Robyn celebrates his 56th birthday tomorrow, so I thought it appropriate to re-air the Soft Boys / Robyn special that I produced last fall for KBOO’s membership drive. I took the opportunity to re-tool the last half hour a bit so as to go out with a bang rather than a strum, AND so that I could fit in a track from Robyn’s brand new cd “Goodnight Oslo”.
Thanks to Yep Roc for the two promotional copies of the NEW album Goodnight Oslo. I gave away one over the air; the other is still up for grabs and is for you internet listeners. To win, simply post a Robyn Hitchcock-esque bit of text in the comments of this post, or over at ANODYNE’s twitter account.
I will judge the entries and contact the winner for mailing address details. You have until the end of Robyn’s birthday (March 3rd) to submit your entries. You may submit more than one entry if you like.

Brilliant show, Mr. Jones!
Who couldn't use hours of Soft Boys/Robyn H?
My favorite Robyn Hitchcock moment was his interview in Forced Exposure back around '87 or so where he said 'I'd rather people came up to me and said "How's your pet squirrel Binky?" and hand me a cucumber sandwich'.
It was really, really strange to see him in The Manchurian Candidate.
