Listener comments!
	6:07am fred: Good morning Nate
	6:38am Sem Chumbo: Hello, and good morning, Nate, fred.
	6:39am Nate K.: Morning, Sem and Fred, and everyone else out there lurking. Welcome.
	6:43am Stanley: I lead the lurkers
	7:05am Sem Chumbo: finally, enough cowbell.
	7:10am Stanley: I love them teenage existential angst songs
	7:13am Nate K.: @Stanley, indeed, they are a fundamental of rock 'n' roll in many ways. Prog tried to kill 'em but couldn't quite pull it off.
	7:17am Stanley: Slade sounding quite retsrained on that
	7:21am fred: Prog always seemed more like a college-age thing to me, not really teenager music
	7:25am Stanley: Funny you say that, fred my first 'serious' musical purchase was an ELP album but I suppose it depends, as it did with me, on who's influence I was under at the time.
	7:31am fred: Well, I wouldn't use myself as an example either: the first LP I bought with my "own" money was The Wall, and my college years were focused on hip-hop, Riot Grrrl, and Ryuichi Sakamoto
	7:33am Sem Chumbo: Court of the Crimson King for me, though didn't have any idea about its prog designation. Heard it a party and associated it with the thing under the influence of which I was at the time.
	7:33am DonJuanTijuana: Hi Nate & Pyros
	7:37am Stanley: Sure, Sem and in the beginning it was very much a formula of long hair + pot = prog (preferably lying down) but I managed to adapt the formula later on, short hair + pot = punk (definitely standing up)
	7:38am Stanley: (and hair was where's it at)
	7:38am Sem Chumbo: hahha, Stanley, well said.
	7:38am fred: Yeah, lying down at a punk show would get you trampled
	7:46am dale: dig this nuggets-y set.
	8:08am Sissophonic Cheryl: Good morning Nate! Loving this one! Next time I see you I have a John Fahey story for you.
	8:09am Joe stalvey: Digging the dunes this morning. Nice mix.
	8:10am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @ a Metally show - occured to me Metalheads stay rooted - stake out a territory & bang heads, it's all percussion really - whereas you expect Punks to be all over the place...I remember being in SantaBarbara, & a show w/ locals Toad the Wet Sprocket - R.E.M.~Smiths-y AltFolkRawk - & all the locals in the club sat down, right where they were...& listened. I thot - wow - this is kinda the concert I always wanted to be @...Always think of Jazz 'Swinging' - side to side & as Duke Ellington says is a film - you don't even snap yer fingers right on the beat for fear of being too forward - whereas Rawk - Rawks - back&forth, shaking a fist perhaps. We like to be Eclectic, but then different Rhythms & Genres are completely different ways of going thru the world... This isn't Brian Ferry??
	8:12am kev: hi burners,tuned in late sorry to miss Lee and frosty 1st album I bought with my own dough was John Wesley Harding. 1st 45 hey little girl syndicate of sound
	8:14am Nate K.: Hi, folks, thanks for the kind words. Cheryl, can't wait to hear it.
	8:15am KP: Happy bleak Sunday, Nate
	8:16am fred: @RevRab: On Friday I saw Mohammad, it was too crowded for people to sit, though it would have made sense for this loud and low drone. I never expected this show to be sold out. I take it as a good sign
	8:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Kewl ones kev! I was a little brother - so I can't sort what I was spoonfed, copious hand-me-downs, B-Day gifts, & finally my own purchases..notable 45s were just 'around' - but I don't remember ever buying a 45 new, once I thot about it! 1st LP of my own I got New w/ shrinkwrap & all might have been 'Let It Be' from the bargain bin for a B-Day. Buying TheWh♂'s 1st album on my own was important - probably from the $1.99 also, but no idea which was 1st... A brave bandname fred! Taking the mountain to Mohammad, as it were...
	8:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: They did that in the local drunk tank! : lightintheattic.net...
	8:24am fred: @RevRab: They're from Greece: mmmd.eu
	8:27am kev: Tues was record release day remember waiting on line to get volunteers and clear light in mono oh to go back to '69
	8:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I wonder how much touring all of Europe is like going across the U.S. The latter is proverbially like dissolving into nothing in something vast. - It only just stopped being Tue.s pretty recently, yeah?
	8:29am fred: I really liked the Aquarian Blood track. Looks like they're not likely to tour nearby though, sigh
	8:29am kev: I wonder if that record store is still in ridgewood nj?
	8:30am Sem Chumbo: @kev: if you manage, please have a look around for my beaded headband. Lost it somewhere back there... Though the hair itself is scattered to the four winds.
	8:32am DonJuanTijuana: My 1st 2 LP purchases were The Clown Died in Marvin Gardens by the Beacon Street Union & an LP I still dig, GFR- On Time
	8:33am kev: @Sem I'll keep an eye out tho I haven't been back since'71 some times it floats up here to NH maybee
	8:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: NH represent!
	8:35am kev: beacon st union is fun
	8:36am kev: getting 18" today powder,Thx my knees are still good
	8:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Some bit of writing I wish I could find again - about TheShaggs & the NH 'music scene' w/ bands of just the wrong decade or something - said NH isn't behind the times so much as just out of the loop...that's why these people are up here I guess.
	8:38am Sem Chumbo: @kev: envy, knees here now titanium reinforced.
	8:43am kev: pretty good hardcore scene my son plays and of course the Celtic and contra dance circuit rules
	8:47am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @kev: It's probably less true now - there are good bands. Still - marvel how the crap radio station in the town I grew up in hasn't changed...people into the awful part of the 80s I hated even then - that sort of thing generally...
	8:51am kev: @rev agreed journey turned me into a punk I don't listen to com radio I listen to college over air and wfmu on line Thx Nate I love this show long live garage
	8:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Smokin' sets yas.
	8:55am Sem Chumbo: Burned it down real good, Nate. Thanks for the spins. See you, and the Burners, next time.
	8:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Whut - awlready ?! Thx NateK !!

View Nate K.'s profile

Music for the revolution in my head: choogling punks; power pop, both skinny-tied and long-haired; soul shouters and girl groups; bubblegum and acid rock; global fuzz; weirdos and outsiders, and the Weirdos and the Outsiders; Archie Shepp and J. Geils. Plus, live bands.

Fri. Dec 27th, 9pm - Midnight: Count It Down: The Burn It Down! Best of 2024 Special (More info...)
Nate the K. looks back on some of his favorite LPs, EPs, singles, reissues, and archival releases from the year that was. Tracks will be played in no particular order, because to paraphrase Michael Shelley and Hot Chocolate, respectively, they're all number one hits and everyone's a winner, baby...that's no lie.
