KRLX mix #62 (1/28/2021)

In this episode, Where The Action Was gets far — really far — out with an homage to “space rock and cosmic funk.” 

Turns out, outer space has been on a lot of musicians’ minds. Pink Floyd and Yes give the subject the prog rock treatment, David Bowie glams it up, The Byrds offer country-rock stylings, Elton John pianofies plaintively, Radiohead supplies two alt-rock takes, and Tropicálians Os Mutantes and Jorge Ben Jor provide the Brazilian perspective. And that just scratches the planetary surface, so cue up this playlist and prepare to freak out in a moonage daydream. Oh yeah.
