	9:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& after Her New ☽Moon ~ partial Eclipse rendezvous with the ⦿Sun in ♉︎Taurus - moody ☽Luna has commuted into nervous communicative versatile ♊︎Gemini for a few days - where She joins Messenger ☿Mercury, who has just recently entered ♊︎Gemini, His home sign himself.

	🎸 ♥ 9:32am Mike W: Ian Matthews, such a great coverman
	9:33am Tom from Stirling: Polly! Always liked this song. First time hearing this version.
	9:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ♏︎Scorpio Brutha GeneClark ...Plant & Krauss a hard act to follow on this one...
	9:35am Brendan: @Mike W, that’s Iain . He added a vowel to avoid confusion with his name sake in King Crimson.
	♥ 9:36am Lixiviated Life: Ok hi again.
	9:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well '74 - they follow him..
	🎸 ♥ 9:39am Mike W: Brendan, that’s Ian (using the spelling from the cover of Journeys from Gospel Oak, which is where his version of “Polly” first appeared).
	9:42am Brendan: @Mike W right you are. I thought when he changed from Ian McDonald to Matthews, he changed the first name too, but apparently that was later.
	9:42am Brendan: MacDonald.
	🎸 ♥ 9:43am JeremyB: Good Morning Joe!
	9:44am olacle: Here for the Joe McG music, yet again! Moving houses on this brilliantly sunny day
	🎸 ♥ 9:46am JeremyB: That movie freaked me out when i saw it as a kid... the scene in the beginning where the dad tries to kill the kids... crazy.
	🎸 ♥ 9:47am JeremyB: The film has a great soundtrack too
	9:47am karlo: All hail great actor david gulpili! Best mating dance ever in that movie
	9:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @olacle: Moving - oof ! Grateful if the weather is good for it..
	9:48am Rock Ridge Chess Club: There is an echo of Joe on the mountain this morning, as I stream to devices at once. One of the roof where I'm working and another down in the basements where I'm making cuts and such. It's like a splash of Garbage Time in my Surface Noise. Cheers!
	9:49am Rock Ridge Chess Club: Let's hope my repairs are better than my spelling this morning.
	9:49am alan the painter: Yes great movie
	9:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: RRCC: Take care up there ! Nice avatar. ...Yeah, Judy Henske RIP as well.
	♥ 9:53am dale: i bought this album at a salvay a long time ago and this and that's where i went wrong really stood out. plus the red jumpsuit.
	♥ 9:55am Joe McG: @RR63: Ugh, when did Judy Henske die?
	9:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Susanna Hoffs' voice subjectively penetrates the layers of my desire & sympathy & resonates with my innermost core & make me shivers & stuff.
	9:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Birth name: Judith Anne Henske Born: December 20, 1936, Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin, U.S. Died: April 27, 2022, Los Angeles, California, U.S.
	♥ 9:57am Phillippe: I agree, RR. So many of her covers with Matthew Sweet are pure bliss. Hey everyone
	9:58am bradford: this is the freaky one...
	🎸 ♥ 9:58am Erin in TO: Never heard of The Poppy Family before, but this track is rocking my world
	♥ 9:59am Chop Scott: Good Morning Joe!
	10:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: With her husband Terry Jacks - of 'Seasons In the Sun' iirc. ...I thot blood was made in bone marrow ...science police...
	♥ 10:01am Joe McG: @Erin: Your fellow countrypeople! @Chop Scott: Wow, how are you, sir?
	🎸 ♥ 10:01am Erin in TO: @Joe this is why I love WFMU - exposes me to so much new stuff!
	🎸 ♥ 10:02am Erin in TO: New to me, I should say
	♥ 10:02am Chop Scott: I'm doing alright enough Joe!
	10:02am Andres: Good morning, Joe and all! CBC hipped me to The Poppy Family. I was immediately in the love her voice camp. RIP Susan Jacks.
	10:03am Brendan: I wish I wasn’t informed of the Terry Jacks connection. In the background of these beautiful songs I’m hearing an alternate track of that hideous Put The Bone In.
	♥ 10:05am Joe McG: @CS: Good to hear!
	♥ 10:05am dale: erin in toronto - they are candaian!!
	10:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not entirely unlike Linda Ronstadt on that - or a lot of Country vocalists. A kind of Classic Chart Radio Voice...
	♥ 10:06am dale: ...canadian even.
	🎸 ♥ 10:09am James in ATL: This Susan Jacks reminds me of Olivia Newton John. Beautiful voice.
	10:10am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just when you think she might be too girlish she steps on the gas just a bit & goes. Sits right in the center of several things! Was thinking Olivia - but actually stronger if I may say so.
	🎸 ♥ 10:11am dreamyandseedy: I first heard The Poppy Family on Sheila’s show. She played Beyond the Clouds! Just glorious!
	🎸 ♥ 10:16am Erin in TO: @dale always great to learn about another Canadian band! Even decades late
	♥ 10:16am Joe McG: The best one-stop shopping for the Poppy Family is a CD compilation called "A Good Thing Lost."
	10:16am dano59: There’s something about exposure to that classic 50s-60s country singing a la Dolly, Patsy & Lynn Anderson. Dusty started out in that style. Ronstadt & Olivia, noted.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18am Brian in UK: The Poppy Family/Susan Jacks never really got any traction over here. Apart from 'Billy'.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18am Erin in TO: @Joe thanks for the recommendation! Added it to my list of things to check out
	♥ 10:19am solo mon: Big poppy family fan! Maybe this is already discussed but Kurt Cobain used the guitar riff in the middle of poppy family’s “Evil Grows” as the basis for smells like teen spirit.
	10:20am dano59: Susanna Hoffs is a Capricorn & Susan J is on the cusp so some things are just meant to be for this Virgo
	♥ 10:21am Joe McG: Ah, Susanna, my goat sister!
	10:22am dano59: Oh sorry, that’s Judy Henske on the cusp
	10:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...♏︎Scorpio & ♑︎Cap is a thing too - but nevermind...
	10:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...looks like SusanJ was a late ⦿Sun in ♌︎Leo blondie...
	🎸 ♥ 10:26am Handy Haversack: Do what you want, Joe! You're driving the bus!
	10:26am dano59: I have scorpion competition? dagnabbit
	10:27am eva: good morning!
	10:27am rx scabin: Good morning, Joe and Everyone.
	10:28am dano59: Glad you don’t have heinous DMCA restrictions on your archives, Joe. That SJ set was sublime
	🎸 ♥ 10:29am Webhamster Henry: WFMU - your place for Autoharp! Put on some Bermuda Triangle!
	10:30am dano59: Or the 18th Day of May! Madrigal Rock for all!
	10:31am Brendan: My name is Brendan. I’m a Scorpio and I like long walks on the beach with Susanna Hoffs.
	♥ 10:32am Joe McG: @dano: Glad you enjoyed! @Brendan: I'm a Capricorn and I like warm nights in front of the fire with Susanna Hoffs.
	🎸 ♥ 10:33am Mike Sin: Enjoying your show on this rainy morning! Hi Joe McG!
	10:33am Zippy: Where did Ken move to ?
	🎸 ♥ 10:33am drr: Let me introduce myself. My name is Little Sonny. I drive a little red Volkswagen. I like to go horse-back riding. I like all kind of sweets. Cupcakes, currants, and things like that. This is why I can't help from noticing you.
	10:33am herb.nyc: really enjoyed the SUSAN JACKS songs. thanx!
	10:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I'm a Scorpio & I like rapid walks to the fire dept. after being set on fire by Susanna Hoffs...
	♥ 10:34am Joe McG: Mike Sin! Thanks for tunin' in! (also rhymes)
	🎸 ♥ 10:34am Webhamster Henry: Joe McG is like the librarian who makes those cool little thematic book displays.
	🎸 ♥ 10:34am drr: Not currants, crumpets! That's very important.
	10:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...which after all is more Bangles for yer buck...
	10:35am bradford: old school Howard Stern bed music!
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Where are you on currants in crumpets?
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this is a deal breaker...
	🎸 ♥ 10:36am drr: sounds pretty acceptable to me, but I like all kinds of sweets.
	♥ 10:36am Joe McG: @Henry: Jeez, my dream job.
	10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...in that case the position is yours. We have Tea @ 3...
	10:39am Gerry from Miami: This Lonnie Mack version of "Memphis" was a Top Ten single hit here in south Florida when I was a strapping young lad.
	🎸 ♥ 10:39am Brian in UK: Joe, contact the currantly! unabled Carol Crow, she might be able to help.
	🎸 ♥ 10:39am Son Of Pantz: Klezmer it up!
	🎸 ♥ 10:40am Handy Haversack: Knish kitsch.
	🎸 ♥ 10:40am JeremyB: Oh my! I have to play[ this for my dad!
	♥ 10:40am Joe McG: @Brian: Poor Carol, I hope she heals up soon.
	10:41am Dan: Haven't heard this song in decades! Not since Dr. Dimento.
	🎸 ♥ 10:41am YETI BOB: Was already thinking that I wanted a bagel&lox plate today. This clinches it.
	10:41am rx scabin: Clever.
	10:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <3 CarolCrow
	10:41am herb.nyc: noshville katz (meow) - we're chinese, and my mom gets nyc covid food deliveries. strangely, last friday's delivery was KOSHER foods. haha.
	10:41am Brendan: Ride ride Irving
	♥ 10:41am Joe McG: @Jeremy: I think he'll enjoy it!
	🎸 ♥ 10:42am drr: Now I want to go back to Harold's Deli in Knoxville Tennessee for a corned beef on rye.
	10:42am dano59: Now, this is why the Brooklyn Diner needs to be a national chain
	10:43am Gerry from Miami: I really miss Doctor D! Is his weekly radio show still being syndicated?
	♥ 10:43am chresti: Hi Joe and surfies!
	🎸 ♥ 10:45am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo. Shaking off the cobwebs, great set so far!
	10:45am lazy pierogi: <33333333
	🎸 ♥ 10:45am Webhamster Henry: @Gerry: drdemento.com. But if you like Novelties, WFMU's own KBC has a podcast: wfmu.org...
	🎸 ♥ 10:48am G: @Gerry: wiki article on Doc D says: "The online show follows a format similar to that of the terrestrial show; no longer being limited by a radio time slot or commercial breaks, the show usually exceeds two hours and may include "bonus tracks" at the end of the show. The weekly "Funny Five" has been replaced by a monthly Top Ten in order to allow for more comprehensive special topic segments. The new format, along with the ability to play records that previously would have been censored on the radio, has allowed Hansen to delve more deeply into his collection than was possible on the syndicated radio show." -- Much more detail available at the wiki article.
	🎸 ♥ 10:50am Handy Haversack: Morning, chresti, 3Moons!
	♥ 10:50am chresti: I the Warm guy's voice!
	♥ 10:56am coelacanth∅: hey this sounds like the nj song Alan plays in his show!
