Playlist for John Allen - April 2, 2008

Wednesdays 6am - 9am (Web-only) on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

"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."

hi, i was just listening to your show from last week.
i was really enjoying the first 40 minutes before
tuning in now to your live show.
i had just gotten a migraine earlier and had to just
lay there in the dark w/my eyes closed.
i probably sound crazy, but just wanted to say
thanks, the water sounds and other art
music were very interesting and in a way
therapeutic.

Wed. 4/2/08 9:05pm From: Hope and Gabe

Thanks for the BEAT

Wed. 4/2/08 9:22pm From: Beth

Thanks for playing Driver's Seat, possibly one my favorite songs of all time.

Wed. 4/2/08 9:26pm From: me

oh you're welcome beth. a lot of people feel the same way you do,

Wed. 4/2/08 10:21pm From: WinstonSmith

It is after 10:00 PM, why are you prohibited from saying Fuck Buttons on the air? By the way, they are a great band. I first heard of them on CKUT in Montreal where the DJ was freely able to tell me their name was Fuck Buttons at 10:00 AM.

A. montreal isnt regulated by the fcc

Wed. 4/2/08 10:41pm From: Listener Rick

Don't know what that French-language hip-hop thing was, but I enjoyed it. Keep up the good work.

Wed. 4/2/08 10:53pm From: dave

every so often, it's nice to be reminded what a great band talk talk were.
