WFMU: Dark Night of the Soul with Julie: Playlist from July 17, 2020

Listener comments!
	6:21pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: It's going to be a very dark night indeed
	6:54pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: It is a dark night here in Finland - from this you can guess I am not in the north where the sun is up 24/7 until the end of July.
	6:56pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: But hey everyone, I am here early! A pity I forgot the tuesday show completely - a mighty fine show based on the track list. There were plenty of stuff unknown to me as well.
	🦇 6:57pm Julie: Hiya Cha Cha & Larry's Horse
	🦇 7:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Juliethon goes on ! ...loves prefame Boowies...
	🦇 7:01pm Julie: heya Rev Rabbit!
	🦇 7:02pm Julie: tonight's show is full of more familiar fare, if not the songs than at least the artists.
	7:03pm CC: Hi Julie and all of you dark souls out there!!!...
	🦇 7:03pm Julie: Hiya CC!
	7:03pm northguineahills: Bowie and Futurama? Please take my money!
	7:04pm David Dichelle: Hello Julie on this side of the hour!
	7:04pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I just realized I have never seen Love You till Tuesday - I missed it completely when it was aired here in 1989.
	🦇 7:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sheila B was soliciting Girlcentric Summery toons for next week - either pro or anti Summer - & I had nothing & was wishing I was you...
	🦇 7:04pm Julie: hiya David! Hi NGH!
	7:05pm CC: That's exactly the kind of stuff that I like!!!...:)
	7:05pm northguineahills: oh right, WFMU already did.... ;)
	7:06pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: And I still have not listened to Days of Future Passed in its entirety - I have owned the original pressing for only 25 years.
	7:06pm northguineahills: (after I was finally able, my apoligies to Joe McG.)
	7:07pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I guess I say the same thing every time this album is played here.
	🦇 7:07pm Julie: I know it's a cliche but it really is quite wonderful
	7:07pm Sylvia (France-NYC): Good evening, Julie and listeners, I won't listen for long (still on France timezone!), I'll catch up later on the archives, have a good show!!
	7:07pm northguineahills: and I got the quote wrong, it's, "shut up and take my money" (as done by Fry).
	🦇 7:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I think of these guys as a major transition from Psych to Prog. Btw. Not sure they get any such regard - but I see them in with The Beatles & Floyd & the lot...
	🦇 7:10pm Julie: Hey there Sylvia! Yes very late for you, but it's ice to see you for a bit.
	🦇 7:10pm Julie: I had no idea Futurama would end up being so important in my life
	7:11pm CC: Some people claim that they way overproduced themselves???
	7:12pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Latecomer to this party. I mean I LOVE BROADCAST. Love their music, but not when they were around and learned of Trish Keenan's 2011 death only a few weeks ago.
	🦇 7:13pm Julie: I definitely have listened to them more since she passed
	7:13pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @7:11 CC: you mean Moody Blues? Contemporary critics (many of them) apparently hated them for this reason.
	🦇 7:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I don't think of Moodys as overproduced cause they sound right to me. If anything but raw Rawk is overproduced to someone - then nothing can be done.
	7:14pm CC: Yes...
	7:15pm CC: That is why I said some people...RR...
	🦇 7:15pm Julie: some folks only like garage rock. it's just a different sound
	🦇 7:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: i.e. - Produced doesn't mean Overproduced. Necessarily.
	🦇 7:19pm Julie: When I think of overproduced I think of the change that happened around 86, 87 too much synth too much everything
	7:20pm CC: Back in the late sixties early seventies people used to be critical of those bands that use too much orchestration...
	🦇 7:21pm Julie: I only recently learned they call that "baroque pop"
	🦇 7:21pm Julie: I love any mix of classical and rock/pop
	7:21pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Ha - I was wondering where I have heard this before, but Brigitte Bardot's Contact is indeed the sample used in Flieger by Death In June. Both artists also share ideologies/opinions not everyone agrees with so to speak.
	7:22pm CC: Kind of like how Jazz men and bluesmen used to have their differences???
	🦇 7:22pm Julie: yeah I'm always unsure if I should play DIJ or not. I know Fabio is very anti boyd rice
	7:23pm WR: Hi all. This show going to 1AM again? It's not dark out yet.
	🦇 7:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: There were people who followed Sgt. Pepper with less taste than the Moodys in their rush to get all Studio. We were just talking about the doors other night - & they fell into that a little bit. & not as badly as others.... A concern in any era...
	🦇 7:24pm Julie: haha sorry WR only till 10.
	7:25pm CC: Jim Morrison's lyrics was what set the Doors apart...Soft Parade!!!
	🦇 7:27pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Loved that Sundays track, Julie!
	7:27pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @7:22 Julie: I would say Bardot is more outspoken about her opinions. Death In June is harder to define regarding any ideologies, but let's say his opinions might not be to everyone's liking.
	7:27pm Sylvia (France-NYC): trivia: I discovered The Sundays trough Buffy The Vampire Slayer :)
	7:28pm Sylvia (France-NYC): tHrough
	🦇 7:28pm Julie: that's another thing! I never expected Buffy to be SO good
	7:28pm Sylvia (France-NYC): oh my, Buffy is everything
	🦇 7:29pm Julie: movie buffy turned out to be a real MAGAt
	7:32pm CC: You must be a smart girl Julie you're not supposed to socialize with people who don't live in your own household!!!
	7:32pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I never should have returned that Sundays album to the library! Thanks for playing them.
	7:32pm Sylvia (France-NYC): I haven't watched the movie, and probably never will, don't want to ruin what came to be after
	🦇 7:40pm Julie: they are really not connected in any way. She moved to a new town and makes only passing references to her old home
	7:41pm Sylvia (France-NYC): it's set in LA then, ok I see
	7:43pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Well Julie you at least knew Broadcast to some extent at the time, I completely ignored them! Were they hyped by music press or what did I find off-putting, can't remember. Well, turns out they gigged quite a lot around Tender Buttons which is when I lived in UK, so I missed on so much by being stubbornly ignorant. It is always unfair when a talented (and apparently enjoying her life very much, from what I have read) person like she was dies much too early.
	🦇 7:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I have a fairly strong antipopulist streak : I shy away if something's too popular. Applies to Cobain & not Broadcast of course. Another thing actually happens with me - is I get a sense an Artist is gonna be a heavy - & I don't always feel ready to fall in love & go thru the ringer of what will be involved. Nick Drake the major example of that for me... Actually that's still true with Cobsin! He's my age group & all kinds of things - a little close to home !! ...By the time David was Bowie he was done with the Mod bands... He did have a collaboration or two that was more FolkRawk in between actually! A band called "Feathers'...
	🦇 7:45pm Julie: oooh that sounds cool are there recordings?
	7:45pm Doug Schulkind: Hi Julie!
	🦇 7:45pm Julie: heya Doug!
	🦇 7:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: A few i think...
	🦇 7:46pm Julie: I only just today found out about the Brecht thing, I nearly played one tonight but I liked the silly one
	🦇 7:46pm Julie: man Void Vision is sooooo good
	🦇 7:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Could only be London 1967 : youtu.be... God on crutches I love Syd.
	7:51pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I guess Ching-a-Ling on the 5 cd David Bowie box set Conversation Piece is a Feathers recording - I should have a listen soon!
	🦇 7:52pm Julie: I can't keep up with all the bowie boxes!
	7:52pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: the same one as the youtube link above in R.R.Nov'63's post
	7:57pm CC: RR...makes you wonder what Dali must have been thinking???
	🦇 7:58pm Julie: Helllllo Dali... on next week's acid jazz hands
	🦇 7:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bowie & Hutch ! : thestrangebrew.co.uk...
	🦇 8:00pm Julie: I really expected to see David Soul there
	8:02pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: I see Leeds Utd are back in the Premier League....sigh
	🦇 8:04pm Julie: hmm the other day the playlist was heavily blonde today it is more brunette
	8:05pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: Julie, did u fancy most, David Starsky, Ken Hutchinson, or Huggy Bear?
	🦇 8:06pm Julie: Huggy Bear had amazing style. I was definitely a Hutch fan.
	8:07pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: k
	8:07pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: A pity i had to be away from the speakers for most of Stranger in Paradise - I had no idea Saint Etienne did this too.
	🦇 8:07pm Julie: it's a very lovely version
	8:08pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I saw Cranes in 2004 but have heard no albums after Population Four, which I already did not like much.
	🦇 8:08pm Julie: loved and wings of joy are definitely the highlights for me
	8:10pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: what the..
	🦇 8:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Interview with Bowie Producer Visconti - discusses some early Bowie history ...@ least I think this is the one - I've listened to so much stuff... : www.gear-club.net...
	8:11pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: i thought that was gonna be Weird Al's version
	8:12pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @8:08 Julie: Forever for me.The early stuff like Selflessness (or what the first 12" was called) is lovely too, as are Loved and Wings of Joy. It is just I have not listened them almost at all since 1999.
	8:12pm CC: My Aunt Sarah showed up I got to go out into the front yard and turn the music up and socialize at a distance for a few minutes...bbl...:)
	🦇 8:16pm Julie: See ya later CC!
	8:16pm WR: Pops up from worm hole of books I have about Bowie before 74. The Feathers track Ching-a-Ling is on the deluxe 2 CD release of the David Bowie album on Decca Deram. Will visit the Quatro interview you did. I expect much different due to differences between you and Todd and also she's currently flogging her new stuff.
	8:16pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: one of Katie's best
	8:17pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: possibly best
	🦇 8:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Some lines just go in the tool box for use : ...' I want to be a Scholar - but I really can't be bothered '...
	🦇 8:19pm Julie: yes! so good
	8:19pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: Olivia stood next to the fireplace too long
	8:21pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: this one's got a good beat
	🦇 8:34pm Julie: chasing everyone off with the shoegaze?
	8:37pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: No, I am still here, and I hate washing dishes! Also, cooking around 4am might not be the best idea to fight insomnia but it is what it is and I am what I am.
	🦇 8:38pm Julie: Ramen was made for 4am
	🦇 8:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Even I am less verbose occasionally! Loves Pink Dots.
	🦇 8:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wondered what obscure mannered Freakbeat band that was...oh Monkees :p
	8:44pm still b/p: Lather!
	🦇 8:45pm Julie: I sang this at the hoof and mouth one year
	8:45pm still b/p: Do the nose thing for us in next mic break.
	🦇 8:46pm Julie: haha Gaylord did that part (of course)
	8:46pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: wild orangutans couldnt chase me away
	🦇 8:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Saturn Return ...speaking of great lines : young people call famous old call insane...
	8:49pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Ha,I just spotted a Guardian article on a new book "Small Hours: The Long Night of John Martyn" with the headline 'Greek, without the sex': Nick Drake and John Martyn's folk bromance. Hmmm.
	🦇 8:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always think maryjane is code for pot. Five Leaves Left.
	8:51pm Daya: Hey Hey :) I made it! Sorry, lost my internet for quite a while
	🦇 8:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pretty true. Did not do well with performing Live - most of it probably yeah.
	8:54pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Yes, from what I have read Nick Drake's performances were few in number and quite hit and miss, at times apparently brilliant but no communication with audience and long tuning breaks between songs.
	🦇 8:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Got good reviews & regard of Musicians but didn't sell - & that messed him up.
	8:56pm Daya: DAY -uh! ;P
	🦇 8:56pm Julie: oh shit I knew that too. I'm sorry Daya
	🦇 8:57pm Julie: I've known that for years sorry about that
	8:57pm Daya: No worries, I’m just teasing :D
	🦇 8:58pm Julie: Like Day-O but with an "A" :P
	🦇 8:58pm Julie: Yeah the guy was obviously quite shy
	9:00pm Daya: When I meet people, and tell them my name, they start singing that song to me, more often than not ;)
	9:01pm still b/p: Was thinking about Elton John today....and the duck outfit onstage. The duck outfit. Never grasped the choice.
	🦇 9:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Drake ad infinitum... Was thinking there's such a contrast of the sincerity & depth of his expression - & the immaculate precision of his method - vocally & as guitarist. Adding Performer / Entertainer / Promoter was too much to ask...
	9:01pm CC: Still stuck out in the front yard but I'm listening intently!!!
	🦇 9:03pm Julie: that was no regular duck outfit that was a Bob Mackie duck outfit
	🦇 9:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: With Elton I'm thinking for me he's what I think The Who is for everybody else! In sense that I don't know much more than the Hits & later periods - & it's not actually enuff. ...As for duck costumes & the rest - how would you parse what Performing & Identity meant for Reginald? He was extremely good @ it in any event! ...& then there's Nyro...
	🦇 9:06pm Julie: Daya do you have a Nyro story? I feel like you would have a Nyro story?
	🦇 9:07pm Julie: Elton was also super shy so he put on a big show to hide in
	9:08pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: lovely Nyro, good choice Miss Julie
	9:09pm still b/p: When Mackie "offered to create a Donald Duck outfit for John's Central Park gig, it was too good an opportunity to pass up." Didn't know that. But how does one arrive at that particular idea and that offer for that person and that occasion? Get Mackie on the phone. I might need to acquire some Nyro.
	🦇 9:09pm Julie: thank you!
	9:09pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: Yep, Elton deffo very shy lol
	🦇 9:09pm Julie: Maybe he'd wanted to get Cher in one for years and knew only EJ would have the balls for it
	9:09pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I'd like to hear a Nyro story as well. Nick Drake stories are usually too heartbreaking.
	9:11pm Daya: Yeah, I do have a Laura story, you know me too well ;) We DO have to talk at some point, SO many stories we need to talk about!
	🦇 9:11pm Julie: I wanna tell one of those made up stories like DJ Irene has the descendant of one of Laura Nyro's cats or something
	9:12pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: any story will do, don't let truths get in the way of cats' descendants!
	🦇 9:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I have one of Tim Buckley's hubcaps. No I don't.
	🦇 9:14pm Julie: you knew the genesis was coming...
	9:15pm Daya: Well, I’m sure you know she was born in Danbury CT, (she also died there, despite living other places) and her born last name is Nigro.
	🦇 9:15pm Julie: I think I knew the Danbury part but not her last name
	🦇 9:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So prefer Gabriel to Collins ymmv. Nigro !
	🦇 9:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So 1969. Don't know this @ all! Dig it. Thx.
	9:18pm Daya: Sorry, she was born in NYC, (Bronx maybe? I have to look) but yeah, lived in Danbury for quite a while.
	🦇 9:19pm Julie: I'm obsessed with that first Genesis album.
	9:20pm Daya: When to school with a cousin (or relative) for hers.
	9:20pm Daya: Yes, early Genesis is SO much different than their later work. That’s one band that definitely evolved!
	9:22pm Dean: Genesis is more like: first album, followed by second album, then third, fourth... Every step was different from the last. The first album was largely a product of the producer Jonathan King.
	🦇 9:23pm Julie: hiya Dean!
	🦇 9:24pm Julie: but I think the other albums are more like each other than like the 1st one
	9:24pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: Jonathan King: absolute legend
	🦇 9:24pm Julie: its like southern death cult versus cult. or the first MBV album.
	🦇 9:25pm Julie: hmm I guess I must look up Mr King
	9:25pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: yes you must!
	🦇 9:26pm Julie: I keep trying to find things that sound like that first album
	9:26pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: watch his 80s tv show on youtube; Entertainment USA. I watched it as a kid
	🦇 9:26pm Julie: I refuse to let Moz ruin the smiths for me
	9:26pm Dean: Acqua Fragile's first album
	🦇 9:27pm Julie: wow I don't even know that name. I will look into it, thanks D!
	🦇 9:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: King wigkey : en.m.wikipedia.org... Ha Julie ! Good luck! He tries so hard to...
	9:28pm Daya: I first got exposed to Genesis with “Wind & Wuthering” (‘Your Own Special Way’) but then went back and discovered their earlier stuff.
	9:29pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: To think for years I had absolutely no idea what these lyrics were about. It was not that rare but neither that common for songs about "these things" to chart in the UK or elsewhere.
	9:29pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: invisible touch is easily genesises best album if u clean your ears out
	9:31pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: we're having fun too
	9:31pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I am slowly starting to "get" Genesis. In spite of early exposure (too early, I was 8 years old)to "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" I never got into them before this show.
	🦇 9:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm quite bad @ picking up on lyrics often. Funny. I just let Music submerge me...
	🦇 9:34pm Julie: with cocteau's early work you have no choice. No way you understand Liz
	🦇 9:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah the 'good' early Genesis just never crossed my path somehow. Maybe not distributed in the U.S. so much...
	9:35pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: dont go blaming the distributors
	🦇 9:35pm Julie: oh yeah I think it was like Empty Sky didn't come out till the mid70s in the US when they were already famous
	9:36pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @9:34 Julie: are any of their lyrics, even later ones, understandable? To me it is just melodic syllables.
	9:37pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: Trespass was released on 8-Trak in USA in 1970
	🦇 9:38pm Julie: Heaven or Las Vegas is pretty intelligible that's why I'm not crazy about it
	🦇 9:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: My older brother spoonfed me masses - & he had King Crimson as it happened...maybe he just didn't like Genesis!
	🦇 9:39pm Julie: Even my hip sister had a couple genesis records, Foxtrot and Duke I think
	9:39pm still b/p: A few artists this evening have sounded like Kate Bush. Including Kate Bush.
	🦇 9:39pm Julie: Trespass yes Genesis to Revelation, no
	🦇 9:40pm Julie: @still yeah I obviously have a thing for that kinda voice!
	🦇 9:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Clearly Kate has had a huge but kind of stealthy influence.
	9:42pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @9:38 Julie: I'm not sure which one of the bunch I got from the library I listened first to, but Heaven Or Las Vegas did really hit me right from the first listen, it is the one that convinced me of their greatness.
	🦇 9:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mazzy to the core! Thx for keeping them circulating.
	9:43pm Daya: “Heaven or Las Vegas” was my go-to, for sleeping on planes when I was doing Newark to LA runs, every other week in the early 90s, but yeah, good luck trying to figure out those lyrics pre-internet! ;)
	🦇 9:43pm Julie: @cha cha yes i hear that a lot. I think what you hear first makes a huge difference. For me it wsa Treasure.
	🦇 9:43pm Julie: I think I am stuck in the 90s
	9:44pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @9:39 Julie: both are lovely, I really need to listen to them more. Like I have said many times, I might never have become this interested in them if it was not for this show.
	🦇 9:44pm Julie: that's awesome Cha Cha
	🦇 9:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well it becomes apparent how much indispensable music was happening then - it wasn't just Grunge...
	🦇 9:46pm Julie: it was a wonderful time for female singers and female led bands
	9:46pm CC: I never dreamed in my whole life that so many things could be wrong with America!!!...sigh...
	🦇 9:47pm Julie: CC oh yeah...we know :/
	9:48pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: "The Kinks Are The Village Green Preservation Society" is, just like all the best work by Brothers Davies, perfect songs about the human condition.
	🦇 9:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hitchcock - & I'm odd into Julian Cope... It is heartbreaking because in the 1990s we thot the internet would decentralize everything - we were transcending Left & Right politically - getting a new kind of psychedelia - & on & on. Ending the Cold War...
	🦇 9:50pm Julie: Like Julian too!
	9:50pm still b/p: I'm going to watch a 1965 debate featuring James Baldwin and William Buckley: "Is the American Dream at the expense of the American Negro?" More than half a century on, I expect it to be frustrating and dispiriting. Maybe disturbing. But interesting.
	9:50pm Daya: Yes, 80s-early 90s were a great time for female musicians, who all owe a huge debut to Kate. I saw (among others) The Slits, Tori, Sarah, met Aimee Mann and Kate, etc...
	🦇 9:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Just picking up on Baldwin. He's the stuff.
	9:52pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: While I am always sad when Gigolo Aunt comes in, signalling the end of the show, I am so happy you'll come back on Monday!!!
	9:53pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Though I still can't get over missing your tuesday show - I know archives exist but AAARRRGGGHH.
	9:53pm WR: Thank you for another great show!
	9:54pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: me and my dead horse are appreciative
	9:54pm Daya: Alas, won’t get to listen in Monday, having the last of my sutures removed at 1pm, but I will be here Thursday!
	9:54pm still b/p: Mille grazie.
	9:54pm Daya: Thanks for tonight!
