	🎸 ♥ 9:22am Threemoons: And yeah Stereolab tends to make anything better.

	9:31am duke: I like these random pulls
	9:36am Fernando P.: @testingwithfire Curitiba is great for sure. Used to live there until I moved to the mountains two months ago. Curitiba is the greenest metropolis in Brazil. Used to be known as the environmental capital of Brazil. has the best coffee also.
	9:37am Michael Shelley: Joe, how is the new bin looking? Are labels still sending CDs at the usual rate?
	9:39am Snoochienucci: Nice! I played a show with Jeffery Lewis a few months ago at index art center in Newark! Hes a super nice guy
	♥ 9:39am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe & all! New Jeff Lewis is fucking GREAT! He's a guy I just take for granted and really shouldn't.
	♥ 9:39am Joe McG: @Michael: No, I think everyone has slowed down. But there's still some stuff coming in, thank goodness!
	9:41am Special Monkey: I have a rare (I think) Stereolab CD from an art show in SoHo for the Amorphous Body Center from 1995, I think it was re-released, and then included in rarities. www.discogs.com... The Extension Trip is nice.
	9:41am p20: Love this new Jeffrey Lewis! Thanks Joe.
	9:42am John in Bklyn: Joe, if you have a sec, what was that bed music? Sounded so familiar.
	9:42am Lixiviated Life: Joey McG Thanks for "My Girlfriend Dosen't Worry" It will be my mantra for today, (although my wife may become suspicious)
	♥ 9:43am Handy Haversack: This is great. Good call, Greg!
	♥ 9:43am karlward: That's it, I'm going to call all the music I make "disco-fancy" from now on.
	♥ 9:44am Brian in UK: Joe, is there anything new due out from The Sixths?
	9:47am johnk77: viking ship w/stereolab carved in bow?;>

