12:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

12:09pm Cecile:

damn, the woggles always sound tight.

12:10pm Tom from Detroit:

The Peoples Champ knocking it out of the park! Something to Believe In!!!

12:11pm Cecile:

US BONDS!

12:11pm Tom from Detroit:

Excellent!!!

12:11pm Cecile:

I love US and every cover of him.

12:12pm Tom from Detroit:

Funny Cecile, that was my request: US or any cover of him!!!

12:13pm Cecile:

awesome

12:15pm Sissophonic Cheryl:

I need a seven day weekend....go Joe!

12:19pm Cecile:

this is awesome

12:19pm KP:

Hello, Joe

12:21pm Claw!:

Awww, snap!

12:21pm Cecile:

This is pretty great. Michael Yonkers was talking to me about that the other day.

12:23pm Sean B.:

These new surf tracks are somethin' Joe!.

12:24pm Cecile:

Surf is the little black dress of rock 'n' roll

12:24pm Sean B.:

And that Sloths track was killer man...killer.

12:27pm Richard from Venezuela:

Amazing starts.

12:27pm Cecile:

My first skating show, at age 12, we were dressed up like pink elephants and skated to Baby Elephant Walk.

12:28pm Tom from Detroit:

God I long for the halcyon days of pink elephant drug references. Its all gone now.

12:28pm Claw!:

omg, Cecile. So friggin cute.

12:29pm Cecile:

it kind of wasn't. We were the advanced beginners and were all gawky pre-teens with spindly legs. It was more funny than cute.

12:30pm Claw!:

Whoo - I need some caffeine up in dis. It's too early to feel this faded at work.

12:31pm Claw!:

Yeah, I guess 12-year-olds aren't that cute, come to think of it. I was imagining small kids. I definitely need that coffee. Back in two shakes.

12:32pm Cecile:

it would have been amazing if it was 5 year olds.

12:32pm Tom from Detroit:

Hey I know, lets fly all the way back to JC to see the Cobras.

12:33pm Tom from Detroit:

Hey I know, lets fly all the way back to JC to see the Cobras.

12:34pm Toddophonic:

Bloods Band rule! Great cut!

12:35pm Claw!:

Yeah, that's closer to what I was imagining, C.

12:35pm Claw!:

Now I'm ready.

12:35pm Cheri Pi:

sounds like "Don't let him come back" in parts

12:42pm Sean B.:

@Joe These guys are signed to burger and I have been trying to turn people on to them because they are a great band...;Right up this alley for sure man...when you get a chance after the show= massenger.bandcamp.com...

12:44pm Michael K.:

Hey JOE!!
Great to get a chance to hear you live again! Been keeping up with the archives tho' Sounding great as usual ,I love Warm Soda!

12:46pm Joe B:

hey MK! great to hear from you!

thanks Sean will check it out later today

12:47pm Sean B.:

@Joe ONLY because I care for your ears as you do ours!.

12:48pm paula pc:

very sweet

12:55pm Toddophonic:

Sticky Fingers reissue out tomorrow. Unfortunately, unlike Some Girls, I don't think there will be any Freddy Cannon covers on it.

1:00pm efd:

2012 is correct!

p.s. Hi Joe!

1:01pm Mark:

Cool story in the Times today about all the logistical hang-ups with that cover, Todd. The zipper damaged the vinyl when the albums were stacked--they figured out if they pulled the zipper down a little, it would rest on the center label part of the record and not dent the vinyl. So they had people at the end of the assembly line unzipping.

1:03pm Toddophonic:

@Mark: There is also a hilarious letter Jagger wrote to Warhol about it on the wall in the Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh.

1:09pm Cecile:

this guy makes me feel how I feel about Shoes sometimes. I love the music, but the lyrics hint that he might be the worst boyfriend ever.

1:10pm thegidge:

song of the summer? don't go falling in love!

1:10pm Joe B:

I'll ask him that thursday!

1:10pm Joe B:

it was the song of summer of 2012!

1:11pm thegidge:

NY Post did a fun story on who's crotch is it anyway (but it remains a mystery).

1:12pm Cecile:

I'd like to see that gameshow:
"whose crotch is it anyway?"

1:12pm thegidge:

Would like your submissions for summer 2015.

1:13pm Bluesman:

Hi Joe. Nice after lunch (burp) pick me up set.

1:13pm FernandoBelmondo:

Today's show is rocking good!

The new summer schedule seems great but the best thing is TCM staying at my day off work.

1:14pm Cecile:

this has a nice Thin Lizzy vibe.

1:15pm Joe B:

great call Cecile! as usual!

1:16pm Joe B:

thanks Fernando! Hey Blues!

