	9:30am John Allen: there we go maestroso! I keep telling people there is relevancy here to someone! by any chance is that CD boxed up somewhere in an extra room?
	9:34am Ike: Inspired by @Morgan's comment: Dear Alex, I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I couldn't see where you were going or what you were going for. This JFK's brain-in-a-jar thing didn't get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like James Holmes and Sirhan Sirhan like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long-winded WTC implosion stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that lizard man theory without a beat and sounds like someone's being pinched. Then you talk about the Boston Marathon bombing, I think you called it a false flag, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole intelligence agency psy-op thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that one about alien colonists though. I like Joe Belock a lot.
	9:35am Chris from DC: Ike FTW
	9:36am John Allen: I like Ann Coulter a lot.
	9:37am steveo: lol; i wonder what license they got. or maybe they'll just run pirate because government

	9:41am steveo: oh the chicago trump tower; didn't realize there was one there
	9:43am SSS: Alex Jones is rabid. Just getting oriented here.
	9:44am SSS: Rabid I tells ya!!
	9:45am maestroso: @John Allen - that CD is probably in a stack that i haven't looked through in a while. I'll have to dig it up.
	9:49am Polyus: Oh yay it's the longest, most pointless work day of the year.
	9:49am Chris from DC: Oh you got that right Polyus. My body is here, but that's about it.
	9:51am Polyus: I am patching cracks in the warehouse floor just to have something to do.
	9:51am steveo: half-day, baby </gloat>
	9:52am The weather report: The storm has made landfall and all the "cool kids" r Laughing
	9:55am steveo: i like what is happening here, in my ears
	9:58am rabid: tell clay pic. show show is alive and well house sitting in boogy Scarsdale...positive reversal of fortune for Christmas...its a paying gig as well
	👻 10:01am PKNY: Damn, Deon is smooooove.
	10:01am Mayor Frank: In 1989, this Deon Estus track ranked as high as - No. 89! - on the US charts. For your health...
	10:03am Polyus: He also played bass for George Michael! The more you know. . .
	👻 10:07am PKNY: @Polyus - did Deon play on "Careless Whisper"? I know I can look it up, but it would be so much cooler if you knew off the top of your head.
	10:08am John Allen: he played on the first couple GM solo recs, so probably...check out his past goes back to learning from motown dudes
	10:10am Polyus: @PKNY - I have to confess that I looked it up in the first place.
	👻 10:10am PKNY: When you have James Jamerson as your bass instructor...wow. Also see he played on Brainstorm's "Journey to the Light". Might be doing a deep Deon dive over the holidays!
	👻 10:11am PKNY: On the "guess who played on this" tip: I recently found out that Phil Collins played drums on much of Robert Plant's first solo albums. Definitely sounds like him on this track.
	10:12am steveo: nice; was just ranting on FB about "classic rock radio" and how those artists have such huge great catalogs that never get played...
	10:15am Morgan: john, it would rock my socks to hear something from that paradise lost rock opera by grant hart
	👻 10:20am PKNY: And just so we'll all well informed: Deon Estus did play on "Careless Whisper". You're welcome.
	10:20am Norm: I only come here when I want to hear something weird...mission nailed.

	10:50am Agent Peter: I thought Leo Sayer wrote this?
	10:51am TomDash: Ahhhh...looks like I tuned in just in rocket ship time...
	10:53am steveo: some of these lyrics give me chills tbh
	10:54am Vee_K: Payola B
	10:54am Lixiviated Life: Alvarius is my new life guru
	10:55am Norm: new to me it was fricking awesome
	10:55am SSS: Alvarius b sounds rabid, but he is on my side
	10:56am Passaic River Blues: I actually bought the Alvarius B record as a Chrimbus gift for my dad. I am weak and FMU's flogging of "Zion" totally worked.
	👻 10:56am Ken From Hyde Park: Diane Kamikaze = Voivod Professor Dum Dum = Mercyful Fate Matt Warwick = Felder John Allen = Alvarius B

JA In The AM with John Allen: Playlist from December 22, 2017

View John Allen's profile

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)
