Absent Of All Thought And Of All Reason: Transmission 168, 2014 November 30

I present for your enjoyment a bonus / impromptu / fill-in program thrown together on short notice and of course every bit as good as the regularly-scheduled Tuesday night show. Thanksgiving was eventful, as Junior's short-lived but dire sickness kept us out of town a day longer than we'd planned, scuttling things that might have happened on the radio a couple of days prior to this. Nevertheless it is always good to "recover" from a Hall of Legends program and it is always good to hear Peel Sessions.

The earlier edition of this Chameleons disc was unreasonably hard to acquire. I paid somewhat dearly for my copy right before a critical peripateia in my life and will always associate these tunes with that time. Playing them here is part of my recovery process, and everyone's invited!
