Used to contribute to Doctor Demento back in the days of his syndicated Radio weirdness too.
Belonged to a group that advocated “Freedom of the Airwaves” before the internet was thought of. Looking for songs on youTube Red crom old playlists from group of music banned from US radio.
(Posted later, took song off cloud drive, got full of models.)

Pixies - Where is my mind? -
Good question. Good song. Going to youTube Red just busted my data cap. Worth it.
Let’s change up the beat here and with my favorite traveling songs. These next three at one time were banned from US radio. Back when the “internet” was was something you cast upon the water to catch fish.
Quite a few people with transmitters used to risk jail by filling the airwaves with such “dangerous” material.
I wouldn’t know who personally but in a place that touted it’s freedoms it got REAL IRONIC.Warning: Songs advocates things that gives the authorities in most countries ulcers, hives and blood pressure problems. (Which is why they became anthems for people like me who wanted to do just that to “authorities”.)
From 1971 here’s Little Feat singin’ Willin’.
Here’s a song that was in it’s day (1969) just as dangerous, but was more famous because it was on the soundtrack of the “dangerous” movie Easy Rider".
Sang by The Band and lead vocals by the later actor Levon Helm here’s the link to “The Weight”.Kick back and enjoy and strike a blow or two for freedom.
Lastly someone I know. Played gigs in New York when I was living in Rome NY. Used to travel the state on Friday nights to catch his gigs. This is one of his classic jam sessions. Johnathan Edwards singing Shanty
John got booted off the radio and back on the radio in 1970-71 for this song he wrote about Nixon. It’s back to being banned because it seems to apply more to the US’s current “regime”. Here’s his song “Sunshine”:
For those who like Freelancers FX, here’s a oldy but goody that got praise at our local and semi-famous “Big Muddy Film Festival”. (MTV wasn’t back then)
Poor quality copy but it was grabbed from big screen. Fair audio.
A trip nevertheless.
YES “Nights in White Satin” -
I have been playing quite some Sunless Sea the last few days! Great game, that brings much of what I also much enjoy(ed) in Freelancer, although it is in a (weird) nautical setting rather than space.
Great soundtrack as well!
