	9:05am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning everyone! Hey Handy, DiL, KFHP!
	9:05am Corey: Morning Joe and listeners! My kid is hooked on the Yips Yips. He usually stops whatever he's doing and runs up to the radio radio.
	9:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sweet Gittar
	9:06am Victor Resen: boop boop boop beep beep bop bop
	9:07am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Handy how is the tar treating you? Any mods you'd like?
	9:07am TDK60: Morning Joe. Wes!
	9:07am Strandlund: You said it, Son of Pantz!
	9:08am Brendan: Good morning Joe and yippies. That first track had me flashing back to the mall walking by the Wurlitzer store. The salesman had it on Samba mode.
	9:08am Rick from SC: Mornin' Joe and all. Tequila anyone?
	9:08am Jon: Everybody... “TEQUILA!”
	9:09am pgalub: Morning Joe and everyone! I just broke out the tequila- all set!
	9:09am SledDawg: Benson seems to be channeling Bo Diddley a little... :-)
	9:09am David (in London): Handy, Phillippe, Marley, Pantz, Kevin, Rev Rabbit (have you had any sleep yet?), TDK et al. Greetings groovers.
	9:11am SledDawg: plus his B string is messed up... :-0
	9:11am Joe McG: @SledDawg: Totally Bo. Hey, everybody, welcome to the show this morning! Hope you're doing OK.
	9:11am Sigurður: Yeah man, let's groove.
	9:12am Handy Haversack: David, Phillippe, Marley, TDK60, everyone: cold morning greets. Rev Rab, we the giant toads appreciate all such gifts! Someone thought it looked a little greenish, but that could always be algae growth in the water. If you think it looks OK, I do too!
	👻 9:13am Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Phillippe. The sun is shining brightly, but it's not really warming things up quickly enough.
	👻 9:13am Threemoons: TGIM JOe McG, fellow YipYips....
	9:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: David (in London) a little ! Time for caffeine tho... SledDawg ha! Great tho. Handy your tar your call. I reckoned green frog...
	9:13am steveo: Good morning. Enjoying the set. I was staring out the window at the top of a building under construction against the blue blue blue sky for Up, Up and Away and that felt correct
	9:15am Joe McG: In my view, Dom should've claimed composer credit on this version of "Spinning Wheel." All but unrecognizable!
	9:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...like Revolution #9 stretching out from Rev. #1...
	9:17am Phillippe Bastille: same here, Ken. Handy, we saw some canvasbacks this weekend
	9:17am steveo: it's definitely spinning though
	👻 9:17am Ken From Hyde Park: The opening track reminded me of a 70s ad jingle for Northwest Orient Airlines. #wayback
	9:18am Phillippe Bastille: steveo you said on Wake that Staysh will be talking about the comments board tonight. Are we in trouble?
	9:18am βrian: It's not going to hit 10 degrees all week.
	9:19am Strandlund: Hell Yeah CARAVAN!!
	9:19am dale: thumbs carlisle does a ripping country version of caravan too.
	9:19am David (in London): Right, I'm off for a bit to enjoy a walk in the snow and feed the crows. Back soon! Joe, keep the best stash for a little bit later please...
	9:19am PaulRobeson1920: Yip yip yip! 1966?! Like it was yesterday!
	9:19am Handy Haversack: Nice, Phillippe. I kept the sparrows, mourning doves, and juncos in seed through this last snow. Hardly seems worth hanging the other feeders back up since we're just getting snow every other day for the next ten days, it looks like.
	9:19am Terr DE: hope theres a drum solo
	9:20am SledDawg: The Wizard of Waukeshau! And Mahwah!
	9:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: They offset each other so well.
	9:20am Guido from Cologne: Hello Joe and everyone!
	9:21am steveo: @Phillippe haha. i believe he said something about how this is a rare example of a successful online community (hope I got that right). i'm looking forward to listening.
	9:21am Mike in S. Jersey: Chester 'n Lester!
	9:21am Rich in Washington: That's hilarious! I was just thinking about this very cover of Caravan! I had recently ripped this LP from my father's collection so he could listen to it on his tablet.
	9:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's a valid topic! Always thot Mark should have Kenzo on...
	9:22am PaulRobeson1920: If WFMU was a sail ship, love would be the wind
	9:22am steveo: Handy, I've had enough snow, can't you make it stop?
	9:22am Lisboner Pasc: Good morning all! France tuning in, all 68 million. Dazzling sounds!
	👻 9:22am waters7: Thanks for starting Monday, Joe. Always appreciate it.
	9:23am SledDawg: This set is a real catalog of guitar tones...Thanks Joe!
	9:23am Eagle Rock Reverie: The shadow of your smile when you Argon
	9:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...love - weirdness - desperation & determination...
	9:24am PaulRobeson1920: Woooshhh wooshhhhh wooosh
	9:24am βrian: Salut, La France !
	9:24am Handy Haversack: steveo, I haven't paid the snow bill all winter, but they won't seem to cut off the service no matter what I do. We were going to go a little ways upstate next week but now think we might have to call it off. Our car is not one that handles snow very well. It's ... vastly disappointing ...
	9:24am Joe McG: Glad you guys are enjoying some Monday morning geetar.
	9:24am Phillippe Bastille: @Handy no doves yet this winter here. Lotsa different kinds of waterfowl, though, at least 10 different kinds Good to hear steveo. As someone who spends his time on the board talking about birds, good to hear he won't be clamping down on the non-music talk. Speaking of which, great set so far, Joe!
	9:25am βrian: We $prang for winter tires last year. The difference was dramatic.
	👻 9:25am tadpoles: Yes Joe....nice. More Wes please.
	9:26am Yes: morning
	👻 9:26am Ken From Hyde Park: I am comforted by the thought that the sailing ship has a mighty boiler below decks as a backup propulsion system.
	9:27am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't tell anybody - but I don't hate Guitars.
	9:27am steveo: @handy We've got a subaru rental scheduled to head out to past where Joe is from for a couple of days next week... i hope there's not too much snow to hike a little... @Phillippe, I'll be a little surprised if -Ken mentions birds tonight
	9:28am Joe McG: Wait a second, who let this piano player in here. :)
	9:28am steveo: this guitar sounds like a piano
	9:28am Handy Haversack: βrian, one sad thing is that this is the first winter of any even mild severity (it's a thing!) we have had in years. If we had been getting a bunch of snow last Jan. and Feb.? Hurray! But this year, when we actually want to try to go sit somewhere else sometimes, it's ... punishing. We're already at more snow than at least since 2016, if not 2010. steveo, we have a 2003 Corolla. It barely likes rain!
	9:29am steveo: lol jinx
	👻 9:29am Webhamster Henry: Good morning Guitar Yippers
	9:30am dougseidel: another week another beak
	9:31am steveo: that is a nice thing about not owning a car; you get to rent new ones. (but i know kate needs for work)
	9:32am βrian: How many inches total have you gotten? About 14 years ago, we got 101 inches. Not so crazy this year.
	9:33am βrian: @steveo: In our household we had beaters for years. If we wanted to travel to visit family, we always rented.
	9:34am Brendan: Digging this swingset
	9:35am steveo: interesting way to run it Betarian
	9:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 🎵🎵 😇 🎶🎵
	9:35am Handy Haversack: Maybe 30-40" in the city total, with some melting in between. A lot more out in Jersey.
	9:36am Phillippe Bastille: @steveo (wipes brow) My beater truck pretty much died back in November -- sucking antifreeze into the engine, but it has a quarter million miles on it so I can't complain. My bride has decided that we can get by on one car. Only problem is her car is relatively new and has such a small trunk that we have to buckle the costco-sized paper towels into the back seat. Not gonna fly in the spring when we need about 20 bags of mulch... Plus being in the 'burbs, we'll totally lose our "divide and conquer" approach to running errands on the weekend.
	9:36am Will: Well this is amazing
	9:36am steveo: Phillippe, maybe a trailer?
	9:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...people always say - oh - you don't drive? You're lucky... Yeah? I don't see ya walking with me bee-otch..
	9:37am Cal Zone!: Love the opening set!
	9:38am steveo: just buy mulch on amazon?
	9:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's almost as if TheBeatles weren't bad...
	9:40am steveo: bad meaning bad or bad meaning good? (and with that i'll back off and listen)
	9:42am Dave: Great Set. Just got introduced to Buddy Fite today. Thank you!
	9:42am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...they were bad - but not evil...
	9:42am βrian: "Please bring goulash for all of my friends."
	9:42am Son Of Pantz: Joe dropping all the $5 words this morning! Stringent and Burnished. Them's some wizbangers.
	9:42am Phillippe Bastille: It's pretty low-slung, so I don't think a hitch would be much help, steveo. Delivery is a good option though.
	9:42am Alice: Joe! This is a perfect playlist for working this morning. Thank you :)
	9:43am PaulRobeson1920: Thats some baHd weed... 1966 writing nothing, nothing nothing
	9:44am p/b: GM Joe FMUpeople - trying to keep it together still way too far from bklyn, but coming home this weekend for a few, so light love and lets go with that jazzy ass guitar works for me at least for now - may need some drums soon...
	9:44am βrian: We bought a used folding trailer for $250. It paid for itself the first year. (That was the Year of Horse Poo.)
	9:46am Mike W: good morning fellow Surfactants
	9:47am steveo: great first set, I enjoyed all the tones i've had my eye on a particular bike trailer for years, but haven't pulled the trigger we just got a folding wagon for trips to the food co-op. seems better than the old granny cart, so far
	9:49am Steve from Dunwoody: The command from on high: If You Play It, Say It
	9:49am βrian: Wait, let me unbutton my shirt a few notches ...
	9:49am Handy Haversack: Formula is working, Joe! Also, cherry axe, Bart Dude. steveo, our granny cart busted a wheel coming back from the pet-food store a couple of months back, and if we have yet to replace it. Hard times.
	9:49am TDK60: Thanks Joe for mentioning the musicians, titles, etc. Some of us do appreciate this, being into music.
	9:50am Joe McG: @TDK60: Ha ha ha @Handy: I like the formula!
	9:50am βrian: Can you mod one of those all-terrain baby transports?
	9:50am Miss G: Ah! Woke up in the middle of the night so am able to hear this show -- when I heard Tom Jones as a beatnik poet the other day I almost fell off of my chair! Wondered what you thought Joe! L
	9:51am steveo: yeah, Handy, that's what happened to ours; sorta sucked pushing a 3-wheeled granny cart half a mile with 100 lbs of groceries
	9:51am Joe McG: @Miss G: Thanks for the head's up on this new album!
	9:51am Brendan: After hearing Buddy Fite , It would be cool to hear Buddy Love (from the original soundtrack). After all, he’s a lover not a fighter, but he’s also a fighter so don’t try anything funny. Nutty.
	9:52am Handy Haversack: I feel like I should be standing on Zanzibar or something.
	9:52am PaulRobeson1920: @Ken From Hyde Park- I imagine Anthracite coal mined in Wales and Pennsylvania powering that steamer! BABY I love walking the shore at Jones Beach State Park and finding old pieces coal that had been drifting on the waves for years. Sometimes they washed up at the beach after a big storm. Always groovy to find a shiny piece of anthracite in the sand
	9:52am Rachel Bo Bachel: Sounds so much like “I Might Be Wrong” by Radiohead!
	9:53am βrian: Yes, Rachel!
	9:53am steveo: i like this; not what i expected; good for Tom
	👻 9:53am Hughie Considine: This feels like a companion piece to Phil Lynott's "Talk in '79."
	9:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: [snaps Beat fingers] Tom !
	9:53am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Rachel Bo Bachel: I thought that guitar riff was familiar. Still, I really dig this!
	9:54am Miss G: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khgdwZmWkXc
	9:54am Malcolm: wtf tom jones slam poet
	9:54am Asheville Jon: Tom is getting a little shatner~esque in his delivery....
	9:54am Blacktooth: Tom Jones blowing my mind here
	9:54am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe & all! LOVE this new Tom Jones.
	9:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Great! Ironic for a great Singer...
	9:55am PaulRobeson1920: Wash* Hell yeah!
	9:55am steveo: speaking of reality stars, i started reading Homeland Elegies -- really good so far
	9:55am dano59: Wow, this is tge Todd Snider song! Great version
	9:55am Yes: :)
	9:55am Terr DE: Tom did some really good blues on Conan a long while back. Hes not just Vegas ready
	9:56am The Oscar: Mornin'! I was genuinely expecting this to be an acoustic cover of "Ice Ice Baby."
	👻 9:56am Hughie Considine: Meanwhile, the Boss is losing some long-time fans after that Jeep ad. Apparently Little Early Burly came by in his curly-wurly and tried to run him over.
	9:57am Joe McG: @Hughie: Wow, the Boss did a car ad?
	9:58am Niko, Copenhagen: Hello to Joe and listeners. From snowy Denmark!
	👻 9:58am waters7: Love this version of Under Pressure. Really difficult to do this. Also--Tom Jones! Still relevant. Boyo!
	👻 9:58am Hughie Considine: Well, it was more like a solemn benediction for all of us to meet in the middle (the literal middle) in the guise of a Jeep ad. It strains credulity.
	9:58am Rich in Washington: As a Washingtonian, I am legally obligated to point out that Willie was a radio DJ in Vancouver Washington in the 1950s anytime his name comes up.
	9:59am steveo: amazing cover
	9:59am Joe McG: Hey Niko, I love your town! Snowy here, too. Hey, Greg! @Rich: Didn't know that!
	👻 9:59am karlward: This is hypnotic
	9:59am Rich in Washington: there's a mural commemorating his brief stint on some derelict building on Main Street.
	10:00am Handy Haversack: It was horrific, Hughie. This is fantastic. And these 2020 songs don't feel at all dated, even with the hurly-burly pace of modern culture.
	10:02am Lisboner Pasc: That Tom Jones track, that blindsided me! Great stuff Joe!
	10:03am Jessie: Thanks for this Nancy Sinatra cover of Morrissey's "Let Me Kiss You" Made my Monday morning!
	10:03am Joe McG: @Pasc: Tom's new LP looks promising, mostly cover tunes, but interesting ones! Glad he's recording again after losing his wife.
	10:05am Rick A: WFMU's own Dennis Diken played drums on that Nancy Sinatra album though I don't know if he played on that song. The album features a musical cast of a thousand.
	10:05am Handy Haversack: Wow, this set is star-studded -- both the artists and the clicky variety. Fantastic, Joe!
	10:07am Joe McG: @Rick: Yes, that track was recorded in Hoboken mostly!
	👻 10:09am Hughie Considine: I've been unable to get my Surface Noise on lately, so it's great to be here. Really digging this set.
	10:11am Brendan: And now we dance
	10:11am Doug in JC: Reception report: the signal still leaks through the Holland tunnel emergency exits a little bit
	10:12am dano59: Nancy's last was in 2014, quite unexpected. I loved her epic cover of Holly Holy.
	10:13am steveo: hey waitaminute that's a new profile pic, handy. same artist? is that symbolism?
	10:14am Handy Haversack: @steveo: Rev Rab 11/63 retouched and centered it for me since it was a little off-center before. Now you really get a sense of a giant toad eating a dude.
	10:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love JCC's voice as well as writing...
	10:15am steveo: aha!
	👻 10:16am Hughie Considine: Aw, man, this song is a gas.
	10:16am The Oscar: I'd like to go to a steak place with Mark E. Smith.
	10:16am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I live about a mile from a place that used to be called The Cheese House. True story! swhplibrary.net...
	👻 10:21am Hughie Considine: The Cheeeese.... House. Totally works!
	10:21am βrian: "I'm going steady with Iron Ore Betty and she's going steady with me."
	10:23am Roberto: Most romantic ballad of all time? It's definitely up there.
	10:23am Joe McG: @Roberto: Right up there with Johnny Mathis.
	10:24am northguineahills: what's Kiwi Jr, New Caledonia? (if NZ is Australia's Canada, then what's their Jr partner?).
	10:25am northguineahills: Ne'er mind, New Caledonia is Francophone, Tokelau, maybe?
	10:26am fionnland: After the rugby performance this weekend, quite happy for old Caledonia to take up the Kiwi Jr. mantle
	👻 10:27am Ken From Hyde Park: "The Falklands, ngh" ... someone, probably.
	10:29am Hubig Pie: I like beer I like 2 beers even more
	10:29am Roberto: Ugh. F'in' Gordon.
	10:30am northguineahills: I'm actually getting my hair cut for the first time in months (( need to look presentable for interviews). Hubig Pie is full of good ideas...
	10:31am βrian: Just got my hair cut yesterday. In the kitchen, naturally.
	10:32am northguineahills: @fionnland: Scotland beat the All Blacks!!!
	10:32am Roberto: Hey, that's my pickup line!
	10:32am barney.grubbs: There’s a recent interview w/ John Cooper Clarke in the believer: https://believermag.com/an-interview-with-john-cooper-clarke/
	10:34am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I've got a Neighborhoods record....uh....The High Hard One?
	10:35am The Oscar: Aw, love this song! It's on Rhino's "DIY: Mass Ave" compilation, which is one of the secret best punk records ever released.
	10:35am fionnland: @northguineahills Well we beat England at Twickenham in a complete performance, so All Black-esque
	👻 10:36am Hughie Considine: That DIY series is pure gold.
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So yes - Bawstin...
	10:36am The Oscar: I remember getting the Mass Ave comp right before going to college and being PSYCHED about moving to Boston!
	10:37am Son Of Pantz: Never trust a Rubber Duck
	👻 10:37am Webhamster Henry: Hey Good Buddy!
	10:38am Son Of Pantz: Got Bears in the air. Better put the pedal to the metal, Good Buddy!
	10:38am holland oats: I'm into C.B.
	10:38am Dennis Diken: 'ello Joe and everyone!
	10:38am David (in London): Back in the room, and I've got my ears on, 10.4.
	10:38am Justin B.: Let them truckers roll 10-4
	10:38am The Oscar: Some good hambone on this Sherri Pond.
	10:38am northguineahills: @fionnland: I don't remember Scotland being in the upper echelons of rugby checks notes, since I was born....
	10:39am Strandlund: Keep on Truckin'
	10:39am JG: The Willie Nelson duet with Karen O was nice. Coincidentally I was in a donut shop yesterday and heard another Willie duet. It was Beer for my Horses Whisky for My Men done with Toby Kieth. It was a good version
	👻 10:39am Hughie Considine: I'm getting a strong "Potato's in the Paddy Wagon' vibe here.
	10:39am Justin B.: Did Sherri Pond make any Mannheim Steamroller sequels?
	10:40am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Front door or the back door...ha!
	10:40am The Oscar: That felt like one of Clay's traffic report skits.
	10:40am northguineahills: Sheet, I missed Karen O w/ Willie. (actually danced w/ her, was an old crush of mine, and I got so nervous I ran off).
	10:40am David (in London): Ah, hello Hughie. Long time, no see.
	👻 10:40am Webhamster Henry: Is there a "Talk like a CB Trucker" Day like "Talk like a Pirate Day"?
	10:40am northguineahills: I'm assuming that Sherri Pond is a response song...
	👻 10:40am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Yankee Doodle Dandy.
	10:41am David (in London): "OK, so, we're agreed then? We're going with the name Toast?"
	👻 10:41am Hughie Considine: Hey David! How's London today?
	10:41am Joe McG: @Brian: I wish I had a toilet paper holder that played "Yankee Doodle Dandy."
	👻 10:42am Brian in UK: fionnland, well played Scotland but walk before you run.
	10:42am βrian: Autonomous trucks won't use CBs, I'm guessing.
	10:42am northguineahills: @Henry: We'd all need nom de camionneurs....
	10:43am northguineahills: Dig this REM....
	👻 10:43am Threemoons: Love this REM
	10:43am Handy Haversack: Ahhhhhhhhhh. "So. Central Rain." Direct line to my heart. Joe, no need to apologize.
	10:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 1984 - gawd - sighs...
	10:43am northguineahills: @Threemoons: jinx!
	10:44am northguineahills: et Handy!
	👻 10:44am waters7: I think that I liked this REM song so much that everything that came afterwards was downhill--to me.
