Ken Nordine has moved to another room

Post by DrMabuse »

Ken Nordine died over the weekend. Very sad, but when you're 98 it happens sometimes. A bit of Word Jazz to remember him by. If you don't know who he was, and you like experimental sounds, you're in for a treat. Going to pour some verse out on the pavement for him so it settles on a manhole cover...

Rest well Ken.

at one time Ken Nordine had a lot of work in TV and radio adverts. back in the 70s his Levis spots were ubiquitous.
