steveo:

Good evening! I am over here on the other side of Flatbush, listening to your records after they are transmitted to Jersey City over the internet and then down to East Orange where they hitch a ride on some radio waves, back over the Hudson and East Rivers, into my radio and finally my ears.

And the cherry on top is that they are fantastic records! :) :) :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:31pm
Becky:

Ha!! I should put a loudspeaker out my window, it might get to you faster.
  8:31pm
JakeGould:

@Gaylord: Type A+ is indeed my blood. If you need some, let me know.
  8:33pm
JakeGould:

@Becky: You know what I just said? I am not implying any DJ alienate their neighbors, but will say what NYC is missing from this quarantine is people playing music out their windows. Like old school NYC. Like maybe a WFMU blasting their show out their window (if possible) to the streets.

Ack! I meant to say: “You know what YOU just said?”

Does brunch friendly Veselka have pirogues with holes? I just know that them and B&H make what they call “blintzes” but what I get on my plate is a crepe.

Thanks ultradamno! Sound alike follow-ups aren't quite as interesting as when some song succeeds after a bunch of soundalike predecessors...but don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking that record!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:50pm
Little Danny:

Sounds like straight-up honky-tonk to these ears, even if it's Nashville of "a certain era."
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:50pm
Handy Haversack:

I just have a suggestive nature, Jake!

BTW: I love blintzes. There's a Polish place in Gpoint with an AMAZING plum-butter blintz.

"Nashville of a certain era" sounds like an exotic bourbon cocktail
