	3:06pm Sem Chumbo: Pre-Chilliwack. Far out, eh? Scott, nice rarity.That it's CanCon only shines up the achievement. Hiya, all.

	3:10pm Lewis: Hey Scott - did you get my email about a Sex and Broadcasting MeetUp here in the twin cities?
	3:11pm Cecile: is it coming to town officially?
	3:11pm V Priceless: Hey Scott! Wondering if Tomita (RIP) is gonna get any love on FMU...."Snowflakes Are Dancing" is a brilliant record, in my humble.

	3:15pm Davis: ace sax
	3:15pm Cecile: from the liner notes to the reissue: "Though The Collectors, as Henderson acknowledges, "was not a hit record, it was quite strong in a regional kind of way. When KSAN [one of the first underground rock-oriented FM radio stations] started in San Francisco, they played it like a single; they played it every day." Yet "What Love (Suite)," "which would bring the house down [at the] Fillmore West, was despised at [New York's] Fillmore East by some...by enough. By the Village Voice, for one, who said the best thing we could do for rock was disband. It was nice reading that review the next day," Bill laughs. But, he adds, "It was quite influential in Europe," where it got a strong reaction in England, Germany, and Holland in particular. "
	🧩 3:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: There was a Comic-Con in Poughkeepsie this weekend. They were charging admission, so I didn't go. I hope that does not make me a bad person.
	3:18pm Lewis: @Scott - just you - I will send again when I get home. Are you the right person?
	3:18pm Cecile: this sounds like a Twilight Zone episode crossed with the Hampton Grease Band.
	3:21pm Scott Williams: @Lewis, Liz Berg tends to arrange meetups, drop her a line via www.wfmu.org...
	3:22pm Cecile: why is there not a 99 records box set?
	3:23pm Lewis: @Scott - will do! Thanks!
	🧩 3:24pm Ken From Hyde Park: Lewis is getting things done!
	3:24pm Lewis: @Ken from HP - Roger That!
	3:26pm Polyus: Is someone actually doing a q&a here with the movie?
	3:26pm coelacanth: hello Scott and others
	3:28pm V Priceless: hey fish
	3:30pm Cecile: hey, march violets!
	3:30pm V Priceless: Billy's put on a few pounds, huh?
	3:30pm Dean: Billy Idle
	3:31pm coelacanth: hey V(I)P, how ya been?
	3:31pm Michael 98145: as sung by the sad giant
	3:31pm monobrau: Barry Idol
	3:32pm khd: excellent slowdown...johnny hartmann covers billy idol
	3:32pm Scott Williams: Billy Idol slowed down sounds like Julian Cope
	3:32pm Cecile: Generation XXL
	3:33pm coelacanth: ha! - "Wh'Idol".
	3:33pm V Priceless: 'lude mix!
	3:34pm geezerette: relaxed fit! heehee!
	3:34pm Cecile: chopped and screwed
	3:34pm Dean: Ivan Rebroff Sings Hits of the '80s
	3:34pm V Priceless: haha....great comments
	3:35pm Lyle: Amused by this Tomita resurgence I'm sensing at WFMU. I happened to have met the man circa '71 when I was touring with Vicki Carr as a supplemental soprano trombonist. In the event that their full-time soprano trombonist was incapacitated or otherwise unable to fulfill his duties, I would be called upon to fill-in. Otherwise, I would hang out by the sno-cone machine handing out 5x7's of Vicki and generally being a goodwill ambassador for her. I met Isao Tomita this way. He was a HUGE Vicki Carr fan and also he had a penchant for blueberry sno-cones. As we spoke (through his interpreter) I learned that he had just purchased a Baldwin Acro-Sonic organ with Color-Glo keys which he was modifying with a Heathkit package into a workable synthesizer. He told me that he was trying to decide whether to interpret Holtz's, The Planets, or Olivia Newton-John's "Sam." We all know what decision he ultimately made! He was much smaller in real life than one might imagine. 4' 10", tops. Very cordial, though.
