Step into Denny’s Den to give yourself a little lift as you make your way through the busy day. Or take a break and make the world go away for a while. Dig on platters a-plenty, from The Chantels to Del Shannon, The Small Faces to Jimmy Reed. And so much more. Maybe some Basie and Kenton? Relax. You’ve earned it!

Good day to Dennis. Good day to all! First time, short time here. I finally know what day it is, and what time it is. So here I am. Your show puts a huge smile on my fave Double D. I'm also keeping a close eye out for a character calling himself, Count Mikeula. He's been lurking around these parts. No good can come from him. Please keep a look for him. Have a great day!!

Speaking of "Our Day Will Come," that mellow-mid-tempo-to-fast bossa nova pop is one of my favorite genres. Ricky Nelson's "Fools Rush In" for example.

I have The Konks version of "King Kong" but never knew Soupy had the original. Black Tooth radiating the 88s, am I right?

Canned Heat's "On The Road Again" (which I love) has to be one of the strangest Top 10 records ever, and just underscores the fantastic variety that was AM radio then.

@Reechie yeah!
  3:32pm
Dan:

I happened to see Phil Ochs at his last public performance, at the "End of the War Concert" in Central Park in 1975. He shared the stage with Peter Yaro, Joan Baez and Paul Simon. It was sparsely attended (in spite of reports I've read claiming a big crowd) and held on very short notice.

Truthfully, I got into Phil's music a couple years later. It was an EVENT for me at that time, with every performer another surpise. I have b/w pics of Joan and Phil, and then I ran out of film. AAAAHHHH!
