Listening via the Northern Utah SDR, which is receiving an S7 signal with very solid, good audio; the station's coming in directly here near Seattle with poor to fair audio through the noise here ...

0346 UTC: Accented male-voiced narrator talking about Robert Crumb and his music covers.
0349 UTC: "Crying My Blues Away" by R. Crumb & His Cheap Suit Serenaders.
0353 UTC: The narrator talked more about R. Crumb and his work.
0359 UTC: The narrator talked about the growing influence of jukeboxes in the 1930s, followed by "Pedal Your Blues Away" by R. Crumb & His Cheap Suit Serenaders.
0402 UTC: The narrator returned and talked about Crumb's influences, from early rock 'n' roll to other music.
0412 UTC: "Make My Cot Where the Cot-Cot-Cotton Grows" by R. Crumb & His Cheap Suit Serenaders.
0416 UTC: The station host, not the accented narrator, then introduced the next song, "Les mysteres de la chambre blue" by Les Primitifs du Futur.

Thanks for the interesting program tonight, Subterranean Radio!
