit, I really enjoyed this show (not that I don't enjoy them all, of course). There was a fair mix of styles but it all pretty much fit my palate and, hopefully, that of many listeners as well. I was particularly pleased to be able to play the entire "King Kong" "suite" from the 2nd CD/4th side of the Mothers of Invention's Uncle Meat recording. I also drew on a fair number of compilations from the CJSW library this week; this produced some interesting finds so I think I'll do more of that in the future.... but not next week!

Next week, as mentioned, is the annual Breaking The Tethers CJSW Funding Drive show. Your support will be very welcome. More information can be found at http://cjsw.com/funding.html. As well, see my recent posts on this blog.
