Familiar & forgotten gems from 50-plus years of music on the darker side, shoegaze, synthpop, goth, psychedelia, darkwave, with unapologetic detours into 70s pop. In a dark night of the soul, it's always 3 o'clock in the morning.

Great stuff. Soundtrack to our first rainy coldish overcast barfy day in a while :)
Avatar 🦇 4:51am
Julie:

Rainy coldish overcast? Sounds perfect!
  4:53am
meghan:

Julie you forgot the most important adjective- barfy
Avatar 🦇 4:54am
Julie:

barfy for some, soothing for others :D
  4:56am
Andy in Berlin:

I thought you wrote "Barfly" and I couldn't understand it
  4:59am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

I figured out why Pop Chips are healthier than other chips: you can't get the bag open.
  5:00am
meghan:

Ha Andy, that was what the IPhone wanted me to write instead of barfy. Now it's Barry! Ha!!!
  5:02am
meghan:

I promise we won't have a hurricane Clay moment!
Avatar 🦇 5:06am

HAHA Hurricane Clay

I was typing something in my phone recently and it wanted to change it to Frangry. I find that quite interesting.
  5:09am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

Greetings Matt!
  5:11am
Matt from Springfield:

"France? Don't you mean Frangry?"
Tuned in just in time to hear "Oomingmak" and Julie's voice. A superfine way to wake up!

Hey BGZ!
  5:15am
Matt from Springfield:

This one is great--you always find these old, obscure Elton songs I've never heard of before!

He has a million. Literally. A million.

Matt from Springfield:

Ahhh, Marissa Nadler. NEW!
  5:30am
Matt from Springfield:

Looking at the date above and hearing Marissa reminded me of something--so I checked, and it was THIS DAY last year you played Marissa's live set here!

So Happy Setaversary!

love "Empty Sky"!
does anyone else remember Telly Sevalas "doing" a version of Paul Williams' "You're Nice To Be Around" on one of those 1970s variety shows??? or was it a different song? (i seem to recall that the song that Telly "sang" was supposed to be about a hooker -- ???)
  5:33am
Matt from Springfield:

"Neutron Bomb"!
  5:33am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

Therese closed her show this week with some ONJ.
  5:34am
Matt from Springfield:

Yay! Julie-riffic set here!
  5:34am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

@slugluv: If I recall correctly Telly released one or two albums. I'll check on it.
  5:35am
Matt from Springfield:

And hello slugluv!

Good idea BGZ, thanks. And yes, SAME date! (Tuesday+leap day adjusted into today)

That was indeed a great set, a great show in general!
  5:39am

wow, THANK YOU!
hello everyone!
been listening all night, just have not commented yet :)
  5:40am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

Telly Savalas released a few albums: http://www.discogs.com/artist/Telly+Savalas
Avatar 🦇 5:41am
Julie:

Marissa played on this dark rainy day, it was so perfect
  5:41am
Matt from Springfield:

The world's best in toy piano + vocals!
"Start with Goodbye Stop with Hello" -- sounds like a kids song title!
  5:43am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

"O You Sinners!" sounds like the title of a collection of Baptist hymns.
  5:45am
fred von helsing:

I think you should change the name of the show to "It Was a Dark and Stormy Night"
  5:47am
fred von helsing:

It certainly sounds better than "Countdown to UTP" :-P
  5:47am
Matt from Springfield:

"...of the Soul", of course :)

Guessed this was Laura N. by the piano intro!
Avatar 🦇 5:47am
Julie:

The phrase always make me think of Snoopy. He was in front of a typewriter and beginning with that line
  5:48am
Gary:

Morning, Jules
  5:48am
Matt from Springfield:

@FVH: That's the kind of thing Clay Pigeon would suggest as a title!
"Countdown, to UTP! Beginning of the T-M-P! The Thursday Morning Package!" :D

Morning, Gary. Just in time for the Captain song
  5:49am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

You should do a Batman-themed show and change the name to Dark Knight of the Soul. :D
Avatar 🦇 5:49am
Julie:

It is all merely a lead-in to the Clay/Fabio crossover moment/minute/hour

She was not always before me! So definitely not lead in to UTP..... I think Julie's title is perfect!
  5:52am
Robin:

Sadly I have no soul. Woe is I.
  5:52am
Matt from Springfield:

Cosmic Wheels are turnin'!

I should also mention that I received your premium "Living In The Dark"! Strange Advance and Solemn Novena are kind of New Wave-ish, and the unusual band name "V-Sor, X" is actually very good! As was Neither Neither World.
Avatar 🦇 5:52am
Julie:

thanks for listening you guys!!
  5:53am
Matt from Springfield:

But that was produced before The Birthday Massacre became your theme, so that "In The Dark" needs to be issued next time!

@Meghan: Agree, we're just having a little playlist fun!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:54am
Meghan:

She could be dark night of sole.... but then you would have to ask if it's fish or shoes....

Thank YOU, cruise director of the Soul! Guiding us through the expected and unexpected as we transition from darkness to light...

Such a gorgeous Nyro track, that one. Echoed beautifully throughout my mostly empty apartment. I'm sure the neighbors enjoyed this entire show as much as I did. Thank you Julie!
