	3:05pm Kurt Gottschalk: hamster henry, i think it's a cover of "without a cover."
	3:05pm Webhamster Henry: I'm working on an all scratch manipulated vinyl disk made out of the blankly grooved B-side of a test pressing.
	3:06pm V Priceless: Scott! Chalky! Peeps! Hey!
	3:06pm r i s k y: Wee let's do this wild thing!
	3:08pm Marcel M: Yo Scott!!
	3:09pm Kurt Gottschalk: oh! up my other alley!
	3:10pm Webhamster Henry: ... my project is related to this one, surfaced by People Like Us: vimeo.com...
	3:10pm r i s k y: Ow yeah! Ow ow yeah ohh yeah
	3:11pm Carmichael: Oh good, my wifi is buffering ... :)
	3:11pm Polyus: I was made for loving brews!
	3:11pm V Priceless: Scott - what's the flip of this Kiss rekid?
	3:12pm Scott Williams: hey everyone! so glad to have you here - gonna be a little scarce on the comments today, this is some athletic radio action! Oh, hey Kurt, I've gotta little more of your alley I think
	3:12pm P-90: Some folks got a lot of alleys things can go up...
	3:13pm Greg from ZONE 5: It's the Dave The Spazz Workout Plan. Great cardio.
	3:13pm Scott Williams: the flip is an Ace tune, "Hard Times"
	3:14pm V Priceless: ooh..that's a funny good Ace tune!
	3:14pm Kurt Gottschalk: so many alleys, most of them dark. thanks, scott.
	3:15pm Carmichael: More of the Donnas, always a good thing.
	3:16pm Cecile: Ah, I remember doing the alligator to this back in the day
	3:16pm Cheyenne: oooEEEEEhoooo
	3:17pm Mark: OK clearly all the DJs had a meeting and said, "Let's all play the Donnas!"
	3:17pm Greg from ZONE 5: I was just gonna say that, Cheyenne!
	3:18pm Cheyenne: Great minds oooEEEEEhoooo alike, Mr ZONE5
	3:18pm V Priceless: speaking of Ace....cool Donnas cover of 'Speeding...'
	3:20pm rw: Are they singing, "Don't bring me down Bruce"?
	3:20pm Barrie_: This ELO sounds totally hammered. Which is what it should be, because it's AWESOME.
	3:23pm Chris from DC: Yay, Colin Newman.
	3:23pm Scott Williams: oh hey also, folks... Singles Going Steady week is also that reminder that October is almost over, which means our SILENT FUNDRAISER is almost over, which means please toss FMU a few more clams if you can. would love to see my total get into the 80% range today. Thank you!
	3:24pm Cheyenne: We need clams!
	3:24pm Scott Williams: I Want More (Clams)
	3:24pm Mark: That was always the theory rw. Nobody knows for sure.
	3:25pm P-90: rw: The story goes that it's a nonsense syllable :"groose!" but after everybody and his sister thought it was "Bruce", the band changed it and started singing it that way in performances. If you believe Jeff Lynne.
	3:29pm Dean: But "groose" is not nonsense. It means "to shiver," as in a fit.
	3:30pm Mark: Doesn't really make sense in the context of the song, though, does it, Dean? (Not to over-analyze an ELO song, which I think I just did!)
	3:32pm Dean: I'm with you Mark, in over-analysis-land, that is. First verse: You got me runnin' goin' out of my mind, You got me thinkin' that I'm wastin' my time. Don't bring me down, no no no no no, I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor Don't bring me down. Sounds like a fit to me!
	3:33pm P-90: Actually, per Lynne, it's an Australianism derived from "gross", as in "unpleasant and undesirable." Apparently like being "let down," by Bruce or whomever...
	3:34pm Cecile: Jeff Lynne, call in and tell us the rest of the story
	3:35pm Mark: We know you're listening, Jeff, so don't even...
	3:35pm Webhamster Henry: If you ARE listening, Jeff, how about a pledge?
	3:36pm Dean: I'm just grateful ELO didn't cover Mairzy Doats.
	3:36pm Nervy: I thought it was "truce." Like, call a truce and don't hassle me any longer.
	3:36pm Mark: Yeah Jeff, nothing unreasonable, just like a million dollars.
	3:37pm V Priceless: Leland Palmer owns Mairzy Doats, Dean.
	3:37pm Mark: $1 million would almost reach Scott's goal for this week. Make him a hero!
	3:38pm Dean: Then Leland Palmer should pledge, too.
	3:38pm drewo: This one belongs in the 'WFMU Greatest Hits' collection.
	3:39pm Mark: Come on, Jeff, Scott went out to his garage and brought in his ELO album. Don't be an ingrate!
	3:40pm thedunkel: OH HELL YES - THE NATIVE HIPSTERS!!!
