Sounds ripped from cassettes & CDs found in immigrant-run mom & pop stores. Deconstructed icons. Field recordings. Sonic mayhem from the far corners of the internet.

August 23, 2023: Comb & Razor Sound
Writer, music historian, producer, researcher, blogger, and DJ Uchenna Ikonne's Comb & Razor Sound released just seven long-playing records in as many years. But the vision, the packaging, the whole approach had a significant impact on reissue culture -- and the music is unimpeachable.

Would have been great to hear him to discuss some of this and his work with you. Maybe with this episode out that can happen in the future.
Yes, the attention to detail on the compilations is superb.

still we watched it occasionally.
i thought the humour was juvenile. (i was like that when i was a juvenile. i thought the same about the mothers of invention but in that case i still do)
i liked watching Roy Clark.
