Okay, this makes two weeks in a row that I’m bringing you a piece of purely digital art. I’m still not having an MG flare-up, but real-world intrusions, some fun (going to Columbus for Record Store Day and attending a cool talk about indie rock photography with Sham Voodoo) and some not (finishing up taxes) still kept me from spending any time making physical art last week, so this week I did a rough digital abstract design on the laptop while we were in Columbus, then emailed it to myself so I could finish it Sunday evening.

It’s called “Storm,” and it could mean a physical storm, an emotional storm, a giant karmic conflict of energies…I don’t know which. I’m only the artist. It was crafted with my antique PaintShop Pro program, which is the only graphics program I bothered to install on the laptop.

Over in radioland, Monday beginning at 2 PM on The AIR, we bring you a classic episode of Psychedelic Shack, and then at 3 PM an also classic edition of Herman Linte’s weekly showcase of the Progressive Rock of the past half-century, Prognosis.  You can listen to The AIR at the website, or on the embedded radio player elsewhere on this page.

Psychedelic Shack can be heard every Monday at 2 PM, with replays Tuesday at 9 AM, Wednesday at 10 PM, Friday at 1 PM,  and Saturday at 9 AM. You can hear Prognosis on The AIR Monday at 3 PM, with replays Tuesday at 7 AM, Wednesday at 8 PM, Thursday at Noon, and Saturday at 10 AM.

At 8 PM you can hear the madcap music of Spike Jones on a recent episode of The Comedy Vault.

Tonight at 9 PM for the Monday Marathon we bring you ten hours of Mel Larch’s showcase for showtunes, Curtain Call, with an emphasis on her shows devoted to Stephen Sondheim.

I have another radio note for you. Tomorrow I will not be delivering a new episode of Radio Free Charleston. There’s still too much real-life stuff to do. We should be back to normal in time for next week’s show, but Tuesday you can tune in to hear the first three-hour RFC, from January, 2020. That fact that we’ve done 220 of these since then still sort of blows my mind.
