	9:08am Joe McG: @Deacon: Yes, it's my gimmick.
	9:08am DeaconDave: Well, I like it, keep it up! Does a bear #$%& in the woods?
	9:09am pierre: I'll be there, after having been my afternoon coffee, Joe, you'll become my morning coffee… …I like coffee
	9:10am Joe McG: @pierre: I'd like nothing better than to be your morning coffee! Or toast or whatever.
	9:10am V Priceless: Hey Joe! Thursdays will never quite be the same without ya, but that being said, double-Joe Mondays are gonna kick butt!
	9:11am Greg from ZONE 5: So jangly. SO JANGLY!!!
	9:11am Cheri Pi: Joe! Sounding great my son.
	9:12am Joe McG: @Cheri Pi: Thank you, dear.
	9:14am pierre: merci Joe, parisian morning it is then
	9:14am Roberto: Mondays will suck less but Thursdays will suck more.
	9:14am bobdoesthings: good morning!
	👻 9:15am Brian in UK: @pierre we have the most beautiful day here in north-west London. Very misty around six AM.
	👻 9:15am Ken From Hyde Park: Lots of Joe and Jo programs on Monday on the new schedule. Joe McGasko, Joe Belock and Jo Firestone.
	9:16am Joe McG: @Ken: Station Manager Ken strategically putting all the Jo(es)s in one place as part of an effort to keep us contained.
	9:17am lisonok: Joe ~ I just started turning in to Surface Noise recently and it's quickly become my all time favorite show to listen to! Loved the Logical Song cover that you played last week that somebody made as part of a WFMU marathon. Love your playlists in general, thanks for a great morning!
	9:17am KP: Good morning to you, Joe
	👻 9:18am Brian in UK: Funny just been considering going to see JOzef von Wissem.
	9:18am Joe McG: Thanks so much, lisonok, I'm really glad you enjoy the show! I'll do my best to avoid stinking too much in the future.
	👻 9:21am Brian in UK: Off to see The Delines tomorrow. Along with my first cold of the year. If I find out who donated it to me I hope they spotaneously combust.
	9:22am Joe McG: @Brian: Summer colds are my least favorite of all colds.
	9:23am pierre: Planning to go and see YLT with my (wonderful) girlfriend in October, planning to wear my vintage WFMU t-shirt to see if it gets me closer to them… pathetic ? I know…
	9:24am Joe McG: @pierre: Give it a try! The WFMU telepathy might work even without it.
	9:26am Cheri Pi: I have connected to many bands by wearing a WFMU t-shirt, it will make YLT feel right at home.
	9:26am Andrew Waterloo: @pierre. seems like a plausible plan to me. My WFMU shirts have done me well.
	9:26am pierre: If I can get close enough, i'll make sure to send them some of the freeform waves
	9:26am maja: monday that's good news! hi joe, hi all
	👻 9:28am Liz Berg: Ooh, liking this Herbcraft!
	9:29am Cheri Pi: Damn, this Herbcraft is the Schnizzle
	9:29am bobdoesthings: this is setting off my sonar for songs that are soooo gnarrrr. get it?! my so gnar sonar! (Is marcel here?!)
	9:29am Joe McG: By the way, YLT fans, they will be on Gaylord Fields' program soon! Check the upcoming schedule on our homepage. Might be as soon as this Sunday.
	9:30am KP: Excellently Crafted
	9:31am bobdoesthings: * my sonar for so gnar.. argh ... i'll go
	9:31am Joe McG: Liz Berg! :)
	9:32am Wabo: remiinds me of jj cale this one
	9:33am Stevel: Majik also reminds me a bit of Tonetta.
	9:33am Mark: You are correct about Yo La Tengo, Joe. This Sunday with Gaylord. I don't care if you're on Mondays or Thursdays. I will listen to you in a car. I will listen to you at the bar. I will listen to you with no hair. I will listen to you anywhere.
	9:34am Joe McG: @Wabo/Stevel: Reminds me of somebody else, who you'll hear in a minute or two!
	9:34am Joe McG: @Mark: I encourage poetry about my program! Thanks!
	9:35am Mark: I thought it was Dr. John.
	9:36am Joe McG: @Mark: Exactamundo!
	9:37am Brendan: In honor of Thursdays past! http://youtu.be/JAGcT9tzzM4 http://youtu.be/ciz_C3xiuN0 http://youtu.be/-B1iKoKxkA0 http://youtu.be/cYYppwaCTo8
	9:37am Mark: I love Dr. John so much. I think I played him on the very first show I ever did on FMU. (Way back in July!)
	9:38am Mark: With apologies to Dr. Seuss. Oh wow this was the album I played--I played "Zu Zu Mamou," which is very similar to this one--both slithery and slippery and voodoo-y. This is a wonderful set through and through, sir.
	9:39am Mark: You can't go wrong with a toddler speaking the lyrics.
	9:39am Parq: Ol' Mac R has had his influence on a lot of folks. This summer, someone hipped me to this Belgian band, whose lead singer (despite his Flemish origin) rocks that vocal style. www.discogs.com...
	9:40am Joe McG: @Brendan: All swell Thursday tunes! I meant to close this show with the same one I started it with ("The World of Thursday Morning") but I forgot the 45 at home. So much for full circle!
	9:42am Stevel: Yes, also a similar style!
	9:43am Mark: Geezer My Neezer
	9:49am bobdoesthings: remove the rock open the saclacker..?? where have I heard that before.. what's this from!?
	9:50am Chris M.: got married to that Exuma song. v romantic night
	9:51am Joe McG: @Chris M.: The Paul Simon Nontooth has blessed many a union.
	9:51am Mark: Paul Simon's still pretty fucking great, isn't he?
	9:51am KP: Opening two lines contradict, no?
	9:52am KP: Sweet Thursday!
	9:52am thepalaceat4am: Ariel Pink imitates the "remove the rock" in his song "Artifact."
	9:52am annie: just checking in... been listening... some of this early poetry was aso perfect
	9:53am SheWolf: Wee! I love this Blondie cover.
	9:53am bobdoesthings: @ thepalaceat4am -- ahhh! that's how I knew it! thanks
	9:54am bobdoesthings: ah I think I saw Big Blood do this at monty hall a month ago or so.. sooooo amazing.
	9:55am KP: Put Liz Berg back on Mondays and I won't leave the house, not that I ever do
	9:56am Joe McG: @KP: She has to change her name to Joe first.
	9:57am annie: is there a link to the new schedule? please and thank-you..
	9:57am Joe McG: Hey Annie! I think it might be right on the home page...
	9:57am Rev. Turnip Druid: th'BLOOD!
	👻 10:00am Ken From Hyde Park: @annie - www.wfmu.org...
	10:01am bobdoesthings: @annie - its on the front page -- www.wfmu.org...
	10:01am annie: sweet! thanks!
	10:02am LexRay: All of this song <3
	10:04am holland oats: You sexy thang
	10:04am Listener Scott: is bed music a 45 slowed down to 33?
	10:05am Ear Hammer: Welcome to Mondays!
	10:06am Kurt Gottschalk: I MISSED EXUMA?!?
	10:06am Listener Scott: alternate title for new show: GOODBYE TO THURSDAYS!
	10:07am Roberto: Debbie Harry turned 70 this year. We're not youngsters anymore. :P
	10:08am Kurt Gottschalk: me? wha'd i do?
	👻 10:09am Ken From Hyde Park: Kurt, you're here early. You go on the air at 3:00 PM today.
	10:11am Kurt Gottschalk: dang, i'll head back home i guess...
	10:11am Listener Scott: I knew it was slowed down. But I'll forego my prize so another caller can have a chance.
	10:12am Kurt Gottschalk: HI!
	10:13am Joe McG: Good ideas, all, Listener Scott! Ear Hammer, we are now closer in radio space than ever before.
	10:16am Kurt Gottschalk: the exile loop was nice. i'll admit i couldn't place it.
	10:16am common: hey!
	10:17am Kurt Gottschalk: now looking for more opportunities to use the phrase "exile loop."
	10:17am Ear Hammer: Welcome to the club! Irony of ironies I'm moving to Thursdays in November.
	10:18am Joe McG: @Kurt: All your idea, my friend! @Ear: Ha ha! Life is funny.
	10:22am Nate K: "Love Magic." Total groover, Joe!
	10:23am Joe McG: @NateK: I'm dancin'!
	10:24am Cheri Pi: *Click
	10:32am Brendan: slipping into a groove here
	10:32am pierre: OOOOOh that bed music… I have to know what it is…
	10:36am Joe McG: @pierre: It's Exile's "Kiss You All Over" played slow!
	10:37am Mike East: The Al Downing verses sound like "higher and higher" to me.
	10:38am Mike East: oh, and good morning, Joe and all!
	10:38am Joe McG: You're so right, Mike!
	10:39am pierre: Merci Joe ! I'll try to get my hand on a 7" and play it slooooooooooooow
	👻 10:39am Brian in UK: Hey Kurt have you been to Brno yet?
	10:41am Claw!: Ahhh! I overslept! I wanted to catch this last Thursday program! I fahhhcked ahhhp. Anyway... Yo! How's it shakin, Gang?
