mix.killuglyradio.com couldn’t have kicked off with a more splendid playlist, Urban — great listening!
Looks very fun! I’ll give it a spin later after work.
I wish Duke would rerelease “Feel” separate from the boxset. At least do an download only sale….he must know there is a huge Zappa fan market for that stuff! 😉
Hey, this is good! With some REAL surprises! Like Solitude!!! Or Project Object: I’m not the biggest fan of them, but this acoustic thing.. nice!!! Do it, Mr. DeeJay!!!
Ed Palermo with Bognor Regis… Ed is the best!!!
Gail is frothing at the mouth at the litigious possibilities.
