Three Chord Monte with Joe Belock

Listener comments!

12:01pm mariano:

Hey Joe, everyone... Broadcasting from home, you in the studio, or is this an archive?

12:01pm Handy Haversack:

Hiya, Joe, Past Joe, Montebanks, and all the rekkuhdd-buying public!

12:01pm David (in London):

Hey Joe. Hello fellow Belockers. I wanna be free to stay in without being hassled by the Man.

👻

12:03pm Artie:

Working from home and tuning in Live today. Hey Joe!

12:03pm Joe B:

sorry, an archive, from Oct 1, 2018. have no home gear and obviously can't go to the station

12:03pm Handy Haversack:

I thought two apple slices were one apple slice and poorly distributed the peanut butter -- damn this world!!

(I think Joe McG said this was an archive show.)

12:04pm JakeGould:

Hey Joe! Good to see you here anyway.

12:04pm David (in London):

Handy, I have permission from HMG to send an emergency sandwich team to help you.

12:04pm Woo:

It's new to me.

👻

12:05pm Artie:

Ah, bummer. In for the duration anyway. Stay safe, Joe!

12:05pm Handy Haversack:

David, if you hold me in any regard at all, you will make sure the bring Branston Pickle with them!!

12:06pm Jeff Formerly from Rahway:

I have some cassette recordings of mid-90s WFMU shows if this pandemic drags on.

12:07pm osvi:

Working from home means WFMU is on 24/7! Keep those beats coming, Joe!

12:07pm Rich in Washington:

Holy crap! I've never heard Ye Nuns before! Incredible!

12:08pm Owlex:

when i worked at petco before i had a smart phone i would record fmu ususlly liz's show and put in on whle we were stocking

12:08pm David (in London):

Handy, they are fully equipped with a cold box of the complete range - big chunk, small chunk, chill, beetroot. Have no fear, your sandwich is their priority.

12:08pm Owlex:

all the tapes are lost or gone now though

12:10pm Owlex:

i miss liz

12:10pm Handy Haversack:

Almost as good, David: just had an intense sense memory of an Orkney cheddar and homemade pickled onion sandwich I had in Callander in ... 2015, I think. Very satisfying!

12:11pm Danny now in Poughkeepsie:

I miss Bronwyn C

12:13pm Stevel:

Old Joe B is better than no Joe B!

12:13pm Owlex:

thats what the archives are for i guess

12:14pm Charbird:

Great archive show, love the Big Heads! Greetings everyone from CA!

12:14pm mariano:

No sorries, Joe, and thanks for being on the Accu - best thing any of us can do is stay in place till the medical community has a better handle on things, so you're doing the right thing. And your archives rawk!

12:14pm Threemoons:

Greetings...

12:15pm David (in London):

Old Joe B - Surely someone must have written an Appalachian folk song about him?

12:15pm Micheal:

Dramarama - underrated underdogs - thanks for the rock and roll.

12:15pm Handy Haversack:

Yeah, this sounds great already, Joe! And 2018 was before I decided to stand up for my sanity and just leave WFMU on at work all day!

12:15pm mariano:

Oooold man Belock, he just keeps rockin'...

12:16pm Handy Haversack:

(This one got a "who is THIS?" from Kate as she works out a few feet away!)

12:16pm steveo:

Hey Joe B. I wish there could be baseball. Isn't there an island with 20 baseball stadiums where the teams could all go live and play for a while?

12:17pm full metal monkey:

Hello all. Forgot about Dramarama. Cool song

12:17pm Joe Belock:

me too steveo - opening day was to be this thursday i think

12:18pm John from Florham park:

Hello fellow 3 chord Monty listeners

12:18pm Crudbringer:

hey JFFP!

12:19pm David (in London):

mariano - I could hear the full Paul Robeson there. Good call.

12:19pm coelacanth∅:

greetings Joe and all

12:20pm Joe B:

thanks everybody for tuning in, and hanging in, appreciate it.

12:20pm Handy Haversack:

Yeah, Yankees opener was going to be while I was in Wisconsin playing games with my friends this weekend. Sigh.

I'd love to see that island one day, @steveo.

12:20pm John from Florham park:

@Crudbringer howdy
@DIL howdy
@Handy howdy see your desperate for a good sandwich, and I hope kate feels better

12:21pm Handy Haversack:

Better and better, @John -- thanks!

