"Paper Moon" October 16, 2009 INTERNET ONLY

(Week 183)

UPDATE: For a limited time download this program in 128k here: HOUR 1 and HOUR 2

This RADIOLA! greets with skepticism any notion of monkeying with the moon.

On a more positive note, we celebrate the music of Perry Bechtel, the extraordinary guitarist and banjoist who helped design the Martin OM-28--the basis of the flattop acoustic guitars now played everywhere. (Many thanks to Paul Alcantara for sending me his excellent article on Bechtel in issue #98 of Guitar Buyer magazine.)

Owing to WHCL-FM being closed for Fall Break, tonight's show will be available only on my Live365 station.

Good program! It's ironic that Obama gets the Nobel Peace Prize and then we bomb the Moon! Hopefully nobody was home...

Thanks! Fortunately, I think Ming the Merciless was still at his place in the Hamptons.
