The Paleface Parabola - 05-11-2025 I’m staring at a blank screen. Panic, if not sheer terror, is rampant at the nexus of being concise and kooky all at the same time. I harken back now to the younger days when being taught to swim. My instructions were to hold my nose and jump in. Or get thrown in, as my late Uncle once did to me when I was taking too long on the boat. So... Splash... Here we go! The Mystery Man let it be known that he thought this week’s caper was number 200 in our four-year quest for alchemy, gold, and glory. Unwittingly, we brought in the heavies this week on the Paleface Parabola. Ken Nordine, Roy Brown, The Fletcher Henderson Orchestra, La Vent Du Nord, Ike and Tina Turner, and the Mystery Man’s Midnight Magic Act of the week are but a small sample size of the big tent o fun we have plotted. Just follow the oaf without borders road where to it leads. Listen