12:21pm Joe B:

well, now another level of my incompetence is exposed as I am still struggling to keep up with the playlist on an old show!

12:21pm coelacanth∅:

Thanks for joining on the board Joe and Thanks to Scott or whomever is doing the playlist at the station.

12:22pm Handy Haversack:

Do you have to type each one in still, @Joe?

12:22pm mariano:

At your soivice, @DavidIL. Hi @JohnFFP, @Handy, @coela, anybody I missed!

12:23pm steveo:

no worries Joe. We'll be OK. :)

12:23pm Joe B:

yeah, the idea is to keep a new live playlist, with a main reason to keep the community going on here.

12:23pm coelacanth∅:

you're filling in the playlist from home?
i thought there were playlist faeries at the station for that

12:23pm John from Florham park:

@Joe b better then watching or listening too the news

12:24pm full metal monkey:

While the world is on pause, WFMU just keeps pumping out music. Thank God for that.

12:24pm Joe B:

I am doing the playlist from home. but someone legally and practically needs to be a board-op

12:24pm John from Florham park:

handy your welcome

12:24pm -Ken:

Hi all!

12:25pm Joe B:

agreed John FP

👻

12:25pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Yay, Skeleton Manager Ken!

12:25pm Baja Joe:

Hidey Ho Joe B!

12:25pm Handy Haversack:

Joe McG on BOARD OPS today?

Hiya, @-Ken!

12:25pm David (in London):

Hello Kenmeister. FMU is flying high in north London.

12:26pm David (in London):

Hey John. How did the photo shoot go?

12:26pm steveo:

good morning, Ken

12:26pm coelacanth∅:

hey mariano

12:26pm Woo:

How about a really old show next week, when the break music was from a bowling video game, was it?

12:26pm mariano:

Eeek! It's Ken - everybody look busy!

12:26pm Joe B:

Handy, not sure

12:26pm Phillippe Bastille:

Howdy

12:27pm βrian:

Kitty's here, so now I have two laptops.

12:27pm Joe B:

Woo we'll see, good idea

12:27pm Handy Haversack:

Hiya, @coela, Phillippe.

12:27pm mrmikestandsir:

12:28pm suzyhotrod:

12:28pm steveo:

12:29pm Joe B:

hi suzy!

12:29pm John from Florham park:

@-Ken is here everybody behave:)

12:29pm John from Florham park:

@Phillippe howdy

12:31pm V Priceless:

hey JB! stay safe!

12:32pm Phillippe Bastille:

@Handy @Steveo Wondering if MLB will go the route of NASCAR and broadcast a few computer games for our entertainment. The NASCAR thing went swimmingly -- a lot of fun for the serious fan and a good opportunity to pull in the curious. Was the top-trending topic on Twitter at one point yesterday.

12:32pm Phillippe Bastille:

Hey JFFP

12:32pm McGroovey:

The b-side of Cara is great, also, "Go It Alone".

12:33pm βrian:

Looks like we'll be getting our 'stay at home' order today, here in WI.

12:34pm Handy Haversack:

I am also hoping the ghost of Giancarlo Stanton takes this delay as a chance to recorporealize, @Phillippe!

I notice a lot of radio silence from my softball league ...

12:34pm Joe B:

McGroovey, yes great point!

12:35pm battleaxe:

@Phillippe MLB has released a bunch of classic games from years past on it's YouTube channel

12:35pm Lewis:

@ßrian - yup - I am teaching on campus and am already sequestered. At least the lake is open...

12:35pm Joe B:

I watched Game 1 of the 74 world series on youtube last night. great stuff

12:36pm Joe B:

hey VP, hope you are hanging in

12:36pm battleaxe:

No spoilers now Joe!!!!

12:36pm Lewis:

well of course I am NOT teaching on campus. I am learning all sorts of things that have nothing to do with course content and adapting to an asynchronous pedagogy...

12:37pm battleaxe:

'74 let me guess...A's and...

12:37pm Joe B:

dodgers

12:38pm battleaxe:

Rollie Fingers, Vida Blue, Ron Cey, Dusty Baker

12:39pm Joe B:

Dusty wasn't there yet. he was on the 77 and 78 teams that played the Yankees though

12:39pm David (in London):

Is this an homage to Matt Warwick?

12:39pm ParUbi:

I listened to WFMS with a growing sense of panic and disorientation until I realized my "smart speaker" misheard WFMU.