	10:43am Joe McG: Hey, Claw! Wakey wakey!
	👻 10:43am Ken From Hyde Park: Aha! Joe, you just want to be the first DJ of the week to air the 45s when Singles Going Steady Week begins. That's your motivation for moving to Monday mornings. (Overnight DJs not withstanding.)
	10:44am common: just woke up also, claw! good day
	10:44am Joe McG: @Ken: You guessed it, Ken! 'Morning, common!
	10:45am Claw!: Hey common! Buenos dias.
	10:45am ChrisB.: This move to Mondays works for me. Nothing like Joe/Joe A-Go-go to start the week.
	10:46am Marc Francis: McGasko and Beelock back to back. I can dig it.
	👻 10:46am Ken From Hyde Park: @Claw! Wow...that was some Labor Day, huh?
	10:46am Joe McG: @ChrisB: I don't know if I mentioned it, but I'm changing my show to an All Drone format. (J/K!)
	10:47am Brendan: Mondays will be transformed from a rut into a groove
	10:48am Listener Alexandra: You could have not made me happier, Joe. The best version of this song ever!
	10:49am Nate K: So Kimberley Rew wrote this, but the Soft Boys never recorded, yes?
	10:49am Joe McG: @Alex: :)!
	10:50am Claw!: Heh... yeah, Cken, I suppose it was! It was pretty great to get outta Dodge, though, even if it was only for a few days. Hope you had a good Labor Day weekend yourself. :)
	👻 10:50am Brian in UK: Were The Rising Sons a short lived band with Ry Cooder and Taj Mahal. Any connection?
	10:50am Joe McG: @Nate: Yes, I think too poppy for the Softs. He saved 'em all for his solo albums and Katrina. @Brian: No connection!
	10:51am Mark: It's true, I was a quart low on Katrina and the Waves this morning.
	10:52am nickybones: Whoa, this starts off just like Cuddly Toy...
	10:52am Joe McG: @nickyb: You're right!
	10:52am Mark: Ha! Wasn't Apollo 100 in "Boogie Nights" for a second? Over one of those montage sequences.
	10:53am common: this record was always playing in my house when i was a kid, joe. thanks for the apollo! great record cover and guitar solo!
	10:53am Brendan: I can still see this yellow 45
	10:54am melinda: Mark it was. It's helping my morning, didn't know this was what I needed but it is.
	10:58am Joe McG: Hi, melinda!
	👻 10:58am Brian in UK: Only in 1973 could lyrics like this appear.
	11:00am pierre: "It's ALMOST over" I don't like the sound of that…
	11:00am Mark: I knew this had to be them Lizards. Remember their version of "Money" was very popular, too.
	11:01am coelacanth: Mornin' Joe and noise surfers.
	11:01am Joe McG: @pierre: My summertime blues, I mean!
	11:01am melinda: This might be my favorite cover of Summertime Blues.
	👻 11:02am Brian in UK: Oh those flat estuary vowels.
	11:02am Mark: It seems to be impossible to do a bad version of this song, Melinda--The Who, Blue Cheer, Eddie Cochran himself--they're all great!
	11:03am Listener Alexandra: OMG. The video for this song was everything in 1981!
	11:03am PKNY: A non-ironic clicky-star for my boy Aldo!
	👻 11:03am Brian in UK: Eddie Cochran was an exceptional talent.
	11:04am ChrisB.: I've heard this song thousands of times, yet I would never be able to pull up Aldo Nova.
	11:05am Claw!: I need a fancy, sleek and angular red car to roll around on top of suggestively and whip my hair around STAT.
	11:06am common: hee hee, just walked in the room and heard the end of the aldo nova. good stuff, joe!
	11:06am Polyus: I believe Clay P. once opened for Aldo Nova.
	11:08am coelacanth: whatever the paper says is good. weather good.
	11:09am Rich in Washington: That Aldo Nova song takes me back to High School, right on the cusp of discovering weird music.
	11:10am Rev. Turnip Druid: HOLY CRAP, how could I have missed the Aldo Nova tune? ...and what Rich in Washington said. Same.
	11:10am Rev. Turnip Druid: The helicopters! The pew-pew!
	👻 11:11am Brian in UK: Hey Joe Bach is our dog's favourite composer.
	11:11am Rich in Washington: I am surprised it was as late as '81. I have this false memory of having ditched our local classic rock station by then for something else. Guess not.
	11:15am Rev. Turnip Druid: My mental flashback playlist always sequences Fantasy with Billy Thorpe's "children of the sun" -- must be the pew-pew.
	11:15am KP: Brooklyn
	11:16am βrian: I have a quadruple espresso in my hand. My attitude is about to change.
