	♥ 9:18am pantz: Give me some of the Monday morning pep you possess, Joe!
	♥ 9:20am Joe McG: @pantz: It's going to be a show in a slightly lower key, mostly. But Single File will be the usual mess, so that will help. :)
	♥ 9:20am steveo: Greetings & salutations!
	9:21am Brendan: Cuckoo everyone!
	♥ 9:23am steveo: zero pep here; this track is a balm
	♥ 9:23am Uncle Michael: Who knew we were waiting for Haircut 316 all these years? This is nice.
	9:23am sonnyspop: Love Nick Heyward!
	9:23am Dennis Diken: howdy!
	♥ 9:25am Irene Trudel: Another lovely opening set, Joe! Great way to start my Monday.
	9:25am queems: good morning! great show so far
	♥ 9:26am Joe McG: Hey Dennis! Welcome steveo, Brendan, Uncle Mike, queems, sonnyspop. Irene! Nice to see you.
	♥ 9:27am BennettCap: Is that THE Pentangle I hear??
	9:28am John in Bklyn: Morning Joe and Noisers! Wait, was that the Haircut 100 guy?
	♥ 9:28am steveo: The name Pentangle was chosen to represent the five members of the band, and is also the device on Sir Gawain's shield in the Middle English poem Sir Gawain and the Green Knight which held a fascination for [John] Renbourn.
	♥ 9:30am Joe McG: @John: It was, indeed! His new LP sounds very good!
	♥ 9:30am medson: Good Morning Joe. Very nice set for this chilly rainy Monday Morning
	♥ 9:30am BennettCap: How do you pronounce it? Gow-en or ga-wane
	♥ 9:32am pantz: This is beautiful.
	♥ 9:32am Joe McG: Thanks, medson! Feels about right to me so far. Sorry to folks in sunnier climes.
	9:32am Schnipp: I thought I woke up in Jersey, but the voice and guitar strum suddenly make me feel in France
	9:33am John in Bklyn: @Joe Wow, I didn't know he was still going. That H-100 record was a fun one back in the day.
	♥ 9:33am steveo: i thought i was in the Japanese Riviera
	♥ 9:34am pantz: Is it possible she's singing to Marianne Faithful?
	♥ 9:35am Joe McG: @pantz: I should have asked her that!
	9:37am annie: running a laundry today down in the basement, have to leave for spurts of time.. please play bad music during those times?
	9:39am Paul In Bloomfield: Morning Joe morning everyone! that last tune was fantastic!
	9:40am Brendan: The listenership’s in tune to Joe’s impeccably crafted first set that fits this weather like a soft knit hat. Joe you have ‘the knack’ . But don’t get any crazy ideas and go playin My Sharona.
	9:44am Itzall Ablurr: The song by Gu. Man, what timing. A crew arrived next door to my home this morning to take down several SPECIMEN, over 100 yr. old hardwoods so they can build a couple of McMansions on the previously unmolested property. So f#cking sad. I won't know until I get home this evening if they left ANY of them standing. "Even a tree can shed tears", indeed.
	♥ 9:45am melinda: That was a great set.
	9:47am Paul In Bloomfield: New Mountain Goats! nice
	♥ 9:48am Joe McG: @Brendan: Love "My Sharona"! Maybe I'll play it 40 times in a row one of these shows. @Itzall: How very sad! @melinda: Thanks, melinda!
	9:51am Itzall Ablurr: Thanks Joe. I just ordered the record from Light In The Attic, maybe that will afford some solace.
	♥ 9:51am Lizardner Dave: 91.9 in NYC just went out
	♥ 9:53am Joe McG: @Lizardner: Uh-oh! We'll get some folks to check that out. Keep me posted!
	9:55am V Priceless: Hi Joe! I can't listen until after 11AM - looks like a great set though! I lurk regardless!
	♥ 9:55am The Oscar: I once had an argument with a friend about Forever Changes-- he characterized it as a sweet, sentimental album, and I insisted that it was a paranoid, borderline-apocalyptic record about pending doom. What's really interesting, I realized later, is that my friend was mostly citing Bryan MacLean's songs, and I was talking about Arthur Lee's.
