Sun/Moon

Mal Thursday sets the controls for the heart of the Sun -- with a side trip to the Moon -- on this week's episode of The Mal Thursday Show. While many of the Sun songs were heard on the "Summer, Babe" series ten or so years ago, they have been sonically upgraded for maximum impact. Presented in Ultrasonic Stereophonic and Living Monophonic Sound. Originally broadcast 25 June 2026.
