Taking a break! Recharging after the excitement of episode 200, and also I'm just getting back from this year's FIMAV in Victoriaville, QC... so what better time to thrill you with the very first episode of Surgery! For reasons I only vaguely remember, the episodes that were posted on the original Blogspot site start with number 22... but unless my timing's wrong, the first episode was posted in early 2004. The graphic is new to this revisit... but I've included the stick figure surgery mascot that graced the first year of episodes. At this point I was only listing the albums and not the track listings, so I apologize for the lack of additional info, but please enjoy this Surgery Prime!

For the 200th episode I'd initially planned on soliciting a number of artists to each contribute a new or unreleased track. While almost everyone I reached out to was cordial and kind, it quickly became clear that it was going to take a higher degree of hustle than I'd first anticipated. Some had project deadlines, some were in the process of developing new projects, all were very busy. But... just as I was starting to rethink the show idea... the amazing Peter Broderick got back to me. And rather than gift me an unused track, Peter went the extra few hundred miles and actually wrote and recorded a new track especially for the show. That track, 200 Surgeries (his title, btw), closes out this showcase of his work spanning a dozen years or so.
Thank you Peter! And thank you listeners for your continued attention for the past 200 episodes and 20 years of the show in all its incarnations.
