Hadn't heard that Brian Briggs tune in a while.
BRIAN BRIGGS SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE LYRICS
Frankie was a modder, the King of Merton Park,
in his triple sole, brown suede floaters,
he could run fast in the dark.
Big Moe stepped on his toe
so to get Moe off his back,
he played hooky,
to play chicken,
down on the railroad tracks.
Goodbye Frankie
So long.
Goodbye Frankie,
I'll see you on the other side.
Frankie and Moe rode their scooters to the corner of Camley and Rue,
they waited at the end of the tunnel for the 309 to come through.
Frankie smiled and spit on the ground
the 309 was on time,
He knew Moe would never have the guts
to be the last one over the line.
Goodbye Frankie
Goodbye Frankie,
I'll see you on the other side.
Goodbye Frankie
(so long)
Goodbye Frankie,
I'll see you on the other side.
Frankie waited far too long
you could see in his face this was it,
Frankie knew he'd never beat that train
and he didn't give a shit.
(scooter sounds)
Goodbye Frankie
so long mate.
Goodbye Frankie,
I'll see you on the other side.
Goodbye Frankie
Goodbye Frankie,
I'll see you on the other side.
Goodbye Frankie
(so long)
Goodbye Frankie,
I'll see you on the other side.
Goodbye Frankie
Goodbye Frankie,
I'll see you on the other side.
Goodbye Frankie
(so long)
Goodbye Frankie,
I'll see you on the other side.

thanks rainy day; Robbie, Jim and HFS. It's a gorgeous day in Chicago where I walked listening to random. Mark's show came on; he was a bit obnoxious....

love the way the train whistle comes in on Brian Briggs song to knock down the curse word. Yes, it's in your new collection as well.

How friggin cool is that?
You rule Walking Dead Man!
I never even seen the album, and confess, never looked for it either!
Much appreciated...Thanks!
No problem - this is my own vinyl rip from a pristine LP I bought from someone in Spain via Ebay. A friend in college turned me on to BB when it came out and I had been searching ever since.
I am still perfecting my A to D conversion and if I ever come up with a better sounding version, I will let you know.
Thanks for all the great WHFS stuff!

madjono,
cool to hear your comments and your enjoying the commercials...It is interesting how things change over time. Doubt I'll ever get around to posting a compilation of commercials. Feel free to download all these radio tapes and make one your self tho...Thanks again for the feedback!
as a life long dc resident, youve
managed to blow my shorts off...
i once contributed to john page and chris thompson @ WGTB back in the day - and it sure as hell is sweet to stumble across this nugget
of pure psychedelly/bethesda shizz !
many many thanks !

Thanks for the comment Doc!
You will find tons more great stuff here...Enjoy!
Back in the day, I listened to Weasel in the D.C. area. Friday afternoons I loved hearing a couple songs that really revved up end-of-work week. One was called "Thank God It's Friday". But I can't find it on YouTube. Can you tell me the song title and artist? There were at least two songs played back-to-back at around 5:00 PM on Friday's.
mayewil7,
Someone posted the info in one of these 'HFS posts...dig around..you might find it...sorry if I'm a bit lazy today...
sorry to revive long-lost pursuits, but
is there an active link for this anywhere? Or can one be posted?
If so, yers truly would be
truly happy. . . .

Sorry, but I sadly compressed most of my old WHFS files to save disk space. Still sounds great.
