Hey, let's try this: submit a link for audio or video here, and I will devote the last half hour of today's show to the links you post here in the comments section. As long as the link you submit works, streams (no downloads!) and is FCC-friendly, I'll play it as long as I can fit it in. But here are a few ground rules: 1) don't submit links to your own band or music; 2) submit short segments (a few minutes); 3) keep them clean and non-yucky 4) one suggestion per person, 5) make sure they stream well!

Anarchy in the UK* by the Duke of Uke -- 2min
Oh. Well, downloads stream if you have an audio player rigged up with the browser, set to play, so..
9:28am
Michaell:
Even before I saw that Duke of Uke submission super, I immediately thought of this artist:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_m4DDkMfol0
this is her ukulele version of Jonathan Coulton's "Tom Cruse Crazy"; I was considering her attempts (finally successful) at the same artist's "Mr Fancy Pants"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_m4DDkMfol0
but I was concerned they might annoy too many people.
David Peel? The world's best anti-drug argument.

Michael:
Bonzo Dog doing "Equestrian Statue" (3:45) and "Little Sir Echo" (2:15)---you might want to just play the first, which includes some good Vivian Stanshall patter, and the second is largely a visual joke:

This promotional short for Irving Mills' short-lived Master and Variety labels not only gives us a glimpse of Ellington and his band in the actual Master/Variety studios (as opposed to a soundstage set), but is one of the very few film accounts of how records were recorded, plated and pressed in the long-ago age of analog, shellac and 78 rpm. Narration is provided by pioneer radio announcer Alois Havrilla.

I must say, I had quite a scare when I turned on the radio and discovered that between the eternal static was a kid singing about Xenu. What the hell song was that? How It All Began? Creepiest shit ever.

Was that seriously "Paint It Black"? Oh wow.
Also, I have a crush on Philip Seymour Hoffman. Feel free to express bewilderment if you're a guy. If you're a girl, you probably understand where I'm coming from.
I take back that last one. I would prefer to hear this:

slugluv1313:
thanks for the BARRA BARRA Ken . . . i am home from work to-day; don't have a computer at work so i don't get to hear yer show that often(in real time, at least) and certainly don't get to hear Rachid Taha at 10:45am -- YIPPEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
who is Philip Seymour Hoffman? i am *girl* but i guess i just don't understand . . . i know i could do a search but i think it would be an interesting experiment to have it explained to me BEFORE i do the search . . .
11:04am

Wes:
people of colour....you gotta love 'em (reminds me of an old man that used to drive around from store to store in a beat up delivery van, all it said on the back was "SNACKS....gotta love 'em"
In keeping with today's theme, I think it would be a shame to miss the opportunity to play Zappa's "Catholic Girls" from "Joe's Garage," or even more appropriate, from his "You Are What You Is," the suite of songs from "The Meek Shall Inherit Nothing" to "Heavenly Bank Account." All quite religiously appropriate, I think, Ken. Can I get any "yeas" from other listeners? If so, maybe Ken will get out of "the seat."
11:19am
Rococo Pagoda:
That's Steve Hillage
11:20am
Listener Dave:
Tony - I'll give that idea an "amen", except I think it violates the "not getting up for the reqeust" rule.
Plus I'm not sure if Ken is pro or anti-Zappa. We know how he feels about Rush, however.
11:20am
Ken:
Yes, thanks Rococo! I was too busy feeling bitter and clinging to my firearms to bring it up.
11:21am
I meant:

Steve Hillage = guy from GONG
*now* i remember who Philip Seymour Hoffman is: guy who portrayed Truman Capote (DUH)
11:22am
Laurie:
I'm a horrible listener/commenter. I keep changing my mind about what I want to hear. I want to post a link to those Argentinean kids playing Iron Maiden, but I will refrain because I've already changed my mind twice.
11:22am
Ghengis Jung:
The other guy in Gong is named Philip Seymour Hoffman.

wow hey photos! I am totally blowing off work now. especially since my very name fits the theme. "The rapture!!!" brings to mind a bit in Love & Rockets - a comment that Jesus gets all the pretty girls. And favorite PSH line is "don't touch that. thank you. yes, thank you.) from Big Lebowski.

Zappa is off the table, due to the fact that all FMU Zappa discs are stored in a locked shed out back by the parking lot. Not something that I personally approve of, but Ken's the station manager, not me.
11:27am
Laurie:
I changed my mind about refraining. Please disregard all of my choices except for these kids doing Iron Maiden:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=s_4aGXTHo7w
Or, alternately, you can ignore all of my choices because I am indecisive and making your job hard. Er. Harder.
