	11:08am Bob Barth: Carl's voice was one-of-a-kind
	11:09am Handy Haversack: ↳ Bob @11:07 The KZ! When K8 and I worked for Arbor Brewing in Ann Arbor, the staff party was always at Bell's. I boycotted it because the kitchen staff wasn't invited and hung out with them in the metropark instead, which was a much better party.
	11:09am Baja Joe: Good morning Michael and everyone listening
	11:09am Listener Baby: ↳ Michael Shelley @10:58 Are any of us ever really free, Baby?
	11:10am Bob: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:09 You worked for Matt & Renee? That would explain it. A couple of real dickbags.
	11:11am clarke: technical terms.
	11:12am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Ain't What It Used To Be" by "Dennis J. Leise" Makes me think of BillHaley & the Comets - who we used to think about as being before Elvis ...but are never recalled anymore...
	11:12am clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @11:09 punk back on campus??

	11:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'American Graffiti' Half Century about now reportedly.
	11:15am Mister Dobalina: Sister Rosetta Tharpe, such an amazing gem in the rough!!
	11:15am Handy Haversack: ↳ Bob @11:10 HA! I sure did, and you are NOT WRONG.
	11:15am Mister Dobalina: But, I'm pretty sure that is not her cover album, showing up on the pop up player.
	11:16am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Come By Here" by "Sister Rosetta Tharpe" O Jesus come by here
	11:16am Handy Haversack: ↳ Bob @11:10 Oh, man, we are in stitches over here.

	11:21am rx scabin: @clarke not bad. It is mrs. scabin's birthday, and we are celebrating by having a delicious sandwich from a superb Italian deli and ice cream made at the parlor (Yummies) in our town and sitting on our porch later. A perfect day. How are you?
	11:21am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Red Dragon Tattoo" by "Fountains Of Wayne" I don't listen to Fountains of Wayne enough.
	11:22am rx scabin: @clarke I suppose I could have said, Great. How are you?
	11:22am clarke: ↳ rx scabin @11:21 outstanding, sir!!
	11:22am Baja Joe: ↳ Song: "Red Dragon Tattoo" by "Fountains Of Wayne" Nice!
	11:22am clarke: we like the detes!!
	11:23am Handy Haversack: ↳ rx scabin @11:21 Happy birthday, Mrs. Scabin!
	11:23am clarke: ↳ rx scabin @11:22 no one can!
	11:24am clarke: my eyes is all screwy.
	11:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "When The Paragons Meet The Jesters (recorded for ... This is the cover ?! : cdn2.albumoftheyear.org... Not quite what I imagined ! ...more like the Village People ready to do a West Side Story dance routine ...so to speak...
	11:24am StuartR: ↳ McGroovey @11:21 Me neither
	11:25am McGroovey: ↳ clarke @11:22 I woke up earlier than usual because I had a headache, so I got up and had my morning coffee, but now the headache is mostly gone, but I probably can't sleep now because I've already had coffee. (That could make a decent white-boy-blues song, if there is such a thing.)
	11:25am Bill in W.O.: ↳ McGroovey @11:21 I still find it hard to enjoy them as I should since Adam Schlesinger died, and even as much as I love this it still kinda hurts.
	11:25am clarke: ↳ McGroovey @11:25 see Weird Al's First World Problems
	11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Bill in W.O. @11:25 Speaking of Covid. Geez what Songmaking Genius.
	11:26am clarke: no bevvies on the lp's!!
	11:26am Frank In Queens: ON TOP of one of my fave LPs?! Surely you jest....
	11:27am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:26 right-o mate. he shoots - he scores!
	11:27am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Song: "Red Dragon Tattoo" by "Fountains Of Wayne" Greetings fellow nerds...Damn I miss Adam Schlesinger. :(
	11:27am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:24 ...& I love motorcycle clothes as it happens...
	11:28am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:27 hi clarke
	11:28am Listener Baby: Barbie = Thumbs way up from the woman folk here at casa Baby.
	11:28am Christina Ginger: I saw Barbie and was pleasantly surprised. I think it’s a visually pleasing, make-you-think film.
	11:28am clarke: were you on the road, last few weeks?
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Baby Doll" by "Spiders, The" Always wanted to do a ClapTrack on something.
	11:29am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Baby Doll" by "Spiders, The" This is amazing
	11:29am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:28 Nope, just dealing with stuff.
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:29 ...like TheBeatles or Stooges...
	11:29am clarke: baby.... BAAABAAAY!!!
	11:29am McGroovey: ↳ Bill in W.O. @11:25 I actually made a podcast after he died, with a couple hours of covers of FoW songs, and songs by Adam S that were recorded by others. I really hadn't paid a lot of close attention to him or them until he died, and I went down a YouTube rabbit hole one night. www.mixcloud.com...
	11:30am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:29 stuff sux!!
	11:30am Listener Baby: ‘Ello Clarke
	11:30am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:30 I agree wholeheartedly. This stuff especially.
	11:30am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "The Last Thing On My Mind" by "Charlie Pride" Missing the first half hour of Michael Shelley's show was the last thing on my mind...
	11:30am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "The Last Thing On My Mind" by "Charlie Pride" It's not the leaving of Liverpool that pains me...
	11:31am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "The Last Thing On My Mind" by "Charlie Pride" There sure are a lot of versions of this.
	11:31am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:30 damn - sorry!! hope there is a movie catch-up to come??
	11:31am Hughie Considine: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:31 Maybe Robert Fripp and Toyah Wilcox will take a crack at it.
	11:31am listener phat in Lincoln: Hi all
	11:31am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:30 mawnin' suh!!
	11:31am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:29 ...except that I just discovered that it won't play from that link anymore. Maybe I need to pay them money or something. Typical.
	11:31am Handy Haversack: Found a live Charley Pride album for $4 in Michigan on this trip.
	11:32am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:31 There has definitely been time for that.
	11:32am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:31 They should!
	11:32am clarke: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:31 late riser!
	11:32am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:31 Good day, my man!
	11:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Schlesinger alone has long made me wanna punch a Covid Denier ...I'm a better Buddhist I don't think about it (not that being punched by me matters a great deal)...
	11:32am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:32 well.... WE'RE WAITING!!!
	11:33am Hughie Considine: I always love the Shelley comments board because in general the topic is music!
	11:33am Handy Haversack: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:32 "Desire is suffering!" is a great thing to shout as you punch a fascist in the nose.
	11:33am McGroovey: This might be the working link now. But don't listen now. www.mixcloud.com...
	11:34am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:32 and movies??
	11:34am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @11:32 Yes, very much yes.
	11:34am Bill in W.O.: ↳ McGroovey @11:29 Cool. Will check it out.
	11:35am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:34 Music, movies, food...the stuff of life. No one talking about their dodgy wi-fi connectivity...I'm just grousing now...
	11:35am drr: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:33 I thought it was movies.
	11:35am clarke: if Squints was not absent - we'd have a crew, here!
	11:35am Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @11:09 profound
	11:35am clarke: ↳ drr @11:35 i got a little list from this week.
	11:36am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Heartbeat" by "Knack, The" This is now my favorite Knack song.
	11:36am Listener Baby: Knack drummer always made himself known.
	11:36am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Heartbeat" by "Knack, The" The Knack did one thing well
	11:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Heartbeat" by "Knack, The" BuddyHolly - had the knack ? ...invented it...
	11:36am yerfriendpaul: Hey Michael, everyone!
	11:36am Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @11:13 She reports the 21st! Yikes!
	11:36am clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @11:36 you seen tha vid of him explaining his playing on My Sharona?? YT
	11:36am Listener Baby: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:35 Feeling that way right now.
	11:36am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:35 My wife and son and I watched "Arrival" the other night. Horrible Hollywood claptrap of the lowest order (ordure).
	11:37am clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:36 outstanding!!!
	11:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:35 Speaking of, Tim is doing another PURE MICHIGAN Drop-In tonight" wfmu.org...
	11:37am ojai John: Bruce Gary on drums?
	11:37am Bob Barth: ↳ Song: "Heartbeat" by "Knack, The" This has a Fleetwood Mac vibe.
	11:37am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:37 right-O - thanks for reminder!!
	11:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:37 Even better link: wfmu.org...
	11:38am Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @11:19 right!?
	11:38am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:37 yer a good man, charlie brown!
	11:38am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:38 We're gonna go see a couple of bands at 3 but hopefully will be back in time.
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Here 'Tis" by "High Numbers, The" ...KeithMoon gonna explode any second now...
	11:39am clarke: pure!
	11:39am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Here 'Tis" by "High Numbers, The" Now if these lads only stuck with this
	11:39am ?: Where is Michael?
	11:40am clarke: yesterday, the HIGH in nyc was the low for the day in nola. phew.
	11:41am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:33 Never mind. Other ones play, so maybe it's disable for having more than 3 songs by the same artist or something.
	11:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ PatrickMC @11:39 TheWho in prime just grab my adrenals & squeeze. It's a chemical reaction me & them...
	11:42am listener phat in Lincoln: Don't let me leave the house today
	11:42am McGroovey: ↳ clarke @11:40 It's mostly been a pretty mild summer in NYC this year. Most of the rest of the country has been in hell.
	11:42am gf2002: ↳ Song: "Surfin' Hootenanny" by "Al Casey" I wonder if Lee H put Al's amp in his famous empty water tank for this cut, it kind of sounds like it
	11:42am Bob: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:16 It's obviously of no interest to anyone else here but the stories abound. There's nobody they didn't screw over. And helped put Flint water famous Rick Snyder in the governors chair. Scum.
	11:44am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Roadcrew" by "Mike And The Moonpies" I need to learn that riff.
	11:44am clarke: ↳ McGroovey @11:42 honestly, it is atypical here - high pressure most of the summer (which keeps the storms away, so far!!), and a BREEZE in the mornings!! unhoid of.
	11:44am Frank In Queens: I believe the other two High Numbers recordings (Here 'Tis and Leaving Here) first appeared on the 30 Years Of Maximum R&B box set in 1994.
