Therese! I was just thinking about Van Halen 30 seconds before you opened the show. You think that means something?

It's rock, and it's a ballad; it's Harry Chapin, and it isn't.

Pretty ballsy move with that Van Halen from “Women and Children First.” What a cruddy album that has a few moments of hope.

I was literally just thinking this afternoon about how I'd never heard any VDP on WFMU...
Avatar 12:38am
BadGuyZero:

I always liked when people would come in looking for music by bands that had a name that sounded like a person's name (Matt Bianco and Franz Ferdinand for example) and would be baffled when it wasn't filed under the last name.
  12:38am

now that i think of it, we definitely employed many people who would have filed van morrison after van halen

Van Dyke Parks has definitely been played a lot on FMU -- you just have to look for the usual suspects.

Yeah- I haven't been listening for that long, though, comparatively.

BGZ, I remember Led Zeppelin got that a lot in the '70s.
  12:43am
rw:

And that reminds me, my friend Erik went into the record store and asked the clerk if they had that song that goes, "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh."
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:43am
pacific standard simon:

@rw - that's probably because there were a lot of kids who never heard them referred to by their full name -- it was always "Zeppelin!" and "Stones!"
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:44am
pacific standard simon:

"Sabbath!"

BadGuyZero:

I was manager of the music and video departments at a few Borders locations. At one store the music department had this weird L-shape that was caused by a stock room. People would come up to the info desk asking why pop/rock ended in the middle of the Rs. The Rs continued around the corner, but they generally didn't look around.

Some of the people that shopped for classical music were very particular. One guy came up and had a fit because things weren't filed on the shelf by some catalogue number classification that only diehard classical music people know about. He ended up telling the store's general manager that I was rude to him. I asked if the guy had been crying. "If he wasn't crying I wasn't rude to him."
  12:45am
rw:

pss, no, I mean people thought Led Zeppelin was a person.
  12:45am
MONEYBAG$:

my mom took me into a record store and hummed kashmir to the guy at the counter when I was 14
  12:48am
MONEYBAG$:

classical people were the worst...they would just call and spit out some catalogue number from the swann cd guide, like you immediately knew what they were talking about
  12:49am
rw:

MONEYBAG$, your mom sounds awesome. Did the guy at the counter know the song?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:50am

@rw - Well, Darwin weeded out those dullards, maybe.

my favorite moment on the other end was when this straight laced guy uncomfortably asked if I knew a song with the refrain, "I love the cocaine, I love the cocaine". but i did know it was buckcherry. under B, not C

Squeaky Chair!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:02am
pacific standard simon:

Feelin' groovy, Therese?
  1:11am
rw:

My chair is stable and more or less comfortable but my dog likes to sit underneath and sometimes I accidentally roll over him which makes him yelp but doesn't make him move. There's a nice comfortable pillow for him three feet away. It's adding unnecessary stress to my life. I think I'm going to try moving the pillow a little closer...

Bob in DC and/or Virginia:

Yay! So glad we get to keep you, Therese!

Not as many changes on this schedule as I usually expect. Wish certain DJs were returning, or at least joining an alternate stream.

@rw: Have you considered counseling? Counseling for your dog?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:13am
pacific standard simon:

@rw - try eating more beans -- that should convince the dog.

BadGuyZero:

Have you tried leaving treats on the pillow?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:17am
pacific standard simon:

Actually kind of interested in Johnny's new book. Curious to see if time has mellowed his punk rhetoric. From the sound of his lyrics, I'd say the chances are good.
  1:18am
rw:

Moving the pillow seems to have worked, at least temporarily. It's like a weight's been lifted from my shoulders!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:23am

Quit draping the dog over your shoulders!

Dogs aren’t throw pillows.

Hm. Before the voice came in, this sounded like Nick Drake. Interesting comparison.

Therese, your spontaneously generated show is sounding great.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:50am

Have you ever tried playing a set of only records from one label? Has any DJ? I guess that, even now, that might raise the old specters of payola.

“Knott’s Berry Farm” actually was a berry farm at one point. And it didn’t refer to any skin tags or hemorrhoids that Don Knotts ever had.
