"Off the Charts"
a remarkable one hour pbs doc on "song poems" - a music recording scam that enticed thousands and wound up creating some wonderful and horrible pieces of americana (thanks nader) :: click below to watch ::
That was great, Ze. Never knew this song-poem industry existed. I don't think I'm ever going to hear a lyric that beats "Thank Jehova for Kung Fu Bicycles and Priscilla Presley". Pure gold.

Thanks for this.
There is a great "This American Life" on pbs radio on the same subject here. http://www.thisamericanlife.org/node/3096 (act three).
