Duane Eddy And His 'Twangy' Guitar	Rebel Rouser	Rebel Rouser	Jamie Records / London Records	1958	Duane Eddy, R.I.P. as of April 30, 2024. The first album I (Derek) ever had was gifted to me by my parents at Christmas. It was a Duane Eddy compilation, and I loved that compilation dearly. This song is his first single, and perhaps his signature song. This one (as many others he would release) was produced & co-written with Lee Hazelwood. "Duane Eddy (April 26, 1938 – April 30, 2024) was an American rock and roll guitarist. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, he had a string of hit records produced by Lee Hazlewood which were noted for their characteristically "twangy" guitar sound, including "Rebel-'Rouser", "Peter Gunn", and "Because They're Young". He had sold 12 million records by 1963. His guitar style influenced the Shadows, the Beatles and Bruce Springsteen. //// Eddy was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994 and the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2008."		0:00:00 (Pop-up)

Hawaii Calls	Hale Ani Ani "Hale Ani Ani" by "Hawaii Calls"	Memories Of Hawaii Calls Vol 1.	Hawaii Calls	1993	Hawaii Calls was originally a radio program which took place under the Banyan tree at the Moana Hotel on Wakiki Beach. It was hosted by one Webley Edwards. Al Kealoha Perry was musical director for thirty years, 1937–1967. The show selected the best musicians and singers, with the purpose of showcasing what authentic Hawaiian music is like when played by native performers, but with one major difference—the lyrics were sung in English. Hawaiians called this hybrid with English hapa haole (half-white) When the show came on the air, listeners were convinced that they could hear sound of waves pounding on the surf. According to historian Lorene Ruymar, they were likely hearing the alternating sound waves on their radio sets; but host Webley Edwards picked up on it, and he began opening every performance by holding the microphone out toward the ocean proclaiming, "The sound of the waves on the beach at Waikiki" over an alluring steel guitar background. The show ended in 1975.		0:05:23 (Pop-up)
Surrealist Temple Band & Insecure Men	13 Rules for Tiki Bars	Music For The Poorly Educated	Trashmouth Records	2023	Surrealist Temple Band were formed when Insecure Men’s stage announcer ran away with two members of the band to make a spoken-word pop album, soundtracking the surreal poems, speeches and life advice by Lev Parker—poet, publisher and leader of the cult literary organization and its press, Morbid Books boasting members and contributors such as Ian Svenonius, Stewart Home, Jeremy Reed, Nina Power & Boyd Rice.		0:06:08 (Pop-up)
The Cramps	Aloha From Hell "Aloha From Hell" by "The Cramps"	A Date With Elvis	Vengeance Records	1986	When Kirsty Wallace and Erick Purkhiser met and fell in love at college in Sacramento in 1972 they changed their names to Poison Ivy Rorschach and Lux Interior and moved to New York in 1975 to catch the start of the CBGB punk scene and welcomed into the dirty, steam-filled, night time streets, the screaming monster that was The Cramps. You either get the 50s kitschy, B-movie, fetish-inspired aesthetic they created or you don’t, it’s that simple. Primitive rock'n'roll stripped back to its bare sexy voodoo bones with the addition of some X-rated sci-fi and horror imagery, and of course, a good risqué double-entendre lyric...A Date with Elvis is the third full-length studio album by the American rock band the Cramps, released in the UK on Big Beat Records in 1986.		0:10:12 (Pop-up)
Doctor Explosion	Dracula Ye-Ye "Dracula Ye-Ye" by "Doctor Explosion"	Aquellos Maravillosos Tributo a Doctor Explosion 90	Subterfuge Records	1996	Spanish garage rock band from Gijón formed in summer 1989 by Jorge Muñoz-Cobo, Félix Domínguez and Álvaro Coalla The album looks like a tribute to Doctor Explosion by fictitious bands in 2050...bands with names like "Green Gay" and "Smelie Vanilli" but then also include "New Model Army" ??? Thee Headcoattes are also credited for backups on this track. I'm so fucking confused. What we DO know is that Dracula Ye Ye was written by one Andrés Pajares and it was originally released in 1968. Copies of this 7"are highly desirable...though why I am not entirely sure....		0:12:45 (Pop-up)
The Bees	Voices Green and Purple "Voices Green and Purple" by "The Bees"	Voices Green & Purple 7"	Liverpool	1966	No survey of 60s garage and psychedelic music would be complete without ‘Voices Green and Purple’. It is a punkadelic monster of the highest calibre. The verse is driven along by a nagging, insistent guitar riff courtesy of Gary Briggs but it is on the chorus (if we can call it that) that all hell breaks loose with wild drumming, ferocious ascending and descending guitar chords, and wild shrieks and half garbled lyrics about the voices “coming through windows” and “crawling on the walls”. This is another example of a garage band imagining what a bad trip might be like rather than having experimented with hallucinogens themselves. In fact, the title of the song and the general idea of a drug experience gone really, really bad had been suggested by record producer Tom Willsie, who had been looking for a group to record original material when he ran into the fledgling Bees. Bassist and singer Robbie Wood then wrote the lyrics and devised the basic structure of the song, which was recorded along with the flip in around three hours at United Western Recorders in Hollywood.		0:15:02 (Pop-up)
Ursula 1000 & Fred Schneider	Hey You!	Mondo Beyondo	Ursula 1000	2011	URSULA 1000 is the alter ego of Brooklyn, New York based producer/DJ/multi-instrumentalist Alex Gimeno....and WFMU and Sheena's Jungle Room legend. We love Alex for his genre-hopping ride of retro tinged exotic grooves and futuristic electronic disco funk fusions. This collab with Fred Schneider serves up all the good feeling tiki parti vibes we could ever need or want.		0:16:41 (Pop-up)
Wet Man	Discontent Creator "Discontent Creator" by "Wet Man"	Discontent Creator Single	Wet Man Musci	2024	Wet Man is Jack (Jacques Clayton). Jack comes from a lineage of Sheffield outsider weird pop royalty, His dad John Clayton was the bass player in Peel favourites (and a teenage Jarvis Cocker’s favourite group) Artery, and also played live bass occasionally for the legendary Cabaret Voltaire. But no Nepo Baby he, oh no. He is his own Premier Club Singer, Dadaist and Electronic Music maker. He is currently playing shows in the UK, so search out the thin, lost, hopeless shadow of a pop singer with nothing left to lose, losing his shit. For your entertainment.	*	0:20:36 (Pop-up)
Meatraffle	Posh People In Pop "Posh People In Pop" by "Meatraffle"	Base and Superstructure	Blang Limited	2023	South London miscreants Meatraffle come shuffling back around the corner with a blue carrier bag and a welcome surprise. Not only are they still a thing, but this new (third!) album Base and Superstructure is a bright ‘n’ shiny pop-tastic delight. Very possibly their best yet it’s full of irresistibly toe twitching beats and old school synth sounds, seasoned liberally with Zsa Zsa Sapien’s sweet trumpet lines and world weary musings. There’s the strident Marxism, the funny names, and the dubious company they keep. Never mind their louche and off kilter music. Worst of all they have a sense of humour, an attribute some people find weirdly hard to forgive. A handy litmus test for the undecided arrives early doors, if “My mum loves Bryan Ferry. How much? Very very.” provokes a wry smile then you’re in the right place. If not you should maybe consider lightening up a bit. ‘Posh People in Pop’ also brings us “Why do I always bring class into it?/ It’s coz the people in the lower classes suffer most, innit.” Meatraffle have never been shy about their Marxism. Their politics manifests in their music neither as righteous fury or an attempt to convert but more as a clear eyed shrug about the way of the world.		0:24:18 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: The Exotic Lounge	Tiki Fun House Ska	Tiki Fun House Ska Single	Santi Lluch-Ximinez	2019	This is a ska take on Hawaiian Tiki. I am not entirely sure it is successful, but here we are.		0:27:12 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: The Tikiyaki Orchestra	Shaka Huka Bossa Nova	Stereoxotique	Future Primitive Records	2007	The Tikiyaki Orchestra is a seven piece modern exotica band that combines the sounds of traditional exotica with the Music Of Hawaii, surf music, crime jazz, lounge music and space age pop to create a soundtrack for the Tiki sub-culture.		0:31:08 (Pop-up)
The Wedding Present	Teper My Hovorymo	24 Songs	Scopitones	2023	"Throughout 2022, The Wedding Present’s ‘24 Songs’ series saw the legendary indie band release two new tracks a month as double A sided 7”s, ultimately creating a much-sought-after box set. David Gedge re-curated full-length versions of all twenty-four tracks for a new compilation album that will also comprise five bonus recordings including one featuring The Wedding Present’s first guitarist, Peter Solowka." -- [Reuniting with the band for a song also on the "Together For Ukraine" compilation album, in support of Ukraine's current war refugees.] -- "‘24 Songs’ was a doff of the cap to The Wedding Present’s ‘Hit Parade’ project of 30 years previous. That series proved to be a real milestone for the band with them becoming only the second-ever artist to achieve twelve Official UK Top 40 hits in a calendar year – at the time something that only Elvis had achieved! //// David Gedge says: “When it came to compiling the ‘24 Songs’ album, I decided not to sequence the tracks in chronological order. With six sides of vinyl, you have six ‘beginnings’ and six ‘ends’ to play with, and I felt that the opportunity to build some kind of a musical journey was too good to miss! Listening back to this collection, I have to say that I genuinely believe that, for this project, The Wedding Present have recorded some of the best tracks in our history. I loved releasing the singles, but it’s satisfying to have them all rounded up together.”"		0:38:51 (Pop-up)
The Ex & Fendika	Addis Hum "Addis Hum" by "The Ex & Fendika"	Lale Guma / Addis Hum 7"	Ex Records / RecRec Music	2015	"This 7” single release is a musical cooperation between The Ex and the Ethiopian acoustic band Fendika. The Ex has a long history with Ethiopian music and has worked together with Fendika for 6 years on many European and American festivals and also in Ethiopia. Slowly they've grown closer and the result is stunnning: the typical Ex rhythms and riffs, combined with traditional instruments (one string masinko, kobero drums) and the great voice of singer Nardos. “Addis Hum” is based on “Gue”, a traditional Ethiopian Gurage song. “Lale Guma” is a song by Ayalew Mesfin and the Fetan Band. “Shellelle” is a traditional war cry. Both are chants which narrate the battles and account for the heroes, sung to boost confidence and inspiration." https://theex.bandcamp.com/album/lale-guma-addis-hum		0:42:28 (Pop-up)
Mdou Moctar	Tchinta "Tchinta" by "Mdou Moctar"	Funeral For Justice	Matador	2024	Released May 3. From the Guardian: "At a time when so many UK and US artists are shruggingly apolitical, the palpable anger blazing throughout Nigerien psych-rock guitarist Mdou Moctar’s second album on Matador, and seventh overall, feels like a powerful corrective. Following up on some of the issues raised on 2021’s hugely impressive Afrique Victime, Funeral for Justice doesn’t pull any punches, whether tackling the disastrous legacy of French colonialism (Oh France) and the failures of African leaders to build up their countries (the title track), or the way that Moctar’s native Tamasheq language is at risk of dying out as it loses out to French among younger people (the impassioned Imouhar). //// As ever, Moctar’s instrumentation is as incendiary as his words. His virtuoso guitar work – all fast-evolving riffs and thrillingly fluid soloing – is the focal point throughout, lifting the likes of Tchinta and Sousoume Tamacheq to a higher plane. His US-Nigerien band are just as important, however, building on the propulsive Tuareg desert blues, or assouf, popularised internationally by Tinariwen two decades ago, and creating an unstoppable momentum behind him. Dazzling."	*	0:47:51 (Pop-up)
