	10:05am JakeGould: Is asking if Glenn Branca is Jazz some kind of new noise hipster meme?
	10:06am Polyus: Day 2 of having Circle In The Sand by Belinda Carlisle stuck in my head. Maybe the heavy jazz rock will finally be the thing to dislodge it? It's like a bad case of the hiccups, I've tried everything.

The group broke up soon thereafter."
	👻 10:36am karlward: Wait a minute, isn't this a cover of the John Mayer song of the same name?

JA In The AM with John Allen: Playlist from May 18, 2018

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.)