	11:45am clarke: ↳ Bob @11:42 interest!!!
	11:45am Bob Barth: REEEEEMIIIIXXXX!
	11:45am Handy Haversack: Mike? Moonpies? You guys OK?
	11:45am Folksnake: LOVE IT
	11:45am clarke: ↳ Song: "Roadcrew" by "Mike And The Moonpies" that was impressive.
	11:45am Bob: Did everyone get past the hype and see Oppenheimer? I thought it was probably a masterpiece
	11:45am Frank In Queens: And while of course while I love the 60s Who, I cannot wait until the new Who's Next box comes out.
	11:45am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Roadcrew" by "Mike And The Moonpies" Digging the PHYSC mix Baby
	11:45am Handy Haversack: ↳ Bob @11:42 Yeah, no fun to work for either. But there were some good folk working there otherwise. I also worked at the Red Hawk on ... State?
	11:46am PatrickMC: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:41 I totally get that. I just cant get past the white blues bombast at times
	11:46am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:45 MovieTime??
	11:46am Bob: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:45 Still a good meal
	11:47am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:46 Sure, but I gotta think because it's been awhile. I'll start with last night's feature, which was Bogdanovich's Targets.
	11:47am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Rock All Night" by "Shirley And Lee" Shirley has one of the great rock n roll voices
	11:47am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:45 whoah - i think i ate at Red Hawk.
	11:47am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:47 karloff!! yes!!
	11:47am Handy Haversack: ↳ Bob @11:46 Real professional outfit, that. I eventually had to choose between the two and stuck with Arbor because the manager there would let me pick my schedule (closing the tap room Fri. and Sat.).
	11:48am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "Rock All Night" by "Shirley And Lee" (Pre-clicked) Shirley & Lee ALL DAY!
	11:48am PatrickMC: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:36 Amy Adams? Liked it!
	11:49am Cooh John: Hello Michael and #1ers.
	11:49am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:47 We liked it. Earlier this week we watched Stormy Weather which featured Lena Horne, Bill Robinson, Cab Calloway, and the famous routine by the Nicholas Brothers.
	11:49am Hughie Considine: ↳ PatrickMC @11:48 It's not hard spending time in the company of Amy Adams, but I dunno...I just didn't believe a word of the dialogue. It's not how humans talk, I thought.
	11:50am drr: Earl Palmer has a great bit in his (incredible) book Back Beat about Shirley and Lee.He said Shirley sang "so sharp it would cut you!" But Lee always sang flat, so it evened out.
	11:50am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Flesh" by "Ken Nordine" Ken sounded particularly charged up on this one...
	11:50am Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:49 Yeah, I hated that movie. The original short story is fantastic, though.
	11:51am clarke: Richard Fleischer Week, here: The Clay Pigeon (1949), Trapped (1948), The Narrow Margin (1949)
	11:51am Bob: That Colors album is a big fave. A cut off that works great in any playlist, party or other spin
	11:51am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Rock and Roll Love Letter" by "Mitch Easter" Roller show!
	11:52am Hughie Considine: Now "Targets," there's a movie. The white bread serial killer is perfectly cast.
	11:52am McGroovey: ↳ Bill in W.O. @11:34 I don't thing it'll play from MixCloud anymore. Other episodes do play, so they disabled it. But I think I found my backup on a hard drive. I'm waiting for a big zip file of the Audacity project to unzip now... If you're interested, I can share it some other way.
	11:52am Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @11:36 For sure - but he had the goods!
	11:52am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:49 have you watched any Bogdanovich flims from after Paper Moon? i like.
	11:53am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Rock and Roll Love Letter" by "Mitch Easter" This is groovy.
	11:53am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:52 Just watched "Picture Show" with my kid and it was as devastating as ever.
	11:53am PatrickMC: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:49 Hmm, saw it so long ago can't recall the dialogue, but I usually cut some slack to sci fi movies in that dept. Thought the story was great tho
	11:54am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:36 i will not be seeking that out. ha ha.
	11:54am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:53 it sure IS - stands up well!!
	11:54am dymphnite: Was listening while doing yard work but meant to comment that Rehab was on point!
	11:55am swivs: I naively thought The Records wrote Rock and Roll Love Letter. Now I must find alllllll the versions.
	11:55am GR60: In 90's I used see Peter Bogdanovich at the NY Sports Club on the UWS. He worked out in jeans, a button down shirt and top siders. Classic.
	11:55am McGroovey: I'm tired, and I want to take a nap, but I also want more coffee. #whiteboyblues
	11:56am clarke: ↳ GR60 @11:55 i am a fan of the man.
	11:56am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:52 Sure. We've seen Nickelodeon which we liked enough even if it was imperfect, Saint Jack which i love, They All Laughed which was ok/meh, Mask which was pretty decent, Noises Off which i liked, The Thing Called Love which was ok, and Cat's Meow which I remember liking.
	11:56am clarke: ↳ GR60 @11:55 what no ascot??
	11:56am listener phat in Lincoln: Mitch Easter covering Rock n Roll Love Letter is peak #1 hits.
	11:57am drr: I'm glad we're talking about P.B., cause I got a book called "Peter Bogdanovich's Movie Of The Week" recently. It's 52 essays on classic movies, with a suggestion to watch one every week. Pretty sure he just dictated this book, it's full of chatty stories like "I was talking to Orson Welles the other day and he said early Lewis and Martin were so funny you'd piss your pants". The suggestions are great, though, and this week I watched one: Alfred's Hitchcock's amazing, wonderful North By Northwest. A top 5 movie for me.
	11:57am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:51 Were these on the TCM site? I feel like I've seen these listed somewhere recently.
	11:57am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:56 forgot he did Mask!
	11:58am Hubig Pie: Nicholas Bros jumps and leg splits were on full display in Sun Valley Serenade along with some vintage ski equipment.
	11:58am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:57 some on youtube and some on Internet Archive
	11:58am Frank In Queens: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:52 Twas quite good. Bogdanovich was surely shot out of a cannon with his early releases.
	11:59am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:58 also, while you were 'away' i recommended another Fleischer film (later one) called The Last Run
	11:59am Frank In Queens: ↳ drr @11:57 Cool, I'll have to seek this out.
	11:59am drr: ↳ Hubig Pie @11:58 Sun Valley Serenade: I think that's the movie that introduced Chattanooga Choo Choo (a song I've heard a million times, more even than Rocky Top). Am I right?
	12:00pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Hubig Pie @11:58 I'm not really a song and dance guy when it comes to movies, but those guys are astounding.
	12:00pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:58 my gosh - What's Up Doc? and Paper Moon?? faggeddaboudit.
	12:00pm Hughie Considine: On the Bogdanovich tip, the series on Polly Platt in "You Must Remember This" podcast was revelatory.
	12:00pm Handy Haversack: Es la verdad.
	12:00pm clarke: ↳ drr @11:59 yer not wrong, walter.
	12:01pm PatrickMC: A word of farewell and godspeed to William Friedkin, Bogdanovich's very worthy contemporary.
	12:01pm rx scabin: Thank you Michael and Everyone. I must go. It is time to get the Birthday Sandwich.
	12:01pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:58 True, and like most things shot out of a cannon, eventually you hit the ground.
	12:01pm Frank In Queens: Also finally had the time to watch Wages Of Fear, which was brilliant. And now in the wake of William Friedkin's death, I'm trying to track down Sorcerer.
	12:01pm Hubig Pie: ↳ drr @11:59 Correct-amundo. It's what the Nicholas Bros and Dorothy Dandridge danced too
	12:02pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "I Got You Babe" by "Etta James" Where's Sonny
	12:02pm clarke: ↳ drr @11:57 marty landau!
	12:02pm Bob: Bogdanovich did that epic Tom Petty doc too. It's not exactly a great movie for the average filmgoer but if you're a Petty fan, it's just a joy.
	12:02pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:01 yeah Sorcerer is proving difficult - but DRR has a dvd...
	12:02pm JG: This sonny and Cher cover is awesome
	12:02pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Bob @12:02 Yeah, I'm way behind on the music docs, but that's surely on my list.
	12:02pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "I Got You Babe" by "Etta James" #1 HIT!
	12:03pm McGroovey: ↳ rx scabin @12:01 I'm curious what your superb deli is. I don't know where the best places to eat are in Rochester anymore. I know a few, but some of my favorites are gone. I moved out 20 years ago.
	12:03pm drr: I had a great movie week: Ronin (caper/counter-terrorism flick with DeNiro, very good) Sorcerer (Friedkin's redo of The Wages Of Fear, terrific) North By Northwest (movies don't get much better) King Lear (BBC TV 1982 production with Michael Hordern and Brenda Blethyn; marvelous, Regan and Goneril make you want to boo and throw stuff at the stage/screen)
	12:04pm Bob: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:02 There might be different cuts but the long version is on Tubi, I think
	12:04pm Hubig Pie: What's Up Doc is pure joy. Ms. Streisand never looked so lovely.
	12:04pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:03 summer in nola!!
	12:04pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:04 not a babs fan, by any means, but this Film is brilliant!!
	12:04pm McGroovey: ↳ drr @12:03 Those are good. I used to see lots of movies before children came. Now we're out of the habit.
	12:05pm Bob: ↳ drr @12:03 Ronin is so much better than other heist flicks that are more celebrated. Like the vastly pretentious Heat
	12:05pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "The Kids Are Dancing" by "News, The" Winsome
	12:05pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:02 landau: "call it my woman's intuition". I don't have Sorcerer on DVD, I used a modern technique called BitTorrent to get a copy.
	12:05pm GR60: Watched Blood Simple last night. Still amazing, and timeless.
	12:06pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:05 ha ha / rats!!
	12:06pm drr: ↳ Bob @12:05 Boy you said it. I was so excited when I read about Heat, so I got a copy---and realized I had seen t before and forgot it completely.
	12:06pm clarke: ↳ GR60 @12:05 was thinking about that flick the other day - need re-watch. which cut you watch??
	12:06pm Mr. Jones: ↳ GR60 @12:05 Where did you see Blood Simple?
