You Know Who... Is Searching for a Connection

Terje Rypdal

Started off today with a few more records from the trip. Having blown through most of the Italian prog rock, the unifying theme of the first part of today’s show (if it can be said that there was one), was English artists who are… I don’t know. I suppose a little off-center? The tunes from this day in history were pretty multifarious, genre-wise, including a couple of artists I’d never played before or paid enough attention to. That segment ended with a nice one-two punch of Dio, which was pretty groovy. To be honest, though, I think that internet issues messed things up the flow of the show a bit, and by the end, I kind of ran out of steam. I pulled a couple of nice cuts out of the back-burners and called it a day.

For All of Your LIC Radio Needs…

It feels a little inappropriate that I should be starting this site. After all, LIC Radio was Walker’s baby. He brought together a community both of listeners and broadcasters that has been a source of light-hearted diversion in good times, and a source of comfort and connection in dark times. Yeah, I know I might be making it sound too significant for a platform that used to host a segment called “Fart of the Week,” but sometimes you need to get your head into the gutter in order to gaze at the stars. In any event, a while back a friend hit me with a “hey, what’s that song” kind of query, and asked if there was some kind of way I could post the playlists from the shows. Hence this blog. It may lack bells and whistles, and not nearly enough pornography to justify any use of bandwidth, but if you listen to a show (at least one of the “You Know Who…” segments) and want to know what that song was or who that artist was, it’s here. And if you didn’t listen to the show, there’s a link t...

Roberta Flack 1937-2025 Today I paid tribute to the recently deceased Roberta Flack, joked (too soon) about how a pissed off pet cat maybe responsible for the deaths of Gene Hackman and his whole family (bad taste, I know), and explored my love/hate relationship with Journey. Also played some amazing songs by Talking Heads, Joe Jackson, and Edgar Winter’s White Trash.   Click here to check it out: LICRadio 2/27/2025     Rick Wakeman “Anne of Cleves” (Rick Wakeman) BBC Studios, London, UK, 2/27/73 Studio version released on The Six Wives of Henry VIII   (A&M, 1973)     Roberta Flack "I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)" (Michael McDonald, Ed Sanford, Jerry Leiber, Mike Stoller) City Hall, Sheffield, UK, 10/22/84 Originally recorded and released by Michael McDonald on If That’s What It Takes   (Warner Bros., 1982)     Daddy Long Legs “C—ksucker Blues” (Mick Jagger, Keith Richards) Single A-side (Norton, 2010)     The Mynah ...