	♥ 9:48am Handy Haversack: Disco-fancy really lost its way after the TV incident.
	♥ 9:49am karlward: Question 1: Do you think it was a chicory flower?
	♥ 9:49am Matt Fiveash: You know, I couldn't tell at first if this was Hoof & Mouth or the Slapp Happy original. I guess this is bragging, but I don't care: we sound fucking good!
	♥ 9:49am karlward: Question 2: Was it delicious?
	♥ 9:49am Matt Fiveash: Sorry for cursing
	9:50am Snoochienucci: Love that version
	♥ 9:51am Joe McG: @Matt Fiveash: Like the goddamned Velvet Underground!
	♥ 9:51am pantz: You do sound fucking good, @Matt!
	9:51am John in Bklyn: Thanks, Joe! It sounded Ramsey Lewis-ish with horns. ?? I could always Shazam it.
	♥ 9:51am LastWhiteRhino: Sing it Jo Jo !
	9:52am βrian: It's a bit strange to sign off with Joe and then sign on with Joe. WFMU never sleeps.
	♥ 9:53am Webhamster Henry: Jojo was going to play here in Kingston, of course cancelled.
	♥ 9:53am Joe McG: @Brian: I actually did all the shows this weekend, Brian. You missed it!
	♥ 9:53am holland oats: laura palmer you say
	9:54am Bill W: this is the most Jonathan cover
	9:54am βrian: All work and no play, makes for a distinctive odor profile.
	9:54am Toothgrinder Tom: I like Jonathan Richman as much as anyone but this is almost painful.
	♥ 9:55am karlward: This song killed Laura Palmer
	♥ 9:56am Joe McG: I love that Jojo's idea of romancing this girl was to sing "Kumbaya" to her.
	9:56am davefromtoronto: agreed...
	♥ 9:56am Handy Haversack: Joe does an excellent Fool's Paradise.
	9:56am p20: @Toothgrinder Tom: "Almost"?
	♥ 9:57am Greg from ZONE 5: YES! MORE JEFF!
	9:57am βrian: I like that he preserves the "H" in Kumabaya.
	9:57am Snoochienucci: love this one! lyrics are great
	9:57am Sketch: Every time I hear this I think it's Atom and His Package
	♥ 9:58am dei xhrist: This LPs song makes me want to crack open my Whole Earth Catalog
	9:59am Snoochienucci: that "crown of creation" shout out is amazing
	♥ 9:59am Andrew_in_WI: This is the cartoonist, right?
	9:59am Crei6hton: Morning!
	♥ 10:02am Handy Haversack: "Whom."
	♥ 10:03am pantz: "The Laura Palmer Tape" and now BOB? Looks like Joe's been watching Twin Peaks.
	♥ 10:05am Joe McG: @pantz: True Fact: I've never seen it.
	♥ 10:05am pantz: @Joe well, it's SEEN YOU! Spooky, huh?
	10:06am Snoochienucci: @pantz @Joe McG maybe the twin peaks are watching Joe?
	♥ 10:06am melinda: @Joe never seen Twin Peaks? me neither.
	♥ 10:06am Joe McG: @melinda: I thought I was the only one in the world. Thanks! @Snoochie: Very possible!
	10:06am johnk77: nice beat-matching selecter new pareles https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/19/arts/music/lady-gaga-coronavirus-concert-one-world.html
	10:06am Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn: Good morning, Joe. Thanks again for gettin' skeletal, we appreciate it.
	♥ 10:07am melinda: @Joe there's two of us!
	10:07am johnk77: rip https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/17/arts/music/moraes-moreira-dead.html
	10:08am Earth Walker: Specials !!!!! Yes
	10:10am p20: @melinda: At least 3 on the Twin Peaks non-seeing...
	10:10am Earth Walker: Great show today Greg and crew Thanks
	10:10am lee in Dublin: thanks for another great show Joe. Specials was the first album I ever bought, still sounds fantastic.
	10:11am MplsCoco: Good morning Joe! ♥️
	♥ 10:11am Joe McG: That's a great first LP, Lee!
	♥ 10:12am melinda: @p20 haha
	10:12am Toothgrinder Tom: When Twin Peaks was airing my father would watch a little bit and then switch the channel to ‘Northern Exposure’ (a much more mainstream show).
	10:13am testingwithfire: How did y'all turn "left" in musical taste? My moment: hearing the Talking Heads' "Take Me To The River" on the Billboard countdown in, what, 1978? I was but a preteen. I had no idea it was a cover... but what a cover.
	10:13am johnk77: rub a dub style back@nightclub
	10:13am Toothgrinder Tom: ‘Northern Exposure’ was to ‘Twin Peaks’ as ‘Everybody Loves Raymond’ is to ‘Seinfeld’.
	10:14am P-90: Betty Padgett SO classic
	♥ 10:14am Handy Haversack: @TTom: math checks out.
	♥ 10:15am Stanley: Hi Bryan
	10:15am Toothgrinder Tom: @testingwithfire do Elvis Costello and Kate Bush count as ‘left’?
	♥ 10:16am Stanley: Sorry should have said: Hi! Bryan!
	10:18am p20: @testingwithfire: Depends on what you mean by "left". (My older sibs listened to the Talking Heads so I thought that was pretty normal). I saw an article in Guitar Player magazine saying that Fred Frith was "perhaps the best guitar player in the world". or something like that. Then I found a copy of "Gravity" at Sam Goody. I was very confused by it. At first I didn't like it...
	♥ 10:18am Handy Haversack: Does Marillion count as "left"?
	♥ 10:19am Webhamster Henry: More vocalese!
