Quote:Mmm. Yes. I was introduced to the Doctor in 1982, and I still have some of his earliest compilation albums on vinyl. Stuff like "Frosty the Dope Man" and "Making Love in a Subaru" by folks like Damaskas, who you never hear about any more.
Ah, memories of my teen years, sitting next to the Radio and listenting to the good Doctor share his extensive library of the wierd, the unusual, and the down right Sidesplitting.
(Oh, side note -- I just got the Sony EZAudio transfer kit in the mail yesterday. With that little toy I'm gonna be moving all those vinyl rarities to CD eventually... The 8 or 10 vinyl Demento albums I have -- and the 15 or so tapes I made from broadcasts -- are going to be among the first so transferred.)
Sadly, I haven't been able to listen to any Demento here in NJ since around 1990 -- he's simply not broadcast anywhere that I can pick up. I know about the archive sites on the Net, but I haven't actually found one with a reliable connection and a decent selection.
