	3:10pm common: how goes it, scott?
	3:10pm adam_nspy: Started my morning with several full LP spins including Sun City Girl's Horse Cock Phephner and Virgin Insanity's "illusions of the maintenance man". I drank lots of coffee. Now, here I am.
	3:11pm Mike East: need coffee....i'll be back. anybody need anything?
	🧩 3:13pm Ike: Mike East, yeah, bring me back a new brain please.
	3:14pm Scott Williams: doing good common! ha, saw the horse cock on yr FB adam. good un to start yer day
	3:21pm adam_nspy: Too bad NONE of the tracks are radio friendly (off the top of my head) -- great stuff so far, especially this Gunter Maas.
	3:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Guten Gunter !
	3:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...back when you hadda Patachich a Moog by hand...
	3:25pm Matt W: Hello Scott and fellow internet explorers!
	3:25pm northguineahills: ran out of hands...
	3:34pm northguineahills: Thought this was Henry Flynt. Awesome!
	3:36pm Scott Williams: "Kill the Klansman" is OK, we can do "asshole"!
	3:36pm Scott Williams: (that's @ Adam, btw)
	3:40pm Yair Yona: Howdy, earthlings
	3:41pm DCE: this is pretty fantastic...hey Yair
	3:41pm Matt W: tips hat
	3:43pm adam_nspy: Can we call it an official request?
	3:43pm Mike East: sorry, Ike. They were out of brains, so I got you an iced coffee.
	3:43pm adam_nspy: In honor of Ken reading his request cards...
	🧩 3:44pm Rev. Turnip Druid: [crashes through window, arms flailing] EGON BONDEEEE! ... g'afternoon all. This LP is the cornerstone of all that's holy. One of a few such cornerstones.
	3:44pm Scott Williams: @adam, I think we can pull it off somewhere, sure! tho I do already have Paris 1942 pulled, would that count?
	3:48pm Cecile: the dan!
	3:48pm kirk from beer city usa: thanks for playing steely dan.
	3:49pm Carmichael: Hiya Scotty, hey everyones. Thought I tuned into 98 Rock for a minute.
	3:49pm fred: @RTD: We window shard sweepers may have to unionize if you get back to these entrances. Are you on a Zoyd Wheeler kind of deal? We could get overtime pay from the DEA then...
	🧩 3:51pm Ike: Hmm. Supremely tacky, but not as terrible as I would've expected.
	3:52pm adam_nspy: @scott absolutely that would count
	3:53pm thedunkel: Yeah Scott!
	3:54pm Cecile: Fagen and Becker are some of the most misanthropic people in music.
	3:54pm common: love me some steely dan!
	3:54pm Cecile: And all their songs are about booze, jailbait and cocaine.
	3:55pm Andrew Waterloo: Phish is way more offensive than Steely Dan.
	3:55pm Carmichael: They talk about their monkey wrench hijinks with Jay and the Americans with absolute glee.
	3:56pm northguineahills: Can't move my mouse. My hand is cramped like a claw after all of the clicky stars (yet I can type).
	3:57pm Cecile: At any rate, I never turn to Donald Fagen for his warm and fuzzy life-affirming thoughts on the human race.
	3:59pm northguineahills: Yes, It was awesome to hear Lou! Next time I'll shout w/ capital letters!
	🧩 4:00pm Planet Tyler: Nikki and Epic 4 Evah!
	4:01pm fred: @Cecile: Anyone who'd spew warm and fuzzy thoughts on the human race to my face would probably be trying to sell me something. Fagen might be too, but he's not pressing the issue
	4:05pm Cecile: No, fred, i think he truly doesn't like people all that much.
	4:05pm kirk from beer city usa: how can "space" sound like "nasty"?
	4:05pm Marshall Stacks: Steely Dan is (was?) one of the most subversive bands ever, starting with their name. And those lyrics in Top 40 pop? Fantastic.
	4:06pm Cecile: I also laughed out loud when Fagen grumbled about Bob Dylan in that interview.
	4:06pm fred: (I don't like Steely Dan, but came to have a grudging respect for them, in part for the attitude)
	4:08pm fred: @Cecile: I did too. He kinda has a point, not a fair one maybe but it was a nice shot
	4:09pm Cecile: one of the funniest Dan-related bits I ever saw was when Clemmie (the especially promiscuous female cop) got fired from her job on a Reno 911! episode and dedicates all her time to being a Steely Dan groupie.
