June 28, 2022 Episode 300 . The Midnight Train 02.
Hi folks this is DJ Jim Lionheart bringing in the very finest and also the very weirdest in late 1940s, 1950s and early 1960s are these are the years of the beat generation, the start of avant-garde television and fashion and drinking too many espresso‘s would lay the way for movie makers such as Martin Scorsese, Jim Jarmusch and David Lynch to name but a few and also would create that weird offbeat style that we would like to see in things like Ren & Stimpy.
today’s episode I go into depth in the surrealist filmmaker of Maya Darren whilst also talking about several pop songs of the era.
today songs include;
Since I Don’t Have You by The Platters

But I was cool by Oscar Brown Jr.

Charmaine by Helmut Zacharias

Skeeter Davis and lost to a geisha girl

Dawn train by The Champs

Smoke gets in your eyes as sung bye The Platters

Sorry Wrong Rhumba.

The cat is high as sung by The Ink Spots and The Vidiot by Ken Nordine.
The videos and songs are in fair use and I hope you will go to iTunes or whatever story you prefer to use and download these songs.
if you’ve like today’s episode please show some love and support the show by reviewing us, liking us sharing us on social media and that sort of thing.