	3:41pm Scott Williams: WFMU needs more (Inflatable Boy) Clams!
	🧩 3:41pm ChrisVB: tHAT ALMOST MADE ME HOMICIDAL
	3:42pm Cheyenne: Clams Clams Clams!
	3:44pm Kurt Gottschalk: wow, haven't heard this clams track in a good while. nice.
	3:44pm Cecile: Starbuck!
	🧩 3:44pm Matt from Springfield: Yeah, I'm sorry... WOOOOOOOOO! Great choice! Howdy Scott and peeps!
	🧩 3:44pm Matt from Springfield: Singles!
	3:46pm common: nice! hey scott and all!
	3:46pm P-90: Matt rears his "head" for some singles! Gonna be around for Goddamned Dave later?
	🧩 3:46pm Matt from Springfield: Xylophone!
	3:46pm Polyus: Dig that amazing solo!
	🧩 3:47pm Matt from Springfield: Or since we have the Radio Alphabet book now, I suppose I should call it: "wood pile"! Hey P-90! I will be around tonight, Goddamn willing!
	3:52pm Kurt Gottschalk: aw, tanx
	3:53pm JakeGould: Clams.
	🧩 3:55pm Matt from Springfield: Hippy soul groove!
	3:56pm ?: wait, who covered whom?
	3:57pm Scott Williams: Donnas covered Ace Frehley
	3:59pm Kurt Gottschalk: ooooooooooooooooooh
	🧩 3:59pm Matt from Springfield: Wow, what a "Kaw Liga" cover! When is this from?
	3:59pm Webhamster Henry: The Residents are residing in the residence.
	3:59pm Kurt Gottschalk: bands that show their faces are lame
	4:00pm Scott Williams: and this Residents is covering Hank via Michael Jackson!
	4:00pm Scott Williams: Kurt knows of what he speaks!
	4:01pm drewo: I remember when the Residents were briefly the Beatles. Or was that Klaatu?
	4:01pm P-90: Klaatu.
	4:03pm Polyus: Residents singer has been showing more and more of himself over the last couple of tours though.
	4:03pm Scott Williams: @Matt, Residents was '86
	🧩 4:03pm Matt from Springfield: Ah: "The avant-garde band The Residents recorded the song for their 1986 album Stars & Hank Forever: The American Composers Series, replacing its original backing music with the bassline of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean. This was more than likely a reference to Williams' wife, who was named Billie Jean." Interesting connex, there!
	4:04pm Listener Wolfgang: Residents for Presidents!
	🧩 4:04pm Matt from Springfield: Thanks Scott! (was already on it) LEFTY! "Grooveyard" quality vinyl!
	4:05pm Kurt Gottschalk: no eating rice krispies at the console, scott. oh, is that the record?
	4:06pm rw: I want this single. What's on the B side? (Frizzell) Running low on clams, but I'll toss a couple in the clam bucket...
	4:07pm Polyus: No way, centipedes get squashed at my place,
	4:08pm P-90: The Residents documentary "The Theory of Obscurity" will have its NY premiere at IFC Center on 11/14.
	🧩 4:08pm Matt from Springfield: Wooooooooooo! W.L.! G.C.! Thx S.W.!
	4:08pm Scott Williams: Lefty B-side is "Bring Your Sweet Self Back to Me"
	4:08pm Scott Williams: @P-90, can't wait!
	4:08pm P-90: The timeless "Lineman"
	4:08pm common: been lookin for that doc, p-90.
	🧩 4:09pm Matt from Springfield: Timeless, P! But nothing beats this original version.
	4:10pm Jeff: Nice! Did y'all hear Michael's Jimmy Webb show the other day? wfmu.org...
	4:10pm ?: I think I have only ever heard covers of W.L. 'til now. But I think Glenn's is the best!
	4:11pm P-90: That 6-string bass solo plucks my soul every time.
	🧩 4:12pm Matt from Springfield: Fleetwoods! They really advanced the genre of makeout music.
	🧩 4:13pm Matt from Springfield: @Jeff: Wow, he sure weaves a Webb.
	4:15pm Webhamster Henry: What would WFMU be without autoharps?
	4:16pm Mike East: Gaylord played a nice instrumental Wichita Lineman last night...which I sang along with, even though I don't really know the words.
	🧩 4:16pm Matt from Springfield: @W Henry: We'd have to autoharp along at home or work instead, and that's not convenient..
	4:17pm Scott Williams: Big thanks to Mary, Robert, Gary, Bill, Tyson, David and William for the clams!
	4:27pm Cheyenne: I feel a little more clammy now. Thanks guys!
	4:28pm Scott Williams: Keep WFMU Clammy, y'all!
	4:29pm Chris from DC: \m/
	4:29pm Dean: A 45 inch record! Does it spin 7rpm?
