	10:18am Johnny Staten Island: Valerie June is absolutely amazing. Had the good fortune to hear her at Philly Folk fest where she totally crushed it out that Saturday night. Very special voice.
	10:18am Pale Son: @Joe Yeah, it was and was stupidly scheduled for the day of the US election, so lots of uncertainty and negativity swirling around. But that Yusef Lateef track weirdly anchored me in the chaos and made it enjoyable. Still gives me the same feeling.
	10:19am Phillippe Bastille: This Valerie June is nice
	10:21am morphe': In the House: TDK60 and dvd .... looking for 8track and Reel2Reel and Vinyl784533 = we will have a full house .... we don't need no stinkin' BlueRays

	10:27am Roberto: You take the 4no1 to the 405 to the 101...
	10:27am TerrDE: is this pre or post Lana ? sounds very similar ?
	10:27am Dayffid: I can't believe how much good music has come out this year already. Maybe my surprise just shows that I'm not paying close enough attention. but the amount of times I've starred a song from 2021 the last few weeks seems unusually high.
	10:28am David in London: Afternoon Dayffid.
	10:31am Dayffid: Afternoon David, How are things in London Town?
	10:34am Pale Son: Jale! My old friends. Love it!
	10:35am TDK60: morphe' : Maybe if I had one of those ray blue things there'd be more room around this house..
	10:35am David in London: Sunny thanks Dayffid. Though we’re stuck indoors writing a tender. But Joe’s yipping sounds are helping.
	10:39am morphe': The Cyclones You're So Cool ... Thanks Joe !!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:40am Joe McG: No, thank YOU, morphe'!
	10:41am greg g: loving the singles Joe!
	10:41am Dayffid: Good luck with your tender David, hope it goes well for you! Enjoy the sunshine and what I assume are the yipping sound of Joe the... dog?
	10:41am Spankyflop: Per the Cyclones Wikipedia page: was played extensively on college (such as WNYU) and independent stations (such as WFMU where it is still played to this day)
	10:42am Dayffid: Oh dear! what has Gene done now...
	10:42am The Oscar: "I'm leaving a note here in the vestibule" is my new favorite opening line.
	👻 10:42am karlward: Ice cold
	10:42am Joe McG: @Oscar: I love that he used the word "VESTIBULE"!
	10:43am Glistener MW: Not enough songs mention vestibules anymore. #KidsTheseDays
	10:43am Rick A: A Gene Chandler song that is not "Duke of Earl", leave it to Joe to find the deep cut singles.
	10:43am Dayffid: Jesus.. you couldn't have told her this before now!
	10:43am seedfriend: Brutalcore
	10:44am The Oscar: The only other one that comes to mind is "My Ding-A-Ling!"
	10:44am McGroovey: I think I have that Jale 7" and one or two more. I need to excavate my trunk of singles.
	10:45am Dayffid: what about "Vesibules in the night'?
	10:45am The Oscar: Banyo Boy!!
	👻 10:45am karlward: That echo!
	10:45am herb.nyc: Hola. “Not the marrying kind”? Is that for Sheila B? Off to laundromat. Like, my wfmu hoody is so over worn and dirty. (Yrs?)
	10:46am bo: oh, that banyo boy is back again
	10:46am Joe McG: @herb: It's a Sheila B. answer record, yeah! She was playing wedding songs on Friday, so I thought this would be funny. In joke!
	10:47am greg g: still not sure of the difference between a vestibule and a foyer www.hunker.com...
	👻 10:47am Brian in UK: Surface Noise. Home of the Hits.
	10:47am andy the painter: Joe....c’mon....this Banjo Boy is completely pandering to to hipster crowd.
	10:48am Joe McG: @Brian: Ha ha ha @andy: Yeah, what a dip!
	👻 10:48am waters7: Just love this dopey song!

