Nixon Tapes

September is National Pain Awareness month so let me twist your arm to convince you to tune in to The Nixon Tapes on Roots Music & Beyond this Saturday, September 2 from 7 to 9 a.m. PST on KPFK radio 90.7 FM & also streaming worldwide @  kpfk.org. If you miss the broadcast, it will hurt me more than it does you because one can listen to the program for two weeks after the air date at kpfk.org in Audio Archives. - T.N.

In some European countries April Fool’s Day is known as “The Fish of April.” I am going to be up to my gills in fishy songs on The Nixon Tapes/Roots Music & Beyond this Saturday April 1st from 7-9 a.m. on kpfk 90.7 fm & trout streaming worldwide @ kpfk.org. These siren songs will lure you to flop like a fish on the dance floor whilst I try to hook you w/ my ear worms into donating a couple of fins or more to keep us afloat. Even though it is not an "official" fund drive, go ahead & click on that DONATE button now @ kpfk.org and I will do my best to keep the music swimming.