	4:29pm Rich in Washington: I almost don't recognize this song at the correct speed anymore. Thanks, Ken's Show!
	🧩 4:30pm Matt from Springfield: Wow, this is the hard "Alice Cooper" Osmonds single I keep hearing about!
	4:31pm Dean: There's a version on the live album, too.
	4:31pm Roberto: Yes, I don't think I've ever heard this at its intended speed before. Still rocks pretty hard.
	4:31pm Rich in Washington: I think I read somewhere that one of the Osmonds was an early purchaser of a Mini Moog.
	4:32pm Scott Williams: @Chris from DC, Joe Belock just came in here and did the same thing! Osmond Power
	🧩 4:33pm Matt from Springfield: Kinks-ish vibe to this Quickspace! I'm liking!
	4:33pm Chris from DC: More than a little bit rock and roll there.
	🧩 4:39pm Matt from Springfield: Oh, Vince Guaraldi wrote this! It sounds like it in his own version, it's got that "Charlie Brown" touch...
	4:41pm P-90: Guaraldi was a big-time genius [imo], died WAY too young or we'd have a lot more
	4:43pm BriJet: Helloooooooooo
	4:43pm Cecile: noooooooooo
	4:43pm common: hell yea, 10cc!
	4:43pm Chris from DC: Yes!
	4:44pm Scott Williams: Hey Lo B!
	🧩 4:44pm Matt from Springfield: Mayuko has a show now? Cool. @P-90: Whoa, didn't realize Vince only made it to 47.
	🧩 4:45pm Matt from Springfield: "I'm Not In Love"! GREAT track to slow down! It's well built, you can twist the sounds around very well.
	4:45pm P-90: .......flaaashhinng baack to hiiigh schoooool- in ssslow mmmotionnn...
	4:45pm Dean: High school history class, back in the old days, we sat in the back of class and abruptly, rudely, and mischievously placed The Osmonds' "One Bad Apple" 45rpm on the classroom turntable set to 33rpm midway through the teacher's lecture. He kinda got a kick out of it.
	4:46pm Dean: We also played an oscillator in the same class at the threshold of audibility. That perturbed the teacher. We were, and to some extent remain, jerky little shits.
	4:47pm common: big boys cry.
	4:47pm P-90: She sounds like she's gained a lot of weight since then
	4:47pm V Priceless: even more brilliant at the wrong speed! Woo!
	4:48pm V Priceless: here comes the edit.......
	🧩 4:49pm Matt from Springfield: @V P: Now now, there are no wrong speeds, at WFMU... ;)
	4:50pm Webhamster Henry: There can be a singles slowing steady day.
	4:51pm V Priceless: @ Matt: I concur completely! Nice, W.hamster!
	🧩 4:56pm Matt from Springfield: That's a great idea Webhamster!
	4:56pm Cheyenne: Pure magick
	4:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...in the pro-'Avalon' camp, but respecting those for whom it is over-played...
	4:59pm Carmichael: Well I played the hell out of this LP when it was released, but that was back then.
	5:00pm V Priceless: I dig 'Avalon' lots...and the tour in Spring of ('82? '83?) - Radio City...great stuff
	🧩 5:03pm Matt from Springfield: Nice! Like Classical, but also like rock, also like electronic. I likes!
	5:04pm Scott Williams: the segue I'm about to make is perfect! Don't get mad!
	5:05pm Carmichael: It's all about the segues, Scott. Go for it!
	5:06pm Chris from DC: Yep, that's a segue.
	5:06pm Emile: Loving this show
	🧩 5:06pm Matt from Springfield: Hmmm...not "perfect" to my tastes, but still...pretty good segue!
	5:07pm Emile: But you guys need a new copy of this VH LP
	5:07pm (Eyepatch) Fox: I'm so sad I missed out on seeing VH tour with David Lee Roth!!!
	5:07pm Carmichael: Waaa--Aaah!
	5:07pm JakeGould: Popping into to say: VAN HALEN!
	5:07pm common: oh yea!
	5:07pm Chris from DC: That would have been an interesting segue to "Jump".
	5:07pm Scott Williams: Thanks Emile! YES, Matt - PERFECT!
	5:07pm Rich in Washington: even though I despise Van Halen on principle, there's something about this song that I am sentimental about. I am not sure why. Maybe some long-forgotten teenage memory.
	5:07pm rw: Scott, this segue is making me mad. I'd like my clams back please.
	5:08pm Scott Williams: MORE CLAMS! I seem to have stalled at the 73% mark - can we get my pledge widget up to 85% by show's end today, folks?
	5:08pm Ted: this a friggin beautiful song!
	5:08pm rw: Okay, I'm kidding. Sounding great.
	5:09pm rw: You can keep the clams.
