I recorded this on cassette tape when it was originally broadcast on KCRW.. On the flip side of the cassette was another Joe Frank gem, “Coma.” I was working at LA Cellular in Cerritos at the time and the two thirty minute stories fit nicely into my one hour commute. I loved “Tomorrow” so much I must have played it my car at least once a week.
The usual elements are there: the background drone, the deep voice narration of Joe, the story which weaves so exquisitely in your brain.
This story is totally LA with lots of references to the city.
You’ll enjoy this one.

Tomorrow is just another fantastic Joe Frank production. I got hooked on Joe in the late 90s and have been a fan since. How that man came up with the scenarios in his meandering discussions is beyond me but they are nothing but great. You won’t be disappointed.