	10:57am Gerry from Miami: JOE, I remember buying the original version on a 45 of "How Glad I Am" by Nancy Wilson. She ended up marrying some super-rich Dduke or prince from some European country and they lived only about 5 or 6 miles away from me on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in south Los Angeles County. Fancy that! Nancy was one great singer! Straddled both jazz and pop.
	10:59am Cancelled Willy: Thanks for those speedy 45s DJ Surface Noise with Joe McGasko.
	10:59am Gerry from Miami: @G. Thanks a million for the skinny on Dr. Demento. I will search out that broadcast source, for sure.
	🎸 ♥ 11:03am McGroovey: "Warm" is such a lukewarm name. Smith: I bought a Smith record last year because it was $1, and I liked the cover.
	🎸 ♥ 11:03am Handy Haversack: I couldn't make it from Brooklyn on Sat., but the reports I got from Ken from Hyde Park and Doug in MP were of a great success!
	🎸 ♥ 11:03am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @Joe McG - I thought Perry Metzger was supposed to be on Techtonic tonight?
	11:03am Cancelled Willy: Would be great to hear Goddamn Dave Hill again
	🎸 ♥ 11:03am JeremyB: God Dammned Dave Hill! Amazing!
	11:04am herb.nyc: yay, dave hill!
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am Marley P. Dogg: “I don’t know - she died” hahahha
	🎸 ♥ 11:05am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH Thanks again for a great show Saturday with K8!
	11:05am herb.nyc: @mcgroovey - nice to meet you on thursday, during LINDA LINDAS. thx for letting my friend matt in. he'd like to get in touch. best way?
	🎸 ♥ 11:06am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Aaah, Perry Metzger is on the 16th. Still, tonight's show should be interesting!
	🎸 ♥ 11:07am Handy Haversack: Mama Tried is a fine, fine place! That Paul Bruno / Nate K / TomDash thing will be fantastic. Wish I could go ...
	🎸 ♥ 11:07am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @Webhamster thanks for info! Will grok.
	🎸 ♥ 11:09am Handy Haversack: SPOX
	🎸 ♥ 11:11am McGroovey: @herb.nyc contact me through my WFMU profile, and I'll send you my email address.
	🎸 ♥ 11:11am Erin in TO: Always a delight to hear Sparks on the air
	11:12am Zephyr: Bearsville homage: great idea & close to my heart as a Todd worshipper. Interest footnote is the tangled Todd and Laura Nyro saga. A bit of a tragic soap opera. She was his muse and inspiration but when they tried to work together it was not a good result…
	🎸 ♥ 11:12am Webhamster Henry: Ahh the Bearsville set I suggested ....
	🎸 ♥ 11:12am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH Never been to Mama Tried...so many new little venues!
	🎸 ♥ 11:12am Webhamster Henry: I don't live too far from Bearsville.
	🎸 ♥ 11:13am YETI BOB: Shades of "Benny and the Jets"?
	11:13am herb.nyc: @mcgroovey, gotcha. / joe said jesse winchester; i saw him perform at Joe's Pube by astor place. showed something to his wife at merch table and she laughed.
	11:13am Zephyr: BTW, I donate to the station so please teach me how to get my name to reflect thus. Signed, Zephyr the Luddite
	♥ 11:14am Joe McG: He would later write hits for Journey and get culty, this Jonathan.
	11:16am Zephyr: If your last name is “Cain” you’re obliged to get culty…
	🎸 ♥ 11:17am drr: This Bobby Charles record maintains a level of calmness and relaxation I wouldn't have thought possible. It actually makes me kind of nervous to listen to it.
	♥ 11:18am Joe McG: @Zephyr: Can you send me an e-mail after the show? jmcgasko@wfmu.org. I'll get you sorted.
	🎸 ♥ 11:18am McGroovey: @Zephyr you need to create a user profile (or sign in here using your profile login, if you already have a profile).
	🎸 ♥ 11:18am Webhamster Henry: @Zephyr if you are using the app, you are out of luck, but if you are on the website and have a WFMU Friendship Society account, "sign in" at the top right of the screen. If not, you an register and Join The Society!
	🎸 ♥ 11:19am Handy Haversack: Threemoons, it's on the R, though quite a few stops away!
	11:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Zephyr interesting re Todd & LauraNyro.
	♥ 11:19am coelacanth∅: (click link at the top says "register")
	🎸 ♥ 11:20am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH gotta check it out!
	🎸 ♥ 11:20am drr: And, yes, it's the same Bobby Charles who did "See You Later Alligator" (and "Take It Easy, Greasy (Cause You Got A Long Way To Slide)".
	🎸 ♥ 11:21am McGroovey: My favorite Bearsville acts (aside Todd Rundgren) were Elizabeth Barraclough and Foghat. (Are those spoilers?)
	🎸 ♥ 11:21am drr: re: Jonathan Cain: he was also in the Babys with John Waite (I think that's how Journey found him, The Babys were their opening act for a while).
	🎸 ♥ 11:25am McGroovey: Oh. And the dB's. I forgot they were on Bearsville.
	♥ 11:26am Ryansterlingvirtue: great show today
	♥ 11:27am Joe McG: @Ryansv: Glad you're enjoying the trip to Bearsville!
	11:29am Zephyr: Todd is Godd
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am McGroovey: Thanks for NOT playing one of the hits from Something/Anything yet again again, Joe!
	11:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So ...do the residents of Bearsville shun outsiders ...or, are they generally welcome ...perhaps even for big fuzzy hugs ?? Asking for friend.