We’d be alightt, in the middle of the night, going hard together! : ) i love singing songs and miss playing with the team dearly! Music so good
	10:49am The Oscar: Frat rock is one of those extinct genres I kinda wish would come back (though maybe with a different name).
	10:49am David in London: I feel that The Residents missed a trick in not covering Banjo Boy.
	10:49am morphe': Greg - ONE (Snooty Tone) One finds a FOYER in London or Paris ... a vestibule in Chicago .....
	👻 10:50am tim from champaign (now washington): Hey Joe and Rock & Roll Weirdos!
	👻 10:51am Threemoons: This song MUST be used as opening music for at least one WFMU program.
	10:53am βrian: As I smile the whole world, like, similes with me.
	10:53am The Oscar: Trying to figure out where I've heard "Rock & Roll Weirdos" before. Maybe on Dr. Demento, decades ago?
	10:53am PaulRobeson1920: If I were the marrying kind, Which thank the L-rd i’m not sir! The kind of man that I would be , Would be a big prop-forward! And he’d bind tight, And She’d bind tight, We’d both bind tight together! We’d be alright in the middle of the night, Binding tight together!
	10:53am greg g: thanks morphe' ! I think the biggest take away for me though is that Gene Chandler is high class !!
	10:53am David in London: Hey Tim, morphester. Hubig, good Headcoats nod there.
	10:54am joe mulligan: when I hear "When You're Smiling" it makes me think of X-Ray Burns
	10:55am morphe': To: David in London: "Hey Tim, morphester. " You startled me there for a moment since I am Tim Murphy ...
	10:56am morphe': David van der Stoke Just don't tell The Bill ...
	10:57am Hubig Pie: You can have your vestibules I'll stick with my breezeway
	10:57am PaulRobeson1920: I’f I was the marrying kind! Which thank the L-rd I’n not sir! I’d be a Rugby Flyy Half! And he’d find touch, and I’d find touch, We’d both find touch together. We’d be alright in the middle of the night, Finding touch together... : ) it’s not the same as face to face human interaction, but it sure makes me hAppy to “sing” that song right here right now
	10:58am Handy Haversack: Morning, Joe and all! I am back home and second vaxxed! morph, David, PR1020, tim, Threemoons, βrian, Brian, (BRIAN!), Hubig, all!
	10:58am B/wad: Have we talked about how this track is an anagram for 'Talking Heads' ?
	👻 10:59am tim from champaign (now washington): Was Eno fresh off of working with Devo when he recorded t his?
	10:59am Handy Haversack: And how effortlessly it echoes TH sound? I love it. I think you added too much butter.
	10:59am TerrDE: madam i m adam
	10:59am spodiodi: good morning, Joe McGasko and surface surfers!
	10:59am B/wad: That's a palindrome, TerrDE ;)
	👻 10:59am tim from champaign (now washington): Oh wow, I didn't even catch the Talking Heads nod here.
	11:00am TerrDE: Talking Heads anagram
	11:00am Rich in Washington: There's also a weird, sort of backwards rendition of this tune on one of Eno's collaborations with Cluster, I think.
	👻 11:00am SeaCreature: That scream is missing from cd and subsequently remixes >.<
	11:01am Glistener MW: Great Eno!!! “Grenoat”, one might say.
	11:01am greg g: Hubig Pie : Yes breezeways rule!
	11:01am steveo: morning, handy; congrats!
	11:01am steveo: (congraxx?)
	👻 11:01am Ken From Hyde Park: Congrats on a successful shot, Handy. I guess that implies you can take a shot now to celebrate.
	11:01am Handy Haversack: Thanks, steveo! It's a lovely day in the old BK! Ken, I grabbed a celebratory bagel sandwich on the way home, but I like the way you think!
	11:01am TerrDE: yes, anagrams always make me think of palandromes
	11:02am greg g: B/wad; Thanks for that anagram tip and yes Handy that song is a real gem!
	11:02am Doug in JC: @Handy We're going to get Shayna's second today. Pretty exciting!
	11:02am morphe': Ps Eno - the B side "RAF" is sort of like Velvet Underground's The Gift ... a MumbleAge ..
	👻 11:02am Brian in UK: Handy hope there are no side effects like K8.
	11:03am Handy Haversack: Fantastic, Doug! Brian, I'm hoping that taking a shot can mitigate the side effects of getting a shot!
	11:03am B/wad: That's because 'anagram' is the same word backwards
	11:03am Hubig Pie: Drink lotsa water Mr Haversack Or maybe gin Not sure which one it's supposed to be Both maybe
	11:04am PaulRobeson1920: Hello @Handy! Good Job!
	11:04am David in London: Handy! Spod! B/wad! Hello Groovers.

