	12:05pm morphe': Cajun Disco song ... I knew not ...In the early 70s in Ireland(pre-disco), any largish =slighltly bigger than small venue was called a Disco ... as in "are ya going to the Disco tonight" even though it was a Rory Gallager cover band ...

	12:10pm tim from washington: Figgsrock - that was me. Good to hear it was a good read. I think I’ll order it and the Bobby Gillespie book from Third Man. I just finished the Chris Bell book. I highly recommend it if you haven’t read it yet.
	12:10pm luka: TUNE
	12:10pm Uncle Michael: Oooh, listen for Mike Finnegan's voice on this Dave Mason.
	12:10pm listener james from westwood: This Dave Mason track!
	12:10pm AnAnonymousParty: Who's eating Rice Crispies?
	12:10pm Figgsrock: @Tim--I have not read the Chris Bell. I'll add it to my list.
	12:10pm clarke: whoah - who wrote the chris bell bio??
	12:10pm nycmusicnerd: Yeah...this is a good one.
	12:11pm Artie: Oh, there are bad guys.
	12:11pm Will thee Sound Guy: B R M, no vinyl emoji because of the conspiracy.... Honestly, no idea why... I've always wondered why
	12:11pm Edgar from Maine: Wow. Dave Mason. sweet
	12:11pm tim from washington: Hahaha I always thought this David Mason song was by Orleans.
	12:11pm Figgsrock: Did I turn this Dave Mason up to floor-shaking volume? Yes, because the eight-year-old in me still loves this song.
	12:11pm eric from lake hiawatha: Thanks EFD, ya play this and she comes back into my mind!
	12:12pm bobsmart567: Why you Gotta play this Evan? Now I’m gonna be singin’ it all day
	12:12pm gwtg: This is on my list of my older sister's record collection and continous play of the 70's
	12:12pm Polyus: Whoa memories of my first little AM radio.
	12:12pm morphe': HBD !!!! Clarke
	12:12pm Will thee Sound Guy: Should have 2 vinyl emojis... 12" small spindle hole and 7" big spindle hole
	12:13pm Chris Hiatt: When I first became aware of listening to the radio, that Dave Mason song was on almost constantly.
	12:13pm tim from washington: Clarke - Rich Tupica. Published by Hozac books. Seek it out.
	12:13pm clarke: nice mate - johnsons
	12:13pm clarke: i will seek Tim!
	12:14pm Edgar from Maine: You can try but you CAN'T get the funk outta my face. You CAN'T.
	12:14pm tim from washington: Today the f in efd stands for ‘feathered hair’.
	12:15pm nycmusicnerd: Tim: LOL
	12:15pm clarke: EFD - he's dynamite!!!!
	12:16pm TimSF: haha tim. did you ever have the feathered hair? I did.
	12:16pm Edgar from Maine: Dy-no-mite
	12:16pm Will thee Sound Guy: 🎼🎸🔥
	12:16pm clarke: @tim - dang that book is price-y!!
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: I had hair. I remember that.
	12:17pm Will thee Sound Guy: I wish i had a real bass clef emoji
	12:17pm tim from washington: Ha! TimSF - my hair was always too unruly even if a tried.
	12:18pm Will thee Sound Guy: These emojicons are treble
	12:18pm clarke: davies in the sewer!!!
	12:18pm Edgar from Maine: Sounds like EFD is in a subway tunnel.
	12:19pm Uncle Michael: We can rescue EFD...we can dig down parallel to the well and get him out!
	12:19pm tim from washington: clarke - yeah it is. I was fortunate to have a friend loan it to me. Try Interlibrary Loan through your local library if they don’t have it. That’s what I’ve done to read other Hozac books.
	12:19pm Hoboken Jack: Hello EFD, Will, Clarke, Will Clark, happy birthday Clarke!, McGroove, Handy, when's your bday Bagpipe, everybody!
	12:20pm Edgar from Maine: Just throw some autotuned music into the pit with him and that'll force him out.
	12:20pm Jack McGuire: Sadly, Loose Joints' "Pop Your Funk" was a tardy 1980 release.
	12:20pm tim from washington: clarke - yeah it is. I was fortunate to have a friend loan it to me. Try Interlibrary Loan through your local library if they don’t have it. That’s what I’ve done to read other Hozac books.
	12:20pm McGroovey: EFD is doing a remote from roller rink! (I'm pretending that's true.)
	12:20pm clarke: jack!!!! @tim - our library system barely exists, in LA
	12:21pm Frank In Queens: Hey hey!
	12:21pm clarke: fraaaank!!
	12:21pm McGroovey: Heya Jack, &allEweKidz
	12:21pm clarke: zappnin'??
	12:22pm Krys O.: Good afternoon!
	12:22pm tim from washington: I believe it, clarke.
	12:22pm Hoboken Jack: Hey Krys and Frank!!
	12:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: Singles going to 3PM!
	12:22pm McGroovey: The sun is out. I have a cat on my chest. I haven't had my coffee yet.
	12:22pm clarke: when i was in MA the library system is really great - they would order books you requested, etc.
	12:23pm Krys O.: Hi, Jack!
	12:23pm WoodsOfMaine: @clarke: You ever read Susan Orlean's The Library Book? The kinda sad story about the LA library system.
	12:23pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Hoboken Jack!
	12:23pm tim from washington: Whoa, efd would be the ultimate skate rink DJ!
	12:23pm clarke: not yet, Woods!
	12:23pm Hoboken Jack: HP Ken with his 45rpm pants!
	12:24pm clarke: @Woods - you still in maine??
	12:24pm WoodsOfMaine: @clarke: Yessuh! Permanently.
	12:25pm TimSF: @WoodsOf Maine: Yes, sad story about the fire...but great book all around.
	12:25pm Frank In Queens: Hi Jack! @clarke, just got in from work. Home for the rest of the week!
	12:25pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack! Bagpipe's bday is Feb 29 -- that way he'll live four times as long. Math is easy!
	12:25pm clarke: oh wow!! i was not apprised of this move!! cool.
	12:25pm clarke: cool, Frank!!!! missed ya on saturday!!
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Too Many Cooks was my favorite '70s sitcom. www.youtube.com...
	12:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yo, Jack!
	12:27pm clarke: i'm pretty sure it was all of Rockpile
	12:27pm Carmichael: Heya Evan. in and out of Zoom all day. Wow, Henry Gross; hope Casey Kasem doesn't get mad in the afterlife.
	12:28pm tom from Manchester: good afternoon EFD. i enjoy your vocal reverb plate
	12:28pm Krys O.: Hooray from a Scorpio! 11/21
	12:28pm LesleyK: Hi efd and everyone!
	12:28pm clarke: mmm...plate...
	12:28pm tom from Manchester: hi Unc. Michael, Krys, all.
	12:29pm clarke: hello ya'll!!
	12:29pm G: Haven't heard this Scorpio since 71...
	12:29pm Handy Haversack: Frank, really wish we could make it on Fri., but we have had tix to a show for months now. Missing another friend's band at Otto's the same night! Hey hey, LesleyK!
	12:29pm Carmichael: Loved the movie Scorpio.
	12:29pm clarke: gregor!! it's been a WHILE!!
	12:30pm nycmusicnerd: Wow, that almost sounds like Bohemian Rhapsody. Or am I hallucinating?
	12:30pm clarke: G!!!!!
	12:30pm Carmichael: a LOT like BH.
	12:30pm steveo: i thought the same nycmn
	12:30pm Hoboken Jack: Hey boys, I'm seeing the Dictators tonight!
	12:31pm clarke: i'm sure the ref was very intentional.
	12:31pm tim from washington: I hear it, nyc.
	12:31pm Hams: everybody knows!
	12:31pm clarke: and it is hear-lucinating
	12:32pm efd: I always thought that if "Love Hurts" by Nazareth could be a big hit then that Dictators song should have been a big hit.
	12:32pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, I was down in NC last weekend. @handy, we had to drop off the bill anyway on account of Matt's arm injury, so you'll just be missing Explorer's Club. I'm probably still heading down there though.
	12:32pm nycmusicnerd: I'm always afraid of sounding stupid when I listen to FMU. I'm glad I'm not the only one who hears it. Thanks, y'all & yinz!
	12:32pm clarke: nice, Frank - a good time to hit the blue ridge!!
	12:33pm clarke: except for the overrun of bikers.
	12:33pm steveo: oh this is suzi quatro hmm, wow; the things you miss when you're a kid
	12:33pm Asheville Jon: oooh, are we gonna hear John Stewart's "Gold"?
	12:34pm Will thee Sound Guy: The organ sounds a bunch like Daniel
	12:34pm McGroovey: @nycmusicnerd Why would you sound stupid while listening to WFMU? Do you make funny whooping noises?
	12:34pm clarke: and i wasn't saying nice about the arm injury - that sux.
	12:34pm prof.fuzz: hey y'all! in the office. wurk and lurk mode activated
	12:34pm Handy Haversack: Ah, Frank -- bad news (and good for me?). Sorry to hear it! Julie has been opening every ep. of Dark Night of the Soul with Suzi Quatro this year.
	12:34pm herb.nyc: Ahhh, my coffee and Rice Krispies treats taste so much better w sEVAN inch singles!
	12:34pm clarke: FuZZZZZZ lurks!!!
	12:35pm Edgar from Maine: Wow. Had no idea this was SQ. She sounds pretty good when she's not hollering.
	12:35pm egould: Suzi Qyachtro.
	12:35pm tim from washington: nyc, no need to feel stupid. In fact, half the shows on FMU encourage stupidity. Similarly, I’d feel sheepish when I’d listen to Sheila B and half the contents of my sandwich would spill on my shirt.
	12:36pm prof.fuzz: clarkEEEEEEE burfs!!!
	12:36pm nycmusicnerd: McGroovey: I don't recognize about 75-80% of the stuff I hear when I listen to this station. Sometimes I think I know something about music, and then I tune in here (not just efd, but FMU in general) and I realize how much I don't know.
	12:36pm clarke: baaa!!!
	12:37pm annette: dont forget NRBQs DUMMY
	12:37pm Frank In Queens: DUUUUUU CAAAAANNNNNN!!!!
	12:38pm Hoboken Jack: Ah, Frank, that's a bummer! Well, I'll be there, anyway.....
	12:38pm McGroovey: I'd feel stupid listening to a radio station where I recognized everything. If I only want to hear familiar music, I'll play my own records.
	12:38pm Edgar from Maine: There's always someone here who knows about the song NYC. I can't believe how much stuff I learn here.
	12:38pm Frank In Queens: @Jack, it happens. What can you do?
	12:39pm Uncle Michael: was this single from the album Ramma Damma?
	12:39pm dale: hey now. enjoy me some dave mason from time to time. alone together and headkeeper are great albums.
	12:39pm LesleyK: Hey Handy! What are you missing on Friday?
	12:40pm McGroovey: @nycmusicnerd not knowing a record already isn't stupidity; it's an amazing discovery!
	12:40pm G: @clarke 12:30 -- I'm here, but so is the dishwasher repair guy. Here on and off lol
	12:41pm tom from Manchester: too much ramma and damma here for my liking
	12:41pm tim from washington: Here’s another one for Joe Belock’s Trifecta show!