Christian Olivier	Non "Non" by "Christian Olivier"	After Avant	BMG	2018	Christian Olivier is a French singer-songwriter, guitarist and designer, born 1964 in the Republic of Mali. / According to credits on streaming services, The Ex collaborated on certain tracks from this album (Original vocalist for The Ex G.W. Sok certainly did.) This is one of those songs. Finding info about this release in general seems tricky, even though it's a major label release.		0:53:08 (Pop-up)
Altin Gün	Kırık Cam	Vallahi Yok - Kırık Cam (Single)	ATO Records	2024	Released April 9, 2024. Altın Gün, Turkish psych-folk innovators, return with a glimmering new single consisting of two original songs composed by Merve and Jasper. The release is a farewell to Merve and coincided with the band's sold-out show at the legendary L’Olympia in Paris, which is also the first date of their spring European club tour. Merve leaves Altın Gün in May and the band will proceed as a five-piece. More tour dates and music are rumoured to be ahead in 2024. Altin Gün (Bandcamp)	*	0:56:26 (Pop-up)
Zea	Du Böst Dood Dub (Istari Lasterfahrer Remix)	Wat Ik Dacht Toen Ik Lag: The Dub Remix Album	Krachladen Dub	2024	This is a fairly radical reworking of "You're Dead" by Norma Cecilia. Either that, or it is those words used to augment this strange & wonderful new Dub Remix by Zea. //// "Norma Cecilia Tanega (January 30, 1939 – December 29, 2019) was an American folk and pop singer-songwriter, painter, and experimental musician. In the 1960s, she had a hit with the single "Walkin' My Cat Named Dog" and wrote songs for Dusty Springfield and other prominent musicians. In later decades, Tanega worked mostly as a percussionist, playing various styles of music in the bands Baboonz, hybridVigor, and Ceramic Ensemble. She also wrote "You're Dead", which was used as the theme song of the film What We Do in the Shadows and the TV series of the same name." /////// Zea is the project of Arnold DeBoer, which preceded & now runs concurrently with his time as the most recent singer (+guitarist) for The Ex. "An incredible roster is drafted for this very rare rethink and revisitation of work by the mighty Dutch oddities ZEA, a band most probably won't be too familiar with, and, as a quick Google will tell you, are definitely not ZE:A, a South Korean boy band who make decidedly more chart friendly (in South East Asia at least) forms of music. Instead, these Netherlanders are known for their Kraut, kosmische, post punk, DIY electro stylings, and those building blocks make for some excellent reworking courtesy of a cast from various sites of steeped musical heritage. Andy Moor (The Ex, Amsterdam), Desmond Denker, Phanton, and Begritty (Cologne), Yurke (Dusseldorf), Istari Lasterfahrer (Hamburg), Dubby King Knarf (Knarf Rellom, Hamburg) all offer their own takes on that which was already difficult to describe, making for a strange and beguiling collection which is impossible to say no to." https://zeamusic.bandcamp.com/	*	1:00:50 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Duane Eddy	Peter Gunn "Peter Gunn" by "Duane Eddy"	Peter Gunn (7")	London	1959	According to a Discogs user: "The UK release of Peter Gunn has three main points of note: 1. The track was picked up by Decca ahead of it's native USA Jamie (Pennsylvania) release who relegated the track to a B side. //////// 2. Decca were in the throws of changing their dinking process and dinkers from original Capitol USA optional centre (OC) three sided cutters that left an attractive and UK cherished tri-centre finish to a four sided cutter leaving a round and 4 leg centre. All original first run pressings and the Stereo pressings came with the Tri Centre finish. //////// 3. Peter Gunn had just been released as HL W 8879 in Decca's regular mono 7" and 10" schellac pressings as stereo launch day was mooted. The RCA-Victor "Living Stereo" release of the USA South Pacific soundtrack album in late 1958 had given Decca the push it needed to launch their stereophonic records in the UK (being the UK licence’s for RCA) and to tie in with the release of a selection of albums and EP's featuring the "living stereo" release of The South Pacific soundtrack, Decca also released 4 special stereo 45's with a new catalogue prefix of SL (Stereo London) + their source codes and Peter Gunn was selected as the first SL W 4001. (Jamie had been experimenting with 4 track recordings and Peter Gunn was recorded on multi track and a the mix to stereo was done, Decca UK were offered the tapes and jumped at it). //// (a whole series of side by side stereo 45's was planned but after a meeting with the other UK companies it was agreed as a major hush-hush money spinner NOT to release regular stereo 45's but to keep stereo releases to EP's and Albums and charge the customer £1+ more for the privilege of being ripped off and keeping it all hush-hush no more came out, the truth of the matter that once the cutting lathe had been modified it did not cost any more or extra to cut a stereo lacquer over a mono one, but the buying public were not to know that and Decca, Pye and EMI shafted the public for a good decade). //// Peter Gunn did not get the same stereo treatment or reverence in it's homeland and only came out as a mono release making this UK Decca release a world wide exclusive in August 1959. naturally SL W 4001 was exported by Decca far and wide to promote stereophonic records. It was a bulk standard UK release on Stereo launch day but few were sold, the stereo mix naturally leaves the mono one standing and rather pointless) //// (The UK "Living Stereo" release of The South Pacific soundtrack put the album back on the #1 spot and kept it there for over another year! It was a licence to print money and made Decca and RCA a fortune)"		1:05:16 (Pop-up)
Chris Knox	Rapist "Rapist" by "Chris Knox"	Seizure	Flying Nun Records	1990	For every introverted soul who feared the sunlight, people and being seen or addressed in public, Chris Knox wrote songs for them. The famous godfather of New Zealand punk and lo-fi influenced all things that ultimately became the lame, overgeneralized indie label. No Chris Knox, no Pavement. No Chris Knox, no Yo La Tengo. No Chris Knox, no Neutral Milk Hotel. The music world became a better place when Knox sat down alone in his bedroom, inserted a high-bias cassette into his 4-track recorder, used his casiotone preset beats as his backing band and recorded his punk rock screeds.Ultimately, songwriting set Knox apart from countless other New Zealand punks who called the Flying Nun label home. Seizure’s 4-track recordings play like a musical diary, something remarkably unique in any punk scene across the globe. Chris was also having a big reassessment of his behaviour and the attitudes at work behind it. He had been supporting The Clean at an Orientation gig at Sammy's in Dunedin when his always opinionated intersong prattle got away from him and became rather ugly. Others did notice it, and so did Chris, who saw it as a clear signal to sort himself out and, as a consequence, the way he dealt with others. It was a karmic moment without the unnecessary karma. This was the crisis that created the start of the journey towards a more mellow Chris. The Seizure album was the first bit of output to come from this period of transformation, and you can plainly hear that he is keen to get on with it. There is to be some angst before the calm.		1:16:31 (Pop-up)
Mhaol	Asking For It "Asking For It" by "Mhaol"	Attachment Styles	Merge Records	2023	M(h)aol (pronounced male) are formed of Róisín Nic Ghearailt, Constance Keane, Jamie Hyland, Zoë Greenway, and Sean Nolan. Asking For It is an incredibly intimate and rough song that has evolved over time. It was the first song Róisn ever wrote to try to process some of her feelings and experiences with r*pe culture. On the track she comments: "I wrote it initially in 2016 then revisited it in 2020. I was shocked by how much internalised victim blaming there was in the lyrics. I rewrote it, then we recorded it and it was released to raise money for Women's Aid in 2021. The album version is a lot angrier than the 2021 one and almost satirical insofar as it's highlighting how ludicrous the notion of anyone 'asking for it' is."		1:18:24 (Pop-up)
Descendants	I Wanna Be a Bear "I Wanna Be a Bear" by "Descendants"	Milo Goes To College	SST Records	1982	Milo Goes to College is the debut studio album by the American punk rock band Descendents. The album's mix of fast and aggressive hardcore punk with melody and semi-ironic love songs led to it being considered one of the most significant albums of the early 1980s southern California hardcore movement. In the decades since its release, it has received highly positive reviews and is now considered among the most noteworthy and important punk albums by several publications. Milo Goes to College has been cited as influential and a favorite by several notable artists and musicians. It is considered by many to be a foundational record for the pop-punk genre.		1:20:38 (Pop-up)
Superdrag	Destination Ursa Minor "Destination Ursa Minor" by "Superdrag"	Regretfully Yours	Elektra	1996	Superdrag is an American alternative rock band from Knoxville, Tennessee, United States. They had a hit single in 1996, "Sucked Out", from their album Regretfully Yours. The original lineup reunited in 2007, releasing a full-length album in 2009: Industry Giants. The same lineup reunited again in 2021. Sucked Out of course was the big hit from this record...but I feel that they have much better songs....case in point the one we played. This takes me back to a time when Weezer and Sloan ruled the indie waves...maybe not a better time...but a different one.		1:21:21 (Pop-up)
The Frogs	Bear "Bear" by "The Frogs"	Hopscotch Lollipop Sunday Surprise	The Frogs	2001	Hopscotch Lollipop Sunday Surprise is a studio album by The Frogs, released in 2001. Although brushing on satirical homoerotic and religious themes, the album chiefly consists of serious love songs. This is....quite unlike most Frogs recordings, as well as attention to a higher level of overall production. Are they social commentators, novelty songwriters with a perverse need to stick it to you, or genuine idiot savants with highly disturbed, eight-year-old psyches? Only the brothers know for sure. In any event, the world is a more interesting place with them in it. You’ll laugh, you’ll fume, you’ll love or hate them: the Frogs engender everything but indifference. So why aren’t they superstars? Perhaps in a parallel and preferable universe, they are.		1:25:07 (Pop-up)
The Stranglers	Bear Cage "Bear Cage" by "The Stranglers"	Bear Cage / Shah Shah A Go Go	United Artists	1980	Originally a non album track, this tune would find its way on later reissues of The Raven. This song did reach #36 on the charts despite many saying the B Side was superior...and while the meanings of this song could be applied to the difficulties of modern life, JJ Burnel was quoted on this saying "It’s about GMBH, the German equivalent of Limited Company. It’s another sort of travelogue written about Berlin. We spent a lot of money on a video for that which was crap! It did fuck all as a single…"		1:28:28 (Pop-up)
Dub Spencer & Trance Hill	Eisbaer	Riding Strange Horses	Echo Beach	2010	"Eisbär" is a 1980 song by the Swiss Neue Deutsche Welle band Grauzone. The song features a man singing he wants to be "a polar bear in the cold polar", because by being one he "wouldn't have to cry any longer and everything would be fine." The instrumental arrangement also evokes an Arctic atmosphere. It is shocking, how many times this song has been covered. I had no idea. It makes sense that Grauzone would choose Eisbar...seeing as they are also Swiss. Riding Strange Horses sees them making other very interesting choices for covers, like Genesis' Mama, and Metallica's Enter Sandman. I am Swiss...and I'll never truly understand the Swiss....really.		1:31:18 (Pop-up)

