A 27 year KNBS mystery solved! And, I was wrong!
« on: December 22, 2025, 1904 UTC »
JG Tiger found a 27 year mystery. KNBS #31, the final one that was done April 8, 1998, opened with a tune called Yum Yum Tree. For 27 years, I'd thought that to be Frank Zappa, but no! Do a search in the Zappa discography, and nothing comes up. JG Tiger found the artist, an obscure artist called Tom Dark, or Turkey Tom, did Yum Yum Tree.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Xnm1KmNoIQ     It, came from Dr. Demento's Basement Collection, around 1992. So, the song was never officially released anywhere, really. So, how did Phil Muzik, get that? Someone must have sent it to him. By listening to it, can ya see why I'd thought it to be Zappa? Huh... One thing is for sure, it nails the current drug policies in America, right down to a "T". Wow.... So, does anyone else have INFO about this?   https://archive.org/details/knbss-phil-muzik-interview-8-2-1997

The best two statements of advice that I've ever gotten are from my brother-in-law in the early 1990's. 1st one, when I bought a used '89 Olds Cutless, my bro-in-law said, "Congratulations!!! You've just bought a deficit!". The other, was on a work environment, " No matter where you go, it's going to be f***'ed -up!". No truer words have been spoken.