1:16pm thegidge:

yes, cecile. smoking! i need to acquire some Kurt Baker! best surprise of my monday so far! thanks tcm

1:16pm Mike East:

yeah, totally, his voice and phrasing slips into it every couple bars. Nice one, Cecile.

1:16pm Joe B:

hey Gidge - Day at the Beach by the Atlantic Thrills. can't play it as it has 2 curses but I am working on an edit version

1:20pm Mark:

Todd, I think I've seen that letter--at least, I've seen one that was the original request for an album cover. I never saw one specifically about the trousers, if that's what you mean. And yes, the mystery continues--whose crotch was it, anyway? Some say it was Gerard Malanga, others say Joe Dallesandro. One thing we know for sure: it wasn't Mick's!

1:23pm Todd-o-phonic Todd:

@Mark: NY Post had article on the crotch controversy yesterday...seems like at least 6 people claim it is their crotch!

1:24pm Derek D.:

Thanks a lot, Joe!! Officially Mess CD came out Dec. 31st 2009. It's being reissued on LP this summer on Soundflat Records...

1:25pm JakeGould:

Someone should do a new “Manspreading” version of thr “Sticky Fingers” cover.

👻

1:26pm Jeff from Rahway:

Kurt Baker puts on a FUN live show. He's back from Spain!

1:27pm Joe B:

thanks DD. I'm calling it 2010!

1:27pm Cecile:

these names make me smile.

1:29pm Carmichael:

Heya Joe and rocker types.

1:31pm johnk77:

@joeb nice selecting
@mikeeast i sent u a
business email

1:32pm Cecile:

Joe did you catch the interview with U-Ron Bonds of Really Red on Diane's show? He talked a lot about seeing Texas psych bands back in the day.

1:32pm Toddophonic:

Eve and The Exiles do a great cover of "Starvation"!

1:34pm johnk77:

my texas sources
who were there back in the day
often cite bubble puppy
as most underrated

1:35pm Joe B:

same label John!

cool TOT, I'll have to request it next time I see them!

cecile i did not, will have to go back and check it

1:36pm Joe B:

welcxome to everyone joining in progress! thanks for tuning in and checking in! appreciate it!

1:36pm Cecile:

the whole interview was great. Houston was really the wild west back in the 70s and 80s in some ways.

1:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Bubble Puppy followed the Elevators - as I think most did. (I read 'Eye Mind'...)
- That U-Ron interview was the stuff - loved the 1st-hand accounts of how much Punk was harassed then...

1:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

- this one: wfmu.org...

1:43pm johnk77:

billy gibbons is extremely mellow
and 1 of the coolest humans
i've hung out with
many kinds of rock
have always been both
popular and controversial
strongly condemned locally

1:44pm Claw!:

I really dig this cut

👻

1:51pm Hoboken Jack:

Somebody get Joe a cup o' joe! Still totally rockin' though.

1:55pm Cecile:

wow, this sounds like a Television rehearsal tape. Great stuff.

👻

1:55pm Jeff from Rahway:

A darker, moodier Clean perhaps?

1:56pm Cecile:

that too.

1:56pm Mark:

Like the Stones a lot. I wouldn't name my band that, but...great song.

1:58pm Mark:

All the FMU jocks have been playing this album--who knew Akron was so hip? Bet you can get a house for like $80,000, too.

1:59pm Mark:

Just googled it: median home value in Akron: $60,700. That's so low it's a little off-putting. Maybe it's not so hip, after all. In spite of the fact that the Rubber City Rebels came from there.

1:59pm Claw!:

Fuck yeah, Xetas!

2:23pm pzolla:

Killer set, Joe!

2:25pm KP:

Joe play Play Together Again Again again

👻

2:29pm Jeff from Rahway:

This new Orange Peels record is really growing on me.

2:29pm Sissophonic Cheryl:

This one is beautiful.

👻

2:36pm Jeff from Rahway:

Yeah the Flashing Lights! Fantastic Canadian band! The Super Friendz live!

2:41pm Claw!:

Yeeeeah! Davie!

2:43pm V Priceless:

happy birfday to Davie Allan! Hey Joe and Belockians!

2:49pm Claw!:

Hola, V!

2:51pm Bluesman:

Joe, thanks for doing such a great show today! Got me through an otherwise lousy work day.

2:51pm johnk77:

on this date in 1969
brian jones leaves the stones

2:51pm V Priceless:

Heya Claw! Fuzz on, Davie!

2:54pm common:

vp, claw! all!

2:54pm Claw!:

Yo, common!

2:58pm V Priceless:

Hey common!

Thanks Joe!

2:59pm Kurt Gottschalk:

Thanks V Priceless!
