Hey, Matt and everybody! Sorry about the one-channel sound of this record...damn Turntable 3! We'll solve it....

Wow, Jack Kaufman's taking innuendo to new depths! (pun be pardoned.)

Margaret'll take 'em to the door, when Jack comes innuendo.

Heavily noise interference on this one, but the content shines through strong!

JOE! I love the surface noise--CHEERS!!!

Hey, Chop Scott! Yes, we're listening to surface noise with a little bit of music tonight!

Enchanting Slavic strings!

Russian music played by actual political refugees (possibly)!

Hey, Fernando! Yes, I'm digging into my 78 collection for tonight's show.
Avatar 8:25pm
Matt from Springfield:

Now would be a good time to turn up the speakers and microwave my leftovers for dinner (coincidentally - or IS IT?! - "gyro pizza"!!!)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:26pm
pacific standard simon:

I think my 78 collection only ever amounted to one Spike Jones record that someone dropped a 6-pack of Anchor Steam Beer on. :(
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:27pm
Joe McG:

@pss: Ha ha!
  8:28pm
Sue:

Joe!! How's it going? Awesome to see you playing all these 78's again!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:29pm
pacific standard simon:

It was shellacked!

patro:

When I was a kid we had a bunch of Spike Jones 78's. My father and grandfather even saw them in concert once. I wonder where those records are now
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:30pm
Joe McG:

Hey Sue! Glad you're liking 'em!
Avatar 8:30pm
Matt from Springfield:

@PSS: If it had to go, it would be fitting if they dropped the 6 pack of beer on the Spike Jones record--AS it was playing! Spike would appreciate the craziness of that sound over his sounds, wherever he is!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:35pm
Joe McG:

@patro: Spike Jones records are fortunately pretty easy to find if you ever have the desire to hear them again!
Avatar 8:36pm
Matt from Springfield:

Love how this yodel is jumping all around with the distorted old record! :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:38pm
Joe McG:

@Matt: I tried this one out in another studio earlier today and it played fine, Matt. Plagued by technical difficulties this evening, I'm afraid. It did sound pretty cool, though!

You could make a marathon premium of loop track 78 surface noise -- don't know how popular it would be, though.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:44pm
Joe McG:

@pss: More popular than any premium ever.
Avatar 8:45pm
I X Key!:

! I'd pledge for that (o:
Avatar 8:46pm
Matt from Springfield:

@PSS: Actually, I think a killer premium idea would be a collection of DJ "loops"--the exact segments a bunch of FMU DJs use on repeat -- so listeners can loop/repeat them as long as they like! Joe's "Crystal Clear"! Therese's Shuggie Otis! Julie's "jibrille-silent mourning"! Anything of Irwin's! Though I think Ol' Pal Irwin won't give his up to the public... :)
Avatar 8:47pm
Matt from Springfield:

...and of course, surface noise loops, in 5 different states of record quality! :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:48pm
pacific standard simon:

I'm a big fan of the Shemp Howard loop tapes.

That steamboat noise sounds like when I was a kid, blowing on cardboard tubes.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:51pm
pacific standard simon:

Ooops, gotta run again!
Avatar 8:52pm
Matt from Springfield:

...or a bottle partly filled with liquid!

Catch ya later, PSS!

Record skip!!

Thanks for listening, folks! We made it! See some of you on Thursday morning for something completely different.