	9:55am Rich in NC: morning all---hi Joe
	9:56am Brendan: @Joe- 40 times in a day. That sounds about right for its heyday. Good tune -always liked those songs that had a break then went into a totally different tune. Good two for one value
	♥ 9:56am Joe McG: Great to see you at Strawbs, VP! @TheOscar: Yes, it's kind of both! Hey Rich!
	9:57am Schnipp: Haha. Alexander Spence. But Skip to his friends and acolytes.
	♥ 9:58am Uncle Michael: Either oar, Schipp.
	10:00am Schnipp: Paranoid schizophrenia just fits in so well with the FMU demographic
	10:03am the fake andy plants: This track though, que bueno
	♥ 10:04am The Oscar: I love that "Fake John Carpenter Score" is now a genre of music.
	♥ 10:07am Hughie Considine: I'm more concerned that "sad clown cover" is now a genre of music.
	10:07am Paul In Bloomfield: William Eggleston the photographer??
	♥ 10:08am Joe McG: @Paul: The very same!
	♥ 10:08am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning Joe and all! Speaking of soundtracks—saw Morricone Youth (and Goblin) last night. Never so happy to see a packed crowd for the opening act.
	10:08am Paul In Bloomfield: wow. how bout that.
	♥ 10:08am The Oscar: (I realize that that may have sounded sarcastic, but I genuinely love it. This includes the fake scores released by Carpenter himself!)
	10:09am Jeff Moore: ...or a rather tough worm in your little inside
	♥ 10:09am The Oscar: Also I can't hear "Titwillow" without thinking of Sam the Eagle.
	♥ 10:09am Uncle Michael: Long live Puddles.
	10:10am Dennis Diken: love Allan Sherman's take on "Tit Willow", aka "The Bronx Bird Watcher"
	♥ 10:10am Joe McG: @Greg: Very sorry to have missed that! :(
	♥ 10:10am Uncle Michael: Dennis, for me that's the original version!
	10:11am Will: Keepin' it ethereal on a misty Monday morn.
	♥ 10:13am MD: Hail!
	10:14am Parq: The Oscar, for me, it's the Alan Sherman lyrics.
	10:14am BronwynB: good morning joe and everyone. i own two versions of tit willow, one by groucho marx and the other by eric idle
	10:14am Parq: Oh hi, Dennis, sorry, didn't see that there.
	10:15am queems: ooooh love this
	10:15am βrian: Camille, Camille, Camille !
	♥ 10:15am Passaic River Blues: The wolves! This is great.
	10:16am Jeff Moore: William Eggleston: Compelling photographer, now we learn guitar guy, and of course maker of those excellent loudspeakers. egglestonworks.com
	10:16am Dennis Diken: Uncle Michael - me too! Parq - good taste!
	10:16am V Priceless: @ Joe - back at ya!
	10:21am Jeff Moore: The accent tréma ¨ (dieresis) can be on an E, I, or U. It is used when two vowels are next to each other and both must be pronounced, e.g., naïve, Saül.
	♥ 10:23am Passaic River Blues: Excellent selection, Joe. The single 45 and 12" versions are both gold.
	10:24am melinda: Always nice to hear Oblivious.
	♥ 10:24am Wendy del Formaggio: Good morning, Joe! I'm glad you're playing this Aztec Camera song. It's been in my head lately, and supposedly if you hear the actual song, it helps chase it from your head. It's also okay if it stays a while longer.
	♥ 10:25am Joe McG: @Wendy: Hope it helps, Wendy!
	10:27am northguineahills: If anyone saw the most recent episode of Mr. Robot, they played a few minutes here and there of Philip Glass's "Einstein on the Beach" (my favorite opera of his).
	♥ 10:28am BennettCap: I love Sandy Posey! A whole set!
	10:28am Paul In Bloomfield: Single File is off to a great start!
	♥ 10:28am Sem Chumbo: Hello, Joe, McGaskoes. Good Day from sunny and +8C Nova Scotia, where gardening continues. (will it never end?)
	♥ 10:30am Joe McG: Good day, Sem!
	♥ 10:30am steveo: all this weekend I had Wichita Lineman stuck in my head and even went listen to Mary Wings Drummer archive with all the cover versions to try and chase it from my head; didn't work immediately, but now it's finally gone.. wow this Pete Drake is SUPER.
	♥ 10:31am The Oscar: Huh-- don't think I've ever heard Pete Drake without the talkbox!
	10:31am Paul In Bloomfield: That Pete Drake was fabulous
	10:31am northguineahills: Thanks steveo, now it's back in my head, and I finally purged it a few days ago.
	♥ 10:32am pantz: "We play both types, Country AND Western."
	♥ 10:32am steveo: :W
	♥ 10:32am steveo: (sorry ngh)
	♥ 10:33am The Oscar: @steveo I went to Denmark shortly after Glen Campbell died, and had Wichita Lineman (specifically the chorus/one-note solo) stuck in my head the ENTIRE flight over. I finally got it out of my head, only to hear a Danish jazz big band cover it at Tivoli Garden!
	10:34am queems: ok what's the catch here guy
	♥ 10:34am pantz: Preach!
	♥ 10:35am MD: STAND TALL! MY BREATHREN!!!
	♥ 10:36am steveo: It's very catchy, apparently. And probably one of the most-played songs around here this year.
	♥ 10:36am MD: ARE YOU LISTENING HARVEY AND KEVIN!?!?
	10:37am djsheilab: Joe! I️ can’t believe you played Love Child. I️ haven’t heard that song in years! It took me back in the very best way. Thanks!
	10:37am northguineahills: I believe it was Trouble that linked the amazing NYT article that had Sachilo Kanenobu in it.
	♥ 10:37am steveo: Turning up The Hollies...
	♥ 10:38am Dominick: Hollies!
	♥ 10:39am Passaic River Blues: @NGH: you're right, that was Trouble. She prepped us for Joe today.
	10:40am BriJet: We love hearing you talk! :)
	♥ 10:40am steveo: yay for B-sides!
	10:43am fletchernyc: What is your bed music??
	♥ 10:46am Joe McG: @fletcher: Kevin Ayers, "Crystal Clear"
	10:51am northguineahills: Gu should get back together and cover "Goo".
	♥ 10:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Weather alert: It's snowing up here now. Please make some Moondog-branded ice scrapers available in the WFMU store. Thanks!
	10:54am Cheri Pi: this is great Joe!
	10:55am northguineahills: What Cheri Pi said! They should take a pic of Moondog w/ a Viking helmet.
	♥ 10:55am Joe McG: @Cheri: She was so sweet and interesting and I'm so happy to bring this to you today!
	10:56am Rich in NC: This is so nice Joe

	11:08am Paul In Bloomfield: This stuff is fantastic!
	11:08am northguineahills: Wow, the last one reminded me of Espers.
	11:11am Brendan: @Joe, i wonder if she knows what ever happened to Nobue Kawana?
	♥ 11:11am steveo: great interview!
	11:13am Paul In Bloomfield: I have to step away from my desk for a minute, but dont want to miss any of this interview!
	♥ 11:14am Joe McG: My pleasure, Ewe Alone and Irene and rw! @Brendan: Good question! I wonder if she knew her?
	11:15am Cheri Pi: Neat, I love translating Japanese

	11:20am djsheilab: I just had a look on Discogs and an original copy of "Misora" goes for more than $1000 (teardrops fall into tea).

	11:28am melinda: @queems yes!
	11:30am northguineahills: @queems: It's little warm here for my fuzzy sweater, so, I'll be making a bowl of soup for lunch!
	♥ 11:31am Jeff Golick: Great radio. Hi, Joe.
	♥ 11:33am Joe McG: Hey Jeff! Enjoyed your premium this year a lot!
	11:34am Itzall Ablurr: A thousand bucks for "Misora", eh? I'll have to be content with the Youtube listening, that ain't hay. Such a great interview.
	11:35am melinda: These songs are perfect for today.
	11:35am northguineahills: This is so brilliant!, I don't believe I heard her until now (Only read about her). Thanks Joe (in advance)!