	🦇 9:55pm Julie: good luck with that Daya! Thanks for listening everyone, see ya next time!
	🦇 9:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Did feel different. Always rewarding. TY. Also - appreciate your virtual hospitality here.
	9:56pm CC: I'm pretty sure that most cops ain't afraid of me!?!...:)
	🦇 9:56pm Julie: pleeeeeeeease
	🦇 9:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Glad they're coming out Daya !
	🦇 9:58pm Julie: Leonard Cohen is why headphones were invented
	9:58pm CC: Cheerz all..!..
	🦇 9:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cohen's both devastating & hilarious.
	🦇 9:59pm Julie: take care everyone!!
	9:59pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Thanks so much Julie for doing this!!!

Listener comments!
	6:21pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: It's going to be a very dark night indeed
	6:54pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: It is a dark night here in Finland - from this you can guess I am not in the north where the sun is up 24/7 until the end of July.
	6:56pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: But hey everyone, I am here early! A pity I forgot the tuesday show completely - a mighty fine show based on the track list. There were plenty of stuff unknown to me as well.
	🦇 6:57pm Julie: Hiya Cha Cha & Larry's Horse
	🦇 7:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Juliethon goes on ! ...loves prefame Boowies...
	🦇 7:01pm Julie: heya Rev Rabbit!
	🦇 7:02pm Julie: tonight's show is full of more familiar fare, if not the songs than at least the artists.
	7:03pm CC: Hi Julie and all of you dark souls out there!!!...
	🦇 7:03pm Julie: Hiya CC!
	7:03pm northguineahills: Bowie and Futurama? Please take my money!
	7:04pm David Dichelle: Hello Julie on this side of the hour!
	7:04pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I just realized I have never seen Love You till Tuesday - I missed it completely when it was aired here in 1989.
	🦇 7:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sheila B was soliciting Girlcentric Summery toons for next week - either pro or anti Summer - & I had nothing & was wishing I was you...
	🦇 7:04pm Julie: hiya David! Hi NGH!
	7:05pm CC: That's exactly the kind of stuff that I like!!!...:)
	7:05pm northguineahills: oh right, WFMU already did.... ;)
	7:06pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: And I still have not listened to Days of Future Passed in its entirety - I have owned the original pressing for only 25 years.
	7:06pm northguineahills: (after I was finally able, my apoligies to Joe McG.)
	7:07pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I guess I say the same thing every time this album is played here.
	🦇 7:07pm Julie: I know it's a cliche but it really is quite wonderful
	7:07pm Sylvia (France-NYC): Good evening, Julie and listeners, I won't listen for long (still on France timezone!), I'll catch up later on the archives, have a good show!!
	7:07pm northguineahills: and I got the quote wrong, it's, "shut up and take my money" (as done by Fry).
	🦇 7:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I think of these guys as a major transition from Psych to Prog. Btw. Not sure they get any such regard - but I see them in with The Beatles & Floyd & the lot...
	🦇 7:10pm Julie: Hey there Sylvia! Yes very late for you, but it's ice to see you for a bit.
	🦇 7:10pm Julie: I had no idea Futurama would end up being so important in my life
	7:11pm CC: Some people claim that they way overproduced themselves???
	7:12pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Latecomer to this party. I mean I LOVE BROADCAST. Love their music, but not when they were around and learned of Trish Keenan's 2011 death only a few weeks ago.
	🦇 7:13pm Julie: I definitely have listened to them more since she passed
	7:13pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @7:11 CC: you mean Moody Blues? Contemporary critics (many of them) apparently hated them for this reason.
	🦇 7:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I don't think of Moodys as overproduced cause they sound right to me. If anything but raw Rawk is overproduced to someone - then nothing can be done.
	7:14pm CC: Yes...
	7:15pm CC: That is why I said some people...RR...
	🦇 7:15pm Julie: some folks only like garage rock. it's just a different sound
	🦇 7:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: i.e. - Produced doesn't mean Overproduced. Necessarily.
	🦇 7:19pm Julie: When I think of overproduced I think of the change that happened around 86, 87 too much synth too much everything
	7:20pm CC: Back in the late sixties early seventies people used to be critical of those bands that use too much orchestration...
	🦇 7:21pm Julie: I only recently learned they call that "baroque pop"
	🦇 7:21pm Julie: I love any mix of classical and rock/pop
	7:21pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Ha - I was wondering where I have heard this before, but Brigitte Bardot's Contact is indeed the sample used in Flieger by Death In June. Both artists also share ideologies/opinions not everyone agrees with so to speak.
	7:22pm CC: Kind of like how Jazz men and bluesmen used to have their differences???
	🦇 7:22pm Julie: yeah I'm always unsure if I should play DIJ or not. I know Fabio is very anti boyd rice
	7:23pm WR: Hi all. This show going to 1AM again? It's not dark out yet.
	🦇 7:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: There were people who followed Sgt. Pepper with less taste than the Moodys in their rush to get all Studio. We were just talking about the doors other night - & they fell into that a little bit. & not as badly as others.... A concern in any era...
	🦇 7:24pm Julie: haha sorry WR only till 10.
	7:25pm CC: Jim Morrison's lyrics was what set the Doors apart...Soft Parade!!!