	11:30am rx scabin: Thanks for the nice program, Joe. Good bye, Everyone.
	♥ 11:31am coelacanth∅: Zephyr i think todd would agree
	11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...honestly I'm looking for places to take Susanna later ...after our minor domestic dispute...
	♥ 11:34am Joe McG: @RR63: You might find her on Mary Street.
	11:34am NYsoul living in another place: Great music Joe! Making my Monday so happy. Thank you for playing Todd R!! 💜💜💜
	♥ 11:36am Joe McG: Glad you're enjoying!
	🎸 ♥ 11:36am James in ATL: So great to hear NRBQ! Thanks for a great show, Joe!
	🎸 ♥ 11:37am Son Of Pantz: Louisville Legends!
	🎸 ♥ 11:37am Brian in UK: Joe, interesting label. Is there any autoharp on Bearsville?
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You call that in the Break what - tack piano? Sounds almost like hammered dulcimer...
	♥ 11:38am Joe McG: @Brian: Not much, alas!
	🎸 ♥ 11:39am McGroovey: I have an autoharp sound in my head from a Todd Rundgren song, but I can't remember which song.. something from Runt, maybe. Or at least one of the first three albums.
	11:41am Andres: Anglo Cherie.
	♥ 11:41am Joe McG: I just realized that Bearsville must be one of Bob Brainen's all-time favorite labels!
	🎸 ♥ 11:42am Mike W: They always pull out the dB’s in the last half hour, saving the big hit(ter)s for the end
	11:43am Andres: I come across a fair amount of Bearsville 45s but not any of this good stuff. I am digging in thrift store bins though.
	🎸 ♥ 11:43am drr: "Like This" was one of the albums I gave to my kid brother when I went to college. I see it at his house from time to time and consider asking for it back, but it looks like it's gotten a lot of play over there.
	🎸 ♥ 11:43am McGroovey: I have a Randy Van Warmer album on Bearsville. It's good soft-pop. Nothing I've really felt like listening in the past 20 years. But I think Todd Rundgren and Ruger Powell are on it.
	♥ 11:45am dale: did p.i.l. borrow this? certainly sounds like it.
	🎸 ♥ 11:47am McGroovey: Deface the Music is one of the best records ever. Anyone who disagrees with me is just a total bozo.
	🎸 ♥ 11:48am James in ATL: I was hoping to hear FOGHAT!
	🎸 ♥ 11:48am Brian in UK: McGrovey, may I direct you to this show recently, at 1:47. wfmu.org...
	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Whadaya think - look tolerant of out of towners? : i.discogs.com...
	♥ 11:48am HyperDose: Foghat lives!
	11:49am TerrDE: NO!
	11:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sh*t. Sounds like Slade.
	♥ 11:49am Thin Slice: This was their opening song, right?
	11:49am Brendan: Quickly rummaging through my closet looking for my fog hat.
	11:50am Andres: Even better live!
	11:51am TerrDE: not that this is bad, just not as good as the other 999,999 times
	🎸 ♥ 11:51am luka: this is so educational
	🎸 ♥ 11:51am McGroovey: I spent many teenage hours playing air guitar to Foghat records. You did too, if you were born before 1970.
	♥ 11:51am listener james from westwood: This song is telling me to keep on truckin', and indeed I shall!
	🎸 ♥ 11:52am luka: i have one Bearsville album in my collection - A Woofer In Tweeter’s Clothing
	🎸 ♥ 11:52am McGroovey: I just realized I don't have enough Foghat records.
	♥ 11:53am Joe McG: Slow down, take it easy.
	♥ 11:53am cappy: Next up: Never Been Any Reason by Head East
	♥ 11:53am Rich in Washington: I have a couple of dear friends who would be very excited to learn there's a Bearsville but will be disappointed that it's just a record label.
	♥ 11:54am Joe McG: @cappy: Love that song!
	♥ 11:54am coelacanth∅: Rich it's a town in ny
	♥ 11:54am cappy: Never Been Any Reason not to!
	11:54am TerrDE: Was the Utopia tune right after the Fusion album/tour ? If so I caught it at the Tower in Philly. My friend was expecting Pyramids and Fusion and was bitterly disappointed by Beatle Suits and Pop tunes.
	11:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I do have some allergic reactions to mainstream 1970s~80s Chart Hits - but of that category always thot - well, Foghat's just a RawkBand.
	🎸 ♥ 11:55am LastWhiteRhino: I'm a Fool for the Foghat.
	🎸 ♥ 11:55am Handy Haversack: They are not taking it easy!
	🎸 ♥ 11:55am Webhamster Henry: The Bearsville Theatre was recently renovated by its new owners and is in a (hopefully) post-COVID booking phase. bearsvilletheater.com
	11:56am egould: At least one person walked out of the arena that night and thought, “That was the greatest concert ever performed.”
	♥ 11:56am Rich in Washington: @coelacanth∅: Where in NY, so I can tell my friends.
	11:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes there is the kind of Bear that say BobMould might tell us about. I'd bet their Ville wold be pretty kewl actually...
	11:57am Andres: A Susan Jacks tribute, Single File, a tour through Bearsville, and a bunch of stuff in between. And burning it down to close out! What a morning! Thank you, Joe!
	11:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...like Slade ...taking it easy.
	🎸 ♥ 11:57am McGroovey: The Utopia fusiony era was from '73 to early '76. Then the Utopia record started getting more pop.
	🎸 ♥ 11:57am Webhamster Henry: @Rich /Wash it's a few miles west of Woodstock.
	🎸 ♥ 11:58am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Joe. You can take the afternoon off for accordion practice for Friday!
	♥ 11:58am listener james from westwood: Thanks, Joe!!
	♥ 11:58am coelacanth∅: i have a foghat 8-track tape which i broke open (>40 years ago) took all but about 18 seconds worth of tape out of, turned the tape upside-down and put it back together. sounds better.
	♥ 11:58am chresti: Thanks Joe!

	9:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ♏︎Scorpio Brutha GeneClark ...Plant & Krauss a hard act to follow on this one...
	9:35am Brendan: @Mike W, that’s Iain . He added a vowel to avoid confusion with his name sake in King Crimson.
	♥ 9:36am Lixiviated Life: Ok hi again.
	9:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well '74 - they follow him..
	🎸 ♥ 9:39am Mike W: Brendan, that’s Ian (using the spelling from the cover of Journeys from Gospel Oak, which is where his version of “Polly” first appeared).
	9:42am Brendan: @Mike W right you are. I thought when he changed from Ian McDonald to Matthews, he changed the first name too, but apparently that was later.
	9:42am Brendan: MacDonald.

	9:44am olacle: Here for the Joe McG music, yet again! Moving houses on this brilliantly sunny day

	9:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @olacle: Moving - oof ! Grateful if the weather is good for it..
	9:48am Rock Ridge Chess Club: There is an echo of Joe on the mountain this morning, as I stream to devices at once. One of the roof where I'm working and another down in the basements where I'm making cuts and such. It's like a splash of Garbage Time in my Surface Noise. Cheers!
	9:49am Rock Ridge Chess Club: Let's hope my repairs are better than my spelling this morning.
	9:49am alan the painter: Yes great movie
	9:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: RRCC: Take care up there ! Nice avatar. ...Yeah, Judy Henske RIP as well.

	🎸 ♥ 9:58am Erin in TO: Never heard of The Poppy Family before, but this track is rocking my world
	♥ 9:59am Chop Scott: Good Morning Joe!
	10:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: With her husband Terry Jacks - of 'Seasons In the Sun' iirc. ...I thot blood was made in bone marrow ...science police...
	♥ 10:01am Joe McG: @Erin: Your fellow countrypeople! @Chop Scott: Wow, how are you, sir?
	🎸 ♥ 10:01am Erin in TO: @Joe this is why I love WFMU - exposes me to so much new stuff!
	🎸 ♥ 10:02am Erin in TO: New to me, I should say
	♥ 10:02am Chop Scott: I'm doing alright enough Joe!
	10:02am Andres: Good morning, Joe and all! CBC hipped me to The Poppy Family. I was immediately in the love her voice camp. RIP Susan Jacks.
	10:03am Brendan: I wish I wasn’t informed of the Terry Jacks connection. In the background of these beautiful songs I’m hearing an alternate track of that hideous Put The Bone In.
	♥ 10:05am Joe McG: @CS: Good to hear!
	♥ 10:05am dale: erin in toronto - they are candaian!!
	10:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not entirely unlike Linda Ronstadt on that - or a lot of Country vocalists. A kind of Classic Chart Radio Voice...
	♥ 10:06am dale: ...canadian even.
	🎸 ♥ 10:09am James in ATL: This Susan Jacks reminds me of Olivia Newton John. Beautiful voice.
	10:10am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just when you think she might be too girlish she steps on the gas just a bit & goes. Sits right in the center of several things! Was thinking Olivia - but actually stronger if I may say so.
	🎸 ♥ 10:11am dreamyandseedy: I first heard The Poppy Family on Sheila’s show. She played Beyond the Clouds! Just glorious!
	🎸 ♥ 10:16am Erin in TO: @dale always great to learn about another Canadian band! Even decades late
	♥ 10:16am Joe McG: The best one-stop shopping for the Poppy Family is a CD compilation called "A Good Thing Lost."
	10:16am dano59: There’s something about exposure to that classic 50s-60s country singing a la Dolly, Patsy & Lynn Anderson. Dusty started out in that style. Ronstadt & Olivia, noted.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18am Brian in UK: The Poppy Family/Susan Jacks never really got any traction over here. Apart from 'Billy'.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18am Erin in TO: @Joe thanks for the recommendation! Added it to my list of things to check out
	♥ 10:19am solo mon: Big poppy family fan! Maybe this is already discussed but Kurt Cobain used the guitar riff in the middle of poppy family’s “Evil Grows” as the basis for smells like teen spirit.
	10:20am dano59: Susanna Hoffs is a Capricorn & Susan J is on the cusp so some things are just meant to be for this Virgo
	♥ 10:21am Joe McG: Ah, Susanna, my goat sister!
	10:22am dano59: Oh sorry, that’s Judy Henske on the cusp
	10:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...♏︎Scorpio & ♑︎Cap is a thing too - but nevermind...
	10:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...looks like SusanJ was a late ⦿Sun in ♌︎Leo blondie...
	🎸 ♥ 10:26am Handy Haversack: Do what you want, Joe! You're driving the bus!
	10:26am dano59: I have scorpion competition? dagnabbit
	10:27am eva: good morning!
	10:27am rx scabin: Good morning, Joe and Everyone.
	10:28am dano59: Glad you don’t have heinous DMCA restrictions on your archives, Joe. That SJ set was sublime
	🎸 ♥ 10:29am Webhamster Henry: WFMU - your place for Autoharp! Put on some Bermuda Triangle!
	10:30am dano59: Or the 18th Day of May! Madrigal Rock for all!
	10:31am Brendan: My name is Brendan. I’m a Scorpio and I like long walks on the beach with Susanna Hoffs.
	♥ 10:32am Joe McG: @dano: Glad you enjoyed! @Brendan: I'm a Capricorn and I like warm nights in front of the fire with Susanna Hoffs.
	🎸 ♥ 10:33am Mike Sin: Enjoying your show on this rainy morning! Hi Joe McG!
	10:33am Zippy: Where did Ken move to ?
	🎸 ♥ 10:33am drr: Let me introduce myself. My name is Little Sonny. I drive a little red Volkswagen. I like to go horse-back riding. I like all kind of sweets. Cupcakes, currants, and things like that. This is why I can't help from noticing you.
	10:33am herb.nyc: really enjoyed the SUSAN JACKS songs. thanx!
	10:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I'm a Scorpio & I like rapid walks to the fire dept. after being set on fire by Susanna Hoffs...
	♥ 10:34am Joe McG: Mike Sin! Thanks for tunin' in! (also rhymes)
	🎸 ♥ 10:34am Webhamster Henry: Joe McG is like the librarian who makes those cool little thematic book displays.
	🎸 ♥ 10:34am drr: Not currants, crumpets! That's very important.
	10:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...which after all is more Bangles for yer buck...
	10:35am bradford: old school Howard Stern bed music!
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Where are you on currants in crumpets?
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this is a deal breaker...
	🎸 ♥ 10:36am drr: sounds pretty acceptable to me, but I like all kinds of sweets.
	♥ 10:36am Joe McG: @Henry: Jeez, my dream job.
	10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...in that case the position is yours. We have Tea @ 3...
	10:39am Gerry from Miami: This Lonnie Mack version of "Memphis" was a Top Ten single hit here in south Florida when I was a strapping young lad.
	🎸 ♥ 10:39am Brian in UK: Joe, contact the currantly! unabled Carol Crow, she might be able to help.
	🎸 ♥ 10:39am Son Of Pantz: Klezmer it up!
	🎸 ♥ 10:40am Handy Haversack: Knish kitsch.
	🎸 ♥ 10:40am JeremyB: Oh my! I have to play[ this for my dad!
	♥ 10:40am Joe McG: @Brian: Poor Carol, I hope she heals up soon.
	10:41am Dan: Haven't heard this song in decades! Not since Dr. Dimento.
	🎸 ♥ 10:41am YETI BOB: Was already thinking that I wanted a bagel&lox plate today. This clinches it.
	10:41am rx scabin: Clever.

	10:42am dano59: Now, this is why the Brooklyn Diner needs to be a national chain
	10:43am Gerry from Miami: I really miss Doctor D! Is his weekly radio show still being syndicated?
	♥ 10:43am chresti: Hi Joe and surfies!
	🎸 ♥ 10:45am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo. Shaking off the cobwebs, great set so far!
	10:45am lazy pierogi: <33333333
	🎸 ♥ 10:45am Webhamster Henry: @Gerry: drdemento.com. But if you like Novelties, WFMU's own KBC has a podcast: wfmu.org...
	🎸 ♥ 10:48am G: @Gerry: wiki article on Doc D says: "The online show follows a format similar to that of the terrestrial show; no longer being limited by a radio time slot or commercial breaks, the show usually exceeds two hours and may include "bonus tracks" at the end of the show. The weekly "Funny Five" has been replaced by a monthly Top Ten in order to allow for more comprehensive special topic segments. The new format, along with the ability to play records that previously would have been censored on the radio, has allowed Hansen to delve more deeply into his collection than was possible on the syndicated radio show." -- Much more detail available at the wiki article.
	🎸 ♥ 10:50am Handy Haversack: Morning, chresti, 3Moons!
	♥ 10:50am chresti: I the Warm guy's voice!
	♥ 10:56am coelacanth∅: hey this sounds like the nj song Alan plays in his show!
	10:57am Gerry from Miami: JOE, I remember buying the original version on a 45 of "How Glad I Am" by Nancy Wilson. She ended up marrying some super-rich Dduke or prince from some European country and they lived only about 5 or 6 miles away from me on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in south Los Angeles County. Fancy that! Nancy was one great singer! Straddled both jazz and pop.
	10:59am Cancelled Willy: Thanks for those speedy 45s DJ Surface Noise with Joe McGasko.
	10:59am Gerry from Miami: @G. Thanks a million for the skinny on Dr. Demento. I will search out that broadcast source, for sure.
	🎸 ♥ 11:03am McGroovey: "Warm" is such a lukewarm name. Smith: I bought a Smith record last year because it was $1, and I liked the cover.
	🎸 ♥ 11:03am Handy Haversack: I couldn't make it from Brooklyn on Sat., but the reports I got from Ken from Hyde Park and Doug in MP were of a great success!
	🎸 ♥ 11:03am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @Joe McG - I thought Perry Metzger was supposed to be on Techtonic tonight?
	11:03am Cancelled Willy: Would be great to hear Goddamn Dave Hill again
	🎸 ♥ 11:03am JeremyB: God Dammned Dave Hill! Amazing!
	11:04am herb.nyc: yay, dave hill!
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am Marley P. Dogg: “I don’t know - she died” hahahha
	🎸 ♥ 11:05am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH Thanks again for a great show Saturday with K8!
	11:05am herb.nyc: @mcgroovey - nice to meet you on thursday, during LINDA LINDAS. thx for letting my friend matt in. he'd like to get in touch. best way?
	🎸 ♥ 11:06am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Aaah, Perry Metzger is on the 16th. Still, tonight's show should be interesting!