12:40pm steveo:

oh there's old games on youtube? cool will have to look some up

12:40pm Crudbringer:

Hey Suzy! My daughter quit derby, I'm a heartbroken derby dad...

12:40pm Joe B:

David, it is now!

12:41pm Handy Haversack:

Gotta do some tech finagling so Kate can do a video meeting. I *should* be able to jump back on in a few ...

12:41pm steveo:

@parubi country music is changing

12:42pm battleaxe:

It's great to see those old locker room celebrations where the player are actually drinking Bud out of a can as opposed to spraying Champagne everywhere.

12:42pm ParUbi:

@Steveo-- I heard the song, "I don't want to be a one man band" which wasn't terrible.

12:45pm Mark in Toronto:

Joe, you are killing it today (no, back then). How about last week the oldest show you can dig up, just to hear the difference (between then and now?)

12:45pm steveo:

i'm not sure which one that was; i'm glad you're reoriented, though

12:45pm mariano:

Be interesting to compile songs about famous women in history. There's Ann Boleyn, then, let's see... Television's Venus de Milo, John Cale's Helen of Troy. Anyone know any others?

12:46pm Mark in Toronto:

Wait I mean next week.

12:46pm Joe B:

Thanks Mark. good idea

12:47pm Phillippe Bastille:

@battleaxe I will give them a look!

12:47pm Dennis Diken:

yeah Joe!

12:47pm pinto bean:

Happy Birthday, Joe!

12:47pm listener 126464:

i'm a million miles away

12:48pm mariano:

It's your birthday, Joe? Well then happy birthday!

12:48pm Joe B:

It was my birthday on this show Oct 1

12:49pm ParUbi:

the Divine Comedy-- Catherine the Great

12:49pm Joe B:

@mariano leonard cohen - joan of arc

12:49pm PJ:

@mariano: There are probably dozens of songs about Margaret Thatcher.

Off the top of my head, Laughner's "Sylvia Plath", Nick Lowe's "Marie Provost", Stones' "Claudine", and a gazillion songs that reference Marilyn Monroe.

12:49pm Handy Haversack:

Hey, that's my dad's bday, too, Joe!

12:49pm Joe B:

and Cub Koda! and walter matthau and rod carew!

12:50pm Joe B:

hey Dennis!

12:50pm David (in London):

mariano - I think Weezer had a song about Cleopatra.

12:50pm Handy Haversack:

Hall of Famer Rod Carew!

12:51pm βrian:

@Lewis: yes, when I checked this morning, it was still listed as closed. How quickly things change.

12:51pm listener 126464:

did i win the rocktober?

12:51pm Woo:

In Rocktober we'll look back at this and...well, we'll look back.

12:53pm mariano:

Damn, @ParUbi, @PJ, @Joe, and @David, bringin' your A-game! I just thought "Her Majesty" (not sure though) and "Betty Davis Eyes" though I don't know if it counts because it's only her eyes. True about Thatcher: Elvis Costello's "Tramp the Dirt Down", probably a few by the Exploited. Ooh: Sun City Girls' "Nancy Reagan".

12:54pm Joe B:

english beat - stand down margaret

12:55pm Handy Haversack:

"Mother Knows Best," by Richard Thompson is also about Thatcher.

12:56pm David (in London):

Morrisey's 'Margaret on the Guillotine' too. She was a goddamn one-woman hit factory.

12:57pm Handy Haversack:

Kate's band has a song about Scaith, the legendary war queen of Skye who taught Cuchulainn the arts of war -- and love! We have been to her castle (well, vitrified fort).

12:58pm Handy Haversack:

Aluminum Group has "Tess D'Urbervilles," if we take a looser definition of history.

12:58pm David (in London):

Handy, 'Vitrified Fort'. Name of my new band etc etc.

12:59pm Handy Haversack:

The fort is called Dun Scaith -- also the name of our blue canoe!

12:59pm mariano:

As always, in awe of the AccuHiveMind - are we in fact the AccuBorg?

1:00pm Handy Haversack:

Would listen to rekkuhds about Borg Queen -- someone please create.

1:00pm listener 126464:

piggies!

1:01pm Handy Haversack:

Didn't someone make a song out of Frank O'Hara's "Lana Turner Has Collapsed"?

