It's hard to say 'they keep getting better', cause I love all the shows. But this one is inspired, with Love Machine setting the tone, and Down Home Ups keeping me laughing for the full run of the song. Great show! -Rich
Stepfather,
Just discovered your blog last week and am loving it.. Great music, great stories, great spirit!
My comment consists of two queries, unrelated to this post or to each other, so I hope you'll forgive the intrusion--Both of these questions have vexed me for years, and now that I've discovered your blog, I'm throwing these out to you:
#1: I have an old scratchy LP by Julius Cheeks, "At the Gate I Know", but no longer have a turntable! I would love to find a CD or MP3 version--have you ever come across this album in either format?
#2: In the early 80's, Michael Jackson recorded a song with Mick Jagger that was all over the airwaves in New York one summer. All I remember about it was that it was a rip-roaring piece of funk and part of the chorus was "You got me chicken-fried!" None of my friends remembers it or believes me when I mention it.
Thanks for your time, and keep doing what you're doing--it's great!!! --Kent in NYC
Kent, thanks for the kind words. Unfortunately, I don't have much to offer with respect to either question, but perhaps one of this blog's readers can. My friend Cies is the gospel expert!
Great podcast as usual. I really do like the radio ads mixed in the podcast.
Regarding Kent's two questions.
Yes there was a Michael Jackson & Mick Jagger duet released in the early eighties. Title "State of Shock". Check Wikipedia for more info.
The Julius Cheek album "At The Gate I Know" (Savoy LP14608) from 1981 is as far as I know not reissued on CD. Shortly after the recording of this album Julius Cheeks passed away.