	10:44am Joe McG: @Handy: No worries. I love almost everything about this record.
	10:44am northguineahills: y Rev Rabbit....
	10:44am nardo: Might be fun to watch one of those many 70's CB radio movies sometime soon.
	10:44am Hubig Pie: David Letterman brought this song to me TV set
	10:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Whole handful of earliest albums really...
	10:44am Joe McG: @nardo: I watched "White Line Fever" over the weekend!
	👻 10:44am Webhamster Henry: @ngh I'm obviously Hamster Wheeler.
	10:45am Handy Haversack: Word, Joe. It's so great. R.E.M. were my first, third, and fifth concerts.
	10:45am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	10:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Did not see them. :(
	10:46am nardo: That's a good one Joe. There's one with Peter Fonda and Jerry Reed. Can't go wrong with those two together.
	10:46am steveo: are you saying the concerts were odd, HH?
	10:47am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I saw R.E.M. on the Murmur tour (openers: Lets Active) at the University of Maine. They were terrific.
	👻 10:47am Webhamster Henry: Oh man! One of my all time fave segues is Tammy to Slave To The Rhythm. (From WBAI's Peter Bochan)
	10:47am northguineahills: @Henry: The trucker who's rig that is stuck in the mud and running in place...
	10:47am Handy Haversack: Oddfellows Local, steveo. Rev Rab, I had the advantage of proximity. One of the few advantages of being "raised" in Atlanta.
	10:48am Joe McG: @nardo: Last year I rewatched Peter Fonda in "Dirty Mary Crazy Larry." Liked it (again)!
	10:48am David (in London): Snowy but pleasant thanks Hughie. And warmed by McGaskoSound©
	10:48am paddy in matawan: When John Goodman sings this in the woods in the movie The Wrong Guys....
	10:48am Woo: I missed the Neighborhoods? That song is 41 years old? No more questions.
	10:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...rewrite for Tamiflu or should I lay off comments before the Techtonic expose-ay...
	10:49am βrian: A friend's handle was Bionic Beaver. She used the Timex slogan to sign off.
	👻 10:49am Brian in UK: Saw a BBC Gram Parsons doc with Peter Buck singing the praises of Byrdsesque sounds and the shock of Sweetheart of the Rodeo. I bought it on release and it seemed fine, I was carrying not music genre baggage as I did not really know Country & Western as it was called then..
	10:50am Rich in Bay Ridge: Tirez Tirez! Holy crap, I saw them at the Ritz...1986? Opening for The Bears.
	10:50am Joe McG: @Brian: Wow, Bionic Beaver is a great CB name.
	10:51am Andres: Morning Joe and all! As a kid, with too much time on my hands watching too much television, I saw Entertainment Tonight interviewing Michael Stipe and REM promoting So. Central Rain. My intro to the band.
	10:51am Son Of Pantz: I heard it said that REM once toured with Camper Van Beethoven back in the day, and suddenly after that Peter Buck had mandolin on almost every song after.
	10:51am JG: @ Joe, Dirty Mary Crazy Larry was never on tv for like 20 years and now there is a cable channel that shows it every other day. I am ruining it for myself, but I love everything about that movie. Fonda delivering most of his lines followed by a psycotic giggle, the badassery of vic morrow, and susan george is so cute
	👻 10:52am tim from champaign (now washington): Howdy Joe and everybodee! I'm John Cale/Eno sounds of Tirez Tirez.
	10:53am Rick A: Regretfully, I first saw REM on the Life's Rich Pageantry tour which was good though I wish I had seen them on previous album tours. Michael Stipe really hammed it up on stage. Guadalcanal Diary opened for them.
	10:53am northguineahills: Unfortunately, by the time I was in HS, REM was huge, so, I could never afford to see them.
	10:53am David (in London): And Gram credited the first country rock album, probably rightly, to The Downliner Sect. You had to pretty ballsy to release an album of British country rock in 1965. The market was, ahem, limited...
	10:54am Joe McG: @JG: Agree 100%.
	10:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Limited enuff for Sweetheart of the Rodeo when it came out ! No?
	10:55am Hubig Pie: Saw REM on the Green tour. Michael Stipe sported a mullet
	10:55am David (in London): Woah, Stooges in the house!
	10:56am Louie Dejesus: Oh yeah.... Kill City rules
	10:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Visions of Johanna? Viscerals of Johanna...
	10:56am JR HTX: wow. never heard this version of Johanna, nice
	10:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I wanna play Gittar like TheStooges. Yerknow??
	10:57am Rich in Bay Ridge: By the time I started liking REM, it was tough to get a ticket. Never saw them but have seen Pete and Mike countless times with Scott McCaughey's various projects.
	👻 10:57am tim from champaign (now washington): Fuck yeah, Joe! I used to have this Stooges bootleg called Rubber Legs. The version of Johanna on that drew blood.
	10:57am PaulRobeson1920: Scattered, nice tune! waiting for you to, come along
	👻 10:57am Brian in UK: David is that so, there is a lot of HooHaa about the first country rock album/song/track.
	👻 10:57am YETI BOB: @RevRab: That's a lot easier than playing guitar like Pat Martino or Joe Pass!
	10:57am Baja Joe: Hidey ho Joe.
	10:58am jt: Iggy is God
	10:58am Handy Haversack: Vicious of Johanna? Absolutely fantastical and brilliant show today, Joe! Really brought more than my share of scherzo. Thanks, Joe! Dog and I are going to go see how icy the bridge is. If we make it back, hope to see some of youse all later on at the Next Joe's Place.
	👻 10:59am Brian in UK: What is this God you write of?
	10:59am turtles: Great tune!
	10:59am Baja Joe: Can't go wrong with Louis P.
	10:59am nardo: @Joe McG I'm adding that to my list of films to watch again soonish. Coincidentally, I watched Fonda in The Hired Hand within the last year. Had never seen that one and I really like it. Had been listening to a lot of Bruce Langhorne too.
	👻 11:00am tim from champaign (now washington): Imagine Louis Prima and Iggy doing a sow together. I'd expect Iggy would turn into Bugs Bunny doing flips all around the stage giving the musicians smackers.
	👻 11:00am tim from champaign (now washington): sow = show
	11:01am David (in London): Tim, yeah, that one on Rubber Legs is gear, isn't it? Brian, well, The Country Sect came out in 1965, so that's pretty early. I interviewed Don Crane some years ago, and Gram Parsons told him that he acknowledged the Sect as the first. Whether there are earlier examples in the musical fossil record, I don't know.
	11:01am Joe McG: @nardo: Beautiful film, beautiful soundtrack.
	11:02am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I love the use of Prima's stuff in Big Night (re-watched recently)
	11:03am JG: @ nardo, great movie. Great music. My theory regarding Peter Fonda is that he actually directed Easy Rider because Hopper was stoned all the time. Hopper took the credit though and thats why Hpper and Fonda were not friends later in life. I believe this because Fonda continued to direct good movies and Hopper while an awsome actor, never directed another good movie
	11:05am nardo: Nick Apollo Forte died in 2020. He played Lou Canova in Woody Allen's Broadway Danny Rose. Hands down one of my favorite Woody films. Lou Canova is a lounge singer in the film in vein of Louis Prima.
	11:06am PaulRobeson1920: Wooosh woosh wooooooshh
	11:09am johnk77: amazingly great show selecter also karen o is very nice and very sweet off-stage:>
	11:11am Nardo: @Joe McG Heard a very good interview with Fonda not that long ago. I think it was Gilbert Gottfried's podcast. Worth checking out.
	11:12am Roberto: A small, crappy show? Or rather, a small urinary show?
	👻 11:12am Hughie Considine: Koo koo barabajagal?
	11:13am Roberto: YAS PLAY KID CROEOLOLOLOELOLE
	11:13am Sigurður: Let's find out
	👻 11:14am Hughie Considine: "Love is hot/ truth is molten"
	11:14am Brendan: Random pull!
	👻 11:15am tim from champaign (now washington): Raga Monday!
	11:15am Joe McG: @johnk77: She seems like she might be nice! @Brendan: I done pulled!
	11:16am Joe McG: @tim: I'll show that Bryce.
	11:16am Dean: Recently acquired a recording of the Senior Dagar Brothers, a performance at a garden house in Calcutta, 1955. It's stunning. https://www.discogs.com/Dagar-Brothers-Bihag-Kamboji-Malkosh-Calcutta-1955/release/11250208
	11:16am Joe McG: @Dean: Wow, 1955!
	11:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...hm - will since the shorthand for half a century was like RawkaRolla spontaneous conceived one particular afternoon when Bloooz & Kuntry collided on a particular street in Memphis in the mid1950s ...when no such thing is entirely the case - there's Country Swing & all kindsa things back there being discovered & exposed to this day ! ...where Rawk & Kuntry 1st mixed is a question that needs some reductifyin' to even consider perhaps...
	11:17am Rick A: Joe, you have been really living in the 70s lately between WKRP, White Line Fever and Dirty Mary... My babysitter had a big crush on Jan-Michael Vincent. It should be an icon of the era though his movie choices were not the best--Vigilante Force??--and he was not a great actor. Sadly, he lived quite a tragic self-destructive life. Is Vanishing Point on your viewing list anytime soon?
	11:17am Dean: And 1957: https://www.discogs.com/The-Senior-Dagar-Brothers-Mohinuddin-And-Aminuddin-Dagar-Rag-Todi-in-Concert-Calcutta-1957/release/6415807
	11:18am Joe McG: @Rick A.: Yeah, I think I'm regressing! I agree JMV's just about adequate, but he looked good in a trucker's cap and vest. Haven't seen "VP" lately, might be time!
	11:18am jt: "Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry" saw that 40 years ago on The Monday Night TV Movie.. My brother and I liked it but didn't quite get the whole thing... 30 years later, finally saw "Two Lane Blacktop" which is way better.
	👻 11:19am tim from champaign (now washington): In your face, Bryce!
	👻 11:21am Brian in UK: Joe, is your song section on hiatus or have I missed something.
	11:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If anyone knows any streams for Classical Indian Musics - almost all the ones I had bookmarked are defunct... I loves Bollywood - but I'm talking the Trad stuff...