Big Black	I Can Be Killed "I Can Be Killed" by "Big Black"	Lungs	Ruthless Records / Touch & Go	1982	"Steve Albini, a legend of rock n’ roll who produced albums for Nirvana, P.J. Harvey, and The Pixies, as well as his own music, has died at 61. He suffered a heart attack Tuesday night, a staffer at Electrical Audio, the recording studio he founded in the late ’90s, confirmed. //// Alongside his storied producing career, Albini also performed with his band Shellac. Shellac was preparing to release its first album since 2014 just next week and had scheduled tour dates for later this year. //// Albini’s influence on alternative rock—particularly grunge, post-punk, and its ilk—in the mid- to late ’90s can’t be overstated. While his own bands, including Shellac and Big Black, which he fronted in the 1980s, gained esteem, it’s his work as a record producer—or rather as an engineer, his preferred title—that cemented his legacy. His credits are lengthy and arguably unparalleled: In 1993 alone, Albini worked on Nirvana’s In Utero, P.J. Harvey’s Rid of Me, and Jawbreaker’s 24 Hour Revenge Therapy—each one ranking among the greatest albums ever made." //// This is from Big Black's first EP. "The first hundred or so copies were cut and glued by Steve and Jon Babbin (the Effigies' manager). Some copies had cool inserts (razor blades, hair, blood, bazooka Joe comics, pictures of dead people, bumper stickers, PIL tickets and other miscellaneous crap), some didn't. Included an insert with production notes and lyrics. //// Re-released on Touch And Go in 1992."		1:41:14 (Pop-up)
Pixies	Bone Machine "Bone Machine" by "Pixies"	Surfer Rosa (Remastered)	4AD	1988 / 2007	"Both Surfer Rosa and Steve Albini's production of the album have been influential on alternative rock, and on grunge in particular. Nirvana's Kurt Cobain cited Surfer Rosa as the basis for Nevermind's songwriting. When he first heard the album, Cobain discovered a template for the mix of heavy noise and pop he was aiming to achieve. He remarked in 1992 that he "heard songs off of Surfer Rosa that I'd written but threw out because I was too afraid to play them for anybody." Cobain hired Albini to produce Nirvana's 1993 album In Utero, primarily due to his contribution to Surfer Rosa. The Smashing Pumpkins' Billy Corgan described Surfer Rosa as "the one that made me go, 'holy shit'. It was so fresh. It rocked without being lame." Corgan was impressed by the album's drum sound, and acknowledged that The Smashing Pumpkins used to study the record for its technical elements. Musician PJ Harvey said that Surfer Rosa "blew my mind," and that she "immediately went to track down Steve Albini." Cobain listed Surfer Rosa as one of the top 50 albums he thought were most influential to Nirvana's sound in his journal in 1993. //// People connected with the band were impressed by the record. Ivo Watts-Russell recalled: "I remember when I first heard Surfer Rosa thinking, 'I didn't know the Pixies could sound like The Fall.' That was my immediate reaction, in other words, incredibly raw." Gary Smith, who at the time was in a disagreement with the band, admitted he "was really happy that they had made such a forceful, aggressive, record." Dinosaur Jr.'s J Mascis, comparing the record to the later Pixies albums Bossanova and Trompe le Monde, said he thought that Steve Albini's production "sounded way better than the other ones." //// In 1991, as Pixies were recording Trompe le Monde, Albini told the fan magazine Forced Exposure that Surfer Rosa was "a patchwork pinch loaf from a band who at their top dollar best are blandly entertaining college rock", and said of the band: "Their willingness to be 'guided' by their manager, their record company and their producers is unparalleled. Never have I seen four cows more anxious to be led around by their nose rings." In 2005, Albini apologized for the remarks, saying: "To this day I regret having done it. I don't think that I regarded the band as significantly as I should have."		1:45:43 (Pop-up)
Shellac	Ghosts "Ghosts" by "Shellac"	1000 Hurts	Touch & Go Records	2000	Shellac's 4th album is due out May 19, just a couple of weeks after Steve Albini's death. A tour was planned to accompany the album. Here is a track from an earlier Shellac album, since no tracks are yet releaed from the forthcoming one. //// "In the studio, Albini “embraced the sickly causes of analog tape and nonautomated mixing back in the 1980s and never let go,” Fulks added. “His advocacy was both principled and extreme, and it took a lot of grit, as well as some money, which he earned from his Nirvana record and many poker competitions, to keep the cause afloat.” In his later years, Albini spent time on the professional poker circuit, was an avid Chicago Cubs fan and he was behind many charitable causes. Letters to Santa, an annual Christmas show at Second City he produced over two decades with his wife, Heather Whinna, raised money every year for Chicago’s neediest families through a 24-hour rotation of performances from both music stars and comedy improvisers. He once described the moment he read a letter Whinna brought home from the post office. “These weren’t impish requests for toys or a new bike; mostly, they were desperate pleas from heads of households asking for help. It was staggering,” he wrote. “I couldn’t help but be moved when I read it, and the realization that there were hundreds — no, thousands — of these letters changed something in me.”"		1:48:43 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Duane Eddy	The Ballad Of Paladin "The Ballad Of Paladin" by "Duane Eddy"	The Ballad Of Paladin	RCA	1962	""The Ballad of Paladin" is a song written by Johnny Western, Richard Boone, and Sam Rolfe and performed by Duane Eddy. The song reached No. 10 on the UK Singles Chart and No. 33 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1962. Members of the Western Writers of America chose it as one of the Top 100 Western songs of all time. Eddy's flip side was the theme to The Wild Westerners. //// The song was produced by Lee Hazlewood and arranged by Bob Thompson. Drummer Earl Palmer played on the session. Duane Eddy was good friends with the show's star Richard Boone and appeared with him in a couple of the episodes. He also appeared with him in the 1982 motion picture The Wild Westerners //// The song was also used heavily in the film Stand by Me. //// Johnny Western recorded the original version in 1958 that was the regular theme to the television show Have Gun – Will Travel from the second season on--it was used at least four times in season 1, including episodes 33 & 34. His co-writers were the show's star and creator. Years later, he recorded a parody, "The Ballad of Palindrome", with the western swing and comedy group Riders in the Sky."		1:52:19 (Pop-up)
The Ex	Mother "Mother" by "The Ex"	Starters & Alternators	Touch And Go	1998	One of my all time favourite songs, not just musically, but also about Mothers, the best workers in the world. Happy Mother's Day. //// This is the first album that saw the union of Steve Albini & Dutch Punk (+ so much more) band The Ex. The artwork from this album features pictures of members with his microphones, and also pictures of Steve Albini himself. The next full-length Ex album would also feature Albini as producer & photo-insert honourary band member. "		1:56:24 (Pop-up)

