(1:09:17) Believe it or not, Jimbo’s back (although, he does not appear) in yet another episode of The Best of The Frank Nora Time Machine. Jimbo does add a LOT of new music, including previously unreleased tracks from “Very Frank Words” and the Fuzzy Wuzzy musical project (with words written by Nora for Fuzzy Daupner but music and performance by Jimbo.)
However, the heartbeat of this episode (and all of the Nora/Jimbo Time Machine episodes) is the fleshing out of Nora’s better bits in his far-off/somewhat-forgotten episodes. Jimbo hopes to present a new episode now and again and also plans to write numerous pieces of music to go along with them.
IN THIS EPISODE: (from The Overnightscape #81 9/11/04) Barbara Bush’s looks haven’t changed .. ♬ LEARN A LESSON FROM BARBARA BUSH .. orange juice concentrate .. ♬ WHY DO THEY CONCENTRATE THE ORANGES? .. Bill Clinton’s heart surgery .. ♬ BILL CLINTON DIED TODAY .. reading ‘lost’ Fuzzy Daupner lyrics (“Laser Baffle Rag”, of which all the following songs are taken:) .. ♬ I HAD AN OPEN MIND .. ♬ WAS DANA PLATO A LOSER? .. ♬ IS ANYTHING EVER GONNA BE EASIER? (version 2) .. ♬ SURF GUITAR IS MINIMALISTIC (edit) .. ♬ IS ANYTHING EVER GONNA BE EASIER? (version 1, edit) .. ♬ CHARLES NELSON REILLY ON CAFFEINE (edit) .. ♬ KITTEN KITTEN ..