	👻 11:22am tim from champaign (now washington): It took some gumption on my part to get beyond James Taylor and finally dive into Two Lane Blacktop. It is definitely worth it.
	11:22am Joe McG: @Brian: Not sure what you mean, Brian! My mind is on hiatus, but the songs seem to be showing up for me.
	11:22am fred: I also like Raga Massive's take on In C (though it's had to mess up this one) @tim from champaign: I had that thought too.
	11:23am jt: Warren Oats, amazing in his role, does most of the talking....
	👻 11:23am Brian in UK: Joe, forgot what you called it but songs that tell a story.
	11:24am Joe McG: @Brian: Ah, Story Corner! Yes, I haven't done one in a while. Good idea!
	👻 11:24am Brian in UK: Dennis Wilson mumbles delightfully as the mechanic in TLB.
	👻 11:24am tim from champaign (now washington): I started watching Kiss Me Deadly last night. I was blown away to see a wall mounted reel-to-reel answering machine in Mike Hammer's apartment. I had no idea those existed.
	11:25am Joe McG: I also re-watched "Two Lane Blacktop" last year, on a videocassette that Jim Price gave me.
	11:25am Rick A: Many have argued that with the exception of the white male centered narratives, 70s movies represent a golden age of challenging filmmaking. Arguably, even the B movies like White Line Fever offer more interest than the bloated budgeted entertainment fare of today, so not regressing, Joe.
	11:26am jt: Its worth seeing on the "Big" screen, when we ever get back to that..
	11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dennid Wilson! Kewl...
	11:27am David (in London): And a shout-out for Chris Petit's amazing 70s British road move, Radio On.
	11:27am Rick A: Hammer's apartment in Kiss Me Deadly is classic midcentury modern. When the detectives interrogate Ralph Meeker, they call him "a real bedroom dick" which was challenging subtext in the late fifties.
	11:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Like to say : Mystery = Plot Noir = Everything Else
	👻 11:28am Brian in UK: ALL films should be seen in a cinema. That was how most directors/cinematographers planned them. And the sensory deprivation of a darken room with other people is just as important. Imagine Days of Heaven on a small screen.
	11:29am David (in London): Rick A - I can only second that, with a hearty va-va-voom!
	11:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Happy Place : sea.mashable.com...
	11:30am jt: Will check out Radio On (1979 film) sometime, Thanks! ...believe there is a slamming Modern Lovers track w./ the same name.
	11:30am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I haven't seen a film in a theatre since 2007.
	👻 11:30am Brian in UK: David, did the adverts for Radio On have a 'plane going from right to left in front of a car windscreen?
	11:31am David (in London): Yvette Mimieux before The Black Hole had sucked her in. Brian, aye, that's the one.
	👻 11:31am tim from champaign (now washington): @Rick A - I caught that too.
	👻 11:31am Webhamster Henry: Creeping into Sheena territory here! I like it!
	11:32am dave wuz here: my third eye is opening
	11:32am Jason from Houston: !!!
	11:32am Roberto: More like goat scream territory.
	11:32am Brendan: Harlequin Romance has nothing on this
	11:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yvette - Akbar Khan - Baudelaire - I'm in.
	👻 11:32am tim from champaign (now washington): @DiL -The mechanic in Kiss Me Deadly was awesome!
	11:33am fred: @RevRab: re Indian classical music: Bryce does a raga show once a month or so, it's a good starting place (not enough veena to my taste, but I don't have the speakers to handle it anyway)
	11:34am David (in London): Tim, he's the only other character in the whole film that Hammer seems to have any love for.
	11:34am Spyder sabich: Yo girl. Quit yelling....
	11:34am The Oscar: I miss movie theaters so, so bad. I'm a movie critic, so between press screenings, festivals, and recreational moviegoing I would go at least once or twice a week, right up to the point that I couldn't. Once it's safe to go back, I want to see EVERYTHING I can on the big screen.
	11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx fred. That's three hours a pop I suppose...
	11:35am Lisboner Pasc: On the road and tuning in now by Van Gogh’s bridge ibb.co... ibb.co... On a soil-stealing mission!
	11:36am David (in London): Hey Pasc.
	11:37am Andres: barney.grubbs@10:32 - I read John Cooper Clarke interview during coffee break, very enjoyable, thanks for the link!
	11:37am Lisboner Pasc: AKA Langlois Bridge, here’s his painting and hello Brother David! www.vangoghstudio.com...
	11:38am Rick A: I agree regarding seeing movies in a cinema. Before the pandemic, the NYC film revival seen was really exploding, featuring a wide array of independent retrospective houses. I felt very privileged and was rigid about avoiding films on the small screen. However, the pandemic broke me. I will happily return to the cinema to see old movies when we can do that. However, now Turner Classic Movies has been my go to given our old school cable package. I saw Battleship Potemkin last night. I just hope those independent theaters will survive these trying times.
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: barney.grubbs Yeah Thx added to Reading List...
	11:39am Son Of Pantz: @The Oscar maybe you can answer this, what happened to the David Lowery remake of The Green Knight? I was so excited to see it but it seems to have vanish since Covid.
	11:39am fred: @RevRab: He usually plays three tracks in those. Anyway you won't get much classical Indian music clocking under one hour
	11:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: fred - cherry-picked so that's a plus...
	11:40am Rick A: That Mimieux/Akbar Khan track is quite the psychedelic hit. I am feeling latent hallucinations after listening to it.
	👻 11:40am tim from champaign (now washington): Dutch folk rock?
	👻 11:41am Webhamster Henry: Danish
	11:42am David (in London): Surface Noise is something of a psychedelic contact high this week. Nice one Joe 'The Acid King' McGasko.
	11:42am The Oscar: @Son of Pantz If all goes according to plan, it's set to finally come out in July! A24 has been really weird with their delayed releases-- they're only just now releasing St. Maud to streaming, which was supposed to come out last spring.
	11:43am Son Of Pantz: Good to know. Thanks!
	11:43am The Oscar: @Rick TCM has kept me sane for sure. Last weekend one of our local theaters had a pop-up popcorn sale, and I brought some home and watched Sweet Smell of Success. It was lovely.
	11:44am Dean: Not extensive, but the Ali Akbar Khan Library has a few streams from shows and classes: https://aliakbarkhanlibrary.com/concert-audio/
	👻 11:45am Brian in UK: RevRab, Doug plays some, as and when here is a link to a recent show. Normally set length. wfmu.org...
	11:46am Louie Dejesus: Digging the raga journey
	11:46am Brendan: The beaded curtain of Surface Noise has been unlocked. Enter...
	11:46am Joe B: great show Joe!
	11:47am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx Dean & BrianUK.
	👻 11:47am Brian in UK: David, I am the Lizard King, I eat at Burger King. Was never much impressed with Morrison's lyrics. (oh and other nauseous burger outlets are available)
	11:48am bukowski.: ♡♡♡!!!!!!
	11:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love 'Celebration of the Lizard'. No Burger King referenced - but it does reflect on suburbia...
	👻 11:49am tim from champaign (now washington): @DiL - I like the new handle for Joe.
	👻 11:49am Brian in UK: I remember John Peel playing Ustad Viliat Khan around 1968 and was captivated.
	11:49am David (in London): Might we have the Dave Pike Set lurking round the corner..?
	11:50am Miss G: Ananda Shankar! Was in & out but glad to hear Louis Prima! The first part with guitars was beautiful. Thanks for a fun show Joe McG!
	11:51am PaulRobeson1920: Psychedelic literally means “mind manifesting.”The originators of the term and the music makers associated with the word lived during and were born into the the shadow of WWII.
	11:51am βrian: Thanks, Joe. This was fun. For those so inclined: Irene Trudel is coming up on the hour: wfmu.org...
	👻 11:51am Brian in UK: What a great album title and vol4.
	11:51am northguineahills: muchas gracias, Joe!
	11:51am Joe McG: @David: Oh, that would have been a nice idea! @Brian: Great series, there are a lot of volumes!
	11:52am PaulRobeson1920: The context for the term has to be understood in relation to the war
	11:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The chemical intelligentsia were never entirely sure about the word 'psychedelic' - but anyhow it encompasses the experience, the music, a subculture...
	11:52am Son Of Pantz: Great show, Joe. Like a Dervish, I must whirl away.
	👻 11:53am Brian in UK: Great entertainment as ever Joe.
	11:53am Maxine: this is good stuff
	👻 11:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Joe. I like how the ragas kind of tie things together with Fridays with Bryce's raga shows. I am ready for the weekend! (Well, assuming Joe Belock plays some female-fronted pop music and then some polkas.)
	11:53am Chop Scott: Thanks Joe!
	11:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Idea that LSD & the Bomb are some kind of two sides of one coin - @ much the same time...
	11:54am PaulRobeson1920: Poland. Feb 1940. Comes to mind
	11:54am Joe McG: Hey Chop Scott! :) @Ken: Ha ha ha. JOE B., you should play a polka!
	11:54am Andrew_in_WI: I saw a band years ago called Naan Violence. They would fit in with this set.
	11:54am Rich in Washington: Joe Friday said Marijuana is the bomb.
	11:55am Rick A: Joe makes us actually anticipate Mondays, another wide ranging freeform masterpiece, Joe, thank you!
	11:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...when people needed to See - & MDMA got around when people needed to Feel...
	👻 11:55am Brian in UK: Got my Tax Receipt from SM Ken recently. HOW MUCH and the next marathon is around the corner. Ssssch.
	11:55am David (in London): Killer show today thanks Joe. Free your mind and your spleen will follow groovers.
	11:55am Brendan: My face is melting
	👻 11:56am tim from champaign (now washington): Thanks for the killer show, Joe 'Acid King' McGasko!
	11:56am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting everybody, from easy-listening start to tripped out finish. Have a good week and I'll "see" you again next Monday!
	11:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it's those clean-out looking ones got the labs & stuff...
	11:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: clean-*Cut...
	11:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Joe McG - Breaking Weird... TY Joe !
