	1:05pm MHLee: I only have that song.
	1:06pm Krys O.: It appeared on a Stone Temple Pilots album. www.alternativenation.net...
	1:06pm Miss Mei: ↳ MHLee @1:05 Wow! It really does look similar to Mathis! For Mathis lovers, this album is up their aisle!
	1:06pm Krys O.: I recognized it from there.
	1:07pm MHLee: ↳ Krys O. @1:06 That's wild
	1:07pm Miss Mei: I'm so excited to look through Peterson's work!!!
	1:14pm Krys O.: Ooh, that is Steve Dondershine. He did a show on WFMU and was an Upsala College student like me.
	1:15pm MHLee: ↳ Miss Mei @1:07 I love this kind of vanity pressing
	1:16pm Miss Mei: ↳ MHLee @1:15 Me too! Always gold.
	1:16pm MHLee: ↳ Krys O. @1:14 Old colleges that go away kinda inspire a melancholy in me
	1:16pm Krys O.: It was on a cassette of WFMU DJs performances called All My Children that Jim Price put together. Here's a photo of Steve by Jim Price: www.flickr.com...
	1:17pm listener kreightoven: Yesss, miss mei, you are an Angel. My day gets a little brighter when I catch your show.
	1:18pm Miss Mei: ↳ Krys O. @1:16 Wow! Another breakthrough!
	1:19pm Krys O.: I don't think Jim Price ever digitized those All My Children cassettes. There were two volumes. I'm on both of them. They're full of gems.
	1:21pm Krys O.: ↳ MHLee @1:16 There's a Facebook group for Upsala alumni. I've connected with old classmates there.

	1:26pm Mr Fab: Hey hey, Miss Mei! For diggin up and preserving these obscure gems, all I can say is: thank you for your service.
	1:31pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "When You're Dreamin'" by "Unknown" This could be a nice ballad by like Doris Day
	1:33pm Krys O.: ↳ MHLee @1:25 I find family historical excavations like that fascinating. I just connected with a long-lost cousin from an estranged branch of my family. It's a long story, but I used a trial membership on Ancestry to reach her. She had photos of my aunt that resembled ones in our family album.
	1:36pm MHLee: ↳ Krys O. @1:33 I found my grandfather's cousin confirming some roots.
	1:40pm Krys O.: ↳ MHLee @1:36 Excellent!
	1:44pm Shae: Thank you for compiling this !
	1:47pm Otis: Top of the afternoon all!
	1:48pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Song: "It Comes Down" by "Unknown" This sounds magical in a way I cannot explain. Kind of like someone with the lovable spirit of Laurie Anderson.
	1:54pm Shae: yeehaw
	1:55pm MHLee: ↳ Miss Mei @1:04 I'll send you the whole collection I got from him tonight. A few of the songs do not appear on the net at all
	1:57pm Miss Mei: ↳ MHLee @1:55 omg!!!!! thank you!
	1:59pm Shae: this is what i assumed every country song was back when i was a kid
	2:02pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "Love Song To Jesus" by "Unknown" Alan Lomax field recording vibes
	2:04pm Shae: love it when the bitrate is so low that it sounds like speakers underwater
	2:05pm Rich in Washington: amazing show today Miss Mei!
	2:05pm Otis: ↳ Song: "Oh Bud" by "Unknown" My cats like this one.
	2:06pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Shae @2:04 I concur.
	2:07pm Krys O.: ↳ Otis @2:05 Oh, I'll have to play this for Harvey and Pooka then when I get home.
	2:07pm Shae: i'm so confused at this one
	2:07pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Laundromat Love" by "Unknown" I wrote music to this one.
	2:07pm Otis: Was it Mark Mark Mark or Bark Bark Bark or... oh who cares, it was awesome!
	2:09pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Honeymooners Theme" by "Unknown" Quite sinister innit?