	8:13pm ultradamno: ...and only Bjork gets to be barefoot on stage
	8:15pm DJ Babs: I do not think modern bands should be barefoot on stage tho I get it it's super comfy. Also Cindy Wilson gets a pass.
	8:16pm ultradamno: I give B the pass because I assume she's possibly hobbit with hair on the soles that has to be combed or something.
	8:16pm DJ Babs: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:13 Also I think all Australians get a pass on flip flops.
	8:16pm DJ Babs: They are a beachy people lol.
	8:17pm Mr Fab: Who would want to be barefoot on stage? Stepping on cables n stuff. Ouch.
	8:17pm laurapanic: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:08 I looked at the playlist, but forgot to listen!! will do!! you played my mates so I gotta!

	8:18pm laurapanic: I can't do barefoot onstage. Its comfy but stomp boxes hurt my feet if bare.

	8:31pm laurapanic: I had a few sobs yesterday. Therese did an opulent and wonderful Albini special. He was one of Very Few Men who has had any influence on my art and music and thinking. Big tears when she played a Shellac song. I had avoided hearing any until that point. I feel very sad for his partner and studio colleagues.
	8:32pm ultradamno: Well, now I'm imagining Zsa Zsa tooling around in this www.rushisaband.com...
	8:34pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @8:32 ...it was definitely Gabor I was thinking of in that. Getting allergic smelling hay
	8:34pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @8:32 Not the worst thing to imagine, I suppose
	8:35pm ultradamno: Rush is not the most boring band I've ever seen, that's The Police, but close.

	8:43pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Alli B @8:41 Wedding Present are so good.
	8:44pm DJ Babs: Oooh I fucking love this song by so much!!!!
	8:45pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Mr Fab @8:43 As well as lots of traditional Ukrainian songs & also new songs that Peter Solowka and the band wrote themselves, the covers were more novelties that they ran with now & then, though those are also excellent!
	8:50pm laurapanic: ↳ Bob Barth @8:35 hey Bob, I have fancy corporate thing at 12 midday, which is when you start here. I'm gonna see if I can sit up the back and sneakily listen to one night stand, whilst nodding and smiling knowingly at the meeting presenter.

	9:06pm DJ Babs: Such a great show as well! They are wrapping the filming of the last season here right now. :-(
	9:08pm ultradamno: The problem with doing a vampire series is the characters don't age while the actors do (second season and they're already on a second Claudia on Interview With A Vampire)
	9:11pm DJ Babs: ↳ ultradamno @9:08 I have really been wanting to watch that Interview With A Vampire...is it good?

	9:17pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @8:58 secret lady WFMU business
	9:18pm laurapanic: ↳ ultradamno @9:11 love that show.....this time of year pushes the coolest shows to early morning here, and I'm not by the radio at that time. Its such a great show for movie nerds.
	9:19pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Rapist" by "Chris Knox" oh this album....I saw Chris countless times in the early 90s....too young for Tall Dwarves etc. He was so great live, so good, such a lovely time in my life. I have this LP and its in my Top 20 all time. for sure. He has been very unwell.
	9:19pm DJ Babs: I hear, it's such a very important record for sure.
	9:20pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Asking For It" by "Mhaol" this album is VERY GOOD
	9:20pm DJ Babs: oh hells yes it is. It is a fucking war cry. I love this band.

	9:20pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @9:19 so important, I'm tired, but hearing it makes me happy weepy
	9:22pm Tinley Park Randy: The Boiler. Crazy disgusting.
	9:24pm DJ Babs: Greetings Tinley! Ah yes. The Boiler is...a hard listen.
	9:25pm DJ Babs: Ahhh this is some fresh old shoegaze. I love it and kinda miss it!
	9:25pm Laura Panic: Ha! I wanna be a bear is topical! That discourse has been PERFECT
	9:25pm DJ Babs: Those l'il bits are happygaze LOL.
	9:26pm Derek Westerholm: Hello Tinley Park Randy, hello also WillTheeSG!!
	9:26pm DJ Babs: ↳ Laura Panic @9:25 Oh fuck it's been a rough go in the comment sections LOL. Not here..just everywhere else!
	9:27pm DJ Babs: @Tinley Park Randy is that a Trailer Park Boys reference?!?!
	9:30pm Tinley Park Randy: No. I’ve never watched it. Ken played it on his show a while back. Felt ill afterwards.
	🏝 9:30pm Scott_Oz: STRANGLERS!!!
	9:30pm Mr Fab: ↳ DJ Babs @9:26 Oh yeah? How so?
	9:30pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tinley Park Randy @9:30 hahah!!!
	9:31pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @9:26 men in general got Very Angery. And almost 100% of the time, proving WHY WE CHOOSE THE BEAR
	9:31pm DJ Babs: ↳ Mr Fab @9:30 Apparently a lot of fellows don't like to hear that women are afraid of them. So then their chosen response seems to be...threatening violence against women? It's not great.
	🏝 9:32pm Scott_Oz: Just found out I'm going to see The Clouds tonight. Jodi Phillis (Guitar/Vox) put my name on the door. 🍻😎🤙
	9:33pm DJ Babs: Nice Scott!

	9:34pm laurapanic: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:32 oh that is so great!!!! I had a ticket last year but couldn't escape to go. I saw her sister's band a couple of weeks ago.
	9:34pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @9:31 no it is not.
	9:35pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @9:34 love me a bit of obscure song canon!
	9:35pm ultradamno: ↳ DJ Babs @9:31 They are kind of demonstrating the point, I guess
	9:36pm DJ Babs: precisely.

	9:48pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:47 They could have put 'just over the gay bar' too
	9:49pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Bone Machine" by "Pixies" though he apologised for his brusque message delivery, there must have been grains of truth.....

Duane Eddy And His 'Twangy' Guitar	Rebel Rouser	Rebel Rouser	Jamie Records / London Records	1958	Duane Eddy, R.I.P. as of April 30, 2024. The first album I (Derek) ever had was gifted to me by my parents at Christmas. It was a Duane Eddy compilation, and I loved that compilation dearly. This song is his first single, and perhaps his signature song. This one (as many others he would release) was produced & co-written with Lee Hazelwood. "Duane Eddy (April 26, 1938 – April 30, 2024) was an American rock and roll guitarist. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, he had a string of hit records produced by Lee Hazlewood which were noted for their characteristically "twangy" guitar sound, including "Rebel-'Rouser", "Peter Gunn", and "Because They're Young". He had sold 12 million records by 1963. His guitar style influenced the Shadows, the Beatles and Bruce Springsteen. //// Eddy was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994 and the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2008."		0:00:00 (Pop-up)

