In between playing 2-minute songs tonight, I'll try to thank a few more people.
	9:03pm spodiodi: greetings, Ira and Irationalists
	9:03pm BH: I choose to believe that Ira is always singing over his intro/outro songs live and that it's not prerecorded
	9:03pm spodiodi: agrees w BH
	9:04pm Ira: @BH: The "magic" of radio.
	9:05pm Ira: Thanks also to Salvatore in Pittsboro, NC and Y Mae in Brooklyn . . .
	9:07pm Ira: . . . and Tom in St. Paul and Timothy in SF . . .
	9:08pm AS from MP: gosh, I saw Willie Alexander and the Boom Boom Band at the Rutgers Student Center circa 1978
	9:09pm Michael Shore: I have to be the 1001st to say this (at least) but -- best ___ the K dj since Murray
	9:10pm Ira: @Michael Shore: (spoiler alert) One of those coming up later in the show.
	9:11pm Michael Shore: 'k!
	9:15pm Vince from Pearl: Ira, It's a treat to tune in.
	9:15pm Yvang: This sounds like an early VU song.
	9:19pm Ken From Hyde Park: Inspiratory music for these times!
	9:20pm Cp304: hellloooooooo (Seinfeld voice)
	9:22pm Ira: Cp304! (Newman voice)
	9:22pm Cp304: lol
	9:22pm Michael Shore: @Cp304 that sounds more like Uncle Leo
	9:22pm spodiodi: i heard this one first on Todd-o-Phonic Todd's show. nice one
	9:22pm spodiodi: (at least that's what my memory reported)
	9:23pm Ira: 3 more thanks to the Bay Area: William in Oakland, Rich in SF, and Thomas in SF.
	9:23pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @spodiodi: I broke "The Lone Twister" in the New York metro area.
	9:24pm spodiodi: cheers, Todd! :D
	9:24pm Ira: @spodiodi: I first heard "The Lone Twister" SUNG by T-o-p Todd, as part of Vince Brnicevic's Air Force.
	9:24pm Cp304: haha spodiodi, I forgot about the uncle leo helllooo.. i had to YT
	9:25pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Ira: I think you need to put SUNG in quotes.
	9:26pm Ira: @Todd: I would've put it in a bigger point size, if only I knew how.
	9:26pm Michael Shore: Link Cromwell: best "No Jestering" cover this side of Augustus Pablo's "Pablo Nuh Jester" which is high (and I do mean high) praise from me.
	9:27pm spodiodi: Todd, I was about to call myself a liar when Advanced PLaylist search turned up no clear hit corroborating my volatile memory, and was about to guess/correct "must have been Joe B's show or Spazz's"... so, I'm glad you chimed in :D
	9:28pm spodiodi: and Ira -- you guys are far more qualified to confirm or deny my memory than i am when it comes to stuff i've heard, particularly on the FMU!
	9:28pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @spodiodi: Could have been pre playlist days, not sure when that started.
	9:29pm spodiodi: but yeah, The Lone Twister gets me going!!! thank you both
	9:35pm spodiodi: just read the vocals are by Murray The K -- Ira The K... the power of The K in full effect up in here
	9:37pm Ira: Moving our thanks to our spiritual home of NJ: thanks to Joe in Montclair, Pamela & David in Montclair, and Roberta in Morris Plains for your pledges!
	9:40pm wendy del formaggio: Mickey Katz! Hooray!
	9:40pm leshwatt: How can we NOT pledge to WFMU? Duh!
	9:42pm Jedley: Yeah I gave again to move the bar for some more shows. It's satisfying to see it move!
	9:44pm spodiodi: Hooray for K!
	9:47pm Michael Shore: ALSO JELLY ROLL MORTON'S BIRTHDAY WHICH CALLS FOR A SUN RA RENDITION OF "KING PORTER STOMP"!
	9:48pm Ira: Sorry, Michael, I don't have it on 7"!
	9:52pm Michael Shore: rules, like records, are made to be broken...but I'm hoping for maybe at least a Ra/Yochannon 45 tonight...not that the show isn't awesome enough already of course.
	9:54pm coelacanth∅: greetings Ira and others
	9:54pm spodiodi: haha. never heard this. nice :)
	9:54pm leshwatt: Anyone heard of Ronald Koal and the Trillionaires? Man I wish I still had my old 45’s.
	9:54pm spodiodi: yohoho, coelacanth∅
	9:55pm coelacanth∅: i remember this from dr.demento
	9:55pm coelacanth∅: heyyy spodi
	9:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Are we supposed to call the station and recite the hourly ID now?
	9:57pm Stevel: Damn, Wednesday morning comes early.
	9:58pm Ira: @Ken From Hyde Park: It's only 9:58! Hang tight.
	9:59pm coelacanth∅: i knew the ymg track before Ken used it but i still always think of that. brainwashing.
	10:01pm Michael Shore: Il Move-o
	10:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: The Move must have achieved a modicum of popularity in Italy judging by the cover versions of their songs there.
	10:04pm Ira: Playing the whole Todd-o-phonic Todd repertoire tonight!
	10:05pm Gaylord Fields: @Todd-o-phonic Todd: Have you got Little Pupa's Italian version of "Night of Fear"?
	10:05pm leshwatt: Ragged glory
	10:05pm Ira: Although to be accurate (and I was typing this comment before he piped up on the message board), this was a duet w/Gaylord Fields.
	10:05pm Gaylord Fields: Nice save, Ira.
