By Klyde Kadiddlehumper. WARNING! This column is certainly not Prog-related. It is completely, 100% rock and roll. Kinda. And, perhaps, a small lesson about the past. I’ve mentioned how long before printing these columns are written. In this case, just a shade over two weeks. What many of us thought would never happen did last evening. […]
By Klyde Kadiddlehumper. Ladies and gentlemen (and I use those phrases loosely given the nature of most folks I meet reading these fine words), I fear this edition of Klyde’s musings brings bad news. Horrible news. News one cannot ignore nor fix. News we all suspected, but that no one would readily admit. Ready … Humpty […]

This month, for reasons that, to be honest, are not really essential to the vibe, I bring a little of almost everything. Let’s start with the celebratory bits first – no need to be a downer from […]
Prog Digest – An Xperience Column – by Klyde Kadiddlehumper. “I’ll be out of here by 3:00 tomorrow.” Or something to that effect. Those are the words of Aldo Vanucci – The Fox.

Stephen Freidland, aka Brute Force, is, at 80, still a force of nature. Signed to Apple Records by George Harrison, a member of The Tokens, mate on a schooner in the early 60’s, this actor/musician/comedian is on a mission. We sat down, had a chat and it is certainly an adventure. RRX: I’m speaking with […]

RRX: We’re speaking with Steve Marshall, actor, writer, director and comedian. I know you’ve got a 917 area code. I’m always interested in where you grew up, whether it was your childhood, or your schoolmates, or your first foray out after having graduated high school, what’s the thing that drove you to end up where […]
Having taken up the mantel of honoring and presenting his father Frank’s music, Dweezil Zappa has turned a legacy into a quest. This year, he is doing Hot Rats Live and more from 1969, the year he was born. Honest, gracious and more hard working than working than we can imagine, he took time out […]
