Morning hardcore GIF fans!

6:16am Listener Robert:

Couldn't stay asleep, so I was ready, thanks.

6:27am cory:

morning all

6:29am Listener Robert:

When you're dancing to the hot stuff, compliment the band, don't give them the bird. Exit down the hall, head with your dog before it gets too bad outside. When you get back, you might burn yourself on the hot rolls if you just dive into them, and that'd hurt; you don't need a fortune teller to know that.

🚽

6:37am -Ken:

Thanks for the tip, Robert.

6:58am FцFц (:

Morning, Ken, cory, Listener Robert!

I knew it was a matter of time for the disaster-GIFs to reveal themselves to Ken.

"God says I own you! Take this organ!"

10:04am Linda Lee:

10:05am Listener Robert:

Peter Wyngarde was one of the stars of "Department S". I told my friend Damon Lindelof (then a young Hollywood detective show writer) it'd been my favorite detective series; it was before his time. He wound up basing "Lost" largely on a few episodes of "Department S", especially my favorite, "One of Our Aircraft Is Missing", which I'd told him about.

10:05am The Oscar:

When I get this song stuck in my head, the melody inevitably morphs into "Happy Xmas (War is Over)"

11:03am steveo:

has anyone ever seen leo sayer and richard simmons in the same room?

🚽

11:03am Ken From Hyde Park:

This is a bonus track on the Heavy Metal soundtrack CD.

11:03am bk845:

I guess I'm going to have to favorite that now:)

11:03am Linda Lee:

@geo in jc, you must've grown up when the damn thing was on the radio continually. drove me mad.

11:03am Sebastian:

oh I love the Kropotkins

11:03am PMD:

Bummer. Wanted to say Diese Stunde is das Ende der Welt

11:03am berbo:

This is actually on the Echo Thrust split single with Don Felder.

🚽

11:04am Krys O.:

Leo Sayer was on the John Shuttleworth radio show. Quite entertaining.

11:04am zopa:

FцFц (: Я давно потерял шахту

11:04am bk845:

@steveo-Leo Sayer, Richard Simmons, *and* Slim Goodbody are all the same person.

11:04am steveo:

lol @845

11:04am Linda Lee:

@bk845 ~ he's also Janis Ian.

11:05am Sebastian:

FoFo and zopa are colluding!

11:05am Linda Lee:

there's the Night Bird! she was dishy for sure.

11:06am melinda:

@Billy thanks for the info

11:07am steveo:

I have not thought about slim goodbody in a while

11:07am (((Murakami Whywolf):

Linda Lee:
Now the kids wouldn't even know who Jimmy Durante was, damn them all.

11:07am Linda Lee:

no, they would not. to their detriment.

11:08am melinda:

I found out shortly after moving to Maine that Slim Goodbody lives here too, up the coast somewhere.

11:08am steveo:

i was really just going on leo's demeanor in that song, but my subconscious probably remembered how similar they look

11:08am βrian:

What? Everybody nose who Jimmy Durante is!

11:09am berbo:

So, Slim Goodbody == Stephen King?

11:09am slawooy:

This is completely ridiculous now

11:09am melinda:

haha

11:09am steveo:

i know you mean the conversation, because this song is fantastic

11:09am Linda Lee:

steveo, ask your little one who Jimmy Durante is.

11:09am bk845:

@melinda-I just learned that Slim Goodbody lives in the same town my parents do...Small world!

11:09am The Oscar:

@Linda Lee @Murakami They might not know who he is, but I feel like enough cartoon voice actors still cop his style that they could probably impersonate him. See also: Peter Lorre, Edward G. Robinson.

11:10am queems:

love this one

11:10am zopa:

@ βrian: ah cha cha!

11:10am FцFц (:

zopa,

Babuska zakat chto normaliek malchikey net edit tok mnogo kanfet. If that makes sense.

11:10am steveo:

no idea, of course (is he a youtube star?)

11:10am Cecile:

Another request:
www.youtube.com...

11:10am queems:

YESSSS

11:10am Jersey Cowboy:

Uhm... Gotta Love This!!!

11:10am melinda:

I'm sure Slim goes around totally unrecognized outside of the skintight anatomy suit.

11:11am Linda Lee:

ah but the visuals! the harassment makes no sense if you don't know the visuals.