	3:37pm coelacanth: haha! Great story!
	3:37pm Cecile: what's the word for "Griefkit" in Japanese.
	3:37pm Scott Williams: welcome back, Lyle!
	3:38pm geezerette: Lyyyyyyyyyyyyle! (:c)
	🧩 3:39pm Ken From Hyde Park: 2017 WFMU Marathon Funds Wish List: Sno Cone machine for Monty Hall
	3:39pm Dean: Jesus, Lyle, it's Holst!
	3:41pm Cecile: outrigger rock. Loved the pedal steel solo
	3:42pm V Priceless: yes, fine story, Lyle - I suppose Tomita's with Jack Horkheimer now, hustling stars for real....
	3:42pm coelacanth: Dean, Lyle was distracted, thinking about Vikki Carr.
	3:44pm Lewis: hey Lyle - Skitch Hederson was not Mitch's dad, which leaves the toot theilman tape in Mitch's Tavern once again mysterious...
	3:46pm βrian: Scott, you're re-buh ... buh ... buh ... rebuffering a lot!
	3:46pm Dean: Tomita ultimately made the album "Snowcones Are Dancing."
	3:46pm Michael 98145: ditto here, Brian
	3:47pm coelacanth: oh i thought it was my pre-historic computer.
	3:48pm Anonymous Coward: Its liz
	3:48pm Jeff: Nope, we've been having some network issues somewhere. Looking into it. And yeah, it's Liz who talks over that.
	3:51pm Lyle: You got that right Coel-o! Ha! Actually, I am a member of Holst's fan club - The Holsters, named in honor of his penchant for full-bore, aluminum Luger pistols which he loved to shoot during performances, at large, blown-up Man Ray photographs. Those two had a real beef, evidently. I've been told that David Hasselhoff is actually the son of Holst, and that Hasselhoof is presently scoring "The Janets," a three-movement symphony based on the lives of Janet Jackson - Janet Funicello (Annette's sister) and Janet Reno. We'll see how THAT turns out! L
	3:51pm Dean: Wow, Chilliwack did "Arms of Mary"!
	3:53pm Dean: I call b.s., Lyle. Holst has no fans.
	3:53pm coelacanth: haha!
	3:54pm V Priceless: yeah, and Pluto's not a planet anymore, so there!
	3:55pm Dean: Actually, the mini-opera Savitri is kind of cool.
	3:55pm geezerette: Headsign? what?
	3:56pm coelacanth: "the 3 Janets"... i had (have?) a pandora station i named "the Saints Louis". Louie Prima, Louis Jordan, Louis Armstrong. -'seems like a better match.
	3:56pm Dean: You're thinking "kopf," geezerette. "Klopf" means "knock."
	3:56pm Clay: Arms of Mary? That was Sutherland Brothers and Quiver, to be featured on CC8! Scott, glad you got the Bufferin account!
	3:57pm Dean: Yes, it was, Lyle...I mean, Clay. Can't resist recommending yet again Leo Kottke's version on his live record from Colorado.
	3:59pm V Priceless: actually, I wouldn't mind tracking down Hugh Banton's take on 'The Planets'
	4:00pm geezerette: oops! Yer right Dean. No more multi-tasking for me today!
	4:02pm coelacanth: lunch is inside me. back to work. Thanks Scott! -till then y'all.
	4:04pm Dean: Patrick Gleeson did a synthesizer version in '76: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrHWBeTgU9g Why did I think Gleeson had worked with Jefferson Airplane?
	4:05pm slugluv1313: fascinating pre-Chilliwack history! i recall seeing their first LP when i was a kid in the early 1970s & being intrigued by the cover art! but really knew nothing of their music i was not even aware that "My Girl" as interpreted on SCTV by The Recess Monkeys for The Pre-Teen World marathon was a Chilliwack song until years later! www.youtube.com...
	4:12pm Sem Chumbo: Thx, slugluv1313. Forgot about that SCTV thing.Great!
