WFMU: World of Echo with Dave Mandl: Playlist from February 2, 2014

Listener comments!
	10:01pm 12539: Heigh ho!
	10:01pm Dave Mandl: Evening, friends and neighbors.
	10:03pm Droll: [Seeking an exception for certain over-zealous celebrating neighbors, tonight only]
	10:03pm P-90: (migrating) Evening, Dave M.
	10:03pm Dave Mandl: Hey, @12539, @Droll.
	10:03pm Dave Mandl: ...and @P-90.
	10:04pm Dave Mandl: How was the big game?
	10:04pm LovecraftDude888: more like Peyton Boying ah well...no Denver Omelettes for y'all
	10:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: Game was a blow-out. Not close at all.
	10:04pm pacific standard simon: It's fireworks a-go-go on Bainbridge tonight!
	10:05pm P-90: You mean D. Blumin trading bon mots with Reinaldo L?
	10:05pm Droll: Taxpayers subsidized the whole thing, a few T-shirts were sold. It ain't like the good ol' days when they'd riot and flip busses and cop cars.
	10:06pm P-90: Oh, the S-Bowl. Kind of a letdown, there've been some fun games in recent years, not this one, sadly
	10:07pm pacific standard simon: My decorator is happy to be done with making Seahawks cookies.
	10:08pm fleep: That safety at the very beginning kind of rocked the Bronco's world, they never recovered.
	10:08pm LovecraftDude888: I didn't even switch my set on. Not much interest and now I'm kinda glad....how was half time show though? The prev. two shows and reading about Nietzsche were more intriguing
	10:08pm JakeGould: You know why the Broncos lost? They sucked. That‘s why.
	10:09pm LovecraftDude888: The Bronchials.
	10:09pm P-90: @fleep: those things do happen, but I don't think the Broncos had much of a chance either way; clearly outgunned as it turned out
	10:10pm pacific standard simon: I got off work during halftime and never gained control of the remote -- spent more time watching Puppybowl.
	10:11pm P-90: Your dog wouldn't let you near that remote, huh?
	10:11pm pacific standard simon: Damn right!
	10:12pm LovecraftDude888: I kept hoping for HumongousBowl but not this year. Kitten Bowl....Cichlid Bowl etc.
	10:13pm LovecraftDude888: now supposed to get more snow tomorrow in NYC...oof. ...serious aside...how come the movie Lolita (1997) wasn't banned? I'm so confused.....i thought the USA was more scared of pedos than guns and violence
	10:14pm LovecraftDude888: has anybody watched that nonsense?
	10:15pm P-90: @LcD888: Flick was carefully crafted by Nabokov and Kubrick to conform to prevailing standards
	10:16pm LovecraftDude888: i saw it at the library and was wondering about it....P-90...I see, but i mean, given the subject matter>??
	10:16pm P-90: OK, the 1997 Adrian Lyne version? Wasn't too bad actually...
	10:16pm LovecraftDude888: boy is this a weird society...but we knew that
	10:17pm LovecraftDude888: yeah yeah the Lyne film.
	10:17pm Lonely Planet Boy: Kinda hard to ban a movie when book it is based on has been sold for 30+ (?) yrs.
	10:18pm P-90: ...and is considered a literary classic
	10:18pm LovecraftDude888: LPB..Right, true. It was just striking me though how it's such a hot button issue hysteria these days, and those works nobody seems to bat an eye
	10:18pm Droll: . o O ( Superbowl Music <-> Meatloaf )
	10:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - also - for a Kubrick - seems like it's not distributed much: I never seen it around...
	10:19pm LovecraftDude888: but if you go for a 14 yr. old gf you will be incarcerated!
	10:20pm LovecraftDude888: RR: my library has two copies of the Kubrick!! haha! so we know how popular THAT film is...
	10:21pm P-90: I liked the visual design, a large portion of the book is a road trip through postwar America. They found all the right kinds of N. Rockwell-esque locations, and real US countryside. That stuff was noticeably absent from the Kubrick, filmed in England...
	10:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I guess I've seen the graphic w/ the heart-shaped glasses often enuff - but that's it...
	10:22pm pacific standard simon: Then again, the book didn't have Peter Sellers.
	10:23pm pacific standard simon: "Fascinating people"... that's tactful of you, Dave M.
	10:23pm LovecraftDude888: I just laugh cause those works get a pass, (ok they're not porno) but like, films like The Killer Inside Me (new one) are so ultraviolent it's beyond belief...but nobody minds the violent films of that kind...seemingly. i'm just saying this is a weird feckin nation
	10:23pm P-90: ...and Frank Langella, and Melanie Griffith well-cast actually.. Also: they got something right because I wasn't turned on by that 12-year-old, I was terrified of her...
	10:25pm LovecraftDude888: I guess that was the point for sure....but I couldn't get through 5 min. of Hard Candy which I thought was an utter load of shite...violence/torture is not the answer.
	10:25pm Dave Mandl: @pss: You know it's true.
	10:26pm P-90: @Dave Mandl: why thank you, you're kind of fascinatin' yourself
	10:26pm Dave Mandl: Yeah, right.
	10:26pm Droll: George was always the one who couldn't fake the American accent. I love this tempo!
	10:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - for starters - I love having the urban myth that The Beatles sucked Live shot down - as in the earliest days they were a very hard-working club band...
