	9:16am Handy Haversack: Now that's what I call album art: external-content.duckduckgo.com...
	9:17am Rick A: I just noticed that Art Van Damme exited two months before his 90th birthday, kind of a drag.
	9:18am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Frank Marocco & Mahogany Rush
	9:18am dano59: I like this Caravan too - always loved the Disciples of Soul version.
	9:20am dano59: Handy - that almost looks like one of those tax-scam “fake albums”
	9:20am Handy Haversack: The back cover is pretty amazing too, dan059.
	9:21am Joe McG: Hey folks, welcome to the show!
	9:22am Paul in the OC: Pantz: 16-33-45-78-36-24-34 :D
	9:22am dano59: I think we’re in store for either Lady of Spain or The Whiskey Rabbi
	9:22am P-90: Dom Frontiere catches the mood perfectly. Hi Joe McG.
	👻 9:23am DjLorraine: Maybe i could be a page turner for accordian playing gorillas
	9:23am rx scabin: What a soundtrack to my morning. It makes the idea of work less dreadful.
	👻 9:24am Webhamster Henry: Accordion + Timpani -> winning combo.
	👻 9:24am Webhamster Henry: You should throw in a ringer track from the Harmonicats.
	9:25am rx scabin: Who knew besides Joe McG that the accordion has such curative powers?
	9:25am P-90: The only nonhuman primates I’ve seen play accordion have been chimpanzees, who turn the pages with their tongues as they play. Verrry prehensile, if you dig.
	9:26am Claire from Montclair: Swing!
	9:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...considering that every Rhythm is like an algorithm for Moving Thru Life - Rawk was received as an affront to Swing... The chimpanzee arm architecture is in fact superior for Swinging...
	9:28am Cooh John: Hello Joe. Celebrating the Federal holiday by listening to Surface Noise.
	9:28am Brendan: What a swinging squeezebox set. i ‘m going to customize a car like one of those articulating buses and drive the first Honda Accordian. When I want to sound the horn, I’ll just speed up then pump the brakes.
	👻 9:28am Ken From Hyde Park: Myron Floren's birthday? No, that was November 5.
	9:29am mlsgrrl: A rough morning over here, very appreciative for the accordion. It is a balm for my spiky soul this morning.
	9:30am Cooh John: Did not see you there, DjLorraine. 🙋
	👻 9:31am yerfriendpaul: Loved that first set!
	9:32am joeymargaret: Good morning, Joe McG and all! I tried to learn the accordion but it just didn't take. That was a fun set!
	👻 9:32am LastWhiteRhino: What's the difference between an accordion and an onion? No one cries when you cut up an accordion
	9:33am Handy Haversack: I love this plan, Brendan. Hey, Cooh John, DjLorraine, mlsgrrl!
	9:34am Shredders: What's the difference between a ukulele and a banjolele? Banjoleles burn for longer
	9:35am The Butterman: What did the banjo player get for his birthday? Drool!
	👻 9:36am Brian in UK: Hey Joe, your show coincides with the ending of four days serious storming here.
	9:37am βrian: @BiUK: Is that another term for a pub crawl?
	9:37am Shredders: What do you call 50 accordians at the bottom of the ocean? A good start
	👻 9:38am Brian in UK: βrian, if only.
	9:38am The Butterman: You know, peoples/roommates/ wives hatred for banjo has really made it impossible to improve and develop my banjo skills over the years. Sweet! Bappi! Nice joe!
	👻 9:39am DjLorraine: Brian in UK bar hopping?
	9:40am Handy Haversack: Butterman, have you checked out Muskeg Mudsuck? They've gotten some play on Ken's show and I think Michele's. Good stuff. muskegmudsuck.bandcamp.com...
	9:40am The Oscar: Mornin’! Listening over the airwaves this morning in my NY hotel room, and this is blowing my mind right now.
	9:41am βrian: I mean, that would make meteorological reports so much more interesting.
	👻 9:41am Ken From Hyde Park: Remember when Apu and Manjula used to make out to this hymn?
	9:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bollywood people invented the 'MashUp' 40 (?) years before there was a word for it...
	👻 9:41am tadpoles: Hey Joe....I have to say what I presume is a slice of Bollywood Rock 'n' Roll is great stuff!
	9:42am goyim in the am: Inna Bollywood “Wild Thing”, baby /. Dontcha know that I luh-huv yoo-ooh…
	9:42am The Butterman: I’ll check it out Handy, thanks.
	👻 9:42am Brian in UK: DjLorraine, the pubs over here are closing at a rapid rate these last few years so the options are decreasing. βrian Meteorological reports around the world can be quite bizarre.
