This week, we have yet another brush with greatness. And it doesn't get much greater than this.
We've been waiting for this news for a while, and now it can be told: Bill Mumy, the legendary American actor/singer-songwriter/voiceover artist/radio guy (sorry–I’m running out of slashes here) will be joining us on this week's Tuesday Night Diner.
As you most likely know, unless you’ve been somewhere else for the last several decades, Bill is a really well known television actor. He was “Will Robinson” on the classic sci-fi TV series Lost In Space. (You know, when people say “danger, Will Robinson”? Yes, THAT Will Robinson!) He was also in several episodes of the Twilight Zone, most notably in the “Cornfield Kid” episode. He was in Babylon Five. And the list goes on, but since I’m paying by the character, I’ve got to cut it short (I’m kidding!).
Your homework—before you listen to the show, is to Google Bill, or go to his website www.billmumy.com. You might not think you know him, but once you see his pictures, and his incredible list of credits, both screen and music, you will realize that you do know who I'm talking about.
Here on Recharged Radio, we’re especially interested in Bill’s music, and he just released a heck of a fine album called Glorious In Defeat. It’s a bluesy affair, written with a keen observer’s eye and performed and produced solely by Bill. We’ll learn what went into the crafting of these songs, and a little more about his musical past. We’ll even ask the hard-hitting question about what inspired him to write the novelty classic “Fish Heads”, during his Barnes and Barnes years!

And if that weren’t enough–we’re going to play enough great indie music to fill your musical plate. Brand new tracks from The Scratch, The Dash, and Missdavinalee that you simply cannot afford to miss. These songs will jump right out of your radio and into your brain—and this is no exaggeration. They're lodged in my frontal lobe right now!
If you'd like to make a request, just drop me a line at mike(at)rechargedradio.com. If you'd like to become an honorary California citizen, drop me a line at the same address. And if you'd like to hear all this great music—simply tune in to the Tuesday Night Diner, Tuesday night, 8:00-10:00 p.m. (GMT), 12:00-2:00 p.m. Pacific, only at Recharged Radio—www.rechargedradio.com.