	4:10pm Cecile: "The Dan are my life!"
	4:11pm northguineahills: Elodie Lauten. Hurrazah!
	4:14pm Monica: scott, lovely sounds today. that herman's rocket track bears an uncanny resemblance to Belle Epoque's disco hit "Miss Broadway." (1977, France). Gotta send it to you!
	4:15pm Scott Williams: Mo! Thanks a bunch - yes, please send, would love to hear it!
	🧩 4:16pm tim from champaign: @ Cecile - Did you post something recently about the book "What Are You Doing Here" by Lana Dawes?
	4:18pm Cecile: nope, tim
	4:19pm Cecile: Here's the exact quote from Clemmie. It's funnier that I remembered: "I'm out of jail, and I'm living my dream. You know what I realized? I'm not meant to be a cop. I am not meant to be a magician's assistant. I was not meant to go to college. I was not meant to donate blood. I am a Babylon Sister, and I was meant to shake it with Steely Dan, motherfuckers! Whoo! Owh, owh, owh!"
	🧩 4:20pm tim from champaign: Thanks, Cecile. I must have been thinking of something else.
	🧩 4:22pm tim from champaign: This Friday evening I'm DJing at an art gallery for the opening reception of a bicycle print exhibition. Sooooo....I'm looking for bicycle related songs. Any suggestions/ideas?
	4:23pm Cecile: My White Bicycle - Tomorrow War of the Superbikes - the Meatmen Daisy, Daisy
	4:24pm Cecile: and congrats, tim!
	4:24pm northguineahills: I have to miss work tomorrow to go to court b/c on July 4th, my friend's rooftop bbq was broken up by the fuzz. me, and 4 other lads, were handcuffed and stopped and frisked (they looked to see if we had warrants). They claim landlords need to have a rooftop access permit, so we were trespassing (out of the 70+ on the roof). It's only $75, but my summons is illegible since it was a carbon copy. I've gone into the court database, and my name is nowhere to be found. The court info office won't pick up or answer my voice mails. I just wish I could pay the fines and get this out of my hair.
	4:24pm Scott Williams: Tim, there's one by Andy Partridge's Dukes of Stratosphere, I can't remember the name but it's great
	🧩 4:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Tim: kind of a stretch, but my first thought was "the broken wheel" from COIL (from the 'gold is the metal with the broadest shoulders' compilation, i think)
	🧩 4:25pm tim from champaign: Man, that sucks NGH. What a hassle.
	4:25pm adam_nspy: @Tim, you should play some Desperate Bicycles. And then try and fit in Kath Bloom and Loren Connor's "Bicycle"
	4:26pm Cecile: Bike Ride to the Moon, Scott.
	4:26pm Cecile: yeah, and what adam said. Maybe you can get out of the ticket.
	4:27pm Scott Williams: yep that's the one
	🧩 4:28pm chris: Was just listening to an archived Dance with me, Stanley, when I realized SW was on... tuned in and hear DJ Stashu.. wow..
	🧩 4:28pm Ike: NGH, I'm clueless about these things, but if your name isn't in the court database, how they can get you for ignoring it? And did you check all possible misspellings of your name?
	🧩 4:28pm chris: And another reason every family needs an attorney, NGH. That is effed up.
	4:28pm northguineahills: Man, Trunk recs is always so much fun!
	🧩 4:29pm tim from champaign: Oh yeah, this is good stuff! Thanks folks!
	4:29pm Cecile: I love Dance with Me. It completely commits to its loony dance-pop vibe.
	4:30pm Cecile: we sang bobby shaftoe when we were kids!
	🧩 4:31pm Rev. Turnip Druid: That Dukes of Stratosphear thing is a great one.
	🧩 4:31pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ...likewise that Fabio premium this year, the ghosty one. Brilliant.
	🧩 4:32pm chris: has everyone gotten their swag but me? dang!
	4:33pm northguineahills: Coming October, I'm upping my pledge after I pay off my debts, now I'm finally employed. Can I still get dj premiums?
	🧩 4:34pm Ike: Also, NGH, if the cops didn't seize all your cash, grill, and valuables, then you're doing better than a lot of people out there who have had their stuff straight-up legally STOLEN by police due to this horrifying shit called "civil asset forfeiture": www.newyorker.com...
