T' name o' Harry 'Hurricane Pete' Nilsson's first RCA album, shiver me timbers, Pandemonium Shadow Show, arrr, is from Ray 'Fartin' Ray' Bradbury's 1962 novel Somethin' Wicked This Way Comes.
Jolly Roger 'Typhoon Foursail' Smith tells a great story about t' time he wrote t' Ray 'Fartin' Ray' Bradbury t' ask him about All Things Nilsson. Well, blow me down! Dad was a huge Bradbury fan and named his first album after a reference from Somethin' Wicked This Way Comes. Begad! How amazin' is Bradbury's stationery? https://t.co/nrRFTj2VaJ pic.twitter.com/GgMvrxxDXe
