Man! I haven't heard this since 1975! We used to party in the woods near Tallahassee,FL and one night tuned in this cool station KAAY Little Rock on AM. In between the songs on Beaker Street this music would play. It fit right in with the "high times" going on back then. Beaker Street played what was call "underground FM" and played groups and songs that you never heard on FM or AM at the time. That was the neatest program and I miss it a lot. This music got me started on space music!
Quote from the Beakerstreet website, Clyde Cliffort: "You've got to remember that I was in the control room of a 50,000 watt AM transmitter, actually broadcasting right from there. And I was literally about 10 feet away from one very powerful piece of electronic gear that was about 50 feet long and had several hundred cubic feet of air going through it per second. Well, that makes lots of noise. So we needed something to mask that out." As a teen, I taped a sewer to duplicate the drip sound.

This blows me away just like 41 years ago. Clyde Clifford and Beaker Street really were "a one and only." Hope it can be back on again soon.

@mddg1515 Beaker Street is streamed over the web every Sunday night.
But if they don't come to a solution by Feb 4, it is in danger of getting canceled.
I urge those who remember and enjoy(ed) the program to go to
beakerstreet-dot-com
for information on how to try to save this little slice of radio and music history.
