	9:27am Joe McG: @dday: They used to play in Allentown a lot back in the day. Hey, pete!
	9:29am Strandlund: I take it that it's too early for "Blue Christmas?"
	9:29am morphe': "Directed by Santa Barbara-based Louise Palanker, Family Band: The Cowsills Story is an engaging, in-depth, and fascinating look at how one of the most popular bands of the 1960s — and probably the most ambitious and inclusive family-based group — crumbled under the weight of an abusive father-manager. Following the band from its early days on Ed Sullivan, when they played with an instinctual sibling harmony and inspired the creation of The Partridge Family, all the way through the more recent deaths of some family members today, the emotional but fun doc makes us remember the band whose version of “Hair” — not to mention the song “The Rain, The Park, and Other Things,” which you’d know if you heard it — is burned in everyone’s mind. " https://www.independent.com/2012/02/01/family-band-cowsills-story/
	9:30am dday: @Joe: Yes. My love Mef Gannon has been friends with them forever > All out of the Hackettstown music scene. Tim Carbone is still around doing Railroad Earth & production work. Sadly we've lost Tucker, Andy Goessling & Stephen Kerlinger (Buck Dilley)
	9:30am Joe McG: @Strandlund: You know, I don't think I even have a copy of that one. @morphe: Thanks for the link!
	👻 9:30am yerfriendpaul: Would you describe this mix as a royal blue, navy or powder?
	9:31am Krys O.: Thanks for this XTC!
	9:31am Handy Haversack: I like that this was a single!
	9:31am StringOFperils: That Cowsills doc is good. And disturbingly familiar to me. The different viewpoints/memories/experiences are interesting to witness.
	9:32am dday: Family can be your best friend and/or your worst enemy
	👻 9:32am Hughie Considine: This definitely qualifies as an XTC deep track.
	9:33am dday: early 80's I worked with/for a band called Strate A's (Port Jervis,NY based, NYC showcases)
	👻 9:35am pgalub: Costello Show version of this one is interesting.
	9:35am Handy Haversack: This ... isn't on Blood and Chocolate? The EC&TA album? Clearly, I'm missing something! Ah, it's a bonus track on the CD, which I have.
	9:35am Mechanical Turquoise: The Cowsills had some fun songs, but their version of "Hair" (a) kinda sucks, and (b) leaves out the funniest line in the song: They'll be gaga at the go go when they see me in my toga My toga made of blond, brilliantined, biblical hair My hair like Jesus wore it, Hallelujah, I adore it Hallelujah, Mary loved her son, why don't my mother love me?
	9:35am dday: I prefer the Blood & Chocolate version
	9:36am Roberto: I like the Cowsills' version of Hair.
	9:37am StringOFperils: I remember The Cowsills' HAIR being one of the best things on the radio at the time. Pretty sure.
	👻 9:37am yerfriendpaul: I like how different both of his versions are
	9:37am Strandlund: @yerfriendpaul...Robin's egg?
	👻 9:37am yerfriendpaul: Strandlund - ha ha! I think you’ve hit it!
	9:37am Asheville Jon: drat, no Foreigner :(
	9:38am Handy Haversack: dday: the WikiP says the B&C version is the single version! I'm learning all over the place here!
	9:38am Brendan: Blue Cheer
	9:38am wind: ♥️
	9:38am dday: Cowsills, Hair..#2 in the US #1 elsewhere
	9:39am Mechanical Turquoise: Maybe I'm extra judgy because I grew up listening to the OBCR version and was grumpy about the omission when I heard the Cowsills' take
	9:39am Handy Haversack: Ah, I see, a one-second difference. Two different tracks. Yes. Go on about your business.
	9:39am dday: @HH: That's EC for ya. You never know what he's going to do :)
	9:40am StringOFperils: It's okay not to like hugely popular tunes. Going in another direction is where innovation happens.
	9:40am Roberto: Some veins are, in fact, blue.
	9:42am Dano59: The BEST version of 'Blue Chair'! I always thought .. nope ... that single version is a one-off and a lot faster than the album cut.
	9:43am Mechanical Turquoise: Veins of lapis lazuli in the side of a mountain
	9:44am Dano59: So is it the one? Or was it just the UK single? (collected on 'Out of Our Idiot') ... I have a huge Barney Bubbles poster for it that says "Four-Eyes' Latest Waxing is a Foot-Stomping Screamer!!"
	9:44am Joe McG: @Dano: "A foot-stomping screamer"!
	9:47am dday: Blue Chair Written by Declan MacManus Performed by Elvis Costello & The Attractions Produced by Nick Lowe with Colin Fairley Musicians Elvis Costello - vocals, guitar Steve Nieve - keyboards Bruce Thomas - bass Pete Thomas - drums Nick Lowe - acoustic guitar Recorded March-May 1986, Olympic Studios, London Released September 15, 1986 Albums Blood & Chocolate, 1986 Promos Highlights From Blood & Chocolate, 1986 Visa Sampler, 2007 Length 3:38 First known performance: March 9, 1985, London, England Last known performance: May 17, 2020, The Daily Improvisation (112 known performances) Alternate versions Blue Chair (Single Version) Performed by Elvis Costello (credit on sleeve) The Costello Show (credit on label) Produced by The Coward Brothers ("A Coward Brothers Production") Recorded by Henry Coward & Larry Hirsch Mixed by Howard Coward & Colin Fairley Musicians Elvis Costello - vocals, acoustic guitar T-Bone Wolk - electric guitar, bass Mitchell Froom - organ Mickey Curry - drums Recorded ca.