1:02pm DJ Dj Dj DJ DJ:

liVe! liVe ✓ liVe LiVe! liVe+

1:02pm mariano:

Hell yeah, @Handy - Alice Krige! Had such a crush on her in Ghost Story. Well, except for the parts where she'd become a mouldering corpse to scare someone to death.

1:03pm David (in London):

I'm happy to create a love song to Alice Krige, Handy. That wouldn't be difficult...

1:03pm listener 126464:

and Mike Sin(?)

1:03pm David (in London):

mariano - ha ha, us both it seems.

1:04pm John from Florham park:

@Parubi howdy

1:04pm Joe B:

This was the first insomniacs record without mike

1:04pm listener 126464:

thanks

1:05pm Handy Haversack:

@DIL: Consider yourself commissioned! Pickle is still our currency of choice?

1:06pm Dj Dj DJ Dj DJ dj:

Ibelieve there are playliSt faeries On the Station hHhaha

1:06pm mariano:

I saw her first, @DIL!

1:06pm Hubig Pie:

Late to the party- Clem Snide- Joan Jett of Ark

1:08pm mariano:

Nice, @Hubig - don't think I know that one. Definitely gonna make a playlist from all these.

1:09pm David (in London):

mariano - Hand to hand combat, Queensbury Rules, may the best slightly out-of-condition middle aged man win!

1:09pm Handy Haversack:

The Pogues, "Lorelei"? She MIGHT have been real!

Apparently, I'm stronger in fiction and folklore than in history this morning.

1:09pm Andy:

Nice! Love The Wog’s!

1:09pm Peter from Dover NJ:

Thank goodness for the FMU archives.... be safe everyone.

1:10pm Handy Haversack:

@mariano, DIL: Once you're assimilated, there is no rivalry. Only BORG.

1:11pm Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn:

Woggles! Gotta' get this record when the plague fades.

1:12pm mariano:

@DIL - I wish I were only *slightly* out of condition ;). We might have to swallow our pride and duel through Tekken or Mortal Kombat. Or wait, @Handy's right; we're nothing to her, just a couple of brain cells basically. Pfft.

1:12pm Joe B:

thanks peter

1:13pm Handy Haversack:

@October Joe: this set! Daaaaaaaamn! Sounds great!

1:14pm David (in London):

mariano - You know what? We're pals now, so I'm not going to let any creepily attractive, replaceable head Borg Queen come between us. I will stand aside.

1:14pm mrmikestandsir:

wow! I never knew there was a Prisoner themed song. Great quotes from the theme song. Be seeing you...

1:15pm mariano:

Wow, that's magnanimous, @DIL! I too relinquish my claim, let Capt Picard have her.

1:15pm Spankyflop:

Being stuck with archives isn't bad, maybe a good time to revisit some of the great live sessions.

1:16pm Handy Haversack:

First line of the manuscript I just started editing: "It is hard to find a basis for hope in the world today."

I mean, yeah, it is ... but maybe bury the lede a little!

1:16pm Joe B:

thanks Handy;

1:17pm Joe B:

good idea Spankyflop.

1:18pm mariano:

For real @Handy. No need for them to rub it in!

1:19pm Handy Haversack:

Damn, that song was so good.

1:20pm Joe B:

if you're just joining us this is an archived show from 2018, so none of this stuff I am yammering about is happening.

1:20pm Handy Haversack:

Ouch, Hank's.

1:21pm Handy Haversack:

Even the past isn't safe!

1:21pm mariano:

That is so irresponsible of those band to play gigs like that!

1:21pm ackthpfft:

@Joe: Yeah, but as Cock Sparrer asked, where are they now...

1:21pm John from Florham park:

@Joe b are you going to do s live shoe from a remote location next week?

1:22pm listener monica:

i guess i'm time-tripping. again.

1:22pm Joe B:

don't know yet

1:22pm John from Florham park:

I mean show my bad

1:23pm Chop Scott:

Hello Joe! Glad to be listening in the nest.

1:23pm John from Florham park:

@joe b gotcha

1:24pm David (in London):

Luckily this is where my kitchen-built tachyon time travel device comes in handy. I'll head off to those gigs now, enjoy them then report back here just before Joe announces them (again) here, but in the past. Everyone got that?

1:25pm Handy Haversack:

@DIL: Whilom om have had a good time. Bring pickle!

1:25pm Andy:

Is this an old show? What was the date?

1:26pm coelacanth∅:

yes what a week!