	🦇 7:27pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Loved that Sundays track, Julie!
	7:27pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @7:22 Julie: I would say Bardot is more outspoken about her opinions. Death In June is harder to define regarding any ideologies, but let's say his opinions might not be to everyone's liking.
	7:27pm Sylvia (France-NYC): trivia: I discovered The Sundays trough Buffy The Vampire Slayer :)
	7:28pm Sylvia (France-NYC): tHrough
	🦇 7:28pm Julie: that's another thing! I never expected Buffy to be SO good
	7:28pm Sylvia (France-NYC): oh my, Buffy is everything
	🦇 7:29pm Julie: movie buffy turned out to be a real MAGAt
	7:32pm CC: You must be a smart girl Julie you're not supposed to socialize with people who don't live in your own household!!!
	7:32pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I never should have returned that Sundays album to the library! Thanks for playing them.
	7:32pm Sylvia (France-NYC): I haven't watched the movie, and probably never will, don't want to ruin what came to be after
	🦇 7:40pm Julie: they are really not connected in any way. She moved to a new town and makes only passing references to her old home
	7:41pm Sylvia (France-NYC): it's set in LA then, ok I see
	7:43pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Well Julie you at least knew Broadcast to some extent at the time, I completely ignored them! Were they hyped by music press or what did I find off-putting, can't remember. Well, turns out they gigged quite a lot around Tender Buttons which is when I lived in UK, so I missed on so much by being stubbornly ignorant. It is always unfair when a talented (and apparently enjoying her life very much, from what I have read) person like she was dies much too early.
	🦇 7:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I have a fairly strong antipopulist streak : I shy away if something's too popular. Applies to Cobain & not Broadcast of course. Another thing actually happens with me - is I get a sense an Artist is gonna be a heavy - & I don't always feel ready to fall in love & go thru the ringer of what will be involved. Nick Drake the major example of that for me... Actually that's still true with Cobsin! He's my age group & all kinds of things - a little close to home !! ...By the time David was Bowie he was done with the Mod bands... He did have a collaboration or two that was more FolkRawk in between actually! A band called "Feathers'...
	🦇 7:45pm Julie: oooh that sounds cool are there recordings?
	7:45pm Doug Schulkind: Hi Julie!
	🦇 7:45pm Julie: heya Doug!
	🦇 7:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: A few i think...
	🦇 7:46pm Julie: I only just today found out about the Brecht thing, I nearly played one tonight but I liked the silly one
	🦇 7:46pm Julie: man Void Vision is sooooo good
	🦇 7:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Could only be London 1967 : youtu.be... God on crutches I love Syd.
	7:51pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I guess Ching-a-Ling on the 5 cd David Bowie box set Conversation Piece is a Feathers recording - I should have a listen soon!
	🦇 7:52pm Julie: I can't keep up with all the bowie boxes!
	7:52pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: the same one as the youtube link above in R.R.Nov'63's post
	7:57pm CC: RR...makes you wonder what Dali must have been thinking???
	🦇 7:58pm Julie: Helllllo Dali... on next week's acid jazz hands
	🦇 7:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bowie & Hutch ! : thestrangebrew.co.uk...
	🦇 8:00pm Julie: I really expected to see David Soul there
	8:02pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: I see Leeds Utd are back in the Premier League....sigh
	🦇 8:04pm Julie: hmm the other day the playlist was heavily blonde today it is more brunette
	8:05pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: Julie, did u fancy most, David Starsky, Ken Hutchinson, or Huggy Bear?
	🦇 8:06pm Julie: Huggy Bear had amazing style. I was definitely a Hutch fan.
	8:07pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: k
	8:07pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: A pity i had to be away from the speakers for most of Stranger in Paradise - I had no idea Saint Etienne did this too.
	🦇 8:07pm Julie: it's a very lovely version
	8:08pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I saw Cranes in 2004 but have heard no albums after Population Four, which I already did not like much.
	🦇 8:08pm Julie: loved and wings of joy are definitely the highlights for me
	8:10pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: what the..
	🦇 8:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Interview with Bowie Producer Visconti - discusses some early Bowie history ...@ least I think this is the one - I've listened to so much stuff... : www.gear-club.net...
	8:11pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: i thought that was gonna be Weird Al's version
	8:12pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @8:08 Julie: Forever for me.The early stuff like Selflessness (or what the first 12" was called) is lovely too, as are Loved and Wings of Joy. It is just I have not listened them almost at all since 1999.
	8:12pm CC: My Aunt Sarah showed up I got to go out into the front yard and turn the music up and socialize at a distance for a few minutes...bbl...:)
	🦇 8:16pm Julie: See ya later CC!
	8:16pm WR: Pops up from worm hole of books I have about Bowie before 74. The Feathers track Ching-a-Ling is on the deluxe 2 CD release of the David Bowie album on Decca Deram. Will visit the Quatro interview you did. I expect much different due to differences between you and Todd and also she's currently flogging her new stuff.
	8:16pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: one of Katie's best
	8:17pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: possibly best
	🦇 8:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Some lines just go in the tool box for use : ...' I want to be a Scholar - but I really can't be bothered '...
