View DJ Peter's profile |
Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

It's a long way to go.
It's a long way to Perkasie,
To the sweetest 1-year-old I know!
Goodbye, Ocean City,
Farewell, Trenton fair!
It's a long long way to Perkasie,
But my heart's right there.