1:26pm sim:

What a week (whew!).

1:27pm Spankyflop:

I guess the 2020 record fair is a no go, huh?

1:27pm Handy Haversack:

10/1/18, I think, @Andy. Terrified to look back and see what lame things I ended up doing that week. But I guess these underwear weren't going to get drunk and pass out in themselves!

1:28pm Andy:

Aha! Got it. Thank you! “if you're just joining us this is an archived show from 2018, so none of this stuff I am yammering about is happening.”

1:28pm Joe B:

the record fair has been cancelled unfortunately

1:29pm mariano:

Careful @DIL - there were some bugs with the time-traveling microwave (don't know if NBC will play in the UK, if not, sorry): www.nbc.com...

1:29pm Gold Pants:

That event listing made me long for how things used to be....it was a simpler time! Sigh

1:29pm coelacanth∅:

(sounds like "she's got you" by Patsy Cline)

1:31pm coelacanth∅:

(...i wonder if anyone said that a year and a half ago)

1:35pm David (in London):

mariano - Ha ha! Thanks for the concern though mate, but I don't think I'll fall foul of any of those things. Davina (in Lubeck)

1:37pm ruth:

Hey there! It's ruth from Ridgewood Radio on the Drummer Stream just thought I'd pop in and swim with the dolphins over here.

1:38pm listener monica:

1:38pm coelacanth∅:

hey ruth!

1:38pm Handy Haversack:

You *sure* this song was chosen in 2018, Joe?

1:38pm Binky:

Lol nothing was delivered

1:39pm mariano:

Lol - Davina for the win!

1:39pm ruth:

Hiya Coel!

1:39pm Joe B:

sadly appropriate

1:40pm steveo:

Nothing is better. Nothing is best.

1:40pm Listener marianne:

Hi Joe, and all ! Great show, great Byrds!!

1:40pm doctorjazz:

Hi all.

1:42pm egould310:

Yeah for the Byrds. Good show, Joe.

1:44pm steveo:

each time i hear this set, i click a few more stars :)

1:44pm ackthpfft:

Great Stamey tune. Missed this one.

1:45pm David (in London):

That light background fiddle always gets me.

1:45pm coelacanth∅:

hey dr.j

1:45pm Mister Dobalina:

Cool track.

1:46pm coelacanth∅:

(i agree with them^)

1:47pm egould310:

This show is from 10/1/18? I know I was listening live to that show. I severely strained my hamstring on my morning run that day, and had to limp/hop home. Then, I had to drive to a client in Riverside, CA. My leg hurt so bad, I wanted to curl up on the floor of their office and cry. And I couldn’t get a cup of coffee anywhere in Riverside, so that sucked too.

1:48pm Cubicle Carl:

Three Chord Twangy

1:48pm Handy Haversack:

Another dynamite set.

1:49pm ackthpfft:

Finest kind of twangy.

1:49pm steveo:

(in fact, the stars are a good way to find out when a show originally aired, now that i think about it)

1:50pm coelacanth∅:

8 twang monte

1:51pm Mister Dobalina:

(comedy^)

1:51pm Cubicle Carl:

Heartache in Hell is my favorite track of the set so far.

1:52pm Mr. Pumpy:

This autotune is freaking me out

1:52pm ruth:

Hey Dr. J!

1:53pm David (in London):

Howdy Mr Pumpy!

1:53pm chris_in_space:

If I had to pick one Neil Young tune, it's "Albuquerque"

1:53pm Mr. Pumpy:

Nice...just tuned in and Neil is bringing the house down. Hello Everybody!

1:54pm steveo:

pete is overenthusiastic again, though

1:54pm Gold Pants:

No one says “roll a number” anymore

1:54pm Joe B:

egould, sorry to bring back the painful memories

1:55pm coelacanth∅:

i couldn't pick one Neil Young song. i'd have a tough time picking 20.

1:55pm Handy Haversack:

Hey, Mr. P!

1:56pm steveo:

when i grow up i want to be able to edit my own board posts haha

1:57pm listener monica:

you know who monica's real favorite band is?

1:58pm Mr. Pumpy:

Handy, David...howdy!

1:58pm coelacanth∅:

sorry, i love this song but not this version!

👻

1:59pm acid casualty:

Another sadly apprapo song.

1:59pm Cubicle Carl:

@ Mr. Pumpy re:autotune - yes I heard that. Wasn’t sure if it was autotune or just a digital artifact of my connection.

2:02pm Mr. Pumpy:

@Carl...I don't know, but I didn't hear it affecting anything but the voice. I only caught the tail end of the song, so maybe it was done for effect at one point. It was a bit jarring for my taste...life goes on!

2:02pm coelacanth∅:

i agree Mr.P. i heard that song from the kitchen and really liked it but then came in here and after a minute that sounded terrible.
the shame is i'd bet her real voice is great.

2:02pm mariano:

Hey Mr. Pumpy!

2:02pm coelacanth∅:

monica you know i want to say sock monkeys!

2:03pm Woo:

Some tasty guitar on this. Tasty.

2:03pm mariano:

There was a Jefferson Airplane documentary on Netflix some years ago where they played an amazing live version of High Flying Bird, amazing vocal chemistry between Grace and Marty.

2:03pm Mr. Pumpy:

Yo...mariano!

2:04pm Mr. Pumpy:

@coel...I concur...and sometimes conquer!

2:04pm steveo:

#12 hit that Runaway

2:05pm Handy Haversack:

Did I mention on this board that Jorma Kaukonen is my cousin?

2:06pm jillydg:

Hi Joe! That Jefferson Airplane hit the spot... You're prescient.

2:07pm mariano:

No way, @Handy - that's frickin' awesome!

👻

2:08pm acid casualty:

@hh. Did he teach u any licks?

2:08pm Paul D:

Hey guys thanks for DJing during this time!

2:09pm Joe B:

Handy that is great! do you know him?

2:09pm coelacanth∅:

Judy Henkse did the definitive version.
...the only good version i've ever heard. (out of maybe 6)

2:09pm mariano:

Speaking of the fortunes of Jefferson-affiliated singers, I saw a clip of them live from 2012 and Mickey Thomas was still belting out "Jane" like in the old days, same key, hitting all the high notes.

2:10pm Handy Haversack:

Came up on another board recently, @mariano. I have never actually met him, though my sisters met him several times. I was in good touch with his brother for quite a while, though less so lately. Their mom and my dad were really close when they were young -- her parents took in my dad for a while when he was orphaned.

But no, I don't really know him. I should reach out again.

@acid casualty: teaching me licks would be a waste of any talent's time!

2:11pm Joe B:

re high flying bird - i like the Crazy Horse version from 2012

2:11pm Phillippe Bastille:

@Handy off topic, but first snowy egret of the season (that I saw) just splashed down out back

2:12pm David (in London):

Handy, you can practice your licks once the Branston Pickle arrives.

2:14pm Handy Haversack:

Oh, COOL, @Phillippe! That's so great.

Branston Lickle, @DIL!

👻

2:15pm acid casualty:

I still regret not buying a 45 at the salvation army store 30 years ago entitled 'lick a pickle'

2:16pm Confusionist:

So correct me if this old fart got this wrong buuut last.fm had 'Runaway' credited to the Jefferson Airplane. Uh nope. That I believe is the Jefferson Starship. Yo that Marty Balin though!

2:16pm coelacanth∅:

Joe B i WILL check that one out!

2:17pm Joe B:

it's on the Neil Americana album

2:18pm listener 126464:

Jefferson Hospice

2:18pm coelacanth∅:

Confusionist it does sound like starship

2:19pm Joe B:

it is j starship, my bad on the autofill

2:24pm coelacanth∅:

Thanks Joe i've heard that high flying bird then...and i just looked at my (385-song long) Neil Young playlist and sure enough it's on there, bookmarked but i forgot to go back to it.
that'll happen later today though.

2:25pm WFMU listener WADE:

thanks for keeping the Mighty WFMU up and running

2:27pm Mr. Pumpy:

I thought this was Karate at first...but alas, the late, great Karl Hendricks. Solid.

2:30pm JakeGould:

I just had to attend a videoconference meeting. Before it started everyone just talked about what it was like where they were. Then the meeting started. People couldn’t get anything working. Then we all decided to reschedule the meeting for “later” since there’s no point now.

2:31pm Confusionist:

Yeah the Airplane and Starship gave off different vibes. I loved the Airplane and just came of age a minute too late to see them though went to many Hot Tuna shows and seen Jefferson Starship at the Hollywood Sportatorium in Florida 1975. Thanks for playing this because there are many gaps in my musical knowledge and I was totally turned off to the Starship after 'Red Octopus' and 'Dragonfly'. Thought they were very lame. Perhaps. But now I know better. Heart rending stuff as well. So thanks Joe! That's why WFMU can never die! Always something to delight and inform!

