Hi Mick, I've seen him live once and would go again without hesitation. Kenny Vaughn (Fabulous Superlatives' guitarist) plays on the new Pretenders LP and it is mighty fine, in my humble opinion. Of course Chrissie Hynde could record herself reading the phone book and I'd buy it.

I call that painting "Indianterrier." Found it at the JC Sal Army about an hour before the show. Price was $3.99, marked down to two bucks (special today!, but all I had was a five, which I gladly extended with "keep the change." Gonna hang this gorgeous acrylic somewhere here in the WFMU spirit lodge.

I'm pretty sure I remember the bit about "songs no one writes".

"Grandma looks horrible" could really be a hit.
  ♥   Wed. 6/14/17 5:05pm Listener Robert:

I bet the last time this Joe Frank episode aired, I also commented that C&W music is full of the themes he says songs don't get around about. Maybe he'd say that's why C&W isn't so popular.

Wild Neil, last year I was priced out of the goddamn Bronx! So here I am in southern Sussex Co., NJ, where at least WMFU comes in well, sometimes even in stereo.

Which reminds me: Unless she was pulling my leg, I'm afraid Bronwyn C. misunderstood me yesterday, & went to tell Field Marshal Ken about the sporadic E skip as a "problem with the Mt. Hope NY station", when in reality it's a natural phenomenon.

Have I gotten enough milage out of the 3 comments I'm allowed on a show?
