Otis "with new ears" #27

It's Radiothon! Please phone in your pledge of support. The more calls and pledges we get, the less time we have to be on air to talk about it!

Shopping for a Halloween Costume? Preparing for that wacked out holiday on today's Lunchtime.

An album side of Epic Halloween Proportion --- the original soundtrack of Rocky Horror Picture Show, yes the one with Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, et al.... Side One this week and side two ... next week!

Woke up late and frazzled so the program is more subconscious than usual. It's Radiothon and that means I talk a lot.

"The Blues Will Do Your Heart Good !!"

Rock and Roll from the 1950s and early 1960s Show runs into overtime with Sunset Strip Tacky ending and then at 430am went to emergency archive.

A Covers Show

TODAY we will discuss politics and the arts from the perspective of the Democracy and Jazz project, "Let Freedom Swing". At the heart of this project is retired Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor and musician, composer, educator and Artistic Director of Jazz at Lincoln Center Wynton Marsalis. http://letfreedomswing.org/

Representing the "Democracy and Jazz" project is Teachers College at Columbia University professor Margaret Crocco. She has also served as editor and project leader for the "Teaching The Levees" curriculum based on Spike Lee's award-winning film, “When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts” - we hope to have time to delve into this project a bit as well.

J. David Gray will join us for another segment of our SYNERGY project. His essay inspired me to create the image "bad girl” - be sure to view the image at http://tinyurl.com/lvgvsr or http://www.jimlynchphotography.com there is also a link to David's other writings at http://word-smith.typepad.com/wordsmith