	4:17pm Rich in Washington: i didn't know La Jetée had a soundtrack release. Oh yeah. Superior Viaduct.
	4:17pm Rich in Washington: @slugluv1313: I had forgotten about Pre-Teen World. Excellent!
	4:19pm Scott Williams: yeah, it's not exactly a soundtrack - they've just put the entire 28 minutes worth of audio onto vinyl (and the audio stands alone nicely! - kinda like David Lynch's "The Grandmother")
	4:23pm Rich in Washington: I can think of a few movies that just the audio alone is album-worthy.
	4:24pm V Priceless: Neil's solo even funnier slowed-down! Ha!
	4:24pm Carmichael: Yay, Canyons of Your Mind.
	4:24pm Lewis: brilliant!
	4:25pm Cecile: I had forgetten about the Recess Monkeys! What a hilariously brilliant cover
	4:25pm John McGreivey: 45 @33: dragging out the goodness? dragging out the pain?
	4:25pm Lewis: in the section labeled shirts
	4:27pm slugluv1313: yay Recess Monkeys! yay Pre-Teen World! glad you all enjoy :) so much of SCTV absolutely brilliant & priceless!
	4:27pm Cecile: Clay: Aldo Nova?
	4:30pm Anonymous Coward: La Jetée is almost all still shots with narration anyway. I don't think there's any dialog. Good film.
	4:31pm Cecile: nice! that was a great version
	4:32pm steve: yep googling
	4:33pm Cecile: Slugluv, I rewatched the SCTV Richard Harris MacArthur Park, it still cracks me the hell up.
	4:33pm V Priceless: Ozzy is missing
	4:34pm Rich in Washington: @Cecile: "Who threw that brick!!"
	4:35pm Cecile: I heard. Sharon booted him out of the house.
	4:35pm Cecile: hahahahh. I know. "I go there to pick up girls"
	4:35pm Rich in Washington: I still can't hear that horn passage without seeing Harris/Thomas frugging frantically.
	4:36pm Cecile: I know!
	4:37pm Cecile: and the girl reading the book onstage.
	4:38pm slugluv1313: @ Cecile -- excellent! (omg! subconsciously "stealing" from "Pre-Teen World"?!) i was just thinking of John Candy's amazing Johnny LaRue character, esp. his "work-out" program, hah!
	4:39pm Cecile: I know!
	4:41pm Polyus: This is wonderful.
	4:42pm Clay: Cecile ... I thought my old band (Theatre) opened for Aldo Nova in '81 at the Lansing Civic Auditorium, but that was Aldo and Sammy Hagar. We opened for April Wine there in 1982! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPQgfaB3S1c
	4:46pm Cecile: they're breaking into that warehouse to free INXS from their Don't Change vid, but INXs already left.
	4:49pm steve: schools out! im back in wfmu land and will not turn the stream off for the next 4 months... :DDD
	4:49pm Clay: Cecile ... good one! Ha! Love that Aldo song.
	4:51pm Cecile: only in the early 80s could a guy named Aldo, with a little bit of a singing/speech impediment and a leopard jumpsuit enjoy the North American dream.
	4:53pm Chris from DC: Nice one.
	4:54pm Cecile: Mr. Blooper!
	4:56pm Cecile: All the women sound like Scott Thompson from Kids in the Hall
	4:57pm Clay: @Cecile - So true!
	5:00pm JakeGould: The care and handling of my privates.
	5:05pm Cecile: era um animal bebê
	5:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I haz vino tinto. leftover pizza, done w/ work & SW show. Lucky luckiness.
	5:11pm Michael 98145: appears to be time dilation day
	5:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...☿Mercury & most other planets Retrograde. Typos galore, Monday machine didn't run @ werk - play all @ wrong speeds & Happy Fire Munkey...
	5:20pm Meat Loaf: Buffering like a bat out of hell over here.
	5:25pm Scott Williams: Hey Meat, maybe due to Time Warner cable outages? patch.com...