	11:07am paul: King's Lead Hat is an anagram for Talking Heads
	11:07am PaulRobeson1920: Yesterday, I purchased a 45’ of Paul Reaver and the Raiders for 50 cents. I picked it up for the photo on the sleeve! Big smiles all around hahaha
	11:08am PaulRobeson1920: Revere* (i’m proud of my record collection, six Months old!)
	11:10am Spankyflop: Maybe you need to do a "cassingle" file sometime.
	11:11am David in London: Kings Lead Hat is also an anagram of Dating Haskel...
	11:12am Brendan: Statistics are like a bikini. What is revealed is nice. What is hidden is vital.
	11:13am The Oscar: Cassingle Cafile!
	👻 11:14am Ken From Hyde Park: I wonder if any local libraries have a collection of cassingles available for lending.
	11:14am Handy Haversack: Don't I know it, David.
	11:16am The Oscar: One time in college I stumbled across a basket of cassingles on the sidewalk. The only decent one was Public Enemy, along with a bunch of Backstreet Boys.
	11:16am PaulRobeson1920: Nice day outside!! Enjoy ya’ll! Peace and LoVe! Thank you Joe & WFMU! Time to get those 5 gallon Potato buckets started!! Those fuzzy, brightly colored chitting potatoes await! : )

	11:18am Brendan: I still have the original AM/FM stereo cassette deck in my 20-year-old beater.
	11:18am listener 126464: Pearl Harbor & The Explosions played The Show Place in Dover sometime in 1980.
	11:19am Handy Haversack: Our tape deck doesn't have autoreverse. That's a lot of getting up and down! Hey, Baby! Oh, wow, βrian, that is super cool! Thanks for the tip!
	11:19am Listener Baby: Hi Handy. Hope all is great.
	11:19am βrian: Great Horned, I'm pretty sure.
	11:20am Roberto: Whoa a Joan cover!
	11:20am Krys O.: Cover of Joan! WOW!
	11:22am Krys O.: Joan Armatrading on the inspiration for writing the song: It was not a romantic couple that inspired this song, but rather two feuding band members. Armatrading recalled to Daniel Rachel in the book The Art of Noise: Conversations with Great Songwriters: "It's actually about two chaps on tour who were in my band. One of them was little and one was big and they were always arguing, always doing what it says in that song, but you kind of had the feeling that they loved it. Just getting at each other: you'd think, 'Get a room already.' They weren't gay. Like a terrier, that just gets any big dog."
	11:23am Roberto: Poster song for co-dependency.
	11:24am bo: he's been living in doggie daze?
	11:26am Little Danny: Hi Joe, hi y'all!
	11:27am Marie: Thanks for the power pop, Joe! It's really hitting the spot for me this morning. Caffeine for the ears!
	11:27am Roberto: This song is the Monday morning antidote.
	11:28am Joe McG: @Marie: So glad! I was in the mood for some!
	11:28am Marie: Right on, Roberto @)
	11:29am Marie: Hey, joe, i am right with you--spring is really springing!
	11:30am JP From KC: Hey everyone! Nice to be tuning in live again, for a change. I once picked up decent lot of vinyl from a huge estate sale for someone that had once been connected to the radio station on a nearby state college campus, and the casingles alone could’ve filled pickup truck. I regret not having more friends back then, or I would’ve come away with a lot more than what I could stuff into my backseat.
	11:31am ChrisB.: I can't believe this Joe, but I actually have the last three records you've played!
	11:32am spodiodi: howdy, David (in London)! (sorry so slow to reply... weasels)
	11:33am Rich in Washington: I once found an ad where a prominent local alt/weekly rag was looking for a home for all their review CDs, so I went to pick them up to help create a library for the college station I was DJing at at the time. It was depressing to see so many home made or small press CDs just unopened and ignored. I kept a bunch of cooler stuff as payment for my time and toil, natch.
	11:33am Joe McG: @ChrisB.: Good man!
	11:35am spodiodi: funky, funky Cambridge St. lol
	11:35am The Oscar: As a lifelong Masshole, I am FLABBERGASTED that I've never heard this Carl Leeds!
	11:35am Jeezuseffinchrist: its not a date with a Boston Girl until you walk along and talk along

