	🎸 ♥ 3:06pm rrg: The radiorethink player says "current show is unknown, please stay tuned". It doesn't know, but we do. Why doesn't it just ask us?

	3:08pm listener Phillip in the Bronx: 3 years is a record for me not getting a cold. I would catch 2 a year

	3:10pm listener Phillip in the Bronx: IRWIN? that rumor Gus got into a scuffle with an FMU listener in a bar? There no truth to that right???
	♥ 3:10pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:04 Handy i'm tempted to let this get out of hand but restraining myself
	♥ 3:11pm Irwin: ↳ listener Phillip in the Bronx @3:10 Don't confuse rumors with FACTS.
	3:12pm listener Phillip in the Bronx: I’m glad 😀 I don’t want to see the guy beat up! Gus has enough troubles of his own and his poor woe-begotten liver

	♥ 3:21pm Irwin: ↳ Andrea C from the app @3:18 Thanks, Andrea. But don't confuse musical self-indulgence with heroism. I'm just an aging lower primate killing time each week on the radio.
	♥ 3:21pm G: ↳ Irwin @3:21 And what tasteful timekilling it is.
	3:22pm HyperDose: I'm confusing this for jazz
	♥ 3:22pm Jason from Houston: ↳ HyperDose @3:22 Same.
	♥ 3:23pm JetBoy of Astoria: People mistake me for human all the time
	♥ 3:23pm Doug in MP: Good afternoon. I hope everyone is having as good of a day as the little dog next door, triumphantly circling the yard with a dead rat hanging out of his mouth
	♥ 3:23pm wormington hermit: this sounds like that Brattleboro sound
	♥ 3:23pm G: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @3:23 We're all primarily primate.
	3:23pm Andrea C from the app: And I’m grateful for that, Irwin.
	♥ 3:24pm sydnius: ↳ Doug in MP @3:23 ⅗

	♥ 3:28pm sydnius: ↳ listener Phillip in the Bronx @3:28 Hopefully the noodle soups are in abundance

	♥ 3:30pm sydnius: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:29 so you’re saying I need to roll 24 on a d20?
	3:32pm Mister Dobalina: The Penny Saver?
	3:34pm Andrea C from the app: Hey Doug! In this very moment I’m relaxing on the balcony. Listening to WFMU, having a beer, and looking at the stars. Didn’t feel this relaxed in a while. Must have been the massive humble pie I hate today. Got a lot of work to do. I guess that is a positive.
	3:34pm HyperDose: Gustavo. Tan caliente ahora, Gustavo.
	3:35pm Andrea C from the app: Ate?! Ohps.
	🎸 ♥ 3:35pm listener 126464: Loved Sábado Gigante.
	3:36pm Mister Dobalina: Sabado Gigante...wow! I don't think I would ever hear that on FMU. & Walter Mercado? Gustavo is extreme legitness!!!
	3:36pm Mister Dobalina: El Chavo is the best!
	3:37pm Mister Dobalina: Mention Topo Gigio & I'll lose it.
	♥ 3:38pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Song: "Univisionary Gus" by "Gus Bodenheim" I think we all need a picture of this Puerto Rican
	3:38pm Too Obtuse: No Lente Loco??
	3:39pm listener Phillip in the Bronx: Gus sounds pretty good for a man who use to down a bottle of Hennessy Cognac every single day
	♥ 3:40pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ listener Phillip in the Bronx @3:39 No, he just drinks weasel juice
	3:41pm Mister Dobalina: Hennessy quivers
	♥ 3:43pm Matt from Springfield: Hi there, Irwin and 'winners! McKinley was on the $500 federal banknote, so Hoboken is worth 50 times as much? Or just deflating like a whoopy cushion?
	3:43pm Fredericks: wfmu.org...
	♥ 3:47pm efd: ↳ Song: "Hearts Are Trump" by "Ken Freedman & Trio" Outstanding.

	♥ 3:47pm Handy Haversack: ↳ -жеи @3:47 It lives!
	♥ 3:47pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Hearts Are Trump" by "Ken Freedman & Trio" Awesome, didn't realize he played with Trio!!
	♥ 3:48pm efd: ↳ efd @3:47 Now I can leave, I didn't want to miss it!
	♥ 3:48pm Handy Haversack: Relatedly, I have just learned there's no BISAC code for Music / Experimental. WTH?