	10:27pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: It's really a lovely version. George is also very animated.
	10:27pm P-90: Uh-oh, "-for starters-"
	10:29pm pacific standard simon: There was a bit on 60 Minutes tonight about the Ed Sullivan staffer who subbed for George during the Saturday rehearsal because George had a 102 fever.
	10:30pm Dave Mandl: Wow, I never knew that.
	10:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: John was reportedly influenced by a Disney tune on that (Jiminy Cricket?) - as he was by West Side Story for 'There's a Place' - & reportedly George's glib remark about the tune in an autobio (??) offended John & came between them- ??...
	10:30pm LovecraftDude888: just take the elephant tranquilizers like Roger Waters and you're fine!
	10:30pm LovecraftDude888: comfortably glum
	10:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yeah - some of those Photos in NYC there's only Threetles...
	10:31pm P-90: Actually, Gaylord said something about the paucity of film footage of the "excellent performing band they must have been" in those days, trying too remember when/where it came up.. made Todd's fill in for Terre T two Sats ago?
	10:32pm P-90: --"maybe Todd's fill in..."
	10:33pm LovecraftDude888: so what's the next silly big event on horizon...Oscars?
	10:33pm P-90: @pss: did they interview the Actual Dude who subbed for George?
	10:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yeah P-90: 1st known footage 'Some Other Guy' in the Cavern - I think the very day Ringo joined or close to it - all those 100s of dates in Hamburg & Liverpool that Mark Lewisohn documents - nothing! - altho' on that fill-in I think Gaylord might've said something else surfaced - which would be big news... - You can see that 'S.O.G. footage @ the beginning of 'How the Beatles Rocked the Kremlin' (on YT) - a great film! - by the guy that shot it...
	10:35pm Dave Mandl: I've got a great photo of McCartney during that period that I'm trying to find right now...
	10:35pm LovecraftDude888: www.abebooks.com...
	10:36pm pacific standard simon: Yeah, they did. He's 79, now. He said that no one, including him, thought the Beatles would still be around in a year. When Sullivan heard that George was ill, he said he'd put on a Beatle wig and do the show himself.
	10:36pm LovecraftDude888: Dreads and Drolls....
	10:39pm LovecraftDude888: there used to be some awful Discotheque on LI called Decamerons...glad I was too young for it....
	10:40pm Dave Mandl: Can't find that McCartney photo. It was him rocking out on stage in the early days. Sorry.
	10:41pm P-90: @Rev: Gaylord was speaking of the 63-64 period, from which the (almost) only footage is of huge arena shows w/screaming fans, inadequate PA reinforcement etc....his point was the "excellent performing band" was neutralized by those circumstances, when the cameras and audio tape were rolling. So there.
	10:42pm LovecraftDude888: get out that leisure suit. I gotta go to bed my head hurtz...night all! catch you tomorrow for more mayhem
	10:43pm pacific standard simon: I've already seen McCartney once, this evening... in a box, at... THE SUPERBOWL!
	10:44pm P-90: Paulie still makin' the scene...
	10:45pm P-90: awwwww,,,,not ANOTHER snowstorm
	10:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - it's interesting the extent to which The Beatles were adversely impacted by their own - still incomprehensible - success...certainly when Epstein died, they weren't able to keep up managerially...
	10:45pm pacific standard simon: So all you Jersey-ites are so close to Macca you could almost reach out and touch him.
	10:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...love how in 'Beatles Anthology' you see Ringo openly scowling by '66 about the shortcomings of their Live scene...
	10:47pm P-90: @Rev: The physical infrastructure for presenting little electric combos to big, big audiences simply was not in place, it really worked against them. They all say it discouraged them, it turned shows into a joke, the studio just seemed more comfortable and relevant after that
	10:49pm earrie: d'oiseaux -- birds The 's' in there sounds like a 'z' --- 'dwah-zoh'
	10:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - you still get crap sound @ shows in 2014 !...
	10:49pm Droll: Why? Is the Sea? So blue. Why is the the sea? So blue. Why is the the sea so blue? Why is the the sea so blue -- Four different songs, man!
	10:51pm Dave Mandl: @earrie: Yeah, I know, I know.
	10:52pm colette: Dear Sir, 'Why is the sky so blue' is not a question. Try listening to it as a statement, 'why' as a declarative. Try it. It is satisfying. Great show. Thanks, C
	10:53pm earrie: Ah, ok. Good listening all the same.
	10:53pm P-90: @pss: '...Mersey-ites so close to Mecca"? haha -don't mind me, I'm sleep-deprived and getting punchy
	10:53pm 12539: Isn't that Sigmund Freud on the cover? heresyrecords.com...
	10:54pm P-90: @125etc.: absolutely
	10:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - I love Nick Drake as a Guitarist - for one thing...
	10:56pm Droll: The back of that album cover reminds me of a role-reversed f0.bcbits.com...
	10:57pm pacific standard simon: There's nothing to not like about Nick, except for his attitude about himself.
	10:57pm Carmichael: Hi Dave and thanks for Nick Drake. Just reading the John Martyn bio now, and lots of Drake talk.
	10:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - xactly pss.
	10:58pm Dave Mandl: @colette: I can't do it! Too bogged down by a lifetime of questions marks.
	10:59pm Dave Mandl: Funny, but I couldn't see Freud on that CD cover. On our copy of the CD there's a sticker directly covering his face.