	9:18am BriJet: Hi! I was in the wrong window ahhhh!
	♥ 9:18am pantz: Give me some of the Monday morning pep you possess, Joe!
	♥ 9:20am Joe McG: @pantz: It's going to be a show in a slightly lower key, mostly. But Single File will be the usual mess, so that will help. :)
	♥ 9:20am steveo: Greetings & salutations!
	9:21am Brendan: Cuckoo everyone!
	♥ 9:23am steveo: zero pep here; this track is a balm
	♥ 9:23am Uncle Michael: Who knew we were waiting for Haircut 316 all these years? This is nice.
	9:23am sonnyspop: Love Nick Heyward!
	9:23am Dennis Diken: howdy!
	♥ 9:25am Irene Trudel: Another lovely opening set, Joe! Great way to start my Monday.
	9:25am queems: good morning! great show so far
	♥ 9:26am Joe McG: Hey Dennis! Welcome steveo, Brendan, Uncle Mike, queems, sonnyspop. Irene! Nice to see you.
	♥ 9:27am BennettCap: Is that THE Pentangle I hear??
	9:28am John in Bklyn: Morning Joe and Noisers! Wait, was that the Haircut 100 guy?
	♥ 9:28am steveo: The name Pentangle was chosen to represent the five members of the band, and is also the device on Sir Gawain's shield in the Middle English poem Sir Gawain and the Green Knight which held a fascination for [John] Renbourn.
	♥ 9:30am Joe McG: @John: It was, indeed! His new LP sounds very good!
	♥ 9:30am medson: Good Morning Joe. Very nice set for this chilly rainy Monday Morning
	♥ 9:30am BennettCap: How do you pronounce it? Gow-en or ga-wane
	♥ 9:32am pantz: This is beautiful.
	♥ 9:32am Joe McG: Thanks, medson! Feels about right to me so far. Sorry to folks in sunnier climes.
	9:32am Schnipp: I thought I woke up in Jersey, but the voice and guitar strum suddenly make me feel in France
	9:33am John in Bklyn: @Joe Wow, I didn't know he was still going. That H-100 record was a fun one back in the day.
	♥ 9:33am steveo: i thought i was in the Japanese Riviera
	♥ 9:34am pantz: Is it possible she's singing to Marianne Faithful?
	♥ 9:35am Joe McG: @pantz: I should have asked her that!
	9:37am annie: running a laundry today down in the basement, have to leave for spurts of time.. please play bad music during those times?
	9:39am Paul In Bloomfield: Morning Joe morning everyone! that last tune was fantastic!
	9:40am Brendan: The listenership’s in tune to Joe’s impeccably crafted first set that fits this weather like a soft knit hat. Joe you have ‘the knack’ . But don’t get any crazy ideas and go playin My Sharona.
	9:44am Itzall Ablurr: The song by Gu. Man, what timing. A crew arrived next door to my home this morning to take down several SPECIMEN, over 100 yr. old hardwoods so they can build a couple of McMansions on the previously unmolested property. So f#cking sad. I won't know until I get home this evening if they left ANY of them standing. "Even a tree can shed tears", indeed.
	♥ 9:45am melinda: That was a great set.
	9:47am Paul In Bloomfield: New Mountain Goats! nice
	♥ 9:48am Joe McG: @Brendan: Love "My Sharona"! Maybe I'll play it 40 times in a row one of these shows. @Itzall: How very sad! @melinda: Thanks, melinda!
	9:51am Itzall Ablurr: Thanks Joe. I just ordered the record from Light In The Attic, maybe that will afford some solace.
	♥ 9:51am Lizardner Dave: 91.9 in NYC just went out
	♥ 9:53am Joe McG: @Lizardner: Uh-oh! We'll get some folks to check that out. Keep me posted!
	9:55am V Priceless: Hi Joe! I can't listen until after 11AM - looks like a great set though! I lurk regardless!
	♥ 9:55am The Oscar: I once had an argument with a friend about Forever Changes-- he characterized it as a sweet, sentimental album, and I insisted that it was a paranoid, borderline-apocalyptic record about pending doom. What's really interesting, I realized later, is that my friend was mostly citing Bryan MacLean's songs, and I was talking about Arthur Lee's.