	9:43am StringOFperils: @butterman > Same here for piano. In my experience, people like to vocally support the arts, but generally, they're not too keen on individuals practicing those arts anywhere near them.
	9:44am βrian: "Ale force winds" comes to mind ...
	9:44am Polly.: great disco Joe!
	9:44am The Butterman: Stringofpearls, good thing I could develop my artist/painter skills in silence.
	👻 9:44am 12539: Did he just say boogie woogie?
	9:45am rx scabin: @12539 I heard it.
	9:45am Mark Hurst: Hi Joe, hi all!
	9:46am Joe McG: Hey Mark! Looking forward to the show!
	👻 9:47am Brian in UK: It will be bitter out tonight.
	👻 9:47am chresti: Morning Joe and surfies!
	👻 9:48am YETI BOB: Bappi Lahiri and his keytar: upload.wikimedia.org...
	👻 9:48am 12539: (Hey, I've already got a Surface Noise guitar!)
	9:48am Brendan: Like Gadda Da Vida, it would’ve been cool if it he had done Magic carpet ride
	👻 9:48am 12539: (Thanks Joe!)
	9:49am Joe McG: Wow, excellent pic, Yeti Bob!
	👻 9:51am YETI BOB: I love everything about it, the rings, the chains, the curtain, the shades. Just wanted to know more about Bappi Lahiri so I went looking & found this.
	9:54am BillyLundun: Loving this Bappi set! I think the first time I heard his work was on Chalte chalte
	9:56am P-90: From Accordion to Bappi, is this the beginning of an alphabet theme thing?
	👻 9:57am DjLorraine: Yeti Bob i watched Babylon. Great movie.
	👻 9:57am chresti: Aw I missed the accordion.
	👻 9:58am chresti: Maybe cumbia is next, P-90
	👻 9:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Zithers by noon!
	9:59am P-90: If Accordion was “A”, and Bappi is “B”, what could be next? Clarinet? Celesta? Claudia Cardinale 45s from the early 50’s?
	10:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No ! An hour & 1/2 of solid Cuíca...
	10:00am P-90: *early 60’s
	👻 10:00am Webhamster Henry: @P-90 if this were Sheena, it would be Claudine Longet (who just turned 80).
	👻 10:00am DjLorraine: P-90 maybe chuckling
	10:02am Roberto: That wasn't funny at all. I guess you had to be there.
	10:02am BillyLundun: Deeeelllicoouusssss
	10:03am BillyLundun: Mr. Magoo! electric boogalooo
	👻 10:03am yerfriendpaul: This is the greatest!! Jim Backus's insane laugh
	👻 10:03am Webhamster Henry: This is what I call a WFMU segue. Although I was expecting "Goodness Gracious Me"
	10:03am common: So nuts
	10:03am BillyLundun: I found this via napster back in the day
	10:03am holland oats: this rebel without a cause outtake is truly disturbing
	10:03am Rick A: This was Scott Williams' hit list on Wake and Bake last Wednesday. It's a WFMU hit 64 years later.
	10:03am P-90: Bolis, Backus…
	👻 10:03am Hughie Considine: The lascivious laughter of Jim Backus is wrecking my mind (in a good way)
	10:04am Layet Johnson: Morning, all. Hope your week is delicious!
	10:04am Andres: Mr. Magoo! What have you gotten into?
	👻 10:04am yerfriendpaul: Pure insanity
	👻 10:05am Hughie Considine: Auditory tickle torture?
	👻 10:06am queems: oh man this gives me so much anxiety
	10:06am annie: nice anecdote about jim backus: thanksgiving weekend and people are preparing for the parade. jim was staying in a hotel overlooking the street; he woke up and did his stretches and scratching, etc. he got a phone call to his room warning him that he should probably close his drapes.. hehe
	10:06am morphe': Thurston Howell III on something ????
	10:07am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...champagne ...with nitrous oxide bubbles...
	10:07am Andres: Ha Ha Ha by Flipper any moment now.
	👻 10:08am Hughie Considine: Larger than Jim Backus/ it's the cactus
	10:08am Mario Speedwagon: This is the creepiest segment I’ve ever heard on radio
	10:08am Rick A: Laughter really is contagious. These people's fanatical laughter is making me laugh too.
	👻 10:08am Webhamster Henry: We wait for the Okeh snort.
	10:08am Colleen: Love it....for some reason I remember this from an animated short and the laughing people were keeping a neighbor up....
	10:08am Colleen: What a great show Joe... Thanks!!
	👻 10:09am yerfriendpaul: That Okeh laugh recording was one step away from sending me to the looney bin
	10:10am Joe McG: Here's some Louis Prima to reward you for sitting through the Okeh Laughing Record.
