Driftwood Charlie’s Contribution To The World
In 1947 the doctors said that Charles Kasling had only a short time to live unless he moved to a hot, dry climate. First he moved to the Death Valley area, and in 1960 he left for Yuma, Arizona, where Driftwood Charley’s World of Lost Art was created.”
Social Security records indicate Charles Kasling was born July 10, 1901 and passed away in March of 1985, a testament to desert living.
Unfortunately most of his artwork has been destroyed by vandalism and the elements.

Saturday Matinee – Gene Chandler, Earth Angels & Samantha Fish with John Long
Gene Chandler was still doing retro doo-wop in the early ’60s. Then there’s these guys whose cover was kinda embarrassing, but good at the same time.
Yeah, that stuff is stuff, but this stuff is better.
Sam Fish cranks it, and that hoser on her right [Jonathan Long] could barely keep up. Love it.
Have a great weekend, folks. See you back here tomorrow for more fun.
