I was a babysitter as a kid and there was a family that "reserved" me for NYE for a few years. The irony was that they would come home just after midnight, within 15-20 minutes after. The husband gave me a ride home and I'd get in just as my parents were eating popcorn and watching Guy Lombardo.

Herbie Hancock doesn't surprise me at all-I saw the Neville Brothers at the New Orleans Jazz Fest in the early 90s...great set, and for the encore they had Hancock come up and sit in on Hey Pockey Way, it was a killer (and long) encore! He has no trouble fitting in anywhere!

my father blasted the morning wor-am in the bathroom, adjacent to the boys' room.
my older brother discovered Jean Shepherd probably ~1971? our bedtime was 10pm and he'd play the radio very low. we were eventually busted, at which time i watched my parents consider what it was we were listening to for a few minutes, then saying we may continue.

i'm not sure we were still listening to it at the end of 1974. the story's familiar but i could've heard it more recently (probably wfmu)
