Jim Rome
“TOkome lb The Jungle”
Outpost Recordings
Grade: A
The “Jungle” is blowing up - and
now you can get a piece of it for your
very own.
Jim Rome, the occasionally contro
versial host of the sportsradio program,
“The Jim Rome Show,” AKA “the
Jungle,” has not been giving himself
enougn creuu lately.
The show, which
began with a single
radio station in San
Diego, is now syndi
cated to more than
100 affiliates nation
wide, including
Lincoln’s own 1480
KLMS, where it’s
aired weekdays from
11 am to3p.m.
A lot of people i
listen to the show on f.
a daily basis. These j
people have received
die insulting title of
“clones” by none
other than Rome
himself. Sometimes these clones
choose to not have jobs so they can lis
ten to the show for all four hours each
weekday. They also are known to
schedule their sleeping patterns
around the show, bring “Jungle” signs
to World Wrestling Federation events
and wait on hold for up to 200 minutes
to talk to Rome. However, their calls
frequently end when they get run from
the phone line for having a bad take, or
opinioa
Clones will be happy to hear that the
other 20 hours of the day won’t have to
be spent in complete boredom. They
now can run to the nearest record store
and purchase “Welcome To The
Jungle,” a record that will keep the old
fans happy while introducing new lis
teners to ideas typical of the show.
The album features a solid mix of
host and listener takes along with music
featured in the program, including its
theme song, Guns 1ST Roses’ “Welcome
to the Jungle.” Other memorable tracks
include Kurtis Blow’s “The Breaks”
and Crystal Method’s “Busy Child.”
The hilarious radio takes are what
really make this album unique, though.
“Jungle” favorites including
NA5UAK,
“Spelling Bee”
and “Karma” all
make their due
appearances
along with some
fresh laughs and
new twists.
Of course,
Rome puts in
plenty of the
funnier clone
quotes to round
out the album.
The funny lines
included are
some of die best
listens here,
especially the
grand finale, a 17-minute “What is
Smack?”
Since the “Jungle” is such a popular
program, it is hard to include everything
on the album. However, the lack of the
“Slumpbuster” take by Chicago Cub
first baseman Mark Grace brings the
album grade down a bit
Apparently, Rome has promised
three tour stops before the end of the
year, with Omaha being considered as a
front runner. The “King of Smack” did
promise a trip if the Husker football
team won the championship last season.
With that in mind, he should be on his
way real soon.
Allegedly.