	🎸 ♥ 11:07am Handy Haversack: Mama Tried is a fine, fine place! That Paul Bruno / Nate K / TomDash thing will be fantastic. Wish I could go ...
	🎸 ♥ 11:07am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @Webhamster thanks for info! Will grok.
	🎸 ♥ 11:09am Handy Haversack: SPOX
	🎸 ♥ 11:11am McGroovey: @herb.nyc contact me through my WFMU profile, and I'll send you my email address.
	🎸 ♥ 11:11am Erin in TO: Always a delight to hear Sparks on the air
	11:12am Zephyr: Bearsville homage: great idea & close to my heart as a Todd worshipper. Interest footnote is the tangled Todd and Laura Nyro saga. A bit of a tragic soap opera. She was his muse and inspiration but when they tried to work together it was not a good result…
	🎸 ♥ 11:12am Webhamster Henry: Ahh the Bearsville set I suggested ....
	🎸 ♥ 11:12am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH Never been to Mama Tried...so many new little venues!
	🎸 ♥ 11:12am Webhamster Henry: I don't live too far from Bearsville.
	🎸 ♥ 11:13am YETI BOB: Shades of "Benny and the Jets"?
	11:13am herb.nyc: @mcgroovey, gotcha. / joe said jesse winchester; i saw him perform at Joe's Pube by astor place. showed something to his wife at merch table and she laughed.
	11:13am Zephyr: BTW, I donate to the station so please teach me how to get my name to reflect thus. Signed, Zephyr the Luddite
	♥ 11:14am Joe McG: He would later write hits for Journey and get culty, this Jonathan.
	11:16am Zephyr: If your last name is “Cain” you’re obliged to get culty…
	🎸 ♥ 11:17am drr: This Bobby Charles record maintains a level of calmness and relaxation I wouldn't have thought possible. It actually makes me kind of nervous to listen to it.
	♥ 11:18am Joe McG: @Zephyr: Can you send me an e-mail after the show? jmcgasko@wfmu.org. I'll get you sorted.
	🎸 ♥ 11:18am McGroovey: @Zephyr you need to create a user profile (or sign in here using your profile login, if you already have a profile).
	🎸 ♥ 11:18am Webhamster Henry: @Zephyr if you are using the app, you are out of luck, but if you are on the website and have a WFMU Friendship Society account, "sign in" at the top right of the screen. If not, you an register and Join The Society!
	🎸 ♥ 11:19am Handy Haversack: Threemoons, it's on the R, though quite a few stops away!
	11:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Zephyr interesting re Todd & LauraNyro.
	♥ 11:19am coelacanth∅: (click link at the top says "register")
	🎸 ♥ 11:20am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH gotta check it out!
	🎸 ♥ 11:20am drr: And, yes, it's the same Bobby Charles who did "See You Later Alligator" (and "Take It Easy, Greasy (Cause You Got A Long Way To Slide)".
	🎸 ♥ 11:21am McGroovey: My favorite Bearsville acts (aside Todd Rundgren) were Elizabeth Barraclough and Foghat. (Are those spoilers?)
	🎸 ♥ 11:21am drr: re: Jonathan Cain: he was also in the Babys with John Waite (I think that's how Journey found him, The Babys were their opening act for a while).
	🎸 ♥ 11:25am McGroovey: Oh. And the dB's. I forgot they were on Bearsville.
	♥ 11:26am Ryansterlingvirtue: great show today
	♥ 11:27am Joe McG: @Ryansv: Glad you're enjoying the trip to Bearsville!
	11:29am Zephyr: Todd is Godd
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am McGroovey: Thanks for NOT playing one of the hits from Something/Anything yet again again, Joe!
	11:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So ...do the residents of Bearsville shun outsiders ...or, are they generally welcome ...perhaps even for big fuzzy hugs ?? Asking for friend.
	11:30am rx scabin: Thanks for the nice program, Joe. Good bye, Everyone.
	♥ 11:31am coelacanth∅: Zephyr i think todd would agree
	11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...honestly I'm looking for places to take Susanna later ...after our minor domestic dispute...
	♥ 11:34am Joe McG: @RR63: You might find her on Mary Street.
	11:34am NYsoul living in another place: Great music Joe! Making my Monday so happy. Thank you for playing Todd R!! 💜💜💜
	♥ 11:36am Joe McG: Glad you're enjoying!
	🎸 ♥ 11:36am James in ATL: So great to hear NRBQ! Thanks for a great show, Joe!
	🎸 ♥ 11:37am Son Of Pantz: Louisville Legends!
	🎸 ♥ 11:37am Brian in UK: Joe, interesting label. Is there any autoharp on Bearsville?
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You call that in the Break what - tack piano? Sounds almost like hammered dulcimer...
	♥ 11:38am Joe McG: @Brian: Not much, alas!
	🎸 ♥ 11:39am McGroovey: I have an autoharp sound in my head from a Todd Rundgren song, but I can't remember which song.. something from Runt, maybe. Or at least one of the first three albums.
	11:41am Andres: Anglo Cherie.
	♥ 11:41am Joe McG: I just realized that Bearsville must be one of Bob Brainen's all-time favorite labels!
	🎸 ♥ 11:42am Mike W: They always pull out the dB’s in the last half hour, saving the big hit(ter)s for the end
	11:43am Andres: I come across a fair amount of Bearsville 45s but not any of this good stuff. I am digging in thrift store bins though.
	🎸 ♥ 11:43am drr: "Like This" was one of the albums I gave to my kid brother when I went to college. I see it at his house from time to time and consider asking for it back, but it looks like it's gotten a lot of play over there.