	10:20am testingwithfire: @TTom: I think so! I remember being transfixed by Kate Bush on SNL around '78-79. @p20: I don't think I was really ready for Fred Frith and Eno till my forties, although lord knows that neither Bowie nor the Talking Heads would have been the same without Eno.
	♥ 10:20am Handy Haversack: King's Lead Hat, I think you added too much butter.
	♥ 10:21am Andrew Waterloo: Watching videos by Neubauten, Stump, His name is Alive, and a host of others on Much Music's City Limit At the same time the internet was introducing me to stuff like Coil.
	10:21am p20: Then there's the sense of left, as in leftist politics - bands like Gang of Four and This Heat, tasty propaganda I willingly swallowed at a very suggestible age! (And I still swing to the left on every conceivable issue)
	♥ 10:22am karlward: Joe I hope you are dancing to this in your smoking jacket, and I wish we could all crowd into the control room and join the dance party
	10:23am testingwithfire: @Fernando I would consider relocating to Curitiba if Brazil had an easier residential visa policy. There is soooo much to that city. And I bet you're in a beautiful spot. @p20 I have swung further leftward (in every sense) with age... you have company!
	♥ 10:23am karlward: The groove is too much HES TAKING OFF THE SMOKING JACKET LOOK OUT
	10:24am testingwithfire: Making beet hummus this week, anyone want some?
	♥ 10:24am Joe McG: @karlward: I wish you could too, believe it or not! The jacket is definitely off. :)
	10:24am johnk77: smokingjacket w/balaclava
	♥ 10:24am Brian in UK: Joe, Edikanfo another great album. Continuing the Eno connection. He produced it.
	♥ 10:24am Andrew Waterloo: I'd also listen to an early morning NPR show called The Morning Becomes Eclectic.
	10:24am βrian: I bet Joe has even loosened his ascot!
	10:26am p20: @testingwithfire: Eno and Frith are absolutely huge influences on me, both in my listening habits and in the music I attempt to make sometimes. I was lucky to catch on to them early on. And regarding leftism: I think the state of the world has radicalized a lot of folks. - And beet hummus sounds great! It's radical because it's red and beets are a root vegetable :)
	♥ 10:26am karlward: Can't wait for my 2020 WFMU branded hush puppies
	♥ 10:28am Handy Haversack: If Joe keeps this up, you're gonna end up with beat hummus, @testingwithfire!
	10:28am Snoochienucci: ohhh thats pretty cool. That Eno guy is everywhere! lolol
	10:29am βrian: Beets Happening.
	10:29am johnk77: was high life ghanaian?
	10:29am testingwithfire: @Brian lol, nice. Beets Underground
	10:29am Toothgrinder Tom: I grew up in the Washington DC area and we had a commercial radio station called WFMU which was free form and not unlike WFMU. I listened to it whenever I could and so did all my friends. They played a lot of B52’s, REM, occasionally Sade and a lot of unclassifiable stuff.
	10:30am Toothgrinder Tom: Sorry I meant to say WHFS - Freudian slip!
	10:30am βrian: The English Beet.
	10:30am testingwithfire: I thank Frank "Vanilla Bean" Balesteri for converting me for life: he was on a little E Stroudsburg station called WVPO before he came to WFMU
	10:31am p20: @johnk77: It started in Ghana but got pretty popular in Nigeria and other parts of Africa
	10:32am seth from muddy creek: Great show. Perfect for the mild breezy cloudy morning here in beautiful Rockland County New York.
	♥ 10:32am Matt Fiveash: Joe- Johnny Guitar Watson & Larry Williams had a hit with Mercy Mercy Mercy (with lyrics); and the plot thickens: different lyrics than that Madeline Bell version!
	10:34am Chris Crisco: The Buckinghams also did Mercy Mercy with lyrics if I remember correctly
	♥ 10:34am melinda: I don't know the original but I sure do like Faye's version.
	♥ 10:35am efd: Joe, I'm so jealous of your ability to play records back to back!
	10:35am Chris Crisco: yeah madeline had to feminize the lyrics
	♥ 10:36am Handy Haversack: Gonna walk Kate and the dog to the start of their run. Back in a bit! Gah, but I hate to miss Single File!
	10:36am p20: this sounds faster than i remember it
	♥ 10:36am b!!!: Yessssssssssss
	10:36am βrian: This is one of those milestone songs, for sure.
	🎸 ♥ 10:36am listener 126464: Cheers to Vanilla Bean!
	♥ 10:37am Joe McG: @Chris: I forgot about that version, thanks! I'm going to listen to it later. @efd: Ha! Thanks for roughing it out there, Evan, everyone is sounding great.
	♥ 10:37am melinda: B-52s were one of the first musics I heard that seemed weird in an exciting way.
	10:37am p20: is this different from the album version?
	10:37am Colleen: The second I saw it for the first time I was blown away from the weirdness...and knew it was immediately for me!!
	10:37am testingwithfire: @p20 I think so
	10:37am Erin in TO: I will never not love Rock Lobster
	♥ 10:37am Stevel: Definitely different
	10:38am Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn: B52s on 33 1/2? Stlll sounds great.
	🎸 ♥ 10:38am Strandlund: This does sound faster than I remember too, p20.
