Star Time #265: Untouchable
With Star Time's expansion into the 1990s complete, we now turn back to the reason you chose this taqueria in the first place: The Distant Past. This week's show features R&B from 1960-65 and ties the Star Time record for most songs played in a single show: 40. There's lots to sift through here: chickens, monkeys, rats, sailors, projectiles, self-defeat, and hospitalization.
