Listener comments!

  3:03pm
issac from Baja California:

ill always remember the naked gun trilogy and Airplane... :(
  3:10pm
BSI:

what the frak? Leslie Nielsen now....?
  3:16pm
?:

Google is great...but not helping me figure out what the 3rd VU record is exactly
  3:16pm
BSI:

Thanks for this.... much of the Coil back catalog has been on heavy rotation at BSI HQ of late...
  3:20pm
Scott:

Sure thing BSI! Dear ?, it's just called Velvet Underground, the one with Candy Says, Pale Blue Eyes, Jesus and all those other mega-downers - that I truly love.
  3:23pm
Mike East:

Sure, most of that record is a downer, but After Hours always cheers me up.
  3:24pm
?:

thanks Scott! the Velve was my first guess, but i assumed the reference was to something more obscure...carry on grasshopper
  3:25pm
Scott:

Hey Mike East - ha! Yeah, Mo saves the day, coming in at the last second to hide the sharp objects!
  3:29pm
Mark:

Hey Scott, can you play a love song. You know ... where boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day? RIP Leslie Nielsen.
  3:33pm
Scott:

@Mark, Ha! (this fits, no?)
  3:35pm
paul b:

Wild! I was just thinking of this song (pale blues eyes) this very moment after seeing it was used in the soundtrack to the film Vertical Ray of the Sun
  3:36pm
tim:

I just read the VU book "White Light/White Heat" which documented the Velvets activities "day by day". It took me about a month and a half to read it but it was quite informative.
  3:37pm
noah:

That song alone makes me able to forgive Lou Reed for performing the entirety of "The Raven" when I saw him live a few years ago.
  3:39pm
Parq:

@Mark, 3:29 - Goodyear?
  3:40pm
Bad Ronald:

No, it was a bad year.
  3:40pm
Mike East:

I just bought "Berlin" used. Its better than I was expecting.
  3:41pm
Bad Ronald:

@Mike East - I love Berlin, it's a tear jerker with quite a cast! Nice production by Bob Ezrin.
  3:43pm
issac from Tijuana:

Lou Reed's Coney Island Baby is more of a wrist slahser for me
  3:44pm
jojo:

don't forget nasty little french kids
  3:44pm
Adler:

I got my brochure and it was stunning. Thanks Scott.
  3:47pm
Happy Listener:

Thanks, Scott, for telling me about the Lexicon MPX-100 a few weeks back. I bought one for my wife's birthday, and she's thrilled. Eventually, I'll get a chance to hear my guitar thru it.
  3:48pm
Scott:

Happy Listener, that makes me -really- happy!
  3:50pm
jeff-m:

thanks for the Nina Simone track. Odd song the way it was built around that odd melody.
  3:52pm
Happy Listener:

Awesome!

On another note... R.I.P. "Sleazy"? All of Coil has moved on, now? When? How? He didn't fall off a balcony, too?
  3:53pm
BSI:

ooh, feeding my Vinton fetish now.

and Happy Listener: Jhonn and Sleazy were certainly the core, I suppose, but heavy collaborators are many. Thighpaulsandra & co....
  3:54pm
Brian in UK:

This Bobby Vinton is priceless.
  3:55pm
Happy Listener:

This hurts me a little. I'm going to tune out for a bit and listen to Time Machines and Love's Secret Domain.
  3:59pm
don:

damn near perfect, this TG. yo there, scott. the dull objects are the ones to really fear!
  4:00pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

Hi Scott. I've been here all along but I've just now decided to say I really like this track.
  4:01pm
Scott:

Yeah Don, really hitting the spot. I live in Candyland by the way, there are no dull objects here.
  4:13pm
don:

that explains a lot, scott. was looking into renting the crooked old peanut brittle house.. http://tinyurl.com/candylandddddd .. but got tweaked on gumdrops, flipped wig and jet sailed out of there instead.
  4:19pm
Scott:

yeh Don, that happens a lot here
  4:31pm
Capitalz:

same progression as the Billy the Kid theme, no?
  4:33pm
Capitalz:

well played!
  4:34pm
Scott:

Cued up, smartypants, I heard that too - same melody.
  4:34pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

I gotta dig this album out. I used to listen to this when I was in 8th grade when everyone else was listening to Culture Club.
  4:35pm
Capitalz:

i didnt mean to steal your thunder, scott. fucking psyched though!
  4:37pm
Scott:

No worries Capitalz, I keep my thunder with my blunt objects
  4:43pm
Happy Listener:

Ahh, coming back to a Velvets cover, very nice.
  4:47pm
Happy Listener:

After listening to some choice Coil tracks, I noticed an interesting passage in "The Snow - Answers Come In Dreams II". It's a snippet of Alan Watts talking about humankind's attitude towards death, about it being "falsely important". I thought it was interesting, anyway, in a time when I feel like my heroes are slipping over the horizon more quickly than I'd like.
  4:53pm
BSI:

"does Death come alone? ... or with eager reinforcements?"
-- coil, fire of the mind / ape of naples

Actually, that fine TG track left me hungry for the coil disc "constant shallowness leads to evil" ... the series of tunes called Tunnel of Goats. It's beautiful and brutal...
  5:03pm
marq:

chime
  5:06pm
Capitalz:

this background cut makes me a lot happy
  5:07pm
Sharp Object:

I'm still right here, yoohoo....
  5:08pm
Blackproaganda:

What was the bolero track?
  5:09pm
marq:

My receiver died. death. I need to get a new one to be able to hear wfmu through my big speakers and to play records. Lonely turntables just sitting there. wonder what they are thinking? They are just lifeless without the receiver.
  5:11pm
Scott:

Hey Blackproaganda, that's Kebekelektrik's version of Ravel's Bolero
  5:11pm
Capitalz:

marq, bet they are thinking "now where did scott put all those sharp objects?"
  5:14pm
Stylus:

Turntables always have a sharp object nearby.
  5:16pm
Capitalz:

needle-less to say, there are exceptions to that rule, stylus.
  5:17pm
Stylus:

ouch!!!!
  5:18pm
Stylus:

Sorry, I was cutting.
  5:19pm
Capitalz:

the cheese or the rug?!
and seriously. ya blowing minds today scott.
  5:20pm
Stylus:

Myself, gramps.
  5:22pm
Capitalz:

well i musta been born yesterday
  5:22pm
redwing:

Where are the Stones?
  5:30pm
marq:

I am actually not really listening to the show that much. since my receiver has died and gone on an airplane to heaven with Leslie Nielsen I can't hear anything in my underground studio lair. I have wireless speakers hooked up around the house and in the garage. When I go for a beer in the garage I hear the show.
  5:30pm
jeremy:

hi
  5:32pm
Scott:

Hey Jer
  5:35pm
jeremy:

i'm a little pissed that i'd turned the volume down around 2 pm and at 5 realized there was no music, and what was worse, i'd missed two hours of your show. utter failure. sucks about leslie neilson. will be missed.
  5:36pm
redwing:

hey Scott, where are the fucking Stones?
  5:53pm
jeff-m:

good show today man, enjoyed it very much
  5:57pm
Scott:

Oh, thanks a lot Jeff! Coming from you...
  6:00pm
Bad Ronald:

For what it's worth, I concur w/Jeff-M enthusiastically.

Nurse - Scalpel!