	2:09pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "We've Got A World That Swings" by "Unknown" Oh I adore this one ! I need to cover it some day
	2:10pm Shae: ↳ Miss Mei @2:09 I remember you playing it for me once, i love the warble on this one
	2:11pm Miss Mei: ↳ Shae @2:10 It is fun
	2:11pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Otis @2:07 OTIS!
	2:12pm Shae: this tape sounds like its decomposing before our ears
	2:13pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Unknown Chinese Acetate" by "Unknown" I'm sorry for playing this one, everybody.
	2:13pm Shae: nothing wrong with this, it's all interesting
	👻 2:14pm WR: ↳ Song: "Unknown Chinese Acetate" by "Unknown" I like it!
	2:14pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Miss Mei @2:13 It's incredible! The noise just makes it more fascinating.
	2:16pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Nothing Compares 2 U" by "Unknown" I adore this cover and it's another one I need to cover myself. :) It makes me emotional.
	2:17pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Nothing Compares 2 U" by "Unknown" spectacular
	2:21pm MHLee: This one is in the stuff Irwin sent
	2:21pm Shae: is this the same person as live in maid?
	2:21pm Miss Mei: ↳ MHLee @2:21 Yes, and thank you so much for that folder!
	2:22pm MHLee: You're very welcome, will send when I get home, God Bless
	2:26pm Miss Mei: ↳ Shae @2:21 I Have no idea.
	2:27pm Shae: ↳ Miss Mei @2:26 her voice is pretty distinct, would assume it is
	2:28pm Mike Rogers: Greetings from Japan Miss Mei san!
	2:28pm Miss Mei: ↳ Shae @2:27 If so, that's wild! They are from separate sources.
	2:30pm Miss Mei: What should I draw? I think it's time for a little doodling.
	2:30pm Mike Rogers: Otis! Mh Lee! Rich! It's a smorgasbord of friends.
	2:33pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mike Rogers @2:30 Hi Mike! "It's a smorgasbord of friends" sounds a little cannibalistic. But I bet they are all delicious.
	2:33pm Mike Rogers: Wr san! Krys O san! Mr. Oxford san! Mr. Fab san! Hi!
	2:33pm Rich in Washington: Hi Mike!
	2:33pm Otis: Rockin' out to studio demos, wonder if dreams came true for some of these folks.
	2:33pm Shae: was wondering if you were gonna play this one!
	2:34pm Otis: "Welcome back my friends, to the show that never ends..."
	2:34pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @2:33 Gee, I thought Smorgasbord meant "Variety"?
	2:34pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Otis @2:34 Come inside, come inside!
	2:35pm Mr Fab: ↳ Miss Mei @2:30 may something inspired by one of these songs? Like "Eye On The Sparrow " - a sparrow with an eyeball on it.
	2:35pm Otis: ↳ Mike Rogers @2:34 Smorgasbord or... popurrí. Can apply to a crate of records or a plate of finger food.
	2:36pm MHLee: Hi Otis and Mike and Rich and Shar and Fab... did I miss someone
	2:36pm Rich in Washington: I can't think of the word 'smorgasbord' without thinking of Mason Reese.
	2:36pm MHLee: Kreightoven
	2:36pm MHLee: *shae
	2:36pm Rich in Washington: Hi MHLee!
	2:36pm Otis: I do like the 32-96k encoding on some of these. Reminds me of that period of realaudio(media) and mp3.com converging.
	2:37pm Shae: would love to know what synth is being used here.
	2:37pm Mr Fab: ↳ Otis @2:36 the internet equivalent of 78s.
	2:38pm Otis: ↳ Mr Fab @2:37 The identifiable underwater sound of magic!
	2:39pm Krys O.: Mike! You must be over the moon being a grandfather.
	2:39pm Otis: ↳ Otis @2:38 The best and holy trinity would be a 78 recorded on cassette and encoded in 2000 as a 64k mp3 file. Love it.
	2:40pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:36 LOL!!!
	2:40pm Mr Fab: ↳ Krys O. @2:39 thats right, Rich - you are not the only Sheena's grampa anymore.
	2:40pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:36 Underwood deviled ham, of all things.
	2:41pm Mr Fab: ↳ Otis @2:39 cassette? i think you mean 8-track!
	2:41pm Shae: interesting chords here
	2:43pm Otis: ↳ Mr Fab @2:41 Speaking of 8-Tracks, loved the doc "so wrong they're right"
	2:44pm Shae: ↳ Otis @2:43 Oh yeah, that's a great one, love that woman they interviewed who just obsessively bought the stock of any that came to the local thrift store
	2:44pm Otis: ↳ Song: "Makin' It" by ""The Closet Queen"" Move over Meatballs!
	2:45pm Otis: ↳ Shae @2:44 I need to watch it again. So cool.
	2:46pm Shae: Mei, I showed you that doc if you remember
	2:46pm Otis: ↳ Song: "Makin' It" by ""The Closet Queen"" Gawd, I love this. Really, so much better than the original.
	2:48pm MHLee: I need to watch the doc about industrial musicals. Great songs like "My Bathroom (Is a Private Kind of Place)
	2:48pm listener kreightoven: Hi MHLee!! :)
	2:48pm Shae: i can only imagine this was recorded while violently pacing around the room
	2:48pm MHLee: But it's only on netflex which I don't have
	2:50pm Otis: ↳ MHLee @2:48 It's really so good. Took a trip to Toronto to see it at Hot Docs on release. Touching at the end and our own Don Bolles is in it too. I highly recommend the book as well (+ the double vinyl from Mondo). www.industrialmusicals.com
	2:52pm Mr. Oxford: Thank you Miss Mei for a great show!
	2:52pm MHLee: ↳ Otis @2:50 Well that's a ringing endorsement. Will find a way to get it. Need a new book.
	2:52pm Krys O.: Thanks for great selections!
	2:53pm Kitschy Mama: Luv yer show!!!!
	2:54pm Miss Mei: We have a couple extra songs playing after! :)
	2:55pm Shae: Naming your children based on how well they rhyme for the sake of song
	👻 2:55pm WR: ↳ Otis @2:50 Don B/Kitten Sparkles did an episode on the Industrial Musicals.
	2:55pm MHLee: Thanks Miss Mei, I'll kick around
	2:55pm Rich in Washington: Wonderful show today, Miss Mei! Thanks so much!
	2:55pm MHLee: ↳ WR @2:55 I did an episode about bathrooms and garbage dumps
	2:55pm Otis: ↳ WR @2:55 That was a good one WR
	2:56pm MHLee: Oh wait you knew that, I thought I was replying to Otis
	👻 2:56pm WR: ↳ Otis @2:55 the link wfmu.org...
	2:57pm Shae: Little miss, take my HANH HANH
	👻 2:58pm WR: ↳ MHLee @2:55 Yep, your dumps episode is fun. I want to listen to it again.
	2:58pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "Little Miss/Please (Excerpts)" by "Unknown" Acetate from Ebay?
	2:58pm Miss Mei: ↳ MHLee @2:58 Yes. I was unable to afford it.
	2:59pm MHLee: ↳ Miss Mei @2:58 I've encountered the same thing.
	3:02pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "With Love From Me 2 U" by "Unknown" GENIUS!
	3:03pm MHLee: This is excellent
	3:04pm Shae: this is wild
	3:04pm Otis: I feel inspired today to start my singing career and sing songs about my cat and how much I love to eat Pasta with Sondy and chat on WFMU while listening to friends.
	3:06pm Mr Fab: ↳ Otis @3:04 yes! Set to a hissy Casio recording, perhaps?
	3:08pm Otis: ↳ Mr Fab @3:06 Sure, sample a layer of hiss and loop it in the backdrop. Fun!
	3:11pm MHLee: ↳ Otis @3:08 Considered doing that to make mock 78s
	3:13pm Mr Fab: Bryan Ferry made a whole album that sounded like a 78 - the Bryan Ferry orchestra.
	3:13pm Otis: ↳ MHLee @3:11 Would love to hear that.
	3:14pm Otis: ↳ Mr Fab @3:13 Oh yea? I'll look that up, thanks Fab.
	3:15pm Shae: i forgot about this one, amazing
	3:16pm Mr Fab: ↳ Otis @3:14 It's called The Jazz Age. Really cool - lo-fi mono early jazz versions of Roxy/Ferry classic. Probably sold 12 copies.
	3:16pm Otis: Seriously Rockin'
	3:17pm Mike Rogers: 12 copies!? We'll be rich!
	3:18pm Otis: ↳ Mr Fab @3:16 Discogs reads a lot of haves, bookmarked - www.discogs.com...
	3:18pm coelacanth∅: 'show's still on?
	3:19pm Miss Mei: Yep!
	3:19pm Otis: ↳ Song: "Rockin' In The USA" by "Unknown" I would love to hear a whole album by this unknown artist.
	3:19pm coelacanth∅: i expect to see the lighters up when this song ends!
	3:19pm Otis: Welcome coel!
	3:19pm coelacanth∅: hi Miss Mei!
	3:20pm coelacanth∅: hi Otis!
	3:20pm Miss Mei: ↳ Otis @3:19 A lot of times, when I sit down to write a song, it ends up sounding like that
	3:20pm Mike Rogers: Thanks Miss Mei san!
	3:21pm Barno in Akron: How do you do, fellow kids?
	3:24pm coelacanth∅: this sounds like a cassette that was left in a hot car on the passenger seat with the window open during heavy rai -transferred to the lowest bitrate mp3... yet it's still beautiful
	3:24pm coelacanth∅: (rai = rain)
	3:31pm Miss Mei: Thanks for listening, everybody! I had so much fun putting this episode together. :)
	3:33pm Otis: Thanks for sharing with us today Mei. So many great discoveries. Take care all.
	3:34pm Mr Fab: ↳ Miss Mei @3:31 it was a spectacular spectacle!
	3:34pm coelacanth∅: i wish you were on 3-5 instead of 1-3 -so's not to conflict with Tony's show. Thanks Miss Mei
	👻 3:59pm WR: Thank you! Will try to relisten soon when not so busy.

	1:48pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Song: "It Comes Down" by "Unknown" This sounds magical in a way I cannot explain. Kind of like someone with the lovable spirit of Laurie Anderson.

	2:07pm Otis: Was it Mark Mark Mark or Bark Bark Bark or... oh who cares, it was awesome!
	2:09pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Honeymooners Theme" by "Unknown" Quite sinister innit?

	2:14pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Miss Mei @2:13 It's incredible! The noise just makes it more fascinating.

	2:21pm MHLee: This one is in the stuff Irwin sent
	2:21pm Shae: is this the same person as live in maid?

	2:22pm MHLee: You're very welcome, will send when I get home, God Bless
	2:26pm Miss Mei: ↳ Shae @2:21 I Have no idea.
	2:27pm Shae: ↳ Miss Mei @2:26 her voice is pretty distinct, would assume it is
	2:28pm Mike Rogers: Greetings from Japan Miss Mei san!
	2:28pm Miss Mei: ↳ Shae @2:27 If so, that's wild! They are from separate sources.
	2:30pm Miss Mei: What should I draw? I think it's time for a little doodling.
	2:30pm Mike Rogers: Otis! Mh Lee! Rich! It's a smorgasbord of friends.
	2:33pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mike Rogers @2:30 Hi Mike! "It's a smorgasbord of friends" sounds a little cannibalistic. But I bet they are all delicious.
	2:33pm Mike Rogers: Wr san! Krys O san! Mr. Oxford san! Mr. Fab san! Hi!
	2:33pm Rich in Washington: Hi Mike!
	2:33pm Otis: Rockin' out to studio demos, wonder if dreams came true for some of these folks.
	2:33pm Shae: was wondering if you were gonna play this one!
	2:34pm Otis: "Welcome back my friends, to the show that never ends..."
	2:34pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @2:33 Gee, I thought Smorgasbord meant "Variety"?
	2:34pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Otis @2:34 Come inside, come inside!
	2:35pm Mr Fab: ↳ Miss Mei @2:30 may something inspired by one of these songs? Like "Eye On The Sparrow " - a sparrow with an eyeball on it.
	2:35pm Otis: ↳ Mike Rogers @2:34 Smorgasbord or... popurrí. Can apply to a crate of records or a plate of finger food.
	2:36pm MHLee: Hi Otis and Mike and Rich and Shar and Fab... did I miss someone
	2:36pm Rich in Washington: I can't think of the word 'smorgasbord' without thinking of Mason Reese.
	2:36pm MHLee: Kreightoven
	2:36pm MHLee: *shae
	2:36pm Rich in Washington: Hi MHLee!
	2:36pm Otis: I do like the 32-96k encoding on some of these. Reminds me of that period of realaudio(media) and mp3.com converging.
	2:37pm Shae: would love to know what synth is being used here.
	2:37pm Mr Fab: ↳ Otis @2:36 the internet equivalent of 78s.
	2:38pm Otis: ↳ Mr Fab @2:37 The identifiable underwater sound of magic!
	2:39pm Krys O.: Mike! You must be over the moon being a grandfather.
	2:39pm Otis: ↳ Otis @2:38 The best and holy trinity would be a 78 recorded on cassette and encoded in 2000 as a 64k mp3 file. Love it.
	2:40pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:36 LOL!!!
	2:40pm Mr Fab: ↳ Krys O. @2:39 thats right, Rich - you are not the only Sheena's grampa anymore.
	2:40pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:36 Underwood deviled ham, of all things.
	2:41pm Mr Fab: ↳ Otis @2:39 cassette? i think you mean 8-track!
	2:41pm Shae: interesting chords here
	2:43pm Otis: ↳ Mr Fab @2:41 Speaking of 8-Tracks, loved the doc "so wrong they're right"
	2:44pm Shae: ↳ Otis @2:43 Oh yeah, that's a great one, love that woman they interviewed who just obsessively bought the stock of any that came to the local thrift store
	2:44pm Otis: ↳ Song: "Makin' It" by ""The Closet Queen"" Move over Meatballs!
	2:45pm Otis: ↳ Shae @2:44 I need to watch it again. So cool.
	2:46pm Shae: Mei, I showed you that doc if you remember
	2:46pm Otis: ↳ Song: "Makin' It" by ""The Closet Queen"" Gawd, I love this. Really, so much better than the original.
	2:48pm MHLee: I need to watch the doc about industrial musicals. Great songs like "My Bathroom (Is a Private Kind of Place)
	2:48pm listener kreightoven: Hi MHLee!! :)
	2:48pm Shae: i can only imagine this was recorded while violently pacing around the room
	2:48pm MHLee: But it's only on netflex which I don't have
	2:50pm Otis: ↳ MHLee @2:48 It's really so good. Took a trip to Toronto to see it at Hot Docs on release. Touching at the end and our own Don Bolles is in it too. I highly recommend the book as well (+ the double vinyl from Mondo). www.industrialmusicals.com
	2:52pm Mr. Oxford: Thank you Miss Mei for a great show!
	2:52pm MHLee: ↳ Otis @2:50 Well that's a ringing endorsement. Will find a way to get it. Need a new book.

	2:55pm Shae: Naming your children based on how well they rhyme for the sake of song
	👻 2:55pm WR: ↳ Otis @2:50 Don B/Kitten Sparkles did an episode on the Industrial Musicals.
	2:55pm MHLee: Thanks Miss Mei, I'll kick around
	2:55pm Rich in Washington: Wonderful show today, Miss Mei! Thanks so much!
	2:55pm MHLee: ↳ WR @2:55 I did an episode about bathrooms and garbage dumps
	2:55pm Otis: ↳ WR @2:55 That was a good one WR
	2:56pm MHLee: Oh wait you knew that, I thought I was replying to Otis
	👻 2:56pm WR: ↳ Otis @2:55 the link wfmu.org...
	2:57pm Shae: Little miss, take my HANH HANH
	👻 2:58pm WR: ↳ MHLee @2:55 Yep, your dumps episode is fun. I want to listen to it again.
	2:58pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "Little Miss/Please (Excerpts)" by "Unknown" Acetate from Ebay?
	2:58pm Miss Mei: ↳ MHLee @2:58 Yes. I was unable to afford it.
	2:59pm MHLee: ↳ Miss Mei @2:58 I've encountered the same thing.
	3:02pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "With Love From Me 2 U" by "Unknown" GENIUS!
	3:03pm MHLee: This is excellent
	3:04pm Shae: this is wild
	3:04pm Otis: I feel inspired today to start my singing career and sing songs about my cat and how much I love to eat Pasta with Sondy and chat on WFMU while listening to friends.
	3:06pm Mr Fab: ↳ Otis @3:04 yes! Set to a hissy Casio recording, perhaps?
	3:08pm Otis: ↳ Mr Fab @3:06 Sure, sample a layer of hiss and loop it in the backdrop. Fun!
	3:11pm MHLee: ↳ Otis @3:08 Considered doing that to make mock 78s
	3:13pm Mr Fab: Bryan Ferry made a whole album that sounded like a 78 - the Bryan Ferry orchestra.
	3:13pm Otis: ↳ MHLee @3:11 Would love to hear that.
	3:14pm Otis: ↳ Mr Fab @3:13 Oh yea? I'll look that up, thanks Fab.
	3:15pm Shae: i forgot about this one, amazing
	3:16pm Mr Fab: ↳ Otis @3:14 It's called The Jazz Age. Really cool - lo-fi mono early jazz versions of Roxy/Ferry classic. Probably sold 12 copies.
	3:16pm Otis: Seriously Rockin'
	3:17pm Mike Rogers: 12 copies!? We'll be rich!
	3:18pm Otis: ↳ Mr Fab @3:16 Discogs reads a lot of haves, bookmarked - www.discogs.com...
	3:18pm coelacanth∅: 'show's still on?
	3:19pm Miss Mei: Yep!

	3:19pm Otis: Welcome coel!
	3:19pm coelacanth∅: hi Miss Mei!
	3:20pm coelacanth∅: hi Otis!
	3:20pm Miss Mei: ↳ Otis @3:19 A lot of times, when I sit down to write a song, it ends up sounding like that
	3:20pm Mike Rogers: Thanks Miss Mei san!
	3:21pm Barno in Akron: How do you do, fellow kids?
	3:24pm coelacanth∅: this sounds like a cassette that was left in a hot car on the passenger seat with the window open during heavy rai -transferred to the lowest bitrate mp3... yet it's still beautiful
	3:24pm coelacanth∅: (rai = rain)
	3:31pm Miss Mei: Thanks for listening, everybody! I had so much fun putting this episode together. :)
	3:33pm Otis: Thanks for sharing with us today Mei. So many great discoveries. Take care all.
	3:34pm Mr Fab: ↳ Miss Mei @3:31 it was a spectacular spectacle!
	3:34pm coelacanth∅: i wish you were on 3-5 instead of 1-3 -so's not to conflict with Tony's show. Thanks Miss Mei
	👻 3:59pm WR: Thank you! Will try to relisten soon when not so busy.
