Hi all,

Another old-time P-lister checking in here.

David Kipen recently asked about music to read Pynchon by.  I quarried 
this out of the P-list archives, from 1995, by Ted Samsel, regarding a 
song in _Vineland_:

For WACKY COCONUTS try:
  George Formby-a ukelele playing brit who may have made an appearance in
GR. Very popular in the USSR in WWII.
  Old pop hawaiian tunes from the 20's-40s (perhaps earlier) i.e.
I WANT TO GO BACK TO MY LITTLE GRASS SHACK (IN KEALAKALUA, HAWAII)