11:11am (((Murakami Whywolf):

Uh, I was a very horny straight, male, teen in 1975 and I found Alison Steele's act _hilarious_ rather than lust-o-genic. The moment it's obvious someone is _trying_ to induce a feeling in me….

11:11am melinda:

@bk that's cool!

11:12am steveo:

just showed him some ha cha chas -- not a clue

11:12am Linda Lee:

that was an act? :-D

11:13am Cecile:

They placed 5th that year!

11:13am The Oscar:

"Drop It Like It's Hot" is one of those songs that goes with everything. I've heard equally good mashups with "C'Mon Everybody" and the theme from Kirby's Dreamland.

11:13am Linda Lee:

wonder if he'd find him funny, steveo. does the humor translate?

11:14am KERK:

His Young at Heart is a gem

11:14am Linda Lee:

is it too vaudeville for today's youth?

11:14am zopa:

FцFц (: Många godisar faktiskt!

11:15am steveo:

coincidentally, we should be watching price is right now, since 11 am + sick day = price is right. thanks for the gif, i think that counts

11:15am Mandy:

Ken is a nice dude, with some nice dreams. Do you see his ice cubes and his ice creams?

11:15am Cecile:

I would also check out "Irlande Douze Pointe".
I guess there is a rich tradition of joke acts at Eurovision.

11:15am steveo:

linda -- we'll watch some later. i'm not sure durante was ever funny to me, and i'm 47.

11:15am Carlyle Marc:

@The Oscar Good one! How bout Buddhist Priest, Nudist Priest, Rudest Priest... Fudge Puppy

11:16am BnowB:

Snoopelin for life ;)

11:16am Mandy:

@Oscar, I love the Thomas the Tank Engine theme best.

11:17am Cecile:

HOW I WROTE ELASTIC MAN.

11:17am PMD:

@linda Lee - you would just be a deaf Pavlov dog

11:17am Ajay:

god bless The Fall

11:17am Linda Lee:

thanks for the first damn earworm of 2018, Ken. :-l

11:17am Jersey Cowboy:

Nice - I am totally Wired!

11:17am (((Murakami Whywolf):

The Oscar:
Jesus, the first time I heard Peter Lorre's actual voice…everybody does a {second+}-generation knockoff of Mel Blanc's Lorre.

Right before I kill Hitler and get erased thereby, I'm first going to hear Lorre create the rôle of Mr Peachum im „Dreigroschenoper“. Oh, and I'll keep that white kid from believing he inspired Chuck Berry.

11:18am Yvang:

I want to read Elastic Man.

11:18am Sebastian:

Ich habe geträumt ich wäre Pizza essen mit Mark E. Smith

11:18am Linda Lee:

@steveo ~ i don't think he was funny to me either. but the voice, the cadence, the tone, the vibe were fascinating. & the snoot was legend.

11:21am queems:

sounds like a high school band teacher

11:22am Cecile:

I think he was a warm reminder of vaudeville for people who were old enough to remember it, like my in-laws and grandparents.

11:22am Mark S:

they really give proper credit to the Monkey Chant

11:22am steveo:

yeah, linda, that sounds about right -- i knew when I was a kid that he was iconic (also thanks @11:01, i missed that before) it's the kid's turn on the computer so gtg ttyl radio is on

11:23am Okasa:

Sounds like every drum corps snare line riding on a bus.

11:23am (((Murakami Whywolf):

Sebastian:
War es eine Großewurst-Pizza?

11:24am Cecile:

Schweinmusik fur Saukalt

11:24am Linda Lee:

yay!! PIG BAG!!

11:24am Cecile:

I think this was the city song of Ann Arbor for awhile.

11:24am Sebastian:

inappropriate, Murakami!

11:25am Linda Lee:

ran the grooves out of this one back when. love it.

11:25am listener Rey:

super busy today at work but logged in just to clicky star PigBag

11:25am Stevel:

Okasa: I dig it.

11:25am BnowB:

Love marching band vibes :)

11:26am Linda Lee:

hey BnowB! :-)

🚽

11:26am -Ken:

Cecile, it was when I was there too.. mustve lasted a Looong time.

11:27am queems:

turns out i’m a big pigbag fan

11:27am Mark R:

Wait, Ann Arbor had a city song? On what occasions was it played?

11:27am Linda Lee:

needed this, Ken. thanks.

11:27am Cecile:

I was there when you were. I just wasn't in school or at WCBN yet. I probably heard you play it.

