Star Time #269: Piece of the Rock


I don't do this show for chart success -- I do it for vanity and fun-sized candy -- but you might be interested in knowing this episode is, to my knowledge, the first to enjoy a top-100 position on one of Mixcloud's curiously-calibrated "charts." Specifically, I was alerted that Episode #269 reached #85 on Mixcloud's "global 1970s chart." Peculiar, since the show is half '70s and half '80s material, but no less welcome. Anyway, if chart placement is your barometer for success, then this is, I suppose, the most successful Star Time episode in show history. Kinda amazing, since there's not a single song about kung fu on the playlist.
