Bang Zoom, to the Moon

Miami's own, Jackie Gleason persuaded Salvador Dali to paint this album cover.
Gleason was a comic force, believed in ufo's, nixon and miami. his music is strictly for the far left-ear cocktail lounge scene that Martin Denny perfected.

This moldy vinyl fetches 300+ on ebay. WWRKD (what would ralph Kramden do)


Denny a Tiki god of lounge music


Jackie on the ukalaili with Tiny Tim.

when rap was pure n sample



I am totally that 80's guy who wants to share with you this music video of two young turks Mc Miker & DJ Sven.
I saw and heard many originators of rap (graffiti) in and around NY where Charlie Ahearn filmed the movie Wildstyle a tale of anonymity and fame set at home in an urban wasteland. From GrandMasterFlash to FabFiveFreddie and Keith Haring those were the days of gestation for the american culture of rap and graffiti that today permeates all the worlds downtrodden, in need of a holiday. One nation under a groove, with lots of rhymes & rhythm for all'yall.