	11:57am dano59: Catchup after charging my iPod: fyi Radio On is also a Sarah Vowell book, a memoir of listening... I don't miss movie theaters so much (because rude people) but do wish i had TCM or that other quality film streaming service. Criterion Channel is gone i think. I settle for Youtube movies or cheap DVDs. (A Better Tomorrow was the latest). The Dig on Netflix was quite good.
	11:58am Rich in Washington: Thanks, Joe!
	👻 11:58am 12539: Joe Joe Joe! Thanks!
	11:58am P-90: Well done (as always) @Joe McG. Thanks!
	11:58am Baja Joe: Great stuff, Joe. Cheers!
	11:59am radioronan: Thanks Joe..thanks skeletons!
	11:59am PaulRobeson1920: Good stuff Joe! Thanks skeltons! Peace and LoVe ya’ll!
	12:00pm Louie Dejesus: Great show!
	12:00pm Phillippe Bastille: Thanks Joe

	9:12am Handy Haversack: David, Phillippe, Marley, TDK60, everyone: cold morning greets. Rev Rab, we the giant toads appreciate all such gifts! Someone thought it looked a little greenish, but that could always be algae growth in the water. If you think it looks OK, I do too!
	👻 9:13am Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Phillippe. The sun is shining brightly, but it's not really warming things up quickly enough.
	👻 9:13am Threemoons: TGIM JOe McG, fellow YipYips....
	9:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: David (in London) a little ! Time for caffeine tho... SledDawg ha! Great tho. Handy your tar your call. I reckoned green frog...
	9:13am steveo: Good morning. Enjoying the set. I was staring out the window at the top of a building under construction against the blue blue blue sky for Up, Up and Away and that felt correct
	9:15am Joe McG: In my view, Dom should've claimed composer credit on this version of "Spinning Wheel." All but unrecognizable!
	9:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...like Revolution #9 stretching out from Rev. #1...
	9:17am Phillippe Bastille: same here, Ken. Handy, we saw some canvasbacks this weekend
	9:17am steveo: it's definitely spinning though
	👻 9:17am Ken From Hyde Park: The opening track reminded me of a 70s ad jingle for Northwest Orient Airlines. #wayback
	9:18am Phillippe Bastille: steveo you said on Wake that Staysh will be talking about the comments board tonight. Are we in trouble?
	9:18am βrian: It's not going to hit 10 degrees all week.
	9:19am Strandlund: Hell Yeah CARAVAN!!
	9:19am dale: thumbs carlisle does a ripping country version of caravan too.
	9:19am David (in London): Right, I'm off for a bit to enjoy a walk in the snow and feed the crows. Back soon! Joe, keep the best stash for a little bit later please...
	9:19am PaulRobeson1920: Yip yip yip! 1966?! Like it was yesterday!
	9:19am Handy Haversack: Nice, Phillippe. I kept the sparrows, mourning doves, and juncos in seed through this last snow. Hardly seems worth hanging the other feeders back up since we're just getting snow every other day for the next ten days, it looks like.
	9:19am Terr DE: hope theres a drum solo
	9:20am SledDawg: The Wizard of Waukeshau! And Mahwah!
	9:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: They offset each other so well.
	9:20am Guido from Cologne: Hello Joe and everyone!
	9:21am steveo: @Phillippe haha. i believe he said something about how this is a rare example of a successful online community (hope I got that right). i'm looking forward to listening.
	9:21am Mike in S. Jersey: Chester 'n Lester!
	9:21am Rich in Washington: That's hilarious! I was just thinking about this very cover of Caravan! I had recently ripped this LP from my father's collection so he could listen to it on his tablet.
	9:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's a valid topic! Always thot Mark should have Kenzo on...
	9:22am PaulRobeson1920: If WFMU was a sail ship, love would be the wind
	9:22am steveo: Handy, I've had enough snow, can't you make it stop?
	9:22am Lisboner Pasc: Good morning all! France tuning in, all 68 million. Dazzling sounds!
	👻 9:22am waters7: Thanks for starting Monday, Joe. Always appreciate it.
	9:23am SledDawg: This set is a real catalog of guitar tones...Thanks Joe!
	9:23am Eagle Rock Reverie: The shadow of your smile when you Argon
	9:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...love - weirdness - desperation & determination...
	9:24am PaulRobeson1920: Woooshhh wooshhhhh wooosh
	9:24am βrian: Salut, La France !
	9:24am Handy Haversack: steveo, I haven't paid the snow bill all winter, but they won't seem to cut off the service no matter what I do. We were going to go a little ways upstate next week but now think we might have to call it off. Our car is not one that handles snow very well. It's ... vastly disappointing ...
	9:24am Joe McG: Glad you guys are enjoying some Monday morning geetar.
	9:24am Phillippe Bastille: @Handy no doves yet this winter here. Lotsa different kinds of waterfowl, though, at least 10 different kinds Good to hear steveo. As someone who spends his time on the board talking about birds, good to hear he won't be clamping down on the non-music talk. Speaking of which, great set so far, Joe!
	9:25am βrian: We $prang for winter tires last year. The difference was dramatic.
	👻 9:25am tadpoles: Yes Joe....nice. More Wes please.
	9:26am Yes: morning
	👻 9:26am Ken From Hyde Park: I am comforted by the thought that the sailing ship has a mighty boiler below decks as a backup propulsion system.
	9:27am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't tell anybody - but I don't hate Guitars.
	9:27am steveo: @handy We've got a subaru rental scheduled to head out to past where Joe is from for a couple of days next week... i hope there's not too much snow to hike a little... @Phillippe, I'll be a little surprised if -Ken mentions birds tonight
	9:28am Joe McG: Wait a second, who let this piano player in here. :)
	9:28am steveo: this guitar sounds like a piano
	9:28am Handy Haversack: βrian, one sad thing is that this is the first winter of any even mild severity (it's a thing!) we have had in years. If we had been getting a bunch of snow last Jan. and Feb.? Hurray! But this year, when we actually want to try to go sit somewhere else sometimes, it's ... punishing. We're already at more snow than at least since 2016, if not 2010. steveo, we have a 2003 Corolla. It barely likes rain!
	9:29am steveo: lol jinx
	👻 9:29am Webhamster Henry: Good morning Guitar Yippers
	9:30am dougseidel: another week another beak
	9:31am steveo: that is a nice thing about not owning a car; you get to rent new ones. (but i know kate needs for work)
	9:32am βrian: How many inches total have you gotten? About 14 years ago, we got 101 inches. Not so crazy this year.
	9:33am βrian: @steveo: In our household we had beaters for years. If we wanted to travel to visit family, we always rented.
	9:34am Brendan: Digging this swingset
	9:35am steveo: interesting way to run it Betarian
	9:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 🎵🎵 😇 🎶🎵
	9:35am Handy Haversack: Maybe 30-40" in the city total, with some melting in between. A lot more out in Jersey.
	9:36am Phillippe Bastille: @steveo (wipes brow) My beater truck pretty much died back in November -- sucking antifreeze into the engine, but it has a quarter million miles on it so I can't complain. My bride has decided that we can get by on one car. Only problem is her car is relatively new and has such a small trunk that we have to buckle the costco-sized paper towels into the back seat. Not gonna fly in the spring when we need about 20 bags of mulch... Plus being in the 'burbs, we'll totally lose our "divide and conquer" approach to running errands on the weekend.
	9:36am Will: Well this is amazing
	9:36am steveo: Phillippe, maybe a trailer?
	9:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...people always say - oh - you don't drive? You're lucky... Yeah? I don't see ya walking with me bee-otch..
	9:37am Cal Zone!: Love the opening set!
	9:38am steveo: just buy mulch on amazon?
	9:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's almost as if TheBeatles weren't bad...
	9:40am steveo: bad meaning bad or bad meaning good? (and with that i'll back off and listen)
	9:42am Dave: Great Set. Just got introduced to Buddy Fite today. Thank you!
	9:42am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...they were bad - but not evil...
	9:42am βrian: "Please bring goulash for all of my friends."
	9:42am Son Of Pantz: Joe dropping all the $5 words this morning! Stringent and Burnished. Them's some wizbangers.
	9:42am Phillippe Bastille: It's pretty low-slung, so I don't think a hitch would be much help, steveo. Delivery is a good option though.
	9:42am Alice: Joe! This is a perfect playlist for working this morning. Thank you :)
	9:43am PaulRobeson1920: Thats some baHd weed... 1966 writing nothing, nothing nothing
	9:44am p/b: GM Joe FMUpeople - trying to keep it together still way too far from bklyn, but coming home this weekend for a few, so light love and lets go with that jazzy ass guitar works for me at least for now - may need some drums soon...
	9:44am βrian: We bought a used folding trailer for $250. It paid for itself the first year. (That was the Year of Horse Poo.)
	9:46am Mike W: good morning fellow Surfactants
	9:47am steveo: great first set, I enjoyed all the tones i've had my eye on a particular bike trailer for years, but haven't pulled the trigger we just got a folding wagon for trips to the food co-op. seems better than the old granny cart, so far
	9:49am Steve from Dunwoody: The command from on high: If You Play It, Say It
	9:49am βrian: Wait, let me unbutton my shirt a few notches ...
	9:49am Handy Haversack: Formula is working, Joe! Also, cherry axe, Bart Dude. steveo, our granny cart busted a wheel coming back from the pet-food store a couple of months back, and if we have yet to replace it. Hard times.
	9:49am TDK60: Thanks Joe for mentioning the musicians, titles, etc. Some of us do appreciate this, being into music.
	9:50am Joe McG: @TDK60: Ha ha ha @Handy: I like the formula!
	9:50am βrian: Can you mod one of those all-terrain baby transports?
	9:50am Miss G: Ah! Woke up in the middle of the night so am able to hear this show -- when I heard Tom Jones as a beatnik poet the other day I almost fell off of my chair! Wondered what you thought Joe! L
	9:51am steveo: yeah, Handy, that's what happened to ours; sorta sucked pushing a 3-wheeled granny cart half a mile with 100 lbs of groceries
	9:51am Joe McG: @Miss G: Thanks for the head's up on this new album!
	9:51am Brendan: After hearing Buddy Fite , It would be cool to hear Buddy Love (from the original soundtrack). After all, he’s a lover not a fighter, but he’s also a fighter so don’t try anything funny. Nutty.