	10:06pm farmer john∅: you got 5 seconds i'ma start shootin'
	10:07pm Hackensack Slim: Todd@9:25, I recall you twisting on a bar stool to the "Lone Twister" at a Hangover Hop many moons ago.
	10:09pm TK: Tom Petty!!!
	10:12pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Hackensack Slim: For obvious reasons I don't remember that!
	10:13pm coelacanth∅: one of my favorite Tom Petty songs is also a b-side ('gators on the lawn)
	10:14pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Gaylord Fields: I bought that Little Pupa record after hearing you play it!
	10:14pm coelacanth∅: georgia slop a great track. it's on the dancing at the nick at nightclub album
	10:15pm Gaylord Fields: Todd, I'm glad you got a copy — it's molto bene!
	10:17pm Ira: I clearly should have been listening to that installment of the Gaylord Fields program!
	10:17pm sufferwords: CSUN- Vallance - ah man
	10:20pm Gaylord Fields: Ira, my show is pretty well established as the place to hear the very best in Move covers in Italian, a la Scott Muni's Things From England segment.
	10:21pm Gaylord Fields: Did he say "the baked Bahamas"? He didn't know the half of it!
	10:23pm There is no greater hug: Lo Fai!
	10:25pm Joe B: @Todd - playlist started in 2000 though holdouts like me and Gaylord lasted into the next year or so
	10:26pm Tamar: I am hearting this whole set.
	10:27pm mariano: Hey Ira, Crew, folks! I see we have quite a distinguished audience here tonight. I'm also glad to see some FMU DJs here (waka waka).
	10:27pm Somm Ben: I second Tamar's sentiment.
	10:27pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Joe B: I was but a lowly fill-in DJ at that time but I think I came around to it late myself.
	10:28pm There is no greater hug: Lo fai? Lo fai? vuoi il mio amore?
	10:29pm Gaylord Fields: @Joe B: I held out on doing regular playlists for years after they were first implemented.
	10:29pm Joe B: and when I say holdouts, it was because I didn't know how to do it! I used to type it in and email it to efd. shockingly, he still talks to me!
	10:30pm Joe B: @gaylord - oh yeah, that's right. maybe for that first year, I was thinking of archiving shows?
	10:31pm Joe B: hey mariano!
	10:32pm Pidge: $498 gets IRA to his goal. Pledge now IraNauts! pledge.wfmu.org...
	10:32pm tullius: this show is bringing back memories of resting awake late at night listening to some detroit radio station on a hand wound homemade radio, which you could not pick up on store bought radios. Tiger games followed by Dr. Demento...
	10:33pm Joe B: hey clay!
	10:34pm Ira: Thanking some people with different colored passports: Alex in Delta, BC and Javier in Berlin. Danke!
	10:35pm Joe B: Los Microwaves with a belated answer song to The Bootles?
	10:35pm Clay Pigeon: Joe B! Todd! The gang's all here! I gotta run and get back to work. Keep pledging!
	10:36pm Ira: Really glad to have you here, Clay Pigeon, but . . . get some rest!!!
	10:37pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: THE PIDGE!!!
	10:37pm Joe B: I miss when baseball had room for guys like Ken Boswell - couldn't hit, had no power, had no speed ... but lasted 11 seasons in the majors
	10:37pm Clay Pigeon: Sounding GREAT Ira. Everyone is so psyched to have you on the schedule. Look at that! You whittled it down $318 and falling like a rock. pledge.wfmu.org...
	10:38pm Clay Pigeon: I miss Vida Blue, Joe B!
	10:39pm patrick321: @Gaylord I think you nailed it with "Move covers in Italian" but any mention of Scottso's Friday hour (or half hour?) brings back all my deep frustration with 70s radio
	10:39pm Joe B: me too. Vida is apparently a really cool person as well as being a legendary player
	10:39pm Cp304: woot woot Clay in the house!
	10:39pm Somm Ben: Thank you, WFMU DJs! This set and comment board are jammin'
	10:41pm Jason from Houston: ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱
	10:41pm Gaylord Fields: @patrick321: Next time I mention Scottso, it will be with the state mandated trigger warning.
	10:41pm mariano: Hey Joe B!
	10:42pm Joe B: I base my favorite Philly cheesesteak by which place has the most Orlons photos displayed on the walls. currently the leader is Jim's on South Street
	10:43pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Joe B: But what about the Oscar's Tavern one and a half cheesesteaks for the price of one happy hour special!
	10:43pm Joe B: oh yeah, forgot. to hell with jim's!
	10:43pm dug: nice to see so many off duty DJs in the comments. big thanks to all who keep wfmu going.
	10:43pm patrick321: Wow, Donna Esposito twice in one week? Only on WFMU ladies and gentlemen.
	10:44pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	10:44pm Ira: @patrick321: You said it! Scott Muni made me crazy, and not the good crazy. And after the fact, want to send "Heartbreak Hotel" out to our friend Naomi, in addition to Will Rigby. Mi scusi!
	10:47pm Joe B: @Todd - just don't tell the Orlons fanclub president!
	10:47pm Cp304: <- drains spit valve and tries
	10:47pm There is no greater hug: This is a hep huggers dream
	10:48pm egould310: They call themselves Trombones Unlimited, but it really sounds like only three trombones. With a name like Trombones Unlimited, I want at least 55 trombones.
	10:49pm Ira: I was thinking something similar, but more in a glass-half-full way, how great that name was, for a variety of reasons, including how inappropriate it is, and what an odd thing to brag about.
	10:50pm Joe B: nice job by McGuinn keeping this off the Turn Turn Turn album in favor of .. Oh Susannah
	10:50pm Cp304: is it just me or waiting for A time to be born, a time to die A time to plant, a time to reap A time to kill, a time to heal A time to laugh, a time to weep
	10:50pm Gaylord Fields: @patrick321 @Ira: So then do you think that Scott Muni's other job as the voiceover announcer on those "How do you spell relief?" Rolaids ads was some kind of personal penance for being a prime source of nausea?
	10:51pm Clay Pigeon: I love T.U.! Is Phil Bodner involved? Or was he The Brass Ring. May have been a spin-off, like Michael Flatley's Lord of the Dance. Darting in and out here.
	10:51pm Gaylord Fields: Margot Olavarra!!!
	10:51pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	10:51pm spodiodi: choice tune
	10:52pm Clay Pigeon: Lords*
	10:52pm Ira: @Gaylord: I suspect like a lot of performers, Scott Muni divided his time between his work gig (WFMU) and personal gigs (Rolaids).
	10:53pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: I am always going to be thankful to Scott Muni for introducing me to Slade on Things From England.
	10:53pm patrick321: @Gaylord I'm not sure I knew he was the voice of Rolaids but he probably couldn't do sufficient penance for me.
	10:53pm Ira: Of course, Todd. That's how I feel about John Miles.
	10:53pm mariano: I think I've always known somehow you were John Lydon, spodi.
	10:54pm herb.nyc: Will Rigby! I saw Steve Earle at public theater lobby last summer. I asked him about will and he told me of him marrying a NC prof and being a daddy. Aww. (This took place at a public theater buffet and he had cookie crumbs in his beard)
	10:55pm Joe B: too bad they didn't stick with how much more as the b-side for the IRS version of we got the beat
	10:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Joe B: Agree. That Stiff version of "How Much More" always gets things going when I play it out.
	10:58pm patrick321: @Todd I first heard Slade in a high school friend's car. In the early 70s we were starving for it in rural NJ.
	10:59pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Ira: In the Creem documentary there is a photo of Lester Bangs wearing a John Miles T-shirt. Must have been laundry day for Lester.
	11:00pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @patrick321: To me Quiet Riot's success with their inferior version of "Cum On Feel The Noise" just proves that Slade could have made it here had they gotten any airplay outside of Things From England.
	11:01pm Gaylord Fields: [click]
	11:01pm Joe B: yeah!!!!!!!!!
	11:01pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: I'm just going to pretend I thought he show ended at 11.
	11:02pm Matt Fiveash: Huzzah
	11:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: "the show". The "t" on my keyboard doesn't work so well.
	11:02pm Gaylord Fields: @Todd-o-phonic Todd: But it did, Todd, it did.
	11:03pm Joe B: quiet riot might easily have my most disliked singer of all time, with the guy from the strokes second, or at least in the top 5
	11:03pm Ira: A one-woman squatter!
	11:03pm Georgia: Oh it’s almost over.. I think!
	11:03pm Gaylord Fields: Outro all ad-libbed — you'd never guess!
	11:04pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Gaylord has squatter's rights.
	11:06pm Gaylord Fields: Oh, Georgia! You have the power to end it anytime you wish.
	11:07pm Matt Fiveash: Quiet Riot's shitty cover was my first exposure to Slade, closely followed by Slade's "Run Runaway" from the same era, both via videos on the short-lived Boston UHF music video channel "V66".
	11:07pm Chop Scott: This evenings entertainment just keeps on delivering--Cheers All!
	11:07pm krampus: This is krampus
	11:08pm James: There’s my Great Gaylord.
	11:09pm Gaylord Fields: Aw, James!
	11:09pm Georgia: Great Gaylord, never!
	11:10pm Gaylord Fields: Aw, Georgia, I've made my peace with the record. And it only took me about 30 years.
	11:12pm mariano: One of my favorite Kinks songs!
	11:12pm spodiodi: aloha mariano! was on KP. he's flawed like me, but unlike me (and two other pics on my profile atm), he has blue eyes and blonde hair &8^) my profile is more misleading than ever before. thanks for noticing/mentioning :) Kamala also with a K/ VP The K ftw!
	11:12pm Jedley: Over 25% of the total votes for 2016 have already been cast 2 weeks in advance.
	11:12pm Ira: Gaylord, this is a 100% unironic show. I LOVE Squat With Me Baby!
	11:12pm Georgia: @mariano mine too!
	11:13pm Ira: @Georgia and mariano: And it's the B-side!
	11:14pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, Ira. I can admit there's a lot to love about it.
	11:14pm Rick G: Jeebus, went and spaced out over two hours of appointment radio! Happy to be here, if briefly.
	11:15pm Ike: And if you're in NY, please vote for Biden/Harris on the Working Families Party line, because NY has bizarro "fusion voting" where you can vote for the candidate on any line where they appear and it'll count just as much. Also WFP needs the votes to continue to exist and keep pissing off Quid Pro Cuomo from the left.
	11:15pm spodiodi: i can't stop thinking about the time i challenged VP Harris at the BART station, and she rolled her eyes at me (i blabbed something about having dated Willie Brown -- this was years ago)... was she running for DA or Mayor then? I forget, but boy do i feel sillier than ever thinking about it now. WIN WIN WIN Kamala Harris!
	11:15pm Honeybear: @Ike for president!
	11:16pm spodiodi: the old pickle platform is real
	11:16pm spodiodi: cucumber* platform (hi Ike!)
	11:17pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	11:18pm Hoboken Jack: Hello Ira, Georgia, James (!), Skeleton, TOPT, Joe, Gaylord, Clay (get to sleep, man!!), Matt F, HP Ken, SteveL, future time travelers and present time squatters.
	11:19pm Jason from Houston: OH DANG
	11:19pm TomDash: Popping in to make sure I don't have too-too much overlap. Happy to report, I pulled the OTHER Los Mircrowaves 45...all good
	11:19pm spodiodi: aloha, Hoboken Jack
	11:20pm Honeybear: Went down an SLA rabbit hole the other day (in terms of late nite "reading") so this track is very timely for me
	11:22pm Richy4619: ddamn spodiodi, which BART station? that's what's up Ike! allo errybody. Ira!
	11:22pm Honeybear: It was good to finally catch up on the history of People's Park at least. I knew something bad happened there - but the details really are quite shocking (even for that era)
	11:22pm Ira: @TomDash: phew.
	11:22pm Ike: @Honeybear, nah, when I warned y'all about the military-industrial complex, that was it for me. The deep state will never let me back in now. Also I keep shaking babies and kissing hands instead of shaking hands and kissing babies.
	11:23pm Richy4619: lookin fwd >>> @TomDash
	11:23pm Honeybear: More like something you'd expect to happen in Soviet bloc country (or their various, often worse counterparts the US supported at the time)
	11:25pm Joe B: oh yeah!
	11:25pm Kat in Chicago: thumbs up
	11:25pm Honeybear: @Ike - so true - definitely would have been no bayoneted babies piled up in ditches on your watch
	11:25pm TK: uh huh. secrets to reveal.
	11:25pm Gaylord Fields: I just found my copy of the "Magnet and Steel" 45 yesterday while searching for singles — thanks for completing the scenario.
	11:27pm Joe B: my pick for best use of toy piano in a top 10 song
	11:27pm egould310: Magnet & Steel. This is metaphor, isn’t it?
	11:27pm Joe B: or broken glockenspiel if that is what that is
	11:28pm Gaylord Fields: @Joe B: Beats out "Summer Breeze."
	11:28pm Joe B: ah, forgot about that one!
	11:31pm Ira: Before you turn off the radio in disgust, I edited side A and B together. Singles roll steadily on!
	11:33pm Clay Pigeon: Magnet and Steel ... nice! Produced by Lindsay Buckingham! $245 and plummeting! pledge.wfmu.org...
	11:33pm absmiami: and thats the magic of radio, right ?
	11:34pm Kat in Chicago: the internet confirms toy piano, Joe B. also "Singles Going Nowhere" was super fun listening yesterday. GO TO SLEEP, CLAY.
	11:34pm Joe B: thanks Kat. and thanks Kat!
	11:35pm Jedley: www.twitch.tv... for those who like multi-tasking
	11:37pm Joe B: has anyone recorded a song about Patty Smyth?
	11:39pm Ira: Here we go!
	11:40pm Georgia: Ira said scrumptious over the air. I better bring him another beer.
	11:40pm Richy4619: Who you pullin for, Ira?
	11:41pm Clay Pigeon: @Joe B - Just read she was asked to join Van Halen at one point. Turned them down. She also said she received a lot of fanmail for Patti Smith. Go RAYS!
	11:41pm Georgia: End tables!
	11:41pm Ira: Thanks also to Jeffrey in Kensington MD, Zachary in Rockford IL, Karl in Hillsdale NJ, and Peter in NY NY.
	11:42pm Jason from Houston: ꒰ ｡ ‿ ｡꒱
	11:42pm Ira: @Richy4619: Don't know how tonight's game went (hands full), but pulling for the Rays. Quietly. I've watched almost nothing of the post-season.
	11:42pm Joe B: @Clay - I never knew that. also read that EVH wanted to work with Daryl Hall at one point!
	11:44pm mariano: Love this End Tables.
	11:44pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	11:44pm Joe B: I thought both LCS's were great
	11:45pm Chop Scott: I recollect that Patty Smyth married John McEnroe.
	11:46pm Georgia: Joe B, I read that as EFD wanted to work for Daryl Hall!
	11:46pm Clay Pigeon: Yes Chopper! @JoeB He tried to join KISS, too.
	11:48pm Krull Sagan: Patty Smyth is The Warrior! (No?)
	11:48pm Kat in Chicago: (Yes!)
	11:49pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Who wanted to join Kiss? EFD or John McEnroe?
	11:49pm Joe B: @George - that too! though EFD would be lower case as per his playlists!
	11:49pm Clay Pigeon: Georgia tried to join KISS.
	11:49pm Ira: Who DIDN'T want to join Kiss?
	11:49pm matty from brooklyn: IRA! I'm so excited I'm hearing you. We're in the boondocks of the Catskills, and been dying for some WFMU. It's taken a lot of finagling, but here you are! Love your show, love FMU! So happy to be hearing you!
	11:49pm Krull Sagan: (Kat would know!)
	11:50pm Ira: Thanks, matty!!
	11:50pm Joe B: obv should read ... @Georgia
	11:50pm Matt Fiveash: Todd: Both?
	11:50pm There is no greater hug: Hey Clay. I have missed you. Maybe they could do a best of in the PM, and take the best two 1/2 hours from the AM show.
	11:51pm Joe B: Who DIDN'T want to join Kiss? these days? Peter Criss!
	11:52pm Honeybear: Not the same! The beauty and power of Wake comes from the fact that it's a morning show
	11:53pm There is no greater hug: Bruce Kulick played on Coney Island Baby. That's the only Kiss knowledge I have and I got it just tonight.
	11:53pm Clay Pigeon: Thanks Hug! I'm already over-saturated in the market (recent Arbitron's™ indicate). Del stinking Vikings! Gotta go. Sound GREAT IRa. Keep pledging everybody! pledge.wfmu.org... Kulick is in Grand Funk now, right? Mark, Don, and Bruce.
	11:54pm patrick321: Thanks Ira, for a fun show (including the Mets memories), and everyone on the board for the running sideshow. Really enjoyed it.
	11:55pm Honeybear: Always a pleasure, Ira
	11:55pm Ira: Thank you to one and all for listening, for commenting if you commented, for pledging if you pledged. Keep supporting this great radio station, any way you can.
	11:55pm Matt Fiveash: What would McEnroe's KISS makeup be? I picture a Chuck E Cheese-ish rodent motif
	11:56pm Joe B: thanks Ira, great show!
	11:56pm KWilde: Thanks Ira!
	11:56pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: So long to an amazing show!
	11:56pm Jedley: Pledge! Even $5 or 10! Click up top! Make it happen! Get a pumpkin!

	11:57pm Gaylord Fields: This has been so good! Thanks, Ira!

Listener comments!
	9:01pm Ira: Thanks to Paul in Chichester, NY (didn't know there IS a Chichester, NY!) and Patrick in Philadelphia (that one I've heard of) and M.A. in Indianapolis (member of Dow Jones & the Industrials??) and Cal in Dothan, AL and Brian in Cedar Falls, IA and Chris in NY, NY and Gary in Queens for pledging to WFMU and this show. In between playing 2-minute songs tonight, I'll try to thank a few more people.
	9:03pm spodiodi: greetings, Ira and Irationalists
	9:03pm BH: I choose to believe that Ira is always singing over his intro/outro songs live and that it's not prerecorded
	9:03pm spodiodi: agrees w BH
	9:04pm Ira: @BH: The "magic" of radio.
	9:05pm Ira: Thanks also to Salvatore in Pittsboro, NC and Y Mae in Brooklyn . . .
	9:07pm Ira: . . . and Tom in St. Paul and Timothy in SF . . .
	9:08pm AS from MP: gosh, I saw Willie Alexander and the Boom Boom Band at the Rutgers Student Center circa 1978
	9:09pm Michael Shore: I have to be the 1001st to say this (at least) but -- best ___ the K dj since Murray
	9:10pm Ira: @Michael Shore: (spoiler alert) One of those coming up later in the show.
	9:11pm Michael Shore: 'k!
	9:15pm Vince from Pearl: Ira, It's a treat to tune in.
	9:15pm Yvang: This sounds like an early VU song.
	9:19pm Ken From Hyde Park: Inspiratory music for these times!
	9:20pm Cp304: hellloooooooo (Seinfeld voice)
	9:22pm Ira: Cp304! (Newman voice)
	9:22pm Cp304: lol
	9:22pm Michael Shore: @Cp304 that sounds more like Uncle Leo
	9:22pm spodiodi: i heard this one first on Todd-o-Phonic Todd's show. nice one
	9:22pm spodiodi: (at least that's what my memory reported)
	9:23pm Ira: 3 more thanks to the Bay Area: William in Oakland, Rich in SF, and Thomas in SF.
	9:23pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @spodiodi: I broke "The Lone Twister" in the New York metro area.
	9:24pm spodiodi: cheers, Todd! :D
	9:24pm Ira: @spodiodi: I first heard "The Lone Twister" SUNG by T-o-p Todd, as part of Vince Brnicevic's Air Force.
	9:24pm Cp304: haha spodiodi, I forgot about the uncle leo helllooo.. i had to YT
	9:25pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Ira: I think you need to put SUNG in quotes.
	9:26pm Ira: @Todd: I would've put it in a bigger point size, if only I knew how.
	9:26pm Michael Shore: Link Cromwell: best "No Jestering" cover this side of Augustus Pablo's "Pablo Nuh Jester" which is high (and I do mean high) praise from me.
	9:27pm spodiodi: Todd, I was about to call myself a liar when Advanced PLaylist search turned up no clear hit corroborating my volatile memory, and was about to guess/correct "must have been Joe B's show or Spazz's"... so, I'm glad you chimed in :D
	9:28pm spodiodi: and Ira -- you guys are far more qualified to confirm or deny my memory than i am when it comes to stuff i've heard, particularly on the FMU!
	9:28pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @spodiodi: Could have been pre playlist days, not sure when that started.
	9:29pm spodiodi: but yeah, The Lone Twister gets me going!!! thank you both
	9:35pm spodiodi: just read the vocals are by Murray The K -- Ira The K... the power of The K in full effect up in here
	9:37pm Ira: Moving our thanks to our spiritual home of NJ: thanks to Joe in Montclair, Pamela & David in Montclair, and Roberta in Morris Plains for your pledges!
	9:40pm wendy del formaggio: Mickey Katz! Hooray!
	9:40pm leshwatt: How can we NOT pledge to WFMU? Duh!
	9:42pm Jedley: Yeah I gave again to move the bar for some more shows. It's satisfying to see it move!
	9:44pm spodiodi: Hooray for K!
	9:47pm Michael Shore: ALSO JELLY ROLL MORTON'S BIRTHDAY WHICH CALLS FOR A SUN RA RENDITION OF "KING PORTER STOMP"!
	9:48pm Ira: Sorry, Michael, I don't have it on 7"!
	9:52pm Michael Shore: rules, like records, are made to be broken...but I'm hoping for maybe at least a Ra/Yochannon 45 tonight...not that the show isn't awesome enough already of course.
	9:54pm coelacanth∅: greetings Ira and others
	9:54pm spodiodi: haha. never heard this. nice :)
	9:54pm leshwatt: Anyone heard of Ronald Koal and the Trillionaires? Man I wish I still had my old 45’s.
	9:54pm spodiodi: yohoho, coelacanth∅
	9:55pm coelacanth∅: i remember this from dr.demento
	9:55pm coelacanth∅: heyyy spodi
	9:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Are we supposed to call the station and recite the hourly ID now?
	9:57pm Stevel: Damn, Wednesday morning comes early.
	9:58pm Ira: @Ken From Hyde Park: It's only 9:58! Hang tight.
	9:59pm coelacanth∅: i knew the ymg track before Ken used it but i still always think of that. brainwashing.
	10:01pm Michael Shore: Il Move-o
	10:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: The Move must have achieved a modicum of popularity in Italy judging by the cover versions of their songs there.
	10:04pm Ira: Playing the whole Todd-o-phonic Todd repertoire tonight!
	10:05pm Gaylord Fields: @Todd-o-phonic Todd: Have you got Little Pupa's Italian version of "Night of Fear"?
	10:05pm leshwatt: Ragged glory
	10:05pm Ira: Although to be accurate (and I was typing this comment before he piped up on the message board), this was a duet w/Gaylord Fields.
	10:05pm Gaylord Fields: Nice save, Ira.
	10:06pm farmer john∅: you got 5 seconds i'ma start shootin'
	10:07pm Hackensack Slim: Todd@9:25, I recall you twisting on a bar stool to the "Lone Twister" at a Hangover Hop many moons ago.
	10:09pm TK: Tom Petty!!!
	10:12pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Hackensack Slim: For obvious reasons I don't remember that!
	10:13pm coelacanth∅: one of my favorite Tom Petty songs is also a b-side ('gators on the lawn)
	10:14pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Gaylord Fields: I bought that Little Pupa record after hearing you play it!
	10:14pm coelacanth∅: georgia slop a great track. it's on the dancing at the nick at nightclub album
	10:15pm Gaylord Fields: Todd, I'm glad you got a copy — it's molto bene!
	10:17pm Ira: I clearly should have been listening to that installment of the Gaylord Fields program!
	10:17pm sufferwords: CSUN- Vallance - ah man
	10:20pm Gaylord Fields: Ira, my show is pretty well established as the place to hear the very best in Move covers in Italian, a la Scott Muni's Things From England segment.
	10:21pm Gaylord Fields: Did he say "the baked Bahamas"? He didn't know the half of it!
	10:23pm There is no greater hug: Lo Fai!
	10:25pm Joe B: @Todd - playlist started in 2000 though holdouts like me and Gaylord lasted into the next year or so
	10:26pm Tamar: I am hearting this whole set.
	10:27pm mariano: Hey Ira, Crew, folks! I see we have quite a distinguished audience here tonight. I'm also glad to see some FMU DJs here (waka waka).
	10:27pm Somm Ben: I second Tamar's sentiment.
	10:27pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Joe B: I was but a lowly fill-in DJ at that time but I think I came around to it late myself.
	10:28pm There is no greater hug: Lo fai? Lo fai? vuoi il mio amore?
	10:29pm Gaylord Fields: @Joe B: I held out on doing regular playlists for years after they were first implemented.
	10:29pm Joe B: and when I say holdouts, it was because I didn't know how to do it! I used to type it in and email it to efd. shockingly, he still talks to me!
	10:30pm Joe B: @gaylord - oh yeah, that's right. maybe for that first year, I was thinking of archiving shows?
	10:31pm Joe B: hey mariano!
	10:32pm Pidge: $498 gets IRA to his goal. Pledge now IraNauts! pledge.wfmu.org...
	10:32pm tullius: this show is bringing back memories of resting awake late at night listening to some detroit radio station on a hand wound homemade radio, which you could not pick up on store bought radios. Tiger games followed by Dr. Demento...
	10:33pm Joe B: hey clay!
	10:34pm Ira: Thanking some people with different colored passports: Alex in Delta, BC and Javier in Berlin. Danke!
	10:35pm Joe B: Los Microwaves with a belated answer song to The Bootles?
	10:35pm Clay Pigeon: Joe B! Todd! The gang's all here! I gotta run and get back to work. Keep pledging!
	10:36pm Ira: Really glad to have you here, Clay Pigeon, but . . . get some rest!!!
	10:37pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: THE PIDGE!!!
	10:37pm Joe B: I miss when baseball had room for guys like Ken Boswell - couldn't hit, had no power, had no speed ... but lasted 11 seasons in the majors
	10:37pm Clay Pigeon: Sounding GREAT Ira. Everyone is so psyched to have you on the schedule. Look at that! You whittled it down $318 and falling like a rock. pledge.wfmu.org...