	12:07pm Hoboken Jack: Good afternoon, rockers!!
	12:07pm Bob: ↳ drr @12:06 But that blue filter. Genius.
	12:07pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:07 good day, sir!
	12:07pm GR60: HBO Max
	12:08pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:04 #1 hit movie
	12:08pm GR60: or whatever it's called now
	12:08pm egould: ↳ Song: "Highly Illogical" by "Leonard Nimoy" Spock was half human, after all.
	12:08pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:07 how Embarrassing, jack!!
	12:08pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "Highly Illogical" by "Leonard Nimoy" Tune in to hear this again when I fill in for Marty tonite!😂
	12:09pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:07 Hey, Jack.
	12:09pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Highly Illogical" by "Leonard Nimoy" But of course
	12:11pm Bob: The Oak Ridge Boys formula for gold
	12:11pm BillfromRockTavern: Did I hear you say the Leonard Nimoy record is over $30. I was in another room doing dishes.
	12:12pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "I'm Gonna Find You" by "Stonewall Jackson" Precursor to Every Breath You Take
	12:12pm clarke: ↳ Song: "I'm Gonna Find You" by "Stonewall Jackson" diggin' the snare sound!
	12:12pm egould: Speaking of Star Trek, Commander Riker was a Number 1 hit….
	12:13pm clarke: ↳ clarke @12:12 and the hi-hat. (he's givin' me the high hat!!)
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Two Little Kids" by "Peaches And Herb" dang! ne'er heard!!
	12:14pm McGroovey: ↳ BillfromRockTavern @12:11 Well, actually, new records are pushing $30 now. Inflation.
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Two Little Kids" by "Peaches And Herb" as Squints might say: GGY!!
	12:15pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:14 this is a point i was hoping to assail: i have been priced out of record-buying!
	12:16pm Don Gorden: Yo Mike whip me up some Charlie Crocket
	12:16pm clarke: loving up. together.
	12:18pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "I Need Your Sweet Inspiration" by "Pioneers, The" Some songs just better as blue beat
	12:19pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:14 i went to Peaches on magazine st, when Candy-O was in town - there were some SINGLE new albums for $50 !!!
	12:19pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Only In Love" by "Bug Club, The" The Bug Club! Coming back to town in November! 11/17 at the new Knitting Factory thing.
	12:20pm clarke: ↳ clarke @12:19 of course, Euclid is more down to earth than that.
	12:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @12:19 We got six albums in Michigan -- and would have doubled the cost if I hadn't talked myself out of the New Adventures in Hi-Fi deluxe reissue.
	12:20pm drr: Well, Peaches is ridiculous. "Funk" Davies took a picture of a used .38 Special album (not even Wild-Eyed Southern Boys) with a $40 price tag plastered on the sleeve.
	12:20pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:15 I remember in the early '90, looking for copies of a couple of Neil Young LPs that were out of print at the time. I felt lucky to find them for about $10 each, when decent copies of in-print (on CD) LPs were $2-5. $10 was about the price of a new LP at the time. According to my inflation calculator. $10 in 1990 is $24 now. $30 now was $13 in 1990.
	12:21pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Hush" by "Joe South" was going to mention joe south when you played that ben vaughn specialty!
	12:21pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ drr @12:20 Good lord
	12:21pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Hush" by "Joe South" Joe South!
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:20 yes, but i DID manage to find a David Kilgour i didn't have for 12$
	12:22pm McGroovey: ↳ drr @12:20 Yeah, I only buy used CDs at Peaches.
	12:22pm JG: This deep Purple cover is awesome
	12:22pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:22 They had no idea what it was.
	12:22pm Bob: ↳ clarke @12:13 Clear as mud.
	12:23pm Nutley Sam: I never heard a "Hush" I didn't like.
	12:23pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:20 OK, five records.
	12:23pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:20 and granted, we were spoiled by thrift store prices for the 00's, etc.
	12:24pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:19 I have to buy me a ticket! They were fantastic at Union Pool, as Handy and I and others raved at the time.
	12:25pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:22 All Kilgour LPs are great. "Here Comes the Cars" was my intro -- still perhaps my fave.
	12:25pm Handy Haversack: ↳ McGroovey @12:24 Seems like they never stop touring. All over the place, those guys.
	12:26pm Nutley Sam: Any female-fronted versions of "Hush?" Juniper?
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:25 agree with that assessment - this one was the purple one: Bobbie's A Girl
	12:27pm gf2002: If you want to know the real value of vinyl records especially good titles from the 60's and 70's, try to sell them to a dealer. They'll offer less than a buck a piece then the same albums often show up for 20-30 in the shop for the kids under 20 to buy. I get commerce and paying the bills but it's hilarious just the same
	12:27pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:19 Record pressers regret scrapping most of their pressing machines in the '90s, but their regrets must certainly be assuaged by the prices they can command now that pressing capacity is limited.
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:27 yes - and yes, GF - sad.
	12:28pm drr: "Your party was a three-day romp": finally. I've been wondering about that since about 1999.
	12:28pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:27 It's a good 'n. Was lucky to see the Clean at Cat's Cradle five or so years ago. In the back room, where all the legends play!
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:28 damn son! never Clean'd.
	12:29pm gf2002: The trendy thing now is cassettes. No joke. Taylor Swift is selling cassettes of certain albums for 20 bucks a pop. I wonder how the kids play them
	12:29pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:29 went down a Fleischer rabbit hole this week - read above!
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:29 also, MS during an airbreak was talking about cassettes.
	12:31pm McGroovey: And of course, CDs are much cheaper now than they were in early '90s. A new CD was $13-17 (in then-dollars). New CDs tend to be $8-12 now (in now-dollars). $12 now was about $5 in 1990, which was the price of a used CD they had too many used copies of.
	12:32pm John L: ↳ gf2002 @12:29 They still make new boom boxes that play cds and cassettes. I've noticed quite a few musicians on Bandcamp that only sell their music on cassette and download.
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:31 are new cd players still being manufactured??
	12:33pm Handy Haversack: ↳ John L @12:32 Cassette is the cheapest option these days, I think. We are certainly buying new tapes still. Sometimes I just can't do $30 for an LP plus $10 for shipping.
	12:33pm Bob Barth: ↳ Song: "Erase" by "They Might Be Giants" YEAHHHHH!!!! You played my ID! very cool Michael!
	12:33pm John L: ↳ clarke @12:32 I use my blu-ray player for cds.
	12:34pm Handy Haversack: ↳ John L @12:33 Same. Well, DVD player. I don't think we ever made it all the way to blu-ray.
	12:34pm Hughie Considine: i'm seeing used CDs for $5 a pop for clean remastered versions of quality stuff of all genres, $3 for less cool items. They sure sound good in the car.
	12:34pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:33 yeah, what is going on is that you have to absolutely LOVE the album to buy it - there is no speculation, anymore, sadly.
	12:34pm Michael Shelley: Juniper albums = equal sales of cd & lps...
	12:34pm listener phat in Lincoln: I have a friend who runs a cassette only label.
	12:35pm Frank In Queens: The true value of anything is what someone is willing to pay for it. When you sell your collection to dealers, you're essentially paying for the convenience of them taking it all off your hands in one fell swoop. If you want to get what it's truly worth, you gotta sell it piece by piece, which depending on the size of your collection can be both time consuming and inconvenient. The moral of the story is to not sell your records! Play them, enjoy them, and cherish them!
	12:35pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:34 I'm reluctant to shell out for a new LP right out of the gate unless it's like YLT.
	12:35pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @12:34 But boy when you see someone selling a new LP for $15, it sure is a thrill!
	12:36pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:35 well put.
	12:36pm McGroovey: ↳ gf2002 @12:29 I'm guessing that this is partly because a cassette can be made quicker and cheaper than a vinyl LP, and CDs (even quicker and cheaper to make) are un-cool. And in real life, face it, you probably play the mp3 download, not the LP or cassette anyway. They could sell you a Taylor Swift chunk of wood, and it would sound exactly the same as a cassette.
	12:36pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:35 or find a "curator", like me - it is working well!
	12:36pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:29 Three classics! The Narrow Margin is one of my favorites, people talk about the fight scene aboard a train in From Russia With Love as one of the best, but Narrow Margin had it down years prior. Love The Clay Pigeon too, I have to rewatch Trapped very soon! I'm overdue for a Noir marathon. Great recommendations!
	12:36pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:36 Good to hear!
	12:36pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:35 Or $18! theexbats.bandcamp.com...
	12:37pm luka: pretty sure it was “mr. stretch guy”
	12:37pm Webhamster Henry: I just got a Blu-ray/DVD reader for my computer, and there are lots of discounted media out there! and : doesn't fill up my disk drives. I usually get some kind of physical media when ordering from Bandcamp, both to give them a little more money ad to help them clear out that big box of physical media in the closet.
	12:37pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:36 Trapped is the weakest of them - but still dece.
	12:38pm dano59: Michael The Ronettes!
	12:38pm Bob: I've harped on this enough but I don't get paying thirty bucks for a reissue on labels like Yep-Roc and they sound like second generation cassettes...not cool. I also picked up that beautiful looking Velvet Crush vinyl edition of Teenage Symphonies and it just sounds like crap.
	12:39pm Hughie Considine: I was just in Brooklyn and the most I paid for a record was 25 for a used copy of Emit Rhodes's The American Dream and 30-something for Transit Byzantium by Bill Fox. At least they were both Shelley classics.
	12:39pm McGroovey: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:34 Yeah, I still buy CDs, because they're cheaper. When CDs started replacing LPs, I kept buying LPs, because they were cheaper, unless I could find a used CD, because a lot of LP pressings sounded horrible in the 1990s anyway. And I only bought a CD player when the Joy Division Substance comp came out, and the CD had twice as many songs...
	12:39pm clarke: ↳ Bob @12:38 i love that album, that's sad to hear about the pressing. i know pressing plants are, uhh, hard-pressed atm, but, still...
	12:39pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:39 Where did you shop? You were probably in the neighborhood! We're approaching record-store saturation here.
