eduardo said...Harry Chapin aside-was that a Kevin Ayers track that crept in somewhere,unannounced?

Wreckless Eric said...I haven't had chance to put a tracklisting up. But yes, that was Kevin Ayres & The Whole World - the song is called Clarence In Wonderland.

David said...Wonderful mix of songs. Quite liked the second tune you played from your Dad's record collection as well.

sprattle said...Your description of Harry Chapin's records as "at once preposterous and magnificent" is spot on. I found several on the sidewalk a few months ago. He is absolutely earnest (he was a crusader against world hunger), but also thuddingly literal in his lyrics.

Did you know he wrote a sequel to TAXI that takes up the story of Harry and Sue ten years later? Harry is now a famous folk singer. The song is called, logically enough, SEQUEL.

Also William Shatner did a bizarre version on an American TV show in the 1970s that's floating around in cyberspace somewhere.

Harry Chapin is now... dead since 30 years.
He was a great singer and songwriter though.

Being loved by a German bloke you don't even know might scare you to death, but that's not what I want. I want you to continue as long as you are able and willing. It's such a pleasure listening to your show.

Love to Amy!

Cheers, Lightning Buck

Peter said...The last two shows - which I have just got round to listening to - ("So you finally got round to playing the B-Side...") are a great mix of tunes.
Any idea where you will be domiciled in the USA yet?
