Fanatic! As I’m writing to you, the temperature is going further and further up to eventually climb into the mid 90s. Something to look forward to.
I think I told you about these records a couple of weeks ago but I wanted to remind you again.
There’s a new Osees album called SORCS 80. Of course there’s a new Osees album. It’s a great one too. We’ll be starting tracks as soon as it’s released in August.

Also, the new Dion Lunadon record, Memory Burn, is really good. We’ll start tracks in July.

The new Jack Name album Fabulous Soundtracks is really cool and interesting.

There are a lot of great records coming out this year. I don’t know if you would find this interesting but there’s a 2LP version of King Crimson’s USA album that just came out. That’s the first Crimson album I ever heard. I’ve been a fan ever since. Hopefully my copy arrives next week. I listened to Robert Fripp’s approved version of Earthbound a few weeks ago, so great. Fripp’s been putting out some really full-on reissues and box sets of King Crimson over the last few years. Last year, I conquered the 24 CD Road To Red box set. I did a CD a day. I have the 19 CD On Off The Road: 1981-1984 waiting to go. I really like the Adrian Belew era of King Crimson, especially the third album, Three Of A Perfect Pair.
Before the summer’s over, I’ll try to get some King Crimson music into the show. It’s perfect warm-to-hot weather music.
Tonight’s show survived the treadmill test. I try to take all the tracks to the gym and listen to them in running order as the last draft. I think we’ve got a good one for you tonight.
Thank you so much for tuning in when you can. We’ve been on KCRW since 2009, it’s amazing.
Have a great weekend, stay hydrated and STAY FANATIC!!!
