	3:33pm Parq: Aha. Probably the Click Kids is what I'm thinking of, although I see via Search Central that Spazz also plays the Knights version.
	3:35pm northguineahills: Chemical Bros., haven't thought of them in a few decades.
	3:38pm Laura L: News from Planet Manhattan: NYT yesterday: The developer Jared Kushner, son-in-law of the presidential hopeful Donald J. Trump, sold the second of six loft-style apartments at Puck Penthouses, a luxury condominium his firm assembled atop the landmark Puck Building in NoLIta. At $28,511,000, the transaction was the most expensive closed sale of the week, according to city records, as well as a neighborhood record. “The buyer made a nice deal, and we made a nice deal — and we set a record with the price. You can’t beat that,” said Mr. Kushner, who is married to Mr. Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump. Monthly carrying charges total $13,705.
	♥ 3:47pm ironybread: Just heard "Neil's Heavy Concept Album" last month for the first time. It is good. The CD reissue is recommended.

	4:41pm ledzeppelinsucks: yeahh Circle Jerkss I saw Greg Hetson taking a piss before a Circle Jerks show and asked why Golden Shower isn't on CD He said that sounds like a good idea
	4:41pm Roberto: Aw hell yes this is getting a gold star.
	4:43pm ?: Hey, I saw the CJs when Golden Shower was getting a lot of airplay. The bass player was breaking strings almost every song, that impressed me. Been a long time since I heard this, sounds pretty sedate now, eh?
	4:44pm DeemerDave: Great. Circle Jerks take a whole bunch of songs I hate and make them likable. How am I supposed to maintain my foul mood?
	4:58pm Luke: From Coulton's site: "*Following the 2008 election, renditions of the song were updated to W's reign of terror's finally over; Obama is pretty excellent so far" Pretty excellent so far....

	♥ 5:06pm ironybread: Question for anyone on the comments who's NYC-based...what's the best used record shop for getting old weird spoken word LPs? There's a poet, August Plinth, and he put out seven records of his own poetry on NYC's Vox Records in 1973. No one's got them on the internet so I think my only chance of finding them would be if they're in the bins in a store somewhere in greater NYC. All advice welcome.
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm Alison Porchnik: Laura: yes, and many, many, many more! (I am proud to have had a hand in discovering some of them, such as the last one played.)
	5:06pm P-90: Monica AND Clay. An embarrassment of riches!
	5:10pm Laura L: @AP--Hi ya--that's great! Looking forward to sending Irwin a nice pledge and receiving a copy!

	♥ 5:11pm Irwin: He's running. That's his campaign song.

	5:15pm northguineahills: ironybread: I'd check either Downtown Music Gallery or one of the Academy Records shops. Keep in mind, my wife has forbidden me from visiting record stores for the last 5 years, but I sneak a few every now and then....
	5:16pm A.T.F.: I hear the lyric in my head..
	5:16pm Carmichael: Then there's the Jimmy Carter song that gets lots of FMU airplay.
	5:16pm Listening Out There: Irwin, weren't you going to have Stephen Bennett on the program at some point?
	♥ 5:17pm coelacanth: this is extraordinary.

	♥ 5:21pm ironybread: Roger that, NorthGH. What's it like trying to find something at The Thing?
	♥ 5:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...only Amurica could create something as generous & beautiful & intricate as Jazz - & not give a sh*t about it...
	♥ 5:28pm Irwin: C'mon, Rev, you don't have to go all sneery about your fella 'Muricans because they don't share your musical tastes. Admit it, you like being an outlier, right?
	5:30pm northguineahills: @ironybread: I've never been inside The Thing, only perused their outside displays, so, I couldn't tell you...

	5:34pm A.T.F.: Any music that sounds good sounds even better in a small club ..atmosphere
	♥ 5:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Bop was deliberately exclusive - & Rawk gets beyond alienated & nihilist, (even tho' it's Party music. Odd isn't it?)...so Cool you freeze to Death...groups & individual identity is an Aquarian Age thang....
	♥ 5:40pm coelacanth: (i'm surprised no one mentioned "let's talk about jesse" by melle mel.)
	5:46pm ram: Niceeeeeee
	5:46pm ram: This is over 20 years oñd and still sounds excellent!
