	👻 9:05am Webhamster Henry: You are all dancing around like Kevin Bacon.
	9:05am G: Someone get the Mark Hurst connection here?
	👻 9:05am Yetz: Just wondering - those little snippets of music in the Yip Yips opening - did they come from somewhere, or did the Sesame Streep producers write those for the bit? Must have been fun, "we need 5 seconds of rock-n-roll".
	9:06am trailrunnah: Thanks for posting the internet..
	👻 9:07am Marley P. Dogg: Let’s hear it for the yips! Pledge!
	9:07am Asheville Jon: ugh. i had to live through the eighties once already
	9:08am The Oscar: Mornin' Joe! If you're doing dedications, I've got a number I'd like to send out to a little dog named Snuggles.
	👻 9:08am Yetz: sorry, just hit the switch. i'll be back in a bit.
	9:08am PKNY: This Styx song has strong "play during ending credits of an 80's teen coming of age movie" vibe
	9:08am Rich from Wading River: Not sure how I feel about this Styx-as-Sparks song.
	9:08am Tinley Park Randy: Wow. I already hate Styx. Now I really hate them. This is horrific!
	9:08am WoodsOfMaine: Wow, this Styx tune hit the charts?? A studio track on a live album. Bizarre.
	9:08am TerrDE: did some main member lesve and this was the result ?
	9:09am The Oscar: Starx.
	9:09am Brendan: Good morning Joe. Did you even go to sleep last night? Holy cow this is high energy.
	9:09am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: @PKNY kinda feels like we might be able to drum up a plot abstract in just the space of this Styx song
	👻 9:09am Brooklyn Clay: Is this Joe’s AT40 ’84 emergency bathroom break tape?
	9:10am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: Did Joe get his hands on some of those GAP ’80s in-store cassettes??
	9:10am PaulRobeson1922: W F M U
	9:10am Buckaroo: Wow, this has been a fantastic reminder that top 40 radio in the mid-80s was a sterile wasteland.
	9:11am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: W F M U ... lite!!!
	9:11am Erin in TO: I did not expect to hear Casey Casem this morning
	9:11am B R M: I'm loving this ... absolute flashbacks
	9:11am Gary: Ha. Yesterday I was driving back from Halifax and the radio was playing a Casey Casem 70s look back
	9:11am Asheville Jon: i'm not sure whether to laugh along with this set, or to go get my sledge hammer and start smashing things
	9:12am G: Steven Spielberg presents... Gremlins! haha
	9:12am The Butterman: Let’s hear it for the Joe. Styxx? Let’s never hear that again.
	9:12am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: chat board so far is proof of how we’d follow Joe McG just about anywhere
	9:12am WoodsOfMaine: Kinda funny. That Styx tune DID sound like Sparks. Except that Sparks is revered and Styx is hated.
	9:13am NewWilOrder: You never see Casey Kasem and Regis Philbin in the same place at the same time.
	9:13am Asheville Jon: next we need a Bob Evans restaurant commercial
	9:13am TerrDE: oh, the first one wasn't Whitney Houston. Her voice was missing that non harmonic overtone
	9:13am Tinley Park Randy: This is tolerable
	9:13am B R M: son: "Dad, why do you have all of these weird records from the 80's?" Me: Sweeping hand gesture toward Surface Noise 10/3/22
	9:13am Tinley Park Randy: 1984.
	9:13am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: careful Woods, you’re perilously close to unlocking the secret of WFMU
	9:13am Krys O.: Dan Hartman was in the Edgar Winter Group and is featured on Frankenstein.
	9:13am Erin in TO: I feel like I'm 12, listening to the local pop station for the countdown on the weekend
	9:14am G: 1984... And Reagan was about to win re-election in a landslide haha
	👻 9:14am SeaCreature: This was bad enough the first time around
	9:14am TerrDE: I remembered the 80s having great singles. I was cherry picking.
	9:14am Harry Corvair: Streets of Fire, not bad!
	👻 9:14am Brooklyn Clay: This set doesn't exactly have me reaching for my wallet
	9:14am Asheville Jon: so far, everything played so far guaranteed that i instantly turned the radio station when it was played back then
	9:14am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: Krys I wonder how many other working musicians from the ’70s had one-hits in the ’80s (apologies to the legions of Dan Hartman fans if he had another hit)
	👻 9:14am Marley P. Dogg: Just had to look at the calendar to make sure it’s not April 1st
	👻 9:15am yerfriendpaul: Hey Joe! I’m enjoying this excursion. Junior year of high school. I was probably experimenting with mousse
	9:15am Erin in TO: This set has me thinking there will never be enough money in my wallet to support this station like it deserves
	9:15am Dan_In_Baltimore: <MADMAX> MEDIOCRE! </>
	9:16am The Oscar: Say what you will about the music, but going to the movies and being able to choose between Streets of Fire and Gremlins sounds pretty alright.
	9:16am Krys O.: Eric Carmen had Hungry Eyes from the Dirty Dancing soundtrack.
	9:16am Krys O.: Giggle!
	👻 9:16am Marley P. Dogg: Viva vida Sassoon Paul
	9:17am TerrDE: Obsession, She Blinded Me w Science, Mexican Radio there were good ones
	9:17am Droog: Loving this, I'll take 80s trash pop over the stuff on mainstream radio these days.
	9:17am Susan: You there Joe???
	9:17am char: Surprise sets like this break up the monotonous drudgery of existence...even if you weren't exactly dying to hear these cuts.
	9:17am Robm: This show is interesting today
	9:17am TerrDE: this ones at least ok
	9:17am Destroit: This is so great. I could listen to McG throw down kasem top 40 resets, old commercials, 70’s country tracks and wedding present songs for days…..
	9:17am Krys O.: Man, this reminds me so much of working in a record store at the time.
	9:18am Erin in TO: I'm honestly loving this
	👻 9:18am LastWhiteRhino: Icicle Works was known as Water Works before the Ice Age.
	9:18am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: this one was considered new wave for sure just waiting on Big frickn Country and/or the Alarm
	9:18am The Oscar: There's a very '90s cover of this one over the end credits of Scream-- not sure I knew it was a cover!
	9:18am Joe McG: Good morning, everyone, I hope you are enjoying some radio from June 2, 1984. Thanks to Mark for the 3-LP set of the great Casey Kasem. The letter U and the numeral 2, everyone!
	👻 9:18am yerfriendpaul: I saw Icicle Works open for David Gilmour in Hartford that year! The lunkhead Floyd fans booed them. I felt bad for them
	9:19am NewWilOrder: Save Ferris!
	👻 9:20am tadpoles: Yes....Casey Kasem was heard around the world. And Brian Matthew did it for us from Britain.
	9:20am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: @yerfriendpaul I had front-row for U2 in 1983 in Cleveland and Lone Justice opened — overly harsh response from U2 diehards
	9:20am TerrDE: Screwball comedys returned
	9:20am TerrDE: Use bleach it kills Covid too
	9:20am WoodsOfMaine: @Mike W: Gees, that first Lone Justice record was killer! Snobs.
	9:21am B R M: @Joe McG - are you saying this is an LP
	9:21am Droog: Benzoil peroxide!
	9:21am Andres: Did Ken sell the station?
	👻 9:21am Yetz: during this period i was taking refuge in Pere Ubu and stuff like that
	9:21am D Rok: This is fantastic.
	9:21am Asheville Jon: this howard jones is mediocreably somewhat tolerable
	9:21am Strandlund: Are we doing the time warp again..?
	9:21am TerrDE: gate those drums
	9:22am TonyR: @Andres: Turns out the parking lot was worth more.
	9:22am Harry Corvair: Was that .. Euneeda Bodenheim shilling an acne treatment?
	9:22am Krys O.: @Yetz: I sought refuge in WFMU back then. Music at my job was wholly other.
	👻 9:22am yerfriendpaul: Definitely had to use Oxy for the zits of the 80s
	9:23am NewWilOrder: You never see Howard Jones and Thomas Dolby in the same place at the same time.
	9:23am Joe McG: @BRM: Yes, I'm playing from a vinyl record. Side 1A!
	9:23am TerrDE: my Flangers broken can I use 2 Choruses instead ?
	9:23am Krys O.: We had MTV playing non-stop at the record store too.
	9:24am WoodsOfMaine: What is Love? produced by Rupert Hine. Dang, this is fun.
	9:24am PKNY: Donate to the Hellraiser, or the ghost of Casey Kasem is taking over full time!
	👻 9:24am yerfriendpaul: I have a found photograph collection. One of them is a nose-bleed-view of a Howard Jones concert
	9:24am common: i remember this summer
	9:25am Krys O.: Ooh, nice, Paul!
	9:25am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: women making hit songs?! balderdash!
	9:25am TVP: "The world's oldest profession" = She made an album about hunting/gathering?
	9:25am Folksnake: @NewWil oh man I just realized I've been conflating them for years
	9:25am TerrDE: Combat Zone
	9:25am Rich in Washington: I keep expecting Casey to lose it at any minute....
	9:25am Erin in TO: @TVP not gonna lie, I'd wanna listen to that album
	9:26am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: @NewWilOrder that’s because Thomas Dolby is a decent fellow and Howard Jones is a prick
	9:26am Krys O.: @Rich: Of course he did, but it was on the cutting room floor.
	9:26am Joe McG: Hey, I just watched the ZZ Top documentary. Pretty fun!
	👻 9:26am Karl Ward: ZZ Top is the one true religion of Texas
	👻 9:26am yerfriendpaul: Joe McG - it is good!
	9:26am Asheville Jon: oh no. i found the list of songs on this countown. we are doomed
	👻 9:26am DjLorraine: Legs! Goodmorning Joe and all
	👻 9:26am Karl Ward: I'm going to see ZZ Top in a couple weeks!
	👻 9:26am Marley P. Dogg: Secretly hoping all six sides get played! That ZZ Top documentary was great - a lot I didn’t know about them
	9:27am WoodsOfMaine: @Joe McG: That _was_ fun. I loved watching them play. Man, they were locked in!
	👻 9:27am Yetz: AA Bottom
	9:27am TerrDE: unlike actual fans, i prefer these hits. Sharp Dressed Man kills
	9:27am Joe McG: @karl: Wow, jealous!
	👻 9:27am Yetz: Krys O: Yeah, lots of WFMU. That's where I heard the Ubu.
	9:28am berkshires matty: will Casey bleep the s word?
	9:28am Bernardo: Casey Cassum guest hosting on WFMU? Wow we’re really on the map now.
	9:28am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: I know we are purportedly being exposed to multiple songs, but I think the playlist should be amended so that this is all one entry
	9:29am TonyR: I didn't even know he was dead.
	9:29am Asheville Jon: brace yourself folks, the next one is a doozie!
	9:29am TonyR: No fair peeking!!
	9:29am berkshires matty: yay
	9:29am Handy Haversack: Well! Apparently, everyone else knew there was no internet at the office, but I got to spend an hour listening to WAB over the office boombox before someone thought to let me know. I hear this show is also from the pre-internet era? Morning, Joe and all!
	9:29am nathan: cutting off the Legs outro is the perfect encapsulation of everything wrong with commercial radio
	9:30am TonyR: Rod in the 80s? I'm gonna say "Lost in You".
	👻 9:30am yerfriendpaul: My guess is Young Turks
	9:30am BillyLundun: Do you have the max factor?
	👻 9:30am Yetz: ah I can breathe again
	👻 9:30am yerfriendpaul: Or Infatuation
	9:30am Lord Jimz: max factor
	👻 9:30am LastWhiteRhino: Maxie...wasn't that the eye shadow you used to use, Joe?
