Put the espresso on and grab your shades and beret -- this week we are going back to the beat era and the coolest cat of all, Lord Buckley. His unique style blending hipster word play, jazz inflected music, and cosmic retellings of classic stories would be groundbreaking today, much less in the 1940s and 50s. From recasting Jesus as a hipster ("The Nazz") to a surreal appearance with Groucho on "You Bet Your Life," Lord Buckley always left a smile and a playful sense of "just what exactly WAS that?"