	12:40pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Bob @12:38 Gotta agree. I have the Nick Lowe Brentford Trilogy records on CD, and those are enough for me right now. If it was a different label reissuing those titles, I might've considered picking them up.
	12:40pm Bob: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:39 Big letdown. I love it too.
	12:40pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:39 i bet the issue is mastering more than pressing.
	12:40pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:39 Academy, Captured Tracks, and the Record Grouch. Greenpoint, baby! I love it.
	12:40pm John L: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:34 I don't upgrade all of my dvds to Bluray unless there are great extras or if the original dvd didn't look that great, but I've updated a few. I get films from overseas companies and many of them only make blu-rays. I do stream, but sometimes they picture is unwatchable. I just bought a blu-ray for Born To Win (1971) because the streaming version and old dvd version both looked like mud.
	12:40pm gf2002: In the late 90's there was a scene especially among underground punk and hardcore bands where they were still releasing on cassettes, total DIY. Then cassette players stopped being manufactured widely, CD's became cheaper to make, etc. But about ten years ago there was a buzz that cassettes were coming back in underground circles, and now it's mainstream and teenagers I know are fascinated by them. It's crazy, but for people releasing music still very cost effective. I still like CD's too.
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:40 We are a block from Record Grouch. Next time around, send up a flare!
	12:41pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:40 i understand yep roc uses an inferior pressing plant.
	12:41pm drr: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:40 Record Grouch financed my move to New Orleans.
	12:41pm dano59: I’m on the road to the Adirondacks but I had to weigh in on the original band for I could hear music
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:40 no - been hearing bad pressing stories galore.
	12:42pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Laura Lee" by "Racket Squad" Mama Tried is an excellent venue. Highly recommended. But IFF anyone is looking more north Brooklyn, we'll be seeing Discreet Charms (heavy FMU connection) and Famous Logs in History at 18th Ward this afternoon.
	12:42pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ gf2002 @12:40 I just got the cassette for Wobbly's new Additional Kids release!
	12:42pm Michael Shelley: The real loss is that singles are no longer an affordable way to get one song/one b side to the public.
	12:43pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:42 Oh. the only thing I have on YR is the Pure Pop For Now People reissue. I think it sounds OK; it's on, like, 360 gram vinyl.
	12:43pm Hughie Considine: ↳ drr @12:41 Wow! He (the grouch?) was great. We talked about the LPs I purchased just like it should be. Great place.
	12:43pm clarke: ↳ dano59 @12:41 good place to be!!
	12:43pm McGroovey: ↳ gf2002 @12:40 My teenage daughter buys used cassettes and CDs in thrift stores, because they're cheap. She buys things she's never heard of if she likes the cover. Yes, she's a future music hoarder. I point to my wall of records and say "someday this will all me yours!", and she smiles.
	12:44pm Bob: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:42 Totally. Seven bucks for a single that also won't sound very good. Third Man stuff is good.
	12:44pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:43 *be
	12:44pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:43 Rarely is mine the only WFMU shirt in that place.
	12:44pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:41 I will do that!
	12:44pm egould: ↳ Song: "Laura Lee" by "Racket Squad" Damn that was good!
	12:44pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:41 I don't know the details, but based on the YR vinyl I do own, this seems to check out. They're not the only ones though. Plenty of labels are getting their stuff pressed at crappy plants. It's really just the lack of quality control that's the issue. I know the demand is high and that the plants are slammed and probably working around the clock, but jeez, even the slightest effort to improve the pressing quality would go a long way in 2023. In my experience, off-center pressings are the biggest blight on vinyl today.
	12:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I hadda play some Gittar & I miss everything...
	12:46pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:44 I had a few happy fellow-FMU sightings while in town -- a nice gal on Rockaway Beach with an FMU trucker hat being the most memorable.
	12:46pm clarke: MS - while i TOTALLY agree with what you are saying about singles -- at the same time, anyone can hear ANYthing immediately, these days - which is unreal!!
	12:46pm gf2002: I've heard a lot of complaints especially regarding deluxe box sets about the quality of the pressings on new vinyl. And the pressing plants are backed up like mad with demand, I forget what the turnaround time is for short runs but it's very long. I think the demand overshot the actual capability of people who can run and maintain the equipment. I have to think a lot of the craftsmen who ran the equipment and knew how to do it are gone by now and it's hard to run the presses to meet demand today
	12:47pm Nutley Sam: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:42 Famous Logs and Racket Squad are related by marriage. You can do both!
	12:47pm Frank In Queens: Buyers would also rather buy LPs over singles.
	12:47pm Barefoot Jimmy G: So glad you are a part of my Saturday afternoon, Michael. Thanks!
	12:48pm clarke: understood, but frank makes the point of QC issues. they are just okaying shitty product.
	12:48pm Don Gorden: I gotta tell you Mike , I've been listing to you and Rex for the last ten years now, relatively a new comer to WFMU, I just love you guys, never a dull show , as far as I'm concerned even the guest hosts are great.
	12:49pm PatrickMC: The real tragedy is the loss of the cereal box cutout 45. And its cool cat successor, the flexidisc.
	12:49pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:46 Well, I'm holding you to it -- next time, I'll buy you a drink or a coffee. We can point admiringly at each other's FMU gear.
	12:49pm Kent: Hey Michael, the Ronettes originally sang I Can Hear Music. Reached #100 on Billboard in October 1966! For such a well-known group, such a short-lived hit career.
	12:49pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Nutley Sam @12:47 The world is rich!
	12:49pm clarke: i don't if it is a question of not being able to get a test-pressing?? i'm afraid to try, atm.
	12:49pm Akiva: I know the hat it’s like 15 minutes walk from my house. Never been there myself but mt parents have. Everything they’ve said seems to echo your sentiment
	12:50pm Handy Haversack: OK, going to take a quick shower and then get some groceries. Many thanks, Michael! Great show. Later on, Number One pals!
	12:50pm Don Gorden: Thank Mike
	12:50pm drr: ↳ PatrickMC @12:49 I've hung on to the EvaTone Soundsheet demo package I got from their Southeast rep in 1985.
	12:50pm gf2002: I miss the cereal box records! I still have one from The Monkees and some old Mad magazine flexi-discs. And Guitar Player magazine used to do the flexis too
	12:51pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:49 You're on -- looking at late September. as a possibility Will surely have the requisite duds on hand.
	12:51pm clarke: ↳ PatrickMC @12:49 you have hit upon It!!
	12:51pm McGroovey: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:46 Are you the Hugh I checked in at the door at Monty Hall last night? (My daughter and I were the ticket-takers)
	12:51pm drr: ↳ gf2002 @12:50 "It's A Super-Spectacular Day"? "Makin' Out"?
	12:52pm drr: ↳ gf2002 @12:50 Are there cereal-box CDs? If not, why not?
	12:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:44 ...well that's appropriate... : nationaldaycalendar.com...
	12:53pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:50 lest we not forget the flexi's that came with Bucketfull Of Brains fanzine!!
	12:53pm PatrickMC: ↳ drr @12:50 I still have a J5 cereal box 45 and a New Order flexidisc. All bases covered.
	12:53pm Hughie Considine: ↳ McGroovey @12:51 I am not -- and perhaps this moniker thing is a little silly at this point. My name is David. Hughie Considine was a character in one episode of "Room 222."
	12:53pm listener phat in Lincoln: www.solid-merch.com...
	12:53pm jmd: ↳ Song: "Me Neither" by "Tripwires, The" heck yes!
	12:53pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 BUSTED!!!
	12:54pm egould: Michael, you assembled today’s show with the skill and artistry of a master sushi chef. Arigato gozaimasu!
	12:54pm Hughie Considine: I feel somehow cleansed.
	12:54pm McGroovey: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 Well, the Hugh from last night seemed like a fine fellow. And our next door neighbor when I was a kid was named Hugh, and he was a fine fellow. So, Hugh=good fellow, in my experience.
	12:54pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 i thought it was the brother of tim and tom considine!
	12:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 ARMY OF DAVE ...one night about 2 A.M. all we Daves shall Rise ...& Dave will most definitely then Be Home mammajammaz...
	12:54pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Bob Barth @12:33 THANKS TO YOU!
	12:55pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 He wasn't that guy with the big red afro was he ?
	12:55pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:49 As far as I know, test pressings are readily available should you choose to want them pressed. But I don't know if they measure anything more than the sound quality of the pressing. I think a lot of the other issues occur during the pressing run of the album. For instance, I've had off-center pressings that I've exchanged for another copy that was pressed well. Same with non-fill.
	12:55pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:54 now that you have outed yourself, let me praise your podcast I Am The Fly - which every good boy deserves to listen to!!
	12:55pm gf2002: ↳ drr @12:51 I don't have that but somewhere in a box of junk I know I have the Graduation Day record, which is cardboard and it's Alfred's face. I remember having to put coins on it on the record player because it never played right!
	12:56pm Hughie Considine: ↳ McGroovey @12:54 It's a good-time name! David's kinda boring.
	12:56pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:55 yeah, but can you "stop the presses" if u don't like the test, anymore??
	12:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: HYOO - From the Germanic name Hugo, derived from the Old Frankish element hugi, Old High German hugu meaning "mind, thought, spirit" (Proto-Germanic * hugiz ).
	12:56pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:56 I believe so, otherwise what's the point of them?
	12:56pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:55 Thanks, Clarke. I'll drop in my podcast here. Please give a whirl! www.iamthefly.org
	12:57pm McGroovey: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:56 Yeah, there are lots of Davids, for sure, but most Davids I've known have also been fine fellows. I just googled your podcast. Cool.
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:56 that's what i was wondering.
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:56 like Barq's Root Beer (it's not root beer!): IT'S GOOD!!
	12:58pm DJ Johnny Cool: These are the Daves I know I know, these are the Daves I know.
	12:58pm Hughie Considine: ↳ McGroovey @12:57 Good to hear - hope you dig.
	12:58pm clarke: The Daves - love em!
	12:58pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:57 It's better than bad/ it's good
	12:59pm luka: thank u 4 the no. 1s
	12:59pm Greg from ZONE 5: Great stuff today, MS!
	12:59pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:57 I believe they do the test pressings after the plates are created. If you don't like the sound of the test pressings, they gotta re-plate and try again.
	12:59pm ScottinDenver: I believe this is the definition of power cord.
	12:59pm Peter Horvath: Have a great Saturday, #1’ers
	12:59pm clarke: thnx monsieur shelley!!
	12:59pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:59 but then you get further back in the line, nowdays.
	1:00pm DG: That's troubling about the Nick Lowe reissues. Wanted to get the full/official version of "Jesus of Cool" just to get all the extra stuff, now I'm re-thinking it. Is the sound OK?
	1:00pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:59 Well, yeah.
	1:00pm clarke: my eyes - not so good. good nite. plonk!
	1:00pm Hughie Considine: That was swell - thanks, Michael!
	1:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ MS ~

	11:15am Mister Dobalina: Sister Rosetta Tharpe, such an amazing gem in the rough!!
	11:15am Handy Haversack: ↳ Bob @11:10 HA! I sure did, and you are NOT WRONG.
	11:15am Mister Dobalina: But, I'm pretty sure that is not her cover album, showing up on the pop up player.
	11:16am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Come By Here" by "Sister Rosetta Tharpe" O Jesus come by here
	11:16am Handy Haversack: ↳ Bob @11:10 Oh, man, we are in stitches over here.
	11:16am Todd from RVA: Good Morning Michael!! Hey going to see The Association today. Looks to be 3-4 of the original members. Can you play one of your fave tracks from them to get me in the mood?

	11:21am rx scabin: @clarke not bad. It is mrs. scabin's birthday, and we are celebrating by having a delicious sandwich from a superb Italian deli and ice cream made at the parlor (Yummies) in our town and sitting on our porch later. A perfect day. How are you?
	11:21am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Red Dragon Tattoo" by "Fountains Of Wayne" I don't listen to Fountains of Wayne enough.
	11:22am rx scabin: @clarke I suppose I could have said, Great. How are you?
	11:22am clarke: ↳ rx scabin @11:21 outstanding, sir!!

	11:24am StuartR: ↳ McGroovey @11:21 Me neither
	11:25am McGroovey: ↳ clarke @11:22 I woke up earlier than usual because I had a headache, so I got up and had my morning coffee, but now the headache is mostly gone, but I probably can't sleep now because I've already had coffee. (That could make a decent white-boy-blues song, if there is such a thing.)
	11:25am Bill in W.O.: ↳ McGroovey @11:21 I still find it hard to enjoy them as I should since Adam Schlesinger died, and even as much as I love this it still kinda hurts.
	11:25am clarke: ↳ McGroovey @11:25 see Weird Al's First World Problems
	11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Bill in W.O. @11:25 Speaking of Covid. Geez what Songmaking Genius.

	11:28am Listener Baby: Barbie = Thumbs way up from the woman folk here at casa Baby.
	11:28am Christina Ginger: I saw Barbie and was pleasantly surprised. I think it’s a visually pleasing, make-you-think film.
	11:28am clarke: were you on the road, last few weeks?
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Baby Doll" by "Spiders, The" Always wanted to do a ClapTrack on something.
	11:29am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Baby Doll" by "Spiders, The" This is amazing
	11:29am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:28 Nope, just dealing with stuff.
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:29 ...like TheBeatles or Stooges...
	11:29am clarke: baby.... BAAABAAAY!!!
	11:29am McGroovey: ↳ Bill in W.O. @11:25 I actually made a podcast after he died, with a couple hours of covers of FoW songs, and songs by Adam S that were recorded by others. I really hadn't paid a lot of close attention to him or them until he died, and I went down a YouTube rabbit hole one night. www.mixcloud.com...
	11:30am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:29 stuff sux!!
	11:30am Listener Baby: ‘Ello Clarke
	11:30am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:30 I agree wholeheartedly. This stuff especially.
	11:30am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "The Last Thing On My Mind" by "Charlie Pride" Missing the first half hour of Michael Shelley's show was the last thing on my mind...
	11:30am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "The Last Thing On My Mind" by "Charlie Pride" It's not the leaving of Liverpool that pains me...
	11:31am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "The Last Thing On My Mind" by "Charlie Pride" There sure are a lot of versions of this.
	11:31am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:30 damn - sorry!! hope there is a movie catch-up to come??
	11:31am Hughie Considine: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:31 Maybe Robert Fripp and Toyah Wilcox will take a crack at it.
	11:31am listener phat in Lincoln: Hi all
	11:31am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:30 mawnin' suh!!
	11:31am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:29 ...except that I just discovered that it won't play from that link anymore. Maybe I need to pay them money or something. Typical.
	11:31am Handy Haversack: Found a live Charley Pride album for $4 in Michigan on this trip.
	11:32am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:31 There has definitely been time for that.
	11:32am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:31 They should!

	11:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Schlesinger alone has long made me wanna punch a Covid Denier ...I'm a better Buddhist I don't think about it (not that being punched by me matters a great deal)...
	11:32am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:32 well.... WE'RE WAITING!!!
	11:33am Hughie Considine: I always love the Shelley comments board because in general the topic is music!
	11:33am Handy Haversack: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:32 "Desire is suffering!" is a great thing to shout as you punch a fascist in the nose.
	11:33am McGroovey: This might be the working link now. But don't listen now. www.mixcloud.com...
	11:34am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:32 and movies??
	11:34am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @11:32 Yes, very much yes.
	11:34am Bill in W.O.: ↳ McGroovey @11:29 Cool. Will check it out.
	11:35am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:34 Music, movies, food...the stuff of life. No one talking about their dodgy wi-fi connectivity...I'm just grousing now...
	11:35am drr: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:33 I thought it was movies.
	11:35am clarke: if Squints was not absent - we'd have a crew, here!
	11:35am Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @11:09 profound
	11:35am clarke: ↳ drr @11:35 i got a little list from this week.
	11:36am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Heartbeat" by "Knack, The" This is now my favorite Knack song.
	11:36am Listener Baby: Knack drummer always made himself known.
	11:36am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Heartbeat" by "Knack, The" The Knack did one thing well
	11:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Heartbeat" by "Knack, The" BuddyHolly - had the knack ? ...invented it...
	11:36am yerfriendpaul: Hey Michael, everyone!
	11:36am Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @11:13 She reports the 21st! Yikes!
	11:36am clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @11:36 you seen tha vid of him explaining his playing on My Sharona?? YT
	11:36am Listener Baby: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:35 Feeling that way right now.
	11:36am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:35 My wife and son and I watched "Arrival" the other night. Horrible Hollywood claptrap of the lowest order (ordure).
	11:37am clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:36 outstanding!!!
	11:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:35 Speaking of, Tim is doing another PURE MICHIGAN Drop-In tonight" wfmu.org...
	11:37am ojai John: Bruce Gary on drums?
	11:37am Bob Barth: ↳ Song: "Heartbeat" by "Knack, The" This has a Fleetwood Mac vibe.
	11:37am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:37 right-O - thanks for reminder!!
	11:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:37 Even better link: wfmu.org...
	11:38am Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @11:19 right!?
	11:38am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:37 yer a good man, charlie brown!
	11:38am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:38 We're gonna go see a couple of bands at 3 but hopefully will be back in time.
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Here 'Tis" by "High Numbers, The" ...KeithMoon gonna explode any second now...
	11:39am clarke: pure!
	11:39am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Here 'Tis" by "High Numbers, The" Now if these lads only stuck with this
	11:39am ?: Where is Michael?
	11:40am clarke: yesterday, the HIGH in nyc was the low for the day in nola. phew.
	11:41am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:33 Never mind. Other ones play, so maybe it's disable for having more than 3 songs by the same artist or something.
	11:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ PatrickMC @11:39 TheWho in prime just grab my adrenals & squeeze. It's a chemical reaction me & them...
	11:42am listener phat in Lincoln: Don't let me leave the house today
	11:42am McGroovey: ↳ clarke @11:40 It's mostly been a pretty mild summer in NYC this year. Most of the rest of the country has been in hell.
	11:42am gf2002: ↳ Song: "Surfin' Hootenanny" by "Al Casey" I wonder if Lee H put Al's amp in his famous empty water tank for this cut, it kind of sounds like it
	11:42am Bob: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:16 It's obviously of no interest to anyone else here but the stories abound. There's nobody they didn't screw over. And helped put Flint water famous Rick Snyder in the governors chair. Scum.
	11:44am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Roadcrew" by "Mike And The Moonpies" I need to learn that riff.
	11:44am clarke: ↳ McGroovey @11:42 honestly, it is atypical here - high pressure most of the summer (which keeps the storms away, so far!!), and a BREEZE in the mornings!! unhoid of.
	11:44am Frank In Queens: I believe the other two High Numbers recordings (Here 'Tis and Leaving Here) first appeared on the 30 Years Of Maximum R&B box set in 1994.
	11:45am clarke: ↳ Bob @11:42 interest!!!
	11:45am Bob Barth: REEEEEMIIIIXXXX!
	11:45am Handy Haversack: Mike? Moonpies? You guys OK?
	11:45am Folksnake: LOVE IT
	11:45am clarke: ↳ Song: "Roadcrew" by "Mike And The Moonpies" that was impressive.
	11:45am Bob: Did everyone get past the hype and see Oppenheimer? I thought it was probably a masterpiece
	11:45am Frank In Queens: And while of course while I love the 60s Who, I cannot wait until the new Who's Next box comes out.
	11:45am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Roadcrew" by "Mike And The Moonpies" Digging the PHYSC mix Baby
	11:45am Handy Haversack: ↳ Bob @11:42 Yeah, no fun to work for either. But there were some good folk working there otherwise. I also worked at the Red Hawk on ... State?
	11:46am PatrickMC: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:41 I totally get that. I just cant get past the white blues bombast at times
	11:46am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:45 MovieTime??