Hawaii Calls	Hale Ani Ani "Hale Ani Ani" by "Hawaii Calls"	Memories Of Hawaii Calls Vol 1.	Hawaii Calls	1993	Hawaii Calls was originally a radio program which took place under the Banyan tree at the Moana Hotel on Wakiki Beach. It was hosted by one Webley Edwards. Al Kealoha Perry was musical director for thirty years, 1937–1967. The show selected the best musicians and singers, with the purpose of showcasing what authentic Hawaiian music is like when played by native performers, but with one major difference—the lyrics were sung in English. Hawaiians called this hybrid with English hapa haole (half-white) When the show came on the air, listeners were convinced that they could hear sound of waves pounding on the surf. According to historian Lorene Ruymar, they were likely hearing the alternating sound waves on their radio sets; but host Webley Edwards picked up on it, and he began opening every performance by holding the microphone out toward the ocean proclaiming, "The sound of the waves on the beach at Waikiki" over an alluring steel guitar background. The show ended in 1975.		0:05:23 (Pop-up)
Surrealist Temple Band & Insecure Men	13 Rules for Tiki Bars	Music For The Poorly Educated	Trashmouth Records	2023	Surrealist Temple Band were formed when Insecure Men’s stage announcer ran away with two members of the band to make a spoken-word pop album, soundtracking the surreal poems, speeches and life advice by Lev Parker—poet, publisher and leader of the cult literary organization and its press, Morbid Books boasting members and contributors such as Ian Svenonius, Stewart Home, Jeremy Reed, Nina Power & Boyd Rice.		0:06:08 (Pop-up)
The Cramps	Aloha From Hell "Aloha From Hell" by "The Cramps"	A Date With Elvis	Vengeance Records	1986	When Kirsty Wallace and Erick Purkhiser met and fell in love at college in Sacramento in 1972 they changed their names to Poison Ivy Rorschach and Lux Interior and moved to New York in 1975 to catch the start of the CBGB punk scene and welcomed into the dirty, steam-filled, night time streets, the screaming monster that was The Cramps. You either get the 50s kitschy, B-movie, fetish-inspired aesthetic they created or you don’t, it’s that simple. Primitive rock'n'roll stripped back to its bare sexy voodoo bones with the addition of some X-rated sci-fi and horror imagery, and of course, a good risqué double-entendre lyric...A Date with Elvis is the third full-length studio album by the American rock band the Cramps, released in the UK on Big Beat Records in 1986.		0:10:12 (Pop-up)
Doctor Explosion	Dracula Ye-Ye "Dracula Ye-Ye" by "Doctor Explosion"	Aquellos Maravillosos Tributo a Doctor Explosion 90	Subterfuge Records	1996	Spanish garage rock band from Gijón formed in summer 1989 by Jorge Muñoz-Cobo, Félix Domínguez and Álvaro Coalla The album looks like a tribute to Doctor Explosion by fictitious bands in 2050...bands with names like "Green Gay" and "Smelie Vanilli" but then also include "New Model Army" ??? Thee Headcoattes are also credited for backups on this track. I'm so fucking confused. What we DO know is that Dracula Ye Ye was written by one Andrés Pajares and it was originally released in 1968. Copies of this 7"are highly desirable...though why I am not entirely sure....		0:12:45 (Pop-up)
The Bees	Voices Green and Purple "Voices Green and Purple" by "The Bees"	Voices Green & Purple 7"	Liverpool	1966	No survey of 60s garage and psychedelic music would be complete without ‘Voices Green and Purple’. It is a punkadelic monster of the highest calibre. The verse is driven along by a nagging, insistent guitar riff courtesy of Gary Briggs but it is on the chorus (if we can call it that) that all hell breaks loose with wild drumming, ferocious ascending and descending guitar chords, and wild shrieks and half garbled lyrics about the voices “coming through windows” and “crawling on the walls”. This is another example of a garage band imagining what a bad trip might be like rather than having experimented with hallucinogens themselves. In fact, the title of the song and the general idea of a drug experience gone really, really bad had been suggested by record producer Tom Willsie, who had been looking for a group to record original material when he ran into the fledgling Bees. Bassist and singer Robbie Wood then wrote the lyrics and devised the basic structure of the song, which was recorded along with the flip in around three hours at United Western Recorders in Hollywood.		0:15:02 (Pop-up)
Ursula 1000 & Fred Schneider	Hey You!

Wet Man	Discontent Creator "Discontent Creator" by "Wet Man"	Discontent Creator Single	Wet Man Musci	2024	Wet Man is Jack (Jacques Clayton). Jack comes from a lineage of Sheffield outsider weird pop royalty, His dad John Clayton was the bass player in Peel favourites (and a teenage Jarvis Cocker’s favourite group) Artery, and also played live bass occasionally for the legendary Cabaret Voltaire.

Meatraffle	Posh People In Pop "Posh People In Pop" by "Meatraffle"	Base and Superstructure	Blang Limited	2023	South London miscreants Meatraffle come shuffling back around the corner with a blue carrier bag and a welcome surprise. Not only are they still a thing, but this new (third!) album Base and Superstructure is a bright ‘n’ shiny pop-tastic delight. Very possibly their best yet it’s full of irresistibly toe twitching beats and old school synth sounds, seasoned liberally with Zsa Zsa Sapien’s sweet trumpet lines and world weary musings. There’s the strident Marxism, the funny names, and the dubious company they keep. Never mind their louche and off kilter music. Worst of all they have a sense of humour, an attribute some people find weirdly hard to forgive. A handy litmus test for the undecided arrives early doors, if “My mum loves Bryan Ferry. How much? Very very.” provokes a wry smile then you’re in the right place. If not you should maybe consider lightening up a bit. ‘Posh People in Pop’ also brings us “Why do I always bring class into it?/ It’s coz the people in the lower classes suffer most, innit.” Meatraffle have never been shy about their Marxism. Their politics manifests in their music neither as righteous fury or an attempt to convert but more as a clear eyed shrug about the way of the world.		0:24:18 (Pop-up)

The Wedding Present	Teper My Hovorymo	24 Songs	Scopitones	2023	"Throughout 2022, The Wedding Present’s ‘24 Songs’ series saw the legendary indie band release two new tracks a month as double A sided 7”s, ultimately creating a much-sought-after box set. David Gedge re-curated full-length versions of all twenty-four tracks for a new compilation album that will also comprise five bonus recordings including one featuring The Wedding Present’s first guitarist, Peter Solowka." -- [Reuniting with the band for a song also on the "Together For Ukraine" compilation album, in support of Ukraine's current war refugees.] -- "‘24 Songs’ was a doff of the cap to The Wedding Present’s ‘Hit Parade’ project of 30 years previous. That series proved to be a real milestone for the band with them becoming only the second-ever artist to achieve twelve Official UK Top 40 hits in a calendar year – at the time something that only Elvis had achieved! //// David Gedge says: “When it came to compiling the ‘24 Songs’ album, I decided not to sequence the tracks in chronological order. With six sides of vinyl, you have six ‘beginnings’ and six ‘ends’ to play with, and I felt that the opportunity to build some kind of a musical journey was too good to miss! Listening back to this collection, I have to say that I genuinely believe that, for this project, The Wedding Present have recorded some of the best tracks in our history. I loved releasing the singles, but it’s satisfying to have them all rounded up together.”"		0:38:51 (Pop-up)
The Ex & Fendika	Addis Hum "Addis Hum" by "The Ex & Fendika"	Lale Guma / Addis Hum 7"	Ex Records / RecRec Music	2015	"This 7” single release is a musical cooperation between The Ex and the Ethiopian acoustic band Fendika. The Ex has a long history with Ethiopian music and has worked together with Fendika for 6 years on many European and American festivals and also in Ethiopia. Slowly they've grown closer and the result is stunnning: the typical Ex rhythms and riffs, combined with traditional instruments (one string masinko, kobero drums) and the great voice of singer Nardos. “Addis Hum” is based on “Gue”, a traditional Ethiopian Gurage song. “Lale Guma” is a song by Ayalew Mesfin and the Fetan Band. “Shellelle” is a traditional war cry. Both are chants which narrate the battles and account for the heroes, sung to boost confidence and inspiration." https://theex.bandcamp.com/album/lale-guma-addis-hum		0:42:28 (Pop-up)
Mdou Moctar	Tchinta "Tchinta" by "Mdou Moctar"	Funeral For Justice	Matador	2024	Released May 3. From the Guardian: "At a time when so many UK and US artists are shruggingly apolitical, the palpable anger blazing throughout Nigerien psych-rock guitarist Mdou Moctar’s second album on Matador, and seventh overall, feels like a powerful corrective. Following up on some of the issues raised on 2021’s hugely impressive Afrique Victime, Funeral for Justice doesn’t pull any punches, whether tackling the disastrous legacy of French colonialism (Oh France) and the failures of African leaders to build up their countries (the title track), or the way that Moctar’s native Tamasheq language is at risk of dying out as it loses out to French among younger people (the impassioned Imouhar). //// As ever, Moctar’s instrumentation is as incendiary as his words. His virtuoso guitar work – all fast-evolving riffs and thrillingly fluid soloing – is the focal point throughout, lifting the likes of Tchinta and Sousoume Tamacheq to a higher plane. His US-Nigerien band are just as important, however, building on the propulsive Tuareg desert blues, or assouf, popularised internationally by Tinariwen two decades ago, and creating an unstoppable momentum behind him. Dazzling."	*	0:47:51 (Pop-up)