	9:31am The Oscar: Just realized I watched a Siskel & Ebert episode from September 1984 on YouTube this morning. Am I unstuck in time?
	9:31am Droog: Noooooo we need to know what the next one was gonna be
	9:31am NewWilOrder: Stay tuned after Casey Kasem for the Wolfman Jack Show.
	9:31am Asheville Jon: whew for those that want to know, the date list was from June 2, 1984
	9:31am Andres: Did I miss the long distance dedication?
	👻 9:31am yerfriendpaul: Thanks Joe - I enjoyed that
	👻 9:32am Webhamster Henry: Clay Pigeon can follow Casey Kasem
	9:32am Asheville Jon: he's still alive in our hearts Joe
	👻 9:32am Yetz: he was the voice of Shaggy in Scooby-Doo
	9:32am steveo: Missed Styx 😭😭😭
	9:32am Andres: Items from his estate were auctioned off this past year.
	9:32am Roberto: I guess there were no GODDAM DEAD DOG dedications in that set.
	9:33am Destroit: Shout out to Detroit haha WJLB
	👻 9:34am yerfriendpaul: Joe, can you give a dedication to my childhood dead dog, Harrigan?
	👻 9:35am John L: Casey Kasem also co-starred in The Incredible 2-Headed Transplant, in 1971. Not Bruce Dern's finest work.
	9:35am PKNY: They replay the 70s Casey AT40 countdowns on the Sirius 70s channel on the weekends, not sure if they do the 80s ones on the 80s channel
	9:35am Rich in Washington: Casey had a small part in the wonderful Incredible Two Headed Transplant with Bruce Dern.
	9:35am PaulRobeson1922: Yeah! A full day worth of dog dedications!
	9:36am Asheville Jon: makes me feel like i'm chewing on a mouth full of aluminum foil
	9:36am Rich in Washington: OH jinx, John L.! I didn't see your comment because I'm on my dumbphone
	9:36am PKNY: @Rich - so there was another 70s movie based on a person with two heads? en.wikipedia.org...
	9:37am berkshires matty: June of '84 is when I took up smoking. kept it up for 14 years!
	9:37am dale: casey was robin on superfriends too, no? ted knight did the opening voiceover. these shows are on the 70s on 7 channel on sirius on sunday morning.
	9:38am morphe': Thanks Joe McG .. got to go ...
	👻 9:38am Brian in UK: Hey Joe.
	9:39am WoodsOfMaine: We don't play top 40 music except for when it comes from an acceptable source (*cough* Sparks *cough*)
	9:39am The Oscar: I wish WFMU hits made American Top 40, if only so we could hear Casey Kasem read the phrase "With a Beaker on the Burner and an Otter in the Oven."
	9:39am Rich from Wading River: Today you have Scott Shannon really trying to sound like Casey Kasem doing a top 40 shopper. He tries way too hard
	👻 9:39am yerfriendpaul: My friend Ned in college loved EBTG
	9:39am Joe McG: @Oscar: Ha ha ha! We can dream.
	👻 9:40am Brian in UK: Joe, you will be playing Marine Girls next!!
	9:40am B R M: Anyone read the Tracey Thorn memoirs? on my ever lengthening list...
	9:41am Andres: In high school I had a job for a few days helping the local AM station finish moving into their new studios/office. There were a couple trailer fulls of records that we took to the dump.
	9:41am Erin in TO: Surely somewhere on the internet there's an engine you can plug text into to have read in Casey Casem's voice?
	9:42am steveo: I didn't know about Shaggy -- wow!
	9:43am Rich from Wading River: Of course, who can forget Casey’s dead dog dedication - “ponderous!”
	👻 9:44am Yetz: apropos of nothing I saw guitarist Paolo Angeli last night and it was mind-blowingly brilliant.
	9:44am Firepitmama: My 15 year old LOVES Everything But the Girl!
	9:45am Joe McG: @Firepitmama: Cool kid! But be careful of those sad breakup songs!
	9:46am Roberto: Firepitmama, why doesn't he/she/they love the girl? :P
	👻 9:46am hollow: that was a very sweet song
	9:48am Joe McG: @Erin: That sounds like an amazing idea. I'm sure AI is on that so Casey can return to announce the current Top 40 (shiver).
	9:48am WoodsOfMaine: @Yetz: Never heard of him...but just looked. Wow. Dude's doing kind of what Metheny did on Orchestrion but on a single instrument!
	👻 9:48am tadpoles: #Brian in UK....and maybe some Weekend? (The Welsh band of course)
	9:49am PKNY: I read something recently where all future Darth Vader voice stuff in Star Wars-related projects will be generated from Jame Earl Jones' existing voice recordings. So why not the same with Casey?
	9:49am Erin in TO: @Joe I figure with all the voice modifications they do with mashups, and everything they can do with deep fakes, combined with how many recordings of Casey exist, it can't even be that hard
	👻 9:51am Brian in UK: tadpoles we are aging ourselves here!!
	9:52am Joe McG: Yes, it could be soon that no broadcaster ever dies. Orson Welles will be back to read the weather.
	9:52am Handy Haversack: Erin in TO, it sounds like a good Dinner at Andy's theme: call in and get Ken and Andy to repeat what you say in their best Casem. Then we monetize it!
	9:52am rx scabin: Good morning.
	9:52am Hörer Christoph: This is nice!
	9:53am Brendan: No offense to Mr. Kasem, but this gets it done for me in the morning.
	👻 9:54am Karl Ward: Hypothetically, has anyone ever trained AI voice models of Ken and Andy, and then applied those models to generate vocals for Britney Spears songs?
	9:55am The Oscar: @PKNY I think they should digitally recreate Casey Kasem's voice for all future Darth Vader appearances.
	9:55am Erin in TO: @Handy We can get listeners to vote on who did the better impression, and the loser donates to the station
	9:55am Handy Haversack: Is there something you need to tell us, karlward? Also: Eliza Carthy article in the Guardian today (one of the better URLs I can remember lately): www.theguardian.com...
	9:55am Brendan: Anyone else pick up on the similarity ? Green Grass of Tunnel (Mum)
	9:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Speed Racer & Robin y'all : 2.bp.blogspot.com... ...so they can be sampled too ...helll I bet Vicki Bennett could do it..
	👻 9:57am Ken From Hyde Park: In the future, your car's audio will speak in the voice of Jar Jar Binks, but you have the option to pay extra each month to subscribe to Casey or James E.J.
	9:58am Joe McG: @karl: Don't give them ideas!
	9:58am Kelly Jones: Good Morning Joe. Orson Welles is one of my celebrity crushes.
	9:59am Brendan: The dog is dead, and Casey Kasem is dead and I’m not feeling too good myself. New song I’m working on.…
	9:59am Joe McG: @Kelly: Can't say I blame you! Listen to that voice!
	10:02am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Scooby too ? RuhRo.
	👻 10:02am yerfriendpaul: Rev Rabbit - ha ha!
	👻 10:04am Karl Ward: I was surprised how closely this stayed to the original
	10:06am katharsis: Hello Joe and all
	10:06am Son Of Pantz: Good Monday!
	10:08am Brendan: The Third Man was a fine piece of acting but Orson really showed his chops in the 70’s commercials. Who can forget the ad for frozen peas? Or Paul Masson - “we will sell no wine before it’s time“ (looks at his watch - “it’s time”).
	10:09am Son Of Pantz: A Touch Of Evil was Orson's finest performance.
	10:10am pot8o: still figuring out how to put emphasis on "in" and "beef" to this day
	10:11am WoodsOfMaine: Lloyd Maines. I think he's Natalie Maines dad. That was a fine record right there.
	10:11am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Orson was on talk shows enuff ...yeah lotsa samples.
	👻 10:12am Brian in UK: The antidote to Satanic Majesties?
	10:13am WoodsOfMaine: I used to confuse Orson Welles with Sebastian Cabot.
	10:16am Joe McG: @Woods: Also a fine-voiced gentleman!
	10:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Donovan song.
	10:18am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ProtoDisco...
	10:19am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: makes me think the Aislers Set had to have known this little gem
	10:22am johnk77: lloyd maines taught songwriting and also performed at the taos, nm big barn dance
	10:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Robin Trower off the leash half a minute...
	👻 10:28am yerfriendpaul: You’ve played Styx and Stones today, Joe
	10:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...JoeMcG would rather do that than say hurtful words...
	10:32am JetBoy now of Astoria: Hi all! Yeah I took Japanese for 3 years before covid, it’s mostly gone now. I can say I’m genki today! Genki ka, my friends?
	10:33am Sean in Bristol UK: Good afternoon Joe
	10:33am Handy Haversack: Genki desu, JetBoy!
	10:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dave Dee Dozy Mick Tich ...oh I left out Beaky. ...Yeah. Never.
	10:34am The Oscar: Every time I hear a Davy Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich song I think "I really need to listen to more Davy Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich."
	10:34am Phillippe: love these guys. Saw them in a movie, the title of which escapes me
	10:35am Son Of Pantz: I like the Davy Dee, Beaky and Tich but hold the Dozy, please.
	10:35am Joe McG: I like when they go "MWAH!"
	10:37am Phillippe: Love this Aztec Camera too.
	10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...tho DDDBMT do make me think of Tarantino's GrindHouse ...which was more violence than I bargained for to see RoseMcG. I discovered this Genki soda : cdn.shopify.com...
	10:37am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: Roddy!
	👻 10:37am tadpoles: The whip as an instrument in "Legend of Xanadu"! Oi!
	10:38am Joe McG: @Oscar: They have so much variety in their stuff. I think it's the dopey name that keeps people away.
	10:39am WoodsOfMaine: @Handy Haversack: Thanks for the Eliza Carthy link. I only have one recording of her, going all the way back to 1998's "Rice." Man, "Big Machine" sounds _nothing_ like that!
	👻 10:39am tadpoles: According to Top of the Pops they were originally called "Dave Dee & Boston"
	10:40am Phillippe: @Joe and @oscar just was looking them up to see what movie they were in (Last Night in Soho). IMDB says "The group had eight hits in the Top 10. Between 1965 and 1969 they spent more weeks in the UK hit singles charts than any other band, even the Beatles."
	10:41am Joe McG: @tadpoles: Leg puller!
	10:42am Joe McG: @Phillippe: Fascinating!
	10:43am Mike Sin: re: Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick, and Tich They actually spent more time on the UK singles charts in the '60s than the Beatles!
	10:43am rx scabin: I must go. Thank you, Joe.
	10:43am Handy Haversack: Woooo, Single File is in the zone today!
	10:44am Mxter Baba: I'm gonna use "Davy Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich" in my next knock knock joke.
	10:44am Joe McG: @Handy: A Single File Classic (TM). :)
	10:44am Mike Sin: Hi Joe -- Spent the morning listening to your show through the ear goggles while I was in the doctor's waiting room. That is the untapped market -- we've got to get your show piped into doctors' waiting room around the country!
	10:46am McGroovey: @Mike Sin It will happen. One earbud at a time!
	10:47am Son Of Pantz: @Mike Sin Colonoscopy/WFMU Listening Party could get more cancer screening incentives.
	10:47am Handy Haversack: "Davy Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick, and Tich who?"

