Episode 165
Not all fusion is hyper - some can be pretty chill. Take Peter Erskine's "Dr. Um" band - or Phillip Upchurch's gang of studio cats. This episode looks back at two slices of fusion from the seventies than fast-forwards to now, asking if the genre has to keep its feet planted firmly in the seventies or not. Be careful - if you listen past the tag, Paul Lynde and Kiss will be discussed, like it or not.