	5:26pm Cecile: no, because I'm at work and it's buffering a little, too.
	5:27pm Scott Williams: our Jeff said earlier: "...we've been having some network issues somewhere. Looking into it."
	5:31pm Industry Insider: One thing's for certain, if things can be rectified, Jeff Moore will rectify them. He is ... The Rectifier. Hell of a man.
	5:31pm Michael 98145: freeform seems to be freeflowing right now
	5:35pm steve: nice
	5:35pm Davis: this one really has it at 33, i have tried this one!
	5:38pm Davis: i played the album at 16 to be truthful, but... similar thing
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...sounds like he's deconstructing 'Valeri' by The Monkees...every guitarist is relieved by this stuff that they aren't the only loony who indulges in it...
	5:53pm Michael 98145: wow, i have NEVER heard this cover before now
	5:53pm Davis: me neither-
	5:53pm khd: yeah, that's a hell of a cover...thanks for the heads up
	5:55pm Scott Williams: if you wanna be bummed way the hell out, watch the GC doc "I'll Be Me".
	5:55pm Michael 98145: i still mostly have Nico's version in my head ...
	5:56pm frenchee: so good and mournful that GC cover.
	5:56pm Davis: me too
	5:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah wow version. Jackson Browne musta been a teen when he wrote that...
	5:57pm Davis: blimey, old men from every direction!
	5:57pm Scott Williams: yeah JB was 16 when he wrote it. pass for life
	5:58pm Davis: it's Nico's though!
	5:58pm sinister dexter: love this song ..... hey didn't Joe play it this morning? .....
	5:59pm Michael 98145: great sets, thank you
	5:59pm Lyle: Glen Campbell? I remember him as a young tow-headed boy we called "Soupy." This was back circa 1957 when I was on the road with Esquivel in my only gig as a bass trianglist. Soupy was a strong boy - a hay-baler, I was told, and it was he who helped me bring the triangle in from the bus. A bass triangle, in case you didn't know, can weigh upwards to 75-80lbs. Esquivel thought it added additional exotica "zing" to his shows, but the logistical nightmare of dragging it (and me!) from gig to gig had Esky kicking me to the curb by early '59. His career was in the tank by then anyway. I gace Soupy 35-cents for helping me, which was a fortune back then. I think he bought a comb with it.
	5:59pm Scott Williams: thanks everyone! Yeah Joe prob played it this AM - that's OK! see you next week!

	9:13am raga: "Hold Your Head Up" started out like "Argent Outside the Dream Syndicate". I predict next week's show title as "Not a Big Crier".

	3:47pm coelacanth: oh i thought it was my pre-historic computer.
	3:48pm Anonymous Coward: Its liz
	3:48pm Jeff: Nope, we've been having some network issues somewhere. Looking into it. And yeah, it's Liz who talks over that.
	3:51pm Lyle: You got that right Coel-o! Ha! Actually, I am a member of Holst's fan club - The Holsters, named in honor of his penchant for full-bore, aluminum Luger pistols which he loved to shoot during performances, at large, blown-up Man Ray photographs. Those two had a real beef, evidently. I've been told that David Hasselhoff is actually the son of Holst, and that Hasselhoof is presently scoring "The Janets," a three-movement symphony based on the lives of Janet Jackson - Janet Funicello (Annette's sister) and Janet Reno. We'll see how THAT turns out! L
	3:51pm Dean: Wow, Chilliwack did "Arms of Mary"!
	3:53pm Dean: I call b.s., Lyle. Holst has no fans.
	3:53pm coelacanth: haha!
	3:54pm V Priceless: yeah, and Pluto's not a planet anymore, so there!
	3:55pm Dean: Actually, the mini-opera Savitri is kind of cool.
	3:55pm geezerette: Headsign? what?
	3:56pm coelacanth: "the 3 Janets"... i had (have?) a pandora station i named "the Saints Louis". Louie Prima, Louis Jordan, Louis Armstrong. -'seems like a better match.