	10:10am listener james from westwood: @Colleen—I remember that toon! I find it hilarious that two Prima tracks are now frequent soundtracks of various TikToks. If Louis beamed in from the ether, how would one ever explain it to him?
	10:10am P-90: Prims does get some love these days but is STILL CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED
	10:10am Mike W.: Something something I saw Keely in concert with Sam Butera in the ‘90s and interviewed her before her last NYC show about a decade after
	👻 10:10am yerfriendpaul: Who'da thought that Louis Prima would help ground me back to Earth!
	10:11am jeff: I think you spun at my bar La Loba Cantina in Brooklyn (RIP) once. Or maybe you just showed up to support your fellow WFMU dj that we coerced into playing. Either way, love your show, it’s always a wild ride and makes mondays suck less!
	10:12am Joe McG: @james: Is that right? What cuts are they using? @jeff: Wow, thanks, jeff! I don't think I DJ'd there, so I must have been hanging out.
	10:13am P-90: …thinking about these poor FMU DJs who get coerced into doing all kinds of things…
	10:14am listener james from westwood: @Joe: "Pennies from Heaven" and "Che la Luna" from the wedding in The Godfather.
	10:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...how stoned you reckon Louis & his band were...
	10:17am listener james from westwood: Guys who play Vegas as much as they did shouldn't accept invitations to anywhere out in a desert.
	👻 10:18am Webhamster Henry: Next set we can stay in Vegas for the Rat Pack. www.youtube.com...
	👻 10:18am YETI BOB: Hey DjLorraine, glad you liked the movie!
	👻 10:19am DjLorraine: Yeti Bob saddly too accurate
	10:19am P-90: Prima and his band were like the Zappa and Mothers of Invention of their day. They mixed a lot of humor and crazed energy with their music, managing to “smuggle” a lot of brilliant music to audiences that otherwise might not have been so receptive.
	10:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's a lotta schtick but yeah Musically they always brought it.
	10:25am Jason from Houston: Skiddy de be bop and good morning, radio buddies.
	10:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& where, precisely, is the boundary between Swing & Bop...
	10:26am Listener Baby: Top O’ the morning Joe and gang! Hope all is great everywhere it should be.
	10:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...feel that with Zappa / Mothers - the humor almost too much obscured the virtuosity. Watched a video a 'Classical guy' cold viewed a performance of 'Inca Roads' - & he were suitably impressed...
	10:37am HyperDose: Give it to us, Joe! 🎵
	10:38am Joe McG: The bass on this record is outasite!
	10:39am Jason from Houston: Very fine!
	10:41am Papples: I was gifted this single as a 6 yo. Rocked out to this and Outtaspace on my little record player! Thanks for the mamms
	10:45am Joe McG: @Papples: Nice!
	10:46am Brendan: Assuming the Buffalo Stance
	10:48am common: Really diggin’ this set, joe!
	10:49am Joe McG: @common: I'm glad this scary song about 1984 is not scaring you!
	👻 10:50am DjLorraine: Buffalo stance and giraffe stance are 2 of my favorite stances
	10:50am Rick A: Didn't Spirit accuse Led Zeppelin of plagiarizing Stairway to Heaven from them?
	10:51am common: @joe: i am scared!
	10:52am rx scabin: Thanks for the headstart, Joe McG. Off to work.
	10:52am P-90: I like Marmoset Stance and Wombat Stance
	10:52am Brendan: Bowie, Hendrix, Spirit … man, Orwell had no idea what he started. Or the missed royalties.
	10:52am Lee C: Bob Brainen did a nice deep dive on Spirit late last year, lots of good stuff in there
	10:53am Rick A: Spirit's score for the film Model Shop is great. I think the lead singer appears in the film too.
	10:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <3 JoyDivisions
	10:54am Joe McG: @Rick: I like that film! The whole band is in it for a spell.
	10:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 1983 A Merman I Should Turn To Be - Hendrix the SciFi / Fantasy enthusiast...
	10:57am Brendan: I have no idea what he’s saying but can somebody order a soufflé and a Perrier for me
	10:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...they called Jimi 'Buster' when he was little after Buster Crabbe who played FlashGordon...
	10:57am Joe McG: In case you're wondering, Brassens is telling industry people who want him to air his dirty laundry in public in order to get more popular that they can blow it out their ears (or trumpets, as it were).
	👻 10:57am Brian in UK: Joe, would you by any chance be wearing a beret?
	10:57am SRX: Paris greetings !
	10:57am P-90: Old friend of mine actually used to live in a house in Laurel Canyon with Spirit in the 60’s. Like every member of the band except the one guy who was married and lived nearby. Some fun stories, as one might imagine.
	10:58am Joe McG: @SRX: Bon jour, Paris!
