The Terry and Alan Show, the moniker that our frequent freewheeling and mirthful on-air chats have come to be known by, centered this time around on three songs from Once Upon a Memory including “All Over Morocco,” a song written in 1979 that was brought up for inclusion on Klaatu’s Endangered Species record but ultimately given a thumbs-down from producer Chris Bond. The recording, which originally appeared on Terry’s Civil War album, features Dee Long on classical guitar and vocals, and John Woloschuk on bass and vocals.

It’s always a joy to talk to Terry; I look forward to his next appearance on the Terry and Alan Show…also known as Pure Pop Radio: In Conversation.

Sample the songs played during this show: “Myrlindale,” “All Over Morocco,” and “Once Upon a Memory” at Terry’s online digital store. Purchase Once Upon a Memory on a 4 GB memory stick with a 47-page booklet, five videos in high definition, and a collectible postcard here. Fancy a download? Go here.