	10:50am Joe McG: @tadpoles: Wow! Dave Dee and The Boston! @pete: It's the B! But there are a couple more on a rarities comp. @Alex: Thx!

	10:52am Asheville Jon: always great to hear ABBA on WFMU!
	10:53am Joe McG: I remember asking for Sinatra during my MRI and it really helped ease my anxiety!
	10:53am Mike Sin: @Joe McG -- the cardioligst said I have the heart of a younger man. Don't have to see him for another 10. Just want to keep those ventricles clogged with L-U-V from here on out, nah-mean?
	10:54am TerrDE: 70s Abba, 80s Roxette, 90s Ace of Base then Sweden went Metal and never was heard again.
	10:54am dano59: What year was the Kasem LP from? Little Steven only made the Top 40 once, with “Forever” reaching #39 in ‘82 or early ‘83. Sun City also did, I think… (‘85)
	10:54am Mxter Baba: Handy @10:47 "That's show biz!"

	10:56am Handy Haversack: Ha, works for me, Mxter Baba!
	10:57am Mike Sin: When I'm in the MRI machine, and all those extremely loud mechanical noises start, I just pretend it is a new "experimental music" show on WFMU! ;)
	10:58am dano59: @TerrDE: Sweden went (indie/power) pop in the ‘90s too!
	10:58am Krys O.: Exactly, Mike Sin. I like when I've thought, "Ooh, that one is a new sound."
	11:00am McGroovey: I finally Shazamed this need music.
	11:01am dano59: Listening in my mechanic’s waiting room. New battery & inspection.

	11:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Longer than TheBeatles - thats's actually remarkable. Probly not as many #1s or something...
	11:05am TonyR: Boo! What's a pumpkin cost?
	11:06am Ryansterlingvirtue: does anyone know when swag for lifers get the email to cash in for swag?
	11:06am dano59: @TerreDE: I really like Hello Saferide (aka Annika Norlin) and some others I’m spacing on that I discovered on the late SwedesPlease blog in the early Aughts. It can be read on the Wayback Machine even if the links are dead … Also: The Refreshments (roots rock; backed Dave Edmunds)…
	11:07am TerrDE: yeah, I'm not buying the more hits thing for a second. i realize UK has some peculiar tastes that don't cross the pond, but thats too far fetched
	👻 11:07am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: @Ryansterlingvirtue was gonna ask that....
	11:10am Martin From Montréal: Gendron is pronounced "jen-dron" (short n...)
	11:11am TerrDE: @dano i think ive heard saferide snd refreshments here, thanks

	11:12am D Rok: Habibi Funk is a fantastic label.
	👻 11:13am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Missed the beginning of the show, what's up with Mark Hurst?
	11:13am Joe McG: @Woods: Ha ha ha, I'm trying to RAISE money, not lose it. I think "Music Time" probably killed about 25 pledges alone.
	👻 11:14am tadpoles: Rabbit hole Joe.....here's an amazing piece of trivia from Wiki: "Before leaving the Wiltshire police force, vocalist Dave Dee attended the scene of the motoring accident in which the American rock and roller Eddie Cochran was killed and Gene Vincent was injured in April 1960."
	11:15am Phillippe: @terreDE and @dano another vote here for Hello Saferide. "Anna" is one of my all-time favorite songs
	11:16am Joe McG: @tadpoles" Wowee!
	11:16am Brendan: Re: specials- Rob Weisberg had an accordion show this past Saturday. Especially special!
	11:17am Handy Haversack: This is great. Tape culture was really big in Egypt, from what I've learned.
	11:18am PKNY: Not sure if someone has already posted it here, but if you're interested in the entire AT40 list from 6/2/84, here it is: oldradioshows.com...
	11:19am pot8o: site seems to be down :(
	11:20am PKNY: Oops, should have posted the Web Archive link: web.archive.org...
	11:21am Mike W.: bodega pop
	11:27am Baja Joe: Hey there Joe and everyone listening
	11:27am dano59: Handy: there’s some excellent scholarship around that tape culture
	11:27am D Rok: If I'm not mistaken, Scott Williams has, on numerous occasions, expressed his utter distaste for music from 1984. I'm sure he loved the set this morning.
	11:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ⦿Sun in ♎︎Libra, Year of Earth 🐅Tiger Birth name: Ray Edward Cochran Born: October 3, 1938, Albert Lea, Minnesota, U.S. Died: April 17, 1960, Bath, England
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Heard a thing on NPR about how Tape Culture enabled the entire Iranian Revolution or such. People just circulated these communiques from the Ayatollah (?) like a huge underground cult.
	11:30am Handy Haversack: Gotta go sit in the car. Thanks, Joe!
	11:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if you'll forgive the vagueness regarding major history...
	11:31am McGroovey: Scott W is clearly mistaken. www.slicingupeyeballs.com...
	11:32am dano59: NPR/WNYC’s “Mixtape” series from about a year ago was fascinating
	👻 11:32am yerfriendpaul: Casey’s back!!
	11:33am TerrDE: 2 hit wonder
	11:33am timinoak: One of the best songs of the 80s.
	11:33am Joe McG: "Take your baby by the ears"??
	11:33am Jason from Houston: "cool on christ"
	11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If the podbay doors ain't gonna be opened - it might as well be in CasekKasem's voice.
	11:34am dano59: Pinky Ann Rihal is a new very guilty pleasure
	11:34am wind: ♥️
	11:34am McGroovey: Although it's true that the horrible snare drum sound heard on this Wang Chung song infected too much eighties music.
	11:34am Robm: @Joe McG interesting show that we are listening too today
	11:35am McGroovey: I blame cocaine.
	11:35am Blix: Everybody have fun tonight. Everybody Wang Chung tonight.
	11:35am ledzeppelinsucks: Wang Chung Dancehall Days is on To Live and Die in L.A. sound track
	11:35am dano59: Let’s all watch “Red Dawn” and “13 Going on 30” tonight

