Let’s try this again, following the technical difficulties that caused last night’s Thrifty posting to fade into the cloud…

Greetings, seekers of the weird, the rare, the unusual, and the literally near-worthless! I come to you again in Saturday Night Shut-In form, bringing a wide variety of tunes culled from the thrift stores, yard sales, and garbage cans of our proud nation’s capitol.

Sounds of the Hall in roughly 33 1/3 minutes!

On tonight’s episode of Saturday Night Shut-In Mr. Moderator restores The Velvet Underground’s “Rock ‘n Roll” to its original studio majesty. Studio magic! The hell with how Lou Reed thinks he intended the song to sound. You snooze, you lose, Lou.

Later in the show your host sends warm wishes to some fellow Townspeople and makes a case for a trio of blues legends committing an actual crime.

Sounds of the Hall in roughly 33 1/3 minutes!

On tonight’s episode of Saturday Night Shut-In Mr. Moderator tells a story about his father, confronts his profound sense of vanity in the face of turning another year older, and takes yet another cheap shot at Almost Famous, or more precisely folks too high-minded to join him for a screening of Rock of Ages while holding onto the belief that Almost Famous is a “good” movie.

This week’s special guest edition of Saturday Night Shut-In comes to you from Hrrundivbakshi!

Hey, guys and gals — I come before you once again (a bit tardy — sorry about that) with a fine assortment of scratchy vinyl, culled from the dustbins, thrift stores and flea markets of our nation’s capitol. Well, almost. The music you’ll hear in this episode was actually found in West Virginia — but it’s all good, and it’s all here. Free of charge, as always — the pops and clicks cost no extra. Enjoy!
