I watched that show when it was first broadcast...
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

It would have been nice to have been in the moment on that one.

That's a cute clip. It strikes how squeaky-clean and refined (albeit well-made) the Duke's music already was at that point, the animal had been taken out of it. Probably one of the reasons why it conquered whitebread ears too.
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

This street duet used to be a highlight of my lunch hour downtown Chicago.  Sad story - they moved to San Francisco, and apparently he had a heroin problem and ended up murdering her.
