The Paleface Parabola - 12-11-2025 An hour and 47 minutes this week! I think we left the Parabola in the dryer too long and it shrunk! But seriously... We had a news induced fit but the news had a tantrum and stormed off to sea. We also had a Noah’s Ark of silly bits and naughty bits on board but they walked the plank. The payoff in the afternoon of foiled plans is music. Music that we rate higher than any Eric Clapton solo album since the mid 70s, I submit to you boldly and without a moment’s notice of worry. New music – that of Rory Block, Jimi Tenor, and David Byrne. High gloss vintage sounds – from Lord Buckley, Dan Hicks, and Wynonie Harris. The Mystery Man’s Magic from a man named Martino. No guarantees, just promises kept. 168 hours can’t come quick enough till next week when we rock and roll anew! Listen
