Can't be beat.

Geraldine is live in the studio with some tickilin' ivories tracks....

tune in for the keys to the rock and roll world!

The G Man

Join me for the next Centripetal Sounds Thursday from 2 to 4 PM. I will be playing my most personal song list ever: songs that have changed my life. Gerry suggested the theme, and I am going to run with it. I will actually TAKE THE TIME to explain my choices, rather than blast through the song list to get in the miost songs possible, like I usually do! Expect the best from the last 40 years, as usual. I will have everything from Frank Sinatra to Blue Oyster Cult. Hah! I am the only government you will ever need on Planet Rock and Roll.....

The G Man

Today, Thursday, join The G Man and Gerry as we trip and spill through one awesome song after another, by artists like Clinic, The Beatles, She Swings She Sways, Dead Meadow, Modest Mouse, Garcia, Clapton, and others. A sample of lyrics for youse all:

"Doorknobs on the floor", " Come into your own", " She tells me she sees the Great Deceiver, everytime she looks away", "You have the world at your fingertips, no one can make it better than you", "He might kneel, but he never bends over", " No, you don't ever wanna get some place where you can't believe", "Walked away to another plan, gonna find another place, maybe one I can stand".

Check out some in studio, unreleased material from Paul Kantner and the Jefferson Starship.

Stick around for music from the following bands: Rain Parade, Spacemen 3, Psychedelic Furs, The Europeans, The Green Pajamas, A Certain Ratio, Bauhaus, Colin Newman, Personal Effects, The Weathermen, Visible Targets, Trotsky Icepick, That Petrol Emotion, Pigbag, Sly and Robbie, The Chocolate Watchband, Coldplay, and more...... of course....

Hear brand new music by Wooden Shjips and The Reverand, and some great recent music by The Boards of Canada, Kings of Leon, The Wood Brothers, Yo La Tengo, and Steely Dan.

A smattering of great older work by Eric Satie, The New Fast Automatic Daffodils, Rare Bird, Dimentia 13, Manfred Mann, and the Jefferson Airplane will round out our weekly survey of excellent rock and roll from the past 40 years.

Live in the studio today only- Johnny Dragon and Randy Walker, tune in at 2pm for details.

I will honor the passing away of an old and dear friend, also, Mr. Bob Lenc. Lets go live and celebrate life!