	9:52am Handy Haversack: I feel like I should be standing on Zanzibar or something.
	9:52am PaulRobeson1920: @Ken From Hyde Park- I imagine Anthracite coal mined in Wales and Pennsylvania powering that steamer! BABY I love walking the shore at Jones Beach State Park and finding old pieces coal that had been drifting on the waves for years. Sometimes they washed up at the beach after a big storm. Always groovy to find a shiny piece of anthracite in the sand
	9:52am Rachel Bo Bachel: Sounds so much like “I Might Be Wrong” by Radiohead!
	9:53am βrian: Yes, Rachel!
	9:53am steveo: i like this; not what i expected; good for Tom
	👻 9:53am Hughie Considine: This feels like a companion piece to Phil Lynott's "Talk in '79."
	9:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: [snaps Beat fingers] Tom !
	9:53am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Rachel Bo Bachel: I thought that guitar riff was familiar. Still, I really dig this!
	9:54am Miss G: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khgdwZmWkXc
	9:54am Malcolm: wtf tom jones slam poet
	9:54am Asheville Jon: Tom is getting a little shatner~esque in his delivery....
	9:54am Blacktooth: Tom Jones blowing my mind here
	9:54am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe & all! LOVE this new Tom Jones.
	9:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Great! Ironic for a great Singer...
	9:55am PaulRobeson1920: Wash* Hell yeah!
	9:55am steveo: speaking of reality stars, i started reading Homeland Elegies -- really good so far
	9:55am dano59: Wow, this is tge Todd Snider song! Great version
	9:55am Yes: :)
	9:55am Terr DE: Tom did some really good blues on Conan a long while back. Hes not just Vegas ready
	9:56am The Oscar: Mornin'! I was genuinely expecting this to be an acoustic cover of "Ice Ice Baby."
	👻 9:56am Hughie Considine: Meanwhile, the Boss is losing some long-time fans after that Jeep ad. Apparently Little Early Burly came by in his curly-wurly and tried to run him over.
	9:57am Joe McG: @Hughie: Wow, the Boss did a car ad?
	9:58am Niko, Copenhagen: Hello to Joe and listeners. From snowy Denmark!
	👻 9:58am waters7: Love this version of Under Pressure. Really difficult to do this. Also--Tom Jones! Still relevant. Boyo!
	👻 9:58am Hughie Considine: Well, it was more like a solemn benediction for all of us to meet in the middle (the literal middle) in the guise of a Jeep ad. It strains credulity.
	9:58am Rich in Washington: As a Washingtonian, I am legally obligated to point out that Willie was a radio DJ in Vancouver Washington in the 1950s anytime his name comes up.
	9:59am steveo: amazing cover
	9:59am Joe McG: Hey Niko, I love your town! Snowy here, too. Hey, Greg! @Rich: Didn't know that!
	👻 9:59am karlward: This is hypnotic
	9:59am Rich in Washington: there's a mural commemorating his brief stint on some derelict building on Main Street.
	10:00am Handy Haversack: It was horrific, Hughie. This is fantastic. And these 2020 songs don't feel at all dated, even with the hurly-burly pace of modern culture.
	10:02am Lisboner Pasc: That Tom Jones track, that blindsided me! Great stuff Joe!
	10:03am Jessie: Thanks for this Nancy Sinatra cover of Morrissey's "Let Me Kiss You" Made my Monday morning!
	10:03am Joe McG: @Pasc: Tom's new LP looks promising, mostly cover tunes, but interesting ones! Glad he's recording again after losing his wife.
	10:05am Rick A: WFMU's own Dennis Diken played drums on that Nancy Sinatra album though I don't know if he played on that song. The album features a musical cast of a thousand.
	10:05am Handy Haversack: Wow, this set is star-studded -- both the artists and the clicky variety. Fantastic, Joe!
	10:07am Joe McG: @Rick: Yes, that track was recorded in Hoboken mostly!
	👻 10:09am Hughie Considine: I've been unable to get my Surface Noise on lately, so it's great to be here. Really digging this set.
	10:11am Brendan: And now we dance
	10:11am Doug in JC: Reception report: the signal still leaks through the Holland tunnel emergency exits a little bit
	10:12am dano59: Nancy's last was in 2014, quite unexpected. I loved her epic cover of Holly Holy.
	10:13am steveo: hey waitaminute that's a new profile pic, handy. same artist? is that symbolism?
	10:14am Handy Haversack: @steveo: Rev Rab 11/63 retouched and centered it for me since it was a little off-center before. Now you really get a sense of a giant toad eating a dude.
	10:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love JCC's voice as well as writing...
	10:15am steveo: aha!
	👻 10:16am Hughie Considine: Aw, man, this song is a gas.
	10:16am The Oscar: I'd like to go to a steak place with Mark E. Smith.
	10:16am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I live about a mile from a place that used to be called The Cheese House. True story! swhplibrary.net...
	👻 10:21am Hughie Considine: The Cheeeese.... House. Totally works!
	10:21am βrian: "I'm going steady with Iron Ore Betty and she's going steady with me."
	10:23am Roberto: Most romantic ballad of all time? It's definitely up there.
	10:23am Joe McG: @Roberto: Right up there with Johnny Mathis.
	10:24am northguineahills: what's Kiwi Jr, New Caledonia? (if NZ is Australia's Canada, then what's their Jr partner?).
	10:25am northguineahills: Ne'er mind, New Caledonia is Francophone, Tokelau, maybe?
	10:26am fionnland: After the rugby performance this weekend, quite happy for old Caledonia to take up the Kiwi Jr. mantle
	👻 10:27am Ken From Hyde Park: "The Falklands, ngh" ... someone, probably.
	10:29am Hubig Pie: I like beer I like 2 beers even more
	10:29am Roberto: Ugh. F'in' Gordon.
	10:30am northguineahills: I'm actually getting my hair cut for the first time in months (( need to look presentable for interviews). Hubig Pie is full of good ideas...
	10:31am βrian: Just got my hair cut yesterday. In the kitchen, naturally.
	10:32am northguineahills: @fionnland: Scotland beat the All Blacks!!!
	10:32am Roberto: Hey, that's my pickup line!
	10:32am barney.grubbs: There’s a recent interview w/ John Cooper Clarke in the believer: https://believermag.com/an-interview-with-john-cooper-clarke/
	10:34am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I've got a Neighborhoods record....uh....The High Hard One?
	10:35am The Oscar: Aw, love this song! It's on Rhino's "DIY: Mass Ave" compilation, which is one of the secret best punk records ever released.
	10:35am fionnland: @northguineahills Well we beat England at Twickenham in a complete performance, so All Black-esque
	👻 10:36am Hughie Considine: That DIY series is pure gold.
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So yes - Bawstin...
	10:36am The Oscar: I remember getting the Mass Ave comp right before going to college and being PSYCHED about moving to Boston!
	10:37am Son Of Pantz: Never trust a Rubber Duck
	👻 10:37am Webhamster Henry: Hey Good Buddy!
	10:38am Son Of Pantz: Got Bears in the air. Better put the pedal to the metal, Good Buddy!
	10:38am holland oats: I'm into C.B.
	10:38am Dennis Diken: 'ello Joe and everyone!
	10:38am David (in London): Back in the room, and I've got my ears on, 10.4.
	10:38am Justin B.: Let them truckers roll 10-4
	10:38am The Oscar: Some good hambone on this Sherri Pond.
	10:38am northguineahills: @fionnland: I don't remember Scotland being in the upper echelons of rugby checks notes, since I was born....
	10:39am Strandlund: Keep on Truckin'
	10:39am JG: The Willie Nelson duet with Karen O was nice. Coincidentally I was in a donut shop yesterday and heard another Willie duet. It was Beer for my Horses Whisky for My Men done with Toby Kieth. It was a good version
	👻 10:39am Hughie Considine: I'm getting a strong "Potato's in the Paddy Wagon' vibe here.
	10:39am Justin B.: Did Sherri Pond make any Mannheim Steamroller sequels?
	10:40am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Front door or the back door...ha!
	10:40am The Oscar: That felt like one of Clay's traffic report skits.
	10:40am northguineahills: Sheet, I missed Karen O w/ Willie. (actually danced w/ her, was an old crush of mine, and I got so nervous I ran off).
	10:40am David (in London): Ah, hello Hughie. Long time, no see.
	👻 10:40am Webhamster Henry: Is there a "Talk like a CB Trucker" Day like "Talk like a Pirate Day"?
	10:40am northguineahills: I'm assuming that Sherri Pond is a response song...
	👻 10:40am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Yankee Doodle Dandy.
	10:41am David (in London): "OK, so, we're agreed then? We're going with the name Toast?"
	👻 10:41am Hughie Considine: Hey David! How's London today?
	10:41am Joe McG: @Brian: I wish I had a toilet paper holder that played "Yankee Doodle Dandy."
	👻 10:42am Brian in UK: fionnland, well played Scotland but walk before you run.
	10:42am βrian: Autonomous trucks won't use CBs, I'm guessing.
	10:42am northguineahills: @Henry: We'd all need nom de camionneurs....
	10:43am northguineahills: Dig this REM....
	👻 10:43am Threemoons: Love this REM
	10:43am Handy Haversack: Ahhhhhhhhhh. "So. Central Rain." Direct line to my heart. Joe, no need to apologize.
	10:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 1984 - gawd - sighs...
	10:43am northguineahills: @Threemoons: jinx!
	10:44am northguineahills: et Handy!
	👻 10:44am waters7: I think that I liked this REM song so much that everything that came afterwards was downhill--to me.
	10:44am Joe McG: @Handy: No worries. I love almost everything about this record.
	10:44am northguineahills: y Rev Rabbit....
	10:44am nardo: Might be fun to watch one of those many 70's CB radio movies sometime soon.
	10:44am Hubig Pie: David Letterman brought this song to me TV set
	10:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Whole handful of earliest albums really...
	10:44am Joe McG: @nardo: I watched "White Line Fever" over the weekend!
	👻 10:44am Webhamster Henry: @ngh I'm obviously Hamster Wheeler.
	10:45am Handy Haversack: Word, Joe. It's so great. R.E.M. were my first, third, and fifth concerts.
	10:45am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	10:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Did not see them. :(
	10:46am nardo: That's a good one Joe. There's one with Peter Fonda and Jerry Reed. Can't go wrong with those two together.
	10:46am steveo: are you saying the concerts were odd, HH?
	10:47am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I saw R.E.M. on the Murmur tour (openers: Lets Active) at the University of Maine. They were terrific.
	👻 10:47am Webhamster Henry: Oh man! One of my all time fave segues is Tammy to Slave To The Rhythm. (From WBAI's Peter Bochan)
	10:47am northguineahills: @Henry: The trucker who's rig that is stuck in the mud and running in place...
	10:47am Handy Haversack: Oddfellows Local, steveo. Rev Rab, I had the advantage of proximity. One of the few advantages of being "raised" in Atlanta.
	10:48am Joe McG: @nardo: Last year I rewatched Peter Fonda in "Dirty Mary Crazy Larry." Liked it (again)!
	10:48am David (in London): Snowy but pleasant thanks Hughie. And warmed by McGaskoSound©
	10:48am paddy in matawan: When John Goodman sings this in the woods in the movie The Wrong Guys....
	10:48am Woo: I missed the Neighborhoods? That song is 41 years old? No more questions.
	10:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...rewrite for Tamiflu or should I lay off comments before the Techtonic expose-ay...
	10:49am βrian: A friend's handle was Bionic Beaver. She used the Timex slogan to sign off.
	👻 10:49am Brian in UK: Saw a BBC Gram Parsons doc with Peter Buck singing the praises of Byrdsesque sounds and the shock of Sweetheart of the Rodeo. I bought it on release and it seemed fine, I was carrying not music genre baggage as I did not really know Country & Western as it was called then..
	10:50am Rich in Bay Ridge: Tirez Tirez! Holy crap, I saw them at the Ritz...1986? Opening for The Bears.
	10:50am Joe McG: @Brian: Wow, Bionic Beaver is a great CB name.
	10:51am Andres: Morning Joe and all! As a kid, with too much time on my hands watching too much television, I saw Entertainment Tonight interviewing Michael Stipe and REM promoting So. Central Rain. My intro to the band.
	10:51am Son Of Pantz: I heard it said that REM once toured with Camper Van Beethoven back in the day, and suddenly after that Peter Buck had mandolin on almost every song after.
	10:51am JG: @ Joe, Dirty Mary Crazy Larry was never on tv for like 20 years and now there is a cable channel that shows it every other day. I am ruining it for myself, but I love everything about that movie. Fonda delivering most of his lines followed by a psycotic giggle, the badassery of vic morrow, and susan george is so cute
	👻 10:52am tim from champaign (now washington): Howdy Joe and everybodee! I'm John Cale/Eno sounds of Tirez Tirez.
	10:53am Rick A: Regretfully, I first saw REM on the Life's Rich Pageantry tour which was good though I wish I had seen them on previous album tours. Michael Stipe really hammed it up on stage. Guadalcanal Diary opened for them.
	10:53am northguineahills: Unfortunately, by the time I was in HS, REM was huge, so, I could never afford to see them.
	10:53am David (in London): And Gram credited the first country rock album, probably rightly, to The Downliner Sect. You had to pretty ballsy to release an album of British country rock in 1965. The market was, ahem, limited...
	10:54am Joe McG: @JG: Agree 100%.
	10:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Limited enuff for Sweetheart of the Rodeo when it came out ! No?
	10:55am Hubig Pie: Saw REM on the Green tour. Michael Stipe sported a mullet
	10:55am David (in London): Woah, Stooges in the house!
	10:56am Louie Dejesus: Oh yeah.... Kill City rules
	10:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Visions of Johanna? Viscerals of Johanna...
	10:56am JR HTX: wow. never heard this version of Johanna, nice
	10:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I wanna play Gittar like TheStooges. Yerknow??
	10:57am Rich in Bay Ridge: By the time I started liking REM, it was tough to get a ticket. Never saw them but have seen Pete and Mike countless times with Scott McCaughey's various projects.
	👻 10:57am tim from champaign (now washington): Fuck yeah, Joe! I used to have this Stooges bootleg called Rubber Legs. The version of Johanna on that drew blood.
	10:57am PaulRobeson1920: Scattered, nice tune! waiting for you to, come along
	👻 10:57am Brian in UK: David is that so, there is a lot of HooHaa about the first country rock album/song/track.
	👻 10:57am YETI BOB: @RevRab: That's a lot easier than playing guitar like Pat Martino or Joe Pass!
	10:57am Baja Joe: Hidey ho Joe.
	10:58am jt: Iggy is God
	10:58am Handy Haversack: Vicious of Johanna? Absolutely fantastical and brilliant show today, Joe! Really brought more than my share of scherzo. Thanks, Joe! Dog and I are going to go see how icy the bridge is. If we make it back, hope to see some of youse all later on at the Next Joe's Place.
	👻 10:59am Brian in UK: What is this God you write of?
	10:59am turtles: Great tune!
	10:59am Baja Joe: Can't go wrong with Louis P.
	10:59am nardo: @Joe McG I'm adding that to my list of films to watch again soonish. Coincidentally, I watched Fonda in The Hired Hand within the last year. Had never seen that one and I really like it. Had been listening to a lot of Bruce Langhorne too.
	👻 11:00am tim from champaign (now washington): Imagine Louis Prima and Iggy doing a sow together. I'd expect Iggy would turn into Bugs Bunny doing flips all around the stage giving the musicians smackers.
	👻 11:00am tim from champaign (now washington): sow = show
	11:01am David (in London): Tim, yeah, that one on Rubber Legs is gear, isn't it? Brian, well, The Country Sect came out in 1965, so that's pretty early. I interviewed Don Crane some years ago, and Gram Parsons told him that he acknowledged the Sect as the first. Whether there are earlier examples in the musical fossil record, I don't know.
	11:01am Joe McG: @nardo: Beautiful film, beautiful soundtrack.
	11:02am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I love the use of Prima's stuff in Big Night (re-watched recently)
	11:03am JG: @ nardo, great movie. Great music. My theory regarding Peter Fonda is that he actually directed Easy Rider because Hopper was stoned all the time. Hopper took the credit though and thats why Hpper and Fonda were not friends later in life. I believe this because Fonda continued to direct good movies and Hopper while an awsome actor, never directed another good movie
	11:05am nardo: Nick Apollo Forte died in 2020. He played Lou Canova in Woody Allen's Broadway Danny Rose. Hands down one of my favorite Woody films. Lou Canova is a lounge singer in the film in vein of Louis Prima.
	11:06am PaulRobeson1920: Wooosh woosh wooooooshh
	11:09am johnk77: amazingly great show selecter also karen o is very nice and very sweet off-stage:>
	11:11am Nardo: @Joe McG Heard a very good interview with Fonda not that long ago. I think it was Gilbert Gottfried's podcast. Worth checking out.
	11:12am Roberto: A small, crappy show? Or rather, a small urinary show?
	👻 11:12am Hughie Considine: Koo koo barabajagal?
	11:13am Roberto: YAS PLAY KID CROEOLOLOLOELOLE
	11:13am Sigurður: Let's find out
	👻 11:14am Hughie Considine: "Love is hot/ truth is molten"
	11:14am Brendan: Random pull!
	👻 11:15am tim from champaign (now washington): Raga Monday!
	11:15am Joe McG: @johnk77: She seems like she might be nice! @Brendan: I done pulled!
	11:16am Joe McG: @tim: I'll show that Bryce.
	11:16am Dean: Recently acquired a recording of the Senior Dagar Brothers, a performance at a garden house in Calcutta, 1955. It's stunning. https://www.discogs.com/Dagar-Brothers-Bihag-Kamboji-Malkosh-Calcutta-1955/release/11250208
	11:16am Joe McG: @Dean: Wow, 1955!
	11:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...hm - will since the shorthand for half a century was like RawkaRolla spontaneous conceived one particular afternoon when Bloooz & Kuntry collided on a particular street in Memphis in the mid1950s ...when no such thing is entirely the case - there's Country Swing & all kindsa things back there being discovered & exposed to this day ! ...where Rawk & Kuntry 1st mixed is a question that needs some reductifyin' to even consider perhaps...
	11:17am Rick A: Joe, you have been really living in the 70s lately between WKRP, White Line Fever and Dirty Mary... My babysitter had a big crush on Jan-Michael Vincent. It should be an icon of the era though his movie choices were not the best--Vigilante Force??--and he was not a great actor. Sadly, he lived quite a tragic self-destructive life. Is Vanishing Point on your viewing list anytime soon?
	11:17am Dean: And 1957: https://www.discogs.com/The-Senior-Dagar-Brothers-Mohinuddin-And-Aminuddin-Dagar-Rag-Todi-in-Concert-Calcutta-1957/release/6415807
	11:18am Joe McG: @Rick A.: Yeah, I think I'm regressing! I agree JMV's just about adequate, but he looked good in a trucker's cap and vest. Haven't seen "VP" lately, might be time!
	11:18am jt: "Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry" saw that 40 years ago on The Monday Night TV Movie.. My brother and I liked it but didn't quite get the whole thing... 30 years later, finally saw "Two Lane Blacktop" which is way better.
	👻 11:19am tim from champaign (now washington): In your face, Bryce!
	👻 11:21am Brian in UK: Joe, is your song section on hiatus or have I missed something.
	11:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If anyone knows any streams for Classical Indian Musics - almost all the ones I had bookmarked are defunct... I loves Bollywood - but I'm talking the Trad stuff...
	👻 11:22am tim from champaign (now washington): It took some gumption on my part to get beyond James Taylor and finally dive into Two Lane Blacktop. It is definitely worth it.
	11:22am Joe McG: @Brian: Not sure what you mean, Brian! My mind is on hiatus, but the songs seem to be showing up for me.
	11:22am fred: I also like Raga Massive's take on In C (though it's had to mess up this one) @tim from champaign: I had that thought too.
	11:23am jt: Warren Oats, amazing in his role, does most of the talking....
	👻 11:23am Brian in UK: Joe, forgot what you called it but songs that tell a story.
	11:24am Joe McG: @Brian: Ah, Story Corner! Yes, I haven't done one in a while. Good idea!
	👻 11:24am Brian in UK: Dennis Wilson mumbles delightfully as the mechanic in TLB.
	👻 11:24am tim from champaign (now washington): I started watching Kiss Me Deadly last night. I was blown away to see a wall mounted reel-to-reel answering machine in Mike Hammer's apartment. I had no idea those existed.
	11:25am Joe McG: I also re-watched "Two Lane Blacktop" last year, on a videocassette that Jim Price gave me.
	11:25am Rick A: Many have argued that with the exception of the white male centered narratives, 70s movies represent a golden age of challenging filmmaking. Arguably, even the B movies like White Line Fever offer more interest than the bloated budgeted entertainment fare of today, so not regressing, Joe.
	11:26am jt: Its worth seeing on the "Big" screen, when we ever get back to that..
	11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dennid Wilson! Kewl...
	11:27am David (in London): And a shout-out for Chris Petit's amazing 70s British road move, Radio On.
	11:27am Rick A: Hammer's apartment in Kiss Me Deadly is classic midcentury modern. When the detectives interrogate Ralph Meeker, they call him "a real bedroom dick" which was challenging subtext in the late fifties.
	11:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Like to say : Mystery = Plot Noir = Everything Else
	👻 11:28am Brian in UK: ALL films should be seen in a cinema. That was how most directors/cinematographers planned them. And the sensory deprivation of a darken room with other people is just as important. Imagine Days of Heaven on a small screen.
	11:29am David (in London): Rick A - I can only second that, with a hearty va-va-voom!
	11:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Happy Place : sea.mashable.com...
	11:30am jt: Will check out Radio On (1979 film) sometime, Thanks! ...believe there is a slamming Modern Lovers track w./ the same name.
	11:30am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I haven't seen a film in a theatre since 2007.
	👻 11:30am Brian in UK: David, did the adverts for Radio On have a 'plane going from right to left in front of a car windscreen?
	11:31am David (in London): Yvette Mimieux before The Black Hole had sucked her in. Brian, aye, that's the one.
	👻 11:31am tim from champaign (now washington): @Rick A - I caught that too.
	👻 11:31am Webhamster Henry: Creeping into Sheena territory here! I like it!
	11:32am dave wuz here: my third eye is opening
	11:32am Jason from Houston: !!!
	11:32am Roberto: More like goat scream territory.
	11:32am Brendan: Harlequin Romance has nothing on this
	11:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yvette - Akbar Khan - Baudelaire - I'm in.
	👻 11:32am tim from champaign (now washington): @DiL -The mechanic in Kiss Me Deadly was awesome!
	11:33am fred: @RevRab: re Indian classical music: Bryce does a raga show once a month or so, it's a good starting place (not enough veena to my taste, but I don't have the speakers to handle it anyway)
	11:34am David (in London): Tim, he's the only other character in the whole film that Hammer seems to have any love for.
	11:34am Spyder sabich: Yo girl. Quit yelling....
	11:34am The Oscar: I miss movie theaters so, so bad. I'm a movie critic, so between press screenings, festivals, and recreational moviegoing I would go at least once or twice a week, right up to the point that I couldn't. Once it's safe to go back, I want to see EVERYTHING I can on the big screen.
	11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx fred. That's three hours a pop I suppose...
	11:35am Lisboner Pasc: On the road and tuning in now by Van Gogh’s bridge ibb.co... ibb.co... On a soil-stealing mission!
	11:36am David (in London): Hey Pasc.
	11:37am Andres: barney.grubbs@10:32 - I read John Cooper Clarke interview during coffee break, very enjoyable, thanks for the link!
	11:37am Lisboner Pasc: AKA Langlois Bridge, here’s his painting and hello Brother David! www.vangoghstudio.com...
	11:38am Rick A: I agree regarding seeing movies in a cinema. Before the pandemic, the NYC film revival seen was really exploding, featuring a wide array of independent retrospective houses. I felt very privileged and was rigid about avoiding films on the small screen. However, the pandemic broke me. I will happily return to the cinema to see old movies when we can do that. However, now Turner Classic Movies has been my go to given our old school cable package. I saw Battleship Potemkin last night. I just hope those independent theaters will survive these trying times.
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: barney.grubbs Yeah Thx added to Reading List...
	11:39am Son Of Pantz: @The Oscar maybe you can answer this, what happened to the David Lowery remake of The Green Knight? I was so excited to see it but it seems to have vanish since Covid.
	11:39am fred: @RevRab: He usually plays three tracks in those. Anyway you won't get much classical Indian music clocking under one hour
	11:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: fred - cherry-picked so that's a plus...
	11:40am Rick A: That Mimieux/Akbar Khan track is quite the psychedelic hit. I am feeling latent hallucinations after listening to it.
	👻 11:40am tim from champaign (now washington): Dutch folk rock?
	👻 11:41am Webhamster Henry: Danish
	11:42am David (in London): Surface Noise is something of a psychedelic contact high this week. Nice one Joe 'The Acid King' McGasko.
	11:42am The Oscar: @Son of Pantz If all goes according to plan, it's set to finally come out in July! A24 has been really weird with their delayed releases-- they're only just now releasing St. Maud to streaming, which was supposed to come out last spring.
	11:43am Son Of Pantz: Good to know. Thanks!
	11:43am The Oscar: @Rick TCM has kept me sane for sure. Last weekend one of our local theaters had a pop-up popcorn sale, and I brought some home and watched Sweet Smell of Success. It was lovely.
	11:44am Dean: Not extensive, but the Ali Akbar Khan Library has a few streams from shows and classes: https://aliakbarkhanlibrary.com/concert-audio/
	👻 11:45am Brian in UK: RevRab, Doug plays some, as and when here is a link to a recent show. Normally set length. wfmu.org...
	11:46am Louie Dejesus: Digging the raga journey
	11:46am Brendan: The beaded curtain of Surface Noise has been unlocked. Enter...
	11:46am Joe B: great show Joe!
	11:47am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx Dean & BrianUK.
	👻 11:47am Brian in UK: David, I am the Lizard King, I eat at Burger King. Was never much impressed with Morrison's lyrics. (oh and other nauseous burger outlets are available)
	11:48am bukowski.: ♡♡♡!!!!!!
	11:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love 'Celebration of the Lizard'. No Burger King referenced - but it does reflect on suburbia...
	👻 11:49am tim from champaign (now washington): @DiL - I like the new handle for Joe.
	👻 11:49am Brian in UK: I remember John Peel playing Ustad Viliat Khan around 1968 and was captivated.
	11:49am David (in London): Might we have the Dave Pike Set lurking round the corner..?
	11:50am Miss G: Ananda Shankar! Was in & out but glad to hear Louis Prima! The first part with guitars was beautiful. Thanks for a fun show Joe McG!
	11:51am PaulRobeson1920: Psychedelic literally means “mind manifesting.”The originators of the term and the music makers associated with the word lived during and were born into the the shadow of WWII.
	11:51am βrian: Thanks, Joe. This was fun. For those so inclined: Irene Trudel is coming up on the hour: wfmu.org...
	👻 11:51am Brian in UK: What a great album title and vol4.
	11:51am northguineahills: muchas gracias, Joe!
	11:51am Joe McG: @David: Oh, that would have been a nice idea! @Brian: Great series, there are a lot of volumes!
	11:52am PaulRobeson1920: The context for the term has to be understood in relation to the war
	11:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The chemical intelligentsia were never entirely sure about the word 'psychedelic' - but anyhow it encompasses the experience, the music, a subculture...
	11:52am Son Of Pantz: Great show, Joe. Like a Dervish, I must whirl away.
	👻 11:53am Brian in UK: Great entertainment as ever Joe.
	11:53am Maxine: this is good stuff
	👻 11:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Joe. I like how the ragas kind of tie things together with Fridays with Bryce's raga shows. I am ready for the weekend! (Well, assuming Joe Belock plays some female-fronted pop music and then some polkas.)
	11:53am Chop Scott: Thanks Joe!
	11:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Idea that LSD & the Bomb are some kind of two sides of one coin - @ much the same time...
	11:54am PaulRobeson1920: Poland. Feb 1940. Comes to mind
	11:54am Joe McG: Hey Chop Scott! :) @Ken: Ha ha ha. JOE B., you should play a polka!
	11:54am Andrew_in_WI: I saw a band years ago called Naan Violence. They would fit in with this set.
	11:54am Rich in Washington: Joe Friday said Marijuana is the bomb.
	11:55am Rick A: Joe makes us actually anticipate Mondays, another wide ranging freeform masterpiece, Joe, thank you!
	11:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...when people needed to See - & MDMA got around when people needed to Feel...
	👻 11:55am Brian in UK: Got my Tax Receipt from SM Ken recently. HOW MUCH and the next marathon is around the corner. Ssssch.
	11:55am David (in London): Killer show today thanks Joe. Free your mind and your spleen will follow groovers.
	11:55am Brendan: My face is melting
	👻 11:56am tim from champaign (now washington): Thanks for the killer show, Joe 'Acid King' McGasko!
	11:56am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting everybody, from easy-listening start to tripped out finish. Have a good week and I'll "see" you again next Monday!
	11:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it's those clean-out looking ones got the labs & stuff...
	11:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: clean-*Cut...
	11:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Joe McG - Breaking Weird... TY Joe !
	11:57am dano59: Catchup after charging my iPod: fyi Radio On is also a Sarah Vowell book, a memoir of listening... I don't miss movie theaters so much (because rude people) but do wish i had TCM or that other quality film streaming service. Criterion Channel is gone i think. I settle for Youtube movies or cheap DVDs. (A Better Tomorrow was the latest). The Dig on Netflix was quite good.
	11:58am Rich in Washington: Thanks, Joe!
	👻 11:58am 12539: Joe Joe Joe! Thanks!
	11:58am P-90: Well done (as always) @Joe McG. Thanks!
	11:58am Baja Joe: Great stuff, Joe. Cheers!
	11:59am radioronan: Thanks Joe..thanks skeletons!
	11:59am PaulRobeson1920: Good stuff Joe! Thanks skeltons! Peace and LoVe ya’ll!