	11:46am Bob: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:45 Still a good meal
	11:47am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:46 Sure, but I gotta think because it's been awhile. I'll start with last night's feature, which was Bogdanovich's Targets.
	11:47am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Rock All Night" by "Shirley And Lee" Shirley has one of the great rock n roll voices
	11:47am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:45 whoah - i think i ate at Red Hawk.
	11:47am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:47 karloff!! yes!!
	11:47am Handy Haversack: ↳ Bob @11:46 Real professional outfit, that. I eventually had to choose between the two and stuck with Arbor because the manager there would let me pick my schedule (closing the tap room Fri. and Sat.).
	11:48am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "Rock All Night" by "Shirley And Lee" (Pre-clicked) Shirley & Lee ALL DAY!
	11:48am PatrickMC: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:36 Amy Adams? Liked it!
	11:49am Cooh John: Hello Michael and #1ers.
	11:49am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:47 We liked it. Earlier this week we watched Stormy Weather which featured Lena Horne, Bill Robinson, Cab Calloway, and the famous routine by the Nicholas Brothers.
	11:49am Hughie Considine: ↳ PatrickMC @11:48 It's not hard spending time in the company of Amy Adams, but I dunno...I just didn't believe a word of the dialogue. It's not how humans talk, I thought.
	11:50am drr: Earl Palmer has a great bit in his (incredible) book Back Beat about Shirley and Lee.He said Shirley sang "so sharp it would cut you!" But Lee always sang flat, so it evened out.
	11:50am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Flesh" by "Ken Nordine" Ken sounded particularly charged up on this one...
	11:50am Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:49 Yeah, I hated that movie. The original short story is fantastic, though.
	11:51am clarke: Richard Fleischer Week, here: The Clay Pigeon (1949), Trapped (1948), The Narrow Margin (1949)
	11:51am Bob: That Colors album is a big fave. A cut off that works great in any playlist, party or other spin
	11:51am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Rock and Roll Love Letter" by "Mitch Easter" Roller show!
	11:52am Hughie Considine: Now "Targets," there's a movie. The white bread serial killer is perfectly cast.
	11:52am McGroovey: ↳ Bill in W.O. @11:34 I don't thing it'll play from MixCloud anymore. Other episodes do play, so they disabled it. But I think I found my backup on a hard drive. I'm waiting for a big zip file of the Audacity project to unzip now... If you're interested, I can share it some other way.
	11:52am Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @11:36 For sure - but he had the goods!
	11:52am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:49 have you watched any Bogdanovich flims from after Paper Moon? i like.
	11:53am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Rock and Roll Love Letter" by "Mitch Easter" This is groovy.
	11:53am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:52 Just watched "Picture Show" with my kid and it was as devastating as ever.
	11:53am PatrickMC: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:49 Hmm, saw it so long ago can't recall the dialogue, but I usually cut some slack to sci fi movies in that dept. Thought the story was great tho
	11:54am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:36 i will not be seeking that out. ha ha.
	11:54am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:53 it sure IS - stands up well!!
	11:54am dymphnite: Was listening while doing yard work but meant to comment that Rehab was on point!
	11:55am swivs: I naively thought The Records wrote Rock and Roll Love Letter. Now I must find alllllll the versions.
	11:55am GR60: In 90's I used see Peter Bogdanovich at the NY Sports Club on the UWS. He worked out in jeans, a button down shirt and top siders. Classic.
	11:55am McGroovey: I'm tired, and I want to take a nap, but I also want more coffee. #whiteboyblues
	11:56am clarke: ↳ GR60 @11:55 i am a fan of the man.
	11:56am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:52 Sure. We've seen Nickelodeon which we liked enough even if it was imperfect, Saint Jack which i love, They All Laughed which was ok/meh, Mask which was pretty decent, Noises Off which i liked, The Thing Called Love which was ok, and Cat's Meow which I remember liking.
	11:56am clarke: ↳ GR60 @11:55 what no ascot??
	11:56am listener phat in Lincoln: Mitch Easter covering Rock n Roll Love Letter is peak #1 hits.
	11:57am drr: I'm glad we're talking about P.B., cause I got a book called "Peter Bogdanovich's Movie Of The Week" recently. It's 52 essays on classic movies, with a suggestion to watch one every week. Pretty sure he just dictated this book, it's full of chatty stories like "I was talking to Orson Welles the other day and he said early Lewis and Martin were so funny you'd piss your pants". The suggestions are great, though, and this week I watched one: Alfred's Hitchcock's amazing, wonderful North By Northwest. A top 5 movie for me.
	11:57am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:51 Were these on the TCM site? I feel like I've seen these listed somewhere recently.
	11:57am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:56 forgot he did Mask!
	11:58am Hubig Pie: Nicholas Bros jumps and leg splits were on full display in Sun Valley Serenade along with some vintage ski equipment.
	11:58am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:57 some on youtube and some on Internet Archive
	11:58am Frank In Queens: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:52 Twas quite good. Bogdanovich was surely shot out of a cannon with his early releases.
	11:59am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:58 also, while you were 'away' i recommended another Fleischer film (later one) called The Last Run
	11:59am Frank In Queens: ↳ drr @11:57 Cool, I'll have to seek this out.
	11:59am drr: ↳ Hubig Pie @11:58 Sun Valley Serenade: I think that's the movie that introduced Chattanooga Choo Choo (a song I've heard a million times, more even than Rocky Top). Am I right?
	12:00pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Hubig Pie @11:58 I'm not really a song and dance guy when it comes to movies, but those guys are astounding.
	12:00pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:58 my gosh - What's Up Doc? and Paper Moon?? faggeddaboudit.
	12:00pm Hughie Considine: On the Bogdanovich tip, the series on Polly Platt in "You Must Remember This" podcast was revelatory.
	12:00pm Handy Haversack: Es la verdad.
	12:00pm clarke: ↳ drr @11:59 yer not wrong, walter.
	12:01pm PatrickMC: A word of farewell and godspeed to William Friedkin, Bogdanovich's very worthy contemporary.
	12:01pm rx scabin: Thank you Michael and Everyone. I must go. It is time to get the Birthday Sandwich.
	12:01pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:58 True, and like most things shot out of a cannon, eventually you hit the ground.
	12:01pm Frank In Queens: Also finally had the time to watch Wages Of Fear, which was brilliant. And now in the wake of William Friedkin's death, I'm trying to track down Sorcerer.
	12:01pm Hubig Pie: ↳ drr @11:59 Correct-amundo. It's what the Nicholas Bros and Dorothy Dandridge danced too
	12:02pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "I Got You Babe" by "Etta James" Where's Sonny
	12:02pm clarke: ↳ drr @11:57 marty landau!
	12:02pm Bob: Bogdanovich did that epic Tom Petty doc too. It's not exactly a great movie for the average filmgoer but if you're a Petty fan, it's just a joy.
	12:02pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:01 yeah Sorcerer is proving difficult - but DRR has a dvd...
	12:02pm JG: This sonny and Cher cover is awesome
	12:02pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Bob @12:02 Yeah, I'm way behind on the music docs, but that's surely on my list.
	12:02pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "I Got You Babe" by "Etta James" #1 HIT!
	12:03pm McGroovey: ↳ rx scabin @12:01 I'm curious what your superb deli is. I don't know where the best places to eat are in Rochester anymore. I know a few, but some of my favorites are gone. I moved out 20 years ago.
	12:03pm drr: I had a great movie week: Ronin (caper/counter-terrorism flick with DeNiro, very good) Sorcerer (Friedkin's redo of The Wages Of Fear, terrific) North By Northwest (movies don't get much better) King Lear (BBC TV 1982 production with Michael Hordern and Brenda Blethyn; marvelous, Regan and Goneril make you want to boo and throw stuff at the stage/screen)
	12:04pm Bob: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:02 There might be different cuts but the long version is on Tubi, I think
	12:04pm Hubig Pie: What's Up Doc is pure joy. Ms. Streisand never looked so lovely.
	12:04pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:03 summer in nola!!
	12:04pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:04 not a babs fan, by any means, but this Film is brilliant!!
	12:04pm McGroovey: ↳ drr @12:03 Those are good. I used to see lots of movies before children came. Now we're out of the habit.
	12:05pm Bob: ↳ drr @12:03 Ronin is so much better than other heist flicks that are more celebrated. Like the vastly pretentious Heat
	12:05pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "The Kids Are Dancing" by "News, The" Winsome
	12:05pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:02 landau: "call it my woman's intuition". I don't have Sorcerer on DVD, I used a modern technique called BitTorrent to get a copy.
	12:05pm GR60: Watched Blood Simple last night. Still amazing, and timeless.
	12:06pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:05 ha ha / rats!!
	12:06pm drr: ↳ Bob @12:05 Boy you said it. I was so excited when I read about Heat, so I got a copy---and realized I had seen t before and forgot it completely.
	12:06pm clarke: ↳ GR60 @12:05 was thinking about that flick the other day - need re-watch. which cut you watch??
	12:06pm Mr. Jones: ↳ GR60 @12:05 Where did you see Blood Simple?
	12:07pm Hoboken Jack: Good afternoon, rockers!!
	12:07pm Bob: ↳ drr @12:06 But that blue filter. Genius.
	12:07pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:07 good day, sir!
	12:07pm GR60: HBO Max
	12:08pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:04 #1 hit movie
	12:08pm GR60: or whatever it's called now
	12:08pm egould: ↳ Song: "Highly Illogical" by "Leonard Nimoy" Spock was half human, after all.
	12:08pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:07 how Embarrassing, jack!!
	12:08pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "Highly Illogical" by "Leonard Nimoy" Tune in to hear this again when I fill in for Marty tonite!😂
	12:09pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:07 Hey, Jack.
	12:09pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Highly Illogical" by "Leonard Nimoy" But of course
	12:11pm Bob: The Oak Ridge Boys formula for gold
	12:11pm BillfromRockTavern: Did I hear you say the Leonard Nimoy record is over $30. I was in another room doing dishes.
