Starting with the 70s -- it could be a classic (or obscure) punk rocker, a forgotten disco diva, a long-unheard hit record, or none of these. What happens next depends on what's in the WFMU new bin and whether I remember my records from home. Tune in and find out! You'll even hear a live band once in a while.

hi Nikola, hi Ainsley!
Tom, I wish I had a line on that Ram Jam album - that was vinyl from the station library. Listen to 3 Chord Monte tomorrow, one of the guys from Ram Jam is in the band he's having on.

Hurrah's! What a great place that was. I didn't go, but recall the incident you mentioned. It was so clean and spacious compared to CB's and Max's. Plus there were girls there... It was right near Lincoln Center, I think they knocked down the bldg it was in and put some thing hi rise there, no?

someone out there should look up Jimmy Page and the Factotums, I'm almost sure he played guitar on at least one of their songs at some point.

Jimmy Page was in the studio at the time and laid down a 12 string guitar fill in “Can’t Go Home Anymore My Love”

Yep. Jimmy Page did something with "Hip Young Guitar Singer." And Babelfish refuses to cooperate with all of this silly lingo going about.

Wikipedia - Hip Young Guitar Slinger - A compilation of pre Zeppelin studio sessions, recorded 1962 - 1966. The Factotums are disk 2, track 8.

Don't trust anyone over thirty is a collab between japanther and artist Dan Graham. That's maybe why it seems like a concept album.

Tom: "A&7" are you referring to "A7" that was on corner of Avenue A and East 7th Street, later turned in to King Tut's Wa Wa Hut???
(yep i remember Hurrah too . . . saw The Specials there, Suicide, a buncha others i cannot recall right now . . . )

how's king tuts wa wa hut?
Tue. 1/15/08 1:25am
From:

the wa wa hut is no more -- for many many years -- some other bar there now, don't know the name
Tue. 1/15/08 1:26am
From:
Randy in NC
I specifically recall seeing Per Ubu, james White and the Blacks, the Raybeats w/Debbie Harry there. It's kinda where Punk intersected with disco. Come to think of it, I think I saw the Specials there too.
Tue. 1/15/08 1:29am
From:
churner
oh well
Tue. 1/15/08 1:33am
From:
slugluv1313
if i remember correctly, Hurrah may have been a disco before it became Hurrah??? . . . but yeah, it sure was SPACIOUS compared to Max's, CBGB, TR3, even the Mudd Club -- nice place to dance!
then a buncha other places sprang up, in NYC and NJ, converting from "disco" to "new wave" . . . i remember seeing X at a place called The 80s (somewhere uptown?)

From:

thanks slugluv! i have to admit, i am loving this set (if i do say so myself)!
oh, and The 80s was on E. 86th, around 3rd Ave or so - not too far from Privates. I was in a band that played at The 80s once - we were on a bill with future hitmaker Desmond Child!
Tue. 1/15/08 1:39am

I went to the 80's too. A pain to get to when you lived in Brooklyn though.
Great show!!
