Hiya Joe!

👻

12:11pm Hoboken Jack:

Excited for the Sunshine & the Rain supersession!

12:11pm Peter from Dover NJ:

Checking in from sunny Dover. Always love your show, Joe.

12:11pm JakeGould:

It’s like Joe is a Svengali or something.

12:12pm rw:

Always thought it was weird that the Beatles would make such a direct reference to The Beach Boys

12:13pm Dean:

They played last night in Berkeley.

12:13pm Webhamster Henry:

Technically, the Rutles Covers are on the "Rutles Highway Revisited" album.

12:14pm northguineahills:

YLT only didn't do it when they were on tour as to my recollection...

12:15pm JakeGould:

@Joe: Hey! Today is the last full day of Hanukkah. You can still play with your Dreidel and shit. Last night was the last night.

Us Jews go from darkness to light.

12:15pm coelacanth∅:

rw Paul wrote it in india and played it (on acoustic) for Mike Love and love requested
beach boys" background vocals on it. (so the story goes)

12:16pm coelacanth∅:

(it was supposed to be a sort of spoof on "back in the usa")

12:17pm Spankyflop:

I'm surprised that Mike Love hasn't tried to sue Paul McCartney for a writing credit on that.

12:18pm coelacanth∅:

yeah he still might!

12:21pm dave wuz here:

has matt f taken off his zebra print vest yet?

12:22pm Joe B:

i heard he had to give it back!

12:23pm Carmichael:

Give it back to the zebra?

12:27pm brb:

wow, made my day with shadowy men !!!!

12:28pm Rich in Washington:

I love this whole SMoaSP album!

12:28pm northguineahills:

Well, I guess I'm watching Kids in the Hall (love this band!)

12:28pm Joe B:

they played last night with yo la tengo. incredible set

12:28pm Carmichael:

Love the Shadowy Men. Dim the Lights, Chill the Ham is a great album.

12:28pm Jeff formerly from Rahway:

I had no idea Shadowy Men were still playing until this week. Oh Canada! Saw them in Chicago in the early 90s.

12:29pm JakeGould:

To Reg!

12:29pm brb:

Damn, I was happy with Bill Callahan on Thurs, I would have lost my mind if SMoaSP came out

12:32pm COLINfromvictoriabritishcolumbiacanada:

The Shadowy Men were good friends... didn't know they reformed. Can't imagine them without Reid.

12:34pm Joe B:

dallas good of the sadies was on bass. they have played about 7 or 8 times since 2012 with this lineup

👻

12:41pm tim from champaign:

Great set, Joe! This newish Dream Syndicate is A-OK!

12:41pm prudy:

sounds like an incredibly great set of shows. Wasn't able to catch any of this year's sets. What would we do without YLT to get us through the holidays?

12:42pm cluebucket:

thanks for making me aware shadowy men were there :-)

12:43pm Mick:

I feel like you are gearing up to do an alternate order of YLT Hanukkah shows...

12:46pm Dungaroos Kipawah:

Another breath-taking moment--Sharon Van Etten for this and "Dolphins" on Fri.

12:47pm Phillippe Bastille:

Oooh, hadn't heard this SVE before. Lovely

12:49pm northguineahills:

Wait, besides me, who didn't play w/ YLT during Hanukkah?

12:49pm Greg from ZONE 5:

Yo Joe!
What an awesome week of shows…

12:50pm V Priceless:

heya JB!

12:52pm Phillippe Bastille:

NGH The Beatles

👻

12:53pm tim from champaign:

Sorry, NGH, we told Ira and crew that you'd feel left out but they did not listen.

12:54pm northguineahills:

@tim: :(

12:57pm charbird:

Happy Holidays to everyone, Charlie here from CA!

👻

12:57pm Hoboken Jack:

People's Champ shoots and scores with the Rockin' Mel Stirrup reference!

👻

12:58pm Hoboken Jack:

Don Fleming was in the house as well.

👻

12:58pm Hoboken Jack:

And Hunking.

1:01pm Joe B:

you're right jack. it's starting to get like one of your massive check-in posts! a whole festival's worth of talent in the crowd!

1:04pm COLINfromvictoriabritishcolumbiacanada:

I've been out of touch. I haven't seen Dallas since Reid's funeral in 2001. Miss those guys. Reid would be honoured to have Dallas fill in for him.

1:06pm Slaboch:

I am your Repro-Man! Great seeing you last week Joe!