	3:48pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Song: "Hearts Are Trump" by "Ken Freedman & Trio" Ken ist Trumpf! How/when did this come about?
	3:48pm Mister Dobalina: WoW, the whole crew is here.
	♥ 3:49pm sydnius: …shouldn’t spades be <expletive deleted>?
	3:50pm maester gardeneers of Lansing Michigan: The reward for listening to wfmu all day…hearing it come full circle!
	♥ 3:50pm Irwin: ↳ maester gardeneers of Lansing Michigan @3:50 What's termed in the profession a callback.
	♥ 3:51pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Another Day, Another Lifetime / I Would Like To K... Nice arrangements - evidently The David were an L.A. psych garage band.
	♥ 3:52pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:51 One interesting LP then they disappeared.
	♥ 3:53pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "Another Day, Another Lifetime / I Would Like To K... This is their "You Set the Scene."
	♥ 3:54pm mace: happy my meetings are done for the day so I can get more FMU
	♥ 3:54pm mace: I think this is the first time I have actually been able to catch Irwin's program
	♥ 3:54pm DjLorraine: ↳ Doug in MP @3:23 New Czar in town. Woot & woof!
	3:55pm HyperDose: ↳ mace @3:54 Buckle up. It's a doozy! 🎩
	♥ 3:56pm G: ↳ Song: "Another Day, Another Lifetime / I Would Like To K... AKA "Wednesday Afternoon" with a nod to the Moodies
	♥ 3:58pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ G @3:56 Another Weekday, Another Band Lifetime..
	♥ 3:58pm Handy Haversack: And I have done. Heading home. Will catch the last hour from those friendlier shores. Thanks, Irwin! Until anon, anonners!
	3:59pm HyperDose: Safe travels, Handy
	4:01pm Bakester: I believe the David were high school students (!)
	♥ 4:03pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Bakester @4:01 We ALL were high school students
	♥ 4:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: High ! ...in School. Yes. Yes I was.
	♥ 4:06pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Song: "Stable Manifold" by "Jamie Saft, Steve Swallow, B... Jamie Saft plays a mean accordion
	♥ 4:07pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:04 Gotta soar as high as you would go..
	♥ 4:08pm Feldy: ↳ Song: "As Our Mother Rolls the Dice" by "Sunflowers" I was sure this was a Nirvana cover before the lyrics
	♥ 4:09pm coelacanth∅: hola Matt ...damn. i took a shower and missed the Ken Freedman trio
	♥ 4:09pm DjLorraine: ↳ Feldy @4:08 Similar thoughts here
	♥ 4:09pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Feldy @4:08 Hopefully Kurt's kid is getting royalty checks off it
	♥ 4:10pm coelacanth∅: aloha Feldy
	♥ 4:11pm Irwin: ↳ Andrew_in_WI @4:09 It's a good riff. Glad Sunflowers nicked it. Nirvana didn't know what to do with it.
	♥ 4:11pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:09 Definitely swoop back and take a listen. But, it does remind one of shower-singing.
	♥ 4:12pm coelacanth∅: i need a shower radio
	♥ 4:12pm sydnius: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:12 JBL clip, love it
	♥ 4:12pm Feldy: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:10 Cheers coelacanth∅!
	4:13pm Fred and Alan: Hello Everyone Fred and Alan
	♥ 4:13pm 12539: Irwin!
	♥ 4:14pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ sydnius @4:12 I second the JBL recommendation. Currently listening on one
	4:15pm Andrea C from the app: Good night everyone.
	♥ 4:19pm DjLorraine: ↳ Fred and Alan @4:13 I'm feeling much better. Satellitéee!
	♥ 4:20pm Tommy in Neversink: Despite your Astral Weeks blind spot you always play great stuff.
	♥ 4:20pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "RTZ Baby" by "Candace" Candace has some great bass lines.
	♥ 4:22pm coelacanth∅: ↳ sydnius @4:12 Thanks; that looks pretty sweet. jbl... probably sounds excellent. - but i can pick up 90.1 here so i only need a regular radio
	♥ 4:22pm Tommy in Neversink: I used sort of play Donna Lee on piano...didn't really master it by a long stretch. But it taught me a lot about soloing over flat 9 chords
	♥ 4:23pm Andrew_in_WI: @Irwin. I like Astral Weeks, but if you want some truly insufferable Van... try out Rave On, John Donne and Rave On pt 2.