	4:34pm Scott Williams: Chris, email me offlist & I'll look into it... fyi, we still have a few tubs of stuff going out later this week
	4:34pm Cecile: I got mine in June. I was shocked and pleased.
	4:35pm mg: Ahhhh. This is what Pulp samples in Acrylic Afternoons!
	4:35pm Dave in PA: my head a splode
	4:35pm Mike East: @Ike I was just reading that...horrifying is the best word for it, I think.
	4:36pm Carmichael: Speaking of All American Boy, I just re-discovered the brilliant album of that name by Rick Derringer. I was a teenager again for about an hour.
	4:37pm northguineahills: I've read and have friends that have stuff ripped off by the fuzz. I work w/ a few retired coppers (nice gentlemen, they are), and their only explanation is my friend's new condo landlord wasn't happy w/ the Independence day festivities, even though it was crazier on other rooftops in said hood.
	🧩 4:38pm chris: I think you're at the top of everyone's list Cecile! I'm envious.
	4:38pm northguineahills: Damn, I never get tired of Scott playing Wicker Man sntrk.
	4:40pm Cecile: I've had to wait until August in the past, so this was a very nice surprise for me, Chris.
	4:40pm northguineahills: I sang the 'The Grand 'ole Duke of York when I was in cub scouts.
	4:42pm Jon: Wow been away from the sw for some years. Stumbled back and wow so glad. Hi Scott from sunny London and thanks. Remember babies born.
	4:48pm northguineahills: err..., what's this drone? It's nice. I've been on an Eleh kick lately.
	4:49pm Chris from DC: This is really nice to zone out to. Is it still Celer?
	4:49pm Scott Williams: @ngh, this is still Celer. @Jon, welcome back! which babies now?
	4:50pm kirk from beer city usa: hi tim. obviously, this is on your playlist already: theme to "breaking away" by balance.
	4:57pm glenn: bike - pink floyd.
	🧩 4:58pm tim from champaign: Hold up! kirk from beer city usa? You're cat looks like he should be named after a dictator. Anyway, the Breaking Away theme was not on my list. Thanks for the tip. PS Are you going to UFO Dictator this year? I'm DJing Saturday night.
	4:59pm Cecile: oh! And music from the Triplets of Belleville. That movie is all about cycling.
	5:00pm glenn: well, and triplets.
	5:00pm Carmichael: The soundtrack to The Bicycle Thief.
	5:02pm glenn: tour de france - kraftwerk.
	5:03pm Chris from DC: Leyland Kirby
	🧩 5:03pm tim from champaign: Oh yeah, more good suggestions! Thanks.
	5:03pm glenn: bicycle race - queen.
	5:03pm kirk from beer city usa: tim - if I attend UFO dictator night #2, I can see you and PK! not bad
	5:03pm northguineahills: Caretaker is V/VM aka James Kirby.
	5:04pm glenn: www.theguardian.com...
	🧩 5:07pm tim from champaign: @glenn - That's the jackpot! Thanks man! @kirk - PK's going to be around? Sweet! That'd be cool to see you and Mrs Beer City USA. I should be up to beer city to see my folks sometime in October. I'll keep you posted.
	5:09pm northguineahills: Leyland Kirby is just another alias. Elodie Lauten played a nice set at Share, o.blaat's shindig in 2006. (If memory serves).
	5:13pm Chris from DC: Ah, thianks NGH. Only ever known him as Leyland.
	5:15pm Carmichael: OK, now this is mind bending. Clicky Star for the Greek Guy!
	5:30pm Carmichael: Swamp Dogg has always been this cool.
	🧩 5:30pm tim from champaign: I think there's a lesson to be learned from this song.
	5:31pm northguineahills: I think he goes by Leyland, but his birth name is James.
	5:32pm Carmichael: One of his finest songs. Also, I Aint Sellin Out, I'm Buyin In is a thing of wonder.
	5:33pm BZ: Black Pearl, yes! Takes me back to when I first started listening to this great show.
	5:34pm msInfo: Oh, yeah, Tim? What would that lesson be?
	5:35pm Scott Williams: thanks BZ! is this my old pal BZ?
	5:40pm BZ: If that pal's name is really Greg, then yes. And we are pals. (But I know there are people who have those initials.)
	5:41pm Cecile: I LOVE THIS DANG OL'SONG!