	10:58am steve: good song
	10:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Johnny Echols of Love's B-Day today. Has related he would just drop acid into bandmate Snoopy's cocacola when he felt he was getting too 'uptight'. Those were the days...
	11:01am P-90: …back when being “too uptight”was a disaster to be avoided at all costs
	11:01am G: PG's first solo 45... About leaving Genesis and the rockstar world.
	11:02am P-90: Yes, it’s a song about leaving a successful band to try a solo career
	11:02am Rick A: Yeah, Model Shop is great though I wonder if young people today can identify with the male protagonist's angst. I guess his fear of going to Vietnam resonates. It's clearly the model--pun unintended--for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, given the oil refinery in both Brad Pitt's and Gary Lockwood's front yards.
	11:02am SRX: Hi, how are you USA ?
	👻 11:03am Ken From Hyde Park: "Solisbury Hill" with the rare 7/4 time signature.
	11:03am SRX: Love Solisbury Hill And Strawberry Hill…
	11:04am SRX: Oui bien prononcé !
	11:05am SRX: Exactement :)
	11:07am ?: It's a stretch--he wasn't solo--but Gabriel had cut a single two years earlier. He produced and performed, backing up Charlie Drake: https://www.discogs.com/release/3911893-Charlie-Drake-You-Never-Know
	11:08am listener james from westwood: That show's gonna make Dave Emory cry.
	11:10am Andres: Lots of good reading about Neneh Cherry and Little Solsbury Hill was had because of that set. 'FMU, always edumacational!
	11:11am Joe McG: @?: Thanks for the info! @Andres: Glad to hear! @james: Ha ha ha
	11:21am Cassanndra Tolduso: P-90 U remember the first Spirit song I heard. Was in mid 90's in a cafe during a high school field trip. I was very excited to hear it and made sure I asked the waitress what was the name of the band on the speakers. Hello DJ Surface Noise with Joe McGasko, nice sounds coming from the speakers right now too!
	11:22am Cassanndra Tolduso: Wow all thumbs typing in my car (my (no U) Mid 70's field trip.
	11:23am Joe McG: Hey Cassandra! Careful there in the car!
	11:24am Cassanndra Tolduso: Thanks DJ JoeG. I have to drive two miles for signal (none at home) I listen on my laptop on the side of the road, using my phone for wifi hub. Never while driving.
	11:24am chris_in_space: Wow, this Janis Joplin track makes me wonder how her sound would have adapted to the 1970s. Never heard her so contemporary.
	11:25am Handy Haversack: Great set and show, Joe! Really enjoying it. Have to get out in the sun with the dog (and bring back cat food!). Many thanks! Later on, Surfactants. Stay on top!
	11:25am PigeonsAndRust: Whoa I had to pull over to check the playlist. This is fascinating
	11:25am Cassanndra Tolduso: That Todd Rundgren did the engineering might have something to do with that sound.
	11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wouldn't have guessed Janis & Todd was a thing! A fairly Nazz-like arrangement & all...
	11:28am Cassanndra Tolduso: That sure surprised me too Rev Rabbit. Interesting to hear where he took Janis with his wizardry.
	11:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Todd of course Produced the NY Dolls' debut. Not a total mutual admiration society there - but sure got the job done...
	👻 11:29am queems: i love all versions of this song
	11:30am βrian: I want the Roches to have covered Harvest Moon.
	11:30am annie: queems i've never heard a bad one
	11:30am Rock Ridge Chess Club: Mercy, thatś smooth.
	11:31am Jack: Someone - Joe? - could do an entire 3 hour show of all the artists Todd Rundgren recorded/produced/engineered...
	👻 11:31am queems: @annie i agree!
	11:31am Rick A: Sometimes I think that I should unload most of my CDs and buy nothing but Ace compilations.
	11:32am annie: i'm getting ready to hand over my entire cd collection to an old friend who wants to dj on her local radio
	11:33am annie: i sure do love this song
	11:33am Joe McG: Everytime I hear "Harvest Moon" I'm hearing another song behind it...is it "Walk Right Back" by the Everlys?
	11:34am Rachel Bo Bachel: Brian that would be so good! Great set Joe, just tuning in ❤️🤍💙
	11:35am G: Solsbury, BTW...
	👻 11:36am DjLorraine: That's a nice version of Harvest Moon by the Brothers Comatose and AJ Lee
	11:36am Rachel Bo Bachel: Joe YES was just trying to remember too… and then I was hearing “swinging party” by the replacements and that Frank and Nancy Sinatra song seem musically related too… good for that new sound-Alice’s feature on Wake and Bake!
