You might have seen the famous photo of a U.S. helicopter incongruously perched atop the roof of a Saigon building, with people lined up on a sloping ladder, backlit by the sky, hoping to board. The image illustrates the final hours of the evacuation of U.S. citizens, South Vietnamese allies and others from what was then South Vietnam on the day its capital, Saigon, fell to the North Vietnamese army and its allies at the end of the Vietnam War.
When so many were scrambling to leave, a few Americans chose to stay. Claudia Krich, a retired teacher who lives in Davis, was among them. Her journal of the experience is the basis of her new book, Those Who Stayed / A Vietnam Diary. She went to Vietnam in 1973 to work in a medical relief program. On today’s Davisville she talks about why she stayed when Saigon surrendered, her experiences in Vietnam, and what she saw that day. She’ll talk about her experience at the Davis library at 6 p.m. April 30, exactly 50 years after the end of the war.

This week on the Electric Compost Heap, host Dug Deep features new music from Death Valley Girls and ALIEN Boy, plus, we'll remember Clement Anthony Bozewski AKA Clem Burke, Blondie's drummer for 50 years whom we lost recently at the age of 70. Dig in!

Here Comes The Space Cow is more than just a new LP — it’s the sound of four musicians overflowing with talent but also bound by something deeper. This group plays like they were born to find each other, blending jazz grooves with just the right dash of funk. It’s tight, soulful, and polished in the way only seasoned artists can pull off. Roger Kunkel (in photo) stopped by the studio to give us a taste, spinning a few tracks and gracing us with a couple of mesmerizing live performances on guitar. It was pure magic.
Roger Kunkel -- Guitar, vocals. Stoo Odom -- Stand up bass, vocals. Bart VanDer Zeuuw -- Drums. Max Hart -- Hammond organ, pedal steel guitar.
