Kogar's Jungle Juice 023

 

With Kogar the Swinging Ape

Aircheck Of The Week

 

Roby Yonge, while on vacation from WABC, returns to WQAM (his Miami alma mater) for one night only. Throwing out the format, he takes over the overnight show and tells some great stories while playing his favorite hits. This was originally a scoped aircheck. I've restored the music so you can hear this exactly as it was in March, 1969.

That Thing You Do Watch Party

 

Join us on Saturday, March 18th for an online watch party of That Thing You Do!  Party starts at 8 PM EST sharp.  You have to add the Scener app to Chrome and rent the movie on Amazon Prime to watch.  

Lux and Ivy's Favorites Volume 7 (Remaster)

 

With Kogar the Swinging Ape

"As I build up to LAIF 18, here is the remaster/upgrade of Lux and Ivy’s Favorites Volume 7.  Nothing major,  just cleaned up the overall sound and got some better files. The “big” change was fixing the Stan Freberg track, John and Marsha. When I originally put this volume together, I ended up using the WRONG track! I used one of Freberg’s sequels to the original song. I know this will make one person happy anyway, unless he’s forgotten making a stink about it all those years ago! Now you can be annoyed by a completely different annoying track than the one that was on the original LAIF #7!

This cover was put together by Adam Fitch from my idea, and is taken from the Kay Martin and Her Bodyguards LP. I figured since one of her tracks is on the compilation, what better image to use?"
