Favoriting The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from February 11, 2024 Favoriting

DJ Peter's avatar View DJ Peter's profile Favoriting

Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

Hi. Today I watched at a friend's house: Oppenheimer & a DVD of extras & documentary on Oppie. And the most recent Indiana Jones. Was wandering the streets trying to decide if just go home or stop at grocery store for a few things. Decided to eat at vege Indian restaurant and listen to the Laughing Clock and wait for what happens next.

hey music is monotonous and predictable, but not the worst thing -by far- on the supermarket playlists...
as an influence to girls and young women, it could be MUCH worse (madonna) but if i had a daughter i'd hope her to grow out of it quickly, and leave high school one day - as Swifty apparently never did!