	11:36am johnk77: nice work selecter blessed to have seen both janis joplin & spirit live in 1969 at separate concerts both in northern ohio
	11:37am Rachel Bo Bachel: *alikes doh
	11:37am Davis: love this set
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I think of all the CDs I bought working & starving @ CD stores - sold back to pay rent ...& today I'd just rip 'em to my external hard drive no drama...
	11:39am Son Of Pantz: This song was meant for the cello, clearly. It's haunting.
	11:40am Cassanndra Tolduso: The People’s Convoy, floating schedule (maybe Ray Epps will lead the convoy- lol) https://thepeoplesconvoy.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Press-Release-Feb-20-FINAL.pdf
	11:40am Rachel Bo Bachel: I thought this must be Arthur Russell. What a totally rad cover of She Moved Through The Fair!
	11:40am Andres: Cassanndra Tolduso @11:24: I’m impressed by the lengths you’ll go to be able to tune into the station!
	11:40am Brendan: That was a lovely version
	11:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Weird. I got notable latency with the playlist ahead of the actual stream...
	11:44am Brendan: Celtic scat
	11:45am βrian: For those who lean Irene, The Drummer Stream is soon to go live: wfmu.org...
	11:47am annie: on that note, i'm switching streams, then. many thanks for the great show this morning! see y'all next week..
	11:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ooo. It's hard to miss IreneT ! But I needs muh Belock. Must remember Archives are an option more than I do...
	11:50am Cassanndra Tolduso: Andres, the chat is my only social interaction besides getting grocery and gas. Sad, I know. lol I listen while I do my internet chores.

	👻 9:10am Webhamster Henry: No autoharps yet, but I can always dream. I was bopping along to this on my melodica, though.
	9:11am Paul in the OC: Good mornin’ cup a Joe & all you noisers! Waiting on the Art Van Damne…wait for it…

	9:16am Handy Haversack: Now that's what I call album art: external-content.duckduckgo.com...
	9:17am Rick A: I just noticed that Art Van Damme exited two months before his 90th birthday, kind of a drag.
	9:18am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Frank Marocco & Mahogany Rush
	9:18am dano59: I like this Caravan too - always loved the Disciples of Soul version.
	9:20am dano59: Handy - that almost looks like one of those tax-scam “fake albums”
	9:20am Handy Haversack: The back cover is pretty amazing too, dan059.
	9:21am Joe McG: Hey folks, welcome to the show!
	9:22am Paul in the OC: Pantz: 16-33-45-78-36-24-34 :D
	9:22am dano59: I think we’re in store for either Lady of Spain or The Whiskey Rabbi
	9:22am P-90: Dom Frontiere catches the mood perfectly. Hi Joe McG.
	👻 9:23am DjLorraine: Maybe i could be a page turner for accordian playing gorillas
	9:23am rx scabin: What a soundtrack to my morning. It makes the idea of work less dreadful.
	👻 9:24am Webhamster Henry: Accordion + Timpani -> winning combo.
	👻 9:24am Webhamster Henry: You should throw in a ringer track from the Harmonicats.
	9:25am rx scabin: Who knew besides Joe McG that the accordion has such curative powers?
	9:25am P-90: The only nonhuman primates I’ve seen play accordion have been chimpanzees, who turn the pages with their tongues as they play. Verrry prehensile, if you dig.
	9:26am Claire from Montclair: Swing!
	9:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...considering that every Rhythm is like an algorithm for Moving Thru Life - Rawk was received as an affront to Swing... The chimpanzee arm architecture is in fact superior for Swinging...
	9:28am Cooh John: Hello Joe. Celebrating the Federal holiday by listening to Surface Noise.
	9:28am Brendan: What a swinging squeezebox set. i ‘m going to customize a car like one of those articulating buses and drive the first Honda Accordian. When I want to sound the horn, I’ll just speed up then pump the brakes.
	👻 9:28am Ken From Hyde Park: Myron Floren's birthday? No, that was November 5.
	9:29am mlsgrrl: A rough morning over here, very appreciative for the accordion. It is a balm for my spiky soul this morning.
	9:30am Cooh John: Did not see you there, DjLorraine. 🙋
	👻 9:31am yerfriendpaul: Loved that first set!
	9:32am joeymargaret: Good morning, Joe McG and all! I tried to learn the accordion but it just didn't take. That was a fun set!
	👻 9:32am LastWhiteRhino: What's the difference between an accordion and an onion? No one cries when you cut up an accordion
	9:33am Handy Haversack: I love this plan, Brendan. Hey, Cooh John, DjLorraine, mlsgrrl!
	9:34am Shredders: What's the difference between a ukulele and a banjolele? Banjoleles burn for longer
	9:35am The Butterman: What did the banjo player get for his birthday? Drool!
