"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot."

The notion that one cannot use the same artist 2x on a mixed tape of a radio show is elitist and not appreciated!

I have listened to Joe Belock's show. Sometimes he plays 5 or 6 songs by the same artist all in a row. He must be a man of the people.

John Allen, I served with Joe Belock, I knew Joe Belock, Joe Belock was a friend of mine. John Allen, you're no Joe Belock.

Busted. Maybe I am elitist just like you, but I wasn't sure how many would get the reference if i didn't jump in as Lloyd.

Kenny G did two different shows, just last year, of playing the same song over and over for three hours. He must be an outright proletarian hero.