	11:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I feel like a dilettante for not knowing which flick the spider is from...
	11:00pm P-90: @pss: re: Nick: got that right
	11:00pm Dave Mandl: @earrie: I know French pretty well, but for some reason I always pronounce that word with an "s" rather than a "z". Had another listener correct me on the exact thing a year or two ago.
	11:01pm Droll: XHD!??!?!?! It's been at least 5 years!
	11:03pm Dave Mandl: Old habits are sometimes hard to shake. I've said "WXHD" thousands of times.
	11:04pm Dave Mandl: ...My mother still refers to me as "the new baby."
	11:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'Tarantula' perhaps...
	11:04pm pacific standard simon: I would love to still have Nick with us, in his mid-60s, still making music as an "elder statesman". I guess some dreams are just a bit too much to wish for.
	11:05pm Droll: Muscle memory legal ID. My mom refers to me as "a piece of work". I know how it goes on both fronts.
	11:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - a very nice example of a flute piece well-played...
	11:06pm Carmichael: Drake's issues made his music, his music fueled his issues, why is the sky so blue ...
	11:07pm P-90: @RevRabRe: Beatles live in '64, Gaylord on T-o-p T. 1/25: Shea Stadium version of I'm Down even surpasses the record, with fantastic elbow keyboard playing by J.W. Lennon. It's a rare glimpse iof the top-tier live band they must have been back in the days when they could actually hear themselves onstage.
	11:07pm pacific standard simon: Edgard Varese...
	11:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - are you a BirthOrderBaby Dave - ?? I'm the International PosterChild for it...
	11:09pm Dave Mandl: @RRN63: I'm the fourth of five. I've never thought about it much.
	11:10pm pacific standard simon: Very much appreciate the range of musical ages on this show.
	11:10pm P-90: @Rab: are you "The Baby" of the family? How many sibs?
	11:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: P-90: & also an example of what I'm talking about: Shea was the 1st arena-sized Rock Gig I believe: the others say they thot Lennon actually went a bit mad @ it...
	11:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm the Youngest of five.
	11:11pm pacific standard simon: I'm an eldest, by the way, which is probably why I won't fucking shut up.
	11:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - & why you take care of biz.
	11:12pm Dave Mandl: The only people who have five kids today (at least in NYC) are rich Wall St. people. My wife is one of six.
	11:12pm P-90: @pss: ok, me too, I'll cop to it
	11:12pm earrie: Maybe you've been to Oisseau or Oisseau-le-Petit? And/or tomato tomato as it were, whatevers and etc.
	11:12pm Carmichael: Im #5 of 6. Also haven't considered the effcts.
	11:12pm Dave Mandl: (Not from a rich Wall St. family, of course.)
	11:14pm pacific standard simon: Mom was a 5th of 6 -- made her a loose cannon, I guess.
	11:15pm Carmichael: @pss: thats me all over.
	11:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - my favorite Bob album - 'Bringing It All Back Home' - which no one ever picks somehow...'Blonde on Blonde' close 2nd...
	11:19pm P-90: @Rev: read it again one more time, you're making the same mistake Elliot Simon made in reply to Gaylord's comment: yes, that Shea show is THE poster child for shows where they were drowned out and discouraged, but FROM "I'm Down", the performance and especially John's energy and antics, one can INFER what the early live shows were like, see? Read it again, Gaylord is always VERY precise on this Mop-topic
	11:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - not gainsaying that.
	11:21pm P-90: OK. "Mop-top-ic", get it?
	11:21pm Fuzzy: Oldest of three checking in late...hola!
	11:22pm pacific standard simon: There's a case to be made for Bob Dylan as a great Tin Pan Alley songwriter who never was.
	11:23pm P-90: @Fuzzy: welcome, Sir, from eldest of four
	11:23pm pacific standard simon: Like Roger Miller, he had to do these things himself to prove that others could, too.
	11:24pm P-90: pss: or as a great Tin Pan Alley songwriter who carried that into a new cultural period
	11:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...how small a box 'THE BEATLES' was - was ultimately as much a reason they broke up as anything; John waxed nostalgic about the freedom they had before UberFamous & all that... - Dylan like some great dual-natured god Mercury @ the center of Time or something: on one hand representing the entire Folk tradition before him - & on the other the entire Independent Songwriter field after him...
	11:26pm Fuzzy: @P90: Howdy! Now I'm wondering if "eldest" is more correct than "oldest"...
	11:27pm P-90: @Fuzz: either is good
	11:27pm Andrew Waterloo: Enjoying your show tonight Dave
	11:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...then again - it's surprising how much Woody Guthrie had already done a lot we tend to associate w/ Dylan - even the put-on down-home Okie personality ...as Buddy Holly had w/ The Beatles...&tc. ...
	11:29pm Dave Mandl: @Andrew: Thanks! And hello to all the people I haven't said hi to yet. Sorry, tough keeping on top of everything.
	11:29pm P-90: @pss: a little lost again, you guys make my head spin... Who is like Roger Miller? Was the King of the Road a middle child? wha...?
	11:29pm Droll: There are dozens of bands which are "underdocumented" -- vanishingly little early Steely Dan footage exists.
	11:30pm pacific standard simon: Not THIS Roger Miller!
	11:30pm Fuzzy: Which Roger Miller? King Of The Road or Mission of Burma?
	11:31pm Fuzzy: ...he posted without looking at the playlist...