	👻 9:36am Brian in UK: Hey Joe, your show coincides with the ending of four days serious storming here.
	9:37am βrian: @BiUK: Is that another term for a pub crawl?
	9:37am Shredders: What do you call 50 accordians at the bottom of the ocean? A good start
	👻 9:38am Brian in UK: βrian, if only.
	9:38am The Butterman: You know, peoples/roommates/ wives hatred for banjo has really made it impossible to improve and develop my banjo skills over the years. Sweet! Bappi! Nice joe!
	👻 9:39am DjLorraine: Brian in UK bar hopping?
	9:40am Handy Haversack: Butterman, have you checked out Muskeg Mudsuck? They've gotten some play on Ken's show and I think Michele's. Good stuff. muskegmudsuck.bandcamp.com...
	9:40am The Oscar: Mornin’! Listening over the airwaves this morning in my NY hotel room, and this is blowing my mind right now.
	9:41am βrian: I mean, that would make meteorological reports so much more interesting.
	👻 9:41am Ken From Hyde Park: Remember when Apu and Manjula used to make out to this hymn?
	9:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bollywood people invented the 'MashUp' 40 (?) years before there was a word for it...
	👻 9:41am tadpoles: Hey Joe....I have to say what I presume is a slice of Bollywood Rock 'n' Roll is great stuff!
	9:42am goyim in the am: Inna Bollywood “Wild Thing”, baby /. Dontcha know that I luh-huv yoo-ooh…
	9:42am The Butterman: I’ll check it out Handy, thanks.
	👻 9:42am Brian in UK: DjLorraine, the pubs over here are closing at a rapid rate these last few years so the options are decreasing. βrian Meteorological reports around the world can be quite bizarre.
	9:43am StringOFperils: @butterman > Same here for piano. In my experience, people like to vocally support the arts, but generally, they're not too keen on individuals practicing those arts anywhere near them.
	9:44am βrian: "Ale force winds" comes to mind ...
	9:44am Polly.: great disco Joe!
	9:44am The Butterman: Stringofpearls, good thing I could develop my artist/painter skills in silence.
	👻 9:44am 12539: Did he just say boogie woogie?
	9:45am rx scabin: @12539 I heard it.
	9:45am Mark Hurst: Hi Joe, hi all!
	9:46am Joe McG: Hey Mark! Looking forward to the show!
	👻 9:47am Brian in UK: It will be bitter out tonight.
	👻 9:47am chresti: Morning Joe and surfies!
	👻 9:48am YETI BOB: Bappi Lahiri and his keytar: upload.wikimedia.org...
	👻 9:48am 12539: (Hey, I've already got a Surface Noise guitar!)
	9:48am Brendan: Like Gadda Da Vida, it would’ve been cool if it he had done Magic carpet ride
	👻 9:48am 12539: (Thanks Joe!)
	9:49am Joe McG: Wow, excellent pic, Yeti Bob!
	👻 9:51am YETI BOB: I love everything about it, the rings, the chains, the curtain, the shades. Just wanted to know more about Bappi Lahiri so I went looking & found this.
	9:54am BillyLundun: Loving this Bappi set! I think the first time I heard his work was on Chalte chalte
	9:56am P-90: From Accordion to Bappi, is this the beginning of an alphabet theme thing?
	👻 9:57am DjLorraine: Yeti Bob i watched Babylon. Great movie.
	👻 9:57am chresti: Aw I missed the accordion.
	👻 9:58am chresti: Maybe cumbia is next, P-90
	👻 9:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Zithers by noon!
	9:59am P-90: If Accordion was “A”, and Bappi is “B”, what could be next? Clarinet? Celesta? Claudia Cardinale 45s from the early 50’s?
	10:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No ! An hour & 1/2 of solid Cuíca...
	10:00am P-90: *early 60’s
	👻 10:00am Webhamster Henry: @P-90 if this were Sheena, it would be Claudine Longet (who just turned 80).
	👻 10:00am DjLorraine: P-90 maybe chuckling
	10:02am Roberto: That wasn't funny at all. I guess you had to be there.
	10:02am BillyLundun: Deeeelllicoouusssss
	10:03am BillyLundun: Mr. Magoo! electric boogalooo
	👻 10:03am yerfriendpaul: This is the greatest!! Jim Backus's insane laugh
	👻 10:03am Webhamster Henry: This is what I call a WFMU segue. Although I was expecting "Goodness Gracious Me"
	10:03am common: So nuts
	10:03am BillyLundun: I found this via napster back in the day
	10:03am holland oats: this rebel without a cause outtake is truly disturbing
	10:03am Rick A: This was Scott Williams' hit list on Wake and Bake last Wednesday. It's a WFMU hit 64 years later.