	🦇 8:19pm Julie: yes! so good
	8:19pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: Olivia stood next to the fireplace too long
	8:21pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: this one's got a good beat
	🦇 8:34pm Julie: chasing everyone off with the shoegaze?
	8:37pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: No, I am still here, and I hate washing dishes! Also, cooking around 4am might not be the best idea to fight insomnia but it is what it is and I am what I am.
	🦇 8:38pm Julie: Ramen was made for 4am
	🦇 8:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Even I am less verbose occasionally! Loves Pink Dots.
	🦇 8:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wondered what obscure mannered Freakbeat band that was...oh Monkees :p
	8:44pm still b/p: Lather!
	🦇 8:45pm Julie: I sang this at the hoof and mouth one year
	8:45pm still b/p: Do the nose thing for us in next mic break.
	🦇 8:46pm Julie: haha Gaylord did that part (of course)
	8:46pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: wild orangutans couldnt chase me away
	🦇 8:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Saturn Return ...speaking of great lines : young people call famous old call insane...
	8:49pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Ha,I just spotted a Guardian article on a new book "Small Hours: The Long Night of John Martyn" with the headline 'Greek, without the sex': Nick Drake and John Martyn's folk bromance. Hmmm.
	🦇 8:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always think maryjane is code for pot. Five Leaves Left.
	8:51pm Daya: Hey Hey :) I made it! Sorry, lost my internet for quite a while
	🦇 8:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pretty true. Did not do well with performing Live - most of it probably yeah.
	8:54pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Yes, from what I have read Nick Drake's performances were few in number and quite hit and miss, at times apparently brilliant but no communication with audience and long tuning breaks between songs.
	🦇 8:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Got good reviews & regard of Musicians but didn't sell - & that messed him up.
	8:56pm Daya: DAY -uh! ;P
	🦇 8:56pm Julie: oh shit I knew that too. I'm sorry Daya
	🦇 8:57pm Julie: I've known that for years sorry about that
	8:57pm Daya: No worries, I’m just teasing :D
	🦇 8:58pm Julie: Like Day-O but with an "A" :P
	🦇 8:58pm Julie: Yeah the guy was obviously quite shy
	9:00pm Daya: When I meet people, and tell them my name, they start singing that song to me, more often than not ;)
	9:01pm still b/p: Was thinking about Elton John today....and the duck outfit onstage. The duck outfit. Never grasped the choice.
	🦇 9:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Drake ad infinitum... Was thinking there's such a contrast of the sincerity & depth of his expression - & the immaculate precision of his method - vocally & as guitarist. Adding Performer / Entertainer / Promoter was too much to ask...
	9:01pm CC: Still stuck out in the front yard but I'm listening intently!!!
	🦇 9:03pm Julie: that was no regular duck outfit that was a Bob Mackie duck outfit
	🦇 9:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: With Elton I'm thinking for me he's what I think The Who is for everybody else! In sense that I don't know much more than the Hits & later periods - & it's not actually enuff. ...As for duck costumes & the rest - how would you parse what Performing & Identity meant for Reginald? He was extremely good @ it in any event! ...& then there's Nyro...
	🦇 9:06pm Julie: Daya do you have a Nyro story? I feel like you would have a Nyro story?
	🦇 9:07pm Julie: Elton was also super shy so he put on a big show to hide in
	9:08pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: lovely Nyro, good choice Miss Julie
	9:09pm still b/p: When Mackie "offered to create a Donald Duck outfit for John's Central Park gig, it was too good an opportunity to pass up." Didn't know that. But how does one arrive at that particular idea and that offer for that person and that occasion? Get Mackie on the phone. I might need to acquire some Nyro.
	🦇 9:09pm Julie: thank you!
	9:09pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: Yep, Elton deffo very shy lol
	🦇 9:09pm Julie: Maybe he'd wanted to get Cher in one for years and knew only EJ would have the balls for it
	9:09pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I'd like to hear a Nyro story as well. Nick Drake stories are usually too heartbreaking.
	9:11pm Daya: Yeah, I do have a Laura story, you know me too well ;) We DO have to talk at some point, SO many stories we need to talk about!
	🦇 9:11pm Julie: I wanna tell one of those made up stories like DJ Irene has the descendant of one of Laura Nyro's cats or something
	9:12pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: any story will do, don't let truths get in the way of cats' descendants!
	🦇 9:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I have one of Tim Buckley's hubcaps. No I don't.
	🦇 9:14pm Julie: you knew the genesis was coming...
	9:15pm Daya: Well, I’m sure you know she was born in Danbury CT, (she also died there, despite living other places) and her born last name is Nigro.
	🦇 9:15pm Julie: I think I knew the Danbury part but not her last name
	🦇 9:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So prefer Gabriel to Collins ymmv. Nigro !
	🦇 9:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So 1969. Don't know this @ all! Dig it. Thx.
	9:18pm Daya: Sorry, she was born in NYC, (Bronx maybe? I have to look) but yeah, lived in Danbury for quite a while.
	🦇 9:19pm Julie: I'm obsessed with that first Genesis album.
	9:20pm Daya: When to school with a cousin (or relative) for hers.
	9:20pm Daya: Yes, early Genesis is SO much different than their later work. That’s one band that definitely evolved!