	11:17am Claw!: Was the move to Mondays your choice, Joe? Or was that a Ken thing?
	11:18am KP: Brooklyn
	11:18am KP: I am not getting through
	11:19am KP: to you
	11:19am Mark: Tell some more little green men stories, that was funny.
	11:22am wild neil: Its cool in the Buffalo NY region today.
	11:22am PKNY: Props to whoever the drummer on this Ian Green track is!
	11:22am Cecile: hola!
	11:23am Rev. Turnip Druid: CEE!
	11:23am Claw!: Hey Lady!
	11:23am Joe McG: @PKNY: You said it!
	11:24am samertime: this track is gold
	11:26am Cecile: well, I can see you transitioning pretty smoothly into mr. Belock. And Chris M's black metal-lish leanings complementing Diane
	11:27am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Something's Gotten...' another I know only from 'Kicking Against the Pricks' - Nick Cave & Bad Seeds' great album of covers - & which I only hear the original Thx to FMU...
	11:27am wild neil: This song rules.
	11:29am Kurt Gottschalk: woohoo!
	11:32am Kelly Jones: Good Morning Savior Joe.
	11:32am Cecile: I know where Syd Barrett lives.
	11:33am Joe McG: Kelly Jones, you are my idol.
	11:34am βrian: Complementing? That's a lot of salvage yard in a short amount of time. Thank heavens for Charlie.
	👻 11:34am Brian in UK: Joe, is this a new one from Martin Newell? Any verbals on it?
	11:34am Brendan: Always the summers are slipping away
	11:35am Joe McG: @Brian: Yes! Most of them are verbals. I love that, BTW, I'm using it from now on for songs with vocals.
	11:38am Dean: I am just now midway through Alistair MacLeod's short story, "The Closing Down of Summer."
	11:38am Cecile: Brian, the more salvage yard the better! Let the war banners of me-TAL unfurl.
	11:39am Cecile: and on Monday, the checked picnic cloths of country and folk may also unfurl.
	11:40am Cecile: and the pit barbeque of Southern rock 'n' roll in all its variations let loose its tantalizing smells
	11:42am βrian: Too homogenous for me. All the banners are gray on gray.
	11:43am Cecile: nah, it won't be. I think it will be great.
	11:43am Joe McG: @Dean: I don't know it, but it sounds perfect for now.
	👻 11:45am Brian in UK: Joe, it is Jac Holzman's birthday on 15th September. Just saying.
	11:45am Tommy: Finally someone on FMU played this unique Van Morrison piece
	11:45am Cecile: Coool!
	11:46am Joe McG: @Brian: Ha ha ha! @Tommy: Thanks for breaking my Van the Man jinx! Every time I play him, the comments board goes DEAD. But I love him.
	11:46am βrian: @Tommy: I was just thinking how odd it was that I liked something by Van. This is a first. Thanks, Joe.
	11:47am Dean: MacLeod was a writer from (and about) Nova Scotia, where his stories tend to take place. The stories are beautiful and painful at once. I was reminded of his work after Trouble recommended Jane Gardam. Based on that rec, I read a collection of her stories, and it occurred to me that she treated similar themes in similar ways.
	11:49am KP: Resorting to the real computer. Ah, that's better.
	11:49am Listener Scott: This is very Tim Buckley
	11:50am Laura L: When Ryley Walker played at Poisson Rouge a few weeks ago, he mentioned he's got a new album coming out soonish.
	11:50am V Priceless: thanks Joe! Hear ya Monday!
	11:51am Listener Scott: Had to check that the 2015 release date for Ryley was accurate. Really liked that.
	👻 11:51am Brian in UK: @Dean have you sampled Annie Proulx?
	11:52am Laura L: @Scott--it's a very good album--a keeper.
	👻 11:53am Brian in UK: Ryley Walker was playing a 1000 year old church in Guildford last week. Guess who missed him.
	11:53am Dean: @Brian in UK: I haven't, alas. Truly, I don't often have an opportunity to read for pleasure as I have lately. I regret not being able to read (and reread) the works of Anita Brookner, which I adore, or Henry James, for that matter. But I've managed to fit in some reading lately on the bus, on an airplane, etc.
	11:55am βrian: Annie won't further the illusion you're reading for pleasure, so don't worry. Oy. Great writer, though.
	11:55am KP: See ya, Joe.
	11:55am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting, everyone! I hope some of you will follow me to Monday mornings. Have a great weekend and see you in 4 days!
	11:56am John W: Renee Armand and the Flying Lizards was an inspired pairing.
	11:56am Brendan: Im a thankin you Mr Joe.
	👻 11:56am Brian in UK: He's a crazy in the coconut but we loves him. Cheers Joe.
	11:57am βrian: Busy Doing Nothing with Charlie. Coming up: wfmu.org...
	11:57am Dean: @βrian: Well, if her surname is any indication -- How does one pronounce it? -- the rest must be tough going.
	11:58am βrian: I think it's just "proo."
	11:58am Claw!: Thursdays have been great with you, Joe, but I look forward to kicking off the week with you! Have a good weekend. Later, Kids!
	11:59am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks much, Joe!
	11:59am Stevel: I will follow him: The Joe McG story.
	12:00pm bobdoesthings: thanks joe!
	12:27pm Steve: Thanks for playing Aldo Nova and The Flying Lizards, Joe !

	9:06am DeaconDave: Will you still have the singles?
	👻 9:07am Brian in UK: @DeaconDave Is the Pope a Catholic?
	9:08am Joe McG: @Deacon: Yes, it's my gimmick.
	9:08am DeaconDave: Well, I like it, keep it up! Does a bear #$%& in the woods?
	9:09am pierre: I'll be there, after having been my afternoon coffee, Joe, you'll become my morning coffee… …I like coffee
	9:10am Joe McG: @pierre: I'd like nothing better than to be your morning coffee! Or toast or whatever.
	9:10am V Priceless: Hey Joe! Thursdays will never quite be the same without ya, but that being said, double-Joe Mondays are gonna kick butt!
	9:11am Greg from ZONE 5: So jangly. SO JANGLY!!!
	9:11am Cheri Pi: Joe! Sounding great my son.

	👻 9:15am Ken From Hyde Park: Lots of Joe and Jo programs on Monday on the new schedule. Joe McGasko, Joe Belock and Jo Firestone.
	9:16am Joe McG: @Ken: Station Manager Ken strategically putting all the Jo(es)s in one place as part of an effort to keep us contained.
	9:17am lisonok: Joe ~ I just started turning in to Surface Noise recently and it's quickly become my all time favorite show to listen to!

	9:17am KP: Good morning to you, Joe
	👻 9:18am Brian in UK: Funny just been considering going to see JOzef von Wissem.
	9:18am Joe McG: Thanks so much, lisonok, I'm really glad you enjoy the show! I'll do my best to avoid stinking too much in the future.
	👻 9:21am Brian in UK: Off to see The Delines tomorrow. Along with my first cold of the year. If I find out who donated it to me I hope they spotaneously combust.
	9:22am Joe McG: @Brian: Summer colds are my least favorite of all colds.
	9:23am pierre: Planning to go and see YLT with my (wonderful) girlfriend in October, planning to wear my vintage WFMU t-shirt to see if it gets me closer to them… pathetic ? I know…
	9:24am Joe McG: @pierre: Give it a try! The WFMU telepathy might work even without it.
	9:26am Cheri Pi: I have connected to many bands by wearing a WFMU t-shirt, it will make YLT feel right at home.
	9:26am Andrew Waterloo: @pierre. seems like a plausible plan to me. My WFMU shirts have done me well.
	9:26am pierre: If I can get close enough, i'll make sure to send them some of the freeform waves
	9:26am maja: monday that's good news! hi joe, hi all

	9:32am Wabo: remiinds me of jj cale this one
	9:33am Stevel: Majik also reminds me a bit of Tonetta.
	9:33am Mark: You are correct about Yo La Tengo, Joe. This Sunday with Gaylord. I don't care if you're on Mondays or Thursdays. I will listen to you in a car. I will listen to you at the bar. I will listen to you with no hair. I will listen to you anywhere.
	9:34am Joe McG: @Wabo/Stevel: Reminds me of somebody else, who you'll hear in a minute or two!
	9:34am Joe McG: @Mark: I encourage poetry about my program! Thanks!

	9:36am Joe McG: @Mark: Exactamundo!
	9:37am Brendan: In honor of Thursdays past! http://youtu.be/JAGcT9tzzM4 http://youtu.be/ciz_C3xiuN0 http://youtu.be/-B1iKoKxkA0 http://youtu.be/cYYppwaCTo8
	9:37am Mark: I love Dr. John so much. I think I played him on the very first show I ever did on FMU. (Way back in July!)
	9:38am Mark: With apologies to Dr. Seuss. Oh wow this was the album I played--I played "Zu Zu Mamou," which is very similar to this one--both slithery and slippery and voodoo-y. This is a wonderful set through and through, sir.
	9:39am Mark: You can't go wrong with a toddler speaking the lyrics.
	9:39am Parq: Ol' Mac R has had his influence on a lot of folks. This summer, someone hipped me to this Belgian band, whose lead singer (despite his Flemish origin) rocks that vocal style. www.discogs.com...
	9:40am Joe McG: @Brendan: All swell Thursday tunes! I meant to close this show with the same one I started it with ("The World of Thursday Morning") but I forgot the 45 at home. So much for full circle!
	9:42am Stevel: Yes, also a similar style!
	9:43am Mark: Geezer My Neezer
	9:49am bobdoesthings: remove the rock open the saclacker..?? where have I heard that before.. what's this from!?
	9:50am Chris M.: got married to that Exuma song. v romantic night

	9:51am Mark: Paul Simon's still pretty fucking great, isn't he?
	9:51am KP: Opening two lines contradict, no?
	9:52am KP: Sweet Thursday!
	9:52am thepalaceat4am: Ariel Pink imitates the "remove the rock" in his song "Artifact."
	9:52am annie: just checking in... been listening... some of this early poetry was aso perfect
	9:53am SheWolf: Wee! I love this Blondie cover.
	9:53am bobdoesthings: @ thepalaceat4am -- ahhh! that's how I knew it! thanks
	9:54am bobdoesthings: ah I think I saw Big Blood do this at monty hall a month ago or so.. sooooo amazing.
	9:55am KP: Put Liz Berg back on Mondays and I won't leave the house, not that I ever do
	9:56am Joe McG: @KP: She has to change her name to Joe first.
	9:57am annie: is there a link to the new schedule? please and thank-you..
	9:57am Joe McG: Hey Annie! I think it might be right on the home page...
	9:57am Rev. Turnip Druid: th'BLOOD!
	👻 10:00am Ken From Hyde Park: @annie - www.wfmu.org...

	10:05am Ear Hammer: Welcome to Mondays!
	10:06am Kurt Gottschalk: I MISSED EXUMA?!?
	10:06am Listener Scott: alternate title for new show: GOODBYE TO THURSDAYS!
	10:07am Roberto: Debbie Harry turned 70 this year. We're not youngsters anymore. :P
	10:08am Kurt Gottschalk: me? wha'd i do?
	👻 10:09am Ken From Hyde Park: Kurt, you're here early. You go on the air at 3:00 PM today.
	10:11am Kurt Gottschalk: dang, i'll head back home i guess...
	10:11am Listener Scott: I knew it was slowed down. But I'll forego my prize so another caller can have a chance.
	10:12am Kurt Gottschalk: HI!
	10:13am Joe McG: Good ideas, all, Listener Scott! Ear Hammer, we are now closer in radio space than ever before.
	10:16am Kurt Gottschalk: the exile loop was nice. i'll admit i couldn't place it.
	10:16am common: hey!
	10:17am Kurt Gottschalk: now looking for more opportunities to use the phrase "exile loop."
	10:17am Ear Hammer: Welcome to the club! Irony of ironies I'm moving to Thursdays in November.
	10:18am Joe McG: @Kurt: All your idea, my friend! @Ear: Ha ha! Life is funny.
	10:22am Nate K: "Love Magic." Total groover, Joe!
	10:23am Joe McG: @NateK: I'm dancin'!
	10:24am Cheri Pi: *Click
	10:32am Brendan: slipping into a groove here
	10:32am pierre: OOOOOh that bed music… I have to know what it is…
	10:36am Joe McG: @pierre: It's Exile's "Kiss You All Over" played slow!
	10:37am Mike East: The Al Downing verses sound like "higher and higher" to me.
	10:38am Mike East: oh, and good morning, Joe and all!
	10:38am Joe McG: You're so right, Mike!
	10:39am pierre: Merci Joe ! I'll try to get my hand on a 7" and play it slooooooooooooow
	👻 10:39am Brian in UK: Hey Kurt have you been to Brno yet?
	10:41am Claw!: Ahhh! I overslept! I wanted to catch this last Thursday program! I fahhhcked ahhhp. Anyway... Yo! How's it shakin, Gang?
	10:43am Joe McG: Hey, Claw! Wakey wakey!
	👻 10:43am Ken From Hyde Park: Aha! Joe, you just want to be the first DJ of the week to air the 45s when Singles Going Steady Week begins. That's your motivation for moving to Monday mornings. (Overnight DJs not withstanding.)
	10:44am common: just woke up also, claw! good day
	10:44am Joe McG: @Ken: You guessed it, Ken! 'Morning, common!
	10:45am Claw!: Hey common! Buenos dias.
	10:45am ChrisB.: This move to Mondays works for me. Nothing like Joe/Joe A-Go-go to start the week.
	10:46am Marc Francis: McGasko and Beelock back to back. I can dig it.