	10:03am P-90: Bolis, Backus…
	👻 10:03am Hughie Considine: The lascivious laughter of Jim Backus is wrecking my mind (in a good way)
	10:04am Layet Johnson: Morning, all. Hope your week is delicious!
	10:04am Andres: Mr. Magoo! What have you gotten into?
	👻 10:04am yerfriendpaul: Pure insanity
	👻 10:05am Hughie Considine: Auditory tickle torture?
	👻 10:06am queems: oh man this gives me so much anxiety
	10:06am annie: nice anecdote about jim backus: thanksgiving weekend and people are preparing for the parade. jim was staying in a hotel overlooking the street; he woke up and did his stretches and scratching, etc. he got a phone call to his room warning him that he should probably close his drapes.. hehe
	10:06am morphe': Thurston Howell III on something ????
	10:07am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...champagne ...with nitrous oxide bubbles...
	10:07am Andres: Ha Ha Ha by Flipper any moment now.
	👻 10:08am Hughie Considine: Larger than Jim Backus/ it's the cactus
	10:08am Mario Speedwagon: This is the creepiest segment I’ve ever heard on radio
	10:08am Rick A: Laughter really is contagious. These people's fanatical laughter is making me laugh too.
	👻 10:08am Webhamster Henry: We wait for the Okeh snort.
	10:08am Colleen: Love it....for some reason I remember this from an animated short and the laughing people were keeping a neighbor up....
	10:08am Colleen: What a great show Joe... Thanks!!
	👻 10:09am yerfriendpaul: That Okeh laugh recording was one step away from sending me to the looney bin
	10:10am Joe McG: Here's some Louis Prima to reward you for sitting through the Okeh Laughing Record.
	10:10am listener james from westwood: @Colleen—I remember that toon! I find it hilarious that two Prima tracks are now frequent soundtracks of various TikToks. If Louis beamed in from the ether, how would one ever explain it to him?
	10:10am P-90: Prims does get some love these days but is STILL CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED
	10:10am Mike W.: Something something I saw Keely in concert with Sam Butera in the ‘90s and interviewed her before her last NYC show about a decade after
	👻 10:10am yerfriendpaul: Who'da thought that Louis Prima would help ground me back to Earth!
	10:11am jeff: I think you spun at my bar La Loba Cantina in Brooklyn (RIP) once. Or maybe you just showed up to support your fellow WFMU dj that we coerced into playing. Either way, love your show, it’s always a wild ride and makes mondays suck less!
	10:12am Joe McG: @james: Is that right? What cuts are they using? @jeff: Wow, thanks, jeff! I don't think I DJ'd there, so I must have been hanging out.
	10:13am P-90: …thinking about these poor FMU DJs who get coerced into doing all kinds of things…
	10:14am listener james from westwood: @Joe: "Pennies from Heaven" and "Che la Luna" from the wedding in The Godfather.
	10:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...how stoned you reckon Louis & his band were...
	10:17am listener james from westwood: Guys who play Vegas as much as they did shouldn't accept invitations to anywhere out in a desert.
	👻 10:18am Webhamster Henry: Next set we can stay in Vegas for the Rat Pack. www.youtube.com...
	👻 10:18am YETI BOB: Hey DjLorraine, glad you liked the movie!
	👻 10:19am DjLorraine: Yeti Bob saddly too accurate
	10:19am P-90: Prima and his band were like the Zappa and Mothers of Invention of their day. They mixed a lot of humor and crazed energy with their music, managing to “smuggle” a lot of brilliant music to audiences that otherwise might not have been so receptive.
	10:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's a lotta schtick but yeah Musically they always brought it.
	10:25am Jason from Houston: Skiddy de be bop and good morning, radio buddies.
	10:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& where, precisely, is the boundary between Swing & Bop...
	10:26am Listener Baby: Top O’ the morning Joe and gang! Hope all is great everywhere it should be.
	10:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...feel that with Zappa / Mothers - the humor almost too much obscured the virtuosity. Watched a video a 'Classical guy' cold viewed a performance of 'Inca Roads' - & he were suitably impressed...
	10:37am HyperDose: Give it to us, Joe! 🎵
	10:38am Joe McG: The bass on this record is outasite!
	10:39am Jason from Houston: Very fine!
	10:41am Papples: I was gifted this single as a 6 yo. Rocked out to this and Outtaspace on my little record player! Thanks for the mamms
	10:45am Joe McG: @Papples: Nice!
	10:46am Brendan: Assuming the Buffalo Stance
	10:48am common: Really diggin’ this set, joe!
	10:49am Joe McG: @common: I'm glad this scary song about 1984 is not scaring you!