	9:55am Rich in NC: morning all---hi Joe
	9:56am Brendan: @Joe- 40 times in a day. That sounds about right for its heyday. Good tune -always liked those songs that had a break then went into a totally different tune. Good two for one value
	♥ 9:56am Joe McG: Great to see you at Strawbs, VP! @TheOscar: Yes, it's kind of both! Hey Rich!
	9:57am Schnipp: Haha. Alexander Spence. But Skip to his friends and acolytes.
	♥ 9:58am Uncle Michael: Either oar, Schipp.
	10:00am Schnipp: Paranoid schizophrenia just fits in so well with the FMU demographic
	10:03am the fake andy plants: This track though, que bueno
	♥ 10:04am The Oscar: I love that "Fake John Carpenter Score" is now a genre of music.
	♥ 10:07am Hughie Considine: I'm more concerned that "sad clown cover" is now a genre of music.
	10:07am Paul In Bloomfield: William Eggleston the photographer??
	♥ 10:08am Joe McG: @Paul: The very same!
	♥ 10:08am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning Joe and all! Speaking of soundtracks—saw Morricone Youth (and Goblin) last night. Never so happy to see a packed crowd for the opening act.
	10:08am Paul In Bloomfield: wow. how bout that.
	♥ 10:08am The Oscar: (I realize that that may have sounded sarcastic, but I genuinely love it. This includes the fake scores released by Carpenter himself!)
	10:09am Jeff Moore: ...or a rather tough worm in your little inside
	♥ 10:09am The Oscar: Also I can't hear "Titwillow" without thinking of Sam the Eagle.
	♥ 10:09am Uncle Michael: Long live Puddles.
	10:10am Dennis Diken: love Allan Sherman's take on "Tit Willow", aka "The Bronx Bird Watcher"
	♥ 10:10am Joe McG: @Greg: Very sorry to have missed that! :(
	♥ 10:10am Uncle Michael: Dennis, for me that's the original version!
	10:11am Will: Keepin' it ethereal on a misty Monday morn.
	♥ 10:13am MD: Hail!
	10:14am Parq: The Oscar, for me, it's the Alan Sherman lyrics.
	10:14am BronwynB: good morning joe and everyone. i own two versions of tit willow, one by groucho marx and the other by eric idle
	10:14am Parq: Oh hi, Dennis, sorry, didn't see that there.
	10:15am queems: ooooh love this
	10:15am βrian: Camille, Camille, Camille !
	♥ 10:15am Passaic River Blues: The wolves! This is great.
	10:16am Jeff Moore: William Eggleston: Compelling photographer, now we learn guitar guy, and of course maker of those excellent loudspeakers. egglestonworks.com
	10:16am Dennis Diken: Uncle Michael - me too! Parq - good taste!
	10:16am V Priceless: @ Joe - back at ya!
	10:21am Jeff Moore: The accent tréma ¨ (dieresis) can be on an E, I, or U. It is used when two vowels are next to each other and both must be pronounced, e.g., naïve, Saül.
	♥ 10:23am Passaic River Blues: Excellent selection, Joe. The single 45 and 12" versions are both gold.
	10:24am melinda: Always nice to hear Oblivious.
	♥ 10:24am Wendy del Formaggio: Good morning, Joe! I'm glad you're playing this Aztec Camera song. It's been in my head lately, and supposedly if you hear the actual song, it helps chase it from your head. It's also okay if it stays a while longer.
	♥ 10:25am Joe McG: @Wendy: Hope it helps, Wendy!
	10:27am northguineahills: If anyone saw the most recent episode of Mr. Robot, they played a few minutes here and there of Philip Glass's "Einstein on the Beach" (my favorite opera of his).
	♥ 10:28am BennettCap: I love Sandy Posey! A whole set!
	10:28am Paul In Bloomfield: Single File is off to a great start!
	♥ 10:28am Sem Chumbo: Hello, Joe, McGaskoes. Good Day from sunny and +8C Nova Scotia, where gardening continues. (will it never end?)
	♥ 10:30am Joe McG: Good day, Sem!
	♥ 10:30am steveo: all this weekend I had Wichita Lineman stuck in my head and even went listen to Mary Wings Drummer archive with all the cover versions to try and chase it from my head; didn't work immediately, but now it's finally gone.. wow this Pete Drake is SUPER.
	♥ 10:31am The Oscar: Huh-- don't think I've ever heard Pete Drake without the talkbox!
	10:31am Paul In Bloomfield: That Pete Drake was fabulous
	10:31am northguineahills: Thanks steveo, now it's back in my head, and I finally purged it a few days ago.
	♥ 10:32am pantz: "We play both types, Country AND Western."
	♥ 10:32am steveo: :W
	♥ 10:32am steveo: (sorry ngh)
	♥ 10:33am The Oscar: @steveo I went to Denmark shortly after Glen Campbell died, and had Wichita Lineman (specifically the chorus/one-note solo) stuck in my head the ENTIRE flight over. I finally got it out of my head, only to hear a Danish jazz big band cover it at Tivoli Garden!
	10:34am queems: ok what's the catch here guy
	♥ 10:34am pantz: Preach!
	♥ 10:35am MD: STAND TALL! MY BREATHREN!!!
	♥ 10:36am steveo: It's very catchy, apparently. And probably one of the most-played songs around here this year.
	♥ 10:36am MD: ARE YOU LISTENING HARVEY AND KEVIN!?!?
	10:37am djsheilab: Joe! I️ can’t believe you played Love Child. I️ haven’t heard that song in years! It took me back in the very best way. Thanks!
	10:37am northguineahills: I believe it was Trouble that linked the amazing NYT article that had Sachilo Kanenobu in it.
	♥ 10:37am steveo: Turning up The Hollies...
	♥ 10:38am Dominick: Hollies!
	♥ 10:39am Passaic River Blues: @NGH: you're right, that was Trouble. She prepped us for Joe today.
	10:40am BriJet: We love hearing you talk! :)
	♥ 10:40am steveo: yay for B-sides!
	10:43am fletchernyc: What is your bed music??
	♥ 10:46am Joe McG: @fletcher: Kevin Ayers, "Crystal Clear"
	10:51am northguineahills: Gu should get back together and cover "Goo".
	♥ 10:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Weather alert: It's snowing up here now. Please make some Moondog-branded ice scrapers available in the WFMU store. Thanks!
	10:54am Cheri Pi: this is great Joe!
	10:55am northguineahills: What Cheri Pi said! They should take a pic of Moondog w/ a Viking helmet.
	♥ 10:55am Joe McG: @Cheri: She was so sweet and interesting and I'm so happy to bring this to you today!
	10:56am Rich in NC: This is so nice Joe

	11:08am Paul In Bloomfield: This stuff is fantastic!
	11:08am northguineahills: Wow, the last one reminded me of Espers.
	11:11am Brendan: @Joe, i wonder if she knows what ever happened to Nobue Kawana?
	♥ 11:11am steveo: great interview!
	11:13am Paul In Bloomfield: I have to step away from my desk for a minute, but dont want to miss any of this interview!
	♥ 11:14am Joe McG: My pleasure, Ewe Alone and Irene and rw! @Brendan: Good question! I wonder if she knew her?
	11:15am Cheri Pi: Neat, I love translating Japanese

	11:28am melinda: @queems yes!
	11:30am northguineahills: @queems: It's little warm here for my fuzzy sweater, so, I'll be making a bowl of soup for lunch!
	♥ 11:31am Jeff Golick: Great radio. Hi, Joe.
	♥ 11:33am Joe McG: Hey Jeff! Enjoyed your premium this year a lot!
	11:34am Itzall Ablurr: A thousand bucks for "Misora", eh? I'll have to be content with the Youtube listening, that ain't hay. Such a great interview.
	11:35am melinda: These songs are perfect for today.
	11:35am northguineahills: This is so brilliant!, I don't believe I heard her until now (Only read about her). Thanks Joe (in advance)!
