All the blues all the time. An antidote to the moribund, corny and/or humorless blues programming generally found on the radio.

I liked both of them at the time, but the Stones mean 100x times more than the Beatles to me now.

oh yes. when i started listening to the Stones (big bro's collection), i was amazed to find honky tonk and blues tracks. what a delight. thanks, Matt!

the joke aisle:

When I was a DJ on the campus radio station at U. of Delaware in about 1981, I caught a whole raft of shit from a listener who called in, incensed that I played The Stones on a blues program. Rock on, Sir!

Are Watts' jazz records any good?

It'd be great to hear some of Alexis Corner's Blues incorporated if that is possible

ultradamno, Fabio played some stuff from the People Band that was pretty wild.

This is an excellent thing, this.

I was just listening to the drum track to Gimme Shelter a couple of weeks ago ..I was doing a cover on my 8 track

Love the way "Get Off My Cloud" opens with a drum solo !!

Holy shit, this is like 95% as good as the full band version. (3% of the rest being supplied by Merry Clayton.)

Gun Club's Fire Of Love is 40 years old today...which I think has some relevance to the subject matter here.

true that, Edward.

Joke Aisle- important life lesson there. I was on VA Tech and another college with weak transmitter in 1981 too.. realized it didn't matter what less than a dozen people thought at 4AM because I was doing the damn work.

man, Duane's 3-hour tribute to Scratch today was a thing of art and musicology. wish all schooling was that fun.

i wish that anyone who i talked to lee perry about this week outside of the wfmu boards had any remote appreciation for the scale of the influence and impact

I like John Stamos as a drummer

Or David Duchovny as frontman and singer twitter.com...

Bass? Is that the fish thing?

coelacanth∅:

chris yeah that episode's a keeper
adam i think the majority of "reggae lovers" don't know who Lee Perry is; but i think he's possibly the most important person in the development of the genre... certainly more important than the ubiquitously-known Bob Marley
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:35pm
Handy Haversack:

Your floundering, ultradamno.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:36pm
ultradamno:

He did the thing I like most in that kind of music, instrumentals with lots of reverb

Ugh, spell it right if you want to land a joke, Haversack. Get reel.

Pretty awesome cut Matt!! Who came first, Muddy or Tommy?? Kinda like the chicken and the egg.........
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:42pm
ultradamno:

Tommy was about 10 years older
  Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:42pm
Ira:

Listening to the whole show, but late to the Comments. No argument with Charlie as coolest Rolling Stone. But in my case, and I'll bet many others, that distinction had previously been held by Brian, Mick, and Keith (pretty much in that order). I.e. everyone but Bill. (Georgia says Mick Taylor.)
Avatar 7:43pm
tak:

they had better propaganda, but it was a matter of time
  7:44pm
Edward:

Ira: We were all young and dumb once.
Avatar 7:44pm
lothianman:

Mick Taylor was great in his own right........got to see him solo awhile back and he finished off with his Can't Ya Hear Me Knockin Solo...........pretty impressive
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:44pm
ultradamno:

He was possibly the most Mick punching...that we know of.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:45pm
Matt Fiveash:

Ira- Some days of the week, Bill is my favorite Stone: simultaneously the least interesting person and most interesting musician in the group.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:46pm
ultradamno:

Well, Brian didn't live long enough to be that embarrassing, did he?
Avatar 7:46pm
lothianman:

Guess Big Boy gets overlooked again !! True Elvis Presley fashion.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:46pm
chris in the redwoods:

dang, Ray. tell it.
  Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:46pm
Ira:

Edward, I know I was. To think how highly I regarded that Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out top hat, cape and omega t-shirt ensemble. Matt, every time I hear Bill's fuzz bass . . .
  7:49pm
Edward:

Unless I'm wrong, Matt specified the original lineup. So, while Mick Taylor never said or did anything embarrassing that I know of, there was Bill and his many sub-16 chicks, for which Keith registered his contempt in LIFE.

Oh, if you want WFMU's own People Like Us' digital discography on Bandcamp, it's 85% off today only.

I always liked that quirky thing Wyman did back late 80s/90s........name escapes me

Would have listened to that Ray Charles song a lot longer, I gotta say.

Canadian big rig truckers, flower wholesalers, stroke survivors, news writers and readers-
all kinds of folks keep surprising me to relate how much they know about and love this show. Great work, Matt!

Old Dave- wow! You sure you got the right Matt?
  7:52pm
Edward:

Ultradamno: You gotta shittin' me. Look up Brian's record of beating Nico and Anita Pallenberg, to name two. The man was a disgrace as a human.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:53pm
Corey:

This Billy "The Kid" Emerson is off the hook.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:53pm

Thanks for the reminder, ultradamno! Grabbed.

And thanks for the tunes, Matt! This has been a treat. Stay dry and blue, all.

Great selection on Gimmie Shelter drums. Those toms are immortal! I'm pretty sure nobody else sounds like that.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:10am
Clinto:

That punching story is great but something tells me it might be more than a little embellished by ol' Keith. "Then he slid on the smoked salmon and was heading right out the window!" What is this, the three stooges?