	5:09pm Scott Williams: haha, no worries rw!
	5:12pm Chris from DC: In a better world this would be a big hit.
	5:13pm Scott Williams: what you said, Chris from DC!
	🧩 5:14pm Matt from Springfield: Holland Oats! Er, Hall & Oates..
	5:14pm Joe B: yes! the tune Hall & Oates performed on SCTV!
	🧩 5:15pm Matt from Springfield: What's going to be your next H&M Hall & Oates song, Scott? :)
	5:15pm common: right joe b! a strange tune indeed.
	5:15pm Carmichael: That's right, Joe. It was Sammy Maudlin. They were plugging their movie Chariots of Eggs.
	5:16pm Scott Williams: excellent factoid, Joe B, thanks! love the way your brain works
	5:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: For a Hard Rawk outfit (of mighty skill & power) - VH had/(s) good melody & Pop sense. Usually, they succombed to frat-glam image dumbness for too long tho'. HoHum.
	5:19pm Cecile: I pretty much liked all their eras except for the Hagar-Cherone years.
	🧩 5:20pm Ike: WFMU's slot says "insert clams here." So, DO IT people! INSERT YOUR CLAMS!
	5:21pm Scott Williams: Heyyy, thank you Matt from Springfield! Matt threw us some clams, y'all! we're at 81% of full clammage, but we can do better!
	5:21pm bennett4senate: oooh Dymaxion 45s, I didn't know that was a thing
	🧩 5:22pm Matt from Springfield: Keep on doin' what yer keepin' on doin' on! Glad to support this programme, Scott!
	🧩 5:24pm Matt from Springfield: (Pledge, and you can get ANOTHER new T-shirt! I chose the Bird-on-Record. And I already have Scott's Nuts For Brazil, so I'm tryin' out Mr. Finewine's premium! Missed something in March? Get it again now!)
	5:25pm Scott Williams: Bennett!! 'sup?
	5:28pm steve: hey everybody. I'm at the beach. Cold empty beaches rule.
	5:28pm Scott Williams: HI STEVE. yes they do, 'specially at night
	🧩 5:33pm Matt from Springfield: DIGGIN' this bed music!
	5:33pm Rich in Washington: Me too! WHat is it?
	5:35pm steve: Scott same question. Does this song actually feature big tape warbles?
	5:38pm Rich in Washington: He's not going to tell us. I can respect that.
	5:38pm Carmichael: Oooh, new bed music. Please to be describing.
	🧩 5:38pm Matt from Springfield: EFD hardcore Nick Gilder territory coming up!
	5:38pm common: man, all the hits scott!
	5:39pm Roberto: I remember as a kid finding it hard to believe this wasn't a woman singing.
	5:40pm Rich in Washington: It's NOT?
	🧩 5:40pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hey, efd will probably want to play this on his show!
	5:40pm Scott Williams: that was a crappy Paul Mauriat project called "Les Satelites" - the song was "Dum Dum". I played it off center, of course. FOR CLAMS!
	5:41pm Carmichael: Nice maneuver, Scott!
	5:41pm ?: methinks these guys have heard Joe Meek
	5:42pm Rich in Washington: Playing 45s off-center was my favorite way to play them as a kid. Or playing a 12" record with a 7 or 10 inch record layed on top to act as a locked groove when the needle came to the edge of it. I think my brother and I destroyed lots of our parent's records that way.
	🧩 5:42pm Matt from Springfield: Off center, just like us! Also diggin' this PLU/Ergo project! Probably have heard this before on another show, but this arrangement rocks!
	5:43pm steve: nice... The off centeredness is what made it truly great.
	5:46pm Scott Williams: check out the totally killer, and fantastic-sounding, Shannon & The Clams live set on Todd O-Todd's show this past weekend!
	🧩 5:46pm Matt from Springfield: What a co-inkidink, Shannon...and the CLAMS!
	5:55pm efd in transit: Dammit, I'm on the train and didn't get my "Nick Gilder Is Being Played On The Radio" alert in time.
	🧩 5:55pm Matt from Springfield: Rosie & the Original 45s! Nice wall o' noise effect, like a radio transmission from beyond!
	5:56pm TDK60: Ah, the crackling hiss.
	5:57pm Scott Williams: HI EVAN!
	🧩 5:58pm Matt from Springfield: "Rosalie "Rosie" Méndez Hamlin was born in Klamath Falls, Oregon, on July 21, 1945, to a Mexican mother and an Anglo-American father. She spent part of her childhood between Anchorage, Alaska and California, before her family moved to National City, California. She started singing with a band at thirteen. She wrote the lyrics for "Angel Baby" as a poem for "my very first boyfriend" when she was 14 years old, still attending Mission Bay High School in San Diego, California."
