Be sure to listen to Dr. Zarkov's Tiki Lounge next Wednesday, 5-6 P.M. Eastern Time, on Fairfax Public Access/WEBR Radio, which can be heard on the Internet at: http://www.fcac.org/webr/live.htm

The theme this week was spring, which also was the theme for the previous two weeks, which were almost entirely dedicated to jazz. Next week we will get back to exotica and exotica-tinged music.

I second that! Zarkov's choices are consistently good ! Lot's of real Jazz, which I love! Also check out Koop Kooper and Digitiki's stuff, when you get a chance. These men know music!

Awww, gee!!! This place is like celebrating Christmas every day of the week!!! It is nice to pause from making/performing music to occasionally dig another person's playlist. So, I guess I will just have to check out Koop and , too. I might eventually take a pause from being self-indulgent to actually share a little from my collection of audio treasures, too.

Thanks so much for all your kind words. I hope you enjoy the May 12 show. I will be getting back to more exotica after three weeks of Spring-themed jazz but I think the next show will be one of my best.