	👻 10:50am DjLorraine: Buffalo stance and giraffe stance are 2 of my favorite stances
	10:50am Rick A: Didn't Spirit accuse Led Zeppelin of plagiarizing Stairway to Heaven from them?
	10:51am common: @joe: i am scared!
	10:52am rx scabin: Thanks for the headstart, Joe McG. Off to work.
	10:52am P-90: I like Marmoset Stance and Wombat Stance
	10:52am Brendan: Bowie, Hendrix, Spirit … man, Orwell had no idea what he started. Or the missed royalties.
	10:52am Lee C: Bob Brainen did a nice deep dive on Spirit late last year, lots of good stuff in there
	10:53am Rick A: Spirit's score for the film Model Shop is great. I think the lead singer appears in the film too.
	10:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <3 JoyDivisions
	10:54am Joe McG: @Rick: I like that film! The whole band is in it for a spell.
	10:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 1983 A Merman I Should Turn To Be - Hendrix the SciFi / Fantasy enthusiast...
	10:57am Brendan: I have no idea what he’s saying but can somebody order a soufflé and a Perrier for me
	10:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...they called Jimi 'Buster' when he was little after Buster Crabbe who played FlashGordon...
	10:57am Joe McG: In case you're wondering, Brassens is telling industry people who want him to air his dirty laundry in public in order to get more popular that they can blow it out their ears (or trumpets, as it were).
	👻 10:57am Brian in UK: Joe, would you by any chance be wearing a beret?
	10:57am SRX: Paris greetings !
	10:57am P-90: Old friend of mine actually used to live in a house in Laurel Canyon with Spirit in the 60’s. Like every member of the band except the one guy who was married and lived nearby. Some fun stories, as one might imagine.
	10:58am Joe McG: @SRX: Bon jour, Paris!
	10:58am steve: good song
	10:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Johnny Echols of Love's B-Day today. Has related he would just drop acid into bandmate Snoopy's cocacola when he felt he was getting too 'uptight'. Those were the days...
	11:01am P-90: …back when being “too uptight”was a disaster to be avoided at all costs
	11:01am G: PG's first solo 45... About leaving Genesis and the rockstar world.
	11:02am P-90: Yes, it’s a song about leaving a successful band to try a solo career
	11:02am Rick A: Yeah, Model Shop is great though I wonder if young people today can identify with the male protagonist's angst. I guess his fear of going to Vietnam resonates. It's clearly the model--pun unintended--for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, given the oil refinery in both Brad Pitt's and Gary Lockwood's front yards.
	11:02am SRX: Hi, how are you USA ?
	👻 11:03am Ken From Hyde Park: "Solisbury Hill" with the rare 7/4 time signature.
	11:03am SRX: Love Solisbury Hill And Strawberry Hill…
	11:04am SRX: Oui bien prononcé !
	11:05am SRX: Exactement :)
	11:07am ?: It's a stretch--he wasn't solo--but Gabriel had cut a single two years earlier. He produced and performed, backing up Charlie Drake: https://www.discogs.com/release/3911893-Charlie-Drake-You-Never-Know
	11:08am listener james from westwood: That show's gonna make Dave Emory cry.
	11:10am Andres: Lots of good reading about Neneh Cherry and Little Solsbury Hill was had because of that set. 'FMU, always edumacational!
	11:11am Joe McG: @?: Thanks for the info! @Andres: Glad to hear! @james: Ha ha ha
	11:21am Cassanndra Tolduso: P-90 U remember the first Spirit song I heard. Was in mid 90's in a cafe during a high school field trip. I was very excited to hear it and made sure I asked the waitress what was the name of the band on the speakers. Hello DJ Surface Noise with Joe McGasko, nice sounds coming from the speakers right now too!
	11:22am Cassanndra Tolduso: Wow all thumbs typing in my car (my (no U) Mid 70's field trip.
	11:23am Joe McG: Hey Cassandra! Careful there in the car!
	11:24am Cassanndra Tolduso: Thanks DJ JoeG. I have to drive two miles for signal (none at home) I listen on my laptop on the side of the road, using my phone for wifi hub. Never while driving.
	11:24am chris_in_space: Wow, this Janis Joplin track makes me wonder how her sound would have adapted to the 1970s. Never heard her so contemporary.
	11:25am Handy Haversack: Great set and show, Joe! Really enjoying it. Have to get out in the sun with the dog (and bring back cat food!). Many thanks! Later on, Surfactants. Stay on top!
	11:25am PigeonsAndRust: Whoa I had to pull over to check the playlist. This is fascinating
	11:25am Cassanndra Tolduso: That Todd Rundgren did the engineering might have something to do with that sound.