	10:38pm Clay Pigeon: I miss Vida Blue, Joe B!
	10:39pm patrick321: @Gaylord I think you nailed it with "Move covers in Italian" but any mention of Scottso's Friday hour (or half hour?) brings back all my deep frustration with 70s radio
	10:39pm Joe B: me too. Vida is apparently a really cool person as well as being a legendary player
	10:39pm Cp304: woot woot Clay in the house!
	10:39pm Somm Ben: Thank you, WFMU DJs! This set and comment board are jammin'
	10:41pm Jason from Houston: ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱
	10:41pm Gaylord Fields: @patrick321: Next time I mention Scottso, it will be with the state mandated trigger warning.
	10:41pm mariano: Hey Joe B!
	10:42pm Joe B: I base my favorite Philly cheesesteak by which place has the most Orlons photos displayed on the walls. currently the leader is Jim's on South Street
	10:43pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Joe B: But what about the Oscar's Tavern one and a half cheesesteaks for the price of one happy hour special!
	10:43pm Joe B: oh yeah, forgot. to hell with jim's!
	10:43pm dug: nice to see so many off duty DJs in the comments. big thanks to all who keep wfmu going.
	10:43pm patrick321: Wow, Donna Esposito twice in one week? Only on WFMU ladies and gentlemen.
	10:44pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	10:44pm Ira: @patrick321: You said it! Scott Muni made me crazy, and not the good crazy. And after the fact, want to send "Heartbreak Hotel" out to our friend Naomi, in addition to Will Rigby. Mi scusi!
	10:47pm Joe B: @Todd - just don't tell the Orlons fanclub president!
	10:47pm Cp304: <- drains spit valve and tries
	10:47pm There is no greater hug: This is a hep huggers dream
	10:48pm egould310: They call themselves Trombones Unlimited, but it really sounds like only three trombones. With a name like Trombones Unlimited, I want at least 55 trombones.
	10:49pm Ira: I was thinking something similar, but more in a glass-half-full way, how great that name was, for a variety of reasons, including how inappropriate it is, and what an odd thing to brag about.
	10:50pm Joe B: nice job by McGuinn keeping this off the Turn Turn Turn album in favor of .. Oh Susannah
	10:50pm Cp304: is it just me or waiting for A time to be born, a time to die A time to plant, a time to reap A time to kill, a time to heal A time to laugh, a time to weep
	10:50pm Gaylord Fields: @patrick321 @Ira: So then do you think that Scott Muni's other job as the voiceover announcer on those "How do you spell relief?" Rolaids ads was some kind of personal penance for being a prime source of nausea?
	10:51pm Clay Pigeon: I love T.U.! Is Phil Bodner involved? Or was he The Brass Ring. May have been a spin-off, like Michael Flatley's Lord of the Dance. Darting in and out here.
	10:51pm Gaylord Fields: Margot Olavarra!!!
	10:51pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	10:51pm spodiodi: choice tune
	10:52pm Clay Pigeon: Lords*
	10:52pm Ira: @Gaylord: I suspect like a lot of performers, Scott Muni divided his time between his work gig (WFMU) and personal gigs (Rolaids).
	10:53pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: I am always going to be thankful to Scott Muni for introducing me to Slade on Things From England.
	10:53pm patrick321: @Gaylord I'm not sure I knew he was the voice of Rolaids but he probably couldn't do sufficient penance for me.
	10:53pm Ira: Of course, Todd. That's how I feel about John Miles.
	10:53pm mariano: I think I've always known somehow you were John Lydon, spodi.
	10:54pm herb.nyc: Will Rigby! I saw Steve Earle at public theater lobby last summer. I asked him about will and he told me of him marrying a NC prof and being a daddy. Aww. (This took place at a public theater buffet and he had cookie crumbs in his beard)
	10:55pm Joe B: too bad they didn't stick with how much more as the b-side for the IRS version of we got the beat
	10:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Joe B: Agree. That Stiff version of "How Much More" always gets things going when I play it out.
	10:58pm patrick321: @Todd I first heard Slade in a high school friend's car. In the early 70s we were starving for it in rural NJ.
	10:59pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Ira: In the Creem documentary there is a photo of Lester Bangs wearing a John Miles T-shirt. Must have been laundry day for Lester.
	11:00pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @patrick321: To me Quiet Riot's success with their inferior version of "Cum On Feel The Noise" just proves that Slade could have made it here had they gotten any airplay outside of Things From England.
	11:01pm Gaylord Fields: [click]
	11:01pm Joe B: yeah!!!!!!!!!
	11:01pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: I'm just going to pretend I thought he show ended at 11.
	11:02pm Matt Fiveash: Huzzah
	11:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: "the show". The "t" on my keyboard doesn't work so well.
	11:02pm Gaylord Fields: @Todd-o-phonic Todd: But it did, Todd, it did.
	11:03pm Joe B: quiet riot might easily have my most disliked singer of all time, with the guy from the strokes second, or at least in the top 5
	11:03pm Ira: A one-woman squatter!
	11:03pm Georgia: Oh it’s almost over.. I think!
	11:03pm Gaylord Fields: Outro all ad-libbed — you'd never guess!
	11:04pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Gaylord has squatter's rights.
	11:06pm Gaylord Fields: Oh, Georgia! You have the power to end it anytime you wish.
	11:07pm Matt Fiveash: Quiet Riot's shitty cover was my first exposure to Slade, closely followed by Slade's "Run Runaway" from the same era, both via videos on the short-lived Boston UHF music video channel "V66".
	11:07pm Chop Scott: This evenings entertainment just keeps on delivering--Cheers All!
	11:07pm krampus: This is krampus
	11:08pm James: There’s my Great Gaylord.
	11:09pm Gaylord Fields: Aw, James!
	11:09pm Georgia: Great Gaylord, never!
	11:10pm Gaylord Fields: Aw, Georgia, I've made my peace with the record. And it only took me about 30 years.
	11:12pm mariano: One of my favorite Kinks songs!
	11:12pm spodiodi: aloha mariano! was on KP. he's flawed like me, but unlike me (and two other pics on my profile atm), he has blue eyes and blonde hair &8^) my profile is more misleading than ever before. thanks for noticing/mentioning :) Kamala also with a K/ VP The K ftw!
	11:12pm Jedley: Over 25% of the total votes for 2016 have already been cast 2 weeks in advance.
	11:12pm Ira: Gaylord, this is a 100% unironic show. I LOVE Squat With Me Baby!
	11:12pm Georgia: @mariano mine too!
	11:13pm Ira: @Georgia and mariano: And it's the B-side!
	11:14pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, Ira. I can admit there's a lot to love about it.
	11:14pm Rick G: Jeebus, went and spaced out over two hours of appointment radio! Happy to be here, if briefly.
	11:15pm Ike: And if you're in NY, please vote for Biden/Harris on the Working Families Party line, because NY has bizarro "fusion voting" where you can vote for the candidate on any line where they appear and it'll count just as much. Also WFP needs the votes to continue to exist and keep pissing off Quid Pro Cuomo from the left.
	11:15pm spodiodi: i can't stop thinking about the time i challenged VP Harris at the BART station, and she rolled her eyes at me (i blabbed something about having dated Willie Brown -- this was years ago)... was she running for DA or Mayor then? I forget, but boy do i feel sillier than ever thinking about it now. WIN WIN WIN Kamala Harris!
	11:15pm Honeybear: @Ike for president!
	11:16pm spodiodi: the old pickle platform is real
	11:16pm spodiodi: cucumber* platform (hi Ike!)
	11:17pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	11:18pm Hoboken Jack: Hello Ira, Georgia, James (!), Skeleton, TOPT, Joe, Gaylord, Clay (get to sleep, man!!), Matt F, HP Ken, SteveL, future time travelers and present time squatters.
	11:19pm Jason from Houston: OH DANG
	11:19pm TomDash: Popping in to make sure I don't have too-too much overlap. Happy to report, I pulled the OTHER Los Mircrowaves 45...all good
	11:19pm spodiodi: aloha, Hoboken Jack
	11:20pm Honeybear: Went down an SLA rabbit hole the other day (in terms of late nite "reading") so this track is very timely for me
	11:22pm Richy4619: ddamn spodiodi, which BART station? that's what's up Ike! allo errybody. Ira!
	11:22pm Honeybear: It was good to finally catch up on the history of People's Park at least. I knew something bad happened there - but the details really are quite shocking (even for that era)
	11:22pm Ira: @TomDash: phew.
	11:22pm Ike: @Honeybear, nah, when I warned y'all about the military-industrial complex, that was it for me. The deep state will never let me back in now. Also I keep shaking babies and kissing hands instead of shaking hands and kissing babies.
	11:23pm Richy4619: lookin fwd >>> @TomDash
	11:23pm Honeybear: More like something you'd expect to happen in Soviet bloc country (or their various, often worse counterparts the US supported at the time)
	11:25pm Joe B: oh yeah!
	11:25pm Kat in Chicago: thumbs up
	11:25pm Honeybear: @Ike - so true - definitely would have been no bayoneted babies piled up in ditches on your watch
	11:25pm TK: uh huh. secrets to reveal.
	11:25pm Gaylord Fields: I just found my copy of the "Magnet and Steel" 45 yesterday while searching for singles — thanks for completing the scenario.
	11:27pm Joe B: my pick for best use of toy piano in a top 10 song
	11:27pm egould310: Magnet & Steel. This is metaphor, isn’t it?
	11:27pm Joe B: or broken glockenspiel if that is what that is
	11:28pm Gaylord Fields: @Joe B: Beats out "Summer Breeze."
	11:28pm Joe B: ah, forgot about that one!
	11:31pm Ira: Before you turn off the radio in disgust, I edited side A and B together. Singles roll steadily on!
	11:33pm Clay Pigeon: Magnet and Steel ... nice! Produced by Lindsay Buckingham! $245 and plummeting! pledge.wfmu.org...
	11:33pm absmiami: and thats the magic of radio, right ?
	11:34pm Kat in Chicago: the internet confirms toy piano, Joe B. also "Singles Going Nowhere" was super fun listening yesterday. GO TO SLEEP, CLAY.
	11:34pm Joe B: thanks Kat. and thanks Kat!
	11:35pm Jedley: www.twitch.tv... for those who like multi-tasking
	11:37pm Joe B: has anyone recorded a song about Patty Smyth?
	11:39pm Ira: Here we go!
	11:40pm Georgia: Ira said scrumptious over the air. I better bring him another beer.
	11:40pm Richy4619: Who you pullin for, Ira?
	11:41pm Clay Pigeon: @Joe B - Just read she was asked to join Van Halen at one point. Turned them down. She also said she received a lot of fanmail for Patti Smith. Go RAYS!
