RIP Soupy Sales
Even though he'd been ill a long time, it's still a shock to hear that Soupy Sales is gone.
It's amazing to watch old clips on youtube, it makes me realize how modern and timeless Soupy's humor was...
My favorite video, of Soupy being "surprised" by an exotic dancer (out of view), seems to have been pulled. Here, Soupy and Pookie do Stevie Wonder:Comments

RIP Soupy Sales
Soupy Sales was totally insane in a very good way. Who else could have entertained both youth and adults with two shows on the same day? The late night showcasing of top jazz talents equalled his "intellegent counter cultural" appeal. He was truly ahead of his time or at least a pioneer for the cultural shift.
As I write this some otherworldly vibes are streaming while I view the linked Youtube video with Stevie Wonder's "High Heeled Sneakers" and simultaneously listen to an early airing of Ann Delisi's "Essential Music" which is playing Stevie Wonder's "Very Superstitious". (It's an otherworldly experience!) They are wrapping up their Semi-annual pledge drive today. True fans of variety in music can support WDET with a donation at anytime.