	♥ 4:24pm ike̶̬̕: Cage match: editor vs. incoherent Taiwanese art abstract! Only ONE will leave ALIVE!!!!!
	♥ 4:24pm coelacanth∅: i guess this isn't Anthony Braxton's donna lee
	♥ 4:25pm Tommy in Neversink: ↳ Andrew_in_WI @4:23 Van has put out a lot of lame stuff . Especially in the 80s. He should have taken the best songs from all his 80s albums and made one good album.
	♥ 4:25pm coelacanth∅: (or Miles'?)
	♥ 4:26pm Asheville Jon: yay, another Anthony Braxton person!
	♥ 4:27pm Tommy in Neversink: ↳ Asheville Jon @4:26 Make that two
	♥ 4:27pm Karl Ward: ↳ Tommy in Neversink @4:25 I know just the man to oversee that compilation, and write the liner notes. He goes by the name Chusid. Let's hear his thoughts on the matter.
	♥ 4:28pm coelacanth∅: ha, yeah i Love Braxton! ... but i've only hear donna lee twice, a loooong time ago so i'm not sure i'd know a version when hearing one
	♥ 4:29pm Tommy in Neversink: ↳ Karl Ward @4:27 LOL !!!! you rule the FMU comment section today
	♥ 4:29pm Asheville Jon: Braxton people, please hold..........
	♥ 4:30pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Karl Ward @4:27 Van's Best of 80's - liner notes by Irwin - "Truly terrible. "
	♥ 4:30pm Ike: Irwin and I may often disagree, but we are united in an incandescent revulsion towards Astral Weeks. Van Morrison's bizarre squawking and caterwauling is for the birds. And by birds, I mean vultures, because he sings like something dying and croaking out its last breath.
	♥ 4:30pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Kingdom of Not" by "Rakestar" Hypnotic jazz cuts today!
	4:31pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Kingdom of Not" by "Rakestar" Swinging the Ra all around.
	♥ 4:32pm Karl Ward: ↳ Andrew_in_WI @4:30 2024 Premium: a beautiful "Best of Van Morrison 80s" compiled by Irwin. Box is absolutely gorgeous. And also, totally empty.
	♥ 4:33pm Ike: ↳ Karl Ward @4:32 I love it.
	♥ 4:33pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Karl Ward @4:32 That's good!
	♥ 4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: As I've sad before ...why not a whole dedicated Stream of its own for just Hate Listening ~ Commenting ? ...Clearly it'd be vigorously popular...
	♥ 4:34pm Asheville Jon: ok Braxton people: i have this three record set that i've been meaning to digitize. i haven't dug too deep, but i kinda recall that a few years ago when i tried to find it online (to listen to), it wasn't available. anyone ever heard it? here's a link to pics: flic.kr...
	♥ 4:35pm 12539: Thank you, volunteers!
	♥ 4:35pm Feldy: Be free, workers!
	♥ 4:35pm sydnius: Ken seems a bad influence no more playdates
	♥ 4:36pm Matt from Springfield: (Your) Work Makes (Me) Free!
	♥ 4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Work Will Set You FreeForm ...& we take a dark little turn in our playground of sounds...
	4:37pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Kingdom of Not" by "Rakestar" Definitely a Sun Ra cover: youtu.be...
	4:37pm Triple G: Hi Irwin, all. A bit late… did I miss the Ken singing medley portion of the show?
	♥ 4:38pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ sydnius @4:35 I bet he sets off firecrackers too! Listen to his radio show, it sounds like he does it in the studio.
	4:39pm Fan mail from some flounder: That is written above the gate to Auschwetz
	♥ 4:39pm Irwin: ↳ Fredericks @4:37 Rakestar does other Ra covers. Figured this was another.
	4:40pm Fredericks: ↳ Irwin @4:39 They did a nice interpretation.
	♥ 4:40pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Irwin @4:39 It's in the name. RAkestar
	♥ 4:41pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "August" by "Love" Love's drummer during this period was a maniac.
	♥ 4:42pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:41 Good maniac, or bad maniac? Or ma-ni-ac man-i-ac?
	♥ 4:43pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:42 Plays like he's possessed.