	👻 10:46am Ken From Hyde Park: @Claw! Wow...that was some Labor Day, huh?
	10:46am Joe McG: @ChrisB: I don't know if I mentioned it, but I'm changing my show to an All Drone format. (J/K!)
	10:47am Brendan: Mondays will be transformed from a rut into a groove
	10:48am Listener Alexandra: You could have not made me happier, Joe. The best version of this song ever!
	10:49am Nate K: So Kimberley Rew wrote this, but the Soft Boys never recorded, yes?
	10:49am Joe McG: @Alex: :)!
	10:50am Claw!: Heh... yeah, Cken, I suppose it was! It was pretty great to get outta Dodge, though, even if it was only for a few days. Hope you had a good Labor Day weekend yourself. :)
	👻 10:50am Brian in UK: Were The Rising Sons a short lived band with Ry Cooder and Taj Mahal. Any connection?
	10:50am Joe McG: @Nate: Yes, I think too poppy for the Softs. He saved 'em all for his solo albums and Katrina. @Brian: No connection!
	10:51am Mark: It's true, I was a quart low on Katrina and the Waves this morning.
	10:52am nickybones: Whoa, this starts off just like Cuddly Toy...
	10:52am Joe McG: @nickyb: You're right!
	10:52am Mark: Ha! Wasn't Apollo 100 in "Boogie Nights" for a second? Over one of those montage sequences.
	10:53am common: this record was always playing in my house when i was a kid, joe. thanks for the apollo! great record cover and guitar solo!
	10:53am Brendan: I can still see this yellow 45
	10:54am melinda: Mark it was. It's helping my morning, didn't know this was what I needed but it is.
	10:58am Joe McG: Hi, melinda!
	👻 10:58am Brian in UK: Only in 1973 could lyrics like this appear.
	11:00am pierre: "It's ALMOST over" I don't like the sound of that…
	11:00am Mark: I knew this had to be them Lizards. Remember their version of "Money" was very popular, too.
	11:01am coelacanth: Mornin' Joe and noise surfers.
	11:01am Joe McG: @pierre: My summertime blues, I mean!
	11:01am melinda: This might be my favorite cover of Summertime Blues.
	👻 11:02am Brian in UK: Oh those flat estuary vowels.
	11:02am Mark: It seems to be impossible to do a bad version of this song, Melinda--The Who, Blue Cheer, Eddie Cochran himself--they're all great!
	11:03am Listener Alexandra: OMG. The video for this song was everything in 1981!
	11:03am PKNY: A non-ironic clicky-star for my boy Aldo!
	👻 11:03am Brian in UK: Eddie Cochran was an exceptional talent.
	11:04am ChrisB.: I've heard this song thousands of times, yet I would never be able to pull up Aldo Nova.
	11:05am Claw!: I need a fancy, sleek and angular red car to roll around on top of suggestively and whip my hair around STAT.
	11:06am common: hee hee, just walked in the room and heard the end of the aldo nova. good stuff, joe!
	11:06am Polyus: I believe Clay P. once opened for Aldo Nova.
	11:08am coelacanth: whatever the paper says is good. weather good.
	11:09am Rich in Washington: That Aldo Nova song takes me back to High School, right on the cusp of discovering weird music.
	11:10am Rev. Turnip Druid: HOLY CRAP, how could I have missed the Aldo Nova tune? ...and what Rich in Washington said. Same.
	11:10am Rev. Turnip Druid: The helicopters! The pew-pew!
	👻 11:11am Brian in UK: Hey Joe Bach is our dog's favourite composer.
	11:11am Rich in Washington: I am surprised it was as late as '81. I have this false memory of having ditched our local classic rock station by then for something else. Guess not.
	11:15am Rev. Turnip Druid: My mental flashback playlist always sequences Fantasy with Billy Thorpe's "children of the sun" -- must be the pew-pew.
	11:15am KP: Brooklyn
	11:16am βrian: I have a quadruple espresso in my hand. My attitude is about to change.
	11:17am Claw!: Was the move to Mondays your choice, Joe? Or was that a Ken thing?
	11:18am KP: Brooklyn
	11:18am KP: I am not getting through
	11:19am KP: to you
	11:19am Mark: Tell some more little green men stories, that was funny.
	11:22am wild neil: Its cool in the Buffalo NY region today.
	11:22am PKNY: Props to whoever the drummer on this Ian Green track is!
	11:22am Cecile: hola!
	11:23am Rev. Turnip Druid: CEE!
	11:23am Claw!: Hey Lady!
	11:23am Joe McG: @PKNY: You said it!