Altin Gün	Kırık Cam	Vallahi Yok - Kırık Cam (Single)	ATO Records	2024	Released April 9, 2024. Altın Gün, Turkish psych-folk innovators, return with a glimmering new single consisting of two original songs composed by Merve and Jasper. The release is a farewell to Merve and coincided with the band's sold-out show at the legendary L’Olympia in Paris, which is also the first date of their spring European club tour. Merve leaves Altın Gün in May and the band will proceed as a five-piece. More tour dates and music are rumoured to be ahead in 2024. Altin Gün (Bandcamp)	*	0:56:26 (Pop-up)
Zea	Du Böst Dood Dub (Istari Lasterfahrer Remix)	Wat Ik Dacht Toen Ik Lag: The Dub Remix Album	Krachladen Dub	2024	This is a fairly radical reworking of "You're Dead" by Norma Cecilia. Either that, or it is those words used to augment this strange & wonderful new Dub Remix by Zea. //// "Norma Cecilia Tanega (January 30, 1939 – December 29, 2019) was an American folk and pop singer-songwriter, painter, and experimental musician. In the 1960s, she had a hit with the single "Walkin' My Cat Named Dog" and wrote songs for Dusty Springfield and other prominent musicians. In later decades, Tanega worked mostly as a percussionist, playing various styles of music in the bands Baboonz, hybridVigor, and Ceramic Ensemble. She also wrote "You're Dead", which was used as the theme song of the film What We Do in the Shadows and the TV series of the same name." /////// Zea is the project of Arnold DeBoer, which preceded & now runs concurrently with his time as the most recent singer (+guitarist) for The Ex. "An incredible roster is drafted for this very rare rethink and revisitation of work by the mighty Dutch oddities ZEA, a band most probably won't be too familiar with, and, as a quick Google will tell you, are definitely not ZE:A, a South Korean boy band who make decidedly more chart friendly (in South East Asia at least) forms of music. Instead, these Netherlanders are known for their Kraut, kosmische, post punk, DIY electro stylings, and those building blocks make for some excellent reworking courtesy of a cast from various sites of steeped musical heritage. Andy Moor (The Ex, Amsterdam), Desmond Denker, Phanton, and Begritty (Cologne), Yurke (Dusseldorf), Istari Lasterfahrer (Hamburg), Dubby King Knarf (Knarf Rellom, Hamburg) all offer their own takes on that which was already difficult to describe, making for a strange and beguiling collection which is impossible to say no to." https://zeamusic.bandcamp.com/	*	1:00:50 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Duane Eddy	Peter Gunn "Peter Gunn" by "Duane Eddy"	Peter Gunn (7")	London	1959	According to a Discogs user: "The UK release of Peter Gunn has three main points of note: 1. The track was picked up by Decca ahead of it's native USA Jamie (Pennsylvania) release who relegated the track to a B side. //////// 2. Decca were in the throws of changing their dinking process and dinkers from original Capitol USA optional centre (OC) three sided cutters that left an attractive and UK cherished tri-centre finish to a four sided cutter leaving a round and 4 leg centre. All original first run pressings and the Stereo pressings came with the Tri Centre finish. //////// 3. Peter Gunn had just been released as HL W 8879 in Decca's regular mono 7" and 10" schellac pressings as stereo launch day was mooted. The RCA-Victor "Living Stereo" release of the USA South Pacific soundtrack album in late 1958 had given Decca the push it needed to launch their stereophonic records in the UK (being the UK licence’s for RCA) and to tie in with the release of a selection of albums and EP's featuring the "living stereo" release of The South Pacific soundtrack, Decca also released 4 special stereo 45's with a new catalogue prefix of SL (Stereo London) + their source codes and Peter Gunn was selected as the first SL W 4001. (Jamie had been experimenting with 4 track recordings and Peter Gunn was recorded on multi track and a the mix to stereo was done, Decca UK were offered the tapes and jumped at it). //// (a whole series of side by side stereo 45's was planned but after a meeting with the other UK companies it was agreed as a major hush-hush money spinner NOT to release regular stereo 45's but to keep stereo releases to EP's and Albums and charge the customer £1+ more for the privilege of being ripped off and keeping it all hush-hush no more came out, the truth of the matter that once the cutting lathe had been modified it did not cost any more or extra to cut a stereo lacquer over a mono one, but the buying public were not to know that and Decca, Pye and EMI shafted the public for a good decade). //// Peter Gunn did not get the same stereo treatment or reverence in it's homeland and only came out as a mono release making this UK Decca release a world wide exclusive in August 1959. naturally SL W 4001 was exported by Decca far and wide to promote stereophonic records. It was a bulk standard UK release on Stereo launch day but few were sold, the stereo mix naturally leaves the mono one standing and rather pointless) //// (The UK "Living Stereo" release of The South Pacific soundtrack put the album back on the #1 spot and kept it there for over another year! It was a licence to print money and made Decca and RCA a fortune)"		1:05:16 (Pop-up)
Chris Knox	Rapist "Rapist" by "Chris Knox"	Seizure	Flying Nun Records	1990	For every introverted soul who feared the sunlight, people and being seen or addressed in public, Chris Knox wrote songs for them. The famous godfather of New Zealand punk and lo-fi influenced all things that ultimately became the lame, overgeneralized indie label. No Chris Knox, no Pavement. No Chris Knox, no Yo La Tengo. No Chris Knox, no Neutral Milk Hotel. The music world became a better place when Knox sat down alone in his bedroom, inserted a high-bias cassette into his 4-track recorder, used his casiotone preset beats as his backing band and recorded his punk rock screeds.Ultimately, songwriting set Knox apart from countless other New Zealand punks who called the Flying Nun label home. Seizure’s 4-track recordings play like a musical diary, something remarkably unique in any punk scene across the globe. Chris was also having a big reassessment of his behaviour and the attitudes at work behind it. He had been supporting The Clean at an Orientation gig at Sammy's in Dunedin when his always opinionated intersong prattle got away from him and became rather ugly. Others did notice it, and so did Chris, who saw it as a clear signal to sort himself out and, as a consequence, the way he dealt with others. It was a karmic moment without the unnecessary karma. This was the crisis that created the start of the journey towards a more mellow Chris. The Seizure album was the first bit of output to come from this period of transformation, and you can plainly hear that he is keen to get on with it. There is to be some angst before the calm.		1:16:31 (Pop-up)
Mhaol	Asking For It "Asking For It" by "Mhaol"	Attachment Styles	Merge Records	2023	M(h)aol (pronounced male) are formed of Róisín Nic Ghearailt, Constance Keane, Jamie Hyland, Zoë Greenway, and Sean Nolan. Asking For It is an incredibly intimate and rough song that has evolved over time. It was the first song Róisn ever wrote to try to process some of her feelings and experiences with r*pe culture. On the track she comments: "I wrote it initially in 2016 then revisited it in 2020. I was shocked by how much internalised victim blaming there was in the lyrics. I rewrote it, then we recorded it and it was released to raise money for Women's Aid in 2021. The album version is a lot angrier than the 2021 one and almost satirical insofar as it's highlighting how ludicrous the notion of anyone 'asking for it' is."		1:18:24 (Pop-up)
Descendants	I Wanna Be a Bear "I Wanna Be a Bear" by "Descendants"	Milo Goes To College	SST Records	1982	Milo Goes to College is the debut studio album by the American punk rock band Descendents. The album's mix of fast and aggressive hardcore punk with melody and semi-ironic love songs led to it being considered one of the most significant albums of the early 1980s southern California hardcore movement. In the decades since its release, it has received highly positive reviews and is now considered among the most noteworthy and important punk albums by several publications. Milo Goes to College has been cited as influential and a favorite by several notable artists and musicians. It is considered by many to be a foundational record for the pop-punk genre.		1:20:38 (Pop-up)
Superdrag	Destination Ursa Minor "Destination Ursa Minor" by "Superdrag"	Regretfully Yours	Elektra	1996	Superdrag is an American alternative rock band from Knoxville, Tennessee, United States. They had a hit single in 1996, "Sucked Out", from their album Regretfully Yours. The original lineup reunited in 2007, releasing a full-length album in 2009: Industry Giants. The same lineup reunited again in 2021. Sucked Out of course was the big hit from this record...but I feel that they have much better songs....case in point the one we played. This takes me back to a time when Weezer and Sloan ruled the indie waves...maybe not a better time...but a different one.		1:21:21 (Pop-up)
The Frogs	Bear "Bear" by "The Frogs"	Hopscotch Lollipop Sunday Surprise	The Frogs	2001	Hopscotch Lollipop Sunday Surprise is a studio album by The Frogs, released in 2001. Although brushing on satirical homoerotic and religious themes, the album chiefly consists of serious love songs. This is....quite unlike most Frogs recordings, as well as attention to a higher level of overall production. Are they social commentators, novelty songwriters with a perverse need to stick it to you, or genuine idiot savants with highly disturbed, eight-year-old psyches? Only the brothers know for sure. In any event, the world is a more interesting place with them in it. You’ll laugh, you’ll fume, you’ll love or hate them: the Frogs engender everything but indifference. So why aren’t they superstars? Perhaps in a parallel and preferable universe, they are.		1:25:07 (Pop-up)
The Stranglers	Bear Cage "Bear Cage" by "The Stranglers"	Bear Cage / Shah Shah A Go Go	United Artists	1980	Originally a non album track, this tune would find its way on later reissues of The Raven. This song did reach #36 on the charts despite many saying the B Side was superior...and while the meanings of this song could be applied to the difficulties of modern life, JJ Burnel was quoted on this saying "It’s about GMBH, the German equivalent of Limited Company. It’s another sort of travelogue written about Berlin. We spent a lot of money on a video for that which was crap! It did fuck all as a single…"		1:28:28 (Pop-up)
Dub Spencer & Trance Hill	Eisbaer	Riding Strange Horses	Echo Beach	2010	"Eisbär" is a 1980 song by the Swiss Neue Deutsche Welle band Grauzone. The song features a man singing he wants to be "a polar bear in the cold polar", because by being one he "wouldn't have to cry any longer and everything would be fine." The instrumental arrangement also evokes an Arctic atmosphere. It is shocking, how many times this song has been covered. I had no idea. It makes sense that Grauzone would choose Eisbar...seeing as they are also Swiss. Riding Strange Horses sees them making other very interesting choices for covers, like Genesis' Mama, and Metallica's Enter Sandman. I am Swiss...and I'll never truly understand the Swiss....really.		1:31:18 (Pop-up)