	3:56pm Dean: You're thinking "kopf," geezerette. "Klopf" means "knock."
	3:56pm Clay: Arms of Mary? That was Sutherland Brothers and Quiver, to be featured on CC8! Scott, glad you got the Bufferin account!
	3:57pm Dean: Yes, it was, Lyle...I mean, Clay. Can't resist recommending yet again Leo Kottke's version on his live record from Colorado.
	3:59pm V Priceless: actually, I wouldn't mind tracking down Hugh Banton's take on 'The Planets'
	4:00pm geezerette: oops! Yer right Dean. No more multi-tasking for me today!
	4:02pm coelacanth: lunch is inside me. back to work. Thanks Scott! -till then y'all.
	4:04pm Dean: Patrick Gleeson did a synthesizer version in '76: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrHWBeTgU9g Why did I think Gleeson had worked with Jefferson Airplane?
	4:05pm slugluv1313: fascinating pre-Chilliwack history! i recall seeing their first LP when i was a kid in the early 1970s & being intrigued by the cover art! but really knew nothing of their music i was not even aware that "My Girl" as interpreted on SCTV by The Recess Monkeys for The Pre-Teen World marathon was a Chilliwack song until years later! www.youtube.com...
	4:12pm Sem Chumbo: Thx, slugluv1313. Forgot about that SCTV thing.Great!
	4:17pm Rich in Washington: i didn't know La Jetée had a soundtrack release. Oh yeah. Superior Viaduct.
	4:17pm Rich in Washington: @slugluv1313: I had forgotten about Pre-Teen World. Excellent!
	4:19pm Scott Williams: yeah, it's not exactly a soundtrack - they've just put the entire 28 minutes worth of audio onto vinyl (and the audio stands alone nicely! - kinda like David Lynch's "The Grandmother")
	4:23pm Rich in Washington: I can think of a few movies that just the audio alone is album-worthy.
	4:24pm V Priceless: Neil's solo even funnier slowed-down! Ha!
	4:24pm Carmichael: Yay, Canyons of Your Mind.
	4:24pm Lewis: brilliant!
	4:25pm Cecile: I had forgetten about the Recess Monkeys! What a hilariously brilliant cover
	4:25pm John McGreivey: 45 @33: dragging out the goodness? dragging out the pain?
	4:25pm Lewis: in the section labeled shirts
	4:27pm slugluv1313: yay Recess Monkeys! yay Pre-Teen World! glad you all enjoy :) so much of SCTV absolutely brilliant & priceless!
	4:27pm Cecile: Clay: Aldo Nova?
	4:30pm Anonymous Coward: La Jetée is almost all still shots with narration anyway. I don't think there's any dialog. Good film.
	4:31pm Cecile: nice! that was a great version
	4:32pm steve: yep googling
	4:33pm Cecile: Slugluv, I rewatched the SCTV Richard Harris MacArthur Park, it still cracks me the hell up.
	4:33pm V Priceless: Ozzy is missing
	4:34pm Rich in Washington: @Cecile: "Who threw that brick!!"
	4:35pm Cecile: I heard. Sharon booted him out of the house.
	4:35pm Cecile: hahahahh. I know. "I go there to pick up girls"
	4:35pm Rich in Washington: I still can't hear that horn passage without seeing Harris/Thomas frugging frantically.
	4:36pm Cecile: I know!
	4:37pm Cecile: and the girl reading the book onstage.
	4:38pm slugluv1313: @ Cecile -- excellent! (omg! subconsciously "stealing" from "Pre-Teen World"?!) i was just thinking of John Candy's amazing Johnny LaRue character, esp. his "work-out" program, hah!
	4:39pm Cecile: I know!
	4:41pm Polyus: This is wonderful.
	4:42pm Clay: Cecile ... I thought my old band (Theatre) opened for Aldo Nova in '81 at the Lansing Civic Auditorium, but that was Aldo and Sammy Hagar. We opened for April Wine there in 1982! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPQgfaB3S1c
	4:46pm Cecile: they're breaking into that warehouse to free INXS from their Don't Change vid, but INXs already left.
	4:49pm steve: schools out! im back in wfmu land and will not turn the stream off for the next 4 months... :DDD
	4:49pm Clay: Cecile ... good one! Ha! Love that Aldo song.
	4:51pm Cecile: only in the early 80s could a guy named Aldo, with a little bit of a singing/speech impediment and a leopard jumpsuit enjoy the North American dream.
	4:53pm Chris from DC: Nice one.
	4:54pm Cecile: Mr. Blooper!
	4:56pm Cecile: All the women sound like Scott Thompson from Kids in the Hall
	4:57pm Clay: @Cecile - So true!
	5:00pm JakeGould: The care and handling of my privates.
	5:05pm Cecile: era um animal bebê
	5:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I haz vino tinto. leftover pizza, done w/ work & SW show. Lucky luckiness.
	5:11pm Michael 98145: appears to be time dilation day
	5:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...☿Mercury & most other planets Retrograde. Typos galore, Monday machine didn't run @ werk - play all @ wrong speeds & Happy Fire Munkey...
	5:20pm Meat Loaf: Buffering like a bat out of hell over here.
	5:25pm Scott Williams: Hey Meat, maybe due to Time Warner cable outages? patch.com...
	5:26pm Cecile: no, because I'm at work and it's buffering a little, too.
	5:27pm Scott Williams: our Jeff said earlier: "...we've been having some network issues somewhere. Looking into it."
	5:31pm Industry Insider: One thing's for certain, if things can be rectified, Jeff Moore will rectify them. He is ... The Rectifier. Hell of a man.
	5:31pm Michael 98145: freeform seems to be freeflowing right now
	5:35pm steve: nice
	5:35pm Davis: this one really has it at 33, i have tried this one!
	5:38pm Davis: i played the album at 16 to be truthful, but... similar thing
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...sounds like he's deconstructing 'Valeri' by The Monkees...every guitarist is relieved by this stuff that they aren't the only loony who indulges in it...
	5:53pm Michael 98145: wow, i have NEVER heard this cover before now
	5:53pm Davis: me neither-
	5:53pm khd: yeah, that's a hell of a cover...thanks for the heads up
	5:55pm Scott Williams: if you wanna be bummed way the hell out, watch the GC doc "I'll Be Me".
	5:55pm Michael 98145: i still mostly have Nico's version in my head ...
	5:56pm frenchee: so good and mournful that GC cover.
	5:56pm Davis: me too
	5:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah wow version. Jackson Browne musta been a teen when he wrote that...
	5:57pm Davis: blimey, old men from every direction!
	5:57pm Scott Williams: yeah JB was 16 when he wrote it. pass for life
	5:58pm Davis: it's Nico's though!
	5:58pm sinister dexter: love this song ..... hey didn't Joe play it this morning? .....
	5:59pm Michael 98145: great sets, thank you
	5:59pm Lyle: Glen Campbell? I remember him as a young tow-headed boy we called "Soupy." This was back circa 1957 when I was on the road with Esquivel in my only gig as a bass trianglist. Soupy was a strong boy - a hay-baler, I was told, and it was he who helped me bring the triangle in from the bus. A bass triangle, in case you didn't know, can weigh upwards to 75-80lbs. Esquivel thought it added additional exotica "zing" to his shows, but the logistical nightmare of dragging it (and me!) from gig to gig had Esky kicking me to the curb by early '59. His career was in the tank by then anyway. I gace Soupy 35-cents for helping me, which was a fortune back then. I think he bought a comb with it.
	5:59pm Scott Williams: thanks everyone! Yeah Joe prob played it this AM - that's OK! see you next week!

	9:13am raga: "Hold Your Head Up" started out like "Argent Outside the Dream Syndicate". I predict next week's show title as "Not a Big Crier".