	9:22pm Dean: Genesis is more like: first album, followed by second album, then third, fourth... Every step was different from the last. The first album was largely a product of the producer Jonathan King.
	🦇 9:23pm Julie: hiya Dean!
	🦇 9:24pm Julie: but I think the other albums are more like each other than like the 1st one
	9:24pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: Jonathan King: absolute legend
	🦇 9:24pm Julie: its like southern death cult versus cult. or the first MBV album.
	🦇 9:25pm Julie: hmm I guess I must look up Mr King
	9:25pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: yes you must!
	🦇 9:26pm Julie: I keep trying to find things that sound like that first album
	9:26pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: watch his 80s tv show on youtube; Entertainment USA. I watched it as a kid
	🦇 9:26pm Julie: I refuse to let Moz ruin the smiths for me
	9:26pm Dean: Acqua Fragile's first album
	🦇 9:27pm Julie: wow I don't even know that name. I will look into it, thanks D!
	🦇 9:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: King wigkey : en.m.wikipedia.org... Ha Julie ! Good luck! He tries so hard to...
	9:28pm Daya: I first got exposed to Genesis with “Wind & Wuthering” (‘Your Own Special Way’) but then went back and discovered their earlier stuff.
	9:29pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: To think for years I had absolutely no idea what these lyrics were about. It was not that rare but neither that common for songs about "these things" to chart in the UK or elsewhere.
	9:29pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: invisible touch is easily genesises best album if u clean your ears out
	9:31pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: we're having fun too
	9:31pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I am slowly starting to "get" Genesis. In spite of early exposure (too early, I was 8 years old)to "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" I never got into them before this show.
	🦇 9:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm quite bad @ picking up on lyrics often. Funny. I just let Music submerge me...
	🦇 9:34pm Julie: with cocteau's early work you have no choice. No way you understand Liz
	🦇 9:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah the 'good' early Genesis just never crossed my path somehow. Maybe not distributed in the U.S. so much...
	9:35pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: dont go blaming the distributors
	🦇 9:35pm Julie: oh yeah I think it was like Empty Sky didn't come out till the mid70s in the US when they were already famous
	9:36pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @9:34 Julie: are any of their lyrics, even later ones, understandable? To me it is just melodic syllables.
	9:37pm Larry Hagman's Dead Horse: Trespass was released on 8-Trak in USA in 1970
	🦇 9:38pm Julie: Heaven or Las Vegas is pretty intelligible that's why I'm not crazy about it
	🦇 9:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: My older brother spoonfed me masses - & he had King Crimson as it happened...maybe he just didn't like Genesis!
	🦇 9:39pm Julie: Even my hip sister had a couple genesis records, Foxtrot and Duke I think
	9:39pm still b/p: A few artists this evening have sounded like Kate Bush. Including Kate Bush.
	🦇 9:39pm Julie: Trespass yes Genesis to Revelation, no
	🦇 9:40pm Julie: @still yeah I obviously have a thing for that kinda voice!
	🦇 9:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Clearly Kate has had a huge but kind of stealthy influence.
	9:42pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @9:38 Julie: I'm not sure which one of the bunch I got from the library I listened first to, but Heaven Or Las Vegas did really hit me right from the first listen, it is the one that convinced me of their greatness.
	🦇 9:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mazzy to the core! Thx for keeping them circulating.
	9:43pm Daya: “Heaven or Las Vegas” was my go-to, for sleeping on planes when I was doing Newark to LA runs, every other week in the early 90s, but yeah, good luck trying to figure out those lyrics pre-internet! ;)
	🦇 9:43pm Julie: @cha cha yes i hear that a lot. I think what you hear first makes a huge difference. For me it wsa Treasure.
	🦇 9:43pm Julie: I think I am stuck in the 90s
	9:44pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @9:39 Julie: both are lovely, I really need to listen to them more. Like I have said many times, I might never have become this interested in them if it was not for this show.
	🦇 9:44pm Julie: that's awesome Cha Cha
	🦇 9:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well it becomes apparent how much indispensable music was happening then - it wasn't just Grunge...
	🦇 9:46pm Julie: it was a wonderful time for female singers and female led bands
	9:46pm CC: I never dreamed in my whole life that so many things could be wrong with America!!!...sigh...
	🦇 9:47pm Julie: CC oh yeah...we know :/
	9:48pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: "The Kinks Are The Village Green Preservation Society" is, just like all the best work by Brothers Davies, perfect songs about the human condition.
	🦇 9:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hitchcock - & I'm odd into Julian Cope... It is heartbreaking because in the 1990s we thot the internet would decentralize everything - we were transcending Left & Right politically - getting a new kind of psychedelia - & on & on. Ending the Cold War...
	🦇 9:50pm Julie: Like Julian too!
	9:50pm still b/p: I'm going to watch a 1965 debate featuring James Baldwin and William Buckley: "Is the American Dream at the expense of the American Negro?" More than half a century on, I expect it to be frustrating and dispiriting. Maybe disturbing. But interesting.
	9:50pm Daya: Yes, 80s-early 90s were a great time for female musicians, who all owe a huge debut to Kate. I saw (among others) The Slits, Tori, Sarah, met Aimee Mann and Kate, etc...