	11:40am egould310: How many “Summer Fests” or “Lobster Fests” did Carl Leeds play back in the day?
	11:40am JP From KC: @Rich, I remember mining for gold in the reject bin at my campus station, too. Pulled a few solid gems, but I remember that same feeling. So much potential to be judged so thoughtlessly.

	11:45am Joe McG: I'm in a 1980 mood!
	11:46am Rich in Washington: @JP From KC: I just feel bad for the cute homemade CDs, often with personal notes to the reviewers. That rag also had some unbelievably smug and snotty reviews, so maybe they got off easy being ignored. It certainly gave the part of me that wanted - at the time - to be a music producer pause.

	👻 11:54am 12539: Thanks as always, Joe!
	11:54am listener 126464: Thanks Joe McG!
	11:54am Rick A: I read that when Nic Harcourt hosted the morning show on KCRW, he would give each CD sent to the station a five minute listen to decide if he would play anything from it due to the large volume of submissions sent to independent stations that Joe B mentions.
	11:54am Mungerphut: Carl Leeds also has a song called "Jamaica."
	11:54am Joe McG: Thanks for listening, everyone! See you next week with something completely different. Hope you all have a good week!

	10:18am Pale Son: @Joe Yeah, it was and was stupidly scheduled for the day of the US election, so lots of uncertainty and negativity swirling around. But that Yusef Lateef track weirdly anchored me in the chaos and made it enjoyable. Still gives me the same feeling.

	10:27am TerrDE: is this pre or post Lana ? sounds very similar ?
	10:27am Dayffid: I can't believe how much good music has come out this year already. Maybe my surprise just shows that I'm not paying close enough attention. but the amount of times I've starred a song from 2021 the last few weeks seems unusually high.
	10:28am David in London: Afternoon Dayffid.

	10:34am Pale Son: Jale! My old friends. Love it!

	10:43am Glistener MW: Not enough songs mention vestibules anymore. #KidsTheseDays
	10:43am Rick A: A Gene Chandler song that is not "Duke of Earl", leave it to Joe to find the deep cut singles.
	10:43am Dayffid: Jesus.. you couldn't have told her this before now!
	10:43am seedfriend: Brutalcore

	10:49am David in London: I feel that The Residents missed a trick in not covering Banjo Boy.
	10:49am morphe': Greg - ONE (Snooty Tone) One finds a FOYER in London or Paris ... a vestibule in Chicago .....
	👻 10:50am tim from champaign (now washington): Hey Joe and Rock & Roll Weirdos!
	👻 10:51am Threemoons: This song MUST be used as opening music for at least one WFMU program.
	10:53am βrian: As I smile the whole world, like, similes with me.
	10:53am The Oscar: Trying to figure out where I've heard "Rock & Roll Weirdos" before. Maybe on Dr. Demento, decades ago?
	10:53am PaulRobeson1920: If I were the marrying kind, Which thank the L-rd i’m not sir! The kind of man that I would be , Would be a big prop-forward! And he’d bind tight, And She’d bind tight, We’d both bind tight together! We’d be alright in the middle of the night, Binding tight together!
	10:53am greg g: thanks morphe' ! I think the biggest take away for me though is that Gene Chandler is high class !!
	10:53am David in London: Hey Tim, morphester. Hubig, good Headcoats nod there.
	10:54am joe mulligan: when I hear "When You're Smiling" it makes me think of X-Ray Burns

	10:58am Handy Haversack: Morning, Joe and all! I am back home and second vaxxed! morph, David, PR1020, tim, Threemoons, βrian, Brian, (BRIAN!), Hubig, all!
	10:58am B/wad: Have we talked about how this track is an anagram for 'Talking Heads' ?
	👻 10:59am tim from champaign (now washington): Was Eno fresh off of working with Devo when he recorded t his?
	10:59am Handy Haversack: And how effortlessly it echoes TH sound? I love it. I think you added too much butter.
	10:59am TerrDE: madam i m adam
	10:59am spodiodi: good morning, Joe McGasko and surface surfers!
	10:59am B/wad: That's a palindrome, TerrDE ;)
	👻 10:59am tim from champaign (now washington): Oh wow, I didn't even catch the Talking Heads nod here.
	11:00am TerrDE: Talking Heads anagram
	11:00am Rich in Washington: There's also a weird, sort of backwards rendition of this tune on one of Eno's collaborations with Cluster, I think.
	👻 11:00am SeaCreature: That scream is missing from cd and subsequently remixes >.<
	11:01am Glistener MW: Great Eno!!! “Grenoat”, one might say.

	11:01am Handy Haversack: Thanks, steveo! It's a lovely day in the old BK! Ken, I grabbed a celebratory bagel sandwich on the way home, but I like the way you think!
	11:01am TerrDE: yes, anagrams always make me think of palandromes
	11:02am greg g: B/wad; Thanks for that anagram tip and yes Handy that song is a real gem!
	11:02am Doug in JC: @Handy We're going to get Shayna's second today. Pretty exciting!
	11:02am morphe': Ps Eno - the B side "RAF" is sort of like Velvet Underground's The Gift ... a MumbleAge ..
	👻 11:02am Brian in UK: Handy hope there are no side effects like K8.
	11:03am Handy Haversack: Fantastic, Doug! Brian, I'm hoping that taking a shot can mitigate the side effects of getting a shot!
	11:03am B/wad: That's because 'anagram' is the same word backwards
	11:03am Hubig Pie: Drink lotsa water Mr Haversack Or maybe gin Not sure which one it's supposed to be Both maybe
	11:04am PaulRobeson1920: Hello @Handy! Good Job!

	11:08am PaulRobeson1920: Revere* (i’m proud of my record collection, six Months old!)
	11:10am Spankyflop: Maybe you need to do a "cassingle" file sometime.
	11:11am David in London: Kings Lead Hat is also an anagram of Dating Haskel...
	11:12am Brendan: Statistics are like a bikini. What is revealed is nice. What is hidden is vital.
	11:13am The Oscar: Cassingle Cafile!
	👻 11:14am Ken From Hyde Park: I wonder if any local libraries have a collection of cassingles available for lending.
	11:14am Handy Haversack: Don't I know it, David.
	11:16am The Oscar: One time in college I stumbled across a basket of cassingles on the sidewalk. The only decent one was Public Enemy, along with a bunch of Backstreet Boys.
	11:16am PaulRobeson1920: Nice day outside!! Enjoy ya’ll! Peace and LoVe! Thank you Joe & WFMU! Time to get those 5 gallon Potato buckets started!! Those fuzzy, brightly colored chitting potatoes await! : )