Big Black	I Can Be Killed "I Can Be Killed" by "Big Black"	Lungs	Ruthless Records / Touch & Go	1982	"Steve Albini, a legend of rock n’ roll who produced albums for Nirvana, P.J. Harvey, and The Pixies, as well as his own music, has died at 61. He suffered a heart attack Tuesday night, a staffer at Electrical Audio, the recording studio he founded in the late ’90s, confirmed. //// Alongside his storied producing career, Albini also performed with his band Shellac. Shellac was preparing to release its first album since 2014 just next week and had scheduled tour dates for later this year. //// Albini’s influence on alternative rock—particularly grunge, post-punk, and its ilk—in the mid- to late ’90s can’t be overstated. While his own bands, including Shellac and Big Black, which he fronted in the 1980s, gained esteem, it’s his work as a record producer—or rather as an engineer, his preferred title—that cemented his legacy. His credits are lengthy and arguably unparalleled: In 1993 alone, Albini worked on Nirvana’s In Utero, P.J. Harvey’s Rid of Me, and Jawbreaker’s 24 Hour Revenge Therapy—each one ranking among the greatest albums ever made." //// This is from Big Black's first EP. "The first hundred or so copies were cut and glued by Steve and Jon Babbin (the Effigies' manager). Some copies had cool inserts (razor blades, hair, blood, bazooka Joe comics, pictures of dead people, bumper stickers, PIL tickets and other miscellaneous crap), some didn't. Included an insert with production notes and lyrics. //// Re-released on Touch And Go in 1992."		1:41:14 (Pop-up)
Pixies	Bone Machine "Bone Machine" by "Pixies"	Surfer Rosa (Remastered)	4AD	1988 / 2007	"Both Surfer Rosa and Steve Albini's production of the album have been influential on alternative rock, and on grunge in particular. Nirvana's Kurt Cobain cited Surfer Rosa as the basis for Nevermind's songwriting. When he first heard the album, Cobain discovered a template for the mix of heavy noise and pop he was aiming to achieve. He remarked in 1992 that he "heard songs off of Surfer Rosa that I'd written but threw out because I was too afraid to play them for anybody." Cobain hired Albini to produce Nirvana's 1993 album In Utero, primarily due to his contribution to Surfer Rosa. The Smashing Pumpkins' Billy Corgan described Surfer Rosa as "the one that made me go, 'holy shit'. It was so fresh. It rocked without being lame." Corgan was impressed by the album's drum sound, and acknowledged that The Smashing Pumpkins used to study the record for its technical elements. Musician PJ Harvey said that Surfer Rosa "blew my mind," and that she "immediately went to track down Steve Albini." Cobain listed Surfer Rosa as one of the top 50 albums he thought were most influential to Nirvana's sound in his journal in 1993. //// People connected with the band were impressed by the record. Ivo Watts-Russell recalled: "I remember when I first heard Surfer Rosa thinking, 'I didn't know the Pixies could sound like The Fall.' That was my immediate reaction, in other words, incredibly raw." Gary Smith, who at the time was in a disagreement with the band, admitted he "was really happy that they had made such a forceful, aggressive, record." Dinosaur Jr.'s J Mascis, comparing the record to the later Pixies albums Bossanova and Trompe le Monde, said he thought that Steve Albini's production "sounded way better than the other ones." //// In 1991, as Pixies were recording Trompe le Monde, Albini told the fan magazine Forced Exposure that Surfer Rosa was "a patchwork pinch loaf from a band who at their top dollar best are blandly entertaining college rock", and said of the band: "Their willingness to be 'guided' by their manager, their record company and their producers is unparalleled. Never have I seen four cows more anxious to be led around by their nose rings." In 2005, Albini apologized for the remarks, saying: "To this day I regret having done it. I don't think that I regarded the band as significantly as I should have."		1:45:43 (Pop-up)
Shellac	Ghosts "Ghosts" by "Shellac"	1000 Hurts	Touch & Go Records	2000	Shellac's 4th album is due out May 19, just a couple of weeks after Steve Albini's death. A tour was planned to accompany the album. Here is a track from an earlier Shellac album, since no tracks are yet releaed from the forthcoming one. //// "In the studio, Albini “embraced the sickly causes of analog tape and nonautomated mixing back in the 1980s and never let go,” Fulks added. “His advocacy was both principled and extreme, and it took a lot of grit, as well as some money, which he earned from his Nirvana record and many poker competitions, to keep the cause afloat.” In his later years, Albini spent time on the professional poker circuit, was an avid Chicago Cubs fan and he was behind many charitable causes. Letters to Santa, an annual Christmas show at Second City he produced over two decades with his wife, Heather Whinna, raised money every year for Chicago’s neediest families through a 24-hour rotation of performances from both music stars and comedy improvisers. He once described the moment he read a letter Whinna brought home from the post office. “These weren’t impish requests for toys or a new bike; mostly, they were desperate pleas from heads of households asking for help. It was staggering,” he wrote. “I couldn’t help but be moved when I read it, and the realization that there were hundreds — no, thousands — of these letters changed something in me.”"		1:48:43 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Duane Eddy	The Ballad Of Paladin "The Ballad Of Paladin" by "Duane Eddy"	The Ballad Of Paladin	RCA	1962	""The Ballad of Paladin" is a song written by Johnny Western, Richard Boone, and Sam Rolfe and performed by Duane Eddy. The song reached No. 10 on the UK Singles Chart and No. 33 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1962. Members of the Western Writers of America chose it as one of the Top 100 Western songs of all time. Eddy's flip side was the theme to The Wild Westerners. //// The song was produced by Lee Hazlewood and arranged by Bob Thompson. Drummer Earl Palmer played on the session. Duane Eddy was good friends with the show's star Richard Boone and appeared with him in a couple of the episodes. He also appeared with him in the 1982 motion picture The Wild Westerners //// The song was also used heavily in the film Stand by Me. //// Johnny Western recorded the original version in 1958 that was the regular theme to the television show Have Gun – Will Travel from the second season on--it was used at least four times in season 1, including episodes 33 & 34. His co-writers were the show's star and creator. Years later, he recorded a parody, "The Ballad of Palindrome", with the western swing and comedy group Riders in the Sky."		1:52:19 (Pop-up)
The Ex	Mother "Mother" by "The Ex"	Starters & Alternators	Touch And Go	1998	One of my all time favourite songs, not just musically, but also about Mothers, the best workers in the world. Happy Mother's Day. //// This is the first album that saw the union of Steve Albini & Dutch Punk (+ so much more) band The Ex. The artwork from this album features pictures of members with his microphones, and also pictures of Steve Albini himself. The next full-length Ex album would also feature Albini as producer & photo-insert honourary band member. "		1:56:24 (Pop-up)