	♥ 4:43pm Karl Ward: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:42 What's he's saying is: he's a maniac, maniac, on the drums
	4:43pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "August" by "Love" This sounds better than I remembered. I generally prefer earlier Love stuff.
	♥ 4:43pm Brian in UK: Monica has played August & now Irwin.. How could you not.
	♥ 4:44pm Handy Haversack: Made it. Things seem still wild around here.
	♥ 4:47pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:44 Maniac, even. Drum demons driving down!
	4:48pm Triple G: this Vacant Lots is reminding me of a Kiwi Jr. song if they went a little harder
	♥ 4:48pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:44 Maurice Sendik is planning a sequel based on Irwin's show
	♥ 4:48pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Song: "August" by "Love" Very nice
	♥ 4:48pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:47 Well, then I best get the drinks in.
	♥ 4:49pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Andrew_in_WI @4:48 Well! Then I best get the drinks in!
	4:50pm ryansterlingvirtue: Really enjoying this. Thanks as always Irwin
	♥ 4:51pm spodiodi: heh
	♥ 4:51pm Matt from Springfield: Arbeitration macht frei. It's just yours and mein kampf.
	♥ 4:53pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:49 You're the best at getting drinks! :) How bout a French martini today?
	♥ 4:53pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Andrew_in_WI @4:48 I've commented various times before that "the late Maurice Sendak" should do the book idea someone suggested.
	♥ 4:56pm Feldy: DJ ARB macht frei
	🎸 ♥ 4:56pm rrg: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:53 That's a good name for a band ("The Late Maurice Sendak").
	♥ 4:57pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:53 Bien sur!
	♥ 4:58pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:57 Merci beaucoups, 'andéy!
	♥ 4:59pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ rrg @4:56 It does sound nice - though I have wondered before about the legality of referencing other well-known people in band names, even if late.
	♥ 5:02pm Matt from Springfield: Rationalizing Shampoo Heads, opening for The Late Maurice Sendak this Friday at Monty Hall...
	♥ 5:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...there's pictures of Hendrix when he joined the 101st Airborne in the early 60s...
	5:03pm Mister Dobalina: Esta cancion es super chevre!
	5:03pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "August" by "Love" This (and two other Love songs) is in the recent Leslie Van Houten biopic "Charlie Says". The album apparently has enjoyed a comeback, what with “Always See Your Face” appearing in 2017’s Oscar-nominated “Lady Bird” (and it was previously in the film “High Fidelity”).
	♥ 5:04pm god∅: i'm on a man-date with Jimi
	♥ 5:05pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Rainy Day, Dream Away / Still Rainin' Still Dream... No rationalization needed for playing Hendrix.
	♥ 5:05pm DjLorraine: Does this cut have a wee bit of cut?
	♥ 5:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...@ least one biography says Hendrix was already concerned with some hair loss late in his life...
	♥ 5:06pm chresti: What it is!
	♥ 5:08pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:05 If he had lived to play the reunion tours, how do you think he would've swung with it? Keep the sides of the head with hair, or just shave it all when the baldness became apparent? And I believe his facial hair would definitely be kept, probably a 'stache with soul patch...
	♥ 5:09pm Kevin-san: ugh, I'd rather listen to Astral Weeks
	5:09pm Dean: No Trio?
	5:09pm HyperDose: ↳ chresti @5:06 Heard that soul sista!
	♥ 5:09pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Kevin-san @5:09 To each their WFMU...
	♥ 5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:08 Well - was always one of the great Hat Wearers of all time. But how Hendrix & Culture would've interacted after 18th Sept., 1970 we shall forevermore be speculating...
	♥ 5:13pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:10 Peter, Paul & Mary’s music are like Jimi’s in many ways. They all, turn, you, on
	♥ 5:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...also: All ArthurLee & Love is great.
	♥ 5:14pm MasterofPuberty: ↳ Song: "The Low End of Potential" by "Balk" I really thought they were saying "Mazel Tov"
	5:19pm ASpawnOfSatan: !!!!Gus!!!!
	5:19pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Gus's Halcyon Days" by "Gus Bodenheim" I recently saw a headline along the lines of "What went wrong with Blood Sweat and Tears?" I didn't click it.
	5:20pm HyperDose: likes and subscribes
	♥ 5:20pm Irwin: ↳ Fredericks @5:19 It's a new film, playing soon at Monty Hall.
