Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 9/9/16 1:24pm Lane Gray:

We are allowed to change lanes, but the first symptom of highway hypnosis for falling asleep at the wheel is drifting out of the lane

Drift.

Like being said. My last co-driver, the one with three wrecks in five weeks, took out somebody's bumper cover by drifting out of his Lane

I'd think the turn signal would tell the system you're out of your lane on purpose.

My boss is too cheap for one of the dash cams that integrates with all of the controls, it just sits here in the dash with no inputs other than microphone and two cameras
  Fri. 9/9/16 1:26pm Dean:

I know from experience. I was struck on 5 in Southern California by a truck/trailer that drifted into my lane. My car spun perpendicular to the flow of traffic, conveniently settling directly in front of the truck as it slowed to a stop. I looked out my driver's side window. I could read MACK.

Avatar Swag For Life Member Fri. 9/9/16 1:30pm Alex In Illinois:

If it has a mike input, maybe somehow it can be programmed to accept a voice command to indicate that you are awake before you make a lane change. But that would be for the programmers at the device vendor to figure out.

I have had much less exposure to the Goons, @Lane. Something about Firesign highlighted (for my young mind) the almost sinister aspects of "hippie culture." Did the Goons mine similar territory?

Max Geldray blew the hell out of the harmonica. Can't forget the Conk

The company met a sad end, and now Amazon owns all of the old BBC Radio recordings. Blergh.

I found a shelf full of Goon Shows on open reel in KBOO's catacomb-like archive dead storage area last night.

Wow, @Rich. Score.

You lucky man
Avatar Swag For Life Member Fri. 9/9/16 2:04pm Rich in Washington:

I am hoping they're on the list to be digitized. Also, the original Hitchhiker's Guide was all there. And some Ken Nordine's Word Jazz - I think his 80s shows.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Fri. 9/9/16 2:07pm Jeff Golick:

Sweet set, @UM. Funky stroll.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 9/9/16 2:07pm Uncle Michael:

I sent Nordine a record to autograph and he went overboard with the inscription. I treasure it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Fri. 9/9/16 2:07pm Rich in Washington:

the station got a grant (I think) to digitize its tape archive but I think it only applies to content which originated at the station - tons of rare stuff that was sent in by other stations, later sent via ISDN and taped to open reel.

who knew a stroll could be a pimp walk?
Avatar Swag For Life Member Fri. 9/9/16 2:08pm Rich in Washington:

Ken is great! Someone once gave me his number and suggested I call him but I was too chicken! He's in his 90s now, slowed down considerably but I guess still active.

At 14, all of Pimp's Walks are strolls (Pimp, actually Pimpin, is our superannuated pit bull

Weird, I assumed this was a recent recording because of the way it sounded.

Long John! A relatively obscure 70s figure who means a lot to me for reason I won't bore you with.

baldry was a talent
and a queenly piece of work
Avatar Fri. 9/9/16 2:18pm chromaphone:

Wow, I also assumed Baldry was black.

don't think I know this Wade song - a good one
Avatar Swag For Life Member Fri. 9/9/16 2:21pm Parq:

Remember "English Bob," the character played by Richard Harris in Eastwood's "Unforgiven"? Baldry looked kinda like that.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 9/9/16 2:21pm Uncle Michael:

not very!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 9/9/16 2:23pm Uncle Michael:

Baldry is a lot longer than Harris
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 9/9/16 2:25pm burke:

That guitar sound is totally psychotic..

baldry meant a lot world-wide
not so much lower 48

It must feel weird to be a popsicle.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Fri. 9/9/16 2:29pm Parq:

Hmm. Well, I remember seeing Unforgiven and thinking "Is that Long John Baldry?" Maybe it was just coz Baldry had a very similar black suit when I saw him ca. '72.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 9/9/16 2:31pm Uncle Michael:

I'm just saying Baldry is really, really tall.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 9/9/16 2:35pm Roberto:

All right already, I'll vote for him.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 9/9/16 2:36pm Roberto:

OK turns out he's not on the ballot this cycle, and is unlikely to be at any future date seeing as he died 10 years ago.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 9/9/16 2:37pm Lane Gray:

I can't wait for this show to resume, but I can't remember if it's Mock the Week or HIGNFY
Avatar Swag For Life Member Fri. 9/9/16 2:40pm Parq:

Wow, from Baldry to the Nice. You really are playing my 70s today. Got any Sha Na Na coming up?

Saw Eddie Harris with Scofield in the 90s. It was so amazing. Apparently he did comedy for a while, but I've never heard any recordings.

Thanks for being here, everyone...see you next week.
