Episode 12005 - For Listeners with More Sensitive Musical Ears
Welcome to Episode 5
What strange times we live in. In this episode we imagine better days with glasses of lemonade in our hands, tight sweaters, and just a little bit of gin to keep things interesting. And for those with more sensitive musical ears you may want to skip the third 78 selection. We’re just saying. Otherwise be ready for what may be the first punk rock song. At least the first issued on 78. This is the dawning of a new era.
And please help us “Set the record Straight” by leaving your comments on our webpage, on our Mixcloud page, or on Facebook.
We hope everyone is staying healthy and safe in the age of Covid-19.
Thanks again for listening!
- Marc & Tim