	11:35am TerrDE: gating, reverse gating on drums was mandatory
	👻 11:35am Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Joe. This gives me an idea for a Wake-N'-Bake game. Fill in the band name to the phrase "This makes my ____ ____."
	👻 11:35am yerfriendpaul: I’m breaking out my vintage can of New Coke for this!
	11:36am asheville jon: SCORPS!!!
	11:37am The Oscar: Is that EG Daly?
	11:37am Hubig Pie: Rammstein !!??!!
	11:37am Brendan: Wang Chung dedicated to Snuggles. (RIP)
	11:37am McGroovey: Is this Clairol commercial actually on the LP? Crazy.
	11:37am Jason from Houston: Just play it all the way through. LOL
	11:37am TVP: A hair spray commercial in a radio show from the 80s? No way.
	11:37am Joe McG: I want the zit announcer's voice!
	👻 11:38am yerfriendpaul: Great deep voice
	11:38am Roberto: Apparently, zits were hot in '84.
	11:38am mrmikestandsir: Or maybe that’s Bart Simpson?
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Zit Announcer & the Two Hit Wonderz
	11:38am paddy in matawan: no one even calls em zits anymore.
	11:38am Andres: Teenage anxiety flashbacks!
	11:39am Andres: I also heard Bart.
	11:39am weirds: Search Casey Casem rant on YouTube
	11:39am steveo: Oh yeah I hear what you mean about the advertisements now..
	👻 11:39am Webhamster Henry: If you like these old commercials, I listen to CBS Radio Mystery Theatre airchecks and they have period news and commercials from the early 70s to the early 80s. www.cbsrmt.com
	11:39am Hubig Pie: When I was a raging teen we were only allowed Oxy 5 for our hormone problems
	11:39am Robm: @weirds fucking ponderous
	👻 11:39am Webhamster Henry: The way they tried to sell stuff back then was somewhat different.
	11:39am Krys O.: @Henry: I listened to those on WOR in the 70s.
	11:40am Andres: Will we hear “Everybody Wants Something” by The Zit Remedy?
	11:41am Robm: @Krys O remember gaberial heater there is good news tonight?
	11:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Eh. Done with TheCars after first two albums. There's worse things.
	11:41am Joe McG: I haven't heard this Cars song since 1984.
	11:42am asheville jon: This video had some really bad lipsynching
	👻 11:42am Ken From Hyde Park: The zit monster's got a hold on you, but if you use Oxy 10, it cleans up your face like magic.
	11:42am weirds: The guy who played to lead character in To Live and Die in LA was sooo bad he ruined what might’ve been a good movie. It’s one of the worst leads in cinematic history
	11:42am dano59: There’s an air checks page at radiotapes.com (?) with ‘70s vintage Minn.-St Paul concert ads, album promos, and more (head-shops too)
	11:43am PMD: I feel like I turned on the local 80’s station
	11:43am Brendan: Here I am (rock you like a hurricane).
	👻 11:43am yerfriendpaul: Love his history of heavy metal
	11:43am The Oscar: Someone should have played Casey "Caledonia" by Cromagnon.
	11:43am duke: Joe is doing a great Casey Kasem initation
	11:44am PMD: Not a horrible thing
	11:44am Roberto: Zeppelin and Deep Purple were metal?
	11:44am dano59: Smoke on the Water: all the bands at 7th-grade dances
	11:44am Eugene R.: @Webhamster Henry, Krys O.: I was a stone-cold E. G. Marshall fan, thanks to CBS Radio Mystery Theater, back in WOR days.
	11:44am Brendan: This doesn’t go well in Florida
	👻 11:44am Yetz: Seriously, if you tried to invent a band that combined all the elements I don't like in rock, you might come up with the Cars.
	11:44am Krys O.: Klaus Meine! R.I.P.
	11:44am Joe McG: Casey just gave us a very helpful summary of Heavy Metal. I learned a lot!
	11:45am dano59: I’d rather hear “Hold Me Now” tbh
	11:45am Hubig Pie: I'm gettin' visions of a Simpsons' episode
	11:45am PMD: Scorpions doesn’t even feel like heavy metal anymore
	11:45am Krys O.: Oops, Klaus is still alive. I confused him for a second with Kevin Dubrow of Quiet Riot.
	11:45am steveo: I can't believe I'd never heard of that what does he call it smoke on the water??? before
	👻 11:45am Ken From Hyde Park: The best heavy metal band was Jethro Tull. They won a Grammy.
	11:45am Andres: So we’re all in agreement about the origins of heavy metal?
	11:46am PMD: Casey’s history is usually pretty helpful
	11:46am Vanessa bikes: I was obsessed with Casey Kasem top 40 in 1980s, I listened on a little alarm clock /radio.
	11:46am Joe McG: If you think about it, the American Top 40 of 1984 is kinda freeform.
	11:46am Jason from Houston: 'raunchy like a hurricane"
	11:46am PKNY: Casey very wisely left out his take on Iron Maiden and the NWOBHM
	11:46am Steiner: Growing up with Casey Kasem’s America’s Top 40, this is a very welcome surprise. So cool to listen to. Thanks!
	11:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: BlueCheer were on American Bandstand...
	11:46am asheville jon: This is nowhere as metal as the scorps' first album
	11:46am clarke: well... i never...!!
	11:46am Jason from Houston: I misheard everything in the 1980s.
	11:46am weirds: Vanessa me too with the UK charts hosted by Tommy Vance
	11:46am Brendan: Wow, and I thought heavy-metal was an offshoot of polka
	11:47am Micheal: “Rock you like a tornado. No, hurricane!”
	11:47am Andres: Joe: Agreed! Some wild juxtapositions!
	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Rather have Uli Jon Roth for us Hendrixheadz... I'm good with this. For the length of a Chart Single ...once in 38 years...
	11:48am Hubig Pie: No, no, no.... polka is in 5/4 time
	11:48am weirds: Humbug Germany
	11:49am Hörer Christoph: The Scorpions are from Hanover, not Hamburg
	👻 11:49am yerfriendpaul: Casey is so metal
	11:49am clarke: Joe McG: thanks for yer thang!! been enjoying you on archives. Hey Hubig, hugs from NON humid nola!
	11:49am Roberto: Rock you like a smooth jazz?
	11:49am Deano de los Muertos: What’s with the Casey wormhole?
	11:50am JetBoy now of Astoria: When I hear the Scorps, I think model railroading. When I was about 10 or so, I was way into the model RR stuff and almost always playing the Scorpions while doing it.
	11:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't rawk yer yachtrawk.
	11:50am Joe McG: @clarke: Nice to hear! I've been thinking of replacing all my archives with AT40 airchecks.
	11:50am Andres: Hope we’re not left hanging not knowing who was number one.
	👻 11:50am tadpoles: Way before "Smoke on the Water" Deep Purple's 1968 version of Joe South's "Hush" could be classified as Heavy Metal
	11:50am BLCKDGRD: Style Council > The Jam
	11:50am dano59: The MTV influence on Top 40 is strong here
	11:50am clarke: i wonder what the flipside of that Cars single was (could look this up, but hey, it's the chat).
	11:51am PJ: I never realized The Style Council made it to the Top 40 in 1984. Pity they didn't follow up their chart success with a North American tour, it might have made a difference for them.
	11:51am clarke: i could go widdat, Joe!
	11:51am Hubig Pie: Jah clarke. October always pretty nice wx in NOLA
	11:51am Stanley: Just tuned in. Man, Joe sounds a lot different nowadays. And I'm not complaining.
	11:51am dreamyandseedy: @PKNY: thanks for that AT link, i am trying to find more of those lists! is there another link w/a big clickable list of dates? i haven't used the way back machine much, finding it hard to search
	11:51am Joe McG: @Andres: Cliffhanger! Tune in next week to find out the #1 song.
	11:51am Mike W.: This song is the Venn diagram that contains both Casey Kasem and WFMU
	11:51am McGroovey: I loved this Style Council song. Some people hated (?) them because they weren't The Jam. Whatever.
	👻 11:51am DjLorraine: Threemoons Mark Hurst supplied us with some new (old) tunes. Let's hear it for our boy!
	11:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sabbath's first album. That ain't just HardRawk anymore. That's Metal - creepy cover - all the boxes.
	11:51am Brendan: Casey went out back and chain smoked during those little musical interludes. Maybe uttered a few salty words. A few bites of a bologna sandwich in a brown paper bag. then back on the mic, a pros pro.
	11:52am StuartR: Modfather in a Hellraiser
	11:52am Kelly Jones: 'The Style Council'... what a fabulous name. I also love 'Skinny Puppy' but I don't think Kacy Kasem is gonna play them.
	11:52am weirds: England saves the day again
	11:52am Jason from Houston: Right, PJ? I literally just said "WUUUUUUT?" outloud.
	11:52am WaffleMix: That was...really a change from the start of the set.
	11:52am Joe B: love this song. yes McGroov is correct - there was a backlash though it is not that different from town called malice
	👻 11:52am yerfriendpaul: Wasn’t he married to a really tall platinum blonde actress? I don’t think the marriage lasted
	11:52am weirds: England saves the chart again
	11:53am PKNY: @dreamyandseedy - here's the link I have bookmarked for those Casey occasions! billdembski.com...
	11:53am Droog: I wonder who would win in a fight, The Style Council or The Human League.
	11:53am clarke: i think it is vastly different from Malice, but i still like it, ok.
	11:53am Joe B: wang chung opened for the cars on the 1984 tour, funny they are back to back on the countdown
	11:53am Kelly Jones: Human League, another great band name.
	11:53am McGroovey: There's no need for fightin'.
	11:54am PJ: @Joe McG: re freeform, the US charts were pretty diverse, music-wise, up until the '90s. As a kid, this was great, because even though there was always a lot of crap on the charts, you got exposed to a lot of different types of music without any critical baggage.
	11:54am Listening Out There: Feelin' stylish here. Yawn...
	11:54am dano59: If only “The Paris Match” got more plays than, say, “True”
	11:54am Kelly Jones: Wang Chung! I mean, the music of the 80's could only be surpassed by the band names.
	11:54am βrian: If you place your hand on the sanctuary door before you're caught, Irene will give shelter on the Drummer Stream: wfmu.org...
	11:54am Heidella: This show is so fun!
	11:54am Joe B: @clarke - the b side of magic was the non-LP I Refuse
	11:54am JetBoy now of Astoria: Hey! You got your Wang in my Chung! That’s how the band was formed, in a sauna.
	11:54am listener 126464: Thank you, Joe!
	11:55am Kelly Jones: Great Show Joe!
	11:55am clarke: thanks, Joe - i need to seek dat~
	11:55am dano59: Spoiler: Joe already played the #1 song

	11:55am iiibeat: We were talking last night on how the story of Icarus = The Tower of Babel . . lol

	11:55am TimSF: @Kelly, Joe Wang Chung means perfect pitch...I think. I had the cassette.
	👻 11:56am Ken From Hyde Park: Is there sill a kind of America's Top 40 weekly radio program these days? If so, who's the host? Thanks, Joe. You're one of America's Top 40 DJs!
	11:56am Brendan: Damn, Casey deserved better than this: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna938626
	11:56am crateslinger: Thanks for the Casey Casem Joe. Reminds me of being in my mom's car on the way to weekend grocery shopping. Maybe she'll get me McDonalds!
	11:56am βrian: Wasn't the Empty V the hand gesture that Spock used?
	11:56am clarke: also, Joe Belock, i gotta jump inna shower and run and errand, but will check in l8r.
	11:57am PKNY: @Joe - I got very adept at setting our VCR time to record things like Friday Night Videos and USA Night Flight.
	11:57am jg: Loved Friday night videos!
	11:57am Chet23: U68
	11:57am Robm: @Ken i know shadoe stevens did it for a while
	11:57am crateslinger: Grab your baby by the ears And play upon her darkest fears - Wang Chung
	11:57am JetBoy now of Astoria: @Ken - Ryan Seacrest had a top 40 show for a long time
	11:57am dano59: 1 more fun fact: The Dan Hartman song was featured in “Streets of Fire,” with a black boy band onscreen.
	11:57am TerrDE: i remember a count down in the sixties... will One be the Beatles ?, Stones ? Supremes ? ..."Strangers in the night exchanging glances..."
	11:57am Snuggles in Washington: similarly not having cable or MTV as a lad, I remember the syndicated show Video Jukebox, which had Britt Ekland prancing around in a skimpy tuxedo type outfit between videos.
	11:57am Strandlund: Thanks Casey...um, I mean Joe!!
	👻 11:58am tadpoles: Looking forward to next week's Joe. Thanks. Cheers

The Dragon spacecraft supporting this mission previously flew Crew-3 to and from the space station, and – following stage separation – Falcon 9’s first stage will land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas drone ship stationed in the Atlantic Ocean. NASA astronauts Nicole Mann, Josh Cassada, Japanese astronaut Koichi Wakata, and Russian cosmonaut Anna Kikina will launch on the Crew Dragon spacecraft to begin a six-month expedition on the ISS. During their time on the orbiting laboratory, the crew will conduct over 200 science experiments and technology demonstrations in areas such as human health and lunar fuel systems. The Crew Dragon will return to a splashdown at sea. The webcast for the Crew-5 mission will go live about 4 hours before liftoff. www.youtube.com... . also...

	👻 9:05am Webhamster Henry: You are all dancing around like Kevin Bacon.
	9:05am G: Someone get the Mark Hurst connection here?
	👻 9:05am Yetz: Just wondering - those little snippets of music in the Yip Yips opening - did they come from somewhere, or did the Sesame Streep producers write those for the bit? Must have been fun, "we need 5 seconds of rock-n-roll".
	9:06am trailrunnah: Thanks for posting the internet..
	👻 9:07am Marley P. Dogg: Let’s hear it for the yips! Pledge!
	9:07am Asheville Jon: ugh. i had to live through the eighties once already
	9:08am The Oscar: Mornin' Joe! If you're doing dedications, I've got a number I'd like to send out to a little dog named Snuggles.
	👻 9:08am Yetz: sorry, just hit the switch. i'll be back in a bit.
	9:08am PKNY: This Styx song has strong "play during ending credits of an 80's teen coming of age movie" vibe
	9:08am Rich from Wading River: Not sure how I feel about this Styx-as-Sparks song.
	9:08am Tinley Park Randy: Wow. I already hate Styx. Now I really hate them. This is horrific!
	9:08am WoodsOfMaine: Wow, this Styx tune hit the charts?? A studio track on a live album. Bizarre.
	9:08am TerrDE: did some main member lesve and this was the result ?
	9:09am The Oscar: Starx.
	9:09am Brendan: Good morning Joe. Did you even go to sleep last night? Holy cow this is high energy.
	9:09am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: @PKNY kinda feels like we might be able to drum up a plot abstract in just the space of this Styx song
	👻 9:09am Brooklyn Clay: Is this Joe’s AT40 ’84 emergency bathroom break tape?
	9:10am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: Did Joe get his hands on some of those GAP ’80s in-store cassettes??
	9:10am PaulRobeson1922: W F M U
	9:10am Buckaroo: Wow, this has been a fantastic reminder that top 40 radio in the mid-80s was a sterile wasteland.
	9:11am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: W F M U ... lite!!!
	9:11am Erin in TO: I did not expect to hear Casey Casem this morning
	9:11am B R M: I'm loving this ... absolute flashbacks
	9:11am Gary: Ha. Yesterday I was driving back from Halifax and the radio was playing a Casey Casem 70s look back
	9:11am Asheville Jon: i'm not sure whether to laugh along with this set, or to go get my sledge hammer and start smashing things
	9:12am G: Steven Spielberg presents... Gremlins! haha
	9:12am The Butterman: Let’s hear it for the Joe. Styxx? Let’s never hear that again.
	9:12am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: chat board so far is proof of how we’d follow Joe McG just about anywhere
	9:12am WoodsOfMaine: Kinda funny. That Styx tune DID sound like Sparks. Except that Sparks is revered and Styx is hated.
	9:13am NewWilOrder: You never see Casey Kasem and Regis Philbin in the same place at the same time.
	9:13am Asheville Jon: next we need a Bob Evans restaurant commercial
	9:13am TerrDE: oh, the first one wasn't Whitney Houston. Her voice was missing that non harmonic overtone
	9:13am Tinley Park Randy: This is tolerable
	9:13am B R M: son: "Dad, why do you have all of these weird records from the 80's?" Me: Sweeping hand gesture toward Surface Noise 10/3/22
	9:13am Tinley Park Randy: 1984.
	9:13am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: careful Woods, you’re perilously close to unlocking the secret of WFMU
	9:13am Krys O.: Dan Hartman was in the Edgar Winter Group and is featured on Frankenstein.
	9:13am Erin in TO: I feel like I'm 12, listening to the local pop station for the countdown on the weekend
	9:14am G: 1984... And Reagan was about to win re-election in a landslide haha
	👻 9:14am SeaCreature: This was bad enough the first time around
	9:14am TerrDE: I remembered the 80s having great singles. I was cherry picking.
	9:14am Harry Corvair: Streets of Fire, not bad!
	👻 9:14am Brooklyn Clay: This set doesn't exactly have me reaching for my wallet
	9:14am Asheville Jon: so far, everything played so far guaranteed that i instantly turned the radio station when it was played back then
	9:14am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: Krys I wonder how many other working musicians from the ’70s had one-hits in the ’80s (apologies to the legions of Dan Hartman fans if he had another hit)
	👻 9:14am Marley P. Dogg: Just had to look at the calendar to make sure it’s not April 1st
	👻 9:15am yerfriendpaul: Hey Joe! I’m enjoying this excursion. Junior year of high school. I was probably experimenting with mousse
	9:15am Erin in TO: This set has me thinking there will never be enough money in my wallet to support this station like it deserves
	9:15am Dan_In_Baltimore: <MADMAX> MEDIOCRE! </>
	9:16am The Oscar: Say what you will about the music, but going to the movies and being able to choose between Streets of Fire and Gremlins sounds pretty alright.
	9:16am Krys O.: Eric Carmen had Hungry Eyes from the Dirty Dancing soundtrack.
	9:16am Krys O.: Giggle!
	👻 9:16am Marley P. Dogg: Viva vida Sassoon Paul
	9:17am TerrDE: Obsession, She Blinded Me w Science, Mexican Radio there were good ones
	9:17am Droog: Loving this, I'll take 80s trash pop over the stuff on mainstream radio these days.
	9:17am Susan: You there Joe???
	9:17am char: Surprise sets like this break up the monotonous drudgery of existence...even if you weren't exactly dying to hear these cuts.
	9:17am Robm: This show is interesting today
	9:17am TerrDE: this ones at least ok
	9:17am Destroit: This is so great. I could listen to McG throw down kasem top 40 resets, old commercials, 70’s country tracks and wedding present songs for days…..
	9:17am Krys O.: Man, this reminds me so much of working in a record store at the time.
	9:18am Erin in TO: I'm honestly loving this
	👻 9:18am LastWhiteRhino: Icicle Works was known as Water Works before the Ice Age.
	9:18am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: this one was considered new wave for sure just waiting on Big frickn Country and/or the Alarm
	9:18am The Oscar: There's a very '90s cover of this one over the end credits of Scream-- not sure I knew it was a cover!
	9:18am Joe McG: Good morning, everyone, I hope you are enjoying some radio from June 2, 1984. Thanks to Mark for the 3-LP set of the great Casey Kasem. The letter U and the numeral 2, everyone!
	👻 9:18am yerfriendpaul: I saw Icicle Works open for David Gilmour in Hartford that year! The lunkhead Floyd fans booed them. I felt bad for them
	9:19am NewWilOrder: Save Ferris!
	👻 9:20am tadpoles: Yes....Casey Kasem was heard around the world. And Brian Matthew did it for us from Britain.
	9:20am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: @yerfriendpaul I had front-row for U2 in 1983 in Cleveland and Lone Justice opened — overly harsh response from U2 diehards
	9:20am TerrDE: Screwball comedys returned
	9:20am TerrDE: Use bleach it kills Covid too
	9:20am WoodsOfMaine: @Mike W: Gees, that first Lone Justice record was killer! Snobs.
	9:21am B R M: @Joe McG - are you saying this is an LP
	9:21am Droog: Benzoil peroxide!
	9:21am Andres: Did Ken sell the station?
	👻 9:21am Yetz: during this period i was taking refuge in Pere Ubu and stuff like that
	9:21am D Rok: This is fantastic.
	9:21am Asheville Jon: this howard jones is mediocreably somewhat tolerable
	9:21am Strandlund: Are we doing the time warp again..?
	9:21am TerrDE: gate those drums
	9:22am TonyR: @Andres: Turns out the parking lot was worth more.
	9:22am Harry Corvair: Was that .. Euneeda Bodenheim shilling an acne treatment?
	9:22am Krys O.: @Yetz: I sought refuge in WFMU back then. Music at my job was wholly other.
	👻 9:22am yerfriendpaul: Definitely had to use Oxy for the zits of the 80s
	9:23am NewWilOrder: You never see Howard Jones and Thomas Dolby in the same place at the same time.
	9:23am Joe McG: @BRM: Yes, I'm playing from a vinyl record. Side 1A!
	9:23am TerrDE: my Flangers broken can I use 2 Choruses instead ?
	9:23am Krys O.: We had MTV playing non-stop at the record store too.
	9:24am WoodsOfMaine: What is Love? produced by Rupert Hine. Dang, this is fun.
	9:24am PKNY: Donate to the Hellraiser, or the ghost of Casey Kasem is taking over full time!
	👻 9:24am yerfriendpaul: I have a found photograph collection. One of them is a nose-bleed-view of a Howard Jones concert
	9:24am common: i remember this summer
	9:25am Krys O.: Ooh, nice, Paul!
	9:25am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: women making hit songs?! balderdash!
	9:25am TVP: "The world's oldest profession" = She made an album about hunting/gathering?
	9:25am Folksnake: @NewWil oh man I just realized I've been conflating them for years
	9:25am TerrDE: Combat Zone
	9:25am Rich in Washington: I keep expecting Casey to lose it at any minute....
	9:25am Erin in TO: @TVP not gonna lie, I'd wanna listen to that album
	9:26am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: @NewWilOrder that’s because Thomas Dolby is a decent fellow and Howard Jones is a prick
	9:26am Krys O.: @Rich: Of course he did, but it was on the cutting room floor.
	9:26am Joe McG: Hey, I just watched the ZZ Top documentary. Pretty fun!
	👻 9:26am Karl Ward: ZZ Top is the one true religion of Texas
	👻 9:26am yerfriendpaul: Joe McG - it is good!
	9:26am Asheville Jon: oh no. i found the list of songs on this countown. we are doomed
	👻 9:26am DjLorraine: Legs! Goodmorning Joe and all
	👻 9:26am Karl Ward: I'm going to see ZZ Top in a couple weeks!
	👻 9:26am Marley P. Dogg: Secretly hoping all six sides get played! That ZZ Top documentary was great - a lot I didn’t know about them
	9:27am WoodsOfMaine: @Joe McG: That _was_ fun. I loved watching them play. Man, they were locked in!
	👻 9:27am Yetz: AA Bottom
	9:27am TerrDE: unlike actual fans, i prefer these hits. Sharp Dressed Man kills
	9:27am Joe McG: @karl: Wow, jealous!
	👻 9:27am Yetz: Krys O: Yeah, lots of WFMU. That's where I heard the Ubu.
	9:28am berkshires matty: will Casey bleep the s word?
	9:28am Bernardo: Casey Cassum guest hosting on WFMU? Wow we’re really on the map now.
	9:28am Mike W is a Swag4Lifer without icons: I know we are purportedly being exposed to multiple songs, but I think the playlist should be amended so that this is all one entry
	9:29am TonyR: I didn't even know he was dead.
	9:29am Asheville Jon: brace yourself folks, the next one is a doozie!
	9:29am TonyR: No fair peeking!!
	9:29am berkshires matty: yay
	9:29am Handy Haversack: Well! Apparently, everyone else knew there was no internet at the office, but I got to spend an hour listening to WAB over the office boombox before someone thought to let me know. I hear this show is also from the pre-internet era? Morning, Joe and all!
	9:29am nathan: cutting off the Legs outro is the perfect encapsulation of everything wrong with commercial radio
	9:30am TonyR: Rod in the 80s? I'm gonna say "Lost in You".
	👻 9:30am yerfriendpaul: My guess is Young Turks
	9:30am BillyLundun: Do you have the max factor?
	👻 9:30am Yetz: ah I can breathe again
	👻 9:30am yerfriendpaul: Or Infatuation
	9:30am Lord Jimz: max factor
	👻 9:30am LastWhiteRhino: Maxie...wasn't that the eye shadow you used to use, Joe?
	9:31am The Oscar: Just realized I watched a Siskel & Ebert episode from September 1984 on YouTube this morning. Am I unstuck in time?
	9:31am Droog: Noooooo we need to know what the next one was gonna be
	9:31am NewWilOrder: Stay tuned after Casey Kasem for the Wolfman Jack Show.
	9:31am Asheville Jon: whew for those that want to know, the date list was from June 2, 1984
	9:31am Andres: Did I miss the long distance dedication?
	👻 9:31am yerfriendpaul: Thanks Joe - I enjoyed that
	👻 9:32am Webhamster Henry: Clay Pigeon can follow Casey Kasem
	9:32am Asheville Jon: he's still alive in our hearts Joe
	👻 9:32am Yetz: he was the voice of Shaggy in Scooby-Doo
	9:32am steveo: Missed Styx 😭😭😭
	9:32am Andres: Items from his estate were auctioned off this past year.
	9:32am Roberto: I guess there were no GODDAM DEAD DOG dedications in that set.
	9:33am Destroit: Shout out to Detroit haha WJLB
	👻 9:34am yerfriendpaul: Joe, can you give a dedication to my childhood dead dog, Harrigan?
	👻 9:35am John L: Casey Kasem also co-starred in The Incredible 2-Headed Transplant, in 1971. Not Bruce Dern's finest work.
	9:35am PKNY: They replay the 70s Casey AT40 countdowns on the Sirius 70s channel on the weekends, not sure if they do the 80s ones on the 80s channel
	9:35am Rich in Washington: Casey had a small part in the wonderful Incredible Two Headed Transplant with Bruce Dern.
	9:35am PaulRobeson1922: Yeah! A full day worth of dog dedications!
	9:36am Asheville Jon: makes me feel like i'm chewing on a mouth full of aluminum foil
	9:36am Rich in Washington: OH jinx, John L.! I didn't see your comment because I'm on my dumbphone
	9:36am PKNY: @Rich - so there was another 70s movie based on a person with two heads? en.wikipedia.org...
	9:37am berkshires matty: June of '84 is when I took up smoking. kept it up for 14 years!
	9:37am dale: casey was robin on superfriends too, no? ted knight did the opening voiceover. these shows are on the 70s on 7 channel on sirius on sunday morning.
	9:38am morphe': Thanks Joe McG .. got to go ...
	👻 9:38am Brian in UK: Hey Joe.
	9:39am WoodsOfMaine: We don't play top 40 music except for when it comes from an acceptable source (*cough* Sparks *cough*)
	9:39am The Oscar: I wish WFMU hits made American Top 40, if only so we could hear Casey Kasem read the phrase "With a Beaker on the Burner and an Otter in the Oven."
	9:39am Rich from Wading River: Today you have Scott Shannon really trying to sound like Casey Kasem doing a top 40 shopper. He tries way too hard
	👻 9:39am yerfriendpaul: My friend Ned in college loved EBTG
	9:39am Joe McG: @Oscar: Ha ha ha! We can dream.
	👻 9:40am Brian in UK: Joe, you will be playing Marine Girls next!!
	9:40am B R M: Anyone read the Tracey Thorn memoirs? on my ever lengthening list...
	9:41am Andres: In high school I had a job for a few days helping the local AM station finish moving into their new studios/office. There were a couple trailer fulls of records that we took to the dump.
	9:41am Erin in TO: Surely somewhere on the internet there's an engine you can plug text into to have read in Casey Casem's voice?
	9:42am steveo: I didn't know about Shaggy -- wow!
	9:43am Rich from Wading River: Of course, who can forget Casey’s dead dog dedication - “ponderous!”
	👻 9:44am Yetz: apropos of nothing I saw guitarist Paolo Angeli last night and it was mind-blowingly brilliant.
	9:44am Firepitmama: My 15 year old LOVES Everything But the Girl!
	9:45am Joe McG: @Firepitmama: Cool kid! But be careful of those sad breakup songs!
	9:46am Roberto: Firepitmama, why doesn't he/she/they love the girl? :P
	👻 9:46am hollow: that was a very sweet song
	9:48am Joe McG: @Erin: That sounds like an amazing idea. I'm sure AI is on that so Casey can return to announce the current Top 40 (shiver).
	9:48am WoodsOfMaine: @Yetz: Never heard of him...but just looked. Wow. Dude's doing kind of what Metheny did on Orchestrion but on a single instrument!
	👻 9:48am tadpoles: #Brian in UK....and maybe some Weekend? (The Welsh band of course)
	9:49am PKNY: I read something recently where all future Darth Vader voice stuff in Star Wars-related projects will be generated from Jame Earl Jones' existing voice recordings. So why not the same with Casey?
	9:49am Erin in TO: @Joe I figure with all the voice modifications they do with mashups, and everything they can do with deep fakes, combined with how many recordings of Casey exist, it can't even be that hard
	👻 9:51am Brian in UK: tadpoles we are aging ourselves here!!
	9:52am Joe McG: Yes, it could be soon that no broadcaster ever dies. Orson Welles will be back to read the weather.
	9:52am Handy Haversack: Erin in TO, it sounds like a good Dinner at Andy's theme: call in and get Ken and Andy to repeat what you say in their best Casem. Then we monetize it!
	9:52am rx scabin: Good morning.
	9:52am Hörer Christoph: This is nice!
	9:53am Brendan: No offense to Mr. Kasem, but this gets it done for me in the morning.
	👻 9:54am Karl Ward: Hypothetically, has anyone ever trained AI voice models of Ken and Andy, and then applied those models to generate vocals for Britney Spears songs?
	9:55am The Oscar: @PKNY I think they should digitally recreate Casey Kasem's voice for all future Darth Vader appearances.
	9:55am Erin in TO: @Handy We can get listeners to vote on who did the better impression, and the loser donates to the station
	9:55am Handy Haversack: Is there something you need to tell us, karlward? Also: Eliza Carthy article in the Guardian today (one of the better URLs I can remember lately): www.theguardian.com...
	9:55am Brendan: Anyone else pick up on the similarity ? Green Grass of Tunnel (Mum)
	9:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Speed Racer & Robin y'all : 2.bp.blogspot.com... ...so they can be sampled too ...helll I bet Vicki Bennett could do it..
	👻 9:57am Ken From Hyde Park: In the future, your car's audio will speak in the voice of Jar Jar Binks, but you have the option to pay extra each month to subscribe to Casey or James E.J.

	10:06am katharsis: Hello Joe and all
	10:06am Son Of Pantz: Good Monday!
	10:08am Brendan: The Third Man was a fine piece of acting but Orson really showed his chops in the 70’s commercials. Who can forget the ad for frozen peas? Or Paul Masson - “we will sell no wine before it’s time“ (looks at his watch - “it’s time”).
	10:09am Son Of Pantz: A Touch Of Evil was Orson's finest performance.
	10:10am pot8o: still figuring out how to put emphasis on "in" and "beef" to this day
	10:11am WoodsOfMaine: Lloyd Maines. I think he's Natalie Maines dad. That was a fine record right there.
	10:11am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Orson was on talk shows enuff ...yeah lotsa samples.
	👻 10:12am Brian in UK: The antidote to Satanic Majesties?

	10:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dave Dee Dozy Mick Tich ...oh I left out Beaky. ...Yeah. Never.
	10:34am The Oscar: Every time I hear a Davy Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich song I think "I really need to listen to more Davy Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich."
	10:34am Phillippe: love these guys. Saw them in a movie, the title of which escapes me
	10:35am Son Of Pantz: I like the Davy Dee, Beaky and Tich but hold the Dozy, please.
	10:35am Joe McG: I like when they go "MWAH!"
	10:37am Phillippe: Love this Aztec Camera too.
	10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...tho DDDBMT do make me think of Tarantino's GrindHouse ...which was more violence than I bargained for to see RoseMcG. I discovered this Genki soda : cdn.shopify.com...

	10:39am WoodsOfMaine: @Handy Haversack: Thanks for the Eliza Carthy link. I only have one recording of her, going all the way back to 1998's "Rice." Man, "Big Machine" sounds _nothing_ like that!
	👻 10:39am tadpoles: According to Top of the Pops they were originally called "Dave Dee & Boston"
	10:40am Phillippe: @Joe and @oscar just was looking them up to see what movie they were in (Last Night in Soho). IMDB says "The group had eight hits in the Top 10. Between 1965 and 1969 they spent more weeks in the UK hit singles charts than any other band, even the Beatles."
	10:41am Joe McG: @tadpoles: Leg puller!
	10:42am Joe McG: @Phillippe: Fascinating!

	10:44am Mike Sin: Hi Joe -- Spent the morning listening to your show through the ear goggles while I was in the doctor's waiting room. That is the untapped market -- we've got to get your show piped into doctors' waiting room around the country!
	10:46am McGroovey: @Mike Sin It will happen. One earbud at a time!
	10:47am Son Of Pantz: @Mike Sin Colonoscopy/WFMU Listening Party could get more cancer screening incentives.
	10:47am Handy Haversack: "Davy Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick, and Tich who?"
	10:47am Listener Alexandra: No tears this morning--it's a joy to help out the station every Rocktober :)
	10:47am Joe McG: @Mike: I hope everything is OK with your physical person, Mike Sin!
	10:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...seems you could probly saddle up to DDDBM&T & just add yer name & no one would cotton on for some time...

	10:51am TerrDE: wait, below average. sub par could be good
	10:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Glen brings it - but Hollies or ConwayTwitty (was it?) for me... TerrDE yeah...
	10:52am Asheville Jon: always great to hear ABBA on WFMU!
	10:53am Joe McG: I remember asking for Sinatra during my MRI and it really helped ease my anxiety!
	10:53am Mike Sin: @Joe McG -- the cardioligst said I have the heart of a younger man. Don't have to see him for another 10. Just want to keep those ventricles clogged with L-U-V from here on out, nah-mean?
	10:54am TerrDE: 70s Abba, 80s Roxette, 90s Ace of Base then Sweden went Metal and never was heard again.
	10:54am dano59: What year was the Kasem LP from? Little Steven only made the Top 40 once, with “Forever” reaching #39 in ‘82 or early ‘83. Sun City also did, I think… (‘85)
	10:54am Mxter Baba: Handy @10:47 "That's show biz!"
	10:54am Krys O.: I've had quite a few MRIs and I approach them as Einsturzende Neubaten concerts.

	10:57am Mike Sin: When I'm in the MRI machine, and all those extremely loud mechanical noises start, I just pretend it is a new "experimental music" show on WFMU! ;)
	10:58am dano59: @TerrDE: Sweden went (indie/power) pop in the ‘90s too!
	10:58am Krys O.: Exactly, Mike Sin. I like when I've thought, "Ooh, that one is a new sound."
	11:00am McGroovey: I finally Shazamed this need music.
	11:01am dano59: Listening in my mechanic’s waiting room. New battery & inspection.

	11:02am McGroovey: That Abba song actually rocked.
	11:02am ledzeppelinsucks: Conway AR and Twitty TX is what he derived his stage name from

	11:06am dano59: @TerreDE: I really like Hello Saferide (aka Annika Norlin) and some others I’m spacing on that I discovered on the late SwedesPlease blog in the early Aughts. It can be read on the Wayback Machine even if the links are dead … Also: The Refreshments (roots rock; backed Dave Edmunds)…
	11:07am TerrDE: yeah, I'm not buying the more hits thing for a second. i realize UK has some peculiar tastes that don't cross the pond, but thats too far fetched
	👻 11:07am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: @Ryansterlingvirtue was gonna ask that....

	11:13am Joe McG: @Woods: Ha ha ha, I'm trying to RAISE money, not lose it. I think "Music Time" probably killed about 25 pledges alone.
	👻 11:14am tadpoles: Rabbit hole Joe.....here's an amazing piece of trivia from Wiki: "Before leaving the Wiltshire police force, vocalist Dave Dee attended the scene of the motoring accident in which the American rock and roller Eddie Cochran was killed and Gene Vincent was injured in April 1960."
	11:15am Phillippe: @terreDE and @dano another vote here for Hello Saferide. "Anna" is one of my all-time favorite songs
	11:16am Joe McG: @tadpoles" Wowee!
	11:16am Brendan: Re: specials- Rob Weisberg had an accordion show this past Saturday. Especially special!
	11:17am Handy Haversack: This is great. Tape culture was really big in Egypt, from what I've learned.
	11:18am PKNY: Not sure if someone has already posted it here, but if you're interested in the entire AT40 list from 6/2/84, here it is: oldradioshows.com...

	11:21am Mike W.: bodega pop
	11:27am Baja Joe: Hey there Joe and everyone listening
	11:27am dano59: Handy: there’s some excellent scholarship around that tape culture
	11:27am D Rok: If I'm not mistaken, Scott Williams has, on numerous occasions, expressed his utter distaste for music from 1984. I'm sure he loved the set this morning.
	11:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ⦿Sun in ♎︎Libra, Year of Earth 🐅Tiger Birth name: Ray Edward Cochran Born: October 3, 1938, Albert Lea, Minnesota, U.S. Died: April 17, 1960, Bath, England
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Heard a thing on NPR about how Tape Culture enabled the entire Iranian Revolution or such. People just circulated these communiques from the Ayatollah (?) like a huge underground cult.
	11:30am Handy Haversack: Gotta go sit in the car. Thanks, Joe!
	11:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if you'll forgive the vagueness regarding major history...
	11:31am McGroovey: Scott W is clearly mistaken. www.slicingupeyeballs.com...
	11:32am dano59: NPR/WNYC’s “Mixtape” series from about a year ago was fascinating

	11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If the podbay doors ain't gonna be opened - it might as well be in CasekKasem's voice.
	11:34am dano59: Pinky Ann Rihal is a new very guilty pleasure
	11:34am wind: ♥️
	11:34am McGroovey: Although it's true that the horrible snare drum sound heard on this Wang Chung song infected too much eighties music.
	11:34am Robm: @Joe McG interesting show that we are listening too today
	11:35am McGroovey: I blame cocaine.
	11:35am Blix: Everybody have fun tonight. Everybody Wang Chung tonight.

	11:35am TerrDE: gating, reverse gating on drums was mandatory

	11:37am Hubig Pie: Rammstein !!??!!
	11:37am Brendan: Wang Chung dedicated to Snuggles. (RIP)
	11:37am McGroovey: Is this Clairol commercial actually on the LP? Crazy.
	11:37am Jason from Houston: Just play it all the way through. LOL
	11:37am TVP: A hair spray commercial in a radio show from the 80s? No way.
	11:37am Joe McG: I want the zit announcer's voice!
	👻 11:38am yerfriendpaul: Great deep voice
	11:38am Roberto: Apparently, zits were hot in '84.
	11:38am mrmikestandsir: Or maybe that’s Bart Simpson?
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Zit Announcer & the Two Hit Wonderz
	11:38am paddy in matawan: no one even calls em zits anymore.
	11:38am Andres: Teenage anxiety flashbacks!
	11:39am Andres: I also heard Bart.
	11:39am weirds: Search Casey Casem rant on YouTube
	11:39am steveo: Oh yeah I hear what you mean about the advertisements now..

	11:39am Hubig Pie: When I was a raging teen we were only allowed Oxy 5 for our hormone problems
	11:39am Robm: @weirds fucking ponderous
	👻 11:39am Webhamster Henry: The way they tried to sell stuff back then was somewhat different.
	11:39am Krys O.: @Henry: I listened to those on WOR in the 70s.
	11:40am Andres: Will we hear “Everybody Wants Something” by The Zit Remedy?
	11:41am Robm: @Krys O remember gaberial heater there is good news tonight?
	11:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Eh. Done with TheCars after first two albums. There's worse things.
	11:41am Joe McG: I haven't heard this Cars song since 1984.
	11:42am asheville jon: This video had some really bad lipsynching
	👻 11:42am Ken From Hyde Park: The zit monster's got a hold on you, but if you use Oxy 10, it cleans up your face like magic.
	11:42am weirds: The guy who played to lead character in To Live and Die in LA was sooo bad he ruined what might’ve been a good movie. It’s one of the worst leads in cinematic history
	11:42am dano59: There’s an air checks page at radiotapes.com (?) with ‘70s vintage Minn.-St Paul concert ads, album promos, and more (head-shops too)
	11:43am PMD: I feel like I turned on the local 80’s station
	11:43am Brendan: Here I am (rock you like a hurricane).
	👻 11:43am yerfriendpaul: Love his history of heavy metal

	11:44am PMD: Not a horrible thing
	11:44am Roberto: Zeppelin and Deep Purple were metal?
	11:44am dano59: Smoke on the Water: all the bands at 7th-grade dances
	11:44am Eugene R.: @Webhamster Henry, Krys O.: I was a stone-cold E. G. Marshall fan, thanks to CBS Radio Mystery Theater, back in WOR days.
	11:44am Brendan: This doesn’t go well in Florida
	👻 11:44am Yetz: Seriously, if you tried to invent a band that combined all the elements I don't like in rock, you might come up with the Cars.
	11:44am Krys O.: Klaus Meine! R.I.P.
	11:44am Joe McG: Casey just gave us a very helpful summary of Heavy Metal. I learned a lot!
	11:45am dano59: I’d rather hear “Hold Me Now” tbh
	11:45am Hubig Pie: I'm gettin' visions of a Simpsons' episode
	11:45am PMD: Scorpions doesn’t even feel like heavy metal anymore
	11:45am Krys O.: Oops, Klaus is still alive. I confused him for a second with Kevin Dubrow of Quiet Riot.
	11:45am steveo: I can't believe I'd never heard of that what does he call it smoke on the water??? before
	👻 11:45am Ken From Hyde Park: The best heavy metal band was Jethro Tull. They won a Grammy.
	11:45am Andres: So we’re all in agreement about the origins of heavy metal?
	11:46am PMD: Casey’s history is usually pretty helpful
	11:46am Vanessa bikes: I was obsessed with Casey Kasem top 40 in 1980s, I listened on a little alarm clock /radio.
	11:46am Joe McG: If you think about it, the American Top 40 of 1984 is kinda freeform.
	11:46am Jason from Houston: 'raunchy like a hurricane"
	11:46am PKNY: Casey very wisely left out his take on Iron Maiden and the NWOBHM
	11:46am Steiner: Growing up with Casey Kasem’s America’s Top 40, this is a very welcome surprise. So cool to listen to. Thanks!
	11:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: BlueCheer were on American Bandstand...
	11:46am asheville jon: This is nowhere as metal as the scorps' first album
	11:46am clarke: well... i never...!!
	11:46am Jason from Houston: I misheard everything in the 1980s.
	11:46am weirds: Vanessa me too with the UK charts hosted by Tommy Vance
	11:46am Brendan: Wow, and I thought heavy-metal was an offshoot of polka
	11:47am Micheal: “Rock you like a tornado. No, hurricane!”
	11:47am Andres: Joe: Agreed! Some wild juxtapositions!
	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Rather have Uli Jon Roth for us Hendrixheadz... I'm good with this. For the length of a Chart Single ...once in 38 years...
	11:48am Hubig Pie: No, no, no.... polka is in 5/4 time
	11:48am weirds: Humbug Germany
	11:49am Hörer Christoph: The Scorpions are from Hanover, not Hamburg
	👻 11:49am yerfriendpaul: Casey is so metal
	11:49am clarke: Joe McG: thanks for yer thang!! been enjoying you on archives. Hey Hubig, hugs from NON humid nola!
	11:49am Roberto: Rock you like a smooth jazz?
	11:49am Deano de los Muertos: What’s with the Casey wormhole?
	11:50am JetBoy now of Astoria: When I hear the Scorps, I think model railroading. When I was about 10 or so, I was way into the model RR stuff and almost always playing the Scorpions while doing it.
	11:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't rawk yer yachtrawk.
	11:50am Joe McG: @clarke: Nice to hear! I've been thinking of replacing all my archives with AT40 airchecks.
	11:50am Andres: Hope we’re not left hanging not knowing who was number one.
	👻 11:50am tadpoles: Way before "Smoke on the Water" Deep Purple's 1968 version of Joe South's "Hush" could be classified as Heavy Metal
	11:50am BLCKDGRD: Style Council > The Jam
	11:50am dano59: The MTV influence on Top 40 is strong here
	11:50am clarke: i wonder what the flipside of that Cars single was (could look this up, but hey, it's the chat).
	11:51am PJ: I never realized The Style Council made it to the Top 40 in 1984. Pity they didn't follow up their chart success with a North American tour, it might have made a difference for them.
	11:51am clarke: i could go widdat, Joe!
	11:51am Hubig Pie: Jah clarke. October always pretty nice wx in NOLA
	11:51am Stanley: Just tuned in. Man, Joe sounds a lot different nowadays. And I'm not complaining.
	11:51am dreamyandseedy: @PKNY: thanks for that AT link, i am trying to find more of those lists! is there another link w/a big clickable list of dates? i haven't used the way back machine much, finding it hard to search
	11:51am Joe McG: @Andres: Cliffhanger! Tune in next week to find out the #1 song.
	11:51am Mike W.: This song is the Venn diagram that contains both Casey Kasem and WFMU
	11:51am McGroovey: I loved this Style Council song. Some people hated (?) them because they weren't The Jam. Whatever.
	👻 11:51am DjLorraine: Threemoons Mark Hurst supplied us with some new (old) tunes. Let's hear it for our boy!
	11:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sabbath's first album. That ain't just HardRawk anymore. That's Metal - creepy cover - all the boxes.
	11:51am Brendan: Casey went out back and chain smoked during those little musical interludes. Maybe uttered a few salty words. A few bites of a bologna sandwich in a brown paper bag. then back on the mic, a pros pro.
	11:52am StuartR: Modfather in a Hellraiser
	11:52am Kelly Jones: 'The Style Council'... what a fabulous name. I also love 'Skinny Puppy' but I don't think Kacy Kasem is gonna play them.
	11:52am weirds: England saves the day again
	11:52am Jason from Houston: Right, PJ? I literally just said "WUUUUUUT?" outloud.
	11:52am WaffleMix: That was...really a change from the start of the set.
	11:52am Joe B: love this song. yes McGroov is correct - there was a backlash though it is not that different from town called malice
	👻 11:52am yerfriendpaul: Wasn’t he married to a really tall platinum blonde actress? I don’t think the marriage lasted
	11:52am weirds: England saves the chart again
	11:53am PKNY: @dreamyandseedy - here's the link I have bookmarked for those Casey occasions! billdembski.com...
	11:53am Droog: I wonder who would win in a fight, The Style Council or The Human League.
	11:53am clarke: i think it is vastly different from Malice, but i still like it, ok.
	11:53am Joe B: wang chung opened for the cars on the 1984 tour, funny they are back to back on the countdown
	11:53am Kelly Jones: Human League, another great band name.
	11:53am McGroovey: There's no need for fightin'.
	11:54am PJ: @Joe McG: re freeform, the US charts were pretty diverse, music-wise, up until the '90s. As a kid, this was great, because even though there was always a lot of crap on the charts, you got exposed to a lot of different types of music without any critical baggage.
	11:54am Listening Out There: Feelin' stylish here. Yawn...
	11:54am dano59: If only “The Paris Match” got more plays than, say, “True”
	11:54am Kelly Jones: Wang Chung! I mean, the music of the 80's could only be surpassed by the band names.
	11:54am βrian: If you place your hand on the sanctuary door before you're caught, Irene will give shelter on the Drummer Stream: wfmu.org...
	11:54am Heidella: This show is so fun!
	11:54am Joe B: @clarke - the b side of magic was the non-LP I Refuse
	11:54am JetBoy now of Astoria: Hey! You got your Wang in my Chung! That’s how the band was formed, in a sauna.
	11:54am listener 126464: Thank you, Joe!
	11:55am Kelly Jones: Great Show Joe!
	11:55am clarke: thanks, Joe - i need to seek dat~
	11:55am dano59: Spoiler: Joe already played the #1 song