	♥ 10:38am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning!
	♥ 10:38am common: 1st time i heard this they were performing live on Fridays. I remember being excited and scared.
	♥ 10:38am Joe McG: Totally bizarre record, right? Try to imagine not hearing this before.
	10:38am Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn: This was MY "Southern Rock".
	10:38am Tim 07030: Ah, I believe this is the pre-lp 7” version that WPIX used to play during their brief glory days. And hi Joe!
	♥ 10:39am artbrau: pretty spare production. sounds like a demo
	♥ 10:39am Stevel: common/Joe: Definitely not like anything heard before. That was the benefit of living through that time. So many surprises, pleasant and scary.
	♥ 10:40am efd: 40 (!!) years later and I still remember a mix tape I made for myself that had the "Rock Lobster" single followed by Jay Ferguson's "Shakedown Cruise."
	♥ 10:40am Tome: ahh now this is Monday morning Fun hey Joe and everyone !<>! something bout 45's so resilient sounding you can just sink your teeth into !<>!
	10:40am βrian: From 30-minute rock anthems to this!
	10:40am p20: @JoeMcG: But I'm pretty sure that I have never heard this before! (Not this 45RPM version)
	♥ 10:40am Irene Trudel: I'll never forget hearing Rock Lobster fo the first time! And, yes, it was probably on the beloved WPIX-FM.
	♥ 10:40am Baja Joe: I just hurt myself dancing
	♥ 10:40am common: agreed, Stevel!
	10:40am judy from croton: I remember seeing them on SAt Night Live and being SHOCKED as hell; one of three performances I saw that said NEW
	♥ 10:40am Stevel: Serious chair dancing.
	♥ 10:41am efd: that single is still among my most prized possessions.
	10:41am RobinSays: I remember hearing an interview with John Lennon and Yoko Ono where they said The B-52s were a lot like the Plastic Ono Band. I can see that, especially the vocal sounds on "Rock Lobster."
	♥ 10:41am Tome: '78 wow hey EFD <> I am sos ,,was thinking this was not until ie... 1980 ,, ie,, Pretendeners time <>,,,, I'm sure it is EFD would be mine too if I had it < still >
	♥ 10:41am Phillippe Bastille: @Judy from croton and the other two are...? Inquiring minds want to know
	10:42am johnk77: a guy named chuck booked the bands on fridays
	♥ 10:42am Tome: <> Irene <> wow <>
	♥ 10:43am Tome: [ Titus Oaks } ()
	10:43am p20: I won the yellow B52s album somewhere on the Jersey Boardwalk... one of those games where you throw rings or balls at something. One of my first LPs.
	♥ 10:44am Irene Trudel: WPIX-FM was a huge influence on me during its brief run. As a sidebar, I've gotten to know Joe "From Chicago" Piasek. With some of the money he's made from voiceover work, Joe started WIOX in Roxbury NY, a community radio station that some good friends of ours host shows on.
	10:44am Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn: p20, that's where some of my wife's favorite LPs came from- she was a whiz at the wheels "down the shore".
	♥ 10:45am Tome: ... transition for me was on SNL seeing Elvis Costello the first time ,,, being them mostly a Hard/Prog rock snow ( not admitting at least to liking ie,, punk new wave disco ) Elvis just did it for me ,, he was Great !<>!
	10:45am p20: If I remember correctly, it was the only record that wasn't Foghat or Journey or Toto or some other crap like that. So that's why I picked it.
	10:45am johnk77: fred is nice in an exciting way
	♥ 10:46am Irene Trudel: @RobinSays, I've heard that Yoko was a big influence on the B-52's.
	10:48am testingwithfire: @Joe love the early seventies country, nothing like it
	♥ 10:49am Joe McG: @twf: Me, too, I love it all. A little more groovy, less countrypolitan.
	10:50am testingwithfire: @Joe OMG this Dallas Frazier... first time I ever hear him
	10:50am northguineahills: My sister in law, from Monterrey, Mexico, was supposed to start a job in Houston, April 1st. It's been a bit delayed, just like my own job. At least her husband is working remotely, to provide for her two kids.
	♥ 10:51am Joe McG: @twf: Mostly known as a songwriter...
	10:52am northguineahills: yes, it's petroleum relatated.
	10:52am RobinSays: @Irene, I can totally hear Yoko's influence on Kate pierson and Cindy Wilson's vocals. Also, I was a big WPIX fan too. It was the first place I heard Talking Heads, Squeeze, Split Enz etc. I was also a huge devotee of WLIR.
	10:53am Joe B: Hi Joe and everyone, show sounding great
	10:53am p20: Speaking of formative "turning left" experiences - does anyone else remember David Bowie's appearance on SNL (Dec 15, 1979) where he had Klaus Nomi sing backup, and wore that conical suit where he couldn't even walk and had to be carried on stage? I remember my mother saying that was "so stupid", and I was completely transfixed.
	🎸 ♥ 10:53am Threemoons: Wow, love me some Kinks! :)
	♥ 10:53am Joe McG: Thanks, Joe!
	♥ 10:53am melinda: Nice blast from the past, this Kinks.

	♥ 10:54am Joe McG: @P20: Wow, second week in a row of synergy! I had no idea.
	10:55am dano59: Great sets today Joe!
	♥ 10:55am Stevel: Love Come Dancing. Love the Kinks. Love Joe Mc G. Love lamp.
	♥ 10:55am Barney Grubbs: My mom loves this Kinks song. It took me years to discover they had recorded other songs before this.
	10:56am Lewis: Come Dancing is so poignant - The Kinks...
	♥ 10:57am melinda: @Barney it was my intro to the Kinks
	10:57am testingwithfire: Barbara Manning... more greatness I'd never heard of till today. Joe, you are killing it this morning. Love the recorders/Andean flutes.
	11:02am John in Bklyn: @Irene: I first heard Rock Lobster on Dr. Demento!
	♥ 11:02am Irene Trudel: Oh Wow! The Who's Overture as a single! I have this with a gold sleeve, and it's split in two parts for the A and B side.
	11:03am Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn: I will not argue about this, The Who were the greatest rock and roll band ever. The end.
	♥ 11:03am Irene Trudel: @John, I do remember hearing Rock Lobster on Dr. Demento too.
	♥ 11:04am tom from Glasgow: [Grandma Flanders voice] Hello, Joe
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am -Ken: Best / only use of French Horn in Rock and Roll on that Who song right there...
	♥ 11:04am Matt Fiveash: Tommy doesn't know what day it is, and neither do I!
	♥ 11:04am Brian in UK: There is a version of Underture on California '99.
	♥ 11:05am Stevel: Ken speaks thee ripping truth!
	♥ 11:06am Mick: Same band, but I kind of like John's French Horn on Pictures of Lily too...
	11:06am Roberto: Entwistle on the french horn if I'm not mistaken.
	♥ 11:07am Stevel: "Mom! Tommy's in a nutshell!"
	♥ 11:08am JeremyB: Was that bluegrass band... Luthrr Wright and the Wrongs? They do a version of the Wall I heard
	11:08am Joe B: correct, London Town
	♥ 11:09am Ken From Hyde Park: I wonder if the Moody Blues utilize French horns in any of their works.
	♥ 11:09am Barney Grubbs: @melinda: for me it was some combination of come dancing and weird al's Yoda on dr. demento
	11:09am Roberto: They can call it sidewalk surfing if they like but they'd best keep it off the sidewalk.
	11:10am P-90: I almost don’t want to say “Single File” is my favorite part of the show, because it sounds like I’m undervaluing the rest of Surface Noise. So I’ll just say I look forward to it every week.
	11:10am Joe B: yes, a Jan and Dean hit sidewalk surfin but I think written by Brian with Roger Christian.
	11:11am Joe B: the beach boys version is known as Catch a Wave
	11:11am P-90: Ace scholarship, Joe B
	11:11am Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn: OK. I LIVE in Georgia (within the famous "Blue circle in a sea of Red"- don't judge); what in the heck is, um... "fried bread"?!? Do you mean corn pone? Puzzling.
	11:12am (another) Patrick in Hoboken: There was a great episode of Mad Men in which Don Draper goes to California, and the Jan and Dean version plays in the background in a beach restaurant.
	♥ 11:12am Fuzzy: "You Can't Always Get What You Want", "Beth", various post-Kath Chicago schlock -- french horns galore.
	♥ 11:13am tom from Glasgow: me too
	11:13am TC: The Hillbenders covering The Who?
	11:13am Roberto: I'm all for legalization, but could people please look into edibles instead of stanking up my air? K thx.
	♥ 11:13am steveo: joe, just ask your neighbor to put a dryer sheet in a paper towel tube and exhale through that
	11:14am P-90: So? Seth Rogen spent his life BEFORE the pandemic smoking weed...
	11:14am Bill W: I saw the Kinks play in '84 on that pier next to the USS Intrepid. Ray and Dave flipped each other off throughout the show.
	11:15am Bill W: If Seth Rogen isn't a caution against 420, what is?
	♥ 11:17am lukavino: Joe, have you ever head Kurt Vile's take on "Pretty Boy"? it kills me.
	11:17am testingwithfire: oh wow wow wow (scurries off to Bandcamp)
	11:18am ami ad: Hello D.J. Hello all.Fine show,again.Thank you.Was that The Churchills you played?
	♥ 11:19am Andrew_in_WI: Short people?
	♥ 11:19am Mike Sin: Ace Records still delivering these comprehensive CD comps like it's 1996. Good for them!
	♥ 11:19am Ken From Hyde Park: Sorry, I was away for a spell. Randy from Why Oh Why?
	11:21am morphe': Me: "did she call today Ma??" Ma: "Probably, the phone was ringing a lot and I did not answer it..."
	11:22am paul: Petula will be 88 this year.
	♥ 11:23am Joe McG: @Mike: Ace also responsible for two excellent comps of Randy Newman songs by other artists.
	11:23am Rick A.: Hi Joe, This is a great set, reminiscent of your marathon premium, "Newman's Loaned" which we listen to quite often. My wife really likes Newman's music. So it might be her favorite WFMU mix.
	♥ 11:24am Phillippe Bastille: Did any women cover the Doctor Pepper commercial?
	♥ 11:25am karlward: This is definitely not the Lou Reed + Metallica record "Lulu"...
	♥ 11:25am Webhamster Henry: You (or Mary wing) should do a set of Vine St. covers!
	♥ 11:25am karlward: ...right?
	11:25am Brian D: Great show, as always, Joe. Apropos of nothing, Ray Davies and the Kinks' "Come Dancing" both feature prominently in the documentary "Bobby" -- about English footballer Bobby Moore. I just watched it on Friday. Apparently, Ray and the late Moore were friends, and Moore captained England's World Cup-winning team in 1966 -- part of the inspiration for "Sunny Afternoon." for those so inclined: www.youtube.com...
	11:27am Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn: Such a great, powerful voice (Petula). Listened to her "These Are My Songs" LP last night.
	♥ 11:28am Joe McG: Thanks for the info, BD! @Rick: Yes, I'm going to revisit my own premium today. Maybe that's gauche!
	11:28am testingwithfire: "Johnny" sounds like a Kurt Weill tune
	11:29am Joe B: Newman's Loaned - one of the best executed theme FMU DJ premiums of all time, from the concept - song selection - cover art! still in regular car-house rotation!
	11:29am Rick A.: No, Joe, you have only played two tracks so far from it which is impressive diversification. I like the art work on that one. The painting of Newman is really evocative.
	♥ 11:30am Joe McG: @Rick A: DJ Faye did that, the same one who sings so well. We heard her earlier in the show.
	11:31am morphe': Joe - using the premium is not gauche - you use what ya have in the cupboard in a pandemic... or it is like using a piece of yer Granny's starter to make a delicious sourdough bread...
	11:32am Jeezy: Fun Randy fact: I couldn't for the life of me find his original version of "Guilty" on Spotify, from I think Rednecks, which I LOVE. Finally I figured out.. It's spelled "Guity" on there!
	11:32am testingwithfire: off to buy beets (and more)... @Joe thank you for a great show and it's been nice spending time with everyone here
	♥ 11:34am karlward: Jokes about Metallica aside, Joe this is a great set within a great show. Thanks to you and the WFMU family for keeping it deeply real during this craziness.
	♥ 11:34am Handy Haversack: Nice set to come home and wipe down and put away groceries to. Lulu the cat and I very much enjoyed hearing Lulu the human. Fanny!
	11:35am paul: Jeezy...Good Old Boys is his greatest album, in my humble opinion.
	11:35am P-90: Fanny...!
	♥ 11:37am Joe McG: Thanks, karlward and Handy! Glad you dig.
	11:38am Rick A.: We saw Newman speak and perform as part of the New Yorker Festival a few years back. He performed "Sail Away" among other songs. During the Q&A, I asked him how living in Los Angeles had influenced his songwriting. He said that it probably has, but he couldn't explain how. I realized I should have asked him about his favorite version of one of his songs.
	11:39am Roberto: Oh wow my crappy band used to cover this Bonnie Raitt in the early '90s. Brings back memories.
	11:40am waters7: Thanks, Joe. Nice to hear some Randy Newman. Love this Bonnie Raitt
	11:40am Jeezy: Speak of the devil... Oy vey, amazing singing but Bonnie's band made some odd changes to the chords...
	11:40am johnk77: randy can be very droll on stage
	♥ 11:41am Joe McG: @johnk77: Half the reason to see him live is for the jokes!
	♥ 11:41am Chop Scott: Morning Joe!
	♥ 11:42am Joe McG: Chop Scott! Nice to see you, sir! Hope all is well as can be expected.
	♥ 11:42am officina: Another wonderful show Joe !
	♥ 11:42am Mick: Thanks for this set (and the rest of the show, of course!) Happy Patriots Day to everyone up in New England
	11:42am Peter in Tappan: Joe you are leaving me slackjawed...thank you so much for this
	♥ 11:44am Stevel: Peter. You said it. Mavis stopped me in my tracks.
	♥ 11:44am Joe McG: You bet, Mick and Peter and Stevel. Happy to bring 'em to you. Thanks, officina!
	11:46am johnk77: the bonnie raitt track produced by john hall great show again today
	♥ 11:46am Handy Haversack: Wow. This set. This song. Damn, Joe. I missed Single File, but I am deeply grateful to have made it back in time for this.
	11:46am Rick A.: I thought he would be more of a curmudgeon on stage. However, he was fairly open and friendly both during the interview and the Q&A. You still have only used two tracks from the premium, impressive store of Newman songs, Joe. Of course, there are many male performers on that premium too.
	♥ 11:46am Webhamster Henry: Marianne apparently has COVID-19
	11:46am DJ Guin: @Web...2 weeks...not looking favorable
	11:48am sinner: Pastor Joe.
	11:49am wizard frog: Amen
	11:49am annie: a neighbor wlked in right as "come Dancing" came on andi missed it!! such a great song..i'll have to goback and listen..didn't marianne do amovie called "irina Palm"? such a great performance... anyway, i want you all to know i think of you guys as my family... thanks for being there. thanks joe