	9:47am Dano59: ... Wikipedia can be wrong, and so can Discogs, both being crowedsourced. People suck, i tells ya. (going to the Costello wiki now)
	9:48am morphe': Mambo for Cats https://www.jimflora.com/prints/album-cover-art/mambo-for-cats/ The poster (silk screen?)was (and hopefully will again be) available at the FMU record fairs ... great gift for cat lovers...
	9:49am Yes: howdy all
	👻 9:51am Webhamster Henry: I'm so glad the British invaded and squashed this kind of music.
	9:52am TonyR: This is one fast chick. She starts with pulling on the wishbone, then moves on to kissing.
	9:52am Dano59: elviscostello.info says Blue Chair (single version) was the only single - not the album track. whew!
	9:53am TonyR: Couple weeks ago, McGasko started off with an entire set from the supposed "dark ages" of American music. The Beatles really did ruin everything.
	9:54am Dano59: uh, thanks, dday. same source.
	9:57am b0b0b0b0b Plasticland: Good Music ...thanks Joe!! luv it
	9:57am TonyR: Hypoglycemia is a b*tch mistress.
	9:58am Miss G: What a sweet groan 45 to tune in to!
	9:58am Son Of Pantz: There's always room for Thurl.
	9:58am Erin in TO: Late to the party today, but good morning folks
	9:59am dday: @Dano: The LP version is quite different. Much more acoustic guitar oriented, less produced overall especially the vocal. There's points in the LP vocal where he overloads the mic which I like
	👻 10:00am Hughie Considine: This song is GRRRRRRRREEEAAT!
	10:01am TonyR: 1955? Methinks it was Presley who put this nonsense to rest, not John, Paul, George and Ringo.
	10:02am TonyR: Pumpkin Spice '55!
	10:03am Dr. White as Adversary: After being the patsy for not one, but two residential fires, another chill dude in an Arby's uniform (ostensibly he works at Arby's, but I have my doubts) belligerently and insultingly tells me not to smoke on the porch despite a.) I haven't even come within 10 feet of the front door b.) it's raining cats and dogs and finally c.) the above mentioned product of toxic leadership culture smoked a couple blunts everyday for a month ensconced in an indoor spare room with the smoke detector disengaged for a month after the second fire, the blame for the fire, of course, being laid at my feet.
	👻 10:03am Brian in UK: What about Sinatra, In the Wee Small Hours?
	10:04am TonyR: Arby's: We Have the Heat.
	10:05am Dr. White as Adversary: It would not surprise me
	👻 10:06am Webhamster Henry: There were about 10 TV cowboy shows on the air at the time.
	10:07am TonyR: "Hot to Trot", in honor of Arby's on Fire.
	10:08am Son Of Pantz: I had the "hot trots" last time I traveled to Mexico.
	10:10am timinoak: The X-Files show should restart focused on America in the 50s.
	10:10am Miss G: What a group of songs! Do you think the radio sounded like this? I'm trying to envision my mother and her transistor, where was she? I guess, in Catholic junior college. She was the May Queen. Maybe they played these Shenandoah Valley Boys at the dance~
	10:10am Beast of Boonton: "Uncle Jessie" on the jug
	10:11am iiibeat: Well . . Cracklin' crackers . .
	10:13am Dr. White as Adversary: January 2020, height of the pandemic, I definitely did not have heat, thanks to Dr. White calling the fuzz by proxy on some immigrants, algunos arreglados and some not, because pranks are fun and wake people up and no one gets hurt.
	10:14am ledzeppelinsucks: Tony The Tiger voice actor died a few years ago.
	10:14am The Oscar: Strictly speaking, Boris Karloff was the voice of the Grinch-- Thurl was just the voice in the Grinch's head singing about how much he sucks :)
	👻 10:15am Ken From Hyde Park: Speaking of ... this show so far is grrrrreat!
	10:15am TonyR: You kids and your wind-up Victrolas!
	10:16am TonyR: For kicks, play an album side now.
	10:17am TonyR: i already like Cher's version better.
	10:17am Miss G: Oh! I just gave my niece in law an LP of The Byrds Greatest Hits that I had found. But wouldn't a stack of 45s have been great?
	10:18am ledzeppelinsucks: Tony The Tiger announced on Tic Toc today that she is now Tanya The Tiger. Congratulations Tanya, we all love You. That's G-R-R-R-E-E-A-A-T
	10:18am Dr. White as Adversary: Ring around the rosie, pockets full of posies, ashes, ashes, we all fall down
	10:19am Will: Some different mixes than the LP versions? Very cool.
	10:19am Joe McG: @Miss G: It's nice to give the gift of the Byrds in any format!
	10:20am timinoak: The 60s is what happened after the fever dream of the 50s. Not just in music.
	10:20am Alvy Singer: Hi Joe. The show has been an absolute joy to get Monday rolling.
	10:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Bach to the Future...
	10:22am Joe McG: @Alvy: Thank you, Alvy! Having fun as ever. @Will: Yes, I think the single versions are sometimes different, but Bob Irwin of Big Planet Noise is the man to go to for the full story!
	👻 10:23am Webhamster Henry: The Byrds are great fun!
	👻 10:23am yerfriendpaul: Love that classical nod in the solo. What’s the piece he’s referencing?
	10:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring iirc.
	10:24am TonyR: Durin "Singles Going Steady" week, do DJs pee into bottles like truckers?
	10:26am Jason from Houston: Good morning. Enjoying these Byrds songs back to back a lot.
	👻 10:26am Webhamster Henry: @timinoak X-Files knock off "Dark Skies" was set in the early 60s, and yes , the hero's name was John Loengard, suspiciously like mine and a famous LIFE Magazine photographer's.
	10:26am Joe M: The Best “Everyone’s burned Before”
	10:27am Aaron in Minneapolis: No Ken supplied all of them medical portable urnials, at least it works for the men
	10:27am Joe McG: Some of these are in better shape than others, but I kind of like when Byrds 45s get a little distorted since the chiming guitars get grittier and fortell the future.
	👻 10:28am tadpoles: Thanks for the genius of the Byrds Joe....great on 45.
	👻 10:28am yerfriendpaul: Rev Rabbit - ahhhh, Bach ( a little MAS*H reference)
	👻 10:28am Ken From Hyde Park: I'm partial to the fugue.
	10:29am Joe McG: @Ken: Ha ha!
	10:29am Will: Just drowning happily in a sea of Rickenbackers.
	10:29am Miss G: Thank you Webhamster Henry, I'm going to look for "Dark Skies!"
	10:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: BYrdS like thee transitional artist from the 'She Loves You' era to everything that followed. I wonder if people still reckon their relevance anymore. I doubt it. & with a resonance of the Folk movement of the early 60s - still in JFK's New Frontier practically to hear their demos & developmental trax. Lots of subtext...
	10:30am Joe M: No steampunk kids though
	10:31am PJ: @RevRabbit: The Byrds were a big influence on many, many acts in the late '70s and '80s, most prominently Tom Petty and R.E.M.
	👻 10:32am Brian in UK: Joe. Love this set. Was thinking earlier of Old Blue for the first set. McGuinn turned my head in 1965 & it has not looked back.
	10:33am Joe McG: @Brian: I wish I had some 45s of the Clarence White years, but alas, I do not yet have 'em.
	👻 10:34am yerfriendpaul: I saw Roger McGuinn backed up by Wilco. Those Byrds tunes really resonated live. Amazing show
	👻 10:35am Brian in UK: Joe, funny when Sweetheart was released (first Byrds record I bought on release) I never had any hangups about it being country. It was all new & normal to me.
	👻 10:36am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Morning all....shaking off the cobwebs....
	10:37am Roberto: I'm not sure what the Bach/MAS*H reference is, but I'm guessing it involves Charles Emerson Winchester.
	👻 10:37am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Gotta go back and listen to Clay's show and the start of this one later...
	10:38am Roberto: Sorry, Charles Emerson Winchester III.
	👻 10:38am Brian in UK: Early Byrds wrote & purloined good songs but were not great live. From Dr Byrds the opposite was true.
	10:39am StringOFperils: Wow. This was a single. ( I can't clearly remember those times, but I both like and miss this song.)
	10:39am J-W from B: Ha! Circle time! Used to light up My Monday morning. (Sunday night in NJ)
	10:39am Handy Haversack: Roberto, I missed the beginning of the convo (stupid work), but I know that when Hawkeye was giving Radar dating advice, he recommended putting a hand to cheek and saying, "Ahhh, Bach," whenever the conversation seemed too confusing.
	10:39am Joe McG: @Roberto: Hawkeye and Trapper give Radar a few stock phrases to get by with a new nurse he's trying to impress who is into "culture."
	👻 10:39am yerfriendpaul: Roberto - ha ha, good guess! It was actually a moment when Hawkeye was coaching Radar to appear more worldly. Radar was pining for a nurse who liked classical. So Hawkeye coached him to respond with “ahh, Bach” anytime music was brought up
	👻 10:39am Ken From Hyde Park: Radar trying to impress a nurse. mash.fandom.com...
	10:39am Mark from Columbus Ohio: Thanks for playing all these Byrds songs. Hope you get to Hickory Wind.
	👻 10:40am Brian in UK: See the Sky About to Rain on the reunion, Gene makes it his own.
	👻 10:40am DjLorraine: I was at the dentist. Can someone spare a yip?
	10:40am Roberto: Oh lol I must have missed that. My daughter and I were talking about rewatching the series, so I'll look for it. Incidentally, I'll be seeing Hotlips and Klinger at Rhode Island Comic Con in a few weeks!
	👻 10:40am Hughie Considine: yip
	10:40am timinoak: Thanks Henry. Will look that up.
	👻 10:41am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @DjLorraine Yip Yip Yip! How did the crown prep go?
	10:41am Roberto: Henry Blake?
	10:42am P-90: Look at you guys with your encyclopedic command of MAS*H. Very impressive.
	10:42am johnk77: sweetheart of the rodeo my gateway drug to country rock @pj above correct about byrds influence on petty band petty and campbell toured with lots of rickenbackers and vox backline
	👻 10:42am yerfriendpaul: Roberto - fantastic! Love the whole cast
	10:43am TDK60: Golly Joe-- missin' a Byrds set is not a good way to start my week.
	👻 10:43am DjLorraine: Hughie Considine ty Threemoons great ty
	10:43am Roberto: Correction, Hot Lips.
	10:44am wind: 20 whole minutes??!
	10:44am Roberto: Yes! Bring the hate!
	👻 10:44am Brian in UK: Go Joe.
	10:45am rx scabin: Good morning.
	10:45am ledzeppelinsucks: Play a pile of Queen 45's and you'll hear about me on the news.
	10:45am Miss G: Oh my. I'm very curious to hear what Joe hates!
	10:45am Joe M: Muskrat love.. muskrat love… please muskrat
	👻 10:45am Oxidized: stoked for the hate!
	10:45am Strandlund: This might be fun...
	👻 10:45am yerfriendpaul: This is science! I’m on board with this, Joe! Let the torture commence!
	10:45am Dean: If I were a DJ I would hope routinely to play songs and artists I don't like. I think it's a great idea.
	10:45am BLCKDGRD: O! You must have mixed up *Blue Bayou" and played it in the wrong set!
	10:45am Krys O.: HA!
	10:45am JeremyB: LOL
	10:45am Roberto: NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
	10:45am Buckaroo: Oh god
	10:45am Miss G: I HATE IT TOO!
	👻 10:45am Yetz: Noooooooooo!
	10:45am nathan: bracing myself for Hotel California
	10:45am Joe M: Yeah even better
	10:46am Handy Haversack: Ha, I get to use this twice in a day!!! frinkiac.com...
	10:46am BillyLundun: Heck yes! I broke my neibours shed window to this song!!
	10:46am Erin in TO: I'm not going to say this is my fave song, but it's not nearly as bad as I was prepping for
	10:46am Dominick: ARRRRRRRRGH!!!!
	10:46am mndave: Fingers crossed for comical inner-groove warble!
	10:46am P-90: I believe the degree of influence the Byrds had ion other musicians and bands in a certain period is greatly underestimated. Partly because: you can’t necessarily “hear” that influence specifically in their music.
	10:46am chris_in_space: Oh no you didn't, @joe
	10:46am Smacky: Wow perfect first choice
	👻 10:46am SeaCreature: We bilked this city! Can billy Joel be far behind
	👻 10:46am yerfriendpaul: What happens if we grow to like the songs? Shiver
	10:46am Hawkeye: Nice start!
	10:46am People Like Us: I bet Matt Warwick would play this
	10:46am Dean: Kinda charming that the label remains Grunt on this one.
	10:46am ledzeppelinsucks: I remedied this song on Saturday by going to the El Rio and seeing Kicker, Pins of Light, The Grannies, Fleshies and Fracas.
	👻 10:46am DjLorraine: en.m.wikipedia.org... RIP Joe Bussard, record collector
	10:46am Kelly Jones: Y E S Y E S Y E S Y E S JOE… Big Balls, LOVE IT
	10:46am chris_in_space: Something tells me this set will be pure fire.
	10:46am Susan See: Well, you were right. Volume went down after the fourth note.
	10:47am paddy in matawan: oh boy Stern had an amazing parody of this. You are just going to have to search it for yourself though.
	10:47am JetBoy now of Astoria: Wow I have hated this song my whole. Corporate rockers signing about how lame corporate rock is. Got that right!
	👻 10:47am Brian in UK: Dean, just thinking the same.
	10:47am People Like Us: herro Kelly
	10:47am Kat in Chicago: Off to a “promising” hate-listen start here
	10:47am ?: i agree completely about this one though ive heard this is the j a hit!
	10:47am BillyLundun: corperation games!
	10:47am ledzeppelinsucks: And saw the Queers at Bottom of The Hill of Friday. That's the City By The Bay.
	10:47am People Like Us: but I like this
	10:47am People Like Us: it's funny
	10:47am bradford: yup, this be a stinker
	10:47am Cyn: Joe I love you why are you treating me this way????!!!! I suffered through your Byrds but I have boundaries, I have dignity. I’m leaving you. We’re through!
	10:47am Krys O.: I am inured to it from having to hear it ad infinitum working at a record store in 1985.
	👻 10:47am Hughie Considine: I just pledged during this aural atrocity. That's how much I love WFMU.
	10:47am nathan: how did a city built on rock & roll even pass code
	10:48am Joe McG: It's surprisingly long!
	👻 10:48am yerfriendpaul: All those years of expanding my musical horizons, down the tubes
	10:48am cowboy Al: OMG 🤮

	10:49am timinoak: I have sung this to sf tourists from my bike!
	10:50am P-90: From the Craig Chaquico on lead guitar period I believe

	👻 10:50am Brian in UK: @ DjLorraine Did you catch this on the Drummer Stream? wfmu.org...
	10:50am Dean: Exactly, Hughie Considine. If Gaylord Fields were programming this set he might have included Bowie, for example.
	10:50am Handy Haversack: frinkiac.com...
	10:50am Strandlund: Okay...I gotta go get my bucket..
	10:50am wind: ♥️♥️♥️

	10:55am JeremyB: Are these singles you own?
	10:55am Erin in TO: This is getting painful, but I can't tune out because it's also still fun some how. Am I masochist?
	10:56am Michael Perazzetti: ... but is it absolutely necessary to make everyone suffer along with you, when you could easily accomplish something incredibly productive by blasting this for your annoying neighbor instead?

	10:56am People Like Us: a certain WFMU DJ plays ONLY this...
	10:56am Susan See: All from the same era. No wonder we all sought alternate music!
	10:56am Andy: This is worse than We Built This City. And Joe Cocker sucks. There, I said it.

	10:57am P-90: Lemme guess: Against All Odds by Phil Collins coming up?
	10:57am Smacky: It's not masochism, it's irony.
	10:57am Dr. Jones: Everyone do the wave
	10:57am Miss G: What's that "Most Wanted Song?" I love that parody of this. Handy would know. The guy wrote the math/music book.
	👻 10:57am Webhamster Henry: Honey, I miss you tying a yellow ribbon 'round the old oak tree because I never promised you a rose garden.

	10:57am Cowboy Al: 0-3 Joe
	10:57am Kelly Jones: Bette Davis Eyes Joe, Bette Davis Eyes!
	10:57am Dean: My dentist plays pretty decent stuff, actually. But the real pleasure is the ultrasonic cleaner and the suction, especially when the cleaner hits a spot that sends a sonic laser-beam at 20kHz straight up my jaw. Could listen to that all day.
	10:58am Creature Boy: Turbulent indeed ...somebody called "officer" Buffy St Marie got a Grammy or an Oscar or some MuthErfucKin thing for this & your Dad Rockin Dad explained how Cocker used to b cool
	👻 10:58am Ken From Hyde Park: Now that I think of it, Elton John's "Blue Eyes" was conspicuously missing from the first set.
	10:58am Joe McG: Yes, these are all from the early '80s. Someone gave me a pile of them and I couldn't resist sharing them with you.

	10:58am People Like Us: Dave Soldier's Most Unwanted is my favourite song ever
	10:58am Mick: @P-90 she definitely is. Her love of super cheesy music is oddly endearing
	10:58am Dean: I await Yes, "Don't Kill the Whales."
	👻 10:58am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: OK I still say that "Separate Lives" will happen, but in the vein of "hate-listen"--Dancing in the Streets Bowie/Jagger
	10:59am timurf: dear gawd i am at my '86 prom
	10:59am mndave: This is perfect accompaniment for rushing to finish something before an 11AM call, because time is absolutely crawling to this soundtrack. Love it
	10:59am Mark of Sea Bright: tonight i celebrate: 1
	10:59am Roberto: My dentist's office music has actually improved lately, but nothing can justify singing and humming along to it while people are undergoing procedures.
	10:59am Son Of Pantz: "Let's welcome the bride and groom to the dance floor!"
	👻 10:59am chresti: I see these duets performed on some awards shows in the early 80s

	10:59am Dean: So am I, timurf, and I graduated way before '86.
	10:59am Tinley Park Randy: Common thread….Bad 80’s production

	11:00am People Like Us: Matt Warwick, I was saying up the page that you'd play all of this!
	👻 11:00am Hughie Considine: My dentist plays cover versions of extremely popular songs, like "Brown Eyed Girl" done by a slightly raspy voiced dude and a guitar.
	11:00am Creature Boy: You can see the dew beading up on the roses wrapped in CELLAPHANE
	11:00am Krys O.: Jeffrey Osborne with LTD was great! Back in Love Again is a favorite.

	11:00am Hawkeye: there is no love in this song
	11:00am People Like Us: well I would too, but I'd probably put something over the top of it
	11:00am JetBoy now of Astoria: I would be remiss if I didn’t say we have a serious vibe going here
	11:00am Miss G: PLU my guy and I used to sing part of "Most Unwanted Song" whenever the day was going wrong.
	11:00am Kelly Jones: WHY do I know the words to these songs???????????????
	11:01am Stanley: Cheese sandwich, please with extra cheese.

	11:01am People Like Us: ha ha Miss G
	11:01am Kelly Jones: @Stanley... I'll have one, too!
	11:01am People Like Us: I think Joe should just do THIS now FOREVER
	👻 11:01am MasterofPuberty: Did you know Peabo Bryson & Roberta Flack recorded this song while emptying out their CFC aerosol cans into the night sky so they could recylcle them? Recycling being all the rage in 1983.

	11:02am Dean: It's hard not to like Dolly, just as it was almost hard not to like Joe Cocker.
	11:02am Matt Warwick: Oh BABY
	11:02am bobsmart567: Yay Barry Gibb!
	11:02am listener james from westwood: Islands! Massive crossover hit. Propelled the establishment of TWO country FM stations in the Tri-State Area in the Carter–early Reagan era.
	11:02am The Oscar: This set just feels like "CVS Bangers" without the gunshots and airhorns.
	11:02am Dr No: Kenny just checked in to see what condition his execrable cheese was in.
	11:02am maria collins: someone kidnapped Jonesey's records.

	👻 11:03am James in ATL: I have a Jukebox from Hell playlist on Spotify. 666 Songs that are channel changers. The worst songs of all time. Horrible dreck. Not responsible for damage caused by playing these songs. Great for ejecting unwanted house guests - crank this and even cockroaches leave the premises. This is making me sub in some songs I missed.
	11:03am C in Thailand: Islands in the Stream isn't good but it's the best in this 80's set by a large margin.
	11:04am maria collins: play "then came you" by the spinners/dionne warwick.
	11:04am People Like Us: crafty change of key there
	👻 11:04am Ken From Hyde Park: A song dedicated to kidney stones, as I understand it.
	11:04am ledzeppelinsucks: Dolly Parton is a freaking fraud. I saw her lousy show at Hardly Strictly about 2012. She was lip syncing and the sound failed, her track went out and then the music faded out. The band kept their charade by miming their instruments. The vocal track came back on and then the band tracks came back. Total rip off. She is a lie.
	11:04am Creature Boy: Double daring Joe to do an ENTIRE show like this. Hey I think my friend Joey plays on this Kenny Dolly song. I actually had ro explain to him about th whole Ghetto Superstar thing
	11:04am Matt Warwick: ^^^ PFFFFT

	11:05am Kelly Jones: I pledged $50 because Joe is going to need a new office chair that is capable of handling his manhood. Who's with me?

	11:06am Goyim in the AM: @ledzepplinsucks: I have come to accept mime artists with and without talent as something most people can't notice and don't care about. Not a battle worth fighting. generally.

	11:08am ledzeppelinsucks: This type of trash was produced and pushed to fill and counter the 'devil worship' and bands that PMRC opposed. They approved this crap.

	11:08am JetBoy now of Astoria: These songs made up the majority of what my high school fm radio played, just add some Toto and 38 Special et Al and we are there. It was a radio desert, only terrible music could survive the fraught I guess. These tunes are the cockroach of music.

	11:12am Matt Warwick: I wish was alive from 1980-1085 :(
	11:12am JetBoy now of Astoria: This song was very controversial at the time as we were all trying to save energy back then and Neil was a one man energy wasting disaster - the president had to call him to ask him to cool it with this song
	👻 11:12am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @-жеи: you realize that this means that you have to give us an antidote show Wednesday. Maybe all Medieval covers of metal music or vice-versa.

	11:17am Dr No: Looks like I chose the wrong day to give up taking amphetamines.
	11:17am Rick A: Hi Joe and All, Unfortunately, I just have a few minutes between meetings to listen. I notice that three of your 80s tracks are film related. The 80s were when the cinematic pop song really took off with soundtracks selling into the millions.
	11:18am Dean: What counts, Stevel, is the pledge gauge.
	11:18am P-90: Never thought I’d ever actually have to beg for mercy from Joe McGasko of all people

	👻 11:18am yerfriendpaul: Ha ha!
	11:18am maria collins: @ paddy in matawan: I'm sure it was featured in Weird N.J. at some point.

	11:19am Smacky: Atrocity begets atrocity...
	11:19am Handy Haversack: Why do I have "She's Like the Wind" stuck in my head now?
	11:19am stavros: That was like those soft rock compilation commercials they used to air saturday afternoons in the 90s
	11:19am JetBoy now of Astoria: I just watched Arthur 2. It’s like 2 different movies - starts out sorta funny, flips into stupid sit-com with a happy Hollywood ending.

	11:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Interesting. More just a huge '?' over my head than any cultural PTSD. The 70s more for that here...
	11:21am Miss G: So, the only song that made the bile rise up, was "We Built This City," with "Footloose" going on mute. An interesting experiment! Thank you Joe! I'm sure the pledges are rolling in!
	11:21am rw: Bermuda, bahama...
	11:22am Dean: None of these tracks is likely to appear even on World's Worst Records. What does that mean?
	11:22am JetBoy now of Astoria: @webhamster - that’s why I watched it!
	11:22am Dr No: Jeffrey Osbourne's backing band on 'On the Wings of Love' was actually Killing Joke.
	11:22am βrian: Hah, I just not tuned in. I gather I've been spared some pain?

	👻 11:24am yerfriendpaul: Joe, you’re giving a brains a good stretching today

	11:24am rw: Joe, you're insane.
	👻 11:24am Brian in UK: Guilt by association?
	11:24am Dr No: Dean, we need to exert some public pressure and make that collaboration happen!
	11:24am Dean: Laura Nyro, "Stoned Cold Picnic"
	11:25am PJ: Bert Convy was a singer too
	11:25am Creature Boy: We can take it joe but I must admit I'm not reaching for checkbook . So.....as sociological experiments go....
	11:25am Goyim in the AM: Chuck Woolery is a wad.
	👻 11:25am yerfriendpaul: Stoned and Starving is next (hopefully)
	11:25am Rick A: I love this song. I first heard it on Billy Kelly's show and managed to find it on YouTube. I won't say what I did next unless some lawyers are trolling FMU live playlists.
	11:25am Roberto: Oh gawd it's right-wing dipshit Chuck Woolery.

	11:26am Matt: It was delightful to hear all those excrutiating songs -- felt like the credits were rolling after seeing a mainstream movie in the 80s.
	11:26am TexasTrey: Fire
	11:26am Joe B: chi-lites next?
	11:26am JetBoy now of Astoria: @webhamster h: great idea! Andy could host and give the back story about how the Hollywood hacks wrecked his vision - watching Arthur 2 I thought there is a story being this movie… the making of it that is
	11:26am Dean: There are no songs whose titles begin with "Love..."!
	11:27am Joe B: ah great one!
	11:27am Krys O.: Palate cleansing!
	11:27am Jason from Houston: Ohhhhhh my heart. Sooooooo good.
	11:27am Rick A: Damn! I have to go now. I anticipate hearing this show's archive, given my deep appreciation for The Byrds.
	11:27am Joe B: love removal machine next?
	11:27am The Oscar: Are you going to close the circle by ending with "Alone Again Naturally?"
	11:27am maria collins: Yes! Chi-Lites !!! :D
	11:27am Miss G: I brought "Stoned Love" to "classroom break dance party" and the teacher got mad. I was mystified.
	11:27am βrian: Maybe Olive, then?
	11:27am Creature Boy: Your analyst HASNT stopped scribbling on his note pad , Joe
	👻 11:27am Brian in UK: Dean, good try, too sophisticated though.
	11:28am C in Thailand: Both the artist name and song title of The Avant Garde song reminds me of that Simpsons episode in which Bart and friends go see Naked Lunch.
	11:28am Dr No: Is Sun Ra's 'Love in Outer Space' next then?
	11:28am Robm: @Miss G it had the word stoned:)
	11:29am PJ: Wikipedia tells me that this was written and recorded as "Stone Love" but was mislabeled leading to some drug controversy
	11:29am StringOFperils: Love To Love You Baby? Love TKO?
	11:29am Dean: Oh, right, Dr No. There is one song whose title begins with "Love..."
	11:29am Miss G: Thank you Robm! ;-)
	11:30am Dean: (Now, see, I would have relegated just about any Talking Heads song to the "hate" set. But this is the one TH song I enjoy.)
	11:30am JeremyB: Is firestarter from the Prodigy up next! Called it!
	11:30am paddy in matawan: Ween - Love. First lyric "Love. It's such an easy game to play."
	11:30am maria collins: Is the next song about fire? I see a pattern.
	11:30am Handy Haversack: I think it will be "Fire, We Didn't Start the."
	11:31am Robm: @Miss G (G)
	11:31am Dean: If he spins Ohio Players' "Fire," Joe will be stuck in an endless loop.

	11:31am Creature Boy: "Stone Love" was phrase uttered in association with a street gang called the PR Stones in the 1970s Chicago neighborhood of Lakeview. True story

	11:35am The Oscar: You know, I don't think I've heard any Chilliwack apart from the one song Rick Moranis covered on SCTV.
	11:35am Dean: This game set complements well my efforts to write a sestina. Not exactly the same rules, but similar.
	11:35am Brendan: 👍
	11:36am Blix: Could you get a Seger tune for every one of these thus far? Level II of The Chain Game.
	11:36am Dean: James Brown, "Night Train."

	11:41am βrian: So "daybreak" or "break?"
	👻 11:41am Webhamster Henry: What, not Barry Manilow's Daybreak?

	9:27am Joe McG: @dday: They used to play in Allentown a lot back in the day. Hey, pete!
	9:29am Strandlund: I take it that it's too early for "Blue Christmas?"
	9:29am morphe': "Directed by Santa Barbara-based Louise Palanker, Family Band: The Cowsills Story is an engaging, in-depth, and fascinating look at how one of the most popular bands of the 1960s — and probably the most ambitious and inclusive family-based group — crumbled under the weight of an abusive father-manager. Following the band from its early days on Ed Sullivan, when they played with an instinctual sibling harmony and inspired the creation of The Partridge Family, all the way through the more recent deaths of some family members today, the emotional but fun doc makes us remember the band whose version of “Hair” — not to mention the song “The Rain, The Park, and Other Things,” which you’d know if you heard it — is burned in everyone’s mind. " https://www.independent.com/2012/02/01/family-band-cowsills-story/
	9:30am dday: @Joe: Yes. My love Mef Gannon has been friends with them forever > All out of the Hackettstown music scene. Tim Carbone is still around doing Railroad Earth & production work. Sadly we've lost Tucker, Andy Goessling & Stephen Kerlinger (Buck Dilley)
	9:30am Joe McG: @Strandlund: You know, I don't think I even have a copy of that one. @morphe: Thanks for the link!
	👻 9:30am yerfriendpaul: Would you describe this mix as a royal blue, navy or powder?
	9:31am Krys O.: Thanks for this XTC!
	9:31am Handy Haversack: I like that this was a single!
	9:31am StringOFperils: That Cowsills doc is good. And disturbingly familiar to me. The different viewpoints/memories/experiences are interesting to witness.
	9:32am dday: Family can be your best friend and/or your worst enemy
	👻 9:32am Hughie Considine: This definitely qualifies as an XTC deep track.
	9:33am dday: early 80's I worked with/for a band called Strate A's (Port Jervis,NY based, NYC showcases)
	👻 9:35am pgalub: Costello Show version of this one is interesting.
	9:35am Handy Haversack: This ... isn't on Blood and Chocolate? The EC&TA album? Clearly, I'm missing something! Ah, it's a bonus track on the CD, which I have.
	9:35am Mechanical Turquoise: The Cowsills had some fun songs, but their version of "Hair" (a) kinda sucks, and (b) leaves out the funniest line in the song: They'll be gaga at the go go when they see me in my toga My toga made of blond, brilliantined, biblical hair My hair like Jesus wore it, Hallelujah, I adore it Hallelujah, Mary loved her son, why don't my mother love me?
	9:35am dday: I prefer the Blood & Chocolate version
	9:36am Roberto: I like the Cowsills' version of Hair.
	9:37am StringOFperils: I remember The Cowsills' HAIR being one of the best things on the radio at the time. Pretty sure.
	👻 9:37am yerfriendpaul: I like how different both of his versions are
	9:37am Strandlund: @yerfriendpaul...Robin's egg?
	👻 9:37am yerfriendpaul: Strandlund - ha ha! I think you’ve hit it!
	9:37am Asheville Jon: drat, no Foreigner :(
	9:38am Handy Haversack: dday: the WikiP says the B&C version is the single version! I'm learning all over the place here!
	9:38am Brendan: Blue Cheer
	9:38am wind: ♥️
	9:38am dday: Cowsills, Hair..#2 in the US #1 elsewhere
	9:39am Mechanical Turquoise: Maybe I'm extra judgy because I grew up listening to the OBCR version and was grumpy about the omission when I heard the Cowsills' take
	9:39am Handy Haversack: Ah, I see, a one-second difference. Two different tracks. Yes. Go on about your business.
	9:39am dday: @HH: That's EC for ya. You never know what he's going to do :)
	9:40am StringOFperils: It's okay not to like hugely popular tunes. Going in another direction is where innovation happens.
	9:40am Roberto: Some veins are, in fact, blue.
	9:42am Dano59: The BEST version of 'Blue Chair'! I always thought .. nope ... that single version is a one-off and a lot faster than the album cut.
	9:43am Mechanical Turquoise: Veins of lapis lazuli in the side of a mountain
	9:44am Dano59: So is it the one? Or was it just the UK single? (collected on 'Out of Our Idiot') ... I have a huge Barney Bubbles poster for it that says "Four-Eyes' Latest Waxing is a Foot-Stomping Screamer!!"
	9:44am Joe McG: @Dano: "A foot-stomping screamer"!

	9:47am Dano59: ... Wikipedia can be wrong, and so can Discogs, both being crowedsourced. People suck, i tells ya. (going to the Costello wiki now)
	9:48am morphe': Mambo for Cats https://www.jimflora.com/prints/album-cover-art/mambo-for-cats/ The poster (silk screen?)was (and hopefully will again be) available at the FMU record fairs ... great gift for cat lovers...
	9:49am Yes: howdy all
	👻 9:51am Webhamster Henry: I'm so glad the British invaded and squashed this kind of music.
	9:52am TonyR: This is one fast chick. She starts with pulling on the wishbone, then moves on to kissing.
	9:52am Dano59: elviscostello.info says Blue Chair (single version) was the only single - not the album track. whew!
	9:53am TonyR: Couple weeks ago, McGasko started off with an entire set from the supposed "dark ages" of American music. The Beatles really did ruin everything.
	9:54am Dano59: uh, thanks, dday. same source.
	9:57am b0b0b0b0b Plasticland: Good Music ...thanks Joe!! luv it
	9:57am TonyR: Hypoglycemia is a b*tch mistress.

	9:58am Son Of Pantz: There's always room for Thurl.
	9:58am Erin in TO: Late to the party today, but good morning folks
	9:59am dday: @Dano: The LP version is quite different. Much more acoustic guitar oriented, less produced overall especially the vocal. There's points in the LP vocal where he overloads the mic which I like
	👻 10:00am Hughie Considine: This song is GRRRRRRRREEEAAT!
	10:01am TonyR: 1955? Methinks it was Presley who put this nonsense to rest, not John, Paul, George and Ringo.
	10:02am TonyR: Pumpkin Spice '55!
	10:03am Dr. White as Adversary: After being the patsy for not one, but two residential fires, another chill dude in an Arby's uniform (ostensibly he works at Arby's, but I have my doubts) belligerently and insultingly tells me not to smoke on the porch despite a.) I haven't even come within 10 feet of the front door b.) it's raining cats and dogs and finally c.) the above mentioned product of toxic leadership culture smoked a couple blunts everyday for a month ensconced in an indoor spare room with the smoke detector disengaged for a month after the second fire, the blame for the fire, of course, being laid at my feet.
	👻 10:03am Brian in UK: What about Sinatra, In the Wee Small Hours?
	10:04am TonyR: Arby's: We Have the Heat.
	10:05am Dr. White as Adversary: It would not surprise me
	👻 10:06am Webhamster Henry: There were about 10 TV cowboy shows on the air at the time.
	10:07am TonyR: "Hot to Trot", in honor of Arby's on Fire.
	10:08am Son Of Pantz: I had the "hot trots" last time I traveled to Mexico.
	10:10am timinoak: The X-Files show should restart focused on America in the 50s.
	10:10am Miss G: What a group of songs! Do you think the radio sounded like this? I'm trying to envision my mother and her transistor, where was she? I guess, in Catholic junior college. She was the May Queen. Maybe they played these Shenandoah Valley Boys at the dance~
	10:10am Beast of Boonton: "Uncle Jessie" on the jug
	10:11am iiibeat: Well . . Cracklin' crackers . .
	10:13am Dr. White as Adversary: January 2020, height of the pandemic, I definitely did not have heat, thanks to Dr. White calling the fuzz by proxy on some immigrants, algunos arreglados and some not, because pranks are fun and wake people up and no one gets hurt.
	10:14am ledzeppelinsucks: Tony The Tiger voice actor died a few years ago.
	10:14am The Oscar: Strictly speaking, Boris Karloff was the voice of the Grinch-- Thurl was just the voice in the Grinch's head singing about how much he sucks :)
	👻 10:15am Ken From Hyde Park: Speaking of ... this show so far is grrrrreat!
	10:15am TonyR: You kids and your wind-up Victrolas!
	10:16am TonyR: For kicks, play an album side now.
	10:17am TonyR: i already like Cher's version better.
	10:17am Miss G: Oh! I just gave my niece in law an LP of The Byrds Greatest Hits that I had found. But wouldn't a stack of 45s have been great?
	10:18am ledzeppelinsucks: Tony The Tiger announced on Tic Toc today that she is now Tanya The Tiger. Congratulations Tanya, we all love You. That's G-R-R-R-E-E-A-A-T
	10:18am Dr. White as Adversary: Ring around the rosie, pockets full of posies, ashes, ashes, we all fall down
	10:19am Will: Some different mixes than the LP versions? Very cool.
	10:19am Joe McG: @Miss G: It's nice to give the gift of the Byrds in any format!
	10:20am timinoak: The 60s is what happened after the fever dream of the 50s. Not just in music.
	10:20am Alvy Singer: Hi Joe. The show has been an absolute joy to get Monday rolling.
	10:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Bach to the Future...
	10:22am Joe McG: @Alvy: Thank you, Alvy! Having fun as ever. @Will: Yes, I think the single versions are sometimes different, but Bob Irwin of Big Planet Noise is the man to go to for the full story!
	👻 10:23am Webhamster Henry: The Byrds are great fun!
	👻 10:23am yerfriendpaul: Love that classical nod in the solo. What’s the piece he’s referencing?
	10:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring iirc.
	10:24am TonyR: Durin "Singles Going Steady" week, do DJs pee into bottles like truckers?
	10:26am Jason from Houston: Good morning. Enjoying these Byrds songs back to back a lot.
	👻 10:26am Webhamster Henry: @timinoak X-Files knock off "Dark Skies" was set in the early 60s, and yes , the hero's name was John Loengard, suspiciously like mine and a famous LIFE Magazine photographer's.
	10:26am Joe M: The Best “Everyone’s burned Before”
	10:27am Aaron in Minneapolis: No Ken supplied all of them medical portable urnials, at least it works for the men
	10:27am Joe McG: Some of these are in better shape than others, but I kind of like when Byrds 45s get a little distorted since the chiming guitars get grittier and fortell the future.
	👻 10:28am tadpoles: Thanks for the genius of the Byrds Joe....great on 45.
	👻 10:28am yerfriendpaul: Rev Rabbit - ahhhh, Bach ( a little MAS*H reference)
	👻 10:28am Ken From Hyde Park: I'm partial to the fugue.
	10:29am Joe McG: @Ken: Ha ha!
	10:29am Will: Just drowning happily in a sea of Rickenbackers.
	10:29am Miss G: Thank you Webhamster Henry, I'm going to look for "Dark Skies!"
	10:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: BYrdS like thee transitional artist from the 'She Loves You' era to everything that followed. I wonder if people still reckon their relevance anymore. I doubt it. & with a resonance of the Folk movement of the early 60s - still in JFK's New Frontier practically to hear their demos & developmental trax. Lots of subtext...
	10:30am Joe M: No steampunk kids though
	10:31am PJ: @RevRabbit: The Byrds were a big influence on many, many acts in the late '70s and '80s, most prominently Tom Petty and R.E.M.
	👻 10:32am Brian in UK: Joe. Love this set. Was thinking earlier of Old Blue for the first set. McGuinn turned my head in 1965 & it has not looked back.
	10:33am Joe McG: @Brian: I wish I had some 45s of the Clarence White years, but alas, I do not yet have 'em.
	👻 10:34am yerfriendpaul: I saw Roger McGuinn backed up by Wilco. Those Byrds tunes really resonated live. Amazing show
	👻 10:35am Brian in UK: Joe, funny when Sweetheart was released (first Byrds record I bought on release) I never had any hangups about it being country. It was all new & normal to me.
	👻 10:36am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Morning all....shaking off the cobwebs....
	10:37am Roberto: I'm not sure what the Bach/MAS*H reference is, but I'm guessing it involves Charles Emerson Winchester.
	👻 10:37am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Gotta go back and listen to Clay's show and the start of this one later...
	10:38am Roberto: Sorry, Charles Emerson Winchester III.
	👻 10:38am Brian in UK: Early Byrds wrote & purloined good songs but were not great live. From Dr Byrds the opposite was true.
	10:39am StringOFperils: Wow. This was a single. ( I can't clearly remember those times, but I both like and miss this song.)
	10:39am J-W from B: Ha! Circle time! Used to light up My Monday morning. (Sunday night in NJ)
	10:39am Handy Haversack: Roberto, I missed the beginning of the convo (stupid work), but I know that when Hawkeye was giving Radar dating advice, he recommended putting a hand to cheek and saying, "Ahhh, Bach," whenever the conversation seemed too confusing.
	10:39am Joe McG: @Roberto: Hawkeye and Trapper give Radar a few stock phrases to get by with a new nurse he's trying to impress who is into "culture."
	👻 10:39am yerfriendpaul: Roberto - ha ha, good guess! It was actually a moment when Hawkeye was coaching Radar to appear more worldly. Radar was pining for a nurse who liked classical. So Hawkeye coached him to respond with “ahh, Bach” anytime music was brought up
	👻 10:39am Ken From Hyde Park: Radar trying to impress a nurse. mash.fandom.com...
	10:39am Mark from Columbus Ohio: Thanks for playing all these Byrds songs. Hope you get to Hickory Wind.
	👻 10:40am Brian in UK: See the Sky About to Rain on the reunion, Gene makes it his own.
	👻 10:40am DjLorraine: I was at the dentist. Can someone spare a yip?
	10:40am Roberto: Oh lol I must have missed that. My daughter and I were talking about rewatching the series, so I'll look for it. Incidentally, I'll be seeing Hotlips and Klinger at Rhode Island Comic Con in a few weeks!
	👻 10:40am Hughie Considine: yip
	10:40am timinoak: Thanks Henry. Will look that up.
	👻 10:41am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @DjLorraine Yip Yip Yip! How did the crown prep go?
	10:41am Roberto: Henry Blake?
	10:42am P-90: Look at you guys with your encyclopedic command of MAS*H. Very impressive.
	10:42am johnk77: sweetheart of the rodeo my gateway drug to country rock @pj above correct about byrds influence on petty band petty and campbell toured with lots of rickenbackers and vox backline
	👻 10:42am yerfriendpaul: Roberto - fantastic! Love the whole cast
	10:43am TDK60: Golly Joe-- missin' a Byrds set is not a good way to start my week.
	👻 10:43am DjLorraine: Hughie Considine ty Threemoons great ty

	10:45am Miss G: Oh my. I'm very curious to hear what Joe hates!
	10:45am Joe M: Muskrat love.. muskrat love… please muskrat
	👻 10:45am Oxidized: stoked for the hate!
	10:45am Strandlund: This might be fun...
	👻 10:45am yerfriendpaul: This is science! I’m on board with this, Joe! Let the torture commence!
	10:45am Dean: If I were a DJ I would hope routinely to play songs and artists I don't like. I think it's a great idea.
	10:45am BLCKDGRD: O! You must have mixed up *Blue Bayou" and played it in the wrong set!
	10:45am Krys O.: HA!
	10:45am JeremyB: LOL

	10:46am Handy Haversack: Ha, I get to use this twice in a day!!! frinkiac.com...
	10:46am BillyLundun: Heck yes! I broke my neibours shed window to this song!!
	10:46am Erin in TO: I'm not going to say this is my fave song, but it's not nearly as bad as I was prepping for
	10:46am Dominick: ARRRRRRRRGH!!!!
	10:46am mndave: Fingers crossed for comical inner-groove warble!
	10:46am P-90: I believe the degree of influence the Byrds had ion other musicians and bands in a certain period is greatly underestimated. Partly because: you can’t necessarily “hear” that influence specifically in their music.
	10:46am chris_in_space: Oh no you didn't, @joe
	10:46am Smacky: Wow perfect first choice
	👻 10:46am SeaCreature: We bilked this city! Can billy Joel be far behind
	👻 10:46am yerfriendpaul: What happens if we grow to like the songs? Shiver
	10:46am Hawkeye: Nice start!
	10:46am People Like Us: I bet Matt Warwick would play this
	10:46am Dean: Kinda charming that the label remains Grunt on this one.
	10:46am ledzeppelinsucks: I remedied this song on Saturday by going to the El Rio and seeing Kicker, Pins of Light, The Grannies, Fleshies and Fracas.

	10:46am Susan See: Well, you were right. Volume went down after the fourth note.
	10:47am paddy in matawan: oh boy Stern had an amazing parody of this. You are just going to have to search it for yourself though.
	10:47am JetBoy now of Astoria: Wow I have hated this song my whole. Corporate rockers signing about how lame corporate rock is. Got that right!
	👻 10:47am Brian in UK: Dean, just thinking the same.
	10:47am People Like Us: herro Kelly

	👻 10:48am yerfriendpaul: All those years of expanding my musical horizons, down the tubes
	10:48am cowboy Al: OMG 🤮
	10:48am Dean: Great minds, Brian in UK, think alike, and with our heads in the toilet. It occurs to me that this song is about the 1906 earthquake.
	10:48am Dr. Jones: Hahaha this song always in my head
	10:48am Handy Haversack: Careful, nathan. That's a load-bearing solo.
	10:48am eme: i can't believe that I've heard this twice on wfmu today, there was a clip of it on Wake

	10:48am timinoak: Hey I like this.
	10:48am P-90: (OK, so far I’m not “turning off the radio” for this set, I’m just “turning the volume way down on this set”. So far.)
	10:48am Hawkeye: Is Grace Slick on this track?
	10:49am dude: Rockin
	10:49am P-90: Yes she is
	10:49am Jack: Ooooooooh what else you got?
	👻 10:49am Hughie Considine: I wonder if we'll hear any controversial choices in this set. I mean, almost everybody hates this one.
	10:49am mark in helsinki: good lord this song is awful!
	10:49am Handy Haversack: This kick-ass city!
	👻 10:49am SeaCreature: Time to exercise listener discretion.
	10:49am Son Of Pantz: Grace and her giant 80's jacket are all over it.
	10:49am timinoak: I have sung this to sf tourists from my bike!
	10:50am P-90: From the Craig Chaquico on lead guitar period I believe
	10:50am Creature Boy: Tuned in @ "strap in folks" was there a theme ? Requesting orientation
	10:50am wind: cowboy AI fee better!!! Btw. …is that A.I. artificial intelligence or Al like shirt for Albert?
	10:50am Miss G: I think Joe is setting a honey trap for people scanning channels. Just wait til after 20 minutes!
	10:50am zydeco Phil: I could swear that the local NYC stations had their own version of the middle section - where they shouted out themselves
	👻 10:50am Brian in UK: @ DjLorraine Did you catch this on the Drummer Stream? wfmu.org...
	10:50am Dean: Exactly, Hughie Considine. If Gaylord Fields were programming this set he might have included Bowie, for example.
	10:50am Handy Haversack: frinkiac.com...
	10:50am Strandlund: Okay...I gotta go get my bucket..
	10:50am wind: ♥️♥️♥️

	10:53am P-90: Sounds like the PA in the changing rooms at Old Navy
	👻 10:53am MasterofPuberty: I hate this. Good job. Donating again.
	10:53am wind: anything that is considered “bad” or somehow “not up to par with what is considered “good” is a perfect opportunity for parody, don’t you agree?

	10:54am mark in helsinki: i'll bet On the Wings of Love bought the writer(s) swimming pools, but I also bet that we could fill those pools with barf after listening.
	10:54am prof.fuzz: @wind: i was singing along to "on the wings of drugs" as you made your parody comment. does that count?
	10:54am Steve from Dunwoody: For this you want money?!
	10:54am People Like Us: these are all fine, it's wfmu after all :)
	10:55am listener james from westwood: Jesus, I totally called this next song. "What's next, 'Love Lifts Us Up'?" I mused to my plants. Anyone want me to pick some lottery #s?
	10:55am JetBoy now of Astoria: Omg
	10:55am paddy in matawan: sometimes the worst things are the funnest bringing laughter and conversation
	10:55am mndave: This is being punished by WARM 103.3 in central PA in 1989, sitting in a jump seat in the back of a Chevy Caprice wagon

	10:55am JeremyB: Are these singles you own?
	10:55am Erin in TO: This is getting painful, but I can't tune out because it's also still fun some how. Am I masochist?
	10:56am Michael Perazzetti: ... but is it absolutely necessary to make everyone suffer along with you, when you could easily accomplish something incredibly productive by blasting this for your annoying neighbor instead?
	10:56am Kelly Jones: I adore this cheesy love song... deal with it :D
	👻 10:56am yerfriendpaul: This was my Junior Prom theme song. Senior apron was Bryan Adam’s Heaven

	10:57am Dr. Jones: Everyone do the wave
	10:57am Miss G: What's that "Most Wanted Song?" I love that parody of this. Handy would know. The guy wrote the math/music book.

	10:57am Cowboy Al: 0-3 Joe
	10:57am Kelly Jones: Bette Davis Eyes Joe, Bette Davis Eyes!
	10:57am Dean: My dentist plays pretty decent stuff, actually. But the real pleasure is the ultrasonic cleaner and the suction, especially when the cleaner hits a spot that sends a sonic laser-beam at 20kHz straight up my jaw. Could listen to that all day.
	10:58am Creature Boy: Turbulent indeed ...somebody called "officer" Buffy St Marie got a Grammy or an Oscar or some MuthErfucKin thing for this & your Dad Rockin Dad explained how Cocker used to b cool
	👻 10:58am Ken From Hyde Park: Now that I think of it, Elton John's "Blue Eyes" was conspicuously missing from the first set.
	10:58am Joe McG: Yes, these are all from the early '80s. Someone gave me a pile of them and I couldn't resist sharing them with you.
	👻 10:58am Webhamster Henry: @Miss G that was Dave Soldier, and yes, his "Most Unwanted Music" gets lots more WFMU play thtn his "Most Wanted Music"

	10:58am Mick: @P-90 she definitely is. Her love of super cheesy music is oddly endearing
	10:58am Dean: I await Yes, "Don't Kill the Whales."
	👻 10:58am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: OK I still say that "Separate Lives" will happen, but in the vein of "hate-listen"--Dancing in the Streets Bowie/Jagger
	10:59am timurf: dear gawd i am at my '86 prom

	11:00am Handy Haversack: "Most Unwanted Song" is one of my favorite songs, WHH!

	11:00am People Like Us: Matt Warwick, I was saying up the page that you'd play all of this!
	👻 11:00am Hughie Considine: My dentist plays cover versions of extremely popular songs, like "Brown Eyed Girl" done by a slightly raspy voiced dude and a guitar.

	11:00am Hawkeye: there is no love in this song
	11:00am People Like Us: well I would too, but I'd probably put something over the top of it
	11:00am JetBoy now of Astoria: I would be remiss if I didn’t say we have a serious vibe going here

	11:01am Kelly Jones: @Stanley... I'll have one, too!
	11:01am People Like Us: I think Joe should just do THIS now FOREVER
	👻 11:01am MasterofPuberty: Did you know Peabo Bryson & Roberta Flack recorded this song while emptying out their CFC aerosol cans into the night sky so they could recylcle them? Recycling being all the rage in 1983.

	11:02am People Like Us: oh but this is great
	11:02am Stevel: How much drama can be stuffed into a pop song? The answer might surprise you!
	11:02am Roberto: It's probably no coincidence all Joe's choices so far are from the '80s.
	11:02am Dean: It's hard not to like Dolly, just as it was almost hard not to like Joe Cocker.
	11:02am Matt Warwick: Oh BABY
	11:02am bobsmart567: Yay Barry Gibb!
	11:02am listener james from westwood: Islands! Massive crossover hit. Propelled the establishment of TWO country FM stations in the Tri-State Area in the Carter–early Reagan era.
	11:02am The Oscar: This set just feels like "CVS Bangers" without the gunshots and airhorns.
	11:02am Dr No: Kenny just checked in to see what condition his execrable cheese was in.
	11:02am maria collins: someone kidnapped Jonesey's records.

Not responsible for damage caused by playing these songs. Great for ejecting unwanted house guests - crank this and even cockroaches leave the premises. This is making me sub in some songs I missed.
	11:03am C in Thailand: Islands in the Stream isn't good but it's the best in this 80's set by a large margin.
	11:04am maria collins: play "then came you" by the spinners/dionne warwick.

	👻 11:04am Ken From Hyde Park: A song dedicated to kidney stones, as I understand it.
	11:04am ledzeppelinsucks: Dolly Parton is a freaking fraud. I saw her lousy show at Hardly Strictly about 2012. She was lip syncing and the sound failed, her track went out and then the music faded out. The band kept their charade by miming their instruments. The vocal track came back on and then the band tracks came back. Total rip off. She is a lie.
	11:04am Creature Boy: Double daring Joe to do an ENTIRE show like this. Hey I think my friend Joey plays on this Kenny Dolly song. I actually had ro explain to him about th whole Ghetto Superstar thing

	11:06am Goyim in the AM: @ledzepplinsucks: I have come to accept mime artists with and without talent as something most people can't notice and don't care about. Not a battle worth fighting. generally.

	👻 11:08am James in ATL: @Joe McG - Thank you for small miracles. I didn't want to have to start a fire.
	11:08am ledzeppelinsucks: This type of trash was produced and pushed to fill and counter the 'devil worship' and bands that PMRC opposed. They approved this crap.

	11:08am JetBoy now of Astoria: These songs made up the majority of what my high school fm radio played, just add some Toto and 38 Special et Al and we are there. It was a radio desert, only terrible music could survive the fraught I guess. These tunes are the cockroach of music.

	👻 11:12am yerfriendpaul: I’m singing this to my dog right now. What’s happening to me?!!
	11:12am Matt Warwick: I wish was alive from 1980-1085 :(
	11:12am JetBoy now of Astoria: This song was very controversial at the time as we were all trying to save energy back then and Neil was a one man energy wasting disaster - the president had to call him to ask him to cool it with this song
	👻 11:12am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @-жеи: you realize that this means that you have to give us an antidote show Wednesday. Maybe all Medieval covers of metal music or vice-versa.

	11:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nothing like cheap keyboard instruments to make an entire era sound like an electronics store lobby.
	11:13am pot8o: i'm just enjoying the reactions
	11:13am eme: this set is for perverts
	11:13am eva: good morning! at this point I believe my studio mates are worried.

	11:14am pot8o: it'd be funnier if they were off center though

	11:15am Joe M: Obviously, you’re NOT a sailor!
	11:15am Devin B.: I love this set. It's like you set my clock radio to wake me up in 1986.

	11:17am StringOFperils: This set needs to be kept in a government lab
	11:17am MC Evil Monkey (Chris S): UB40 had a better version until he bested them with that smoking live version

	11:17am Dr No: Looks like I chose the wrong day to give up taking amphetamines.
	11:17am Rick A: Hi Joe and All, Unfortunately, I just have a few minutes between meetings to listen. I notice that three of your 80s tracks are film related. The 80s were when the cinematic pop song really took off with soundtracks selling into the millions.
	11:18am Dean: What counts, Stevel, is the pledge gauge.
	11:18am P-90: Never thought I’d ever actually have to beg for mercy from Joe McGasko of all people

	11:18am JetBoy now of Astoria: I definitely pick the wrong day to stop sniffing glue
	11:18am -жеи: That atrocity by Christopher Cross won the Oscar in 1981 for best orginal song. Which led the studio to dive right into "Arthur Two," which was written by Andy Breckman
	👻 11:18am yerfriendpaul: Ha ha!
	11:18am maria collins: @ paddy in matawan: I'm sure it was featured in Weird N.J. at some point.

	11:19am Handy Haversack: Why do I have "She's Like the Wind" stuck in my head now?
	11:19am stavros: That was like those soft rock compilation commercials they used to air saturday afternoons in the 90s
	11:19am JetBoy now of Astoria: I just watched Arthur 2. It’s like 2 different movies - starts out sorta funny, flips into stupid sit-com with a happy Hollywood ending.
	11:20am Creature Boy: Does anyone remember Crisco & Ebert reviewing Arthur 2 On The Rocks?
	11:20am Krys O.: I survived Joe McGasko's treacly singles set!

	11:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Interesting. More just a huge '?' over my head than any cultural PTSD. The 70s more for that here...
	11:21am Miss G: So, the only song that made the bile rise up, was "We Built This City," with "Footloose" going on mute. An interesting experiment! Thank you Joe! I'm sure the pledges are rolling in!
	11:21am rw: Bermuda, bahama...
	11:22am Dean: None of these tracks is likely to appear even on World's Worst Records. What does that mean?
	11:22am JetBoy now of Astoria: @webhamster - that’s why I watched it!
	11:22am Dr No: Jeffrey Osbourne's backing band on 'On the Wings of Love' was actually Killing Joke.
	11:22am βrian: Hah, I just not tuned in. I gather I've been spared some pain?

	👻 11:24am yerfriendpaul: Joe, you’re giving a brains a good stretching today

	11:24am rw: Joe, you're insane.
	👻 11:24am Brian in UK: Guilt by association?
	11:24am Dr No: Dean, we need to exert some public pressure and make that collaboration happen!
	11:24am Dean: Laura Nyro, "Stoned Cold Picnic"
	11:25am PJ: Bert Convy was a singer too
	11:25am Creature Boy: We can take it joe but I must admit I'm not reaching for checkbook . So.....as sociological experiments go....
	11:25am Goyim in the AM: Chuck Woolery is a wad.
	👻 11:25am yerfriendpaul: Stoned and Starving is next (hopefully)

	11:26am Dean: Er, "Stoned Soul Picnic"
	11:26am maria collins: getting ready for "come to the sunshine" @ 6:00.

	11:26am Matt: It was delightful to hear all those excrutiating songs -- felt like the credits were rolling after seeing a mainstream movie in the 80s.
	11:26am TexasTrey: Fire
	11:26am Joe B: chi-lites next?
	11:26am JetBoy now of Astoria: @webhamster h: great idea! Andy could host and give the back story about how the Hollywood hacks wrecked his vision - watching Arthur 2 I thought there is a story being this movie… the making of it that is
	11:26am Dean: There are no songs whose titles begin with "Love..."!
	11:27am Joe B: ah great one!
	11:27am Krys O.: Palate cleansing!
	11:27am Jason from Houston: Ohhhhhh my heart. Sooooooo good.
	11:27am Rick A: Damn! I have to go now. I anticipate hearing this show's archive, given my deep appreciation for The Byrds.
	11:27am Joe B: love removal machine next?
	11:27am The Oscar: Are you going to close the circle by ending with "Alone Again Naturally?"
	11:27am maria collins: Yes! Chi-Lites !!! :D

	11:27am Creature Boy: Your analyst HASNT stopped scribbling on his note pad , Joe
	👻 11:27am Brian in UK: Dean, good try, too sophisticated though.
	11:28am C in Thailand: Both the artist name and song title of The Avant Garde song reminds me of that Simpsons episode in which Bart and friends go see Naked Lunch.
	11:28am Dr No: Is Sun Ra's 'Love in Outer Space' next then?
	11:28am Robm: @Miss G it had the word stoned:)
	11:29am PJ: Wikipedia tells me that this was written and recorded as "Stone Love" but was mislabeled leading to some drug controversy
	11:29am StringOFperils: Love To Love You Baby? Love TKO?
	11:29am Dean: Oh, right, Dr No. There is one song whose title begins with "Love..."
	11:29am Miss G: Thank you Robm! ;-)
	11:30am Dean: (Now, see, I would have relegated just about any Talking Heads song to the "hate" set. But this is the one TH song I enjoy.)
	11:30am JeremyB: Is firestarter from the Prodigy up next! Called it!
	11:30am paddy in matawan: Ween - Love. First lyric "Love. It's such an easy game to play."
	11:30am maria collins: Is the next song about fire? I see a pattern.
	11:30am Handy Haversack: I think it will be "Fire, We Didn't Start the."
	11:31am Robm: @Miss G (G)
	11:31am Dean: If he spins Ohio Players' "Fire," Joe will be stuck in an endless loop.
	👻 11:31am yerfriendpaul: Fire and Rain

	11:31am StuartR: Fire? A Hendrix tune?
	11:31am Creature Boy: "Stone Love" was phrase uttered in association with a street gang called the PR Stones in the 1970s Chicago neighborhood of Lakeview. True story

	👻 11:33am yerfriendpaul: Fly me to the moon
	11:33am StringOFperils: Phew. I'm like no no no not Fire on the Mountain...

	👻 11:33am chresti: Hi Miss G!
	👻 11:33am Ken From Hyde Park: "Fly Robin Fly" ... hmm, no. That may not work right.
	11:34am Brendan: is this the b side of scratchy?
	11:34am Dr No: Fly like an Eagle? The time is surely right for the Stevemilliband.
	11:34am maria collins: @ Ken From Hyde Park: me 2. I'm gonna sit this one out.
	11:34am Joe McG: @Brendan: It is! And my copy sure is scratchy.
	11:35am Creature Boy: I think SO @ brendan
	11:35am The Oscar: You know, I don't think I've heard any Chilliwack apart from the one song Rick Moranis covered on SCTV.
	11:35am Dean: This game set complements well my efforts to write a sestina. Not exactly the same rules, but similar.
	11:35am Brendan: 👍
	11:36am Blix: Could you get a Seger tune for every one of these thus far? Level II of The Chain Game.
	11:36am Dean: James Brown, "Night Train."

	11:37am The Oscar: Clearly, the next song will be "Night of the Living Dead" by the Misfits ;)
	👻 11:37am yerfriendpaul: Blix - my mind went to Night Moves too.
	11:37am Dr No: Trogg's 'Night of the Long Grass'. For Pete's sake.

	👻 11:37am chresti: Here Comes the Night
	👻 11:37am Ken From Hyde Park: Night Flight to Venus
	11:38am bradford: night moves!
	11:38am StringOFperils: Now I need to listen to The Outlaws...bangs head...
	11:38am Dean: Chilliwack do a nice version of Sutherland Bros.' "Arms of Mary."
	11:38am The Oscar: "Day-O (The Banana Song)" would be a power move here.
	👻 11:39am chresti: Daydream Believer
	👻 11:39am yerfriendpaul: Day in the Life?
	11:39am Handy Haversack: "Day of the Vampire"!
	11:39am maria collins: Day after Day. Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

	👻 11:41am yerfriendpaul: Susan Dey? Sorry
	11:41am Joe McG: I cheated slightly on this one since "Daybreak" should be 2 words, but hey, it's my game.
	11:41am βrian: So "daybreak" or "break?"
	👻 11:41am Webhamster Henry: What, not Barry Manilow's Daybreak?
	11:42am Stanley: You could virtually feel the spandex on that
	11:42am TDK60: Break on Through, to the Other Side of Free Form?
	11:42am StringOFperils: Wunderbar!
	11:43am Handy Haversack: "Break My Soul." Bet on it.
	11:43am JetBoy now of Astoria: Glad you went for this Nilsson!

	11:47am Dean: ...followed by "Games People Play."
	11:47am Joe McG: Ken and Paul, you got me!
	11:47am KWilde: Was going to guess Mind Your Own Business by Hank but that probably wasn't released as a 45
	👻 11:47am yerfriendpaul: Woo hoo!! Followed by Games People Play?
	11:48am Dr No: Perhaps Games Without Front Ears by Peter Gabriel?
	11:48am Stevel: Games without Frontiers
	11:48am Joe McG: I should have started this earlier since I have a lot of chain to go. I think I'll continue the chain on next week's show.
	👻 11:48am Brian in UK: Joe, nice work. Certainly got our attention.
	11:48am Creature Boy: And a CoVer vErsioN of Games People Play is surely cued
	11:49am Handy Haversack: Joe, you must never break the chain. Never break the chain.
	👻 11:50am Brian in UK: A chain is only as strong as the weakest link. Deep.
	11:50am TDK60: Bassist Gordon Edwards deserves mention on this 'Mind Games' album. Incredible playing.
	11:51am Joe McG: Y'all called it!
	11:51am Creature Boy: I just spent 380$ at Amoeba Records Hollywood last night and then I coughed up for mcgasko today . I need to grow up
	11:52am Joe M: Had a Scott Muni flashback just there
