Remembering Spike Jones and His City Slickers
NPR's "All Things Considered," December 29, 2009
Spike Jones and his City Slickers broke the mold of conventional music decades ago
with humor, drums, cowbells and even cannons. With his 1950s TV show now on DVD,
the late bandleader's wife, Helen Grayco, and son, Spike Jones Jr., talk about his
legacy of subverted songs.