11:27am (Murakami Whywolf))):

I think Durante was respected/derided by other entertainers for surviving without much of an act—real derision, real respect. (I've encountered the same from programmers with greater talent and much worse patter.)

11:27am melinda:

I dig the Pigbag, too, nice use of marching band sound

11:28am Cecile:

on the radio, before shows, and out of 3 out of 5 car windows.

11:28am (((Murakami Whywolf):

Sebastian:
Slash, slash, comma zero, comma zero, slash.

11:29am Carlyle Marc:

Iv'e heard if your in the same room with Pete Townshend oxygen can become scarce, do to the intake of his schnoz.

11:29am KERK:

Makes me think of What Cheer Brigade - Malaguena

11:30am FцFц (:

Murakami,

I wonder who played the role of Justin from Big Sausage Pizza fame. Sebastian oder Mark E Smith? ;)

11:30am Dan_In_Baltimore:

OMG - are you looking through my CDs?

11:30am Lixiviated Life:

Last time I heard Pigbag it was 1980 something and I was tuned into WNYU fm

11:30am jess:

of course buffering occurs

11:31am Linda Lee:

Durante was a bit of a whole unique brand ~ while performer-as-brand wasn't quite conscious on our part yet.

11:31am Ramon hates Ramon:

Excellent. 80’s music give me lots of comfort, even though this song gets overplayed sometimez.

11:32am Linda Lee:

there's my dishy childhood crush Julie Newmar!

11:32am timothy:

Srating my book... Grandfather and the ghost train.. a story about the discovery of extra sensory perception thru multimedia art. not a super hero film about science and destruction

🚽

11:33am -Ken:

Ramon, don't hate Ramon!

11:34am Okasa:

Just curious, any other Ken listeners march drum corps?

11:34am FцFц (:

I am one of those kids who doesn't know who Jimmy Durante is. Is the guy from Duran Duran? That's actually my best guess.

11:34am Carlyle Marc:

Drooling... Julie Newmar!!

11:34am Mark R:

you mean like wcbn Cecile?

11:35am dale:

i think that julie is from the monkees episode where ALL the boys fell in love with her. imagine the hilarity!

11:35am Cecile:

yup, Mark

11:36am Mark R:

Please tell me she didn't pick Davy!

11:36am BronwynB:

@dale: i love that episode

11:36am Okasa:

I was more partial to Yvonne Craig...

11:36am JFR:

oh what a ride

11:37am Ramon hates Ramon:

LoL Tryin’

11:37am dale:

GREAT concept - durante durante - duran duran songs sung in the style of the great schnozzola!

11:37am Mark R:

That's Batgirl, Okasa? Yes, she was easy on the eyes, as well. Something about Catwoman's wickedness, though...

11:38am Mark S:

now we just need "Nag,nag,nag" by

11:38am Carlyle Marc:

@ dale- She was also Cat Woman in the tv Batman series

11:38am Mark S:

Cabaret Voltaire

11:39am dale:

here's the whole monkees episode - www.youtube.com...

11:39am Okasa:

Yeah, Batgirl vs Catwoman. I guess it is sort of a Ginger vs. Mary Ann thing.

11:39am BnowB:

stoned pig bag marching band hits in the snow

11:40am johnforz:

impLOG! Legendary record and all around cool dude Donny!

11:41am Okasa:

There were 3 woman who played Catwoman in the old Batman TV show. Julie Newmar, Eartha Kitt, and Lee Meriwether.

11:41am BronwynB:

@Mark: she picked some dude named freddy

11:42am KERK:

Eartha Kitt too?

🚽

11:42am Ken From Hyde Park:

Good time for something from Voivod and Denis "Piggy" D'Amour.

11:43am dale:

look for julie as stupefying jones in lil abner. kapow!

11:44am Mark R:

Well, as great as Eartha Kitt is just generally, to me, Julie Newmar is the only true Catwoman. I can be very rigid about these things.

11:44am berbo:

Or the Rhythm Pigs.

🚽

11:44am geo in jc:

@dale thanks I'll be looping that Monkees episode all day

11:45am Okasa:

@Mark R - Yeah, when I think of Catwoman, it is Julie Newmar that springs to mind.

You cheer me up Ken. Thanx Dog for Wed mornings. BTW, anyone here in Philadelphia during the 80s? Anyone know Revival, the club?

11:51am dale:
