Star Time #113: Dangerous Lips
The Wheel Of Time breaks off the axle this week, sails across the street in a narrow arc, and lands in a ditch between the years 1956 and 1964. That means we have a lot of songs because records were shorter and radio station ad time was at premium. Highlights of this week's show include unemployment, soiled dishrags, driving lessons, barbecue, housepet annoyances, aggravating members of your extended family, and the wonderful Drink Small.
