Sonic Café, Bobby Womack, title track from the 1972 Soundtrack LP, which you also may remember from Quentin Tarantino’s 1997 film Jackie Brown, so welcome to episode 454, I’m Scott Clark inviting you to join us here at the Sonic Café for another helping of eclectic music, comedy and pop culture. This time the Sonic Café pulls our music mix from 52 years. We’ll spin blues Toronzo Cannon, 39 Clocks, The Psychedelic Furs, Monkey Junk, Fast Eddie Clark and many more, including a trip back to 1964 in the Sonic Café time machine, listen for Jr. Walker’s Shotgun. Also comedian John Mulaney is here to tell us a touching story about his dad. That plus a couple other comedy shorts from Scotty Goff and Kelsey Cook. And finally in the second half of the program, the Sonic Café brings you Old Words We Still Use Today, from our friends over at Curiosity Geek. Interesting stuff. So hey let’s get to it.

About the Producer:
Scott Clark has always had a lot of music in his life. Growing up outside of Chicago, he was mesmerized early on by the radio of the sixties and seventies and began collecting records at a very early age. From 45’s and LP’s to cassettes and CD’s and now digital… he really never stopped. Today everything in his library is digitized because he got sick of lugging all that stuff around.
The concept for the Sonic Café is to deliver the high production values and feel of the radio he grew up listening to. But unlike the tight, repetitious playlists of those commercial stations, feature a massive range of artists, genres and tunes. The whole idea is to package it in an eclectic, engaging, no repeat format that brings both new and old together in a unique, entertaining, and most importantly fun and fast paced way. There’s really nothing on the radio today, or in the past, that compares with it.
About the Sonic Café:
The show is set in an imaginary cafe overlooking the Pacific Ocean on the Central Oregon Coast. The cafe serves up eclectic, intelligent music, comedy and pop culture. The program originates on the Oregon coast in the Pacific Northwest, so the imagery is not a huge stretch.
Each program is 58:00 minutes in length leaving room for station ID, promos and PSAs. Each episode is .mp3 encoded at a constant rate of 256kbps and ready for broadcast.
An episode is released each week. All episodes are evergreen; never focusing on time of year, weather, month, holidays, events etc. so each show is timeless. All music is presented in a no repeat format. Once a song airs in an episode it never airs again. Episodes may be downloaded and grouped together to quickly create program blocks of two, three, four or more hours in length.
The Sonic Cafe has a Facebook page (facebook.com/SonicCafeRadio) where complete show notes and playlists are presented for each episode. Listeners can also reach the show producers via email (SonicCafeRadio@gmail.com)
