Episode 88: The Week Ending March 24, 1973 I’m Just a Singer, and I’m Gonna Sing Danny’s Song
Description
Lately we get the feeling that the show may be rotting like a dead skunk, but neither one of us wants to be the first to say goodbye. That would leave one less set of footsteps, but as the saying goes, maybe you have to break up to make up. This week; do you want dance or maybe just sing along to Billboard Top 40 from the week of March 24, 1973? We promise not to stop until we get to the last song. This episode may bea space oddity, and also sprach zarathustra!