	♥ 11:52am Andrew Waterloo: hmm.. didn't know this was a cover. Chantel Kraviazuk does a cover as well.
	♥ 11:52am Joe McG: Good to see you, sinner. Etta just gave me shivers. @126464: My pleasure! @radioronan: Thanks, and thanks to everyone for listening and commenting today. It's always great to be with you.
	11:53am Bobby: Thanks, Joe!

	♥ 11:55am Baja Joe: Love Chantal Kreviazuk's version of Feels Like Home
	11:56am Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn: Dear Granny of the sea piquanté, Thank you VERY much for the wondrous postcard! It's next to me every day at my work-from-home desk, I love it.

	10:10am Earth Walker: Great show today Greg and crew Thanks

	♥ 10:12am melinda: @p20 haha
	10:12am Toothgrinder Tom: When Twin Peaks was airing my father would watch a little bit and then switch the channel to ‘Northern Exposure’ (a much more mainstream show).
	10:13am testingwithfire: How did y'all turn "left" in musical taste? My moment: hearing the Talking Heads' "Take Me To The River" on the Billboard countdown in, what, 1978? I was but a preteen. I had no idea it was a cover... but what a cover.
	10:13am johnk77: rub a dub style back@nightclub
	10:13am Toothgrinder Tom: ‘Northern Exposure’ was to ‘Twin Peaks’ as ‘Everybody Loves Raymond’ is to ‘Seinfeld’.
	10:14am P-90: Betty Padgett SO classic
	♥ 10:14am Handy Haversack: @TTom: math checks out.
	♥ 10:15am Stanley: Hi Bryan
	10:15am Toothgrinder Tom: @testingwithfire do Elvis Costello and Kate Bush count as ‘left’?
	♥ 10:16am Stanley: Sorry should have said: Hi! Bryan!
	10:18am p20: @testingwithfire: Depends on what you mean by "left". (My older sibs listened to the Talking Heads so I thought that was pretty normal). I saw an article in Guitar Player magazine saying that Fred Frith was "perhaps the best guitar player in the world". or something like that. Then I found a copy of "Gravity" at Sam Goody. I was very confused by it. At first I didn't like it...
	♥ 10:18am Handy Haversack: Does Marillion count as "left"?
	♥ 10:19am Webhamster Henry: More vocalese!
	10:20am testingwithfire: @TTom: I think so! I remember being transfixed by Kate Bush on SNL around '78-79. @p20: I don't think I was really ready for Fred Frith and Eno till my forties, although lord knows that neither Bowie nor the Talking Heads would have been the same without Eno.
	♥ 10:20am Handy Haversack: King's Lead Hat, I think you added too much butter.
	♥ 10:21am Andrew Waterloo: Watching videos by Neubauten, Stump, His name is Alive, and a host of others on Much Music's City Limit At the same time the internet was introducing me to stuff like Coil.
	10:21am p20: Then there's the sense of left, as in leftist politics - bands like Gang of Four and This Heat, tasty propaganda I willingly swallowed at a very suggestible age! (And I still swing to the left on every conceivable issue)
	♥ 10:22am karlward: Joe I hope you are dancing to this in your smoking jacket, and I wish we could all crowd into the control room and join the dance party
	10:23am testingwithfire: @Fernando I would consider relocating to Curitiba if Brazil had an easier residential visa policy. There is soooo much to that city. And I bet you're in a beautiful spot. @p20 I have swung further leftward (in every sense) with age... you have company!
	♥ 10:23am karlward: The groove is too much HES TAKING OFF THE SMOKING JACKET LOOK OUT

	♥ 10:24am Brian in UK: Joe, Edikanfo another great album. Continuing the Eno connection. He produced it.
	♥ 10:24am Andrew Waterloo: I'd also listen to an early morning NPR show called The Morning Becomes Eclectic.
	10:24am βrian: I bet Joe has even loosened his ascot!
	10:26am p20: @testingwithfire: Eno and Frith are absolutely huge influences on me, both in my listening habits and in the music I attempt to make sometimes. I was lucky to catch on to them early on. And regarding leftism: I think the state of the world has radicalized a lot of folks. - And beet hummus sounds great! It's radical because it's red and beets are a root vegetable :)
	♥ 10:26am karlward: Can't wait for my 2020 WFMU branded hush puppies
	♥ 10:28am Handy Haversack: If Joe keeps this up, you're gonna end up with beat hummus, @testingwithfire!

	10:29am johnk77: was high life ghanaian?
	10:29am testingwithfire: @Brian lol, nice. Beets Underground
	10:29am Toothgrinder Tom: I grew up in the Washington DC area and we had a commercial radio station called WFMU which was free form and not unlike WFMU. I listened to it whenever I could and so did all my friends. They played a lot of B52’s, REM, occasionally Sade and a lot of unclassifiable stuff.
	10:30am Toothgrinder Tom: Sorry I meant to say WHFS - Freudian slip!
	10:30am βrian: The English Beet.
	10:30am testingwithfire: I thank Frank "Vanilla Bean" Balesteri for converting me for life: he was on a little E Stroudsburg station called WVPO before he came to WFMU
	10:31am p20: @johnk77: It started in Ghana but got pretty popular in Nigeria and other parts of Africa
	10:32am seth from muddy creek: Great show. Perfect for the mild breezy cloudy morning here in beautiful Rockland County New York.
	♥ 10:32am Matt Fiveash: Joe- Johnny Guitar Watson & Larry Williams had a hit with Mercy Mercy Mercy (with lyrics); and the plot thickens: different lyrics than that Madeline Bell version!

	♥ 10:34am melinda: I don't know the original but I sure do like Faye's version.

	♥ 10:37am melinda: B-52s were one of the first musics I heard that seemed weird in an exciting way.
	10:37am p20: is this different from the album version?
	10:37am Colleen: The second I saw it for the first time I was blown away from the weirdness...and knew it was immediately for me!!

	♥ 10:39am artbrau: pretty spare production. sounds like a demo
	♥ 10:39am Stevel: common/Joe: Definitely not like anything heard before. That was the benefit of living through that time. So many surprises, pleasant and scary.
	♥ 10:40am efd: 40 (!!) years later and I still remember a mix tape I made for myself that had the "Rock Lobster" single followed by Jay Ferguson's "Shakedown Cruise."

	♥ 10:44am Irene Trudel: WPIX-FM was a huge influence on me during its brief run. As a sidebar, I've gotten to know Joe "From Chicago" Piasek. With some of the money he's made from voiceover work, Joe started WIOX in Roxbury NY, a community radio station that some good friends of ours host shows on.
	10:44am Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn: p20, that's where some of my wife's favorite LPs came from- she was a whiz at the wheels "down the shore".
	♥ 10:45am Tome: ... transition for me was on SNL seeing Elvis Costello the first time ,,, being them mostly a Hard/Prog rock snow ( not admitting at least to liking ie,, punk new wave disco ) Elvis just did it for me ,, he was Great !<>!
	10:45am p20: If I remember correctly, it was the only record that wasn't Foghat or Journey or Toto or some other crap like that. So that's why I picked it.

	10:50am northguineahills: My sister in law, from Monterrey, Mexico, was supposed to start a job in Houston, April 1st. It's been a bit delayed, just like my own job. At least her husband is working remotely, to provide for her two kids.
	♥ 10:51am Joe McG: @twf: Mostly known as a songwriter...
	10:52am northguineahills: yes, it's petroleum relatated.
	10:52am RobinSays: @Irene, I can totally hear Yoko's influence on Kate pierson and Cindy Wilson's vocals. Also, I was a big WPIX fan too. It was the first place I heard Talking Heads, Squeeze, Split Enz etc. I was also a huge devotee of WLIR.
	10:53am Joe B: Hi Joe and everyone, show sounding great
	10:53am p20: Speaking of formative "turning left" experiences - does anyone else remember David Bowie's appearance on SNL (Dec 15, 1979) where he had Klaus Nomi sing backup, and wore that conical suit where he couldn't even walk and had to be carried on stage? I remember my mother saying that was "so stupid", and I was completely transfixed.

	♥ 11:09am Ken From Hyde Park: I wonder if the Moody Blues utilize French horns in any of their works.
	♥ 11:09am Barney Grubbs: @melinda: for me it was some combination of come dancing and weird al's Yoda on dr. demento
	11:09am Roberto: They can call it sidewalk surfing if they like but they'd best keep it off the sidewalk.
	11:10am P-90: I almost don’t want to say “Single File” is my favorite part of the show, because it sounds like I’m undervaluing the rest of Surface Noise. So I’ll just say I look forward to it every week.
	11:10am Joe B: yes, a Jan and Dean hit sidewalk surfin but I think written by Brian with Roger Christian.
	11:11am Joe B: the beach boys version is known as Catch a Wave
	11:11am P-90: Ace scholarship, Joe B
	11:11am Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn: OK. I LIVE in Georgia (within the famous "Blue circle in a sea of Red"- don't judge); what in the heck is, um... "fried bread"?!? Do you mean corn pone? Puzzling.
	11:12am (another) Patrick in Hoboken: There was a great episode of Mad Men in which Don Draper goes to California, and the Jan and Dean version plays in the background in a beach restaurant.

	11:14am P-90: So? Seth Rogen spent his life BEFORE the pandemic smoking weed...
	11:14am Bill W: I saw the Kinks play in '84 on that pier next to the USS Intrepid. Ray and Dave flipped each other off throughout the show.
	11:15am Bill W: If Seth Rogen isn't a caution against 420, what is?

	11:22am paul: Petula will be 88 this year.
	♥ 11:23am Joe McG: @Mike: Ace also responsible for two excellent comps of Randy Newman songs by other artists.
	11:23am Rick A.: Hi Joe, This is a great set, reminiscent of your marathon premium, "Newman's Loaned" which we listen to quite often. My wife really likes Newman's music. So it might be her favorite WFMU mix.
	♥ 11:24am Phillippe Bastille: Did any women cover the Doctor Pepper commercial?
	♥ 11:25am karlward: This is definitely not the Lou Reed + Metallica record "Lulu"...
	♥ 11:25am Webhamster Henry: You (or Mary wing) should do a set of Vine St. covers!
	♥ 11:25am karlward: ...right?
	11:25am Brian D: Great show, as always, Joe. Apropos of nothing, Ray Davies and the Kinks' "Come Dancing" both feature prominently in the documentary "Bobby" -- about English footballer Bobby Moore. I just watched it on Friday. Apparently, Ray and the late Moore were friends, and Moore captained England's World Cup-winning team in 1966 -- part of the inspiration for "Sunny Afternoon." for those so inclined: www.youtube.com...
	11:27am Itzall Gön'gett-Bettresuhnn: Such a great, powerful voice (Petula). Listened to her "These Are My Songs" LP last night.
	♥ 11:28am Joe McG: Thanks for the info, BD! @Rick: Yes, I'm going to revisit my own premium today. Maybe that's gauche!
	11:28am testingwithfire: "Johnny" sounds like a Kurt Weill tune
	11:29am Joe B: Newman's Loaned - one of the best executed theme FMU DJ premiums of all time, from the concept - song selection - cover art! still in regular car-house rotation!
	11:29am Rick A.: No, Joe, you have only played two tracks so far from it which is impressive diversification. I like the art work on that one. The painting of Newman is really evocative.
	♥ 11:30am Joe McG: @Rick A: DJ Faye did that, the same one who sings so well. We heard her earlier in the show.
	11:31am morphe': Joe - using the premium is not gauche - you use what ya have in the cupboard in a pandemic... or it is like using a piece of yer Granny's starter to make a delicious sourdough bread...
	11:32am Jeezy: Fun Randy fact: I couldn't for the life of me find his original version of "Guilty" on Spotify, from I think Rednecks, which I LOVE. Finally I figured out.. It's spelled "Guity" on there!
	11:32am testingwithfire: off to buy beets (and more)... @Joe thank you for a great show and it's been nice spending time with everyone here
	♥ 11:34am karlward: Jokes about Metallica aside, Joe this is a great set within a great show. Thanks to you and the WFMU family for keeping it deeply real during this craziness.
	♥ 11:34am Handy Haversack: Nice set to come home and wipe down and put away groceries to. Lulu the cat and I very much enjoyed hearing Lulu the human. Fanny!
	11:35am paul: Jeezy...Good Old Boys is his greatest album, in my humble opinion.
	11:35am P-90: Fanny...!
	♥ 11:37am Joe McG: Thanks, karlward and Handy! Glad you dig.
	11:38am Rick A.: We saw Newman speak and perform as part of the New Yorker Festival a few years back. He performed "Sail Away" among other songs. During the Q&A, I asked him how living in Los Angeles had influenced his songwriting. He said that it probably has, but he couldn't explain how. I realized I should have asked him about his favorite version of one of his songs.
	11:39am Roberto: Oh wow my crappy band used to cover this Bonnie Raitt in the early '90s. Brings back memories.
	11:40am waters7: Thanks, Joe. Nice to hear some Randy Newman. Love this Bonnie Raitt
	11:40am Jeezy: Speak of the devil... Oy vey, amazing singing but Bonnie's band made some odd changes to the chords...

	11:46am johnk77: the bonnie raitt track produced by john hall great show again today
	♥ 11:46am Handy Haversack: Wow. This set. This song. Damn, Joe. I missed Single File, but I am deeply grateful to have made it back in time for this.
	11:46am Rick A.: I thought he would be more of a curmudgeon on stage. However, he was fairly open and friendly both during the interview and the Q&A. You still have only used two tracks from the premium, impressive store of Newman songs, Joe. Of course, there are many male performers on that premium too.