	5:41pm Scott Williams: different BZ! I very much like several Gregs tho, so if you're one of them, yer solid
	🧩 5:43pm Matt from Springfield: Woooo! You set the summer sun on fire with this Heatwave, Scott! Smooooooth jam.
	🧩 5:43pm tim from champaign: @msInfo - don't leave ol' girl home alone when Swamp Dogg is sniffin' around.
	5:43pm Scott Williams: the smoothest! love heatwave so much, they even led me to daft punk!
	5:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yeah - 'Bike' - last song on Floyd's 1st 'Piper @ Gates of Dawn' - which album must be mentioned every week ...after which 'Bike Ride to the Moon' must be partly fashioned (~Dukes Forever!!~)...
	5:44pm Cecile: @tim, yeah that's an episode of Deadly Affairs waiting to happen. Scott, I call this their Rotary Connection song. It's so cool.
	5:44pm Cecile: YES!!!!!!
	🧩 5:45pm Matt from Springfield: Heatwave -> Daft Punk, I can see/(hear) that! SEE!!
	5:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I see - I see...one day I will wake up, pay my Comcast bill - & FMU will have gone all Disco ...I know...I know...
	5:45pm Cecile: roller disco song par excellence
	5:46pm northguineahills: I love the gif of Nick Offerman dancing to this daft punk song.
	5:47pm Jeff: Ha! You got sucked into the mainstream for a song! (and have the courage to just stand up and own it)
	5:47pm Cecile: What I like about this song is that it's like CHic - standard rock band instrumentation but a completely diff result.
	🧩 5:47pm Matt from Springfield: Hoverboard disco song, even. Why can't our recreation technology catch up with the quality of dance music? @RRN63: Sesame Street went all disco briefly in '79. Interesting YT clips of those moments.
	5:48pm efd: @RRN63 if that's your fear then I advise you not to tune in to my show on Aug. 28th.
	5:48pm Cecile: I miss a halfway decent song being a lightning rod for everyone. You know like Atomic Dog. Or Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground)
	5:48pm northguineahills: www.youtube.com...
	5:48pm Cecile: efd, disco mania? hope hope hope
	5:49pm efd: @Cecile, indeed.
	5:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: efd: No - that'll be the fun of it! See if you can make me ☆ Disco trax !...
	5:50pm Scott Williams: can't wait, Evan
	5:50pm Cecile: I like the tougher disco, funkier stuff. A lot of the Salsoul stuff leaves me cold. But my DNA contains huge parts of Chic, War, Isley Bros, etc.
	5:50pm Cecile: Although I have an unnatural fondness for Silver Convention.
	5:51pm northguineahills: efd, PLEASE remind me of your Aug 28th show!
	🧩 5:51pm Rev. Turnip Druid: SILVER CONVENTION!
	🧩 5:52pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Cecile: GET UP AND BOOGIE sealed their place in Valhalla for all time.
	5:52pm northguineahills: (Your show doesn't normally fall on my normal WFMU listening opportunities, I normally catch you during your archives).
	5:52pm Cecile: THAT'S RIGHT!
	5:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...plenty of good Soul ~ Funk w/ a DanceyBeat...if ya Pick&Choose ...it was just a lotta years of other stuff to live thru if (like me) ya weren't in the City w/ camp gays & minorities & suchlike who really were on the edge...
	5:54pm Cecile: Oh, I understand. There was so much good funk out there, and where I lived, all we heard was the BeeGees and suchlike.
	5:54pm northguineahills: Thanks Scott. Superawesome set!
	5:55pm Cecile: EFD, do you have Peter Brown's Do Ya Wanna Get Funky with Me? That is a barnburner.
	5:55pm Cecile: Feeling this Kode 9 bigtime.
	🧩 5:57pm Matt from Springfield: I think I deduced my prob listening live @work--I'm thinking they just don't allocate enough bandwidth for web streaming. YT plays, Archive Pop-Up (64k) plays, live Pop-Up (128k) doesn't. Unless we get a 32k Pop-Up, or I keep emailing fragments of programs to my work box in hopes of getting the 32k pls. Anyways, I might be back on live this week (fingers crossed!)
	5:57pm efd: @Cecile, your request has been noted! @NGH, I'll try to remember to give you a shout when I see you on the comments that week. Great show, Scott! A pleasure as always.
	5:57pm Scott Williams: thanks errybody! this was fun, see you next week...
	🧩 5:58pm Matt from Springfield: And fortunately, I will be @home for EFD's disco night--look forward to some great grooves and hooks!
	5:59pm Cecile: great show, Scott!
	🧩 5:59pm Matt from Springfield: Thanks Scott! What an amazing second part of the show, and the first part I need to catch! Have a good evening everyone!
	6:00pm Carmichael: I'm reading the Swamp Dogg bio in Spin magazine online. It's the funniest thing ever.

	3:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Guten Gunter !
	3:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...back when you hadda Patachich a Moog by hand...
	3:25pm Matt W: Hello Scott and fellow internet explorers!
	3:25pm northguineahills: ran out of hands...
	3:34pm northguineahills: Thought this was Henry Flynt. Awesome!
	3:36pm Scott Williams: "Kill the Klansman" is OK, we can do "asshole"!

	3:43pm adam_nspy: In honor of Ken reading his request cards...
	🧩 3:44pm Rev. Turnip Druid: [crashes through window, arms flailing] EGON BONDEEEE! ... g'afternoon all. This LP is the cornerstone of all that's holy. One of a few such cornerstones.
	3:44pm Scott Williams: @adam, I think we can pull it off somewhere, sure! tho I do already have Paris 1942 pulled, would that count?
	3:48pm Cecile: the dan!
	3:48pm kirk from beer city usa: thanks for playing steely dan.
	3:49pm Carmichael: Hiya Scotty, hey everyones. Thought I tuned into 98 Rock for a minute.
	3:49pm fred: @RTD: We window shard sweepers may have to unionize if you get back to these entrances. Are you on a Zoyd Wheeler kind of deal? We could get overtime pay from the DEA then...
	🧩 3:51pm Ike: Hmm. Supremely tacky, but not as terrible as I would've expected.
	3:52pm adam_nspy: @scott absolutely that would count
	3:53pm thedunkel: Yeah Scott!
	3:54pm Cecile: Fagen and Becker are some of the most misanthropic people in music.
	3:54pm common: love me some steely dan!
	3:54pm Cecile: And all their songs are about booze, jailbait and cocaine.
	3:55pm Andrew Waterloo: Phish is way more offensive than Steely Dan.
	3:55pm Carmichael: They talk about their monkey wrench hijinks with Jay and the Americans with absolute glee.
	3:56pm northguineahills: Can't move my mouse. My hand is cramped like a claw after all of the clicky stars (yet I can type).
	3:57pm Cecile: At any rate, I never turn to Donald Fagen for his warm and fuzzy life-affirming thoughts on the human race.
	3:59pm northguineahills: Yes, It was awesome to hear Lou! Next time I'll shout w/ capital letters!
	🧩 4:00pm Planet Tyler: Nikki and Epic 4 Evah!
	4:01pm fred: @Cecile: Anyone who'd spew warm and fuzzy thoughts on the human race to my face would probably be trying to sell me something. Fagen might be too, but he's not pressing the issue
	4:05pm Cecile: No, fred, i think he truly doesn't like people all that much.
	4:05pm kirk from beer city usa: how can "space" sound like "nasty"?
	4:05pm Marshall Stacks: Steely Dan is (was?) one of the most subversive bands ever, starting with their name. And those lyrics in Top 40 pop? Fantastic.
	4:06pm Cecile: I also laughed out loud when Fagen grumbled about Bob Dylan in that interview.
	4:06pm fred: (I don't like Steely Dan, but came to have a grudging respect for them, in part for the attitude)
	4:08pm fred: @Cecile: I did too. He kinda has a point, not a fair one maybe but it was a nice shot
	4:09pm Cecile: one of the funniest Dan-related bits I ever saw was when Clemmie (the especially promiscuous female cop) got fired from her job on a Reno 911! episode and dedicates all her time to being a Steely Dan groupie.
	4:10pm Cecile: "The Dan are my life!"
	4:11pm northguineahills: Elodie Lauten. Hurrazah!
	4:14pm Monica: scott, lovely sounds today. that herman's rocket track bears an uncanny resemblance to Belle Epoque's disco hit "Miss Broadway." (1977, France). Gotta send it to you!
	4:15pm Scott Williams: Mo! Thanks a bunch - yes, please send, would love to hear it!
	🧩 4:16pm tim from champaign: @ Cecile - Did you post something recently about the book "What Are You Doing Here" by Lana Dawes?
	4:18pm Cecile: nope, tim
	4:19pm Cecile: Here's the exact quote from Clemmie. It's funnier that I remembered: "I'm out of jail, and I'm living my dream. You know what I realized? I'm not meant to be a cop. I am not meant to be a magician's assistant. I was not meant to go to college. I was not meant to donate blood. I am a Babylon Sister, and I was meant to shake it with Steely Dan, motherfuckers! Whoo! Owh, owh, owh!"
	🧩 4:20pm tim from champaign: Thanks, Cecile. I must have been thinking of something else.
	🧩 4:22pm tim from champaign: This Friday evening I'm DJing at an art gallery for the opening reception of a bicycle print exhibition. Sooooo....I'm looking for bicycle related songs. Any suggestions/ideas?
	4:23pm Cecile: My White Bicycle - Tomorrow War of the Superbikes - the Meatmen Daisy, Daisy
	4:24pm Cecile: and congrats, tim!
	4:24pm northguineahills: I have to miss work tomorrow to go to court b/c on July 4th, my friend's rooftop bbq was broken up by the fuzz. me, and 4 other lads, were handcuffed and stopped and frisked (they looked to see if we had warrants). They claim landlords need to have a rooftop access permit, so we were trespassing (out of the 70+ on the roof). It's only $75, but my summons is illegible since it was a carbon copy. I've gone into the court database, and my name is nowhere to be found. The court info office won't pick up or answer my voice mails. I just wish I could pay the fines and get this out of my hair.
	4:24pm Scott Williams: Tim, there's one by Andy Partridge's Dukes of Stratosphere, I can't remember the name but it's great
	🧩 4:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Tim: kind of a stretch, but my first thought was "the broken wheel" from COIL (from the 'gold is the metal with the broadest shoulders' compilation, i think)
	🧩 4:25pm tim from champaign: Man, that sucks NGH. What a hassle.
	4:25pm adam_nspy: @Tim, you should play some Desperate Bicycles. And then try and fit in Kath Bloom and Loren Connor's "Bicycle"
	4:26pm Cecile: Bike Ride to the Moon, Scott.
	4:26pm Cecile: yeah, and what adam said. Maybe you can get out of the ticket.
	4:27pm Scott Williams: yep that's the one
	🧩 4:28pm chris: Was just listening to an archived Dance with me, Stanley, when I realized SW was on... tuned in and hear DJ Stashu.. wow..
	🧩 4:28pm Ike: NGH, I'm clueless about these things, but if your name isn't in the court database, how they can get you for ignoring it? And did you check all possible misspellings of your name?
	🧩 4:28pm chris: And another reason every family needs an attorney, NGH. That is effed up.
	4:28pm northguineahills: Man, Trunk recs is always so much fun!
	🧩 4:29pm tim from champaign: Oh yeah, this is good stuff! Thanks folks!
	4:29pm Cecile: I love Dance with Me. It completely commits to its loony dance-pop vibe.
	4:30pm Cecile: we sang bobby shaftoe when we were kids!
	🧩 4:31pm Rev. Turnip Druid: That Dukes of Stratosphear thing is a great one.
	🧩 4:31pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ...likewise that Fabio premium this year, the ghosty one. Brilliant.
	🧩 4:32pm chris: has everyone gotten their swag but me? dang!
	4:33pm northguineahills: Coming October, I'm upping my pledge after I pay off my debts, now I'm finally employed. Can I still get dj premiums?
	🧩 4:34pm Ike: Also, NGH, if the cops didn't seize all your cash, grill, and valuables, then you're doing better than a lot of people out there who have had their stuff straight-up legally STOLEN by police due to this horrifying shit called "civil asset forfeiture": www.newyorker.com...
	4:34pm Scott Williams: Chris, email me offlist & I'll look into it... fyi, we still have a few tubs of stuff going out later this week
	4:34pm Cecile: I got mine in June. I was shocked and pleased.
	4:35pm mg: Ahhhh. This is what Pulp samples in Acrylic Afternoons!
	4:35pm Dave in PA: my head a splode
	4:35pm Mike East: @Ike I was just reading that...horrifying is the best word for it, I think.
	4:36pm Carmichael: Speaking of All American Boy, I just re-discovered the brilliant album of that name by Rick Derringer. I was a teenager again for about an hour.
	4:37pm northguineahills: I've read and have friends that have stuff ripped off by the fuzz. I work w/ a few retired coppers (nice gentlemen, they are), and their only explanation is my friend's new condo landlord wasn't happy w/ the Independence day festivities, even though it was crazier on other rooftops in said hood.
	🧩 4:38pm chris: I think you're at the top of everyone's list Cecile! I'm envious.
	4:38pm northguineahills: Damn, I never get tired of Scott playing Wicker Man sntrk.
	4:40pm Cecile: I've had to wait until August in the past, so this was a very nice surprise for me, Chris.
	4:40pm northguineahills: I sang the 'The Grand 'ole Duke of York when I was in cub scouts.
	4:42pm Jon: Wow been away from the sw for some years. Stumbled back and wow so glad. Hi Scott from sunny London and thanks. Remember babies born.
	4:48pm northguineahills: err..., what's this drone? It's nice. I've been on an Eleh kick lately.
	4:49pm Chris from DC: This is really nice to zone out to. Is it still Celer?
	4:49pm Scott Williams: @ngh, this is still Celer. @Jon, welcome back! which babies now?
	4:50pm kirk from beer city usa: hi tim. obviously, this is on your playlist already: theme to "breaking away" by balance.
	4:57pm glenn: bike - pink floyd.
	🧩 4:58pm tim from champaign: Hold up! kirk from beer city usa? You're cat looks like he should be named after a dictator. Anyway, the Breaking Away theme was not on my list. Thanks for the tip. PS Are you going to UFO Dictator this year? I'm DJing Saturday night.
	4:59pm Cecile: oh! And music from the Triplets of Belleville. That movie is all about cycling.
	5:00pm glenn: well, and triplets.
	5:00pm Carmichael: The soundtrack to The Bicycle Thief.
	5:02pm glenn: tour de france - kraftwerk.
	5:03pm Chris from DC: Leyland Kirby
	🧩 5:03pm tim from champaign: Oh yeah, more good suggestions! Thanks.
	5:03pm glenn: bicycle race - queen.
	5:03pm kirk from beer city usa: tim - if I attend UFO dictator night #2, I can see you and PK! not bad
	5:03pm northguineahills: Caretaker is V/VM aka James Kirby.
	5:04pm glenn: www.theguardian.com...
	🧩 5:07pm tim from champaign: @glenn - That's the jackpot! Thanks man! @kirk - PK's going to be around? Sweet! That'd be cool to see you and Mrs Beer City USA. I should be up to beer city to see my folks sometime in October. I'll keep you posted.
	5:09pm northguineahills: Leyland Kirby is just another alias. Elodie Lauten played a nice set at Share, o.blaat's shindig in 2006. (If memory serves).
	5:13pm Chris from DC: Ah, thianks NGH. Only ever known him as Leyland.
	5:15pm Carmichael: OK, now this is mind bending. Clicky Star for the Greek Guy!
	5:30pm Carmichael: Swamp Dogg has always been this cool.
	🧩 5:30pm tim from champaign: I think there's a lesson to be learned from this song.
	5:31pm northguineahills: I think he goes by Leyland, but his birth name is James.
	5:32pm Carmichael: One of his finest songs. Also, I Aint Sellin Out, I'm Buyin In is a thing of wonder.
	5:33pm BZ: Black Pearl, yes! Takes me back to when I first started listening to this great show.
	5:34pm msInfo: Oh, yeah, Tim? What would that lesson be?
	5:35pm Scott Williams: thanks BZ! is this my old pal BZ?
	5:40pm BZ: If that pal's name is really Greg, then yes. And we are pals. (But I know there are people who have those initials.)
	5:41pm Cecile: I LOVE THIS DANG OL'SONG!
	5:41pm Scott Williams: different BZ! I very much like several Gregs tho, so if you're one of them, yer solid
	🧩 5:43pm Matt from Springfield: Woooo! You set the summer sun on fire with this Heatwave, Scott! Smooooooth jam.
	🧩 5:43pm tim from champaign: @msInfo - don't leave ol' girl home alone when Swamp Dogg is sniffin' around.
	5:43pm Scott Williams: the smoothest! love heatwave so much, they even led me to daft punk!
	5:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yeah - 'Bike' - last song on Floyd's 1st 'Piper @ Gates of Dawn' - which album must be mentioned every week ...after which 'Bike Ride to the Moon' must be partly fashioned (~Dukes Forever!!~)...
	5:44pm Cecile: @tim, yeah that's an episode of Deadly Affairs waiting to happen. Scott, I call this their Rotary Connection song. It's so cool.
	5:44pm Cecile: YES!!!!!!
	🧩 5:45pm Matt from Springfield: Heatwave -> Daft Punk, I can see/(hear) that! SEE!!
	5:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I see - I see...one day I will wake up, pay my Comcast bill - & FMU will have gone all Disco ...I know...I know...
	5:45pm Cecile: roller disco song par excellence
	5:46pm northguineahills: I love the gif of Nick Offerman dancing to this daft punk song.
	5:47pm Jeff: Ha! You got sucked into the mainstream for a song! (and have the courage to just stand up and own it)
	5:47pm Cecile: What I like about this song is that it's like CHic - standard rock band instrumentation but a completely diff result.
	🧩 5:47pm Matt from Springfield: Hoverboard disco song, even. Why can't our recreation technology catch up with the quality of dance music? @RRN63: Sesame Street went all disco briefly in '79. Interesting YT clips of those moments.
	5:48pm efd: @RRN63 if that's your fear then I advise you not to tune in to my show on Aug. 28th.
	5:48pm Cecile: I miss a halfway decent song being a lightning rod for everyone. You know like Atomic Dog. Or Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground)
	5:48pm northguineahills: www.youtube.com...
	5:48pm Cecile: efd, disco mania? hope hope hope
	5:49pm efd: @Cecile, indeed.
	5:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: efd: No - that'll be the fun of it! See if you can make me ☆ Disco trax !...
	5:50pm Scott Williams: can't wait, Evan
	5:50pm Cecile: I like the tougher disco, funkier stuff. A lot of the Salsoul stuff leaves me cold. But my DNA contains huge parts of Chic, War, Isley Bros, etc.
	5:50pm Cecile: Although I have an unnatural fondness for Silver Convention.
	5:51pm northguineahills: efd, PLEASE remind me of your Aug 28th show!
	🧩 5:51pm Rev. Turnip Druid: SILVER CONVENTION!
	🧩 5:52pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Cecile: GET UP AND BOOGIE sealed their place in Valhalla for all time.
	5:52pm northguineahills: (Your show doesn't normally fall on my normal WFMU listening opportunities, I normally catch you during your archives).
	5:52pm Cecile: THAT'S RIGHT!
	5:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...plenty of good Soul ~ Funk w/ a DanceyBeat...if ya Pick&Choose ...it was just a lotta years of other stuff to live thru if (like me) ya weren't in the City w/ camp gays & minorities & suchlike who really were on the edge...
	5:54pm Cecile: Oh, I understand. There was so much good funk out there, and where I lived, all we heard was the BeeGees and suchlike.
	5:54pm northguineahills: Thanks Scott. Superawesome set!
	5:55pm Cecile: EFD, do you have Peter Brown's Do Ya Wanna Get Funky with Me? That is a barnburner.
	5:55pm Cecile: Feeling this Kode 9 bigtime.
	🧩 5:57pm Matt from Springfield: I think I deduced my prob listening live @work--I'm thinking they just don't allocate enough bandwidth for web streaming. YT plays, Archive Pop-Up (64k) plays, live Pop-Up (128k) doesn't. Unless we get a 32k Pop-Up, or I keep emailing fragments of programs to my work box in hopes of getting the 32k pls. Anyways, I might be back on live this week (fingers crossed!)
	5:57pm efd: @Cecile, your request has been noted! @NGH, I'll try to remember to give you a shout when I see you on the comments that week. Great show, Scott! A pleasure as always.
	5:57pm Scott Williams: thanks errybody! this was fun, see you next week...
	🧩 5:58pm Matt from Springfield: And fortunately, I will be @home for EFD's disco night--look forward to some great grooves and hooks!
	5:59pm Cecile: great show, Scott!
	🧩 5:59pm Matt from Springfield: Thanks Scott! What an amazing second part of the show, and the first part I need to catch! Have a good evening everyone!
	6:00pm Carmichael: I'm reading the Swamp Dogg bio in Spin magazine online. It's the funniest thing ever.
