Clay Pigeon's avatar View Clay Pigeon's profile Favoriting

Street interviews, listener call-ins, vinyl gluttery, sporadic normalcy, original floperas and fiktion, blatant talking over songs, politix, tenderness, and a vague undercurrent of angst. Right up your alley!

  This show features a guest appearance from WFMU's Dave The Spazz! Fabio sticks around, too, and we all visit about this and that for an hour. Dave brings along some records, and the episode starts with ...
Apex  Bangin'   Favoriting Marine Parade  1999  12"  Song at beginning and end of show.   
The Prisonaires  Walking in the Rain   Favoriting Sun  1953  45  Dave's 50's song. I started the record too soon during Dave's introduction. Nerves.   
Rosie and the Originals  Angel Baby   Favoriting Highland  1960  45  Dave's 60's song. Great!   
R. Dean Taylor  Indiana Wants Me   Favoriting Rare Earth  1970  45  Dave's 70's song. Love this truly.   
  Thanks for listening! Always remember.

7. August 31, 1969:
Fearing Upsala College takeover and feeling general disgust with demise of counterculture, Vin Scelsa signs off as WFMU staff shuts down station. Upsala keeps station dark for ten months. Lou D'Antonio keeps Freeform flame burning when station resumes broadcasts.

Dave's 80's shows on WPKN in Bridgeport CT were legendary. Sometimes I'd go to bed listening, wake up in the morning, and find him still on the air. He used to play my old hardcore punk band sometimes, and our cut would be sandwiched between post-'68 comeback Elvis and Connie Francis or Don Ho or somesuch... Wonderful radio!

Favorite moment was right after the end of the marathon (Maybe '07? Maybe '05?) anyway Rix was the first show on after the marathon signed off. He started with Monk's "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes". Just perfect.

I like to think I took the last pledge of that last Springdale marathon (I was in the phone room). After the goal was made and everyone was celebrating the phone was ringing so I picked up and took the pledge :)

(I realize that it's likely that phone likely rang again later but I'm sticking with my memory) :)

Hey, that was my Dad's 22nd birthday! AND, he was working at a movie theater the summer "Jaws" came out! When I was 6, he told me about it and first explained the concept of the movie to me; how people were scared of sharks, scared of swimming in the ocean...and how people were so scared watching it they threw up in the theater, and he had to clean it up! Good times in '75 :)
