And there was the King Biscuit Flour Hour
Dammit. I haven't thought about the KBFH in decades... You'll love this...
When I was a kid, my dad was an alarm guy. He had this old Moose Siren laying around the garage, I decided it looked enough like a speaker, I screwed that bitch to the wall at the corner of my bed and ran a piece of 2 conductor from the solder joints on this old radio I had...Believe it or not...IT WORKED!
And that's how I'd listen to the King Biscuit Flower Hour. There was also a show from Westwood One back in the day that came on at 11 or 12 at night..The host would talk about the band for 5-10 minutes at the beginning, introduce the album, and they'd just let the entire album roll. So cool.
Some of us were lucky enough to grow up in a magic time of music. I introduced my oldest boy to "The Who" awhile back..I said...These guys are the best band you've ever heard at this point in your life...and when I was a kid, they were the 4th best band..
Those were the days..
