(i was out of the room and i backed up my player to listen for it. i wonder if i would've caught that...)

12:05pm Carmichael:

Heya Joe and crew. Shall we rock?

12:05pm Krys O.:

Good afternoon!

12:06pm Rory:

My FMU tee from 2013 is tattered and torn.I get stares. I have freakishly long hair and I don’t give af...

12:07pm Joe B:

greetings all! thanks for tuning in!

12:07pm Chop Scott:

Hey Joe!

12:08pm Roberto:

Dayum, does EFD know about this Donnie Iris cover?

12:09pm Joe B:

Roberto that's who I stole it from!

12:09pm Joe McG:

Love this cover!

12:09pm dave wuz here:

soundtrack of whatever summer it was released

12:09pm Roberto:

But of course.

12:10pm GeorgeSimian:

This is great.

12:10pm Handy Haversack:

Kate and I had to do a little research to figure out why we new this song. Since we were both five the summer it came out!

12:10pm Fiddlesticks:

I like this better than the original and need it in my life on regular rotation.

12:10pm Handy Haversack:

^knew

Sigh.

12:10pm efd:

whoa, I'm glad my noon meeting ended early!

12:10pm efd:

@Roberto clearly you weren't listing to my show a couple of weeks ago! :)

12:10pm Ethyldee Luxe:

Thank God for you DJ Three Chord Monte Joe Belock and alls' youz WFMUzers

12:11pm floating goblin:

oh heck yeah, loving the donnie iris cover

12:11pm efd:

bummed I missed "Sizzlin' Hot," though. Top 10 summer song!

12:12pm efd:

p.s. Joe, you've got a little typo in the in-accu-playlist - Jams, not James!

12:12pm Doctor B.:

Wow! It's been EONS since I've heard Roger C. Reale! Thanks for the spin!

12:13pm Joe B:

it's not the inaccu for nothing! thanks

12:13pm Ethyldee Luxe:

@Carmichael at this point it is going to be pointless to keep up with my sccreen names. XXOO Whooda

12:15pm listener 126464:

Joe I hope you have a fire extinguisher

12:15pm Rory:

Auto shit is your friend:D

12:15pm Roberto:

EFD, I've had an unfortunate habit lately of falling asleep during your slot. If I'm lucky, I wake up in time for the last hour or so.

12:17pm efd:

@Roberto I'm gonna have to start hitting the Social Media Airhorn™ earlier in the show!

12:18pm Ethyldee Luxe:

@Roberto kinda' like an expensive hair style, so comfortable one just drifts off while dangerous sharp objests are whirring just inches from the juglar. Real trust in action.

12:18pm mariano:

Hey Joe B, crew, everyone. That Wyldlife track kicks ass.

12:19pm Handy Haversack:

@efd, maybe do it every mic break?

Hey, Mariano!

12:20pm Woo:

Love hearing the new rock. Gives me hope for the future.

12:20pm Rory:

Oh yeah, I remember hearing the Blackhawks anthem and I just wanted to say there racist and the STL Blues were the last to win the cup and as long there is no nhl season they are and will the last team to win the cup! Go Blues!

12:20pm Carmichael:

Ha Whooda! What's in a name ...

12:20pm Rory:

I’m from STL

12:22pm Mike Sin:

OK, let’s keep this a secret. I’m on a Zoom meeting currently muted with “Three Chord Monte” cranking on the stereo. When I ‘ve gotta jump in the meeting, I hit “mute” on the stereo remote, and jump into the Zoom convo. There’s no doubt I’ll be screwing this up before the end of this meeting! “Excuse me, Mike, did ‘Three Chord Monte’ just join the meeting?”

12:23pm efd:

@Mike, you are living on the EDGE!

12:23pm Roberto:

MOAR AIRHORN

12:23pm mariano:

Whassup Handy! See you lurking up there too David, I hear London's hotter than Ibiza today.

12:24pm Ethyldee Luxe:

@@Mike Sin, we should assume your not wearing any pants?

12:25pm Woo:

Well, this is different.

12:25pm hypothete:

Best Wings cover

12:27pm Ethyldee Luxe:

excuse me, that should read sin pantalones, "DJ Optical Sound Mike Sin"

12:27pm Snoochienucci:

whats better for a lunch break/some iron pumping than the great Joe B in the booth! Rock em Joe ROCK EM!

12:28pm hendrix wolfbat:

Yes! Thank you. Live this mix.

12:28pm hendrix wolfbat:

Love! Doh autocorrect ;p

👻

12:29pm Hackensack Slim:

Sounding Good, Joe. What else is new?

12:30pm coelacanth∅:

it took Billy Paul covering let 'em in for me to understand that song

12:31pm Jett:

Billy Paul, had a lot of great records, One of my favorites is "When Love Is New" A few years later Arthur Prysock did a disco version of it.

12:31pm mariano:

Mike Sin: Can't others see when you've muted your mic? I'm not 100% sure, but I thought that's how it worked.

12:33pm Jett:

Dean Carter is quite awesome. In my view he does the definitive version of "Jailhouse Rock."

12:34pm Woo:

If what she says is true, I love her mom too.

12:34pm Joe B:

@jett - no argument here on jailhouse rock

12:35pm Rory:

I can relate....

12:35pm Handy Haversack:

Exbats! Inez for Prez!

Mariano, I told Stanley that we are reaching melt-the-British temperatures here in NYC.

And I now have to venture out in it for cat litter and fruit. Back ASAP!

12:38pm mariano:

Happy shopping Handy.

12:39pm Handy Haversack:

(We have to get Nature's Miracle, too. We were debating which cats had been marking. Kate said she thought Voltron had done so since quarantine began. "Base calumny!" I got your back, Voltron.)

12:40pm northguineahills:

"Scott The Hoople", Lultz! Actually quite good!. Good to be here live, Joe B!

12:43pm Woo:

T Rex continues to inspire.

12:45pm Farmer Rye in Santa Cruz:

killing it joe. thanks for laying it down. much respect for solidarity with protests and actions all over!!

12:45pm Snoochienucci:

hell yeah. Awesome cover

12:46pm Rory:

Another badass Tobacco Road track

12:46pm Woo:

Yeah Chicks. Bring dynamite.

12:53pm northguineahills:

I actually thought it was T Rex before actually listening listening....

12:53pm courtneynoir:

I think my not ever being able to get into the song Tobacco Road, no matter who does it, stems from first hearing it on David Lee Roth's 'Eat Em And Smile' record when I was like 8 (or whenever it came out)

12:56pm listener 126464:

10% people w/masks on AP boardwalk.

12:57pm northguineahills:

Dead Prez did a bit on "Let's Get Free" on blowing up Tobacco Road.

12:59pm northguineahills:

I was thinking of driving up to Brooklyn to visit my wife, but everything that make NYC enjoyable, is shuttered right now, but I may not have a window to when I'm not employed (new job starts in two weeks) where I can do so.

1:01pm KevinfromBayRidge:

Howdy Belock-Land , where the water's warm, the restaurant's distanced, and the people masked(when needed). I for one, can't take NorthEast water till July.

1:02pm Rich in Bay Ridge:

Kevin - I was just going to dive in from the 69th Street pier for a quickdip. The water's fine.

1:03pm northguineahills:

Outside of Orlando and Gainesville, most people here in FL aren't masking from my experience.

1:03pm Mike Sin:

Yes! Gotta agree regarding the shore. The beach itself is cool -- most groups are distanced and you can "control" a bit more. The boardwalk and getting around town... a bit much. I know folks are weary and frustrated, but just because we are outside, there still should be a certain amount of "distance respect" for your fellow ho-dad. NY and NJ's low numbers look impressive, but that should have been the nationwide stat. The large variation among the states could have easily been avoided if we had a shred of leadership, strategy, and mission from the federal level.

1:03pm northguineahills:

ahh, I hear the ladybug transistor connection

1:04pm Rory:

ngh - Same here, it’s like what happened? Stay safe everyone!

1:05pm Rich in Bay Ridge:

One of the things keeping people from going into the water at the beach is the turning off of the showers. Who wants to go home all sandy?

1:06pm ami ad:

Hello D.J. Hello all. Rock the boat.

1:06pm Joe B:

@rich - i don't mind - it's like a free souvenir of my fun trip to the beach

1:07pm Rich in Bay Ridge:

@joe - I enjoy souvenirs but not necessarily where I find them after beachin'

👻

1:10pm David Shortell:

NJ's The Graveyard School has their own song entitled "Tobacco Road".

www.bandmine.com...

1:10pm northguineahills:

@Mike: and they have deliberating making it impossible for hospitals to report the true casualty numbers here. Any other affliction + Covid-19, the other affliction gets the cause of death).

1:11pm northguineahills:

(here being FL).

1:11pm KevinfromBayRidge:

@ Rich(1:02) That must've been a quick one. Hopefully no long-term biological effects!

1:11pm Michele with One "L":

Like this track!

1:18pm Woo:

Joe, I got a steno pad going. It's gregg ruled with green tint paper, minimum 30 percent post-consumer waste, 80 sheets.

1:19pm Joe B:

same! that's the one

1:21pm coelacanth∅:

Jack's been listening to the replacements

1:27pm coelacanth∅:

heh -and i was holding back from saying who Tyler sounds like, figured it's more than a little obvious; and just noticed the album name!
...so it's a tribute!

1:28pm John L:

The Faces would segue nicely.

1:31pm Dungaroos Kipawah:

Just picked up new Swamp Dogg record, loving it.

1:31pm Roberto:

That reminds me, gotta toss some coin Swamp's way and pick this sucker up.

1:34pm Eric from Lake Hiawatha:

SWAY!!!

Fantastic cover. Made me stop and listen!
Way thanks

1:35pm GeorgeSimian:

Nice set!

1:36pm yes:

Joe, have you had a chance to relisten to Colorado lately? Wondering if you came around with that one

1:38pm Alvy Singer:

Joe, Now we need Neil to put out the original Chrome Dreams. Homegrown is perfectly sequenced.

1:38pm coelacanth∅:

yes good sway version. in my top 5 'stones songs list, i assume -if i had one

1:39pm P-90:

It WAS mixed “a little weirdly”

1:42pm Sean B.:

Been hearing alot about swamp dogg. Finally got a chance to hear him. Reminded me a tad of Leon Russell. Good stuff @JoeB.

1:42pm Handy Haversack:

Back! Blast some grocery-putting-away tunes, Joe!

1:43pm Rob W:

Thanks Joe for the scene report re: Tunes record shop in Hoboken! Sounds like they are being very responsible - that's great. I've found lots of good stuff there in the past and will stop by soon. I've been suffering serious record shopping withdrawal symptoms!

1:45pm Tim from LH:

Show sounding great today Joe, digging what I’ve heard of the new Neil!

1:48pm Sweet Corn Lizzie:

hi folks. please play some file editing tunes. thx

1:50pm coelacanth∅:

hi Lizzie
...hey Joe do have any file editing/installing curtain hooks music?

1:55pm Jim the Poet:

I don't know my pain

1:57pm Joe B:

i'm here to add to it Jim

2:00pm Michele with One "L":

Love this Drab City album!

2:02pm common:

Dig the keys

2:02pm mariano:

Yeah Michele, everything I've heard from them so far on FMU has hit all the sweet spots for me.

2:02pm Handy Haversack:

Joe, I'd like to request "It Started on the Dragon Coaster" by a new young band called Juniper.

2:06pm David in London:

The Budos Band never fail to get you up and grooving.

Hey Mariano.

2:09pm Joe B:

agreed david!

2:09pm Joe B:

Handy i think it's too late - i shouldnt have tipped my hand in mcgasko's comments section

2:13pm Handy Haversack:

Ah, well, Joe. One day I will experience the thrill!

2:13pm David in London:

Joe, I saw them live here in London last summer, and don’t think I stopped dancing for a minute. As an, ahem, more mature gentleman, I was absolutely bloody knackered afterwards.

2:14pm Joe B:

they were one of the last shows i saw before the lockdown

2:15pm Andrew_in_WI:

I still like cassettes too.

2:15pm Andrew_in_WI:

@Joe McG Ever do a cassingle file?

2:18pm Handy Haversack:

It's halberd training for you, too, David!

2:19pm Joe B:

@andrew - ha great one!

2:21pm David in London:

Handy, training alongside bears many years my junior will be tough. But I won’t ask my troops to do something I won’t do myself...

2:21pm coelacanth∅:

i always liked cassettes, still do. i always hated cassingles, still do!

2:27pm Kenny rotten:

Hi Joe, thanks for the Brother JT!!

2:30pm Joe McG:

@Andrew: Never did...and couldn't! The only cassingle I ever owned was the Rolling Stones' "Mixed Emotions." After that, I never bought another one.

2:31pm Andrew_in_WI:

Haha. It is easily the stupidest format.

2:34pm Handy Haversack:

WFMU doesn't have a cassingles new bin?

2:37pm egould310:

It’s like Gun Club, but the singer is actually in tune.

2:38pm Alvy Singer:

The stupidest format was the mini CD, or the CD 3 as it was sometimes called.

2:39pm coelacanth∅:

it just seems so wasteful, cassingles. a lot more goes into making a cassette than a record. then the space it takes -for 2 songs or maybe even just one. a 45 takes less space.

2:40pm coelacanth∅:

(but then i get annoyed when a cd only has 20 minutes on it -because of the wastefulness)

2:40pm Chop Scott:

Killer show Joe! Cheers!!

2:41pm Rich in Bay Ridge:

And you were only going to copy that cassingle onto a compilation cassette of all your other cassingles, because that 1983 Ford Escort didn't have a lot of room for all those cassettes.

2:42pm coelacanth∅:

Alvy i've yet to see a player that can play those!

2:43pm efd:

following in the footsteps of The dB's with apostrophe misuse.

2:46pm Steve Harsh:

Great show Joe - many thanks!!!

2:48pm coelacanth∅:

Rich yes i just tacked the few i had/have (Liz Phair,mistake i thought was the album; Dollar Brand, 25¢ ...)at the end of short albums that i'd dubbed to cassette; those cassingles never to be played again.

2:48pm dave wuz here:

aw man- whats the deal w the sabbath shirts re- blm $? i ordered 2 this am. yeash.

2:48pm Handy Haversack:

And stay hydrated! The march we were at on Sunday had water bottles and snacks to pass out. And then one of the food trucks, run by a couple of Sikh fellows, in the park where we ended donated dozens of meals to the marchers. It was so touching.

And say their names!

👻

2:48pm Hughie Considine:

Thanks, Joe. Powerful stuff.

2:48pm Joe B:

dave - many links to the sabbath shirt are correct

2:48pm Joe B:

just check before ordering

2:49pm Joe B:

sabbath's official site has the correct link

2:49pm Gaylord Fields:

Seeing Janelle Monáe's name on any project is the ultimate mark of quality. Thanks for playing this, Joe!

2:49pm Joe B:

www.buzzfeednews.com...

2:49pm Spankyflop:

David Byrne did this when I saw him in Philly. It was powerful.

2:50pm Handy Haversack:

This track is so good. Overpowering me. Thanks, Joe. Thanks for all.

Thanks, Skelechele.

2:50pm Stillwell Coney Islander:

Thanks Joe B! ❤️

2:52pm Choggie:

"His name was Robert Paulson."-Tyler Durden

2:52pm ?:

Thank you so much

👻

2:54pm Hughie Considine:

And sadly...that list is still being updated.

2:55pm formerly known as the soundguy at the Court Tav:

nice segue, Joe!

2:55pm listener 126464:

Thanks Joe and FMU crew.

2:56pm Yes:

2:57pm coelacanth∅:

2:57pm Curt:

Great show, thanks Joe!

2:57pm John from Madison:

Thank you Joe and crew, take care everyone!

👻

3:00pm Frank In Queens:
