Set 1: the top side of the Lester Young sandwich. |
|||||||
| Lester Young | "After You've Gone" (side 1, track 6) (Listen: Real) | Lester Young: The Aladdin Sessions | Blue Note Reissue Series | A fast version, it was recorded in early 1946 with Johnny Otis on drums. Otis was later to make a big name for himself in r&b during the 1950's. | |||

|||||||
| Les Chakachas | "Love is like a Violin" (track 4) (Listen: Real) | Arriba! | RCA International | Phat, sentimental sound. Feels like it's the slow song at the record hop. | |||
|
Set 2: the old radio show portion of the evening. |
|||||||
| X - 1 | "Perigi's Wonderful Dolls" (Listen: Real) | Originally broadcast June 5, 1955. | (no label) | A seemingly innocent doll shop...an appointment with doom - for Earth, of course, as doll-like aliens plot to take over the world. Evil Toto! Bad doll! | |||

Set 3: 50 minutes of psych, from light & airy to heavy-duty. (Listen to this set: Real) |
|||||||
| Jojo Hiroshige with Yoshiko Sai | "Crimson Voyage" (track 2) (Listen: Real) | Crimson Voyage | Alchemy Records | Quiet and airy, with high-sounding vocalizing. Almost operatic, in a way. Kind of a mix of experimental and acid. | |||
| Gravitar | "Falling Pieces Of The Mothership" (track 2) (Listen: Real) | A Brief History Of (91 - 95) | MGOGM | A nod to Hendrix and Clockwork Orange near the beginning, it builds to slightly swirly psych rock. | |||
| OAD | "Slimy Crime" (Side A) (Listen: Real) | (a 7") | Japan Overseas | Slower, heavier, echoey vocals floating over the top. | |||
| ST 37 | "The Pleiadian" (CD #2, track 2) (Listen: Real) | Nunavut | Blue Circle | Swirly acid rock. | |||

| OAD | "Double Bind" (Side B) (Listen: Real) | (a 7") | Japan Overseas | Heacy psych rock, druggy & deep, fairly slow, and hallucinatorially swirly in the background. | |||
| High Rise | "Door" (track 5) (Listen: Real) | Live | Squealer | Heavy psych rock, more intense than OAD - more raw, and louder. | |||
| Skywave | "Seen It All" (track 4) (begun at -3:10) (Listen: Real) | Live At WFMU September 22, 2000 | (no label) | Heavy, fairly high speed. | |||