	11:31pm Dave Mandl: en.wikipedia.org...
	11:31pm pacific standard simon: And, for that matter, which Don Cherry?
	11:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - true Droll. Just that the FabFour are rather huge - & this whole Period hardly recorded - & the later stuff kinda hyper-recorded...but yeah...
	11:33pm pacific standard simon: Always welcome, Dave.
	11:34pm pacific standard simon: Wonder what the beginning of "Tribute To Jack Johnson" would sound like right after Slade?
	11:35pm phat: You know what? This song is fantastic. Thank you for the Slade.
	11:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - not nearly enuff Live best-period Wh♂ footage...
	11:36pm Droll: Slade... that explains all the winds for the first 2/3rds of the show. 2% RnR: Check.
	11:36pm pacific standard simon: 2% Revolution 'n' Rabbit?
	11:36pm Dave Mandl: @phat: My pleasure.
	11:37pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: I'd gladly do 40% Slade.
	11:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @pss: you wish that little.
	11:38pm P-90: ...but in a two-hour slot, doesn't that guarantee become "less than 3% RnR", if it's the same quantity of RnR? Just wonderin'
	11:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...don't eat animals - but I prefer half&half to 2% or such actually: gotta get my trans-fats somewhere...
	11:40pm Droll: I'd like to hear an all Slade set. I didn't figure you for a Slade guy... Maybe it was all the Mellotron.
	11:41pm P-90: You should consider actually doing a "40% Slade" Special Edition, you could include a little phone interview w/whoever might still be alive
	11:42pm pacific standard simon: I'm holding out for the return of the three-hour slot -- or, rather, KICKING IN during the Marathon.
	11:42pm Droll: Apparently 2007-05-23 is the day the world became more urban than rural: www.sciencedaily.com...
	11:43pm Droll: What's this about a bass guitar chord that doesn't make sense?! I must know the forbidden bass part!
	11:44pm pacific standard simon: That's one of the things I like about Quicksilver Messenger Service -- nutty bass chords.
	11:44pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: Utterly dissonant bass chord.
	11:45pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: Not a root note, anyway. (Sorry, non-bassists.)
	11:45pm P-90: @Droll: "...didn't figure you for a Slade guy..." HAHAHA
	11:47pm pacific standard simon: Dave -- did you see the Dark Shadows movie with the fake Alice Cooper band? Pretty damn good, as I recall.
	11:48pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: I bet they used Mellotron somewhere. Everyone did.
	11:48pm Dave Mandl: @pss: No, I didn't!
	11:48pm pacific standard simon: Kemialliset Ystävät would have made John Lennon ______________.
	11:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I wonder if Slade shared any bills w/ Humble Pie...just blue-skying here...I think there is one Bill that The Wh♂ & Zep shared...
	11:51pm pacific standard simon: The one time I ever saw The Who was also the only time I saw The Grateful Dead. A Day On The Green in Oakland.
	11:51pm Droll: 2% Rock n Roll, 40% Slade, 33% Mellotron, 25% bass chords that don't make sense -- it's Dave Mandl's New World of Echo!
	11:51pm Dave Mandl: @RRN63: Slade and Humble Pie would have been the rockingest bill ever.
	11:52pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: Sounds about right.
	11:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& imagine if Lennon were still around in NYC to say 'Howdy' @ FMU...
	11:53pm Andrew Waterloo: Slade is just one of those things
	11:53pm P-90: I've heard of this fabled Day on the Green Did Dr. Leary make a gubernatorial campaign speech there?
	11:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - oh pss - don't make me hate you now : great poster for that w/ an Owl on a Skull...
	11:54pm P-90: @Droll: or: "Dave Mandl's BRAVE New World of Echo"
	11:55pm Dave Mandl: "So you think my singing's out of tune? Well, it makes me money" (Slade). How great is that?
	11:55pm Paul McCartney: Hello. I'm Paul, and I'd just like to say "WFMU rocks my world when I'm in New Jersey attending sporting events. Now pass the bloody reefer, mate."
	11:56pm Dave Mandl: Or "out of time"?
	11:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - ha P-90 !: 'They're free to listen to FreeJazz & Prog - but why would they!'...
	11:57pm P-90: @Sir Paul: Where's your hair??!
	11:57pm 12539: Thanks, Dave M. Good luck catching your train.
	11:57pm Droll: Time's up already... When you get the other hour back there'll be more time for the Weekly Math Quiz and this forbidden bass chord thing... You know, the important stuff.
	11:58pm Paul McCartney: On the hat rack, you swine!
	11:58pm fleep: Thanks, Dave!
	11:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - John & Paul spontaneously together on FMU - like they almost did on SaturdayNightLive...
	11:58pm Fuzzy: Will have to check in (wake up) earlier next time to catch more of the show -- good one!
	12:00am P-90: Thanks, Dave M! I'll bring a bass chord root note in next week for show and tell!
	12:01am Dave Mandl: Thanks, everyone! Have a great week.
	11:26pm Droll: Out of the blue, "Do you want...?" suddenly came to mind and I needed to hear the lads knock one off like it was nothing... Ridiculously tight band. This ditty is under 2 minutes! It's like a damned candy bar! Only the best parts, just the right amount of crunch, and so sweet your teeth hurt. So, are you gonna do 40% Slade? I'll listen.
