Today's program was perhaps a bit more jazzier show than others recently but still featured the usual BTT variety. I was pleased to be able to play another track from the The Black Lodge Singers; I played their version of the Flintstones' theme in late 2006 and got great reaction at that time. Another fave this week was "The city of Granada on the surface of Mars"; it seems to be about a city on the surface of Mars, that's it. Notable too was O. Rex's version of "Gimme shelter"; holy extreme low-fi Batman!