	5:58pm Scott Williams: Thanks everybody! See you next week
	🧩 6:00pm Matt from Springfield: Thanks Scott! Always a great time! Have a good evening, everyone!

	3:05pm Webhamster Henry: I'm working on an all scratch manipulated vinyl disk made out of the blankly grooved B-side of a test pressing.
	3:06pm V Priceless: Scott! Chalky! Peeps! Hey!
	3:06pm r i s k y: Wee let's do this wild thing!
	3:08pm Marcel M: Yo Scott!!
	3:09pm Kurt Gottschalk: oh! up my other alley!
	3:10pm Webhamster Henry: ... my project is related to this one, surfaced by People Like Us: vimeo.com...
	3:10pm r i s k y: Ow yeah! Ow ow yeah ohh yeah
	3:11pm Carmichael: Oh good, my wifi is buffering ... :)
	3:11pm Polyus: I was made for loving brews!
	3:11pm V Priceless: Scott - what's the flip of this Kiss rekid?
	3:12pm Scott Williams: hey everyone! so glad to have you here - gonna be a little scarce on the comments today, this is some athletic radio action! Oh, hey Kurt, I've gotta little more of your alley I think
	3:12pm P-90: Some folks got a lot of alleys things can go up...
	3:13pm Greg from ZONE 5: It's the Dave The Spazz Workout Plan. Great cardio.
	3:13pm Scott Williams: the flip is an Ace tune, "Hard Times"
	3:14pm V Priceless: ooh..that's a funny good Ace tune!
	3:14pm Kurt Gottschalk: so many alleys, most of them dark. thanks, scott.
	3:15pm Carmichael: More of the Donnas, always a good thing.
	3:16pm Cecile: Ah, I remember doing the alligator to this back in the day
	3:16pm Cheyenne: oooEEEEEhoooo
	3:17pm Mark: OK clearly all the DJs had a meeting and said, "Let's all play the Donnas!"
	3:17pm Greg from ZONE 5: I was just gonna say that, Cheyenne!
	3:18pm Cheyenne: Great minds oooEEEEEhoooo alike, Mr ZONE5
	3:18pm V Priceless: speaking of Ace....cool Donnas cover of 'Speeding...'
	3:20pm rw: Are they singing, "Don't bring me down Bruce"?
	3:20pm Barrie_: This ELO sounds totally hammered. Which is what it should be, because it's AWESOME.
	3:23pm Chris from DC: Yay, Colin Newman.
	3:23pm Scott Williams: oh hey also, folks... Singles Going Steady week is also that reminder that October is almost over, which means our SILENT FUNDRAISER is almost over, which means please toss FMU a few more clams if you can. would love to see my total get into the 80% range today. Thank you!
	3:24pm Cheyenne: We need clams!
	3:24pm Scott Williams: I Want More (Clams)
	3:24pm Mark: That was always the theory rw. Nobody knows for sure.
	3:25pm P-90: rw: The story goes that it's a nonsense syllable :"groose!" but after everybody and his sister thought it was "Bruce", the band changed it and started singing it that way in performances. If you believe Jeff Lynne.
	3:29pm Dean: But "groose" is not nonsense. It means "to shiver," as in a fit.
	3:30pm Mark: Doesn't really make sense in the context of the song, though, does it, Dean? (Not to over-analyze an ELO song, which I think I just did!)
	3:32pm Dean: I'm with you Mark, in over-analysis-land, that is. First verse: You got me runnin' goin' out of my mind, You got me thinkin' that I'm wastin' my time. Don't bring me down, no no no no no, I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor Don't bring me down. Sounds like a fit to me!
	3:33pm P-90: Actually, per Lynne, it's an Australianism derived from "gross", as in "unpleasant and undesirable." Apparently like being "let down," by Bruce or whomever...
	3:34pm Cecile: Jeff Lynne, call in and tell us the rest of the story
	3:35pm Mark: We know you're listening, Jeff, so don't even...
	3:35pm Webhamster Henry: If you ARE listening, Jeff, how about a pledge?
	3:36pm Dean: I'm just grateful ELO didn't cover Mairzy Doats.
	3:36pm Nervy: I thought it was "truce." Like, call a truce and don't hassle me any longer.
	3:36pm Mark: Yeah Jeff, nothing unreasonable, just like a million dollars.
	3:37pm V Priceless: Leland Palmer owns Mairzy Doats, Dean.
	3:37pm Mark: $1 million would almost reach Scott's goal for this week. Make him a hero!
	3:38pm Dean: Then Leland Palmer should pledge, too.
	3:38pm drewo: This one belongs in the 'WFMU Greatest Hits' collection.
	3:39pm Mark: Come on, Jeff, Scott went out to his garage and brought in his ELO album. Don't be an ingrate!
	3:40pm thedunkel: OH HELL YES - THE NATIVE HIPSTERS!!!