	4:59pm maltempinulla: Finally caught up to last weeks show.... a fine one

Listener comments!
	10:01pm 12539: Heigh ho!
	10:01pm Dave Mandl: Evening, friends and neighbors.
	10:03pm Droll: [Seeking an exception for certain over-zealous celebrating neighbors, tonight only]
	10:03pm P-90: (migrating) Evening, Dave M.
	10:03pm Dave Mandl: Hey, @12539, @Droll.
	10:03pm Dave Mandl: ...and @P-90.
	10:04pm Dave Mandl: How was the big game?
	10:04pm LovecraftDude888: more like Peyton Boying ah well...no Denver Omelettes for y'all
	10:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: Game was a blow-out. Not close at all.
	10:04pm pacific standard simon: It's fireworks a-go-go on Bainbridge tonight!
	10:05pm P-90: You mean D. Blumin trading bon mots with Reinaldo L?
	10:05pm Droll: Taxpayers subsidized the whole thing, a few T-shirts were sold. It ain't like the good ol' days when they'd riot and flip busses and cop cars.
	10:06pm P-90: Oh, the S-Bowl. Kind of a letdown, there've been some fun games in recent years, not this one, sadly
	10:07pm pacific standard simon: My decorator is happy to be done with making Seahawks cookies.
	10:08pm fleep: That safety at the very beginning kind of rocked the Bronco's world, they never recovered.
	10:08pm LovecraftDude888: I didn't even switch my set on. Not much interest and now I'm kinda glad....how was half time show though? The prev. two shows and reading about Nietzsche were more intriguing
	10:08pm JakeGould: You know why the Broncos lost? They sucked. That‘s why.
	10:09pm LovecraftDude888: The Bronchials.
	10:09pm P-90: @fleep: those things do happen, but I don't think the Broncos had much of a chance either way; clearly outgunned as it turned out
	10:10pm pacific standard simon: I got off work during halftime and never gained control of the remote -- spent more time watching Puppybowl.
	10:11pm P-90: Your dog wouldn't let you near that remote, huh?
	10:11pm pacific standard simon: Damn right!
	10:12pm LovecraftDude888: I kept hoping for HumongousBowl but not this year. Kitten Bowl....Cichlid Bowl etc.
	10:13pm LovecraftDude888: now supposed to get more snow tomorrow in NYC...oof. ...serious aside...how come the movie Lolita (1997) wasn't banned? I'm so confused.....i thought the USA was more scared of pedos than guns and violence
	10:14pm LovecraftDude888: has anybody watched that nonsense?
	10:15pm P-90: @LcD888: Flick was carefully crafted by Nabokov and Kubrick to conform to prevailing standards
	10:16pm LovecraftDude888: i saw it at the library and was wondering about it....P-90...I see, but i mean, given the subject matter>??
	10:16pm P-90: OK, the 1997 Adrian Lyne version? Wasn't too bad actually...
	10:16pm LovecraftDude888: boy is this a weird society...but we knew that
	10:17pm LovecraftDude888: yeah yeah the Lyne film.
	10:17pm Lonely Planet Boy: Kinda hard to ban a movie when book it is based on has been sold for 30+ (?) yrs.
	10:18pm P-90: ...and is considered a literary classic
	10:18pm LovecraftDude888: LPB..Right, true. It was just striking me though how it's such a hot button issue hysteria these days, and those works nobody seems to bat an eye
	10:18pm Droll: . o O ( Superbowl Music <-> Meatloaf )
	10:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - also - for a Kubrick - seems like it's not distributed much: I never seen it around...
	10:19pm LovecraftDude888: but if you go for a 14 yr. old gf you will be incarcerated!
	10:20pm LovecraftDude888: RR: my library has two copies of the Kubrick!! haha! so we know how popular THAT film is...
	10:21pm P-90: I liked the visual design, a large portion of the book is a road trip through postwar America. They found all the right kinds of N. Rockwell-esque locations, and real US countryside. That stuff was noticeably absent from the Kubrick, filmed in England...
	10:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I guess I've seen the graphic w/ the heart-shaped glasses often enuff - but that's it...
	10:22pm pacific standard simon: Then again, the book didn't have Peter Sellers.
	10:23pm pacific standard simon: "Fascinating people"... that's tactful of you, Dave M.
	10:23pm LovecraftDude888: I just laugh cause those works get a pass, (ok they're not porno) but like, films like The Killer Inside Me (new one) are so ultraviolent it's beyond belief...but nobody minds the violent films of that kind...seemingly. i'm just saying this is a weird feckin nation
	10:23pm P-90: ...and Frank Langella, and Melanie Griffith well-cast actually.. Also: they got something right because I wasn't turned on by that 12-year-old, I was terrified of her...
	10:25pm LovecraftDude888: I guess that was the point for sure....but I couldn't get through 5 min. of Hard Candy which I thought was an utter load of shite...violence/torture is not the answer.
	10:25pm Dave Mandl: @pss: You know it's true.
	10:26pm P-90: @Dave Mandl: why thank you, you're kind of fascinatin' yourself
	10:26pm Dave Mandl: Yeah, right.
	10:26pm Droll: George was always the one who couldn't fake the American accent. I love this tempo!
	10:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - for starters - I love having the urban myth that The Beatles sucked Live shot down - as in the earliest days they were a very hard-working club band...
	10:27pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: It's really a lovely version. George is also very animated.
	10:27pm P-90: Uh-oh, "-for starters-"
	10:29pm pacific standard simon: There was a bit on 60 Minutes tonight about the Ed Sullivan staffer who subbed for George during the Saturday rehearsal because George had a 102 fever.
	10:30pm Dave Mandl: Wow, I never knew that.
	10:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: John was reportedly influenced by a Disney tune on that (Jiminy Cricket?) - as he was by West Side Story for 'There's a Place' - & reportedly George's glib remark about the tune in an autobio (??) offended John & came between them- ??...
	10:30pm LovecraftDude888: just take the elephant tranquilizers like Roger Waters and you're fine!
	10:30pm LovecraftDude888: comfortably glum
	10:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yeah - some of those Photos in NYC there's only Threetles...
	10:31pm P-90: Actually, Gaylord said something about the paucity of film footage of the "excellent performing band they must have been" in those days, trying too remember when/where it came up.. made Todd's fill in for Terre T two Sats ago?
	10:32pm P-90: --"maybe Todd's fill in..."
	10:33pm LovecraftDude888: so what's the next silly big event on horizon...Oscars?
	10:33pm P-90: @pss: did they interview the Actual Dude who subbed for George?
	10:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yeah P-90: 1st known footage 'Some Other Guy' in the Cavern - I think the very day Ringo joined or close to it - all those 100s of dates in Hamburg & Liverpool that Mark Lewisohn documents - nothing! - altho' on that fill-in I think Gaylord might've said something else surfaced - which would be big news... - You can see that 'S.O.G. footage @ the beginning of 'How the Beatles Rocked the Kremlin' (on YT) - a great film! - by the guy that shot it...
	10:35pm Dave Mandl: I've got a great photo of McCartney during that period that I'm trying to find right now...
	10:35pm LovecraftDude888: www.abebooks.com...
	10:36pm pacific standard simon: Yeah, they did. He's 79, now. He said that no one, including him, thought the Beatles would still be around in a year. When Sullivan heard that George was ill, he said he'd put on a Beatle wig and do the show himself.
	10:36pm LovecraftDude888: Dreads and Drolls....
	10:39pm LovecraftDude888: there used to be some awful Discotheque on LI called Decamerons...glad I was too young for it....
	10:40pm Dave Mandl: Can't find that McCartney photo. It was him rocking out on stage in the early days. Sorry.
	10:41pm P-90: @Rev: Gaylord was speaking of the 63-64 period, from which the (almost) only footage is of huge arena shows w/screaming fans, inadequate PA reinforcement etc....his point was the "excellent performing band" was neutralized by those circumstances, when the cameras and audio tape were rolling. So there.
	10:42pm LovecraftDude888: get out that leisure suit. I gotta go to bed my head hurtz...night all! catch you tomorrow for more mayhem
	10:43pm pacific standard simon: I've already seen McCartney once, this evening... in a box, at... THE SUPERBOWL!
	10:44pm P-90: Paulie still makin' the scene...
	10:45pm P-90: awwwww,,,,not ANOTHER snowstorm
	10:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - it's interesting the extent to which The Beatles were adversely impacted by their own - still incomprehensible - success...certainly when Epstein died, they weren't able to keep up managerially...
	10:45pm pacific standard simon: So all you Jersey-ites are so close to Macca you could almost reach out and touch him.
	10:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...love how in 'Beatles Anthology' you see Ringo openly scowling by '66 about the shortcomings of their Live scene...
	10:47pm P-90: @Rev: The physical infrastructure for presenting little electric combos to big, big audiences simply was not in place, it really worked against them. They all say it discouraged them, it turned shows into a joke, the studio just seemed more comfortable and relevant after that
	10:49pm earrie: d'oiseaux -- birds The 's' in there sounds like a 'z' --- 'dwah-zoh'
	10:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - you still get crap sound @ shows in 2014 !...
	10:49pm Droll: Why? Is the Sea? So blue. Why is the the sea? So blue. Why is the the sea so blue? Why is the the sea so blue -- Four different songs, man!
	10:51pm Dave Mandl: @earrie: Yeah, I know, I know.
	10:52pm colette: Dear Sir, 'Why is the sky so blue' is not a question. Try listening to it as a statement, 'why' as a declarative. Try it. It is satisfying. Great show. Thanks, C
	10:53pm earrie: Ah, ok. Good listening all the same.
	10:53pm P-90: @pss: '...Mersey-ites so close to Mecca"? haha -don't mind me, I'm sleep-deprived and getting punchy
	10:53pm 12539: Isn't that Sigmund Freud on the cover? heresyrecords.com...
	10:54pm P-90: @125etc.: absolutely
	10:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - I love Nick Drake as a Guitarist - for one thing...
	10:56pm Droll: The back of that album cover reminds me of a role-reversed f0.bcbits.com...
	10:57pm pacific standard simon: There's nothing to not like about Nick, except for his attitude about himself.
	10:57pm Carmichael: Hi Dave and thanks for Nick Drake. Just reading the John Martyn bio now, and lots of Drake talk.
	10:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - xactly pss.
	10:58pm Dave Mandl: @colette: I can't do it! Too bogged down by a lifetime of questions marks.
	10:59pm Dave Mandl: Funny, but I couldn't see Freud on that CD cover. On our copy of the CD there's a sticker directly covering his face.
	11:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I feel like a dilettante for not knowing which flick the spider is from...
	11:00pm P-90: @pss: re: Nick: got that right
	11:00pm Dave Mandl: @earrie: I know French pretty well, but for some reason I always pronounce that word with an "s" rather than a "z". Had another listener correct me on the exact thing a year or two ago.
	11:01pm Droll: XHD!??!?!?! It's been at least 5 years!
	11:03pm Dave Mandl: Old habits are sometimes hard to shake. I've said "WXHD" thousands of times.
	11:04pm Dave Mandl: ...My mother still refers to me as "the new baby."
	11:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'Tarantula' perhaps...
	11:04pm pacific standard simon: I would love to still have Nick with us, in his mid-60s, still making music as an "elder statesman". I guess some dreams are just a bit too much to wish for.
	11:05pm Droll: Muscle memory legal ID. My mom refers to me as "a piece of work". I know how it goes on both fronts.
	11:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - a very nice example of a flute piece well-played...
	11:06pm Carmichael: Drake's issues made his music, his music fueled his issues, why is the sky so blue ...
	11:07pm P-90: @RevRabRe: Beatles live in '64, Gaylord on T-o-p T. 1/25: Shea Stadium version of I'm Down even surpasses the record, with fantastic elbow keyboard playing by J.W. Lennon. It's a rare glimpse iof the top-tier live band they must have been back in the days when they could actually hear themselves onstage.
	11:07pm pacific standard simon: Edgard Varese...
	11:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - are you a BirthOrderBaby Dave - ?? I'm the International PosterChild for it...
	11:09pm Dave Mandl: @RRN63: I'm the fourth of five. I've never thought about it much.
	11:10pm pacific standard simon: Very much appreciate the range of musical ages on this show.
	11:10pm P-90: @Rab: are you "The Baby" of the family? How many sibs?
	11:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: P-90: & also an example of what I'm talking about: Shea was the 1st arena-sized Rock Gig I believe: the others say they thot Lennon actually went a bit mad @ it...
	11:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm the Youngest of five.
	11:11pm pacific standard simon: I'm an eldest, by the way, which is probably why I won't fucking shut up.
	11:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - & why you take care of biz.
	11:12pm Dave Mandl: The only people who have five kids today (at least in NYC) are rich Wall St. people. My wife is one of six.
	11:12pm P-90: @pss: ok, me too, I'll cop to it
	11:12pm earrie: Maybe you've been to Oisseau or Oisseau-le-Petit? And/or tomato tomato as it were, whatevers and etc.
	11:12pm Carmichael: Im #5 of 6. Also haven't considered the effcts.
	11:12pm Dave Mandl: (Not from a rich Wall St. family, of course.)
	11:14pm pacific standard simon: Mom was a 5th of 6 -- made her a loose cannon, I guess.
	11:15pm Carmichael: @pss: thats me all over.
	11:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - my favorite Bob album - 'Bringing It All Back Home' - which no one ever picks somehow...'Blonde on Blonde' close 2nd...
	11:19pm P-90: @Rev: read it again one more time, you're making the same mistake Elliot Simon made in reply to Gaylord's comment: yes, that Shea show is THE poster child for shows where they were drowned out and discouraged, but FROM "I'm Down", the performance and especially John's energy and antics, one can INFER what the early live shows were like, see? Read it again, Gaylord is always VERY precise on this Mop-topic
	11:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - not gainsaying that.
	11:21pm P-90: OK. "Mop-top-ic", get it?
	11:21pm Fuzzy: Oldest of three checking in late...hola!
	11:22pm pacific standard simon: There's a case to be made for Bob Dylan as a great Tin Pan Alley songwriter who never was.
	11:23pm P-90: @Fuzzy: welcome, Sir, from eldest of four
	11:23pm pacific standard simon: Like Roger Miller, he had to do these things himself to prove that others could, too.
	11:24pm P-90: pss: or as a great Tin Pan Alley songwriter who carried that into a new cultural period
	11:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...how small a box 'THE BEATLES' was - was ultimately as much a reason they broke up as anything; John waxed nostalgic about the freedom they had before UberFamous & all that... - Dylan like some great dual-natured god Mercury @ the center of Time or something: on one hand representing the entire Folk tradition before him - & on the other the entire Independent Songwriter field after him...
	11:26pm Fuzzy: @P90: Howdy! Now I'm wondering if "eldest" is more correct than "oldest"...
	11:27pm P-90: @Fuzz: either is good
	11:27pm Andrew Waterloo: Enjoying your show tonight Dave
	11:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...then again - it's surprising how much Woody Guthrie had already done a lot we tend to associate w/ Dylan - even the put-on down-home Okie personality ...as Buddy Holly had w/ The Beatles...&tc. ...
	11:29pm Dave Mandl: @Andrew: Thanks! And hello to all the people I haven't said hi to yet. Sorry, tough keeping on top of everything.
	11:29pm P-90: @pss: a little lost again, you guys make my head spin... Who is like Roger Miller? Was the King of the Road a middle child? wha...?
	11:29pm Droll: There are dozens of bands which are "underdocumented" -- vanishingly little early Steely Dan footage exists.
	11:30pm pacific standard simon: Not THIS Roger Miller!
	11:30pm Fuzzy: Which Roger Miller? King Of The Road or Mission of Burma?
	11:31pm Fuzzy: ...he posted without looking at the playlist...
	11:31pm Dave Mandl: en.wikipedia.org...
	11:31pm pacific standard simon: And, for that matter, which Don Cherry?
	11:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - true Droll. Just that the FabFour are rather huge - & this whole Period hardly recorded - & the later stuff kinda hyper-recorded...but yeah...
	11:33pm pacific standard simon: Always welcome, Dave.
	11:34pm pacific standard simon: Wonder what the beginning of "Tribute To Jack Johnson" would sound like right after Slade?
	11:35pm phat: You know what? This song is fantastic. Thank you for the Slade.
	11:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - not nearly enuff Live best-period Wh♂ footage...
	11:36pm Droll: Slade... that explains all the winds for the first 2/3rds of the show. 2% RnR: Check.
	11:36pm pacific standard simon: 2% Revolution 'n' Rabbit?
	11:36pm Dave Mandl: @phat: My pleasure.
	11:37pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: I'd gladly do 40% Slade.
	11:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @pss: you wish that little.
	11:38pm P-90: ...but in a two-hour slot, doesn't that guarantee become "less than 3% RnR", if it's the same quantity of RnR? Just wonderin'
	11:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...don't eat animals - but I prefer half&half to 2% or such actually: gotta get my trans-fats somewhere...
	11:40pm Droll: I'd like to hear an all Slade set. I didn't figure you for a Slade guy... Maybe it was all the Mellotron.
	11:41pm P-90: You should consider actually doing a "40% Slade" Special Edition, you could include a little phone interview w/whoever might still be alive
	11:42pm pacific standard simon: I'm holding out for the return of the three-hour slot -- or, rather, KICKING IN during the Marathon.
	11:42pm Droll: Apparently 2007-05-23 is the day the world became more urban than rural: www.sciencedaily.com...
	11:43pm Droll: What's this about a bass guitar chord that doesn't make sense?! I must know the forbidden bass part!
	11:44pm pacific standard simon: That's one of the things I like about Quicksilver Messenger Service -- nutty bass chords.
	11:44pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: Utterly dissonant bass chord.
	11:45pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: Not a root note, anyway. (Sorry, non-bassists.)
	11:45pm P-90: @Droll: "...didn't figure you for a Slade guy..." HAHAHA
	11:47pm pacific standard simon: Dave -- did you see the Dark Shadows movie with the fake Alice Cooper band? Pretty damn good, as I recall.
	11:48pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: I bet they used Mellotron somewhere. Everyone did.
	11:48pm Dave Mandl: @pss: No, I didn't!
	11:48pm pacific standard simon: Kemialliset Ystävät would have made John Lennon ______________.
	11:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I wonder if Slade shared any bills w/ Humble Pie...just blue-skying here...I think there is one Bill that The Wh♂ & Zep shared...
	11:51pm pacific standard simon: The one time I ever saw The Who was also the only time I saw The Grateful Dead. A Day On The Green in Oakland.
	11:51pm Droll: 2% Rock n Roll, 40% Slade, 33% Mellotron, 25% bass chords that don't make sense -- it's Dave Mandl's New World of Echo!
	11:51pm Dave Mandl: @RRN63: Slade and Humble Pie would have been the rockingest bill ever.
	11:52pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: Sounds about right.
	11:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& imagine if Lennon were still around in NYC to say 'Howdy' @ FMU...
	11:53pm Andrew Waterloo: Slade is just one of those things
	11:53pm P-90: I've heard of this fabled Day on the Green Did Dr. Leary make a gubernatorial campaign speech there?
	11:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - oh pss - don't make me hate you now : great poster for that w/ an Owl on a Skull...
	11:54pm P-90: @Droll: or: "Dave Mandl's BRAVE New World of Echo"
	11:55pm Dave Mandl: "So you think my singing's out of tune? Well, it makes me money" (Slade). How great is that?
	11:55pm Paul McCartney: Hello. I'm Paul, and I'd just like to say "WFMU rocks my world when I'm in New Jersey attending sporting events. Now pass the bloody reefer, mate."
	11:56pm Dave Mandl: Or "out of time"?
	11:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - ha P-90 !: 'They're free to listen to FreeJazz & Prog - but why would they!'...
	11:57pm P-90: @Sir Paul: Where's your hair??!
	11:57pm 12539: Thanks, Dave M. Good luck catching your train.
	11:57pm Droll: Time's up already... When you get the other hour back there'll be more time for the Weekly Math Quiz and this forbidden bass chord thing... You know, the important stuff.
	11:58pm Paul McCartney: On the hat rack, you swine!
	11:58pm fleep: Thanks, Dave!
	11:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - John & Paul spontaneously together on FMU - like they almost did on SaturdayNightLive...
	11:58pm Fuzzy: Will have to check in (wake up) earlier next time to catch more of the show -- good one!
	12:00am P-90: Thanks, Dave M! I'll bring a bass chord root note in next week for show and tell!
	12:01am Dave Mandl: Thanks, everyone! Have a great week.
	11:26pm Droll: Out of the blue, "Do you want...?" suddenly came to mind and I needed to hear the lads knock one off like it was nothing... Ridiculously tight band. This ditty is under 2 minutes! It's like a damned candy bar! Only the best parts, just the right amount of crunch, and so sweet your teeth hurt. So, are you gonna do 40% Slade? I'll listen.
	4:59pm maltempinulla: Finally caught up to last weeks show.... a fine one
