My problem with GK - he's was once an excellent, spellbinding storyteller, and a wonderful outlet for music. When I listen now, I turn it off as soon as he starts singing, beyond the theme song. It's just awful. But that's not my real problem. It's when he foists himself onto the guest bands, to sing along on their songs. Extremely rude, and what is a guest going to say? This type of music doesn't get much radio exposure. Grin n'bare it!
And the show is a mess. It's little more than a sound-effects show, with some singing. In the early 80's, he was like a god on the radio. Today, he sounds like an asthmatic guy lost in the mall.
I was in an old time band. Wherever we were in the van, at the appointed time, the tour van would get very quiet, except for laughter.
It may be 20 years since I've really listened to the show. Seriously, I can't anymore. It sullies the memory, and it's an awful show. I have no idea what it's like today.
