COTM - #87 - An Ode to MoonofFruit
Greetings my friends.
Some of you may remember a young man that frequented the Aural Moon Shout Box for several years. He was a very endearing chap and has touched all of us that have gotten to know him. We only recently found that Moono had succumbed to his battle with cancer. We will certainly miss his great spirit and his love for progressive rock. Back at the start of Corner of the Mooniverse, the listeners sent in a playlist that included a full album and than single tracks. Moono had submitted a playlist that I was not able to every play. So today, it's all for him. The playlist includes the album 90125 by Yes, Signals by Rush and several of the great prog classic tunes. So join us in a remembrance of our friend Justin Purcell. Dale

Actually, 90125 gets an unfair shake from "prog snobs" IMO. "Owner of a Lonely Heart" is by far the worst tune on the album. It's really a great disc.
And Signals is very, very, very good as well. "The Analog Kid" is one of my five favorite Rush songs ever, if not my favorite. Here's to you, Moono.

Great show Dale. I missed the end after David Gilmour because the nurses arrived. Moono is proud, I'm sure. RIP
