    Thanks BC

    I'll investigate further.
    There's always another branch on the tree here.

    Ken Nordine

    Recites his Flibberty Jib and The Island during Drums.
    I remember this from a GD Hour when it was fresh.
    David Gans had portions of lots of fresh shows back then.
    Love Ken's word jazz and Devout Catalyst.
    Fabulous voice over guy too. I remember some Coors commercials BITD.
    RIP Ken, he died in 2019 at the age of 98 I read.
    Cheers

    Ken Nordine

    Loved listening to Word Jazz back in the day on WBEZ in Chicago. I was in the NW by the time Ken did his Flibberty Jib at the Rosemont but he took part in the public radio fund raising sketch "Oregon Trail Mix" played before Set II(?) at the Eugene 8/21/93 show. At the time listening to that over the house PA definitely added to my buzz. Search "Oregon Trail Mix" Autzen 1993 and gd vault word press has the audio at the start, though its not in the track listing. also on source 8 of 9 for show at relisten. Not only was that a fun fun show it has the GOAT Standing on the Moon.