	11:24am samertime: this track is gold
	11:26am Cecile: well, I can see you transitioning pretty smoothly into mr. Belock. And Chris M's black metal-lish leanings complementing Diane
	11:27am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Something's Gotten...' another I know only from 'Kicking Against the Pricks' - Nick Cave & Bad Seeds' great album of covers - & which I only hear the original Thx to FMU...
	11:27am wild neil: This song rules.
	11:29am Kurt Gottschalk: woohoo!
	11:32am Kelly Jones: Good Morning Savior Joe.
	11:32am Cecile: I know where Syd Barrett lives.
	11:33am Joe McG: Kelly Jones, you are my idol.
	11:34am βrian: Complementing? That's a lot of salvage yard in a short amount of time. Thank heavens for Charlie.
	👻 11:34am Brian in UK: Joe, is this a new one from Martin Newell? Any verbals on it?
	11:34am Brendan: Always the summers are slipping away
	11:35am Joe McG: @Brian: Yes! Most of them are verbals. I love that, BTW, I'm using it from now on for songs with vocals.
	11:38am Dean: I am just now midway through Alistair MacLeod's short story, "The Closing Down of Summer."
	11:38am Cecile: Brian, the more salvage yard the better! Let the war banners of me-TAL unfurl.
	11:39am Cecile: and on Monday, the checked picnic cloths of country and folk may also unfurl.
	11:40am Cecile: and the pit barbeque of Southern rock 'n' roll in all its variations let loose its tantalizing smells
	11:42am βrian: Too homogenous for me. All the banners are gray on gray.
	11:43am Cecile: nah, it won't be. I think it will be great.
	11:43am Joe McG: @Dean: I don't know it, but it sounds perfect for now.
	👻 11:45am Brian in UK: Joe, it is Jac Holzman's birthday on 15th September. Just saying.
	11:45am Tommy: Finally someone on FMU played this unique Van Morrison piece
	11:45am Cecile: Coool!
	11:46am Joe McG: @Brian: Ha ha ha! @Tommy: Thanks for breaking my Van the Man jinx! Every time I play him, the comments board goes DEAD. But I love him.
	11:46am βrian: @Tommy: I was just thinking how odd it was that I liked something by Van. This is a first. Thanks, Joe.
	11:47am Dean: MacLeod was a writer from (and about) Nova Scotia, where his stories tend to take place. The stories are beautiful and painful at once. I was reminded of his work after Trouble recommended Jane Gardam. Based on that rec, I read a collection of her stories, and it occurred to me that she treated similar themes in similar ways.
	11:49am KP: Resorting to the real computer. Ah, that's better.
	11:49am Listener Scott: This is very Tim Buckley
	11:50am Laura L: When Ryley Walker played at Poisson Rouge a few weeks ago, he mentioned he's got a new album coming out soonish.
	11:50am V Priceless: thanks Joe! Hear ya Monday!
	11:51am Listener Scott: Had to check that the 2015 release date for Ryley was accurate. Really liked that.
	👻 11:51am Brian in UK: @Dean have you sampled Annie Proulx?
	11:52am Laura L: @Scott--it's a very good album--a keeper.
	👻 11:53am Brian in UK: Ryley Walker was playing a 1000 year old church in Guildford last week. Guess who missed him.
	11:53am Dean: @Brian in UK: I haven't, alas. Truly, I don't often have an opportunity to read for pleasure as I have lately. I regret not being able to read (and reread) the works of Anita Brookner, which I adore, or Henry James, for that matter. But I've managed to fit in some reading lately on the bus, on an airplane, etc.
	11:55am βrian: Annie won't further the illusion you're reading for pleasure, so don't worry. Oy. Great writer, though.
	11:55am KP: See ya, Joe.
	11:55am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting, everyone! I hope some of you will follow me to Monday mornings. Have a great weekend and see you in 4 days!
	11:56am John W: Renee Armand and the Flying Lizards was an inspired pairing.
	11:56am Brendan: Im a thankin you Mr Joe.
	👻 11:56am Brian in UK: He's a crazy in the coconut but we loves him. Cheers Joe.
	11:57am βrian: Busy Doing Nothing with Charlie. Coming up: wfmu.org...
	11:57am Dean: @βrian: Well, if her surname is any indication -- How does one pronounce it? -- the rest must be tough going.
	11:58am βrian: I think it's just "proo."
	11:58am Claw!: Thursdays have been great with you, Joe, but I look forward to kicking off the week with you! Have a good weekend. Later, Kids!
	11:59am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks much, Joe!
	11:59am Stevel: I will follow him: The Joe McG story.
	12:00pm bobdoesthings: thanks joe!
	12:27pm Steve: Thanks for playing Aldo Nova and The Flying Lizards, Joe !