	8:16pm DJ Babs: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:13 Also I think all Australians get a pass on flip flops.
	8:16pm DJ Babs: They are a beachy people lol.
	8:17pm Mr Fab: Who would want to be barefoot on stage? Stepping on cables n stuff. Ouch.
	8:17pm laurapanic: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:08 I looked at the playlist, but forgot to listen!! will do!! you played my mates so I gotta!
	8:17pm DJ Babs: The only thing I would never ever wear on stage again is leather. Jesus christ what a mess.
	8:18pm laurapanic: I can't do barefoot onstage. Its comfy but stomp boxes hurt my feet if bare.
	8:19pm ultradamno: A performer should always be less comfortable than the audience. The Scientists could get pointy toes going, that's the standard i.discogs.com...
	8:19pm DJ Babs: That makes sense. Hellooo Laura!!!
	🏝 8:19pm Scott_Oz: ↳ DJ Babs @8:16 The bloke has obviously never been to the tropics Babs. 🍻😎🤙🩴🩴
	8:19pm DJ Babs: ↳ ultradamno @8:19 I do love a pointy toe. All toes must be pointy pretty much.
	🏝 8:20pm Scott_Oz: ↳ laurapanic @8:17 Would that be the Gong boys of Hoon mate? 🍻😎🤙💨☕🌻
	8:20pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Hey You!" by "Ursula 1000 & Fred Schneider" Our buddy U1k! I asked him what Fred is like. He said that he's great, he's just so crazy. Happy to hear that. Looks like you CAN meet some of your heroes and still love 'em.
	8:21pm ultradamno: You know how more than three chords and you're into jazz? Less than full leather covering and you're becoming a parrothead
	8:21pm laurapanic: ↳ ultradamno @8:09 well that was fucken perfect. Chuck D is a sage.
	8:22pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Hey You!" by "Ursula 1000 & Fred Schneider" honk ! honk!
	8:22pm laurapanic: ↳ ultradamno @8:19 I like this
	8:23pm laurapanic: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:20 no, river of snakes and schkeiditzer kreuse
	8:23pm DJ Babs: ↳ Mr Fab @8:20 fred was absolutely DELIGHTFUL when I met him. I want to hang with him SO BADLY.
	8:25pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:13 Glad to hear you had fun, Scott! So happy you are guesting here & there...!
	🏝 8:25pm Scott_Oz: ↳ laurapanic @8:23 Awesome mate! They're great!
	8:26pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Posh People In Pop" by "Meatraffle" wow, this first verse is TELLING IT
	8:27pm DJ Babs: Meatraffle do not fuck around, lol.
	8:27pm ultradamno: So heathan ladies love Bryan Ferry? Good to know.
	🏝 8:27pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Song: "Posh People In Pop" by "Meatraffle" Best Pub Band name!! 🍻🥩
	8:28pm Derek Westerholm: Hello there also Tom P & LauraP... Lovely to see everyone here today.
	8:29pm Mr Fab: "I am not entirely sure it is successful, but here we are."- LOL!
	8:31pm laurapanic: I had a few sobs yesterday. Therese did an opulent and wonderful Albini special. He was one of Very Few Men who has had any influence on my art and music and thinking. Big tears when she played a Shellac song. I had avoided hearing any until that point. I feel very sad for his partner and studio colleagues.
	8:32pm ultradamno: Well, now I'm imagining Zsa Zsa tooling around in this www.rushisaband.com...
	8:34pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @8:32 ...it was definitely Gabor I was thinking of in that. Getting allergic smelling hay
	8:34pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @8:32 Not the worst thing to imagine, I suppose
	8:35pm ultradamno: Rush is not the most boring band I've ever seen, that's The Police, but close.
	8:35pm Bob Barth: I suddenly had a whole new view on Zsa Zsa Gabour
	8:36pm Derek Westerholm: Haha, so much love for Zsa Zsa here on the beach... any/all of them...
	8:41pm Alli B: Absolute tune
	8:41pm ultradamno: mastodon.social...
	8:43pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Teper My Hovorymo" by "The Wedding Present" The spin-off band The Ukrainians were great. Ukrainian style covers of the velvet underground, the Smiths, Prince, Sex Pistols. Loved that stuff.
	8:43pm DJ Babs: Ahhhh the coconut lacroix and vodka is going down well tonight!
	8:43pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Alli B @8:41 Wedding Present are so good.
	8:44pm DJ Babs: Oooh I fucking love this song by so much!!!!
	8:45pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Mr Fab @8:43 As well as lots of traditional Ukrainian songs & also new songs that Peter Solowka and the band wrote themselves, the covers were more novelties that they ran with now & then, though those are also excellent!
	8:50pm laurapanic: ↳ Bob Barth @8:35 hey Bob, I have fancy corporate thing at 12 midday, which is when you start here. I'm gonna see if I can sit up the back and sneakily listen to one night stand, whilst nodding and smiling knowingly at the meeting presenter.
	8:51pm lesliehastonhurst: ❤️❤️❤️❤️
	8:51pm lesliehastonhurst: ❤️❤️❤️❤️
	8:51pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ lesliehastonhurst @8:51 Hello Leslie & Hurstststssss
	8:52pm lesliehastonhurst: Heeeyyy!!
	8:53pm DJ Babs: Heloooo Leslie!!!!!!
	8:55pm DJ Babs: Hope you are doing great!
	8:56pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Non" by "Christian Olivier" First a song with Boyd Rice and now one about him
	8:57pm DJ Babs: I very much like this song!
	8:58pm DJ Babs: ↳ laurapanic @8:50 Ah forbidden WFMU is the sweetest of them all LOL
	9:01pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @8:56 Haha... A "Non" joke?
	9:02pm ultradamno: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:01 You can't just whip those out any old where, so you've got to jump on the opportunities as they present themselves.
	9:02pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @9:02 lol
	9:02pm DJ Babs: ↳ ultradamno @9:02 That was quite amazing I do say.
	9:04pm Bob Barth: ↳ laurapanic @8:50 You're the best. Very curious to hear your thoughts on my song tonight. ;)
	9:04pm ultradamno: metro.co.uk...
	9:06pm DJ Babs: Such a great show as well! They are wrapping the filming of the last season here right now. :-(
	9:08pm ultradamno: The problem with doing a vampire series is the characters don't age while the actors do (second season and they're already on a second Claudia on Interview With A Vampire)
	9:11pm DJ Babs: ↳ ultradamno @9:08 I have really been wanting to watch that Interview With A Vampire...is it good?
	9:11pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Peter Gunn" by "Duane Eddy" By the way, Morricone Island has been doing all Mancini tribute shows (in honor of his 100th) three down so far, Peter Gunn appears in the first www.wfmu.org...
	9:11pm DJ Babs: And yes, don't write a kid into your vampire series LOL.
	🏝 9:11pm Will thee SG OCNY: Hi DJ Babs, Derek, and all!!!
	9:12pm DJ Babs: Hello Hi Will!!! Hope you are doing great...thank you for joining us tonight!
	9:14pm ultradamno: ↳ DJ Babs @9:11 I like it a lot, actually. The Claudia they had was great and the Louis is really good and the interviewer Eric Bogosian... Yeah, that horrible Let The Right In series comes to mind, though that was the tip of the iceberg when it came to that show's problems
	9:15pm ultradamno: ...Right *One, that is
	9:17pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @8:58 secret lady WFMU business
	9:18pm laurapanic: ↳ ultradamno @9:11 love that show.....this time of year pushes the coolest shows to early morning here, and I'm not by the radio at that time. Its such a great show for movie nerds.
	9:19pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Rapist" by "Chris Knox" oh this album....I saw Chris countless times in the early 90s....too young for Tall Dwarves etc. He was so great live, so good, such a lovely time in my life. I have this LP and its in my Top 20 all time. for sure. He has been very unwell.
	9:19pm DJ Babs: I hear, it's such a very important record for sure.
	9:20pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Asking For It" by "Mhaol" this album is VERY GOOD
	9:20pm DJ Babs: oh hells yes it is. It is a fucking war cry. I love this band.
	9:20pm ultradamno: This has me thinking of Attila The Stockbroker's Contributory Negligence
	9:20pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @9:19 so important, I'm tired, but hearing it makes me happy weepy
	9:22pm Tinley Park Randy: The Boiler. Crazy disgusting.
	9:24pm DJ Babs: Greetings Tinley! Ah yes. The Boiler is...a hard listen.
	9:25pm DJ Babs: Ahhh this is some fresh old shoegaze. I love it and kinda miss it!
	9:25pm Laura Panic: Ha! I wanna be a bear is topical! That discourse has been PERFECT
	9:25pm DJ Babs: Those l'il bits are happygaze LOL.
	9:26pm Derek Westerholm: Hello Tinley Park Randy, hello also WillTheeSG!!
	9:26pm DJ Babs: ↳ Laura Panic @9:25 Oh fuck it's been a rough go in the comment sections LOL. Not here..just everywhere else!
	9:27pm DJ Babs: @Tinley Park Randy is that a Trailer Park Boys reference?!?!
	9:30pm Tinley Park Randy: No. I’ve never watched it. Ken played it on his show a while back. Felt ill afterwards.
	🏝 9:30pm Scott_Oz: STRANGLERS!!!
	9:30pm Mr Fab: ↳ DJ Babs @9:26 Oh yeah? How so?
	9:30pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tinley Park Randy @9:30 hahah!!!
	9:31pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @9:26 men in general got Very Angery. And almost 100% of the time, proving WHY WE CHOOSE THE BEAR
	9:31pm DJ Babs: ↳ Mr Fab @9:30 Apparently a lot of fellows don't like to hear that women are afraid of them. So then their chosen response seems to be...threatening violence against women? It's not great.
	🏝 9:32pm Scott_Oz: Just found out I'm going to see The Clouds tonight. Jodi Phillis (Guitar/Vox) put my name on the door. 🍻😎🤙
	9:33pm DJ Babs: Nice Scott!
	9:34pm DJ Babs: Too bad Kristine isn't with us tonight, She'd lose her shit over this! I'm still on the fence but of ALL the covers of Eisbaer that I listened to this week...this one was the one I had to play!!!
	9:34pm laurapanic: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:32 oh that is so great!!!! I had a ticket last year but couldn't escape to go. I saw her sister's band a couple of weeks ago.
	9:34pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @9:31 no it is not.
	9:35pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @9:34 love me a bit of obscure song canon!
	9:35pm ultradamno: ↳ DJ Babs @9:31 They are kind of demonstrating the point, I guess
	9:36pm DJ Babs: precisely.
	🏝 9:38pm Scott_Oz: ↳ laurapanic @9:34 Sorry ya missed it mate. Yeah Jodi has moved to Bendigo recently & become a Trash Cult regular, played a solo show there too. 🍻😎🤙💨☕
	9:40pm laurapanic: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:38 oh really?? Wow, I think she was up here in Blue Mtns before.....
	9:43pm laurapanic: oh let's go. What an artist. What a technician.
	9:44pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "I Can Be Killed" by "Big Black" mastodon.social... mastodon.social...
	9:46pm laurapanic: ↳ ultradamno @9:44 are those your posters? Wonderful. 'some big theatre in Muncie" I mean that would probably be sufficient info.....
	9:47pm ultradamno: ↳ laurapanic @9:46 Very helpful. It was downtown, I remember that. They are mine, yeah.
	9:48pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:47 They could have put 'just over the gay bar' too
	9:49pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Bone Machine" by "Pixies" though he apologised for his brusque message delivery, there must have been grains of truth.....
	9:51pm ultradamno: That cows line always stuck with me, it's funny
	9:52pm laurapanic: ↳ ultradamno @9:51 its gloriously florid
	🏝 9:52pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Song: "Ghosts" by "Shellac" Sounds like the metal pick is out. 🎸
	9:52pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Ghosts" by "Shellac" a person of dimensions and many chapters. Missed.

	9:53pm Derek Westerholm: Hello there v-dawg! Welcome, anytime!
	9:53pm ultradamno: Thurston Moore posted a lengthy multi-post tribute where he touches on his jabs at them for signing with Geffen twitter.com...
	9:53pm DJ Babs: Howdy V-dawg! We’re just digging into some albini tracks here! Hope you are good!
	9:55pm Bob Barth: Hey Gang! Tonight on the show: JULIA HOLTER! follow me this way into the next hour wfmu.org...
	9:56pm laurapanic: ↳ ultradamno @9:53 that is a lovely thread
	9:56pm Mr Fab: I would usually wait until an album had been out a while and I could pick up a used copy, often a promo. (I was pretty durn poor as a yoof!) But Big Black's "Atomizer" and Pixies "Surfer Rosa" got the rare new, full $ amount immediate purchase.
	🏝 9:57pm Scott_Oz: Thanks Babs & Derek, great stuff guys! 🌏🌞🍻😎🤙💨🍺🍷🌻