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: Lesley: I was going to miss the Elevator Operators playing. Now apparently I'm missing only the Explorers Club. nycmn: As listener fred so aptly put it, we listen to WFMU to like what we hear, not to hear what we like.
	12:41pm dale: glad you're on the mend efd. wife and i had covid at the same time. thank god we stocked up soups and things so we didn't have to go out.
	12:42pm McGroovey: And an equally great thing about WFMU is, if you hear a record you've never heard it before, and if you hate it, you'll probably never have to hear it again anyway.
	12:42pm clarke: G - you around this week??
	12:42pm LesleyK: Gotcha Handy
	12:43pm tim from washington: efd hitting the post again!
	12:43pm WoodsOfMaine: @McGroovy: That's what my wife thinks in the middle of a Fabio show when he plays something that sounds like a malfunctioning refrigerator compressor.
	12:44pm Edgar from Maine: I hear some of the same duds more than once here but at least they're WFMU duds.
	12:44pm steveo: just tell her that it's much more interesting than a refrigerator compressor that's working properly
	12:45pm WoodsOfMaine: Ha. Good point.
	12:45pm G: @ckarke -- yep, wedding in Sewanee was last week, we are out of town for her work (Shreveport) this coming Sun/Mon, then to Los Angeles for me to give a talk late next week. But here in New Orleans till Saturday.
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: If I want to hear fridge compressors, I'll listen to Bryce.
	12:45pm clarke: check tim out -- learning!!
	12:46pm McGroovey: Conversely, the cool thing about a malfunctioning household appliance is that you can record it and send it to Fabio or Bryce, and they'll play it on the radio!
	12:46pm Will thee Sound Guy: A pinball in a paint can in a paint can shaker sounds more interesting than a smooth sewing machine
	12:46pm clarke: i might be in l.a. later this month, as well.
	12:46pm Jack McGuire: Was that the version of Don't Be a Dummy with Gary Numan on vocal, or by Msr Ducann?
	12:46pm WoodsOfMaine: What I tell her is "Look, at least it's not Jandek" P.S. I saw Angel open for Styx back in the day
	12:46pm tim from washington: clarke - Hooked On Phonics was money well spent I tell you.
	12:47pm gnarlz: thoroughly enjoying this set. i havent heard ANGEL in prob 30 years? 40?
	12:47pm prof.fuzz: re: this angel song. i just read an article about orcas extracting and eating the livers of great white sharks.
	12:47pm McGroovey: Orcas are jerks!
	12:48pm Dean: Angel, Santa Monica Civic, c.'77: a very, very loud band.
	12:48pm Cubicle Carl: This Angel single came out about the same time their guitarist Punky Meadows was immortalized by Frank Zappa.
	12:48pm clarke: and Young Rascals like you are reading on the school's dime.
	12:48pm prof.fuzz: apparently great white livers are full of protein and very tasty
	12:49pm K: Sure'd be nice to hear some William Patrice.
	12:49pm Handy Haversack: Elgin Marbles (one of Dave Mandl's bands, also with Barba Yiorgi) have a great song about Rodney.
	12:50pm JetLee: That Angel tune my be my new favorite cover of all time.
	12:50pm prof.fuzz: plot pitch for jaws iv: willy the orca negotiates release from sea world in exchange for keeping the amity beach safe for summertime swimmers...
	12:50pm clarke: ... and those pesky kids show up - mayhem ensues.
	12:50pm efd: @K don't have any, sorry!
	12:51pm Carmichael: Kitten Sparkles over on the Sheena Stream play s a lot of Bingenheimer.
	12:51pm efd: @JetLee it was the first version of that song I heard, and still my favorite!
	12:51pm Will thee Sound Guy: Gotta get back to work, keep funkin onn!!!
	12:52pm clarke: will!! l8r duuude!!
	12:52pm steveo: i think i remember this, and if i do, i probably have not heard it for 44 years
	12:52pm K: Great show as usual!!!
	12:52pm prof.fuzz: @clarke: the kids unmask the shark and it's really old man zuck from the social media company trying to monetize the beach...
	12:52pm prof.fuzz: sweet dreams will
	12:53pm prof.fuzz: OK. who has "5.7.0.5." as their PIN number?
	12:53pm clarke: and flipper saves the day, - not the band.
	12:53pm Brian C.: Must be 40 years since I've heard 5705. I can picture little clock radio, tuned into WPHD 103.3
	12:53pm Handy Haversack: PIN number? Oh, prof.fuzz.
	12:54pm efd: that was a segue that no music scheduling software would ever allow
	12:54pm tim from washington: Who told you, prof?
	12:54pm Jack McGuire: Woo. Brian P!
	12:54pm G: @clarke: I was figuring LA would work out eventually. The associated problem resolved itself, I guess!
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: You have Pinball on a 45? I have never been more envious.
	12:54pm nycmusicnerd: The beauty of free form radio!
	12:54pm clarke: city boy.
	12:55pm Figgsrock: @EFD--I'm not so sure. I have heard some crazier segues of late on a couple of the SXM channels.
	12:55pm McGroovey: I think Flipper-the-band is actually capable of saving the day, though.
	12:55pm prof.fuzz: it's an unforgettable number. i'm sure there are tons of "8675309" PINs out there.
	12:55pm clarke: @G - it appears that the climate has cleared.
	12:55pm Carmichael: My wife just this morning told me she hates "that Phaedra song". I told her she cannot hate Lee Hazlewood.
	12:55pm G: Got it lol
	12:55pm tgrace55: Never heard this song before, I dig it
	12:56pm prof.fuzz: @McG: agreed
	12:56pm TimSF: @tim from Wa: I regret not buying the "Hooked On Phonics werked for me" Tee shirt at St. Vincents in Port Orchard long time ago...
	12:56pm clarke: who told you FuZZ??
	12:56pm Carmichael: I bet no one on earth has a OU812 pin code.
	12:56pm dday: At this point in this set, Flipper the Dolphin can save the day
	12:57pm Roberto: My favorite Brian Protheroe song is the one with "sit your butt on a coconut."
	12:57pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I'm late! Hello efd and All. Loving these singles!
	12:57pm WoodsOfMaine: For a time my network pw was 12345678. Don't judge.
	12:57pm zigzagorange: My fave Protheroe- Changing My Tune
	12:57pm clarke: judging!!
	12:58pm luka: that prog show threw me for a loop because wasn't something else on the sched?
	12:58pm luka: (don't get me wrong, i love it)
	12:58pm G: @luka: Nothing can halt the power of prog lol
	12:59pm FletcherNYC: Damn. I missed Punky Meadows.
	12:59pm prof.fuzz: Lulu!
	1:00pm Handy Haversack: luka, yes, Dust on the Decks, a great folk song, field recordings type of show. DJ had family issues, though, and had to step away.
	1:02pm McGroovey: Was there ever an I81B4U pin?
	1:02pm tim from washington: TimSF - perfect in many ways!
	1:02pm vinylmonkee: Whoah... Nicko McBrain was a drummer for Stretch in the late 70s
	1:02pm Handy Haversack: But I have to say that Dave Mandl as Virgil in this Progaeneid is pretty damn great.
	1:03pm K: There's a great movie soundtrack here in this playlist. Any movie at all. Could be static shot of jello in a dish.
	1:04pm luka: @Handy oof, i was afraid a DJ might have had to drop like that. hope everything's OK.
	1:04pm efd: if I had "More More More" with me i'd have played it after that Stretch song. But I don't, for better or worse.
	1:04pm clarke: Handy - did Bagpipe get a lot of candy trick or treating??
	1:04pm McGroovey: I hope Dave M will do a show where he plays just 2 or 3 sidelong songs.
	1:04pm clarke: LRB
	1:05pm tgrace55: Haaaang on, help is on its way!
	1:05pm luka: Nicko is 70, hoping Maiden tours a little more. i missed the east coast awing last week. :(
	1:05pm Carmichael: Oh yeah, my wife is begging me to get Air Supply tix. Don't know how I feel about that ...
	1:06pm McGroovey: @Carmichael I suppose it depends on how much you like your wife. Me, I'd just say yes.
	1:07pm Handy Haversack: Apparently the Seattle show was great on this tour, luka. clarke, he ate so much freaking pumpkin on carving night. Could have carved his poops and stuck a candle in them!
	1:07pm Jack McGuire: Was hoping for a Stretch to Andrea True segue for cowbell heavan. Not today.
	1:08pm TimSF: Carm...saying goes something like "happy wife, happy life?"
	1:08pm Polyus: I kinda forget LRB was all over the radio for a long time back then. For some reason they always seemed like an unlikely band to get that big.
	1:08pm luka: @Handy the setlist looked like three songs off Senjutsu and then all the usual hits. i'm really wanting one last "classics" tour with some deep cuts from 80-88.
	1:08pm clarke: ha ha ha HAndy!!
	1:09pm Jack McGuire: Heaven. Hail Satan.
	1:09pm WoodsOfMaine: Ah, the 1970's dual guitar solo thing....
	1:10pm luka: YES
	1:10pm Carmichael: YES!!!!
	1:11pm Figgsrock: @Carmichael--I saw Air Supply pre-pandemic, tagging along with two friends of mine that were HUGE fans. I figured it would be worthy a laugh, but you know what? They were excellent. Both those guys can still hit those high notes and the band of young players they had definitely gave those ballads a little more kick.
	1:12pm Carmichael: OK, you guys convinced me. Thanks, I guess ... 😤
	1:12pm K: OK YOU READ MY MIND! So glad you included This!
	1:12pm Carmichael: New Boots and Panties!
	1:13pm K: So WBCN 1977. It's a time shift of the most amazing kind.
	1:14pm efd: @K WBCN + WBZ (FM and AM) + JB-105, the top 40 station out of Providence. That's pretty much it.
	1:14pm Pete: hah i got in trouble in 5th grade for singing sex and drugs and rock and roll
	1:14pm efd: a sprinkle of WVBF for good measure
	1:14pm Frank Zaatar: If only Ian Dury got a check every time a journalist used that phrase...
	1:15pm prudy: hello all...I believe Tavares was from Fall River...
	1:15pm K: YOU HAVE NAILED IT. Suzy Quatro, Dave Mason, Ian Drury. I smell a movie.
	1:16pm WoodsOfMaine: Was Laquidera at BCN in 77? I didn't move into listening range until 1984,
	1:16pm Susan See: A really forgotten tune but I welcome it!! Wham Bam!
	1:16pm efd: @prudy Ah, thanks! So Angel really are the pride of New Bedford!
	1:17pm Thin Slice: The very first "grown up" record I ever owned was the 7" of Hamilton Frank & Reynold's Don't Pull Your Love.
	1:17pm Figgsrock: One of the best one hit wonders of 1976. Haven't heard this in so long.
	1:17pm clarke: noo beffaaah!!
	1:17pm Fuzzy: I forgot about WVBF, like everyone has forgotten about WCOZ.
	1:17pm Kat in Chicago: CRAP I missed “Pinball” when I was in a meeting? I love “Pinball.”
	1:18pm Frank In Queens: Yeah!
	1:18pm Handy Haversack: I think efd nailed the post three times in that one!
	1:18pm clarke: geaux saints!!
	1:18pm efd: @Kat I was looking for you!
	1:18pm B R M: @Thin Slice We can only hope for a small dose of some Dennis Lambert magic....
	1:18pm JetBoy of Astoria: Good day Mr Funk and all! Way to bring on the Saints!
	1:18pm tim from washington: I love the Saints!
	1:19pm clarke: we're playin' the ravens this week, tim!
	1:20pm B R M: The Rocket From The Crypt show at Frantic City re-established my love for horns in guitar driven post-punk rock and roll.
	1:20pm clarke: (see what i did there?)
	1:20pm Carmichael: Horn rock.
	1:21pm tim from washington: I’m glad you appreciate my support, clarke.
	1:22pm JetBoy of Astoria: @B R M - that RFTC set was excellent, I agree.
	1:23pm Roberto: I'm reporting this Monks track to HR.
	1:23pm clarke: @tim - always, pal!!
	1:23pm Handy Haversack: Shouldn't monks be beyond that sort of thing?
	1:24pm Krys O.: YES! Loved this Matchbox back then. It's been a long time since I heard it.
	1:24pm Roberto: If I'm not wrong, WFMU's HR dept consists of a single screaming goat.
	1:24pm Andres: Good afternoon. The Monks! Much loved in Canada!
	1:25pm Carmichael: The director of FMU HR is the talking egg.
	1:25pm Roberto: Well, it could be a married screaming goat, what do I know.
	1:25pm DjLorraine: Omg i love you commentors and EFringeD
	1:25pm Figgsrock: YESSSSSSSSS
	1:26pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Oh dang, Bad Blood! Great choice.
	1:26pm efd: @Krys I need to put that with my WNYU-era records!
	1:27pm Thin Slice: Whatever became of this back up singer?
	1:27pm FletcherNYC: Is that Elton on backup vocals?
	1:27pm Alvy Singer: Elton John on backing vocals??
	1:27pm Krys O.: LOL!!! This Sedaka now makes me think of Eugene Levy's spot-on imitation of Neil.
	1:27pm Krys O.: @Alvy: Elton's label too.
	1:27pm efd: @Thin Slice I think he finally hung it up this year. Gave it a good run though.
	1:28pm clarke: reg
	1:28pm Carmichael: Didn't Neil Sedaka get blowed up real good??
	1:28pm clarke: also: ian anderson on flute (just kidding).
	1:29pm Krys O.: The 'Loaf!
	1:29pm RevWaldo: Remeber Neil Sedaka appearing on Wonderama,singing this song with his son(?) singing the response. The kid was terrible.
	1:29pm Carmichael: Jerry Corbetta, baby.
	1:29pm clarke: don kirshner called, he wants his phone back
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: we got some points, some lousy joints, and all the glitter we can use
	1:29pm Krys O.: I definitely recall the 'Sedaka is Back' trend.
	1:30pm Alvy Singer: @efd--Any chance Bob Welch is gonna appear in today's set?
	1:30pm clarke: hot love, cold world
	1:30pm Hopey Sockmonkey: These two songs just made me feel like I'm in junior high again.
	1:30pm ₮ⱧⱤɆɆ₥ØØ₦₴ 🌛🌝🌜: This entire set takes me back to listening to the radio while in the back seat of my folks' car as a wee one...especially that Little River Band and Neil Sedaka.....
	1:31pm efd: @Alvy oh man, I don't think I grabbed any Bob Welch this time!
	1:31pm K: Modern Lovers - Government Center.
	1:31pm ledzeppelinsucks: Drugs were invented to make this stuff sound good.
	1:31pm McGroovey: Re: The Monks: Ford later commented in Mojo magazine that "it was a bit of a problem when it was a hit."
	1:31pm Frank In Queens: The Loaf!
	1:32pm Carmichael: I remember my dad's "company car" had an FM dial. He said it was for "eggheads" ...
	1:32pm steveo: this one really makes me wonder
	1:33pm Figgsrock: Thought for a second this was going to be "Stairway to Gilligan's Island."
	1:33pm clarke: hey Frank - see any movies on your trip??
	1:34pm McGroovey: You are right about that, EFD.
	1:35pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, none while I was away. But managed to watch Son Of Frankenstein and Diary Of A Madman on Monday when I got back.
	1:35pm ledzeppelinsucks: KJR and KING in Seattle used to play this stuff.
	1:35pm clarke: not seen either!!
	1:35pm Tinley Park Randy: WCFL and WLS in Chicago too
	1:36pm clarke: do kids trick or treat in Queens?? did u get any t'n't'r's??
	1:36pm Andres: Perfectly timed talk over!
	1:37pm Dave M: Holy cow, I haven't heard that Little River Band song in centuries.
	1:37pm DjLorraine: Sharing is caring
	1:38pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, I got in around 9, but Christina said it was pretty dead. We seem to have an alternating schedule where one year is dead and the next year is crazy. Makes buying the right amount of candy to hand out a bit of a challenge.
	1:38pm Thin Slice: This song was not played on Houston radio. Or not on any station I was listening to in the 70s.
	1:38pm clarke: yeah, i didn't get any candy for the first year EVER, and no one showed, either.
	1:39pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, Son of is the 3rd installment of Frankenstein. Mel Brooks took A LOT from this one for Young Frankenstein. Diary is Vincent Price losing his mind, which is always a treat.
	1:39pm JetBoy of Astoria: Funny was just thinking of “oh well” yesterday when trying not to think of work
	1:39pm JetLee: @ Frank In Queens, Son of Frankenstein is so perfectly atmospheric!
	1:40pm clarke: another vince flick - niiiice!! yer on a kick!
	1:40pm prof.fuzz: candy beggars were plentiful in our neighborhood. they cleaned us out early in the evening. or so i'm told. i had to teach until 10 on monday night...
	1:40pm Carmichael: Bob Welch territory, anyway
	1:40pm clarke: glad to hear that, FuZZZZZZ
	1:41pm sweir: this is a great show! thank you! Rockets!!
	1:41pm clarke: @frank - my favorite vincent price: His Kind Of Woman, if you haven't yet seen it.
	1:41pm efd: good point, Carmichael - Bob Welch adjacent for sure. I think I played "Hot Love..." last year, trying to mix it up a bit this year
	1:41pm Asheville Jon: that was way better than the fleetwood mac version
	1:41pm Handy Haversack: K8 had to chase some people down on the sidewalk to give them some candy. Kids around us just go to the stores on the main street. I thought about dressing up and seeing if I could run any sort of con on the liquor store, but it seemed like a lot of work.
	1:42pm prof.fuzz: @clarkEEEEE: glad that i not only had to teach late, and that there was no candy left for me when i got home?
	1:42pm clarke: strong disagree jon.
	1:43pm HyperDose: Was talking to my Uber driver yesterday and he also noticed kids don't go out for Halloween anymore. It was pretty much a ghost town around here.
	1:43pm clarke: as opposed to the con you run on the liquor store, daily??
	1:43pm B R M: I used to live right by 5th Ave and 3rd st in Park Slope, Brooklyn, which is the terminus of the Brooklyn Halloween Parade, and I would go through $250 Halloween candy in about 15 minutes. We moved south in the Slope in 2020 and now, maybe $60 worth all night? Location is all!
	1:43pm K: Grew up on 'BCN too. The sound was the only alternative around. Freed our minds. WBZ - AM was pop too but not quite as smart. Terrific show.
	1:44pm Handy Haversack: I mean, this one would have involved a costume.
	1:44pm Asheville Jon: my kids went to several houses that the people were so happy to see people show up that they literally dumped their candy bowls into my kids' bags.
	1:44pm tim from washington: My 6 year old daughter asked about MJ last week. Now she’s a full on MJ fan. Jackson 5 in the car and Thriller on the record player at home.
	1:44pm Frank Zaatar: Way to drain the humor and subtlety out of a perfectly good Peter Green song. Oh well, great show anyway @efd.
	1:44pm HyperDose: I guess kids can look up online where all the good candy spots are now
	1:45pm clarke: new orleans has a kid's crawl that is pretty popular
	1:45pm efd: @K thanks, I appreciate that!
	1:46pm TimSF: @HyperDose: funny. those houses that give little packets of baby carrots...well, not many trick or treaters.
	1:46pm clarke: orange food!!
	1:47pm Carmichael: I watched soccer mom vans pull up on my street, and kids jumping out and running everywhere. Definitely pre-meditated.
	1:47pm Frank In Queens: @JetLee, I hadn't seen it before. It gets shortshafted, I think, because it's not quite as good as the original or Bride. But it was a thoroughly enjoyable monster movie. Lugosi is great in it as well!
	1:47pm Handy Haversack: Seemed like the crazy rumor was that people were putting fentanyl in candy? I ask you: who has ever had enough drugs to just give them away to strangers?
	1:48pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, haven't seen that one. Will add it to the list!
	1:48pm efd: speaking of crazy rumors....
	1:48pm Frank In Queens: Oh shit, The Beatles!
	1:48pm clarke: ha ha ha ha
	1:48pm WoodsOfMaine: Oh Well: Joe Jackson did a great version of it on the Laughter & Lust tour -> www.youtube.com...
	1:49pm Carmichael: The Canadian Beatles.
	1:49pm Frank In Queens: @Handy, not to mention that kids are notoriously short on funds. You gotta buy them everything! What kind of drug dealer wants to attract customers who can't pay?!
	1:49pm KevinfromBayRidge: Macca Lurks here!
	1:50pm efd: that snare/handclap part is one of my favorite bits of recorded music ever
	1:50pm observer: Big time. Had to double check the track listing.
	1:50pm clarke: this show makes me want a fresca!!
	1:50pm HyperDose: @TimSF I'd rather go to a house that gives out king sized carrots. Heck, give me a bag!
	1:51pm Rick from SC: I am of that age.
	1:51pm Handy Haversack: For reals, Frank. It's like the crazy rumor industry doesn't even get capitalism.
	1:51pm clarke: funny carrots are my 'new' treat as well
	1:51pm McGroovey: I♥️Klaatu
	1:51pm Handy Haversack: Alice Cooper! We're not worthy!
	1:52pm tim from washington: This year we were invited to trick or treat in an affluent neighborhood where my partner’s friend lives. There were a number of houses with a basket of Candy and a sign that said to take just one piece and that you were on camera. Compare that to last year we went trick or treating in our not so affluent neighborhood and the kids were given handfuls of candy. Damn fat cats!
	1:52pm Kat in Chicago: This is Alice Cooper??
	1:52pm tom from Manchester: fun stuff today
	1:53pm McGroovey: Maurice Escargot
	1:53pm efd: @Kat it is!
	1:53pm clarke: well, at least they left something. and the baskets were still there, when you got there. they wouldn't be here.
	1:53pm tim from washington: I just listened to Muscle Of Love right before I turned on efd!
	1:53pm Handy Haversack: (I seem to be the only one who remembers Wayne's World, but I don't care. I'm going to keep saying that when AC is played on WFMU as long as there's breath in my body!) (Party on, everyone. Party on forever!)
	1:53pm TimSF: @Hyperdose and clarke: hate to break it to you but "baby carrots" are just big carrots whittled down to look like baby carrots. Imposters.
	1:54pm clarke: holy muscle of love!
	1:54pm Frank In Queens: @Kat, this is what happens when you let Bob Ezrin run wild in the late 70s.
	1:54pm clarke: say it ain't so, TimSF!!
	1:54pm HyperDose: But that chlorinated water they're bathed in is addicting, Tim!
	1:54pm ike-o: @handy if you label me, you negate me
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: Did Alice lose a bet?
	1:55pm clarke: a golf bet.
	1:55pm Thin Slice: Is this from a star is born?
	1:55pm Uncle Michael: This is a Star Is Born track? Kris was portraying a character...other than Kris....
	1:56pm tim from washington: Uncle Michael - I think there was lots of alcohol involved. Literally.
	1:56pm steveo: just saw a tuftie out back!
	1:56pm Uncle Michael: Had no idea this was a single!
	1:56pm efd: yes, from A Star Is Born
	1:56pm Carmichael: Ha ha, Kristofferson ROCKS?! Makes no sense. He's more a gnarled country western semi-sober haggard.
	1:56pm ₮ⱧⱤɆɆ₥ØØ₦₴ 🌛🌝🌜: Ugh gotta hop on a meeting, hope to be back soon.
	1:56pm Kat in Chicago: @Frank in Queens - plausible explanation
	1:56pm Handy Haversack: Exactly, ike-o.
	1:56pm efd: re the Coop, that song was on the same album as "You And Me," a pretty big soft rock IIRC
	1:56pm tom from Manchester: you've heard of Kris Kristofferson? well i'm Piss Pissedofferson
	1:57pm Thin Slice: That movie has the worst audience foley ever recorded
	1:57pm Rich in Washington: sorta enjoying listening to Alice Cooper's lost era records now.
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: Only Ears Bleed
	1:57pm Carmichael: @Handy, I saw Wayne & Garth in the crowd at the Browns/Bengals Halloween game.
	1:58pm tim from washington: Flush The Fashion, Rich!
	1:58pm WoodsOfMaine: The Watch Closely Now scene is all I remember from that movie. Might be time to revisit.
	1:59pm Handy Haversack: I wonder if they took in an NHL game, too, Carmichael.
	1:59pm Frank In Queens: @Handy, there were at last night's loss to the Isles ;)
	2:00pm Uncle Michael: When efd plays a single I didn't know existed, it doesn't have to be good to be fascinating.
	2:01pm efd: I admit I play this almost every year (maybe actually every year?) because I love to do the station ID over the intro
	2:01pm clarke: are the Isles improved this season, Frank?
	2:01pm Uncle Michael: the burnette cousins!
	2:01pm Handy Haversack: You deserve the treat, efd! Sounded great!
	2:02pm Figgsrock: I thought "Tired" was a 1980 song? or did it just take that long to become a Top 40 hit?
	2:02pm Roberto: towin' the lion
	2:02pm clarke: how can toein' be that tiring??
	2:02pm Carmichael: Wow, I sadly remember this song ...
	2:03pm efd: @Figgsrock the record says 1979. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
	2:03pm steveo: this isn't gary u.s. bonds? oh, the sands of time
	2:03pm tim from washington: efd - have Tommy James drag the line after this song since Rocky is tired of toeing’ the line.
	2:03pm Carmichael: "Toe the line" meets ready to fight. he's tired of fighting.
	2:03pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, seemingly, but it's still too early to know for sure. But they're 6-4 to start November, so I'll take it!
	2:03pm clarke: i don't think so.
	2:04pm Carmichael: *means
	2:04pm efd: @tim I had a different line in mind
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: Carmichael, Rocky's dad boxed, yes?
	2:04pm tom from Manchester: which line is it in "Hold the Line"
	2:04pm Carmichael: No idea, UM.
	2:05pm Hopey Sockmonkey: This Heatwave is such a jam.
	2:05pm Figgsrock: @EFD--I have done some research and it came out in the U.K. first in 1979, so that works for me!
	2:05pm clarke: yes, it is early Frank - just didn't know if there was marked improvement.
	2:05pm Handy Haversack: Freaks and Geeks alert!
	2:05pm Uncle Michael: Both Johnny and Dorsey Burnette were boxers and musicians. (Rocky and Billy's dads).
	2:05pm tim from washington: Much better choice, efd!
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: this segues nicely into Boogie Nights...just sayin'.
	2:06pm TimSF: @Handy: great show
	2:06pm clarke: roto-toms unite!!
	2:07pm Rich in Washington: yeah, this whole show is conjuring up tons of memories of listening to late 70s rock radio.
	2:08pm Hoboken Jack: Toe the line means to follow the rules, accept authority. The single was recorded in 79 and released in May 1980. Rocky's dad was singer Johnny Burnette.
	2:08pm Kat in Chicago: Groove Line is a single I definitely had, still might?
	2:09pm clarke: i think it just means putting one's toe on a piece of rope.
	2:10pm clarke: 1980 is part of the seventies, anyhoo!!
	2:10pm Carmichael: "The scratch was the line marked across the ring in early 'toe-to-toe' boxing bouts. Anyone man enough to enter into such a contest was 'up to scratch' (see also: start from scratch). This version of the phrase was known in the USA by the early 19th century, for example, this piece from the Gettysburg newspaper The Peoples Press, from October 1835, in which the public was invited to put up or shut up in a wager about an election: Come gentlemen "toe the scratch" or hereafter forever hold your peace."
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: "hold your piece" PEDANTRY!
	2:11pm Kat in Chicago: I don’t remember “You and Me.” Which is probably good.
	2:12pm clarke: i think dog WAS a donut!!
	2:12pm johnk77: excellent show today lrb was great live in 1979 in non-wfmu news amazon music entire library now included for prime members https://www.theverge.com/2022/11/1/23433585/amazon-music-prime-subscribers-library-songs-podcasts
	2:12pm McGroovey: My wife is a big Cat Stevens fan, but I don't think she has this record
	2:13pm efd: did not notice there was a thin crack (line?) in this record, sorry about that!
	2:13pm WoodsOfMaine: During a promo for the show Medium Rare on the local community station here WERU, she has this song playing and mentions its by Cat Stevens. "Yes, _that_ Cat Stevens."
	2:14pm TimSF: ever had a Goo Goo Cluster? good candy.
	2:15pm clarke: better than 'baby' carrots!
	2:16pm Carmichael: I get some Airplane/Starship vibe from this song.
	2:16pm listener james from westwood: Whomst among us hasn't picked up the odd crackle and pop since the 1970s? (Mostly in my knees.)
	2:16pm TimSF: clarke: yes. Southern confection. somebody says it stands for Grand Ole Opry?
	2:17pm WoodsOfMaine: @listener james from westwood: add "snap" to that as well
	2:17pm clarke: i know that tune!!! (more sean penn)
	2:21pm Thin Slice: Think these guys listened to Thin Lizzy?
	2:21pm Carmichael: Jim Capaldi had a cafe?!
	2:23pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: Thanks efd Deaf School!!!
	2:23pm clarke: they called it capaldi's.
	2:24pm clarke: andy pratt!!
	2:24pm efd: Andy Pratt's own version of this is also very good, but I don't have it as a single
	2:25pm clarke: i've got that, somewhere...
	2:25pm Kat in Chicago: I like Pratt’s better but this is good too
	2:26pm artbrau: So it’s a single but you don’t have the 45 it doesn’t count? Just trying to understand the rules.
	2:26pm clarke: isn't russ ballard on this?? think so.
	2:26pm Susan See: I second Pratt’s version. The original.
	2:27pm tim from washington: I’ve got to split. Thanks efd! Super fun show today!
	2:27pm efd: @artbrau I'm only playing actual 7" records
	2:27pm efd: weirdly I think I have the Pratt version as a 12"... ??
	2:27pm clarke: tim-o!! later man!
	2:28pm efd: keeping the piano-centric singles going
	2:28pm efd: thanks tim!
	2:28pm Figgsrock: Oh, I bet there are a couple of dramatic edits in the 7" version of this Al Stewart.
	2:28pm Roberto: In my household. every year is the Year of the Cat.
	2:28pm clarke: damn, i love this song - and the live performance for television is exquisite.
	2:29pm listener james from westwood: Adore this Stewart!
	2:29pm Carmichael: Al Stewart, very cool. Was this around the time he was backed by Shot in the Dark?
	2:30pm clarke: i think some of the guys from Shot In The Dark are on that tv performance.
	2:30pm efd: shockingly (to me) I've never played this on Singles Going Seventies before!
	2:31pm clarke: i'm a big fan of the string arrangement on this!
	2:31pm Hughie Considine: One of the great fancy-pants guitar solos of an era that loved its fancy-pants solos!
	2:31pm Jack McGuire: Alan Parsons production.
	2:31pm JetBoy of Astoria: @Roberto - right on! Actually it was National Cat Day a few days ago
	2:32pm clarke: hello hugh!
	2:32pm Carmichael: Peter White and Tim Renwick were on guitars here.
	2:32pm johnk77: the al stewart single went to #4pop us very well-regarded within the 1976 california entertainment industry
	2:32pm clarke: and good work, that!
	2:32pm kptcal: Just reading 'Twentieth Century Boy" by Duncan Hannah; a diary of a very specific experience of music and art in NYC in the 70s. Not much cross-over from the music he talks about.
	2:32pm ledzeppelinsucks: Should have skipped the sax solo.
	2:33pm WoodsOfMaine: Dregs!!!!
	2:33pm Carmichael: I was guessing Mel Collins on sax, but it was actually Phil Kenzie.
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: Is it ok that I used love the album this Dregs track is from?
	2:33pm Hughie Considine: hey Clarke! Huge fan of Year of the Cat. Always brings me back. I actually have the Mobile Fidelity Lab edition. Does it sound sumptuous? Yes it does.
	2:34pm clarke: i was dubious about that sax, but kenzie NAILS it live!!
	2:34pm Carmichael: I saw Stewart about 10 times. Once, he opened with an acoustic version of Arnold Layne.
	2:34pm Hughie Considine: I think the sax solo is warranted in this case - it's so embedded in the arrangement.
	2:35pm WoodsOfMaine: @Uncle Michael: I listened to both that and Night of the Living Dregs many, many, many times...!
	2:35pm clarke: ATL - handy!! ha ha ha.
	2:36pm ledzeppelinsucks: A not flexible record story. A college football coach tried to get his team fired up by waving a record of the opponents fight song. He screamed we are going to destroy them then tried to destroy the record and it wouldn't break. He was banging it, prying it on lockers, between the toilet seat, jumping on it and his moment was ruined by the sturdy vinyl.
	2:37pm clarke: i saw al stewart once, and it was just he and alun davies on acoustics. neat show, tho.
	2:38pm Stephen from Glasgow: Take It Off The Top was the theme to The Friday Rock Show on BBC Radio 1 when I was a youngster.
	2:38pm Handy Haversack: What happened? I had stepped away (stupid work). Are we going to Atlanta?
	2:38pm clarke: EFD was playin' some Dixie Dregs, ha ha ha.
	2:40pm Hughie Considine: OMG. The Tymes! EFD, you just lifted me higher!
	2:40pm clarke: also have this single - b-side, i believe is the dub version??
	2:40pm Krys O.: Yay! Dooby-dooby-dooby....
	2:40pm Handy Haversack: I grew up with lots of Dixie dregs around ...
	2:40pm Hughie Considine: Yes suh!
	2:41pm morphe': "1976 " 12th February The Sex Pistols open for Eddie & the Hot Rods at the Marquee. It's the band's first public London date. Under a headline, "Don't look over your shoulder but the Sex Pistols are coming", http://www.rockmine.com/Pistols/SexDates.html
	2:41pm clarke: i believe that. they were godawful.
	2:42pm clarke: yesss!!!
	2:43pm Krys O.: Steve J. Morse (born July 28, 1954) is an American guitarist, best known as the founder of the Dixie Dregs and as the lead guitarist of Deep Purple from 1994 to 2022. Morse has also enjoyed a successful solo career and was briefly a member of the group Kansas in the mid-1980s. Most recently, Morse became a member of the supergroup Flying Colors.[2]
	2:43pm clarke: quite the find, here!!
	2:45pm clarke: they sure didn't know anything!!
	2:46pm Roberto: I'm not big on KISS, but this shreds.
	2:46pm Imgur: Oh man, this bass line!
	2:46pm Cubicle Carl: Kiss and Angel in one show. Give me back my teenage bedroom, EFD!
	2:46pm Figgsrock: I think this was one of the KISS songs that Wurster put on a mix called "You Wanted the Best...But You Got KISS" that he gave us after staying at his house while on tour.
	2:47pm clarke: and an assortment of shasta soft-drinks!!
	2:47pm Carmichael: I learned about the Dixie Dregs (and many other bands) when I left my sheltered life for the military. never knew any of these bands existed; kinda like finding FMU 30 years ago.
	2:47pm slocker: Yeah disco KISS is such a disaster on paper, but it's SO undeniable.
	2:47pm Faux Jean: O Kiss!
	2:47pm Daybreak, just Daybreak: Never been a KISS fan, but this caught my ears! Hell yes!!!
	2:48pm McGroovey: This Kiss song sounds good to me now, but it sure wasn't what teenage-me (a big Kiss fan a few years earlier) wanted to hear in 1979.
	2:48pm Karl Ward: EFD rollin hard
	2:48pm ₮ⱧⱤɆɆ₥ØØ₦₴ 🌛🌝🌜: Aaah, crap, missed KISS during my meeting...gah.
	2:48pm Roberto: See my comment above, Daybreak!
	2:48pm Krys O.: Golly, was just looking up Gary Valentine's literary career writing about the occult and fascism. en.wikipedia.org...
	2:48pm Alvy Singer: Paul Stanley has been known to teach lead rhythm guitar classes out in LA.
	2:49pm WoodsOfMaine: I still have a couple of the Kiss Army sponges dropped from the ceiling at a show on the Dynasty tour in Cleveland.
	2:49pm Carmichael: Some Utopia would fit in real good here ...
	2:49pm Traie: Best KISS track hands down

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from November 2, 2022

View efd's profile

Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

<-- Previous playlist | Back to The Evan "Funk" Davies Show playlists | Next playlist -->

Upcoming events:

Wed. Nov 6th, Noon - 3pm: The Metal District III: Kicked Out Of The Hellraiser! (More info...)
EFD’s hair-metal-loving cousin Evan “Snake” Davies was dying to return to the airwaves in October after a four-year absence. However, this request was vetoed over concerns that his appearance might have had a deleterious effect on our Hellraiser efforts. He’s back today, though, spinning his favorite ‘80s (mostly) hard rock and hair metal just for you. Don’t (or maybe do) miss it!

	12:19pm Uncle Michael: We can rescue EFD...we can dig down parallel to the well and get him out!
	12:19pm tim from washington: clarke - yeah it is. I was fortunate to have a friend loan it to me. Try Interlibrary Loan through your local library if they don’t have it. That’s what I’ve done to read other Hozac books.
	12:19pm Hoboken Jack: Hello EFD, Will, Clarke, Will Clark, happy birthday Clarke!, McGroove, Handy, when's your bday Bagpipe, everybody!
	12:20pm Edgar from Maine: Just throw some autotuned music into the pit with him and that'll force him out.
	12:20pm Jack McGuire: Sadly, Loose Joints' "Pop Your Funk" was a tardy 1980 release.
	12:20pm tim from washington: clarke - yeah it is. I was fortunate to have a friend loan it to me. Try Interlibrary Loan through your local library if they don’t have it. That’s what I’ve done to read other Hozac books.

	12:23pm Krys O.: Hi, Jack!
	12:23pm WoodsOfMaine: @clarke: You ever read Susan Orlean's The Library Book? The kinda sad story about the LA library system.
	12:23pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Hoboken Jack!

	12:30pm clarke: G!!!!!
	12:30pm Carmichael: a LOT like BH.
	12:30pm steveo: i thought the same nycmn
	12:30pm Hoboken Jack: Hey boys, I'm seeing the Dictators tonight!
	12:31pm clarke: i'm sure the ref was very intentional.
	12:31pm tim from washington: I hear it, nyc.
	12:31pm Hams: everybody knows!
	12:31pm clarke: and it is hear-lucinating
	12:32pm efd: I always thought that if "Love Hurts" by Nazareth could be a big hit then that Dictators song should have been a big hit.
	12:32pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, I was down in NC last weekend. @handy, we had to drop off the bill anyway on account of Matt's arm injury, so you'll just be missing Explorer's Club. I'm probably still heading down there though.
	12:32pm nycmusicnerd: I'm always afraid of sounding stupid when I listen to FMU. I'm glad I'm not the only one who hears it. Thanks, y'all & yinz!
	12:32pm clarke: nice, Frank - a good time to hit the blue ridge!!
	12:33pm clarke: except for the overrun of bikers.
	12:33pm steveo: oh this is suzi quatro hmm, wow; the things you miss when you're a kid
	12:33pm Asheville Jon: oooh, are we gonna hear John Stewart's "Gold"?
	12:34pm Will thee Sound Guy: The organ sounds a bunch like Daniel
	12:34pm McGroovey: @nycmusicnerd Why would you sound stupid while listening to WFMU? Do you make funny whooping noises?
	12:34pm clarke: and i wasn't saying nice about the arm injury - that sux.
	12:34pm prof.fuzz: hey y'all! in the office. wurk and lurk mode activated
	12:34pm Handy Haversack: Ah, Frank -- bad news (and good for me?). Sorry to hear it! Julie has been opening every ep. of Dark Night of the Soul with Suzi Quatro this year.
	12:34pm herb.nyc: Ahhh, my coffee and Rice Krispies treats taste so much better w sEVAN inch singles!
	12:34pm clarke: FuZZZZZZ lurks!!!
	12:35pm Edgar from Maine: Wow. Had no idea this was SQ. She sounds pretty good when she's not hollering.
	12:35pm egould: Suzi Qyachtro.
	12:35pm tim from washington: nyc, no need to feel stupid. In fact, half the shows on FMU encourage stupidity. Similarly, I’d feel sheepish when I’d listen to Sheila B and half the contents of my sandwich would spill on my shirt.
	12:36pm prof.fuzz: clarkEEEEEEE burfs!!!
	12:36pm nycmusicnerd: McGroovey: I don't recognize about 75-80% of the stuff I hear when I listen to this station. Sometimes I think I know something about music, and then I tune in here (not just efd, but FMU in general) and I realize how much I don't know.
	12:36pm clarke: baaa!!!
	12:37pm annette: dont forget NRBQs DUMMY
	12:37pm Frank In Queens: DUUUUUU CAAAAANNNNNN!!!!
	12:38pm Hoboken Jack: Ah, Frank, that's a bummer! Well, I'll be there, anyway.....
	12:38pm McGroovey: I'd feel stupid listening to a radio station where I recognized everything. If I only want to hear familiar music, I'll play my own records.
	12:38pm Edgar from Maine: There's always someone here who knows about the song NYC. I can't believe how much stuff I learn here.
	12:38pm Frank In Queens: @Jack, it happens. What can you do?
	12:39pm Uncle Michael: was this single from the album Ramma Damma?
	12:39pm dale: hey now. enjoy me some dave mason from time to time. alone together and headkeeper are great albums.
	12:39pm LesleyK: Hey Handy! What are you missing on Friday?
	12:40pm McGroovey: @nycmusicnerd not knowing a record already isn't stupidity; it's an amazing discovery!
	12:40pm G: @clarke 12:30 -- I'm here, but so is the dishwasher repair guy. Here on and off lol
	12:41pm tom from Manchester: too much ramma and damma here for my liking
	12:41pm tim from washington: Here’s another one for Joe Belock’s Trifecta show!
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: Lesley: I was going to miss the Elevator Operators playing. Now apparently I'm missing only the Explorers Club. nycmn: As listener fred so aptly put it, we listen to WFMU to like what we hear, not to hear what we like.
	12:41pm dale: glad you're on the mend efd. wife and i had covid at the same time. thank god we stocked up soups and things so we didn't have to go out.
	12:42pm McGroovey: And an equally great thing about WFMU is, if you hear a record you've never heard it before, and if you hate it, you'll probably never have to hear it again anyway.
	12:42pm clarke: G - you around this week??
	12:42pm LesleyK: Gotcha Handy
	12:43pm tim from washington: efd hitting the post again!
	12:43pm WoodsOfMaine: @McGroovy: That's what my wife thinks in the middle of a Fabio show when he plays something that sounds like a malfunctioning refrigerator compressor.
	12:44pm Edgar from Maine: I hear some of the same duds more than once here but at least they're WFMU duds.
	12:44pm steveo: just tell her that it's much more interesting than a refrigerator compressor that's working properly
	12:45pm WoodsOfMaine: Ha. Good point.
	12:45pm G: @ckarke -- yep, wedding in Sewanee was last week, we are out of town for her work (Shreveport) this coming Sun/Mon, then to Los Angeles for me to give a talk late next week. But here in New Orleans till Saturday.
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: If I want to hear fridge compressors, I'll listen to Bryce.
	12:45pm clarke: check tim out -- learning!!
	12:46pm McGroovey: Conversely, the cool thing about a malfunctioning household appliance is that you can record it and send it to Fabio or Bryce, and they'll play it on the radio!
	12:46pm Will thee Sound Guy: A pinball in a paint can in a paint can shaker sounds more interesting than a smooth sewing machine
	12:46pm clarke: i might be in l.a. later this month, as well.
	12:46pm Jack McGuire: Was that the version of Don't Be a Dummy with Gary Numan on vocal, or by Msr Ducann?
	12:46pm WoodsOfMaine: What I tell her is "Look, at least it's not Jandek" P.S. I saw Angel open for Styx back in the day
	12:46pm tim from washington: clarke - Hooked On Phonics was money well spent I tell you.
	12:47pm gnarlz: thoroughly enjoying this set. i havent heard ANGEL in prob 30 years? 40?
	12:47pm prof.fuzz: re: this angel song. i just read an article about orcas extracting and eating the livers of great white sharks.
	12:47pm McGroovey: Orcas are jerks!
	12:48pm Dean: Angel, Santa Monica Civic, c.'77: a very, very loud band.
	12:48pm Cubicle Carl: This Angel single came out about the same time their guitarist Punky Meadows was immortalized by Frank Zappa.
	12:48pm clarke: and Young Rascals like you are reading on the school's dime.
	12:48pm prof.fuzz: apparently great white livers are full of protein and very tasty
	12:49pm K: Sure'd be nice to hear some William Patrice.
	12:49pm Handy Haversack: Elgin Marbles (one of Dave Mandl's bands, also with Barba Yiorgi) have a great song about Rodney.
	12:50pm JetLee: That Angel tune my be my new favorite cover of all time.
	12:50pm prof.fuzz: plot pitch for jaws iv: willy the orca negotiates release from sea world in exchange for keeping the amity beach safe for summertime swimmers...
	12:50pm clarke: ... and those pesky kids show up - mayhem ensues.
	12:50pm efd: @K don't have any, sorry!
	12:51pm Carmichael: Kitten Sparkles over on the Sheena Stream play s a lot of Bingenheimer.
	12:51pm efd: @JetLee it was the first version of that song I heard, and still my favorite!
	12:51pm Will thee Sound Guy: Gotta get back to work, keep funkin onn!!!
	12:52pm clarke: will!! l8r duuude!!
	12:52pm steveo: i think i remember this, and if i do, i probably have not heard it for 44 years
	12:52pm K: Great show as usual!!!
	12:52pm prof.fuzz: @clarke: the kids unmask the shark and it's really old man zuck from the social media company trying to monetize the beach...
	12:52pm prof.fuzz: sweet dreams will
	12:53pm prof.fuzz: OK. who has "5.7.0.5." as their PIN number?
	12:53pm clarke: and flipper saves the day, - not the band.
	12:53pm Brian C.: Must be 40 years since I've heard 5705. I can picture little clock radio, tuned into WPHD 103.3
	12:53pm Handy Haversack: PIN number? Oh, prof.fuzz.
	12:54pm efd: that was a segue that no music scheduling software would ever allow
	12:54pm tim from washington: Who told you, prof?
	12:54pm Jack McGuire: Woo. Brian P!
	12:54pm G: @clarke: I was figuring LA would work out eventually. The associated problem resolved itself, I guess!
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: You have Pinball on a 45? I have never been more envious.
	12:54pm nycmusicnerd: The beauty of free form radio!
	12:54pm clarke: city boy.
	12:55pm Figgsrock: @EFD--I'm not so sure. I have heard some crazier segues of late on a couple of the SXM channels.
	12:55pm McGroovey: I think Flipper-the-band is actually capable of saving the day, though.
	12:55pm prof.fuzz: it's an unforgettable number. i'm sure there are tons of "8675309" PINs out there.
	12:55pm clarke: @G - it appears that the climate has cleared.
	12:55pm Carmichael: My wife just this morning told me she hates "that Phaedra song". I told her she cannot hate Lee Hazlewood.
	12:55pm G: Got it lol
	12:55pm tgrace55: Never heard this song before, I dig it
	12:56pm prof.fuzz: @McG: agreed
	12:56pm TimSF: @tim from Wa: I regret not buying the "Hooked On Phonics werked for me" Tee shirt at St. Vincents in Port Orchard long time ago...
	12:56pm clarke: who told you FuZZ??
	12:56pm Carmichael: I bet no one on earth has a OU812 pin code.
	12:56pm dday: At this point in this set, Flipper the Dolphin can save the day
	12:57pm Roberto: My favorite Brian Protheroe song is the one with "sit your butt on a coconut."
	12:57pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I'm late! Hello efd and All. Loving these singles!
	12:57pm WoodsOfMaine: For a time my network pw was 12345678. Don't judge.
	12:57pm zigzagorange: My fave Protheroe- Changing My Tune
	12:57pm clarke: judging!!
	12:58pm luka: that prog show threw me for a loop because wasn't something else on the sched?
	12:58pm luka: (don't get me wrong, i love it)
	12:58pm G: @luka: Nothing can halt the power of prog lol
	12:59pm FletcherNYC: Damn. I missed Punky Meadows.
	12:59pm prof.fuzz: Lulu!
	1:00pm Handy Haversack: luka, yes, Dust on the Decks, a great folk song, field recordings type of show. DJ had family issues, though, and had to step away.
	1:02pm McGroovey: Was there ever an I81B4U pin?
	1:02pm tim from washington: TimSF - perfect in many ways!
	1:02pm vinylmonkee: Whoah... Nicko McBrain was a drummer for Stretch in the late 70s
	1:02pm Handy Haversack: But I have to say that Dave Mandl as Virgil in this Progaeneid is pretty damn great.
	1:03pm K: There's a great movie soundtrack here in this playlist. Any movie at all. Could be static shot of jello in a dish.
	1:04pm luka: @Handy oof, i was afraid a DJ might have had to drop like that. hope everything's OK.
	1:04pm efd: if I had "More More More" with me i'd have played it after that Stretch song. But I don't, for better or worse.
	1:04pm clarke: Handy - did Bagpipe get a lot of candy trick or treating??
	1:04pm McGroovey: I hope Dave M will do a show where he plays just 2 or 3 sidelong songs.
	1:04pm clarke: LRB
	1:05pm tgrace55: Haaaang on, help is on its way!
	1:05pm luka: Nicko is 70, hoping Maiden tours a little more. i missed the east coast awing last week. :(
	1:05pm Carmichael: Oh yeah, my wife is begging me to get Air Supply tix. Don't know how I feel about that ...
	1:06pm McGroovey: @Carmichael I suppose it depends on how much you like your wife. Me, I'd just say yes.
	1:07pm Handy Haversack: Apparently the Seattle show was great on this tour, luka. clarke, he ate so much freaking pumpkin on carving night. Could have carved his poops and stuck a candle in them!
	1:07pm Jack McGuire: Was hoping for a Stretch to Andrea True segue for cowbell heavan. Not today.
	1:08pm TimSF: Carm...saying goes something like "happy wife, happy life?"
	1:08pm Polyus: I kinda forget LRB was all over the radio for a long time back then. For some reason they always seemed like an unlikely band to get that big.
	1:08pm luka: @Handy the setlist looked like three songs off Senjutsu and then all the usual hits. i'm really wanting one last "classics" tour with some deep cuts from 80-88.
	1:08pm clarke: ha ha ha HAndy!!
	1:09pm Jack McGuire: Heaven. Hail Satan.
	1:09pm WoodsOfMaine: Ah, the 1970's dual guitar solo thing....
	1:10pm luka: YES
	1:10pm Carmichael: YES!!!!
	1:11pm Figgsrock: @Carmichael--I saw Air Supply pre-pandemic, tagging along with two friends of mine that were HUGE fans. I figured it would be worthy a laugh, but you know what? They were excellent. Both those guys can still hit those high notes and the band of young players they had definitely gave those ballads a little more kick.
	1:12pm Carmichael: OK, you guys convinced me. Thanks, I guess ... 😤
	1:12pm K: OK YOU READ MY MIND! So glad you included This!
	1:12pm Carmichael: New Boots and Panties!
	1:13pm K: So WBCN 1977. It's a time shift of the most amazing kind.
	1:14pm efd: @K WBCN + WBZ (FM and AM) + JB-105, the top 40 station out of Providence. That's pretty much it.
	1:14pm Pete: hah i got in trouble in 5th grade for singing sex and drugs and rock and roll
	1:14pm efd: a sprinkle of WVBF for good measure
	1:14pm Frank Zaatar: If only Ian Dury got a check every time a journalist used that phrase...
	1:15pm prudy: hello all...I believe Tavares was from Fall River...
	1:15pm K: YOU HAVE NAILED IT. Suzy Quatro, Dave Mason, Ian Drury. I smell a movie.
	1:16pm WoodsOfMaine: Was Laquidera at BCN in 77? I didn't move into listening range until 1984,
	1:16pm Susan See: A really forgotten tune but I welcome it!! Wham Bam!
	1:16pm efd: @prudy Ah, thanks! So Angel really are the pride of New Bedford!
	1:17pm Thin Slice: The very first "grown up" record I ever owned was the 7" of Hamilton Frank & Reynold's Don't Pull Your Love.
	1:17pm Figgsrock: One of the best one hit wonders of 1976. Haven't heard this in so long.
	1:17pm clarke: noo beffaaah!!
	1:17pm Fuzzy: I forgot about WVBF, like everyone has forgotten about WCOZ.
	1:17pm Kat in Chicago: CRAP I missed “Pinball” when I was in a meeting? I love “Pinball.”
	1:18pm Frank In Queens: Yeah!
	1:18pm Handy Haversack: I think efd nailed the post three times in that one!
	1:18pm clarke: geaux saints!!
	1:18pm efd: @Kat I was looking for you!
	1:18pm B R M: @Thin Slice We can only hope for a small dose of some Dennis Lambert magic....
	1:18pm JetBoy of Astoria: Good day Mr Funk and all! Way to bring on the Saints!
	1:18pm tim from washington: I love the Saints!
	1:19pm clarke: we're playin' the ravens this week, tim!
	1:20pm B R M: The Rocket From The Crypt show at Frantic City re-established my love for horns in guitar driven post-punk rock and roll.
	1:20pm clarke: (see what i did there?)
	1:20pm Carmichael: Horn rock.
	1:21pm tim from washington: I’m glad you appreciate my support, clarke.
	1:22pm JetBoy of Astoria: @B R M - that RFTC set was excellent, I agree.
	1:23pm Roberto: I'm reporting this Monks track to HR.
	1:23pm clarke: @tim - always, pal!!
	1:23pm Handy Haversack: Shouldn't monks be beyond that sort of thing?
	1:24pm Krys O.: YES! Loved this Matchbox back then. It's been a long time since I heard it.
	1:24pm Roberto: If I'm not wrong, WFMU's HR dept consists of a single screaming goat.
	1:24pm Andres: Good afternoon. The Monks! Much loved in Canada!
	1:25pm Carmichael: The director of FMU HR is the talking egg.
	1:25pm Roberto: Well, it could be a married screaming goat, what do I know.
	1:25pm DjLorraine: Omg i love you commentors and EFringeD
	1:25pm Figgsrock: YESSSSSSSSS
	1:26pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Oh dang, Bad Blood! Great choice.
	1:26pm efd: @Krys I need to put that with my WNYU-era records!
	1:27pm Thin Slice: Whatever became of this back up singer?
	1:27pm FletcherNYC: Is that Elton on backup vocals?
	1:27pm Alvy Singer: Elton John on backing vocals??
	1:27pm Krys O.: LOL!!! This Sedaka now makes me think of Eugene Levy's spot-on imitation of Neil.
	1:27pm Krys O.: @Alvy: Elton's label too.
	1:27pm efd: @Thin Slice I think he finally hung it up this year. Gave it a good run though.
	1:28pm clarke: reg
	1:28pm Carmichael: Didn't Neil Sedaka get blowed up real good??
	1:28pm clarke: also: ian anderson on flute (just kidding).
	1:29pm Krys O.: The 'Loaf!
	1:29pm RevWaldo: Remeber Neil Sedaka appearing on Wonderama,singing this song with his son(?) singing the response. The kid was terrible.
	1:29pm Carmichael: Jerry Corbetta, baby.
	1:29pm clarke: don kirshner called, he wants his phone back
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: we got some points, some lousy joints, and all the glitter we can use
	1:29pm Krys O.: I definitely recall the 'Sedaka is Back' trend.
	1:30pm Alvy Singer: @efd--Any chance Bob Welch is gonna appear in today's set?
	1:30pm clarke: hot love, cold world
	1:30pm Hopey Sockmonkey: These two songs just made me feel like I'm in junior high again.
	1:30pm ₮ⱧⱤɆɆ₥ØØ₦₴ 🌛🌝🌜: This entire set takes me back to listening to the radio while in the back seat of my folks' car as a wee one...especially that Little River Band and Neil Sedaka.....
	1:31pm efd: @Alvy oh man, I don't think I grabbed any Bob Welch this time!
	1:31pm K: Modern Lovers - Government Center.
	1:31pm ledzeppelinsucks: Drugs were invented to make this stuff sound good.
	1:31pm McGroovey: Re: The Monks: Ford later commented in Mojo magazine that "it was a bit of a problem when it was a hit."
	1:31pm Frank In Queens: The Loaf!
	1:32pm Carmichael: I remember my dad's "company car" had an FM dial. He said it was for "eggheads" ...
	1:32pm steveo: this one really makes me wonder
	1:33pm Figgsrock: Thought for a second this was going to be "Stairway to Gilligan's Island."
	1:33pm clarke: hey Frank - see any movies on your trip??
	1:34pm McGroovey: You are right about that, EFD.
	1:35pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, none while I was away. But managed to watch Son Of Frankenstein and Diary Of A Madman on Monday when I got back.
	1:35pm ledzeppelinsucks: KJR and KING in Seattle used to play this stuff.
	1:35pm clarke: not seen either!!
	1:35pm Tinley Park Randy: WCFL and WLS in Chicago too
	1:36pm clarke: do kids trick or treat in Queens?? did u get any t'n't'r's??
	1:36pm Andres: Perfectly timed talk over!
	1:37pm Dave M: Holy cow, I haven't heard that Little River Band song in centuries.
	1:37pm DjLorraine: Sharing is caring
	1:38pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, I got in around 9, but Christina said it was pretty dead. We seem to have an alternating schedule where one year is dead and the next year is crazy. Makes buying the right amount of candy to hand out a bit of a challenge.
	1:38pm Thin Slice: This song was not played on Houston radio. Or not on any station I was listening to in the 70s.
	1:38pm clarke: yeah, i didn't get any candy for the first year EVER, and no one showed, either.
	1:39pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, Son of is the 3rd installment of Frankenstein. Mel Brooks took A LOT from this one for Young Frankenstein. Diary is Vincent Price losing his mind, which is always a treat.
	1:39pm JetBoy of Astoria: Funny was just thinking of “oh well” yesterday when trying not to think of work
	1:39pm JetLee: @ Frank In Queens, Son of Frankenstein is so perfectly atmospheric!
	1:40pm clarke: another vince flick - niiiice!! yer on a kick!
	1:40pm prof.fuzz: candy beggars were plentiful in our neighborhood. they cleaned us out early in the evening. or so i'm told. i had to teach until 10 on monday night...
	1:40pm Carmichael: Bob Welch territory, anyway
	1:40pm clarke: glad to hear that, FuZZZZZZ
	1:41pm sweir: this is a great show! thank you! Rockets!!
	1:41pm clarke: @frank - my favorite vincent price: His Kind Of Woman, if you haven't yet seen it.
	1:41pm efd: good point, Carmichael - Bob Welch adjacent for sure. I think I played "Hot Love..." last year, trying to mix it up a bit this year
	1:41pm Asheville Jon: that was way better than the fleetwood mac version
	1:41pm Handy Haversack: K8 had to chase some people down on the sidewalk to give them some candy. Kids around us just go to the stores on the main street. I thought about dressing up and seeing if I could run any sort of con on the liquor store, but it seemed like a lot of work.
	1:42pm prof.fuzz: @clarkEEEEE: glad that i not only had to teach late, and that there was no candy left for me when i got home?
	1:42pm clarke: strong disagree jon.
	1:43pm HyperDose: Was talking to my Uber driver yesterday and he also noticed kids don't go out for Halloween anymore. It was pretty much a ghost town around here.
	1:43pm clarke: as opposed to the con you run on the liquor store, daily??
	1:43pm B R M: I used to live right by 5th Ave and 3rd st in Park Slope, Brooklyn, which is the terminus of the Brooklyn Halloween Parade, and I would go through $250 Halloween candy in about 15 minutes. We moved south in the Slope in 2020 and now, maybe $60 worth all night? Location is all!
	1:43pm K: Grew up on 'BCN too. The sound was the only alternative around. Freed our minds. WBZ - AM was pop too but not quite as smart. Terrific show.
	1:44pm Handy Haversack: I mean, this one would have involved a costume.
	1:44pm Asheville Jon: my kids went to several houses that the people were so happy to see people show up that they literally dumped their candy bowls into my kids' bags.
	1:44pm tim from washington: My 6 year old daughter asked about MJ last week. Now she’s a full on MJ fan. Jackson 5 in the car and Thriller on the record player at home.
	1:44pm Frank Zaatar: Way to drain the humor and subtlety out of a perfectly good Peter Green song. Oh well, great show anyway @efd.
	1:44pm HyperDose: I guess kids can look up online where all the good candy spots are now
	1:45pm clarke: new orleans has a kid's crawl that is pretty popular
	1:45pm efd: @K thanks, I appreciate that!
	1:46pm TimSF: @HyperDose: funny. those houses that give little packets of baby carrots...well, not many trick or treaters.
	1:46pm clarke: orange food!!
	1:47pm Carmichael: I watched soccer mom vans pull up on my street, and kids jumping out and running everywhere. Definitely pre-meditated.
	1:47pm Frank In Queens: @JetLee, I hadn't seen it before. It gets shortshafted, I think, because it's not quite as good as the original or Bride. But it was a thoroughly enjoyable monster movie. Lugosi is great in it as well!
	1:47pm Handy Haversack: Seemed like the crazy rumor was that people were putting fentanyl in candy? I ask you: who has ever had enough drugs to just give them away to strangers?
	1:48pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, haven't seen that one. Will add it to the list!
	1:48pm efd: speaking of crazy rumors....
	1:48pm Frank In Queens: Oh shit, The Beatles!
	1:48pm clarke: ha ha ha ha
	1:48pm WoodsOfMaine: Oh Well: Joe Jackson did a great version of it on the Laughter & Lust tour -> www.youtube.com...
	1:49pm Carmichael: The Canadian Beatles.
	1:49pm Frank In Queens: @Handy, not to mention that kids are notoriously short on funds. You gotta buy them everything! What kind of drug dealer wants to attract customers who can't pay?!
	1:49pm KevinfromBayRidge: Macca Lurks here!
	1:50pm efd: that snare/handclap part is one of my favorite bits of recorded music ever
	1:50pm observer: Big time. Had to double check the track listing.
	1:50pm clarke: this show makes me want a fresca!!
	1:50pm HyperDose: @TimSF I'd rather go to a house that gives out king sized carrots. Heck, give me a bag!
	1:51pm Rick from SC: I am of that age.
	1:51pm Handy Haversack: For reals, Frank. It's like the crazy rumor industry doesn't even get capitalism.
	1:51pm clarke: funny carrots are my 'new' treat as well
	1:51pm McGroovey: I♥️Klaatu
	1:51pm Handy Haversack: Alice Cooper! We're not worthy!
	1:52pm tim from washington: This year we were invited to trick or treat in an affluent neighborhood where my partner’s friend lives. There were a number of houses with a basket of Candy and a sign that said to take just one piece and that you were on camera. Compare that to last year we went trick or treating in our not so affluent neighborhood and the kids were given handfuls of candy. Damn fat cats!
	1:52pm Kat in Chicago: This is Alice Cooper??
	1:52pm tom from Manchester: fun stuff today
	1:53pm McGroovey: Maurice Escargot
	1:53pm efd: @Kat it is!
	1:53pm clarke: well, at least they left something. and the baskets were still there, when you got there. they wouldn't be here.
	1:53pm tim from washington: I just listened to Muscle Of Love right before I turned on efd!
	1:53pm Handy Haversack: (I seem to be the only one who remembers Wayne's World, but I don't care. I'm going to keep saying that when AC is played on WFMU as long as there's breath in my body!) (Party on, everyone. Party on forever!)
	1:53pm TimSF: @Hyperdose and clarke: hate to break it to you but "baby carrots" are just big carrots whittled down to look like baby carrots. Imposters.
	1:54pm clarke: holy muscle of love!
	1:54pm Frank In Queens: @Kat, this is what happens when you let Bob Ezrin run wild in the late 70s.
	1:54pm clarke: say it ain't so, TimSF!!
	1:54pm HyperDose: But that chlorinated water they're bathed in is addicting, Tim!
	1:54pm ike-o: @handy if you label me, you negate me
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: Did Alice lose a bet?
	1:55pm clarke: a golf bet.
	1:55pm Thin Slice: Is this from a star is born?
	1:55pm Uncle Michael: This is a Star Is Born track? Kris was portraying a character...other than Kris....
	1:56pm tim from washington: Uncle Michael - I think there was lots of alcohol involved. Literally.
	1:56pm steveo: just saw a tuftie out back!
	1:56pm Uncle Michael: Had no idea this was a single!
	1:56pm efd: yes, from A Star Is Born
	1:56pm Carmichael: Ha ha, Kristofferson ROCKS?! Makes no sense. He's more a gnarled country western semi-sober haggard.
	1:56pm ₮ⱧⱤɆɆ₥ØØ₦₴ 🌛🌝🌜: Ugh gotta hop on a meeting, hope to be back soon.
	1:56pm Kat in Chicago: @Frank in Queens - plausible explanation
	1:56pm Handy Haversack: Exactly, ike-o.
	1:56pm efd: re the Coop, that song was on the same album as "You And Me," a pretty big soft rock IIRC
	1:56pm tom from Manchester: you've heard of Kris Kristofferson? well i'm Piss Pissedofferson
	1:57pm Thin Slice: That movie has the worst audience foley ever recorded
	1:57pm Rich in Washington: sorta enjoying listening to Alice Cooper's lost era records now.
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: Only Ears Bleed
	1:57pm Carmichael: @Handy, I saw Wayne & Garth in the crowd at the Browns/Bengals Halloween game.
	1:58pm tim from washington: Flush The Fashion, Rich!
	1:58pm WoodsOfMaine: The Watch Closely Now scene is all I remember from that movie. Might be time to revisit.
	1:59pm Handy Haversack: I wonder if they took in an NHL game, too, Carmichael.
	1:59pm Frank In Queens: @Handy, there were at last night's loss to the Isles ;)
	2:00pm Uncle Michael: When efd plays a single I didn't know existed, it doesn't have to be good to be fascinating.
	2:01pm efd: I admit I play this almost every year (maybe actually every year?) because I love to do the station ID over the intro
	2:01pm clarke: are the Isles improved this season, Frank?
	2:01pm Uncle Michael: the burnette cousins!
	2:01pm Handy Haversack: You deserve the treat, efd! Sounded great!
	2:02pm Figgsrock: I thought "Tired" was a 1980 song? or did it just take that long to become a Top 40 hit?
	2:02pm Roberto: towin' the lion
	2:02pm clarke: how can toein' be that tiring??
	2:02pm Carmichael: Wow, I sadly remember this song ...
	2:03pm efd: @Figgsrock the record says 1979. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
	2:03pm steveo: this isn't gary u.s. bonds? oh, the sands of time
	2:03pm tim from washington: efd - have Tommy James drag the line after this song since Rocky is tired of toeing’ the line.
	2:03pm Carmichael: "Toe the line" meets ready to fight. he's tired of fighting.
	2:03pm Frank In Queens: @clarke, seemingly, but it's still too early to know for sure. But they're 6-4 to start November, so I'll take it!
	2:03pm clarke: i don't think so.
	2:04pm Carmichael: *means
	2:04pm efd: @tim I had a different line in mind
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: Carmichael, Rocky's dad boxed, yes?
	2:04pm tom from Manchester: which line is it in "Hold the Line"
	2:04pm Carmichael: No idea, UM.
	2:05pm Hopey Sockmonkey: This Heatwave is such a jam.
	2:05pm Figgsrock: @EFD--I have done some research and it came out in the U.K. first in 1979, so that works for me!
	2:05pm clarke: yes, it is early Frank - just didn't know if there was marked improvement.
	2:05pm Handy Haversack: Freaks and Geeks alert!
	2:05pm Uncle Michael: Both Johnny and Dorsey Burnette were boxers and musicians. (Rocky and Billy's dads).
	2:05pm tim from washington: Much better choice, efd!
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: this segues nicely into Boogie Nights...just sayin'.
	2:06pm TimSF: @Handy: great show
	2:06pm clarke: roto-toms unite!!
	2:07pm Rich in Washington: yeah, this whole show is conjuring up tons of memories of listening to late 70s rock radio.
	2:08pm Hoboken Jack: Toe the line means to follow the rules, accept authority. The single was recorded in 79 and released in May 1980. Rocky's dad was singer Johnny Burnette.
	2:08pm Kat in Chicago: Groove Line is a single I definitely had, still might?
	2:09pm clarke: i think it just means putting one's toe on a piece of rope.
	2:10pm clarke: 1980 is part of the seventies, anyhoo!!
	2:10pm Carmichael: "The scratch was the line marked across the ring in early 'toe-to-toe' boxing bouts. Anyone man enough to enter into such a contest was 'up to scratch' (see also: start from scratch). This version of the phrase was known in the USA by the early 19th century, for example, this piece from the Gettysburg newspaper The Peoples Press, from October 1835, in which the public was invited to put up or shut up in a wager about an election: Come gentlemen "toe the scratch" or hereafter forever hold your peace."
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: "hold your piece" PEDANTRY!
	2:11pm Kat in Chicago: I don’t remember “You and Me.” Which is probably good.
	2:12pm clarke: i think dog WAS a donut!!
	2:12pm johnk77: excellent show today lrb was great live in 1979 in non-wfmu news amazon music entire library now included for prime members https://www.theverge.com/2022/11/1/23433585/amazon-music-prime-subscribers-library-songs-podcasts
	2:12pm McGroovey: My wife is a big Cat Stevens fan, but I don't think she has this record
	2:13pm efd: did not notice there was a thin crack (line?) in this record, sorry about that!
	2:13pm WoodsOfMaine: During a promo for the show Medium Rare on the local community station here WERU, she has this song playing and mentions its by Cat Stevens. "Yes, _that_ Cat Stevens."
	2:14pm TimSF: ever had a Goo Goo Cluster? good candy.
	2:15pm clarke: better than 'baby' carrots!
	2:16pm Carmichael: I get some Airplane/Starship vibe from this song.
	2:16pm listener james from westwood: Whomst among us hasn't picked up the odd crackle and pop since the 1970s? (Mostly in my knees.)
	2:16pm TimSF: clarke: yes. Southern confection. somebody says it stands for Grand Ole Opry?
	2:17pm WoodsOfMaine: @listener james from westwood: add "snap" to that as well
	2:17pm clarke: i know that tune!!! (more sean penn)
	2:21pm Thin Slice: Think these guys listened to Thin Lizzy?
	2:21pm Carmichael: Jim Capaldi had a cafe?!
	2:23pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: Thanks efd Deaf School!!!
	2:23pm clarke: they called it capaldi's.
	2:24pm clarke: andy pratt!!
	2:24pm efd: Andy Pratt's own version of this is also very good, but I don't have it as a single
	2:25pm clarke: i've got that, somewhere...
	2:25pm Kat in Chicago: I like Pratt’s better but this is good too
	2:26pm artbrau: So it’s a single but you don’t have the 45 it doesn’t count? Just trying to understand the rules.
	2:26pm clarke: isn't russ ballard on this?? think so.
	2:26pm Susan See: I second Pratt’s version. The original.
	2:27pm tim from washington: I’ve got to split. Thanks efd! Super fun show today!
	2:27pm efd: @artbrau I'm only playing actual 7" records
	2:27pm efd: weirdly I think I have the Pratt version as a 12"... ??
	2:27pm clarke: tim-o!! later man!
	2:28pm efd: keeping the piano-centric singles going
	2:28pm efd: thanks tim!
	2:28pm Figgsrock: Oh, I bet there are a couple of dramatic edits in the 7" version of this Al Stewart.
	2:28pm Roberto: In my household. every year is the Year of the Cat.
	2:28pm clarke: damn, i love this song - and the live performance for television is exquisite.
	2:29pm listener james from westwood: Adore this Stewart!
	2:29pm Carmichael: Al Stewart, very cool. Was this around the time he was backed by Shot in the Dark?
	2:30pm clarke: i think some of the guys from Shot In The Dark are on that tv performance.
	2:30pm efd: shockingly (to me) I've never played this on Singles Going Seventies before!
	2:31pm clarke: i'm a big fan of the string arrangement on this!
	2:31pm Hughie Considine: One of the great fancy-pants guitar solos of an era that loved its fancy-pants solos!
	2:31pm Jack McGuire: Alan Parsons production.
	2:31pm JetBoy of Astoria: @Roberto - right on! Actually it was National Cat Day a few days ago
	2:32pm clarke: hello hugh!
	2:32pm Carmichael: Peter White and Tim Renwick were on guitars here.
	2:32pm johnk77: the al stewart single went to #4pop us very well-regarded within the 1976 california entertainment industry
	2:32pm clarke: and good work, that!
	2:32pm kptcal: Just reading 'Twentieth Century Boy" by Duncan Hannah; a diary of a very specific experience of music and art in NYC in the 70s. Not much cross-over from the music he talks about.
	2:32pm ledzeppelinsucks: Should have skipped the sax solo.
	2:33pm WoodsOfMaine: Dregs!!!!
	2:33pm Carmichael: I was guessing Mel Collins on sax, but it was actually Phil Kenzie.
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: Is it ok that I used love the album this Dregs track is from?
	2:33pm Hughie Considine: hey Clarke! Huge fan of Year of the Cat. Always brings me back. I actually have the Mobile Fidelity Lab edition. Does it sound sumptuous? Yes it does.
	2:34pm clarke: i was dubious about that sax, but kenzie NAILS it live!!
	2:34pm Carmichael: I saw Stewart about 10 times. Once, he opened with an acoustic version of Arnold Layne.
	2:34pm Hughie Considine: I think the sax solo is warranted in this case - it's so embedded in the arrangement.
	2:35pm WoodsOfMaine: @Uncle Michael: I listened to both that and Night of the Living Dregs many, many, many times...!
	2:35pm clarke: ATL - handy!! ha ha ha.
	2:36pm ledzeppelinsucks: A not flexible record story. A college football coach tried to get his team fired up by waving a record of the opponents fight song. He screamed we are going to destroy them then tried to destroy the record and it wouldn't break. He was banging it, prying it on lockers, between the toilet seat, jumping on it and his moment was ruined by the sturdy vinyl.
	2:37pm clarke: i saw al stewart once, and it was just he and alun davies on acoustics. neat show, tho.
	2:38pm Stephen from Glasgow: Take It Off The Top was the theme to The Friday Rock Show on BBC Radio 1 when I was a youngster.
	2:38pm Handy Haversack: What happened? I had stepped away (stupid work). Are we going to Atlanta?
	2:38pm clarke: EFD was playin' some Dixie Dregs, ha ha ha.
	2:40pm Hughie Considine: OMG. The Tymes! EFD, you just lifted me higher!
	2:40pm clarke: also have this single - b-side, i believe is the dub version??
	2:40pm Krys O.: Yay! Dooby-dooby-dooby....
	2:40pm Handy Haversack: I grew up with lots of Dixie dregs around ...
	2:40pm Hughie Considine: Yes suh!
	2:41pm morphe': "1976 " 12th February The Sex Pistols open for Eddie & the Hot Rods at the Marquee. It's the band's first public London date. Under a headline, "Don't look over your shoulder but the Sex Pistols are coming", http://www.rockmine.com/Pistols/SexDates.html
	2:41pm clarke: i believe that. they were godawful.
	2:42pm clarke: yesss!!!
	2:43pm Krys O.: Steve J. Morse (born July 28, 1954) is an American guitarist, best known as the founder of the Dixie Dregs and as the lead guitarist of Deep Purple from 1994 to 2022. Morse has also enjoyed a successful solo career and was briefly a member of the group Kansas in the mid-1980s. Most recently, Morse became a member of the supergroup Flying Colors.[2]

	2:46pm Imgur: Oh man, this bass line!
	2:46pm Cubicle Carl: Kiss and Angel in one show. Give me back my teenage bedroom, EFD!
	2:46pm Figgsrock: I think this was one of the KISS songs that Wurster put on a mix called "You Wanted the Best...But You Got KISS" that he gave us after staying at his house while on tour.
	2:47pm clarke: and an assortment of shasta soft-drinks!!
	2:47pm Carmichael: I learned about the Dixie Dregs (and many other bands) when I left my sheltered life for the military. never knew any of these bands existed; kinda like finding FMU 30 years ago.
	2:47pm slocker: Yeah disco KISS is such a disaster on paper, but it's SO undeniable.
	2:47pm Faux Jean: O Kiss!
	2:47pm Daybreak, just Daybreak: Never been a KISS fan, but this caught my ears! Hell yes!!!
	2:48pm McGroovey: This Kiss song sounds good to me now, but it sure wasn't what teenage-me (a big Kiss fan a few years earlier) wanted to hear in 1979.
	2:48pm Karl Ward: EFD rollin hard
	2:48pm ₮ⱧⱤɆɆ₥ØØ₦₴ 🌛🌝🌜: Aaah, crap, missed KISS during my meeting...gah.

	2:53pm johnk77: most bands played in the back
	2:53pm clarke: pablo honey.
	2:54pm Carmichael: Oh good Lord, Pablo Cruise. They were the quintessential SoCal band of the 70s. They played every beach and festival for about 10 years, until everyone got tired of them.
	2:54pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, efd! We went all singly together! Later on, pals.
	2:54pm Cubicle Carl: @WoodOfMaine I left my 8-track on my yacht.