	11:19am Handy Haversack: Our tape deck doesn't have autoreverse. That's a lot of getting up and down! Hey, Baby! Oh, wow, βrian, that is super cool! Thanks for the tip!
	11:19am Listener Baby: Hi Handy. Hope all is great.
	11:19am βrian: Great Horned, I'm pretty sure.
	11:20am Roberto: Whoa a Joan cover!
	11:20am Krys O.: Cover of Joan! WOW!
	11:22am Krys O.: Joan Armatrading on the inspiration for writing the song: It was not a romantic couple that inspired this song, but rather two feuding band members. Armatrading recalled to Daniel Rachel in the book The Art of Noise: Conversations with Great Songwriters: "It's actually about two chaps on tour who were in my band. One of them was little and one was big and they were always arguing, always doing what it says in that song, but you kind of had the feeling that they loved it. Just getting at each other: you'd think, 'Get a room already.' They weren't gay. Like a terrier, that just gets any big dog."
	11:23am Roberto: Poster song for co-dependency.
	11:24am bo: he's been living in doggie daze?
	11:26am Little Danny: Hi Joe, hi y'all!
	11:27am Marie: Thanks for the power pop, Joe! It's really hitting the spot for me this morning. Caffeine for the ears!
	11:27am Roberto: This song is the Monday morning antidote.
	11:28am Joe McG: @Marie: So glad! I was in the mood for some!
	11:28am Marie: Right on, Roberto @)
	11:29am Marie: Hey, joe, i am right with you--spring is really springing!
	11:30am JP From KC: Hey everyone! Nice to be tuning in live again, for a change. I once picked up decent lot of vinyl from a huge estate sale for someone that had once been connected to the radio station on a nearby state college campus, and the casingles alone could’ve filled pickup truck. I regret not having more friends back then, or I would’ve come away with a lot more than what I could stuff into my backseat.
	11:31am ChrisB.: I can't believe this Joe, but I actually have the last three records you've played!
	11:32am spodiodi: howdy, David (in London)! (sorry so slow to reply... weasels)
	11:33am Rich in Washington: I once found an ad where a prominent local alt/weekly rag was looking for a home for all their review CDs, so I went to pick them up to help create a library for the college station I was DJing at at the time. It was depressing to see so many home made or small press CDs just unopened and ignored. I kept a bunch of cooler stuff as payment for my time and toil, natch.
	11:33am Joe McG: @ChrisB.: Good man!
	11:35am spodiodi: funky, funky Cambridge St. lol
	11:35am The Oscar: As a lifelong Masshole, I am FLABBERGASTED that I've never heard this Carl Leeds!
	11:35am Jeezuseffinchrist: its not a date with a Boston Girl until you walk along and talk along
	11:35am Marie: This is so fun
	11:36am Little Danny: This is ridiculous and great.
	👻 11:37am Ken From Hyde Park: Yay, Boston Girls, or Bog Nostrils, if you will.
	11:37am efd: @The Oscar, not lifelong but otherwise I was thinking the same thing!
	11:38am Joe McG: Heya, Little Danny, missed you there!
	11:39am dave wuz here: also flabbergasted in woburn
	11:40am egould310: How many “Summer Fests” or “Lobster Fests” did Carl Leeds play back in the day?
	11:40am JP From KC: @Rich, I remember mining for gold in the reject bin at my campus station, too. Pulled a few solid gems, but I remember that same feeling. So much potential to be judged so thoughtlessly.
	11:43am Handy Haversack: I think of playing with yo-yos as a qualification!
	11:44am SmokinJ: Nice stuff today jm! 8-)
	11:45am Joe McG: I'm in a 1980 mood!
	11:46am Rich in Washington: @JP From KC: I just feel bad for the cute homemade CDs, often with personal notes to the reviewers. That rag also had some unbelievably smug and snotty reviews, so maybe they got off easy being ignored. It certainly gave the part of me that wanted - at the time - to be a music producer pause.
	11:47am Joe B: good morning joe and everyone
	👻 11:47am Marley P. Dogg: Joe McG - thanks for the very very fine toons this morning! Ive been meaning to send some 45’s your way - will get on that - hope you’re well!
	11:48am Joe McG: @Joe B.: Giving you a good transition for a change! :)
	11:50am Joe B: regarding unlistened to items, if you ever saw the avalanche of stuff that comes in and if you are in the position where you HAVE to deal with it, your perspective changes very fast. i was music director for two years at my previous station. ear fatigue is real
	11:50am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

	11:53am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Joe! Glad to have caught the last hour. See you fine folx at the Next Joe Up's!
	👻 11:54am 12539: Thanks as always, Joe!
	11:54am listener 126464: Thanks Joe McG!
	11:54am Rick A: I read that when Nic Harcourt hosted the morning show on KCRW, he would give each CD sent to the station a five minute listen to decide if he would play anything from it due to the large volume of submissions sent to independent stations that Joe B mentions.
	11:54am Mungerphut: Carl Leeds also has a song called "Jamaica."
	11:54am Joe McG: Thanks for listening, everyone! See you next week with something completely different. Hope you all have a good week!
