Wasn't this an fmu dj.

Sat. 10/17/09 9:51am From: Bob g

I'm not positive ,but i think this was on a cassette premium from mid 80's.

Looks like it came from an WFMU comp called All My Children, says it's james price : DREAMING tony brower-violin. I am utterly floored by the swiftness of this, after weeks of contemplation. Wow. Double-wow. FMU: don't ever change.

Re; the Captain Lou Tiddlywinks TV spot - it did run on a few local channels, but MTV refused to air it, saying it was too violent.

Great show Bob !... and if jeff is in shouting distanc "Welcome Back"- I really missed the shrunken planet. Also, I have a feeling this generation is going to have a more intimate acquaintance with boarding houses than the previous.

when was the Captain Lou single from? 1986??

Sat. 10/17/09 10:38am From: Progress Hornsby

The Captain Lou 45 came out earlier than '86, I believe. It preceded the appearance on the Uncle Floyd Show. I think it would have been recorded sometime betweenTiddlywinks ('80) & Grooves In Orbit ('83).
