Cosmo-Orgazmic Finale

No.149, aired December 14, 2011. This was the finale of the Orgazmo-Cosmic Ascension series, featuring the 1st edit of John Coltrane’s Ascension (the 2nd was played on June 1, 2011 to kick off the series).

The episode culminated with a playing of Ovid’s Metamorphoses (on audiobook) with the final few minutes of Ascension – an episode wherein Neptune raises his trident as the sea rises apocalyptic and armies of dolphins invade the woods – unplanned but strangely appropriate!
