The Connection was a public radio call-in program from WBUR that ran from 1994 to 2005.
In March 2001, Lydon was dismissed after negotiations for renewal of his contract broke down.
Gordon says that the circumstances surrounding his termination were not explained well, though it is believed that WBUR was presumably not able to continue carrying the show.
The Connection's theme song was the jazz tune "Cantaloupe Island" by Herbie Hancock, performed by Us3 in their rendition titled "Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)".
