Another beef with broadcast radio


So I’m beboping in my hooptie to work yesterday, listening to a local pop station, Movin’ 107.5.  They were playing “Waterfalls” by TLC, a 90’s tune that brought back a lot of memories from high school.  Reminds me of Gerald “T-Bone” Tibbins.
 But as I got about 2/3 of the way through the song, I remembered […]

1980s Professional Sports - MTV style

Bobby Peru’s Jerkmusic page
“Hotjuice, Agitfunk & Antiphonex”
I’ve been listening to the first podcast over and over - I haven’t even downloaded the second yet because I love the first one so much. Especially around the 9 minute mark the song “If I gave you a party” - LOVE IT! And the song around the 21 […]

By LARRY McSHANE, Associated Press Writer

NEW YORK - Bobby “Boris” Pickett, whose dead-on Boris Karloff impression propelled the Halloween anthem to the top of the charts in 1962, making him one of pop music’s most enduring one-hit wonders, has died of leukemia. He was 69.
Pickett, dubbed “The Guy Lombardo […]