1:06pm Joe B:

yes same here. awesome job! the repros were out in force friday night!

1:07pm Wild Neil||Peace All:

I think its the 50th anniversary of the White Album.

👻

1:08pm David Shortell:

The last time I saw Shadowy Men was with Girl Trouble at CBGB, in 1993 I think.
It was poorly attended. Probably because everybody was at Brownies to see the A-Bones off before they left for their European tour.

1:12pm COLINfromvictoriabritishcolumbiacanada:

'93 was peak Shadowy Men. Reid was the leader, it was his band and so I wonder what he would think about Brian coming back

👻

1:14pm Hoboken Jack:

I enjoy the quality engineering of your Ace from Exchange Place.

1:15pm northguineahills:

Their name reflects their musical personality, I love it!

1:15pm listener monica:

I'm listening to your show from the comfort of home today and loving it.

1:16pm Your Ace From Exchange Place:

@Hoboken Jack. Impeccable taste you have!

1:18pm Joe B:

david, the two shows at maxwells were also pretty much empty. they didn't care though, still played great

1:24pm Dungaroos Kipawah:

This really reminds me of the Vaselines "Son of a Gun"

1:32pm Mike Sin:

Very much enjoying this Sunshine and the Rain live set!

1:36pm zpulpa:

woow woo woo I love this one! heard it first on Wake!

1:39pm Kelly Jones:

There's like, not a bad cut to be heard! Sunshine and the Rain kinda rule.

1:43pm Tommy in Neversink:

👻

1:48pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Well done, Sunshine and the Rain. Come back again soon.

1:55pm northguineahills:

Thanks SatR!

1:57pm charbird:

More great music from Hoboken! Jack may work one of these tunes into his weekly show?

2:00pm jillydg:

They sure sound good (as does pizza!).

2:01pm Johnzon:

hey can you talk about some out of state restaurants for your non NJ listeners... or... music...

2:02pm rsj:

i was literally just wondering why there was no food discussion

2:12pm Aaron Working In Newark:

Great Show today JB!

2:17pm Stevel:

I've not listened to much of the later-day Buzzcocks. Pretty sure I'll be catching up on that oversight.

2:17pm Krys O.:

What a singular talent Pete was.

2:19pm Jersey Cowboy:

Sure loved this stuff throughout all the formative years.

2:22pm Michael 98145:

Thank you -- sad, but great to hear this set.

2:23pm Krys O.:

FWIW-the ShelleyDevoto album Buzzkunst is quite good.

2:23pm Aaron Working In Newark:

Great Set Joe!!!@!

2:26pm coelacanth∅:

Krys is that from the very beginning?
i didn't know about this.

2:29pm Michael 98145:

wow. never heard of that. thank you so much. www.discogs.com...

2:30pm coelacanth∅:

2:30pm coelacanth∅:

oh there it is Michael beat me there!

2:31pm Michael 98145:

cripes, i love this station ☼

👻

2:32pm tim from champaign:

Joe, I really dig your tributes. You pick out the not so obvious but great cuts.

2:33pm Davis:

strange and good to hear the late and later period buzzcocks-- cool

2:34pm northguineahills:

Been needing all of these Pete Shelley tributes in the last few days....

2:35pm V Priceless:

thanx for that, Joe!

2:36pm V Priceless:

Trade Test Transmission rules!

2:36pm Bill in W.O.:

Good show today, Joe. Especially dug Sunshine and the Rain set and interview. Their new record is certainly one of my favorites this year, thanks for putting me on to them.

2:36pm đ¢ ÞäŦ:

We drove from State College PA to Philly to see the Buzzcocks in about 1990 and it was sold out. That still shocks me.

2:41pm northguineahills:

Hank's Saloon is closing???, that was one of my digs!

2:43pm Joe B:

actually they are relocating, i should have clarified

2:50pm battleaxe:

Going to SolidSound this summa. Anybody got insider info on who will be performing by chance?

Ooh this is QUITE lovely!

2:54pm Paul D:

Hola senors y senoritas.

2:55pm battleaxe:

I think you made a comment in the past about SolidSound that got me interested.

👻

2:57pm David Shortell:

The first time I saw the Buzzcocks was at City Gardens in 1989. Opening up were the Pussy Willows and the Hard-Ons. Quite a pornographic bill!

2:57pm coelacanth∅:

Thanks and praises to Joe, Sunshine, and to Rain

8:58pm TPar:
