	9:18am Menlo Park: These songs were from the Great Depression and Dust Bowl era but are very uplifting. Inspiration for us all in new challenging times!
	9:19am Rich from Wading River: This song is filthy!
	♥ 9:22am Joe McG: @Rich: You ain't kiddin'!
	♥ 9:22am Phillippe: I wore my cowboy boots this past weekend for the first time in years. Coincidence? I think not...
	9:22am Mike W.: This compliment might land only with people who’ve lived in the Twin Cities (esp in the ‘90s): Joe, you could spin at any show at First Avenue. Just like Roy Freedom.
	♥ 9:22am Joe McG: @Coco: Sometimes! @jabsonik: Hi, Finland!
	9:24am Toothgrinder Tom: @Menlo Park it’s the sound of tightening your belt!
	🎸 ♥ 9:25am Son Of Pantz: "Hey Boss. How about some more beans?"
	9:25am dano59: Of course Tom Hanks’ “Cowboy Song” is the pinnacle of the form for me…
	🎸 ♥ 9:26am Handy Haversack: Mike W.: First Avenue comes up a lot around our place. K8 seems to have lived there for a set of years.
	♥ 9:27am listener james from westwood: Pantz: "I think you boys've had enough already!"
	🎸 ♥ 9:28am bk845: Let's not forget "Blue Shadow" by the Three Amigos!
	9:29am paul: Fun fact: Vaughn Monroe's version of "Let It Snow" is the version that concludes Die Hard.
	🎸 ♥ 9:29am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Fantastic opening set, Joe. Can't wait to archive.org some of these I'd not heard before.

	9:30am Toothgrinder Tom: Now I have a hankering to watch Blazing Saddles.
	🎸 ♥ 9:30am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Love Ned Sublette's version of that tune too. And Burl Ives. And Johnny. Such a massively great song.

	♥ 9:30am listener james from westwood: @Tom: You'd do it for Randolph Scott!
	🎸 ♥ 9:30am Webhamster Henry: I f you were really a WFMU DJ, "Ich will ein Cowboy als Mann" would be in here somewhere.
	🎸 ♥ 9:30am yerfriendpaul: I can’t remember who was singing Ghost Riders but the first time I heard it on the radio, I got spooked by it
	9:31am Hub: Great stuff Joe. I realize some listeners might consider old-timey western tunes an acquired taste, but I like it! Hope you might consider following this Vaughn Ghost Riders tune with his version of Cool Water. Many thanks.
	9:31am paul: yerfriendpaul, It was probably Frankie Laine
	9:31am Mike W.: Handy, i DJed there 1991-95 Also woke up/passed out upside-down in one of their giant garbage bins (clean) on a birthday (eh, in my 20s)
	🎸 ♥ 9:31am Webhamster Henry: Uncle Michael played covers of Ghost Riders/Ghost Herd every week fro the better part of a year .
	🎸 ♥ 9:32am Listener Bryan (the Professor): I grew up in a little town in AZ and I think I first heard it live, from an old neighbor with lots of cow skulls decorating his living room. Spooked me too. But it's such an amazing tune.
	🎸 ♥ 9:32am tadpoles: Love the music....but hate the fact that the real cowboys almost exterminated the bison quite apart from our Native Americans. Sorry to be a grouch.
	🎸 ♥ 9:33am Handy Haversack: I'm sure you two were in the place at the same time, then, Mike W. K8 graduated Mpls. HS in '92 and a local college in '96. Lots of First Avenueing.
	♥ 9:33am Asheville Jon: should follow this up with Dead Kennedys version of Rawhide
	9:34am wind: Joe there’s a Hungarian version of this somewhere 🙂 I remember it from when I was growing up there.
	🎸 ♥ 9:34am Webhamster Henry: Joe is being really authentic here. I wouldn't be able to resist the impulse for such fare as "Borscht Riders in the sky" and "On the Streets of Miami".
	9:36am morphe': Long time since I heard a set of Western Americana .... enjoying so ...
	9:36am rx scabin: Good morning, Joe and Everyone.
	♥ 9:37am listener james from westwood: Mighty fine start to a work week that's gonna be as long as the prairie is broad!
	🎸 ♥ 9:37am yerfriendpaul: That hit the spot, Joe - thank you!
	9:38am Wilson of Quinn: Wow... your real feat is getting through your entire "mythology of the American West" blue yodel get along lil dogie set without playing Jimmy Rodgers.
	🎸 ♥ 9:38am Son Of Pantz: Joe, I wish to offer a laurel and hearty hand shake for that set.
	🎸 ♥ 9:39am The Oscar: I would 100% listen to a regular show called Rodeo Roundup. Great set!
	🎸 ♥ 9:39am listener 126464: Hah ya doin'?
	♥ 9:40am Rich in Bristol: Ooh, good – I haven't missed Single File yet.
	🎸 ♥ 9:40am steveo: @kenzo: here is a good example of why sets should be clickystarrable
	9:43am morphe': Yes the gender lines made me think Rowdy Wright I'm a Jolly Cowboy was a precusor to Brokeback Mountain ..
	♥ 9:44am listener james from westwood: Hard to imagine where that label might've had a base in Ho-Ho-Kus, seeing as it's all rich folks' houses these days! But I know there was a warehouse there used by my first employer.
	9:44am Mike W.: Handy, if K8 listened to Rev105, she might’ve heard me on Tuesday nights
	9:44am paul: Ken Burns' documentary on Country Music is a must-see.
	🎸 ♥ 9:45am The Oscar: American westerns have always been a blind spot for me, but I've been dipping my toe into John Ford lately-- good stuff.
	9:45am dano59: ‘Bucking Bronco’ is often unattributed / ‘traditional’ but at least one source credits the lyrics to Belle Starr. … history! (I grew up watching Westerns, and have Rio Bravo queued up this week)
	🎸 ♥ 9:47am Handy Haversack: I'll ask, Mike W.!
	🎸 ♥ 9:47am Son Of Pantz: @dano59 Rio Bravo is a classic. I can watch Treasure of Sierra Madre another hundred times too.
	♥ 9:51am Joe McG: Except for "High Noon" and "Liberty Valence," it took me a while to get into other westerns, but now I like a lot of 'em.
	9:53am morphe': While not a "Western" von Stronheim's silent "Greed" is set in the Western Desert and worth a look..
	9:56am morphe': ps. The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (Cohen Bros) is a hoot also well worth watching
	🎸 ♥ 9:56am tadpoles: Sergio Leone's "Once Upon a Time in the West" ....!!
	🎸 ♥ 9:59am Ken From Hyde Park: I like the Trinity movies. Terence Hill & Bud Spencer forever!
	♥ 10:00am Rich in Bristol: My stepdad used to watch Westerns on Sunday afternoons and they always looked so boring to me, all slow and monochrome and ham-acted and that. Then I had a huge Westerns binge in 2012–13 and found out that I absolutely love them! Once you settle into the style, there is so much nuance in that slow pace that is just wonderful. And also yes to tadpole's rec. of "Once Upon A Time In The West". What a film. That soundtrack gets me right in the guts!
	10:01am rx scabin: Shane and Red River.
	10:02am Lewis: Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven is quite something... not in the traditional form...
	🎸 ♥ 10:02am JeremyB: I heard this somewhere else recently?
	10:03am Huge Rat: Now this is my kinda song!!!
	♥ 10:03am Barno in Akron: Sleaford Mods, Yay!
	🎸 ♥ 10:03am luka: the combo i never knew i needed.

	10:03am Hi from Holland: Aloha! Sleaford Mods & Orbital = good combo, Nice banger.
	🎸 ♥ 10:04am JeremyB: Oh I think mona played this...
	10:04am Huge Rat: I love bein' a dirty rat eh wot eh wot
	🎸 ♥ 10:04am JeremyB: Very cool to hear it here, Joe!
	🎸 ♥ 10:05am Yetz: this has way too much energy for right now.... i'll be back later!
	10:05am prudy: great protest song Joe...thanks for sharing...
	10:05am rx scabin: LKJ
	10:06am prudy: followed by...another gem...
	♥ 10:06am Deano de los Muertos: No argument here
	🎸 ♥ 10:07am PaulRobeson1922: 1980- same year the British Virgin islands outlawed Dreadlocks

	🎸 ♥ 10:14am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @Son of Pantz I have my primordial slime hoodie to prove it!
	🎸 ♥ 10:14am bk845: Why does this guy sound like Gus Bodenheim?
	♥ 10:15am Joe McG: @bk845: Ha ha, he does! I'll have to pass this track to Irwin.

	♥ 10:21am Rich in Bristol: I almost never have a tenner to spend in a day. Should I be concerned?
	♥ 10:21am radioronan: You may be first on that track. Darren played Felt..
	🎸 ♥ 10:22am McGroovey: Stem nation? How words sound when you sing then is important
	🎸 ♥ 10:23am Handy Haversack: I feel like some early New Model Army would fit in quite well in this set. Sounding great, Joe!
	10:25am sonnyspop: @Threemoons Thanks — I’m the right age to have seen this many times. ; > )

	♥ 10:42am chresti: I liked the little shamisen sounding intro @Hot Chocolate Band
	🎸 ♥ 10:43am The Oscar: Recording a song about "joining the Charlie people" in the early '70s feels... bold.

	10:47am Dean: Even Bob Seger can't make it not sound like Tom Waits.
	🎸 ♥ 10:50am Krys O.: HA! I used to play this single a lot back in the 80s. My copy had an interesting skip too.
	10:51am Andy: Now THIS is a good cover. Even though it's not a cover.
	🎸 ♥ 10:52am steveo: before when I said I hated 50s music that was when I hadn't yet heard this song
	🎸 ♥ 10:52am Krys O.: It's a Bob Crewe composition.
	♥ 10:53am Yes: hello everyone
	10:53am Andy: @krys. Wait, is it a cover after all then?
	10:54am John in Phoenixville: Sounded like the Ron Hicklin singers on that Nancy Adams track.
	🎸 ♥ 10:54am Krys O.: The A-side La Dee Dah was a hit. No, Andy. Bob Crewe cranked out songs for many artists. It's not a cover.

	♥ 11:10am olivia: I took some tea tooo!! Its very good:) thank u
	11:11am Dean: A couple years later a pop band called Charlie released the first of a spate of not half-bad LPs. Bed music is a loop from a Kevin Ayers outtake, I believe.

	11:12am Dean: "Hymn" from Bananamour

	🎸 ♥ 11:12am FEMA Representative: Come on, man -- do the test! We work hard on getting those cool tones!
	11:13am Zephyr: The Charlie perfume campaign was pervasive. Also the inspiration for the Zappa tune “Charlie’s Enormous Mouth”….a dark tale of drug abuse. Contains the memorable refrain “Kinda young, kinda dead”.
	11:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good Day FMUvianz ~ ⦿Sun in ♏︎Scorpio, Year of Water 🐂Ox Albert Camus born 7 November 1913 – 4 January 1960 ⦿Sun in ♏︎Scorpio, Year of Water 🐏Sheep ~ Goat ~ Ram Joni Mitchell born: Roberta Joan Anderson, November 7, 1943, Fort Macleod, Alberta, Canada

	🎸 ♥ 11:16am Handy Haversack: And the rate of production is very high, McGroove!

	11:33am judy from croton: Star's really gone out. Too sad.
	🎸 ♥ 11:34am Handy Haversack: This definitely hit K8 hard, Mike W. (if you're still on the board). Minnesotan bonds.
	♥ 11:35am Joe McG: I'll never forget seeing Low in the '90s and how quiet the room was. Even more than a classical concert. Not a cough, not a sneeze, not a drink clank.
	11:35am JetBoy of Astoria: Good day Joe and all. This has long been a favorite Low song of mine. Best wishes to Low and all Low fans. I’m very sad.
	🎸 ♥ 11:36am Jason from Houston: Sat on a dirty bar floor in 1997 and saw them. The best. Very quiet.

	🎸 ♥ 11:37am Ken From Hyde Park: Mimi obit - www.rollingstone.com...
	11:41am JetBoy of Astoria: I just left Minnesota yesterday but didn’t hear the news till today. Saturday I was talking with friends about Low and hoping Mimi was getting better. It’s the way of the world, but it sucks.
	🎸 ♥ 11:42am Krys O.: BTW, Joe: I saw Ned Sparks in Imitation of Life over the weekend. He had such a prominent role in that film.
	♥ 11:43am Joe McG: @Krys: He did! He's great in that, but then, he's great in everything. :)
	11:45am prudy: this sounds like a great compilation...
	🎸 ♥ 11:46am Krys O.: I agree. Caricatures of him would even pop up in Merrie Melodies cartoons.
	♥ 11:46am spacecadet: lovin' the Philly set
	11:48am Joe M: Now that’s a segue!

	♥ 9:22am Phillippe: I wore my cowboy boots this past weekend for the first time in years. Coincidence? I think not...
	9:22am Mike W.: This compliment might land only with people who’ve lived in the Twin Cities (esp in the ‘90s): Joe, you could spin at any show at First Avenue. Just like Roy Freedom.
	♥ 9:22am Joe McG: @Coco: Sometimes! @jabsonik: Hi, Finland!
	9:24am Toothgrinder Tom: @Menlo Park it’s the sound of tightening your belt!

	🎸 ♥ 9:30am Webhamster Henry: I f you were really a WFMU DJ, "Ich will ein Cowboy als Mann" would be in here somewhere.
	🎸 ♥ 9:30am yerfriendpaul: I can’t remember who was singing Ghost Riders but the first time I heard it on the radio, I got spooked by it
	9:31am Hub: Great stuff Joe. I realize some listeners might consider old-timey western tunes an acquired taste, but I like it! Hope you might consider following this Vaughn Ghost Riders tune with his version of Cool Water. Many thanks.
	9:31am paul: yerfriendpaul, It was probably Frankie Laine
	9:31am Mike W.: Handy, i DJed there 1991-95 Also woke up/passed out upside-down in one of their giant garbage bins (clean) on a birthday (eh, in my 20s)
	🎸 ♥ 9:31am Webhamster Henry: Uncle Michael played covers of Ghost Riders/Ghost Herd every week fro the better part of a year .
	🎸 ♥ 9:32am Listener Bryan (the Professor): I grew up in a little town in AZ and I think I first heard it live, from an old neighbor with lots of cow skulls decorating his living room. Spooked me too. But it's such an amazing tune.
	🎸 ♥ 9:32am tadpoles: Love the music....but hate the fact that the real cowboys almost exterminated the bison quite apart from our Native Americans. Sorry to be a grouch.
	🎸 ♥ 9:33am Handy Haversack: I'm sure you two were in the place at the same time, then, Mike W. K8 graduated Mpls. HS in '92 and a local college in '96. Lots of First Avenueing.
	♥ 9:33am Asheville Jon: should follow this up with Dead Kennedys version of Rawhide
	9:34am wind: Joe there’s a Hungarian version of this somewhere 🙂 I remember it from when I was growing up there.
	🎸 ♥ 9:34am Webhamster Henry: Joe is being really authentic here. I wouldn't be able to resist the impulse for such fare as "Borscht Riders in the sky" and "On the Streets of Miami".
	9:36am morphe': Long time since I heard a set of Western Americana .... enjoying so ...
	9:36am rx scabin: Good morning, Joe and Everyone.
	♥ 9:37am listener james from westwood: Mighty fine start to a work week that's gonna be as long as the prairie is broad!
	🎸 ♥ 9:37am yerfriendpaul: That hit the spot, Joe - thank you!
	9:38am Wilson of Quinn: Wow... your real feat is getting through your entire "mythology of the American West" blue yodel get along lil dogie set without playing Jimmy Rodgers.
	🎸 ♥ 9:38am Son Of Pantz: Joe, I wish to offer a laurel and hearty hand shake for that set.
	🎸 ♥ 9:39am The Oscar: I would 100% listen to a regular show called Rodeo Roundup. Great set!

	♥ 9:40am Rich in Bristol: Ooh, good – I haven't missed Single File yet.
	🎸 ♥ 9:40am steveo: @kenzo: here is a good example of why sets should be clickystarrable
	9:43am morphe': Yes the gender lines made me think Rowdy Wright I'm a Jolly Cowboy was a precusor to Brokeback Mountain ..
	♥ 9:44am listener james from westwood: Hard to imagine where that label might've had a base in Ho-Ho-Kus, seeing as it's all rich folks' houses these days! But I know there was a warehouse there used by my first employer.
	9:44am Mike W.: Handy, if K8 listened to Rev105, she might’ve heard me on Tuesday nights
	9:44am paul: Ken Burns' documentary on Country Music is a must-see.
	🎸 ♥ 9:45am The Oscar: American westerns have always been a blind spot for me, but I've been dipping my toe into John Ford lately-- good stuff.
	9:45am dano59: ‘Bucking Bronco’ is often unattributed / ‘traditional’ but at least one source credits the lyrics to Belle Starr. … history! (I grew up watching Westerns, and have Rio Bravo queued up this week)
	🎸 ♥ 9:47am Handy Haversack: I'll ask, Mike W.!
	🎸 ♥ 9:47am Son Of Pantz: @dano59 Rio Bravo is a classic. I can watch Treasure of Sierra Madre another hundred times too.
	♥ 9:51am Joe McG: Except for "High Noon" and "Liberty Valence," it took me a while to get into other westerns, but now I like a lot of 'em.
	9:53am morphe': While not a "Western" von Stronheim's silent "Greed" is set in the Western Desert and worth a look..
	9:56am morphe': ps. The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (Cohen Bros) is a hoot also well worth watching
	🎸 ♥ 9:56am tadpoles: Sergio Leone's "Once Upon a Time in the West" ....!!
	🎸 ♥ 9:59am Ken From Hyde Park: I like the Trinity movies. Terence Hill & Bud Spencer forever!
	♥ 10:00am Rich in Bristol: My stepdad used to watch Westerns on Sunday afternoons and they always looked so boring to me, all slow and monochrome and ham-acted and that. Then I had a huge Westerns binge in 2012–13 and found out that I absolutely love them! Once you settle into the style, there is so much nuance in that slow pace that is just wonderful. And also yes to tadpole's rec. of "Once Upon A Time In The West". What a film. That soundtrack gets me right in the guts!
	10:01am rx scabin: Shane and Red River.
	10:02am Lewis: Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven is quite something... not in the traditional form...
	🎸 ♥ 10:02am JeremyB: I heard this somewhere else recently?
	10:03am Huge Rat: Now this is my kinda song!!!

	10:03am Hi from Holland: Aloha! Sleaford Mods & Orbital = good combo, Nice banger.
	🎸 ♥ 10:04am JeremyB: Oh I think mona played this...
	10:04am Huge Rat: I love bein' a dirty rat eh wot eh wot
	🎸 ♥ 10:04am JeremyB: Very cool to hear it here, Joe!
	🎸 ♥ 10:05am Yetz: this has way too much energy for right now.... i'll be back later!
	10:05am prudy: great protest song Joe...thanks for sharing...
	10:05am rx scabin: LKJ

	10:14am johnk77: linton performed live in nyc w/dennis bovell & dub band at s.o.b.'s probably last century
	🎸 ♥ 10:14am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @Son of Pantz I have my primordial slime hoodie to prove it!
	🎸 ♥ 10:14am bk845: Why does this guy sound like Gus Bodenheim?
	♥ 10:15am Joe McG: @bk845: Ha ha, he does! I'll have to pass this track to Irwin.
	10:15am rx scabin: Truly a song about buildings. How about one about food?
	♥ 10:15am prof.fuzz: morning y'all

	🎸 ♥ 10:16am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @PaulRobeson1922 did not know about the dreadlock laws...found this...thank you! stjohnsource.com...
	10:16am morphe': JohnK77 - SoB was LKJ's spot in NYC as well as Gil Scott Heron's ... a great small venue .. saw both there a few times ...
	🎸 ♥ 10:17am Webhamster Henry: I saw Once Upon A Time In The West in Austria, where it was called "Spiel Mir Das Lied von Tod" .. 166 minutes long with about 10 minutes of dialog.
	10:17am johnk77: i mixed the sound at those shows

	♥ 10:21am radioronan: You may be first on that track. Darren played Felt..
	🎸 ♥ 10:22am McGroovey: Stem nation? How words sound when you sing then is important
	🎸 ♥ 10:23am Handy Haversack: I feel like some early New Model Army would fit in quite well in this set. Sounding great, Joe!

	10:41am Andy: @weirds. Yep.
	10:41am morphe': Was a great cover !!!!!
	♥ 10:42am chresti: I liked the little shamisen sounding intro @Hot Chocolate Band
	🎸 ♥ 10:43am The Oscar: Recording a song about "joining the Charlie people" in the early '70s feels... bold.
	♥ 10:43am Joe McG: Sending this one out to Charlie.
	10:43am morphe': My acapella version GIVE BEETS A CHANCE is the worst cover .. sang in the kitchen/at the dinner table to children and childish adults ..
	🎸 ♥ 10:43am Handy Haversack: Hello, Angels.
	🎸 ♥ 10:44am chris_in_space: "Charlie's Men" has been buried in my subconsciousness since the 70s until now.

	10:47am Dean: Even Bob Seger can't make it not sound like Tom Waits.
	🎸 ♥ 10:50am Krys O.: HA! I used to play this single a lot back in the 80s. My copy had an interesting skip too.
	10:51am Andy: Now THIS is a good cover. Even though it's not a cover.
	🎸 ♥ 10:52am steveo: before when I said I hated 50s music that was when I hadn't yet heard this song
	🎸 ♥ 10:52am Krys O.: It's a Bob Crewe composition.
	♥ 10:53am Yes: hello everyone
	10:53am Andy: @krys. Wait, is it a cover after all then?
	10:54am John in Phoenixville: Sounded like the Ron Hicklin singers on that Nancy Adams track.
	🎸 ♥ 10:54am Krys O.: The A-side La Dee Dah was a hit. No, Andy. Bob Crewe cranked out songs for many artists. It's not a cover.

	♥ 11:10am olivia: I took some tea tooo!! Its very good:) thank u
	11:11am Dean: A couple years later a pop band called Charlie released the first of a spate of not half-bad LPs. Bed music is a loop from a Kevin Ayers outtake, I believe.

	11:12am Dean: "Hymn" from Bananamour

	🎸 ♥ 11:12am FEMA Representative: Come on, man -- do the test! We work hard on getting those cool tones!
	11:13am Zephyr: The Charlie perfume campaign was pervasive. Also the inspiration for the Zappa tune “Charlie’s Enormous Mouth”….a dark tale of drug abuse. Contains the memorable refrain “Kinda young, kinda dead”.
	11:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good Day FMUvianz ~ ⦿Sun in ♏︎Scorpio, Year of Water 🐂Ox Albert Camus born 7 November 1913 – 4 January 1960 ⦿Sun in ♏︎Scorpio, Year of Water 🐏Sheep ~ Goat ~ Ram Joni Mitchell born: Roberta Joan Anderson, November 7, 1943, Fort Macleod, Alberta, Canada

	🎸 ♥ 11:16am Handy Haversack: And the rate of production is very high, McGroove!

	11:33am judy from croton: Star's really gone out. Too sad.
	🎸 ♥ 11:34am Handy Haversack: This definitely hit K8 hard, Mike W. (if you're still on the board). Minnesotan bonds.
	♥ 11:35am Joe McG: I'll never forget seeing Low in the '90s and how quiet the room was. Even more than a classical concert. Not a cough, not a sneeze, not a drink clank.
	11:35am JetBoy of Astoria: Good day Joe and all. This has long been a favorite Low song of mine. Best wishes to Low and all Low fans. I’m very sad.
	🎸 ♥ 11:36am Jason from Houston: Sat on a dirty bar floor in 1997 and saw them. The best. Very quiet.

	11:41am JetBoy of Astoria: I just left Minnesota yesterday but didn’t hear the news till today. Saturday I was talking with friends about Low and hoping Mimi was getting better. It’s the way of the world, but it sucks.
	🎸 ♥ 11:42am Krys O.: BTW, Joe: I saw Ned Sparks in Imitation of Life over the weekend. He had such a prominent role in that film.
	♥ 11:43am Joe McG: @Krys: He did! He's great in that, but then, he's great in everything. :)
	11:45am prudy: this sounds like a great compilation...
	🎸 ♥ 11:46am Krys O.: I agree. Caricatures of him would even pop up in Merrie Melodies cartoons.
	♥ 11:46am spacecadet: lovin' the Philly set
	11:48am Joe M: Now that’s a segue!