	3:41pm Scott Williams: WFMU needs more (Inflatable Boy) Clams!
	🧩 3:41pm ChrisVB: tHAT ALMOST MADE ME HOMICIDAL
	3:42pm Cheyenne: Clams Clams Clams!
	3:44pm Kurt Gottschalk: wow, haven't heard this clams track in a good while. nice.
	3:44pm Cecile: Starbuck!
	🧩 3:44pm Matt from Springfield: Yeah, I'm sorry... WOOOOOOOOO! Great choice! Howdy Scott and peeps!
	🧩 3:44pm Matt from Springfield: Singles!

	🧩 3:46pm Matt from Springfield: Xylophone!
	3:46pm Polyus: Dig that amazing solo!
	🧩 3:47pm Matt from Springfield: Or since we have the Radio Alphabet book now, I suppose I should call it: "wood pile"! Hey P-90! I will be around tonight, Goddamn willing!
	3:52pm Kurt Gottschalk: aw, tanx
	3:53pm JakeGould: Clams.
	🧩 3:55pm Matt from Springfield: Hippy soul groove!
	3:56pm ?: wait, who covered whom?
	3:57pm Scott Williams: Donnas covered Ace Frehley
	3:59pm Kurt Gottschalk: ooooooooooooooooooh
	🧩 3:59pm Matt from Springfield: Wow, what a "Kaw Liga" cover! When is this from?
	3:59pm Webhamster Henry: The Residents are residing in the residence.
	3:59pm Kurt Gottschalk: bands that show their faces are lame
	4:00pm Scott Williams: and this Residents is covering Hank via Michael Jackson!
	4:00pm Scott Williams: Kurt knows of what he speaks!
	4:01pm drewo: I remember when the Residents were briefly the Beatles. Or was that Klaatu?
	4:01pm P-90: Klaatu.
	4:03pm Polyus: Residents singer has been showing more and more of himself over the last couple of tours though.
	4:03pm Scott Williams: @Matt, Residents was '86
	🧩 4:03pm Matt from Springfield: Ah: "The avant-garde band The Residents recorded the song for their 1986 album Stars & Hank Forever: The American Composers Series, replacing its original backing music with the bassline of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean. This was more than likely a reference to Williams' wife, who was named Billie Jean." Interesting connex, there!
	4:04pm Listener Wolfgang: Residents for Presidents!
	🧩 4:04pm Matt from Springfield: Thanks Scott! (was already on it) LEFTY! "Grooveyard" quality vinyl!
	4:05pm Kurt Gottschalk: no eating rice krispies at the console, scott. oh, is that the record?
	4:06pm rw: I want this single. What's on the B side? (Frizzell) Running low on clams, but I'll toss a couple in the clam bucket...
	4:07pm Polyus: No way, centipedes get squashed at my place,
	4:08pm P-90: The Residents documentary "The Theory of Obscurity" will have its NY premiere at IFC Center on 11/14.
	🧩 4:08pm Matt from Springfield: Wooooooooooo! W.L.! G.C.! Thx S.W.!
	4:08pm Scott Williams: Lefty B-side is "Bring Your Sweet Self Back to Me"
	4:08pm Scott Williams: @P-90, can't wait!
	4:08pm P-90: The timeless "Lineman"
	4:08pm common: been lookin for that doc, p-90.
	🧩 4:09pm Matt from Springfield: Timeless, P! But nothing beats this original version.
	4:10pm Jeff: Nice! Did y'all hear Michael's Jimmy Webb show the other day? wfmu.org...
	4:10pm ?: I think I have only ever heard covers of W.L. 'til now. But I think Glenn's is the best!
	4:11pm P-90: That 6-string bass solo plucks my soul every time.
	🧩 4:12pm Matt from Springfield: Fleetwoods! They really advanced the genre of makeout music.
	🧩 4:13pm Matt from Springfield: @Jeff: Wow, he sure weaves a Webb.
	4:15pm Webhamster Henry: What would WFMU be without autoharps?
	4:16pm Mike East: Gaylord played a nice instrumental Wichita Lineman last night...which I sang along with, even though I don't really know the words.
	🧩 4:16pm Matt from Springfield: @W Henry: We'd have to autoharp along at home or work instead, and that's not convenient..
	4:17pm Scott Williams: Big thanks to Mary, Robert, Gary, Bill, Tyson, David and William for the clams!
	4:27pm Cheyenne: I feel a little more clammy now. Thanks guys!
	4:28pm Scott Williams: Keep WFMU Clammy, y'all!
	4:29pm Chris from DC: \m/
	4:29pm Dean: A 45 inch record! Does it spin 7rpm?
	4:29pm Rich in Washington: I almost don't recognize this song at the correct speed anymore. Thanks, Ken's Show!
	🧩 4:30pm Matt from Springfield: Wow, this is the hard "Alice Cooper" Osmonds single I keep hearing about!
	4:31pm Dean: There's a version on the live album, too.
	4:31pm Roberto: Yes, I don't think I've ever heard this at its intended speed before. Still rocks pretty hard.
	4:31pm Rich in Washington: I think I read somewhere that one of the Osmonds was an early purchaser of a Mini Moog.
	4:32pm Scott Williams: @Chris from DC, Joe Belock just came in here and did the same thing! Osmond Power
	🧩 4:33pm Matt from Springfield: Kinks-ish vibe to this Quickspace! I'm liking!
	4:33pm Chris from DC: More than a little bit rock and roll there.
	🧩 4:39pm Matt from Springfield: Oh, Vince Guaraldi wrote this! It sounds like it in his own version, it's got that "Charlie Brown" touch...
	4:41pm P-90: Guaraldi was a big-time genius [imo], died WAY too young or we'd have a lot more
	4:43pm BriJet: Helloooooooooo
	4:43pm Cecile: noooooooooo
	4:43pm common: hell yea, 10cc!
	4:43pm Chris from DC: Yes!
	4:44pm Scott Williams: Hey Lo B!
	🧩 4:44pm Matt from Springfield: Mayuko has a show now? Cool. @P-90: Whoa, didn't realize Vince only made it to 47.
	🧩 4:45pm Matt from Springfield: "I'm Not In Love"! GREAT track to slow down! It's well built, you can twist the sounds around very well.
	4:45pm P-90: .......flaaashhinng baack to hiiigh schoooool- in ssslow mmmotionnn...
	4:45pm Dean: High school history class, back in the old days, we sat in the back of class and abruptly, rudely, and mischievously placed The Osmonds' "One Bad Apple" 45rpm on the classroom turntable set to 33rpm midway through the teacher's lecture. He kinda got a kick out of it.
	4:46pm Dean: We also played an oscillator in the same class at the threshold of audibility. That perturbed the teacher. We were, and to some extent remain, jerky little shits.
	4:47pm common: big boys cry.
	4:47pm P-90: She sounds like she's gained a lot of weight since then
	4:47pm V Priceless: even more brilliant at the wrong speed! Woo!
	4:48pm V Priceless: here comes the edit.......
	🧩 4:49pm Matt from Springfield: @V P: Now now, there are no wrong speeds, at WFMU... ;)
	4:50pm Webhamster Henry: There can be a singles slowing steady day.
	4:51pm V Priceless: @ Matt: I concur completely! Nice, W.hamster!
	🧩 4:56pm Matt from Springfield: That's a great idea Webhamster!
	4:56pm Cheyenne: Pure magick
	4:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...in the pro-'Avalon' camp, but respecting those for whom it is over-played...
	4:59pm Carmichael: Well I played the hell out of this LP when it was released, but that was back then.
	5:00pm V Priceless: I dig 'Avalon' lots...and the tour in Spring of ('82? '83?) - Radio City...great stuff
	🧩 5:03pm Matt from Springfield: Nice! Like Classical, but also like rock, also like electronic. I likes!
	5:04pm Scott Williams: the segue I'm about to make is perfect! Don't get mad!
	5:05pm Carmichael: It's all about the segues, Scott. Go for it!
	5:06pm Chris from DC: Yep, that's a segue.
	5:06pm Emile: Loving this show
	🧩 5:06pm Matt from Springfield: Hmmm...not "perfect" to my tastes, but still...pretty good segue!
	5:07pm Emile: But you guys need a new copy of this VH LP
	5:07pm (Eyepatch) Fox: I'm so sad I missed out on seeing VH tour with David Lee Roth!!!
	5:07pm Carmichael: Waaa--Aaah!
	5:07pm JakeGould: Popping into to say: VAN HALEN!
	5:07pm common: oh yea!
	5:07pm Chris from DC: That would have been an interesting segue to "Jump".
	5:07pm Scott Williams: Thanks Emile! YES, Matt - PERFECT!
	5:07pm Rich in Washington: even though I despise Van Halen on principle, there's something about this song that I am sentimental about. I am not sure why. Maybe some long-forgotten teenage memory.
	5:07pm rw: Scott, this segue is making me mad. I'd like my clams back please.
	5:08pm Scott Williams: MORE CLAMS! I seem to have stalled at the 73% mark - can we get my pledge widget up to 85% by show's end today, folks?
	5:08pm Ted: this a friggin beautiful song!
	5:08pm rw: Okay, I'm kidding. Sounding great.
	5:09pm rw: You can keep the clams.
	5:09pm Scott Williams: haha, no worries rw!
	5:12pm Chris from DC: In a better world this would be a big hit.
	5:13pm Scott Williams: what you said, Chris from DC!
	🧩 5:14pm Matt from Springfield: Holland Oats! Er, Hall & Oates..
	5:14pm Joe B: yes! the tune Hall & Oates performed on SCTV!
	🧩 5:15pm Matt from Springfield: What's going to be your next H&M Hall & Oates song, Scott? :)
	5:15pm common: right joe b! a strange tune indeed.
	5:15pm Carmichael: That's right, Joe. It was Sammy Maudlin. They were plugging their movie Chariots of Eggs.
	5:16pm Scott Williams: excellent factoid, Joe B, thanks! love the way your brain works
	5:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: For a Hard Rawk outfit (of mighty skill & power) - VH had/(s) good melody & Pop sense. Usually, they succombed to frat-glam image dumbness for too long tho'. HoHum.
	5:19pm Cecile: I pretty much liked all their eras except for the Hagar-Cherone years.
	🧩 5:20pm Ike: WFMU's slot says "insert clams here." So, DO IT people! INSERT YOUR CLAMS!
	5:21pm Scott Williams: Heyyy, thank you Matt from Springfield! Matt threw us some clams, y'all! we're at 81% of full clammage, but we can do better!
	5:21pm bennett4senate: oooh Dymaxion 45s, I didn't know that was a thing
	🧩 5:22pm Matt from Springfield: Keep on doin' what yer keepin' on doin' on! Glad to support this programme, Scott!
	🧩 5:24pm Matt from Springfield: (Pledge, and you can get ANOTHER new T-shirt! I chose the Bird-on-Record. And I already have Scott's Nuts For Brazil, so I'm tryin' out Mr. Finewine's premium! Missed something in March? Get it again now!)
	5:25pm Scott Williams: Bennett!! 'sup?
	5:28pm steve: hey everybody. I'm at the beach. Cold empty beaches rule.
	5:28pm Scott Williams: HI STEVE. yes they do, 'specially at night
	🧩 5:33pm Matt from Springfield: DIGGIN' this bed music!
	5:33pm Rich in Washington: Me too! WHat is it?
	5:35pm steve: Scott same question. Does this song actually feature big tape warbles?
	5:38pm Rich in Washington: He's not going to tell us. I can respect that.
	5:38pm Carmichael: Oooh, new bed music. Please to be describing.
	🧩 5:38pm Matt from Springfield: EFD hardcore Nick Gilder territory coming up!
	5:38pm common: man, all the hits scott!
	5:39pm Roberto: I remember as a kid finding it hard to believe this wasn't a woman singing.
	5:40pm Rich in Washington: It's NOT?
	🧩 5:40pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hey, efd will probably want to play this on his show!
	5:40pm Scott Williams: that was a crappy Paul Mauriat project called "Les Satelites" - the song was "Dum Dum". I played it off center, of course. FOR CLAMS!
	5:41pm Carmichael: Nice maneuver, Scott!
	5:41pm ?: methinks these guys have heard Joe Meek
	5:42pm Rich in Washington: Playing 45s off-center was my favorite way to play them as a kid. Or playing a 12" record with a 7 or 10 inch record layed on top to act as a locked groove when the needle came to the edge of it. I think my brother and I destroyed lots of our parent's records that way.
	🧩 5:42pm Matt from Springfield: Off center, just like us! Also diggin' this PLU/Ergo project! Probably have heard this before on another show, but this arrangement rocks!
	5:43pm steve: nice... The off centeredness is what made it truly great.
	5:46pm Scott Williams: check out the totally killer, and fantastic-sounding, Shannon & The Clams live set on Todd O-Todd's show this past weekend!
	🧩 5:46pm Matt from Springfield: What a co-inkidink, Shannon...and the CLAMS!
	5:55pm efd in transit: Dammit, I'm on the train and didn't get my "Nick Gilder Is Being Played On The Radio" alert in time.
	🧩 5:55pm Matt from Springfield: Rosie & the Original 45s! Nice wall o' noise effect, like a radio transmission from beyond!
	5:56pm TDK60: Ah, the crackling hiss.
	5:57pm Scott Williams: HI EVAN!
	🧩 5:58pm Matt from Springfield: "Rosalie "Rosie" Méndez Hamlin was born in Klamath Falls, Oregon, on July 21, 1945, to a Mexican mother and an Anglo-American father. She spent part of her childhood between Anchorage, Alaska and California, before her family moved to National City, California. She started singing with a band at thirteen. She wrote the lyrics for "Angel Baby" as a poem for "my very first boyfriend" when she was 14 years old, still attending Mission Bay High School in San Diego, California."
	5:58pm Scott Williams: Thanks everybody! See you next week
	🧩 6:00pm Matt from Springfield: Thanks Scott! Always a great time! Have a good evening, everyone!