	🎸 ♥ 11:43am McGroovey: I have a Randy Van Warmer album on Bearsville. It's good soft-pop. Nothing I've really felt like listening in the past 20 years. But I think Todd Rundgren and Ruger Powell are on it.
	♥ 11:45am dale: did p.i.l. borrow this? certainly sounds like it.
	🎸 ♥ 11:47am McGroovey: Deface the Music is one of the best records ever. Anyone who disagrees with me is just a total bozo.
	🎸 ♥ 11:48am James in ATL: I was hoping to hear FOGHAT!
	🎸 ♥ 11:48am Brian in UK: McGrovey, may I direct you to this show recently, at 1:47. wfmu.org...
	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Whadaya think - look tolerant of out of towners? : i.discogs.com...
	♥ 11:48am HyperDose: Foghat lives!
	11:49am TerrDE: NO!
	11:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sh*t. Sounds like Slade.
	♥ 11:49am Thin Slice: This was their opening song, right?
	11:49am Brendan: Quickly rummaging through my closet looking for my fog hat.
	11:50am Andres: Even better live!
	11:51am TerrDE: not that this is bad, just not as good as the other 999,999 times
	🎸 ♥ 11:51am luka: this is so educational
	🎸 ♥ 11:51am McGroovey: I spent many teenage hours playing air guitar to Foghat records. You did too, if you were born before 1970.
	♥ 11:51am listener james from westwood: This song is telling me to keep on truckin', and indeed I shall!
	🎸 ♥ 11:52am luka: i have one Bearsville album in my collection - A Woofer In Tweeter’s Clothing
	🎸 ♥ 11:52am McGroovey: I just realized I don't have enough Foghat records.
	♥ 11:53am Joe McG: Slow down, take it easy.
	♥ 11:53am cappy: Next up: Never Been Any Reason by Head East
	♥ 11:53am Rich in Washington: I have a couple of dear friends who would be very excited to learn there's a Bearsville but will be disappointed that it's just a record label.
	♥ 11:54am Joe McG: @cappy: Love that song!
	♥ 11:54am coelacanth∅: Rich it's a town in ny
	♥ 11:54am cappy: Never Been Any Reason not to!
	11:54am TerrDE: Was the Utopia tune right after the Fusion album/tour ? If so I caught it at the Tower in Philly. My friend was expecting Pyramids and Fusion and was bitterly disappointed by Beatle Suits and Pop tunes.
	11:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I do have some allergic reactions to mainstream 1970s~80s Chart Hits - but of that category always thot - well, Foghat's just a RawkBand.
	🎸 ♥ 11:55am LastWhiteRhino: I'm a Fool for the Foghat.
	🎸 ♥ 11:55am Handy Haversack: They are not taking it easy!
	🎸 ♥ 11:55am Webhamster Henry: The Bearsville Theatre was recently renovated by its new owners and is in a (hopefully) post-COVID booking phase. bearsvilletheater.com
	11:56am egould: At least one person walked out of the arena that night and thought, “That was the greatest concert ever performed.”
	♥ 11:56am Rich in Washington: @coelacanth∅: Where in NY, so I can tell my friends.
	11:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes there is the kind of Bear that say BobMould might tell us about. I'd bet their Ville wold be pretty kewl actually...
	11:57am Andres: A Susan Jacks tribute, Single File, a tour through Bearsville, and a bunch of stuff in between. And burning it down to close out! What a morning! Thank you, Joe!
	11:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...like Slade ...taking it easy.
	🎸 ♥ 11:57am McGroovey: The Utopia fusiony era was from '73 to early '76. Then the Utopia record started getting more pop.
	🎸 ♥ 11:57am Webhamster Henry: @Rich /Wash it's a few miles west of Woodstock.
	🎸 ♥ 11:58am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Joe. You can take the afternoon off for accordion practice for Friday!
	♥ 11:58am listener james from westwood: Thanks, Joe!!
	♥ 11:58am coelacanth∅: i have a foghat 8-track tape which i broke open (>40 years ago) took all but about 18 seconds worth of tape out of, turned the tape upside-down and put it back together. sounds better.
	♥ 11:58am chresti: Thanks Joe!
	🎸 ♥ 11:58am Handy Haversack: Dang, that was a fast three hours. Many thanks, Joe!
	11:58am TerrDE: thanks Joe.....Goodbye Joe, Hello Joe
	♥ 11:59am Phillippe: Thanks Joe!
	11:59am Brendan: Thanks Joe .
	🎸 ♥ 11:59am McGroovey: Is Pam Window related to Gary Windo? I assume so. Gary did stuff with Todd and probably with other Bearsville people.
	♥ 12:00pm coelacanth∅: Rich it's in the same county i live in, ulster, but i don't know exactly! i'll have to guess it's northwest of new paltz -?...i bet Webhamster Henry knows!
	♥ 12:01pm coelacanth∅: d'oh! (Henry @1157)
	♥ 12:01pm HyperDose: Thanks Joe!

	🎸 ♥ 12:03pm Webhamster Henry: @yep just run up Rt 28, go up 375 (Levon Helm Boulevard), go west on Tinker St through the center of Woodstock and keep going. I used to go there a lot taking my kids to art class (and theatre classes) , and I've played in the theatre lobby a few times.
	12:03pm TerrDE: Hello, Joe...Goodbye Joe
	12:57pm ?: Felix Cavaliere (Rascals) put out two LP's on Bearsville as well. '74 & '75
