ketamine, with a side of drowning, coronary artery disease and an opioid.

[Hutch]

I was given ketamine during a hospital stay almost ten years ago now...it’s one hell of a drug….I was given it for pain after a car t-boned into me and broke a lot of my bones….anyways at one point I did begin to hallucinate and at another point became convinced they were trying to kill me….scary stuff

I hear it’s a popular drug for club goers… blows my mind.

Amp Fiddler Detroit based  funk keyboard maestro

What a legacy Joseph Amp Fiddler has, played with George Clinton for numerous year, recorded with Prince, Moodymann, Sly and Robbie, Maxwell, Jamiroquai, etc  Is credit with mentoring Dilla and introducing him to Q-Tip.

I'm most familiar with his most recent work especially this record with Detroit based Will Sessions.

when I first saw the photos I thought Michael McKean had passed, sucks for Jimm and his family, but glad we still have McKean

I love that pic of of him holding a bag while rolling a joint and Tom Petty sitting next to him. Bet he had some great stories.

I don’t know that it’s fair to say there are no freeform DJs….just not on the traditional big FM stations but there are left of the dial, right?

Even 1985-1987 living in California it felt like rock stations were pretty formulaic…I mean even the big ones like KOME or KFOG and this was in San Francisco