	12:12pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "I'm Gonna Find You" by "Stonewall Jackson" Precursor to Every Breath You Take
	12:12pm clarke: ↳ Song: "I'm Gonna Find You" by "Stonewall Jackson" diggin' the snare sound!
	12:12pm egould: Speaking of Star Trek, Commander Riker was a Number 1 hit….
	12:13pm clarke: ↳ clarke @12:12 and the hi-hat. (he's givin' me the high hat!!)
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Two Little Kids" by "Peaches And Herb" dang! ne'er heard!!
	12:14pm McGroovey: ↳ BillfromRockTavern @12:11 Well, actually, new records are pushing $30 now. Inflation.
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Two Little Kids" by "Peaches And Herb" as Squints might say: GGY!!
	12:15pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:14 this is a point i was hoping to assail: i have been priced out of record-buying!
	12:16pm Don Gorden: Yo Mike whip me up some Charlie Crocket
	12:16pm clarke: loving up. together.
	12:18pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "I Need Your Sweet Inspiration" by "Pioneers, The" Some songs just better as blue beat
	12:19pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:14 i went to Peaches on magazine st, when Candy-O was in town - there were some SINGLE new albums for $50 !!!
	12:19pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Only In Love" by "Bug Club, The" The Bug Club! Coming back to town in November! 11/17 at the new Knitting Factory thing.
	12:20pm clarke: ↳ clarke @12:19 of course, Euclid is more down to earth than that.
	12:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @12:19 We got six albums in Michigan -- and would have doubled the cost if I hadn't talked myself out of the New Adventures in Hi-Fi deluxe reissue.
	12:20pm drr: Well, Peaches is ridiculous. "Funk" Davies took a picture of a used .38 Special album (not even Wild-Eyed Southern Boys) with a $40 price tag plastered on the sleeve.
	12:20pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:15 I remember in the early '90, looking for copies of a couple of Neil Young LPs that were out of print at the time. I felt lucky to find them for about $10 each, when decent copies of in-print (on CD) LPs were $2-5. $10 was about the price of a new LP at the time. According to my inflation calculator. $10 in 1990 is $24 now. $30 now was $13 in 1990.
	12:21pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Hush" by "Joe South" was going to mention joe south when you played that ben vaughn specialty!
	12:21pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ drr @12:20 Good lord
	12:21pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Hush" by "Joe South" Joe South!
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:20 yes, but i DID manage to find a David Kilgour i didn't have for 12$
	12:22pm McGroovey: ↳ drr @12:20 Yeah, I only buy used CDs at Peaches.
	12:22pm JG: This deep Purple cover is awesome
	12:22pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:22 They had no idea what it was.
	12:22pm Bob: ↳ clarke @12:13 Clear as mud.
	12:23pm Nutley Sam: I never heard a "Hush" I didn't like.
	12:23pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:20 OK, five records.
	12:23pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:20 and granted, we were spoiled by thrift store prices for the 00's, etc.
	12:24pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:19 I have to buy me a ticket! They were fantastic at Union Pool, as Handy and I and others raved at the time.
	12:25pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:22 All Kilgour LPs are great. "Here Comes the Cars" was my intro -- still perhaps my fave.
	12:25pm Handy Haversack: ↳ McGroovey @12:24 Seems like they never stop touring. All over the place, those guys.
	12:26pm Nutley Sam: Any female-fronted versions of "Hush?" Juniper?
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:25 agree with that assessment - this one was the purple one: Bobbie's A Girl
	12:27pm gf2002: If you want to know the real value of vinyl records especially good titles from the 60's and 70's, try to sell them to a dealer. They'll offer less than a buck a piece then the same albums often show up for 20-30 in the shop for the kids under 20 to buy. I get commerce and paying the bills but it's hilarious just the same
	12:27pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:19 Record pressers regret scrapping most of their pressing machines in the '90s, but their regrets must certainly be assuaged by the prices they can command now that pressing capacity is limited.
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:27 yes - and yes, GF - sad.
	12:28pm drr: "Your party was a three-day romp": finally. I've been wondering about that since about 1999.
	12:28pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:27 It's a good 'n. Was lucky to see the Clean at Cat's Cradle five or so years ago. In the back room, where all the legends play!
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:28 damn son! never Clean'd.
	12:29pm gf2002: The trendy thing now is cassettes. No joke. Taylor Swift is selling cassettes of certain albums for 20 bucks a pop. I wonder how the kids play them
	12:29pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:29 went down a Fleischer rabbit hole this week - read above!
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:29 also, MS during an airbreak was talking about cassettes.
	12:31pm McGroovey: And of course, CDs are much cheaper now than they were in early '90s. A new CD was $13-17 (in then-dollars). New CDs tend to be $8-12 now (in now-dollars). $12 now was about $5 in 1990, which was the price of a used CD they had too many used copies of.
	12:32pm John L: ↳ gf2002 @12:29 They still make new boom boxes that play cds and cassettes. I've noticed quite a few musicians on Bandcamp that only sell their music on cassette and download.
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:31 are new cd players still being manufactured??
	12:33pm Handy Haversack: ↳ John L @12:32 Cassette is the cheapest option these days, I think. We are certainly buying new tapes still. Sometimes I just can't do $30 for an LP plus $10 for shipping.
	12:33pm Bob Barth: ↳ Song: "Erase" by "They Might Be Giants" YEAHHHHH!!!! You played my ID! very cool Michael!
	12:33pm John L: ↳ clarke @12:32 I use my blu-ray player for cds.
	12:34pm Handy Haversack: ↳ John L @12:33 Same. Well, DVD player. I don't think we ever made it all the way to blu-ray.
	12:34pm Hughie Considine: i'm seeing used CDs for $5 a pop for clean remastered versions of quality stuff of all genres, $3 for less cool items. They sure sound good in the car.
	12:34pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:33 yeah, what is going on is that you have to absolutely LOVE the album to buy it - there is no speculation, anymore, sadly.
	12:34pm Michael Shelley: Juniper albums = equal sales of cd & lps...
	12:34pm listener phat in Lincoln: I have a friend who runs a cassette only label.
	12:35pm Frank In Queens: The true value of anything is what someone is willing to pay for it. When you sell your collection to dealers, you're essentially paying for the convenience of them taking it all off your hands in one fell swoop. If you want to get what it's truly worth, you gotta sell it piece by piece, which depending on the size of your collection can be both time consuming and inconvenient. The moral of the story is to not sell your records! Play them, enjoy them, and cherish them!
	12:35pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:34 I'm reluctant to shell out for a new LP right out of the gate unless it's like YLT.
	12:35pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @12:34 But boy when you see someone selling a new LP for $15, it sure is a thrill!
	12:36pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:35 well put.
	12:36pm McGroovey: ↳ gf2002 @12:29 I'm guessing that this is partly because a cassette can be made quicker and cheaper than a vinyl LP, and CDs (even quicker and cheaper to make) are un-cool. And in real life, face it, you probably play the mp3 download, not the LP or cassette anyway. They could sell you a Taylor Swift chunk of wood, and it would sound exactly the same as a cassette.
	12:36pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:35 or find a "curator", like me - it is working well!
	12:36pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:29 Three classics! The Narrow Margin is one of my favorites, people talk about the fight scene aboard a train in From Russia With Love as one of the best, but Narrow Margin had it down years prior. Love The Clay Pigeon too, I have to rewatch Trapped very soon! I'm overdue for a Noir marathon. Great recommendations!
	12:36pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:36 Good to hear!
	12:36pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:35 Or $18! theexbats.bandcamp.com...
	12:37pm luka: pretty sure it was “mr. stretch guy”
	12:37pm Webhamster Henry: I just got a Blu-ray/DVD reader for my computer, and there are lots of discounted media out there! and : doesn't fill up my disk drives. I usually get some kind of physical media when ordering from Bandcamp, both to give them a little more money ad to help them clear out that big box of physical media in the closet.
	12:37pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:36 Trapped is the weakest of them - but still dece.
	12:38pm dano59: Michael The Ronettes!
	12:38pm Bob: I've harped on this enough but I don't get paying thirty bucks for a reissue on labels like Yep-Roc and they sound like second generation cassettes...not cool. I also picked up that beautiful looking Velvet Crush vinyl edition of Teenage Symphonies and it just sounds like crap.
	12:39pm Hughie Considine: I was just in Brooklyn and the most I paid for a record was 25 for a used copy of Emit Rhodes's The American Dream and 30-something for Transit Byzantium by Bill Fox. At least they were both Shelley classics.
	12:39pm McGroovey: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:34 Yeah, I still buy CDs, because they're cheaper. When CDs started replacing LPs, I kept buying LPs, because they were cheaper, unless I could find a used CD, because a lot of LP pressings sounded horrible in the 1990s anyway. And I only bought a CD player when the Joy Division Substance comp came out, and the CD had twice as many songs...
	12:39pm clarke: ↳ Bob @12:38 i love that album, that's sad to hear about the pressing. i know pressing plants are, uhh, hard-pressed atm, but, still...
	12:39pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:39 Where did you shop? You were probably in the neighborhood! We're approaching record-store saturation here.
	12:40pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Bob @12:38 Gotta agree. I have the Nick Lowe Brentford Trilogy records on CD, and those are enough for me right now. If it was a different label reissuing those titles, I might've considered picking them up.
	12:40pm Bob: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:39 Big letdown. I love it too.
	12:40pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:39 i bet the issue is mastering more than pressing.
	12:40pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:39 Academy, Captured Tracks, and the Record Grouch. Greenpoint, baby! I love it.
	12:40pm John L: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:34 I don't upgrade all of my dvds to Bluray unless there are great extras or if the original dvd didn't look that great, but I've updated a few. I get films from overseas companies and many of them only make blu-rays. I do stream, but sometimes they picture is unwatchable. I just bought a blu-ray for Born To Win (1971) because the streaming version and old dvd version both looked like mud.
	12:40pm gf2002: In the late 90's there was a scene especially among underground punk and hardcore bands where they were still releasing on cassettes, total DIY. Then cassette players stopped being manufactured widely, CD's became cheaper to make, etc. But about ten years ago there was a buzz that cassettes were coming back in underground circles, and now it's mainstream and teenagers I know are fascinated by them. It's crazy, but for people releasing music still very cost effective. I still like CD's too.
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:40 We are a block from Record Grouch. Next time around, send up a flare!
	12:41pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:40 i understand yep roc uses an inferior pressing plant.
	12:41pm drr: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:40 Record Grouch financed my move to New Orleans.
	12:41pm dano59: I’m on the road to the Adirondacks but I had to weigh in on the original band for I could hear music
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:40 no - been hearing bad pressing stories galore.
	12:42pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Laura Lee" by "Racket Squad" Mama Tried is an excellent venue. Highly recommended. But IFF anyone is looking more north Brooklyn, we'll be seeing Discreet Charms (heavy FMU connection) and Famous Logs in History at 18th Ward this afternoon.
	12:42pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ gf2002 @12:40 I just got the cassette for Wobbly's new Additional Kids release!
	12:42pm Michael Shelley: The real loss is that singles are no longer an affordable way to get one song/one b side to the public.
	12:43pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:42 Oh. the only thing I have on YR is the Pure Pop For Now People reissue. I think it sounds OK; it's on, like, 360 gram vinyl.
	12:43pm Hughie Considine: ↳ drr @12:41 Wow! He (the grouch?) was great. We talked about the LPs I purchased just like it should be. Great place.
	12:43pm clarke: ↳ dano59 @12:41 good place to be!!
	12:43pm McGroovey: ↳ gf2002 @12:40 My teenage daughter buys used cassettes and CDs in thrift stores, because they're cheap. She buys things she's never heard of if she likes the cover. Yes, she's a future music hoarder. I point to my wall of records and say "someday this will all me yours!", and she smiles.
	12:44pm Bob: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:42 Totally. Seven bucks for a single that also won't sound very good. Third Man stuff is good.
	12:44pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:43 *be
	12:44pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:43 Rarely is mine the only WFMU shirt in that place.
	12:44pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:41 I will do that!
	12:44pm egould: ↳ Song: "Laura Lee" by "Racket Squad" Damn that was good!
	12:44pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:41 I don't know the details, but based on the YR vinyl I do own, this seems to check out. They're not the only ones though. Plenty of labels are getting their stuff pressed at crappy plants. It's really just the lack of quality control that's the issue. I know the demand is high and that the plants are slammed and probably working around the clock, but jeez, even the slightest effort to improve the pressing quality would go a long way in 2023. In my experience, off-center pressings are the biggest blight on vinyl today.
	12:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I hadda play some Gittar & I miss everything...
	12:46pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:44 I had a few happy fellow-FMU sightings while in town -- a nice gal on Rockaway Beach with an FMU trucker hat being the most memorable.
	12:46pm clarke: MS - while i TOTALLY agree with what you are saying about singles -- at the same time, anyone can hear ANYthing immediately, these days - which is unreal!!
	12:46pm gf2002: I've heard a lot of complaints especially regarding deluxe box sets about the quality of the pressings on new vinyl. And the pressing plants are backed up like mad with demand, I forget what the turnaround time is for short runs but it's very long. I think the demand overshot the actual capability of people who can run and maintain the equipment. I have to think a lot of the craftsmen who ran the equipment and knew how to do it are gone by now and it's hard to run the presses to meet demand today
	12:47pm Nutley Sam: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:42 Famous Logs and Racket Squad are related by marriage. You can do both!
	12:47pm Frank In Queens: Buyers would also rather buy LPs over singles.
	12:47pm Barefoot Jimmy G: So glad you are a part of my Saturday afternoon, Michael. Thanks!
	12:48pm clarke: understood, but frank makes the point of QC issues. they are just okaying shitty product.
	12:48pm Don Gorden: I gotta tell you Mike , I've been listing to you and Rex for the last ten years now, relatively a new comer to WFMU, I just love you guys, never a dull show , as far as I'm concerned even the guest hosts are great.
	12:49pm PatrickMC: The real tragedy is the loss of the cereal box cutout 45. And its cool cat successor, the flexidisc.
	12:49pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:46 Well, I'm holding you to it -- next time, I'll buy you a drink or a coffee. We can point admiringly at each other's FMU gear.
	12:49pm Kent: Hey Michael, the Ronettes originally sang I Can Hear Music. Reached #100 on Billboard in October 1966! For such a well-known group, such a short-lived hit career.
	12:49pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Nutley Sam @12:47 The world is rich!
	12:49pm clarke: i don't if it is a question of not being able to get a test-pressing?? i'm afraid to try, atm.
	12:49pm Akiva: I know the hat it’s like 15 minutes walk from my house. Never been there myself but mt parents have. Everything they’ve said seems to echo your sentiment
	12:50pm Handy Haversack: OK, going to take a quick shower and then get some groceries. Many thanks, Michael! Great show. Later on, Number One pals!
	12:50pm Don Gorden: Thank Mike
	12:50pm drr: ↳ PatrickMC @12:49 I've hung on to the EvaTone Soundsheet demo package I got from their Southeast rep in 1985.
	12:50pm gf2002: I miss the cereal box records! I still have one from The Monkees and some old Mad magazine flexi-discs. And Guitar Player magazine used to do the flexis too
	12:51pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:49 You're on -- looking at late September. as a possibility Will surely have the requisite duds on hand.
	12:51pm clarke: ↳ PatrickMC @12:49 you have hit upon It!!
	12:51pm McGroovey: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:46 Are you the Hugh I checked in at the door at Monty Hall last night? (My daughter and I were the ticket-takers)
	12:51pm drr: ↳ gf2002 @12:50 "It's A Super-Spectacular Day"? "Makin' Out"?
	12:52pm drr: ↳ gf2002 @12:50 Are there cereal-box CDs? If not, why not?
	12:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:44 ...well that's appropriate... : nationaldaycalendar.com...
	12:53pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:50 lest we not forget the flexi's that came with Bucketfull Of Brains fanzine!!
	12:53pm PatrickMC: ↳ drr @12:50 I still have a J5 cereal box 45 and a New Order flexidisc. All bases covered.
	12:53pm Hughie Considine: ↳ McGroovey @12:51 I am not -- and perhaps this moniker thing is a little silly at this point. My name is David. Hughie Considine was a character in one episode of "Room 222."
	12:53pm listener phat in Lincoln: www.solid-merch.com...
	12:53pm jmd: ↳ Song: "Me Neither" by "Tripwires, The" heck yes!
	12:53pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 BUSTED!!!
	12:54pm egould: Michael, you assembled today’s show with the skill and artistry of a master sushi chef. Arigato gozaimasu!
	12:54pm Hughie Considine: I feel somehow cleansed.
	12:54pm McGroovey: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 Well, the Hugh from last night seemed like a fine fellow. And our next door neighbor when I was a kid was named Hugh, and he was a fine fellow. So, Hugh=good fellow, in my experience.
	12:54pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 i thought it was the brother of tim and tom considine!
	12:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 ARMY OF DAVE ...one night about 2 A.M. all we Daves shall Rise ...& Dave will most definitely then Be Home mammajammaz...
	12:54pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Bob Barth @12:33 THANKS TO YOU!
	12:55pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 He wasn't that guy with the big red afro was he ?
	12:55pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:49 As far as I know, test pressings are readily available should you choose to want them pressed. But I don't know if they measure anything more than the sound quality of the pressing. I think a lot of the other issues occur during the pressing run of the album. For instance, I've had off-center pressings that I've exchanged for another copy that was pressed well. Same with non-fill.
	12:55pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:54 now that you have outed yourself, let me praise your podcast I Am The Fly - which every good boy deserves to listen to!!
	12:55pm gf2002: ↳ drr @12:51 I don't have that but somewhere in a box of junk I know I have the Graduation Day record, which is cardboard and it's Alfred's face. I remember having to put coins on it on the record player because it never played right!
	12:56pm Hughie Considine: ↳ McGroovey @12:54 It's a good-time name! David's kinda boring.
	12:56pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:55 yeah, but can you "stop the presses" if u don't like the test, anymore??
	12:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: HYOO - From the Germanic name Hugo, derived from the Old Frankish element hugi, Old High German hugu meaning "mind, thought, spirit" (Proto-Germanic * hugiz ).
	12:56pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:56 I believe so, otherwise what's the point of them?
	12:56pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:55 Thanks, Clarke. I'll drop in my podcast here. Please give a whirl! www.iamthefly.org
	12:57pm McGroovey: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:56 Yeah, there are lots of Davids, for sure, but most Davids I've known have also been fine fellows. I just googled your podcast. Cool.
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:56 that's what i was wondering.
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:56 like Barq's Root Beer (it's not root beer!): IT'S GOOD!!
	12:58pm DJ Johnny Cool: These are the Daves I know I know, these are the Daves I know.
	12:58pm Hughie Considine: ↳ McGroovey @12:57 Good to hear - hope you dig.
	12:58pm clarke: The Daves - love em!
	12:58pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:57 It's better than bad/ it's good
	12:59pm luka: thank u 4 the no. 1s
	12:59pm Greg from ZONE 5: Great stuff today, MS!
	12:59pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:57 I believe they do the test pressings after the plates are created. If you don't like the sound of the test pressings, they gotta re-plate and try again.
	12:59pm ScottinDenver: I believe this is the definition of power cord.
	12:59pm Peter Horvath: Have a great Saturday, #1’ers
	12:59pm clarke: thnx monsieur shelley!!
	12:59pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:59 but then you get further back in the line, nowdays.
	1:00pm DG: That's troubling about the Nick Lowe reissues. Wanted to get the full/official version of "Jesus of Cool" just to get all the extra stuff, now I'm re-thinking it. Is the sound OK?
	1:00pm Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @12:59 Well, yeah.
	1:00pm clarke: my eyes - not so good. good nite. plonk!
	1:00pm Hughie Considine: That was swell - thanks, Michael!
	1:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ MS ~
	1:03pm Bob Barth: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:54 I don't know if you heard that interview but he was great. So much fun.
