Welcome to BrainFood and Beverage, Home of Charlie’s Place

This is the place you arrive if you are a fan of Charles Walker’s radio shows or his books. This will also be the arrival gate to what I hope will be a cool place to visit and meet new-to-you stuff like Books and Music and Art and Craft and more, sort of the “BrainFood” part, while the “Beverage” part has yet to be defined, it just balanced the original phrase, which came from my days in that line of work.
I am Robert, son of Charlie, and doing what I can to share his legacy, which was a profound curiosity about a lot of things, and a real interest in music.
If you listen to CHARLIE’S PLACE, streaming on KXCR.net or if you are a fan of THE BEST OF SWING, also from KXCR Florence Oregon, then you have already met Dad ‘the DJ’, and his incredible collection of records covering the middle years of the last century, generally the 30s through the 50s at the core. What you may or may not know is his work as a Writer, and I will have more on that later.
I am still developing this site, but eventually you will be able to listen to his music here, and my hope is to make available a few of the books he wrote over the years, as well.
My dream is to share here not only Dad’s works, but also links and connections to other friends and family who are also Creatives, whether Actors or Writers or Painters or Musicians or Crafters or… well, like I said, Creatives.
Welcome, so glad you will be traveling with us.
Stay Tuned!
