re:23 My wife loves Def Leppard. Cheese factor up 100 fold? Hrm, wonder what
would happen if she bought that new album. Most of the music she likes to
listen to is terribly cheesy.

Realworld's 10 out of 10 CD sampler. It has a lot of great world muisc that
I haven't heard before. I especially enjoy the track by Afro Celt Sound System
(which is playing right now).

The Afro Celt Sound System rules. Lumen, in re:25 -- I got the new Def
Leppard album. It's much better than Slang. I listen to it at work.

The Gerbils, "Are You Sleepy?" - more Elephant 6 stuff. Not that
great, actually.

re:28 so I saw. So-- could you recommend it? Maybe I'll surprise her
with a copy.

We Saw The Wolf, ON THE SHORE. Impossibly obscure vaguely folk-rock
band from Massachusetts. I'm glad to have something by them which isn't
on a cassette; eventually I'm going to have to try to make CD dubs of
those fragile cassettes. (A topic for another item!)

Joel Mabus, "Touch a Name on the Wall". You would be freaked
if I told what radio show it was from.

Right. Back in 1988 or so, I noticed that I had demented tunes
in my record collection that Dr. Demento was not playing. Over the
years, I would send him both folk and filk tracks to listen to and
air. On sending Dr. Demento Joel Mabus "Hitler Was A Vegaterian"
I also included "Touch a Name on the Wall" as an example of good serious
folk music. He used it on the September 8, 1991 show, with folk funnies
as the special topic. Joel Mabus now knows to send his new releases to
Dr. Demento.
Other artists I have introduced to Dr. Demento include The
Chennille Sisters, Tom Smith, Michael Longcor and Christine Lavin.

when * where is his show on locally these days?

*that* I would like to know. I listened to the show when I lived with my
parents, and it jumped to an FM station from an AM talk station before I
lost track of it (I think it went off the air). I doubt it plays
anywhere near the Central WA area.
Things just haven't been the same since the suits wrested distribution
rights from him. Dr. Demento hasn't had a live program in years.

Various artists, "This Is What Summer Is For." Live compilation from the
WOMAD Festival at Reading, 1997. Exceptionally fine mix. Fished out
of the clearance bin at Where House Records in East Lansing, this
afternoon.

Judy Collins, "Live at Newport," from the early 1960s. I wish the
first four Judy Collins albums -- the purist folk revival ones --
would get reissued on CD.