2:31pm JakeGould:

WFMU should host Zoom meetings discussing Jefferson Airplane/Starship.

2:31pm βrian:

I've had one video conference so far. It went fine and I was glad I remembered to to tape over my laptop camera.

2:32pm JakeGould:

But on the bright side, I am purely dealing with work and none of the office nonsense. So hey!

2:35pm Confusionist:

Love to hear a discussion about JA/JS. Maybe someone could jar this old acidhead's addled memory.

2:35pm βrian:

I do miss my 11 a.m. Tuesday morning meetings, though. They're really useful though we don't get much done.

2:36pm Confusionist:

Love to hear a discussion about JA/JS. Might help to jar this old acidhead's memory.

2:37pm David (in London):

Signing off for a bit now, but thanks (again) Joe, and see you some you groovers later for some Techt-on-ik.

2:38pm Phillippe Bastille:

cya DiL

2:38pm Handy Haversack:

L8r, David!

2:38pm Confusionist:

Not to mention my problem with this newfangled technology.

2:38pm coelacanth∅:

Confusionist to be honest volunteers is the cut-off for me. never heard anything by starship that wasn't boring at best and same goes for post-Balin airplane.
then there's the airplane album with Balin from the late 70s but it's mostly studio musicians so, predictably boring also. (even with Balin's beautiful voice)

2:39pm John from Florham park:

@DIL see ya later

2:40pm coelacanth∅:

haha! Joe

2:42pm coelacanth∅:

(^ i mean, late 80s)

2:44pm mariano:

Take care @DIL.

2:45pm Handy Haversack:

And the Borg Queen is yours, mariano -- if you dare!

2:47pm mariano:

Nyeh heh heh heh!

2:47pm Stevel:

Borzoi seems to be capturing the mood of the month.

2:48pm Don F.:

Hey Joe and 3 chord stay in place work at home rockers.

2:48pm Confusionist:

I think we could both agree to the beautiousness of Marty Balin's voice. But there are many gems after the Volunteers album. Check out 'Eat Starch Mom' from the 'Long John Silver' album. I think it's a doozy!
And c'mon Joe. Can't get down with the live version of 'Feel So Good' from 'Thirty Seconds Over Winterland'. Loved tripping to that along with Floyd's 'Echoes. Ah. Good times!

2:50pm schmitzzz:

thank you for the music - so glad i remembered to turn my radio on and got your show.

2:51pm John from Florham park:

@Brian was it because of what was played at 11am on Tuesday:)

2:53pm mariano:

Love me some Keith Morris.

2:53pm John from Florham park:

@Handy I have discovered on the accu boards there are great answers to questions you can get and great conversations at times

2:55pm Stevel:

Thought I heard Fleshies in there!

2:55pm Blues Mandinga:

Thanks for the music. Greetings from Bogotá, Colombia.

2:55pm mariano:

Oh wait, why have I been under the impression that Triclops! was a Keith Morris project?

2:56pm mariano:

Ohhh, wires crossed with Off! It's those damn exclamation points!

2:56pm Joe Belock:

not this triclops

2:56pm coelacanth∅:

i expect you're correct about that, there must be gems on those 2 "last" airplane albums. put into a different setting -not surrounded by the beating a dead horse rest of the album material. i will explore again.
...but times were changing things and had -not just with Balin's departure. the world changed. much more boring arenarock coming fast down the road at that point.

2:57pm Joe B:

thanks everybody for hanging in. appreciate it.

2:58pm steveo:

thanks, Joe!

👻

2:58pm Ken From Hyde Park:

It's a double ... a Joe Day and a Snow Day!

2:58pm mariano:

Thanks for hangin', Joe, and for providing the tunes! I'll take one of your archived shows any day. Y'all be safe now, hear?

2:59pm coelacanth∅:

this reminds me of mudhoney

2:59pm Handy Haversack:

Dang, 3 already! Thanks, Joe -- great job to October Joe for the tunes and Now Joe for hanging out. Means the world!

L8r, everyone!

3:00pm coelacanth∅:

oh, haha no wonder!

Thanks Joe! take care

3:00pm Phillippe Bastille:
