	7:11pm Ciggy: Mr. Stein made his most successful signing while hospitalized for a heart condition in 1982. Madonna Ciccone, a young singer and dancer, was beginning to attract industry attention for a demo tape of a song she had written called “Everybody.” Fearing competition from other labels, Mr. Stein summoned her to his bedside at Lenox Hill Hospital. “Just tell me what I have to do to get a record deal in this town,” she said (using saltier language), according to Mr. Stein’s book. “Don’t worry,” he assured her. “You’ve got a deal.” Mr. Stein signed Madonna to a $45,000 contract for three singles, with an option for an album, and Sire released “Everybody” that fall. Madonna went on to sell more than 64 million albums in the United States alone, according to the Recording Industry Association of America. Source: NY Times Obituary 4/2/23

	8:19pm ModnikBri: ↳ Bruce S. @8:18 Same here! Until yesterday, I just started scratching the surface of his ‘60s career!
	8:19pm patrick321: Seymour talking about King takes me back—I don't know if it was the 85 or 86 New Music Seminar, I know you were there, Monica. It was the one at the New York Hilton (the last one). I was the host in the Seminar penthouse, where James Brown came up for breakfast each day, and also did interviews in the afternoons. The late Frank Callari was with me in th penthouse and he had some King singles that Mr. Brown signed for him.
	8:21pm ModnikBri: ↳ patrick321 @8:19 Way cool!
	8:21pm Candy-O'67: That's very cool, Patrick? So, you met James Brown?
	8:22pm Candy-O'67: Didn't mean that first ? That was supposed to be !

	👻 8:26pm doctorjazz: And the back up ("...down, down")
	8:26pm patrick321: Was it 84? I'm sure you're right. My copy of Unity is signed by Bam and JB. I met Seymour at the closing party
	8:27pm Monica: On behalf of myself and Mr C, Would like to express HUGE gratitude to Doug Schulkind for making this re-broadcast possible here on Give The Drummer Stream possible.

	8:29pm Mr C: Gratitude to Doug!
	8:31pm patrick321: ↳ Candy-O'67 @8:21 Candy-O yes I actually spent a lot of time with his entourage in the afternoons—they told a few stories and I was just all ears. It was really a thrill.

	8:44pm Mr C: Perfect!
	8:44pm Uncle Michael: Hi Monica. Hi, Mr. C. Hello everyone.
	8:45pm patrick321: SS seemed to say (gently) of Black Magic Woman "yeah Santana the famous one but this is the good one."
	8:45pm Mr C: Magic Mike Goin' to Kansas City and get a taste of the Golden Spur wine..
	8:47pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Mr C @8:45 Are you quoting a song or telling me you'll be out this way?

	8:55pm Monica: Hey there, Jeff ad DL in LA - and thx!
	👻 8:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" What do you think the chances of an instrumental with a yodeling break are now of becoming a hit?
	8:55pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" imagine being the copyist working on this sheet music
	8:56pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" The Dutch Masters
	8:56pm nnaavvaall: This is a fascinating story. Kudos to Monica and Mr. C. So much fun!
	8:56pm patrick321: ↳ doctorjazz @8:55 The odds weren't good then either, especially with the elf singing
	8:56pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Ciggy @8:56 Yes!!
	👻 8:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ Dano59 @8:55 Hahahaha!
	8:57pm Uncle Michael: I love the Popeye break.
	8:57pm Monica: much appreciated, nnaavvaall! Seymour is truly the gift that keeps on giving. Jewels galore.
	8:57pm tranewreck: I’m transfixed
	8:58pm Candy-O'67: ↳ doctorjazz @8:56 Without the elf and yodeling, it's cool music!😄
	8:58pm patrick321: ↳ Uncle Michael @8:57 Was it Popeye? That's what I meant by "elf singing"
	👻 8:58pm doctorjazz: And some Roland Kirk sounding flute, tore out all the stops!
	8:58pm Uncle Michael: Popeye the Elf.
	8:58pm Monica: likewise, tranewreck!
	8:58pm Bruce S.: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" gee it's great to hear this again thanks
	👻 8:58pm doctorjazz: (not to mention drum breaks out of Wipe Out, accordian, I'm exhausted...)
	8:58pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" ...vague memories of this getting fairly regular airplay on the radio in Montreal when I was a kid...quite the nostalgic blast...
	8:59pm Uncle Michael: Just love that this is NOT the hit single edit. Go long!
	8:59pm Max D: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" Have any of you seen their appearance on The Midnight Special when they were given only 4 minutes to do this, so they just did it at double speed?
	8:59pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" Big airplay on WNEW-FM
	8:59pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @8:58 I remember it from when I was a kid in the South, too. We probably lived in either Oklahoma or Houston been it was popular
	9:00pm Candy-O'67: *when it was popular
	9:00pm Monica: Welcome, Max D!
	👻 9:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ Ciggy @8:59 I remember it from there too.
	9:00pm Dano59: ↳ Ciggy @8:59 big FM rock hit everywere, as i recall. still the most ridiculous thing ever, and still mesmerizing
	9:01pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Max D @8:59 Sounds fantastic, Max!
	9:02pm Bruce S.: Frankenstein by Edgar Winter was an instrumental hit at around the same time as Hocus Pocus
	9:03pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Bruce S. @9:02 That's another great one
	👻 9:03pm doctorjazz: The Silkie hit on the Beatles tune!
	9:03pm ModnikBri: Dad- “Why are you listening to Yoko?” Me- “It’s not Yoko, it’s Silkie!”
	9:03pm patrick321: ↳ Dano59 @9:00 I think you nailed it, Dano
	9:03pm Candy-O'67: ↳ ModnikBri @9:03 Haha!
	9:04pm patrick321: ↳ ModnikBri @9:03 Haha that's brilliant
	9:04pm Monica: Seymour had big ears as evidenced by the breadth of his signings over many generations.
	👻 9:05pm doctorjazz: ↳ Monica @9:04 The variety of styles/acts is amazing!
	9:05pm nnaavvaall: ↳ ModnikBri @9:03 I like that, Bri... educate dad.
	9:05pm Dano59: Dick and Dee Dee?
	9:05pm Mr C: His appetite for music and song was infinite..

	9:06pm ModnikBri: ↳ nnaavvaall @9:05 Thank you!
	9:07pm patrick321: ↳ Monica @9:04 Absolutely. I was really only aware of his artists of the 80s, but apparently he had a hand many of the records I loved/liked/bought from about 1972 on.
	9:08pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Song: "Blue Turns to Grey" by "Cliff Richards & The Shad... Somebody played this on WAKE & BAKE- I know it
	👻 9:08pm doctorjazz: Focus on the Midnight Special...www.youtube.com...
	9:10pm Jessie: I think Seymour said Greg Shaw. The Bomp Greg Shaw?
	9:11pm Uncle Michael: I love that Paleys/Ramones record.
	9:11pm Bruce S.: Monica, Mr. C, this show is more then classic, it's Monumental
	9:12pm Monica: ↳ Jessie @9:10 yes!
	9:12pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "SEYMOUR SPEAKS" Jeffrey Lewis knows the score on that one (The History of Punk on New York's Lower East Side)
	9:13pm Mr C: Thank you Bruce It is, only for Seymour!
	9:14pm ModnikBri: As I like to say, Punk has it’s roots in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest with Bands like The Sonics and The Kingsmen
	9:14pm Ciggy: Reminded of the Peter Lynch theory of investing (sort of) - Look around you - see what you like. There maybe an investment that will give you a considerable rate of return. So, Seymour looked in the Bowery. Viola.
	9:15pm Monica: hi, PaulRobeson1923! and yes, thx Bruce S.! Only wish we'd had a chance to do a whole series of shows with Seymour. What a teacher and appreciator.
	9:15pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Song: "Shake Some Action" by "Flamin' Groovies" Could I ever tire of hearing this song... absolutely not!!!
	9:15pm Bruce S.: ↳ Song: "Shake Some Action" by "Flamin' Groovies" man I feel so good I'm gonna plotz in a minute

	9:15pm patrick321: ↳ Bruce S. @9:11 It's like finding a documentary that no one else knows about.
	9:15pm Jessie: ↳ Song: "Shake Some Action" by "Flamin' Groovies" Why in the hell wasn't this song a MAJOR hit in the States?
	9:15pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @9:15 Same here!!

	9:16pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Bruce S. @9:15 Had to look up "plotz"...always learning!!!
	9:17pm Dano59: ↳ ModnikBri @9:16 David Fair talks in the 1/2 Japanese doc about seeing them at their school dances.
	9:17pm ModnikBri: I’m a little late to the flamin’ groovies, discovered this song through the clueless soundtrack in middle school, learned that most of the songs on that soundtrack were covers
	9:17pm ModnikBri: ↳ Dano59 @9:17 Cool!
	9:18pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ patrick321 @9:16 ;-)
	👻 9:18pm doctorjazz: Hey Ho, Let's Go!
	9:18pm ModnikBri: Sadly it’s also where I first heard All the young dudes. Not the Mott the hoople version but World Party’s version
	9:19pm Dano59: ↳ ModnikBri @9:17 better late than never. groovies were a little under the radar here in upstate NY, and their earlier Roy Loney era was even more of a mystery.
	9:19pm ModnikBri: My dad would sing All the young dudes and I was like, how did you know this song from clueless? He was like, it came out when I was a teengaer’
	👻 9:19pm doctorjazz: Still could use some catch yup on The Flamin' Groovies.

	9:20pm Bruce S.: the music you played through out the show really makes one feel the excitement of these different musical eras
	9:20pm Candy-O'67: ↳ ModnikBri @9:17 I found out about them when I lived in SoCal and saw a reformed version of them out there in the early 2000's. Saw them in LA
	9:20pm ModnikBri: ↳ Dano59 @9:19 I love the Groovies! Nobody ever talks about them where I’m from
	9:20pm patrick321: ↳ ModnikBri @9:17 Modnik I don't know how to find it but there's video of them playing at Monty Hall
	9:20pm ModnikBri: ↳ patrick321 @9:20 Wow!

	9:39pm coelacanth∅: hi patrick! Bri!
	9:39pm jmd: I hope this show never ends. it's been so terrific listening to the stories and the music. Great show, thanks Monica.
	9:39pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Jeff Golick @9:37 Agree...M's late life position on far too many matters are anything but charming...but that doesn't take away from the tunes of the time...
	9:40pm ModnikBri: Morrissey Played on my 16th birthday in Detroit, I wanted to go just so he could pull Me onstage and sing “unhappy birthday.” I never got to see him but I did get the Cd of The Queen is dead
	9:40pm Mr C: Chrissie Hynde and the Preterders, crazy as it may seem, are one of the most underrated Sire classic era artists..
	9:41pm Mr C: The Pretenders!!
	9:41pm Monica: jmd - thx from me and mr c!
	9:41pm Candy-O'67: ↳ ModnikBri @9:40 Sorry you didn't get to see him. I never have seen him or The Smiths live either
	9:41pm patrick321: ↳ Mr C @9:40 Mr C I think they were so great people took it for granted.
	9:41pm ModnikBri: Ahh this song used to be one of my favorites! Got me through rough times
	9:41pm ModnikBri: ↳ Candy-O'67 @9:41 It’s ok!
	9:42pm Max D: Wow, this show has been so enlightening! I knew nothing of Seymour before learning of his passing last week. What a great person and an outstanding career! Thank you for sharing this gem with us.
	9:42pm Mr C: Maybe you're right there Patrick..
	9:42pm Candy-O'67: ↳ ModnikBri @9:41 I loved it, too
	9:43pm Monica: ↳ Max D @9:42 thx or the appreciation. seymour was a GREAT record man.
	9:43pm Jessie: Two personal favorites on Sire are the Tuff Darts and DMZ.
	9:43pm ModnikBri: I knew he was the man behind most of these bands, but I didn’t know he went wayy back to the ‘50s! I know him through his 70s/80s because New wave/Punk is one of My fave genres
	9:43pm ModnikBri: ↳ Jessie @9:43 Heck yeah DMZ!
	9:43pm Dano59: ↳ Jeff Golick @9:37 Johnny Marr is still the man ... I never quite got the cult of Morrissey.
	9:44pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Jessie @9:43 Love them both, too!!
	9:44pm ModnikBri: ↳ Dano59 @9:43 Lol same. Me and My friend used to joke about Morrissey and called him one of my wall boyfriends and Morussy
	9:45pm ModnikBri: Echo!
	9:45pm Max D: ↳ ModnikBri @9:43 One of the two best shows of my life was seeing Talking Heads on their Speaking in Tongues tour, which became immortalized in Jonathan Demme's Stop Making Sense.
	9:46pm ModnikBri: ↳ Max D @9:45 I’ve always wanted to see that Documentary!
	9:46pm Bruce S.: I think the Smiths are still an underrated band, they had such a great sound they should be played more often
	9:46pm Max D: ↳ ModnikBri @9:46 Oh you must!
	9:46pm Dano59: ↳ Max D @9:45 David Byrne's American Utopia shows were absolutely amazing ..
	9:47pm Max D: ↳ Dano59 @9:46 I heard that from a friend who saw the show.
	9:47pm ModnikBri: I’ve seen The talking Heads South Bank show, it got me deeper into them
	9:47pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Dano59 @9:46 & David road his bike to and from each performance
	9:48pm ModnikBri: DEPCHE MODE and my fave song of theirs!
	9:48pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "All That Jazz" by "Echo & the Bunnymen" My Absolute Favorite track of Echo & The Bunnymen
	9:48pm ModnikBri: ↳ Ciggy @9:48 Cool! It was a first time hearing that one for me
	9:49pm Dano59: Tom Tom Cllub also had a bit of FMU play in Seymour's honor. I needed the reminder of their joy and greatness too.
	9:49pm coelacanth∅: i've said since the 80s i wish the smiths had gotten a good singer... an extraordinary band and morressy was an excellent lyricist but an abominable singer! never mind about his politics/sociopolitics i probably agree with him on much of it (but i really don't know - or care) but he's an egomaniac!
	9:49pm ModnikBri: ↳ Dano59 @9:49 Yes!! They’re so good!
	9:49pm Candy-O'67: ↳ ModnikBri @9:48 I used to love this one, too. I got into them in my college years in the late '80's
	9:50pm patrick321: ↳ ModnikBri @9:48 "Do It Clean" from the same LP is another gem from Echo&
	9:50pm Ciggy: ↳ patrick321 @9:50 Great album
	9:50pm ModnikBri: ↳ Candy-O'67 @9:49 Nice! I got into them around 6th-7th grade. First band to get me into new wave
	9:50pm Van Winkle ;-): Depeche Mode aussi!!! What favourite tunes and artists didn't he have connections to!?!
	9:51pm Jessie: Sire Records soundtracked the lives of a lot of the youth of this world. Bless you Seymour.
	9:51pm Dano59: We used to have 2 DJs in town do battles for the college kids ... The Smiths v. The Cure was a repeat favorite. I always was in the Cure corner. Stevie Wonder v. Michael Jackson was another fave.
	9:52pm ModnikBri: ↳ Jessie @9:51 Yes! Certainly the soundtrack to mine
	9:52pm patrick321: ↳ Ciggy @9:50 ...and here we are
	9:52pm Monica: Want to thank you all for hanging out tonight. Mr C and I have both been blown away listening to Seymour drop all this science twenty years later. Please share the archive if so inclined. And huge thanks again to Doug for making this re-broadcast happen!
	9:52pm coelacanth∅: (i'd be in the cure corner. even if the smiths had a good singer... i was all about the cure)
	9:53pm sufferwords: only time I've wanted more talk less rock -so great- thanks
	9:53pm Candy-O'67: This was so fantastic, Monica! Thx so much!!

	9:54pm PaulRobeson1923: SEYMOUR THANK U and THANK U MONICA & Mr.Ceeee
	9:54pm ModnikBri: I love the Cure but it’s tough for me to decide. I think I like the Smiths more
	9:55pm patrick321: Thanks Monica and Mr C for 1) making this really amazing document in the first place, and 2) for hanging with us all to present it again. RIP Seymour Stein.
	9:55pm ModnikBri: Madonna, the soundtrack to my childhood!
	9:55pm Dano59: Therese, Mona, efd and others have played some cool Stein / Sire tribute sets recently.
	9:55pm Max D: ↳ Dano59 @9:54 That's funny Dano! I was about to say I've become an evangelist for the station here in the PNW since discovering it in the past few years.
	9:55pm ModnikBri: ↳ patrick321 @9:55 Yes thank you!
	9:56pm ModnikBri: ↳ Max D @9:55 I’ve spread the word too, since I first heard about it through one of my high school teachers
	9:56pm coelacanth∅: Bri i was a punk rocker and the cure was full-on punk at first! - then took me through their changes. - and i was a bit dark and the cure was certainly darker!
	9:57pm ModnikBri: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:56 Exactly! I remember asking and getting Disintgration for Christmas one year during my goth phase
	9:57pm Max D: ↳ ModnikBri @9:56 That's cool. Tod A, of the band Firewater told me about it via social media a few years ago.
	9:57pm Elena: Thank you so much! This show was amazing to begin with but it's great to have all songs tagged and commentary from today as well.
	9:57pm Doug Schulkind: Brilliant radio, then and now!
	9:58pm Van Winkle ;-): Three hours has passed in a flash...a very happy one...thank you Monica & Mr. C for reviving this worthy archive. Have a great weekend everyone.
	9:59pm Monica: Thank you , Elena! Thank you, DOUG!
	9:59pm ModnikBri: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @9:58 You too!

	9:59pm Monica: Truer words were never spoken. THANK YOU SEYMOUR!!!!

	7:11pm Ciggy: Mr. Stein made his most successful signing while hospitalized for a heart condition in 1982. Madonna Ciccone, a young singer and dancer, was beginning to attract industry attention for a demo tape of a song she had written called “Everybody.” Fearing competition from other labels, Mr. Stein summoned her to his bedside at Lenox Hill Hospital. “Just tell me what I have to do to get a record deal in this town,” she said (using saltier language), according to Mr. Stein’s book. “Don’t worry,” he assured her. “You’ve got a deal.” Mr. Stein signed Madonna to a $45,000 contract for three singles, with an option for an album, and Sire released “Everybody” that fall. Madonna went on to sell more than 64 million albums in the United States alone, according to the Recording Industry Association of America. Source: NY Times Obituary 4/2/23

	7:41pm patrick321: ↳ Monica @7:38 I will certainly fill in the missing time.
	7:42pm Dano59: ↳ Dano59 @7:40 (via an indie publicist who cold-called me)
	7:46pm Mr C: Syd Nathan was Seymour's North Star through his life..

	8:19pm ModnikBri: ↳ Bruce S. @8:18 Same here! Until yesterday, I just started scratching the surface of his ‘60s career!
	8:19pm patrick321: Seymour talking about King takes me back—I don't know if it was the 85 or 86 New Music Seminar, I know you were there, Monica. It was the one at the New York Hilton (the last one). I was the host in the Seminar penthouse, where James Brown came up for breakfast each day, and also did interviews in the afternoons. The late Frank Callari was with me in th penthouse and he had some King singles that Mr. Brown signed for him.
	8:21pm ModnikBri: ↳ patrick321 @8:19 Way cool!
	8:21pm Candy-O'67: That's very cool, Patrick? So, you met James Brown?
	8:22pm Candy-O'67: Didn't mean that first ? That was supposed to be !
	8:22pm Monica: patrick321 - that was '84. I escorted Mr. Brown on his appointed press rounds that week for UNITY w/Bambaataa. And yes, it was the Presidential Suite at the Hilton.
	8:22pm Jessie: The archives alone are worth the donation to WFMU. Wonderful stuff Monica. Thank you.
	8:23pm Mr C: Yes Jessie!
	8:23pm Ciggy: ↳ Jessie @8:22 I 2nd that Jessie
	8:24pm Monica: Huge appreciation for the comment, Jessie!
	8:24pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Jessie @8:22 I'll "third" that... ;-)
	8:25pm ModnikBri: Yess! I was just thinking of this song!
	8:26pm Dano59: Big love for the Queens accents
	👻 8:26pm doctorjazz: And the back up ("...down, down")
	8:26pm patrick321: Was it 84? I'm sure you're right. My copy of Unity is signed by Bam and JB. I met Seymour at the closing party
	8:27pm Monica: On behalf of myself and Mr C, Would like to express HUGE gratitude to Doug Schulkind for making this re-broadcast possible here on Give The Drummer Stream possible.

	8:29pm Mr C: Gratitude to Doug!
	8:31pm patrick321: ↳ Candy-O'67 @8:21 Candy-O yes I actually spent a lot of time with his entourage in the afternoons—they told a few stories and I was just all ears. It was really a thrill.
	8:33pm Bruce S.: The Stones did this one too

	8:44pm Mr C: Perfect!
	8:44pm Uncle Michael: Hi Monica. Hi, Mr. C. Hello everyone.
	8:45pm patrick321: SS seemed to say (gently) of Black Magic Woman "yeah Santana the famous one but this is the good one."
	8:45pm Mr C: Magic Mike Goin' to Kansas City and get a taste of the Golden Spur wine..
	8:47pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Mr C @8:45 Are you quoting a song or telling me you'll be out this way?
	8:47pm Dano59: Whoa - a lotta Raymond Scott!

	8:51pm DL in LA: This show and interview is A+++. Thanks Monica and Mr. C!
	8:53pm Jeff Golick: this is so cool
	8:53pm Bruce S.: YES GET DOWN WITH THE SOUND
	8:55pm Monica: Hey there, Jeff ad DL in LA - and thx!
	👻 8:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" What do you think the chances of an instrumental with a yodeling break are now of becoming a hit?
	8:55pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" imagine being the copyist working on this sheet music
	8:56pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" The Dutch Masters
	8:56pm nnaavvaall: This is a fascinating story. Kudos to Monica and Mr. C. So much fun!
	8:56pm patrick321: ↳ doctorjazz @8:55 The odds weren't good then either, especially with the elf singing
	8:56pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Ciggy @8:56 Yes!!
	👻 8:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ Dano59 @8:55 Hahahaha!
	8:57pm Uncle Michael: I love the Popeye break.
	8:57pm Monica: much appreciated, nnaavvaall! Seymour is truly the gift that keeps on giving. Jewels galore.
	8:57pm tranewreck: I’m transfixed
	8:58pm Candy-O'67: ↳ doctorjazz @8:56 Without the elf and yodeling, it's cool music!😄
	8:58pm patrick321: ↳ Uncle Michael @8:57 Was it Popeye? That's what I meant by "elf singing"
	👻 8:58pm doctorjazz: And some Roland Kirk sounding flute, tore out all the stops!
	8:58pm Uncle Michael: Popeye the Elf.
	8:58pm Monica: likewise, tranewreck!
	8:58pm Bruce S.: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" gee it's great to hear this again thanks
	👻 8:58pm doctorjazz: (not to mention drum breaks out of Wipe Out, accordian, I'm exhausted...)
	8:58pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" ...vague memories of this getting fairly regular airplay on the radio in Montreal when I was a kid...quite the nostalgic blast...
	8:59pm Uncle Michael: Just love that this is NOT the hit single edit. Go long!
	8:59pm Max D: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" Have any of you seen their appearance on The Midnight Special when they were given only 4 minutes to do this, so they just did it at double speed?
	8:59pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Hocus Pocus" by "Focus" Big airplay on WNEW-FM
	8:59pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @8:58 I remember it from when I was a kid in the South, too. We probably lived in either Oklahoma or Houston been it was popular
	9:00pm Candy-O'67: *when it was popular
	9:00pm Monica: Welcome, Max D!
	👻 9:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ Ciggy @8:59 I remember it from there too.
	9:00pm Dano59: ↳ Ciggy @8:59 big FM rock hit everywere, as i recall. still the most ridiculous thing ever, and still mesmerizing
	9:01pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Max D @8:59 Sounds fantastic, Max!
	9:02pm Bruce S.: Frankenstein by Edgar Winter was an instrumental hit at around the same time as Hocus Pocus
	9:03pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Bruce S. @9:02 That's another great one
	👻 9:03pm doctorjazz: The Silkie hit on the Beatles tune!
	9:03pm ModnikBri: Dad- “Why are you listening to Yoko?” Me- “It’s not Yoko, it’s Silkie!”
	9:03pm patrick321: ↳ Dano59 @9:00 I think you nailed it, Dano
	9:03pm Candy-O'67: ↳ ModnikBri @9:03 Haha!
	9:04pm patrick321: ↳ ModnikBri @9:03 Haha that's brilliant
	9:04pm Monica: Seymour had big ears as evidenced by the breadth of his signings over many generations.
	👻 9:05pm doctorjazz: ↳ Monica @9:04 The variety of styles/acts is amazing!
	9:05pm nnaavvaall: ↳ ModnikBri @9:03 I like that, Bri... educate dad.
	9:05pm Dano59: Dick and Dee Dee?
	9:05pm Mr C: His appetite for music and song was infinite..
	9:06pm Max D: ↳ nnaavvaall @9:01 It's very impressive! You can find it on YouTube.
	9:06pm Dano59: got aheada myself. underrated Stones cut.
	9:06pm ModnikBri: ↳ nnaavvaall @9:05 Thank you!
	9:07pm patrick321: ↳ Monica @9:04 Absolutely. I was really only aware of his artists of the 80s, but apparently he had a hand many of the records I loved/liked/bought from about 1972 on.
	9:08pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Song: "Blue Turns to Grey" by "Cliff Richards & The Shad... Somebody played this on WAKE & BAKE- I know it
	👻 9:08pm doctorjazz: Focus on the Midnight Special...www.youtube.com...
	9:10pm Jessie: I think Seymour said Greg Shaw. The Bomp Greg Shaw?
	9:11pm Uncle Michael: I love that Paleys/Ramones record.
	9:11pm Bruce S.: Monica, Mr. C, this show is more then classic, it's Monumental
	9:12pm Monica: ↳ Jessie @9:10 yes!
	9:12pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "SEYMOUR SPEAKS" Jeffrey Lewis knows the score on that one (The History of Punk on New York's Lower East Side)
	9:13pm Mr C: Thank you Bruce It is, only for Seymour!
	9:14pm ModnikBri: As I like to say, Punk has it’s roots in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest with Bands like The Sonics and The Kingsmen
	9:14pm Ciggy: Reminded of the Peter Lynch theory of investing (sort of) - Look around you - see what you like. There maybe an investment that will give you a considerable rate of return. So, Seymour looked in the Bowery. Viola.
	9:15pm Monica: hi, PaulRobeson1923! and yes, thx Bruce S.! Only wish we'd had a chance to do a whole series of shows with Seymour. What a teacher and appreciator.
	9:15pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Song: "Shake Some Action" by "Flamin' Groovies" Could I ever tire of hearing this song... absolutely not!!!
	9:15pm Bruce S.: ↳ Song: "Shake Some Action" by "Flamin' Groovies" man I feel so good I'm gonna plotz in a minute
	9:15pm Dano59: ↳ ModnikBri @9:14 ... or Detroit (Suzi Quatro!)
	9:15pm patrick321: ↳ Bruce S. @9:11 It's like finding a documentary that no one else knows about.
	9:15pm Jessie: ↳ Song: "Shake Some Action" by "Flamin' Groovies" Why in the hell wasn't this song a MAJOR hit in the States?
	9:15pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @9:15 Same here!!
	9:16pm ModnikBri: ↳ Dano59 @9:15 Exactly! Where I’m from! With Mc5 and stooges as well. The Luv’d ones

	9:16pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Bruce S. @9:15 Had to look up "plotz"...always learning!!!
	9:17pm Dano59: ↳ ModnikBri @9:16 David Fair talks in the 1/2 Japanese doc about seeing them at their school dances.
	9:17pm ModnikBri: I’m a little late to the flamin’ groovies, discovered this song through the clueless soundtrack in middle school, learned that most of the songs on that soundtrack were covers
	9:17pm ModnikBri: ↳ Dano59 @9:17 Cool!
	9:18pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ patrick321 @9:16 ;-)
	👻 9:18pm doctorjazz: Hey Ho, Let's Go!
	9:18pm ModnikBri: Sadly it’s also where I first heard All the young dudes. Not the Mott the hoople version but World Party’s version
	9:19pm Dano59: ↳ ModnikBri @9:17 better late than never. groovies were a little under the radar here in upstate NY, and their earlier Roy Loney era was even more of a mystery.
	9:19pm ModnikBri: My dad would sing All the young dudes and I was like, how did you know this song from clueless? He was like, it came out when I was a teengaer’
	👻 9:19pm doctorjazz: Still could use some catch yup on The Flamin' Groovies.
	9:19pm Dano59: ↳ ModnikBri @9:18 Jill Sobule's Supermodel is stil one of her two best known songs. thanks to Cllueless.
	9:20pm Bruce S.: the music you played through out the show really makes one feel the excitement of these different musical eras
	9:20pm Candy-O'67: ↳ ModnikBri @9:17 I found out about them when I lived in SoCal and saw a reformed version of them out there in the early 2000's. Saw them in LA
	9:20pm ModnikBri: ↳ Dano59 @9:19 I love the Groovies! Nobody ever talks about them where I’m from
	9:20pm patrick321: ↳ ModnikBri @9:17 Modnik I don't know how to find it but there's video of them playing at Monty Hall
	9:20pm ModnikBri: ↳ patrick321 @9:20 Wow!
	9:20pm ModnikBri: ↳ Candy-O'67 @9:20 Cool!
	9:20pm ModnikBri: ↳ Dano59 @9:19 True, and I kissed a girl
	9:21pm Dano59: ↳ ModnikBri @9:20 finally got to see them in '13 at Bowery Ballroom. Groovies set audio from FMU around that time or later is on the Free Music Archive.
	9:22pm Uncle Michael: I think I probably hear the Roy Loney & the Phantom Movers album before I ever heard the Groovies.
	9:22pm Jessie: Flamin' Groovies performing Slow Death in '72. www.youtube.com...
	9:23pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Jessie @9:22 Oooh gotta check that out!

	9:37pm Candy-O'67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:36 Hey coel! You gotta for sure!
	9:37pm ModnikBri: The smiths were a constant for me in high school!
	9:37pm Candy-O'67: ↳ WR @9:35 Howdy WR
	9:37pm Jeff Golick: Smiths, so great, and Morrissey, so so stupid (as it turns out).
	9:37pm ModnikBri: Hey Wr!
	9:38pm patrick321: Hey coelacanthø good to see you here
	9:38pm coelacanth∅: hi Candy!

	9:39pm coelacanth∅: hi patrick! Bri!
	9:39pm jmd: I hope this show never ends. it's been so terrific listening to the stories and the music. Great show, thanks Monica.
	9:39pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Jeff Golick @9:37 Agree...M's late life position on far too many matters are anything but charming...but that doesn't take away from the tunes of the time...
	9:40pm ModnikBri: Morrissey Played on my 16th birthday in Detroit, I wanted to go just so he could pull Me onstage and sing “unhappy birthday.” I never got to see him but I did get the Cd of The Queen is dead
	9:40pm Mr C: Chrissie Hynde and the Preterders, crazy as it may seem, are one of the most underrated Sire classic era artists..
	9:41pm Mr C: The Pretenders!!
	9:41pm Monica: jmd - thx from me and mr c!
	9:41pm Candy-O'67: ↳ ModnikBri @9:40 Sorry you didn't get to see him. I never have seen him or The Smiths live either
	9:41pm patrick321: ↳ Mr C @9:40 Mr C I think they were so great people took it for granted.
	9:41pm ModnikBri: Ahh this song used to be one of my favorites! Got me through rough times
	9:41pm ModnikBri: ↳ Candy-O'67 @9:41 It’s ok!
	9:42pm Max D: Wow, this show has been so enlightening! I knew nothing of Seymour before learning of his passing last week. What a great person and an outstanding career! Thank you for sharing this gem with us.
	9:42pm Mr C: Maybe you're right there Patrick..
	9:42pm Candy-O'67: ↳ ModnikBri @9:41 I loved it, too
	9:43pm Monica: ↳ Max D @9:42 thx or the appreciation. seymour was a GREAT record man.
	9:43pm Jessie: Two personal favorites on Sire are the Tuff Darts and DMZ.
	9:43pm ModnikBri: I knew he was the man behind most of these bands, but I didn’t know he went wayy back to the ‘50s! I know him through his 70s/80s because New wave/Punk is one of My fave genres
	9:43pm ModnikBri: ↳ Jessie @9:43 Heck yeah DMZ!
	9:43pm Dano59: ↳ Jeff Golick @9:37 Johnny Marr is still the man ... I never quite got the cult of Morrissey.
	9:44pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Jessie @9:43 Love them both, too!!
	9:44pm ModnikBri: ↳ Dano59 @9:43 Lol same. Me and My friend used to joke about Morrissey and called him one of my wall boyfriends and Morussy
	9:45pm ModnikBri: Echo!
	9:45pm Max D: ↳ ModnikBri @9:43 One of the two best shows of my life was seeing Talking Heads on their Speaking in Tongues tour, which became immortalized in Jonathan Demme's Stop Making Sense.
	9:46pm ModnikBri: ↳ Max D @9:45 I’ve always wanted to see that Documentary!
	9:46pm Bruce S.: I think the Smiths are still an underrated band, they had such a great sound they should be played more often
	9:46pm Max D: ↳ ModnikBri @9:46 Oh you must!
	9:46pm Dano59: ↳ Max D @9:45 David Byrne's American Utopia shows were absolutely amazing ..
	9:47pm Max D: ↳ Dano59 @9:46 I heard that from a friend who saw the show.
	9:47pm ModnikBri: I’ve seen The talking Heads South Bank show, it got me deeper into them
	9:47pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Dano59 @9:46 & David road his bike to and from each performance
	9:48pm ModnikBri: DEPCHE MODE and my fave song of theirs!
	9:48pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "All That Jazz" by "Echo & the Bunnymen" My Absolute Favorite track of Echo & The Bunnymen
	9:48pm ModnikBri: ↳ Ciggy @9:48 Cool! It was a first time hearing that one for me
	9:49pm Dano59: Tom Tom Cllub also had a bit of FMU play in Seymour's honor. I needed the reminder of their joy and greatness too.
	9:49pm coelacanth∅: i've said since the 80s i wish the smiths had gotten a good singer... an extraordinary band and morressy was an excellent lyricist but an abominable singer! never mind about his politics/sociopolitics i probably agree with him on much of it (but i really don't know - or care) but he's an egomaniac!
	9:49pm ModnikBri: ↳ Dano59 @9:49 Yes!! They’re so good!
	9:49pm Candy-O'67: ↳ ModnikBri @9:48 I used to love this one, too. I got into them in my college years in the late '80's
	9:50pm patrick321: ↳ ModnikBri @9:48 "Do It Clean" from the same LP is another gem from Echo&
	9:50pm Ciggy: ↳ patrick321 @9:50 Great album
	9:50pm ModnikBri: ↳ Candy-O'67 @9:49 Nice! I got into them around 6th-7th grade. First band to get me into new wave
	9:50pm Van Winkle ;-): Depeche Mode aussi!!! What favourite tunes and artists didn't he have connections to!?!
	9:51pm Jessie: Sire Records soundtracked the lives of a lot of the youth of this world. Bless you Seymour.
	9:51pm Dano59: We used to have 2 DJs in town do battles for the college kids ... The Smiths v. The Cure was a repeat favorite. I always was in the Cure corner. Stevie Wonder v. Michael Jackson was another fave.
	9:52pm ModnikBri: ↳ Jessie @9:51 Yes! Certainly the soundtrack to mine
	9:52pm patrick321: ↳ Ciggy @9:50 ...and here we are
	9:52pm Monica: Want to thank you all for hanging out tonight. Mr C and I have both been blown away listening to Seymour drop all this science twenty years later. Please share the archive if so inclined. And huge thanks again to Doug for making this re-broadcast happen!
	9:52pm coelacanth∅: (i'd be in the cure corner. even if the smiths had a good singer... i was all about the cure)

	9:54pm PaulRobeson1923: SEYMOUR THANK U and THANK U MONICA & Mr.Ceeee

	9:55pm ModnikBri: Madonna, the soundtrack to my childhood!
	9:55pm Dano59: Therese, Mona, efd and others have played some cool Stein / Sire tribute sets recently.
	9:55pm Max D: ↳ Dano59 @9:54 That's funny Dano! I was about to say I've become an evangelist for the station here in the PNW since discovering it in the past few years.
	9:55pm ModnikBri: ↳ patrick321 @9:55 Yes thank you!
	9:56pm ModnikBri: ↳ Max D @9:55 I’ve spread the word too, since I first heard about it through one of my high school teachers

	9:57pm ModnikBri: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:56 Exactly! I remember asking and getting Disintgration for Christmas one year during my goth phase
	9:57pm Max D: ↳ ModnikBri @9:56 That's cool. Tod A, of the band Firewater told me about it via social media a few years ago.
	9:57pm Elena: Thank you so much! This show was amazing to begin with but it's great to have all songs tagged and commentary from today as well.
	9:57pm Doug Schulkind: Brilliant radio, then and now!
	9:58pm Van Winkle ;-): Three hours has passed in a flash...a very happy one...thank you Monica & Mr. C for reviving this worthy archive. Have a great weekend everyone.
	9:59pm Monica: Thank you , Elena! Thank you, DOUG!
	9:59pm ModnikBri: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @9:58 You too!