	5:23pm Susan: Good to hear Gus missed the show last week
	♥ 5:23pm Irwin: ↳ Irwin @5:20 www.eventbrite.com...
	♥ 5:23pm Asheville Jon: grrrrr. i go outside to play frisbee with my daughter, and miss Gus. ugh
	5:24pm David Shortell: ↳ Irwin @5:20 “What the Hell Happened to Blood, Sweat & Tears?” is also playing this weekend at the ShowRoom (707 Cookman Ave, Asbury Park).
	♥ 5:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...admire Gus. Really poutine it on the line like that...
	♥ 5:25pm Matt from Springfield: Second chance to hear Ken's classic shower-solo with Trio! Wonder what the stage setup for that was like? If it was in Germany..!
	5:27pm Juli: Trying take a walk to FMU in headphones
	5:28pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "Today We're the Greatest" by "Middle Kids" Thought this was Ingrid Michaelson at first
	5:28pm Jack: My only question is:how the Hell can you have a documentary about Blood Sweat & Tears without Al Kooper in it?!?
	5:29pm Juli: Today is the greatest day I've ever known
	5:29pm Fredericks: ↳ Irwin @5:20 Interesting.
	5:30pm dustin james: whats the name of the song Ken is singing over ?
	5:30pm HyperDose: Agreed, Irwin. It's a very full mix
	♥ 5:38pm Irwin: ↳ dustin james @5:30 "Heart Are Trump" by Trio. It's a callback. So is this comment.
	5:38pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Right Off" by "Miles Davis" This was one of my late night driving 8-tracks back in the day.
	5:39pm Fredericks: ↳ Juli @5:29 Truly, Juli?
	♥ 5:41pm sydnius: ↳ Irwin @5:38 I thought we were playing ♠️
	5:43pm Juli: ↳ Fredericks @5:39 I approach every moment like it is new and full of possibilities so one never knows::: I love my moments and my days so much::every new day is the greatest day ::::}}}
	5:43pm dustin james: ↳ Irwin @5:38 Thanks Irwin / love that song
	5:44pm Juli: No one knows anything’s potential until they try it::::}}}
	5:44pm Anna: ↳ Song: "The Low End of Potential" by "Balk" Awesome song! On the album I think it's called "Low End of Potential"
	5:45pm Juli: ↳ Anna @5:44 Potential is everywhere at all times ♾
	5:45pm Juli: Oop that was supposed to be to everyone sorry Anne!
	♥ 5:46pm sydnius: ↳ Juli @5:45 ⚡️bzzt ow!
	5:46pm Juli: ↳ Anna @5:44 Anna ::::)
	♥ 5:46pm Irwin: ↳ Anna @5:44 You're correct, Anna. Thanks. Fixed.
	5:47pm Laura L: Thanks for another mighty fine show, Irwin and Gus... oh, and that guy Miles Davis too.
	5:48pm Glistener MW: I know this may be a controversial “hot take” as the kids call it, but Miles Davis > Van Morrison.
	♥ 5:48pm Handy Haversack: Not gonna lie, I dozed off in a sunbeam for a while. Thanks, Irwin! Glad to have been here. Later on, all!
	5:49pm Juli: Thanks Irwin!! Taking a walk and drinking cherry juice to your music selections very very enjoyable

	🎸 ♥ 5:55pm The Butterman: So good even Creamo Coyl would approve.
	5:55pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "Right Off" by "Miles Davis" I don't want this to end. Good lord

	3:22pm HyperDose: I'm confusing this for jazz

	♥ 3:23pm wormington hermit: this sounds like that Brattleboro sound
	♥ 3:23pm G: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @3:23 We're all primarily primate.

	3:32pm Mister Dobalina: The Penny Saver?
	3:34pm Andrea C from the app: Hey Doug! In this very moment I’m relaxing on the balcony. Listening to WFMU, having a beer, and looking at the stars. Didn’t feel this relaxed in a while. Must have been the massive humble pie I hate today. Got a lot of work to do. I guess that is a positive.
	3:34pm HyperDose: Gustavo. Tan caliente ahora, Gustavo.
	3:35pm Andrea C from the app: Ate?! Ohps.
	🎸 ♥ 3:35pm listener 126464: Loved Sábado Gigante.

	♥ 3:38pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Song: "Univisionary Gus" by "Gus Bodenheim" I think we all need a picture of this Puerto Rican
	3:38pm Too Obtuse: No Lente Loco??
	3:39pm listener Phillip in the Bronx: Gus sounds pretty good for a man who use to down a bottle of Hennessy Cognac every single day
	♥ 3:40pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ listener Phillip in the Bronx @3:39 No, he just drinks weasel juice
	3:41pm Mister Dobalina: Hennessy quivers
	♥ 3:43pm Matt from Springfield: Hi there, Irwin and 'winners! McKinley was on the $500 federal banknote, so Hoboken is worth 50 times as much? Or just deflating like a whoopy cushion?
	3:43pm Fredericks: wfmu.org...

	3:48pm Mister Dobalina: WoW, the whole crew is here.

	3:50pm maester gardeneers of Lansing Michigan: The reward for listening to wfmu all day…hearing it come full circle!
	♥ 3:50pm Irwin: ↳ maester gardeneers of Lansing Michigan @3:50 What's termed in the profession a callback.
	♥ 3:51pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Another Day, Another Lifetime / I Would Like To K... Nice arrangements - evidently The David were an L.A. psych garage band.
	♥ 3:52pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:51 One interesting LP then they disappeared.
	♥ 3:53pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "Another Day, Another Lifetime / I Would Like To K... This is their "You Set the Scene."

	♥ 3:58pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ G @3:56 Another Weekday, Another Band Lifetime..
	♥ 3:58pm Handy Haversack: And I have done. Heading home. Will catch the last hour from those friendlier shores. Thanks, Irwin! Until anon, anonners!
	3:59pm HyperDose: Safe travels, Handy
	4:01pm Bakester: I believe the David were high school students (!)
	♥ 4:03pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Bakester @4:01 We ALL were high school students
	♥ 4:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: High ! ...in School. Yes. Yes I was.
	♥ 4:06pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Song: "Stable Manifold" by "Jamie Saft, Steve Swallow, B... Jamie Saft plays a mean accordion
	♥ 4:07pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:04 Gotta soar as high as you would go..
	♥ 4:08pm Feldy: ↳ Song: "As Our Mother Rolls the Dice" by "Sunflowers" I was sure this was a Nirvana cover before the lyrics
	♥ 4:09pm coelacanth∅: hola Matt ...damn. i took a shower and missed the Ken Freedman trio
	♥ 4:09pm DjLorraine: ↳ Feldy @4:08 Similar thoughts here
	♥ 4:09pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Feldy @4:08 Hopefully Kurt's kid is getting royalty checks off it
	♥ 4:10pm coelacanth∅: aloha Feldy
	♥ 4:11pm Irwin: ↳ Andrew_in_WI @4:09 It's a good riff. Glad Sunflowers nicked it. Nirvana didn't know what to do with it.
	♥ 4:11pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:09 Definitely swoop back and take a listen. But, it does remind one of shower-singing.
	♥ 4:12pm coelacanth∅: i need a shower radio
	♥ 4:12pm sydnius: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:12 JBL clip, love it
	♥ 4:12pm Feldy: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:10 Cheers coelacanth∅!
	4:13pm Fred and Alan: Hello Everyone Fred and Alan
	♥ 4:13pm 12539: Irwin!
	♥ 4:14pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ sydnius @4:12 I second the JBL recommendation. Currently listening on one
	4:15pm Andrea C from the app: Good night everyone.
	♥ 4:19pm DjLorraine: ↳ Fred and Alan @4:13 I'm feeling much better. Satellitéee!
	♥ 4:20pm Tommy in Neversink: Despite your Astral Weeks blind spot you always play great stuff.
	♥ 4:20pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "RTZ Baby" by "Candace" Candace has some great bass lines.
	♥ 4:22pm coelacanth∅: ↳ sydnius @4:12 Thanks; that looks pretty sweet. jbl... probably sounds excellent. - but i can pick up 90.1 here so i only need a regular radio
	♥ 4:22pm Tommy in Neversink: I used sort of play Donna Lee on piano...didn't really master it by a long stretch. But it taught me a lot about soloing over flat 9 chords
	♥ 4:23pm Andrew_in_WI: @Irwin. I like Astral Weeks, but if you want some truly insufferable Van... try out Rave On, John Donne and Rave On pt 2.
	♥ 4:24pm ike̶̬̕: Cage match: editor vs. incoherent Taiwanese art abstract! Only ONE will leave ALIVE!!!!!
	♥ 4:24pm coelacanth∅: i guess this isn't Anthony Braxton's donna lee
	♥ 4:25pm Tommy in Neversink: ↳ Andrew_in_WI @4:23 Van has put out a lot of lame stuff . Especially in the 80s. He should have taken the best songs from all his 80s albums and made one good album.
	♥ 4:25pm coelacanth∅: (or Miles'?)
	♥ 4:26pm Asheville Jon: yay, another Anthony Braxton person!
	♥ 4:27pm Tommy in Neversink: ↳ Asheville Jon @4:26 Make that two
	♥ 4:27pm Karl Ward: ↳ Tommy in Neversink @4:25 I know just the man to oversee that compilation, and write the liner notes. He goes by the name Chusid. Let's hear his thoughts on the matter.
	♥ 4:28pm coelacanth∅: ha, yeah i Love Braxton! ... but i've only hear donna lee twice, a loooong time ago so i'm not sure i'd know a version when hearing one
	♥ 4:29pm Tommy in Neversink: ↳ Karl Ward @4:27 LOL !!!! you rule the FMU comment section today
	♥ 4:29pm Asheville Jon: Braxton people, please hold..........
	♥ 4:30pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Karl Ward @4:27 Van's Best of 80's - liner notes by Irwin - "Truly terrible. "
	♥ 4:30pm Ike: Irwin and I may often disagree, but we are united in an incandescent revulsion towards Astral Weeks. Van Morrison's bizarre squawking and caterwauling is for the birds. And by birds, I mean vultures, because he sings like something dying and croaking out its last breath.
	♥ 4:30pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Kingdom of Not" by "Rakestar" Hypnotic jazz cuts today!
	4:31pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Kingdom of Not" by "Rakestar" Swinging the Ra all around.
	♥ 4:32pm Karl Ward: ↳ Andrew_in_WI @4:30 2024 Premium: a beautiful "Best of Van Morrison 80s" compiled by Irwin. Box is absolutely gorgeous. And also, totally empty.
	♥ 4:33pm Ike: ↳ Karl Ward @4:32 I love it.
	♥ 4:33pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Karl Ward @4:32 That's good!
	♥ 4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: As I've sad before ...why not a whole dedicated Stream of its own for just Hate Listening ~ Commenting ? ...Clearly it'd be vigorously popular...
	♥ 4:34pm Asheville Jon: ok Braxton people: i have this three record set that i've been meaning to digitize. i haven't dug too deep, but i kinda recall that a few years ago when i tried to find it online (to listen to), it wasn't available. anyone ever heard it? here's a link to pics: flic.kr...
	♥ 4:35pm 12539: Thank you, volunteers!
	♥ 4:35pm Feldy: Be free, workers!
	♥ 4:35pm sydnius: Ken seems a bad influence no more playdates
	♥ 4:36pm Matt from Springfield: (Your) Work Makes (Me) Free!
	♥ 4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Work Will Set You FreeForm ...& we take a dark little turn in our playground of sounds...
	4:37pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Kingdom of Not" by "Rakestar" Definitely a Sun Ra cover: youtu.be...
	4:37pm Triple G: Hi Irwin, all. A bit late… did I miss the Ken singing medley portion of the show?
	♥ 4:38pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ sydnius @4:35 I bet he sets off firecrackers too! Listen to his radio show, it sounds like he does it in the studio.
	4:39pm Fan mail from some flounder: That is written above the gate to Auschwetz
	♥ 4:39pm Irwin: ↳ Fredericks @4:37 Rakestar does other Ra covers. Figured this was another.
	4:40pm Fredericks: ↳ Irwin @4:39 They did a nice interpretation.
	♥ 4:40pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Irwin @4:39 It's in the name. RAkestar
	♥ 4:41pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "August" by "Love" Love's drummer during this period was a maniac.
	♥ 4:42pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:41 Good maniac, or bad maniac? Or ma-ni-ac man-i-ac?
	♥ 4:43pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:42 Plays like he's possessed.
	♥ 4:43pm Karl Ward: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:42 What's he's saying is: he's a maniac, maniac, on the drums
	4:43pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "August" by "Love" This sounds better than I remembered. I generally prefer earlier Love stuff.
	♥ 4:43pm Brian in UK: Monica has played August & now Irwin.. How could you not.
	♥ 4:44pm Handy Haversack: Made it. Things seem still wild around here.
	♥ 4:47pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:44 Maniac, even. Drum demons driving down!
	4:48pm Triple G: this Vacant Lots is reminding me of a Kiwi Jr. song if they went a little harder
	♥ 4:48pm Andrew_in_WI: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:44 Maurice Sendik is planning a sequel based on Irwin's show
	♥ 4:48pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Song: "August" by "Love" Very nice
	♥ 4:48pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:47 Well, then I best get the drinks in.
	♥ 4:49pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Andrew_in_WI @4:48 Well! Then I best get the drinks in!
	4:50pm ryansterlingvirtue: Really enjoying this. Thanks as always Irwin
	♥ 4:51pm spodiodi: heh
	♥ 4:51pm Matt from Springfield: Arbeitration macht frei. It's just yours and mein kampf.
	♥ 4:53pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:49 You're the best at getting drinks! :) How bout a French martini today?
	♥ 4:53pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Andrew_in_WI @4:48 I've commented various times before that "the late Maurice Sendak" should do the book idea someone suggested.
	♥ 4:56pm Feldy: DJ ARB macht frei
	🎸 ♥ 4:56pm rrg: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:53 That's a good name for a band ("The Late Maurice Sendak").
	♥ 4:57pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:53 Bien sur!
	♥ 4:58pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:57 Merci beaucoups, 'andéy!
	♥ 4:59pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ rrg @4:56 It does sound nice - though I have wondered before about the legality of referencing other well-known people in band names, even if late.
	♥ 5:02pm Matt from Springfield: Rationalizing Shampoo Heads, opening for The Late Maurice Sendak this Friday at Monty Hall...
	♥ 5:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...there's pictures of Hendrix when he joined the 101st Airborne in the early 60s...
	5:03pm Mister Dobalina: Esta cancion es super chevre!
	5:03pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "August" by "Love" This (and two other Love songs) is in the recent Leslie Van Houten biopic "Charlie Says". The album apparently has enjoyed a comeback, what with “Always See Your Face” appearing in 2017’s Oscar-nominated “Lady Bird” (and it was previously in the film “High Fidelity”).
	♥ 5:04pm god∅: i'm on a man-date with Jimi
	♥ 5:05pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Rainy Day, Dream Away / Still Rainin' Still Dream... No rationalization needed for playing Hendrix.
	♥ 5:05pm DjLorraine: Does this cut have a wee bit of cut?
	♥ 5:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...@ least one biography says Hendrix was already concerned with some hair loss late in his life...
	♥ 5:06pm chresti: What it is!
	♥ 5:08pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:05 If he had lived to play the reunion tours, how do you think he would've swung with it? Keep the sides of the head with hair, or just shave it all when the baldness became apparent? And I believe his facial hair would definitely be kept, probably a 'stache with soul patch...
	♥ 5:09pm Kevin-san: ugh, I'd rather listen to Astral Weeks
	5:09pm Dean: No Trio?
	5:09pm HyperDose: ↳ chresti @5:06 Heard that soul sista!
	♥ 5:09pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Kevin-san @5:09 To each their WFMU...
	♥ 5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:08 Well - was always one of the great Hat Wearers of all time. But how Hendrix & Culture would've interacted after 18th Sept., 1970 we shall forevermore be speculating...
	♥ 5:13pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:10 Peter, Paul & Mary’s music are like Jimi’s in many ways. They all, turn, you, on
	♥ 5:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...also: All ArthurLee & Love is great.
	♥ 5:14pm MasterofPuberty: ↳ Song: "The Low End of Potential" by "Balk" I really thought they were saying "Mazel Tov"
	5:19pm ASpawnOfSatan: !!!!Gus!!!!
	5:19pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Gus's Halcyon Days" by "Gus Bodenheim" I recently saw a headline along the lines of "What went wrong with Blood Sweat and Tears?" I didn't click it.
	5:20pm HyperDose: likes and subscribes
	♥ 5:20pm Irwin: ↳ Fredericks @5:19 It's a new film, playing soon at Monty Hall.
