A Free Cigar Can't Fight The Funk

Pink Floyd with their iconic first album with Columbia Records featured their take on the record industry in general and all of the window dressing that goes along with it serves as the first part of today's Segue City Special with Doctor Funk and their own iconic take on the Tower of Power and funk makes the other half.

It's Monday and everybody is frantically ordering everything they can online since it must the be the end of the world coming or maybe it's just the holidays - we can't tell the difference anymore, can you?

The Mayor asked us to go back through time, back past even the Fifties and on into the Big Band era for today's Segue City Special so Dinah Shore with some help from Glenn Miller and his Orchestra leads this one off into Gladys Knight and the Pips in a segue that actually works on a variety of levels - some we all get and apparently one only the Mayor gets... he's been acting strange now for some time but the checks keep showing up and he even brings the doughnuts most mornings so who are we to say anything?...

Segue City will be a recurring short-form programming element of "The Big Kahuna" - one of GET's developmental Internet Radio formats created by Dain Schult. It will also be expanded as a part of that format and finally evolve into a full, long-form programming element on its own. It’s all a part of GET’s radio division – American Internet & Radio (“AIR”).

The feature will be available for integration into other AIR Classic Rock terrestrial stations in the future as well. It revives the art of mixing two songs together in a seamless pattern where it is tough to tell where the first song ended and the second one began. Sometimes the segues may also revolve around thematic ideas like matching or similar song titles. We'll try anything because no two Segue City Specials will ever be exactly the same...

At least that’s the idea… your mileage may vary, check with your dealer; so, you don’t forget order before midnight; operators standing by for your important call; Our talent is on loan from God. We just pray He'll let us finish another segue for tomorrow... if you liked today's segue, our Mayor is known as the Silver Haired Man of Rock n' Roll. At least that’s the idea… your mileage may vary, check with your dealer; so, you don’t forget order before midnight; operators standing by for your important call; offer void where prohibited by law and that normally means it's legal everywhere but in New Mexico... is that gun really loaded or not?

This feature is a three-time winner of the Thomas J. Duke Memorial Music Segue and BBQ Cook-Off Award.
