  US Girls performs live! US Girls is one Chicago gal, a reel-to-reel tape deck, some stomp-boxes, and a remarkably alienated-yet-engaged take on classic pop, stripping away all the structure and revealing all the emotion and meaning; imagine Phil Spector covered by The Conet Project, or Springsteen by a gang of angry ghosts. Then look for "Introducing U.S. Girls," just released by Siltbreeze.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:03am From: Gavin the Fantastic

Pete Townsend? Dear God.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:05am From: C

Give Pete a break. This is a great song.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:06am From: miss v

I lurve me some peter townsend. He is a genuis

Tue. 8/19/08 9:07am From: Lizardner Dave

OK, thanks Scott.

C - I actually really like that Townshend solo record. I was just surprised to hear it on this here radio station out side of say, Glen Jones's program.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:09am From: Bad Ronald

I prefer "Empty Glass"

Tue. 8/19/08 9:10am From: Parq

Onion headline, just after the arrest: "Pete Townsend can't explain."

Tue. 8/19/08 9:11am From: C

I can see what you're saying. Actually, some of the Scoop albums he put out have some really interesting things on them too.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:16am From: gumby

Townsend & Lanes version of "Till the Rivers All Run Dry" was our wedding song. 20 years ago, damn I'm old. Still love that one and that whole Rough Mix record, still actually only have the record.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:18am From: Bad Ronald

Rough Mix is good as well as Who Came First?

Tue. 8/19/08 9:22am From: teddy mcfucklebuddy

wtf. talk about hard-to-google. us girls? fucking awesome song man.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:24am From: Scott

teddy, tell me about it! google "us girls" and "siltbreeze", that'll get you there.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:28am From: Lizardner Dave

Giorgio Moroder! You can't stop the music! Nobody can stop the music!

Tue. 8/19/08 9:28am From: teddy mcfucklebuddy

I feel lots better now, thanks for that

Tue. 8/19/08 9:34am From: Negator

Scott great set, but this S. Temple bit is sounding like Fatty JUBBO! FATTY! FATTY! FATTY! JUB-BO!

Tue. 8/19/08 9:35am From: Bad Ronald

Don't you worry be happy Peppermint Lump.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:35am From: Negator

Fatty is one fuckin' fucked fucker, don't you think? I love that guy! Fatty Jubb-bo.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:36am From: BZ

Scott Williams in the morning! The day's okay!

Tue. 8/19/08 9:37am From: Pamela

Hi Scott! Nice to have you around!
Of course, damn you to hell for getting Animal Crackers in my head.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:39am From: stingy d

oh snap the magic dragon... u.s. girls was at cake shop a week or so ago. i think... i didn't wanna pay to get in... now i can get the idea

Tue. 8/19/08 9:41am From: Negator

Ask US girl if she likes Lotto Ball or Brilliant Pebbles, Aleks and the drummer, Lovely Little Girls and Fatty Jubbo.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:42am From: Wait dude..what?

In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal

Tue. 8/19/08 9:43am From: stingy

wait what - you right tho kid you right

Tue. 8/19/08 9:47am From: gumby

To me today's worst weirdness is that there's more Dunkin Donuts than Gin Mills. What the hell happened?

Tue. 8/19/08 9:50am From: paula

"Ballad of El Goodo" -- I first heard this when I was 18, and I have not stopped weeping every time I hear it...

Tue. 8/19/08 9:51am From: stu

"the walls fell down" by the Marbles is one of the lost classics that only Scott Muni used to play on his "things from England" .

Tue. 8/19/08 9:51am From: GP

Morning all. Per usual this sounds like it is shaping up to be a fine show.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:53am From: stingy

gumby you rigth tho too kid you right

Tue. 8/19/08 9:56am From: Scott

Stu, you call me Scottso and I'll bust yo ass! Negator, I asked US Girls if she knew Fatty and she said no in such a way that I was convinced she had actually just killed him. Didn't think to ask about the Loto Ball Show, but she also had a murderous gaze when I told her Panicsville once gave me an air raid siren.

Tue. 8/19/08 9:56am From: teddy mcfucklebuddy

fyi homes fit for heroes was an episode of steptoe & son. it was on tv here again in australia a few weeks ago

Tue. 8/19/08 9:58am From: Tom in Dublin

Up the Marbles! [I am so 9:45]

Tue. 8/19/08 9:59am From: stu

Scott - I would never refer to you as Scottso, but I like your musical preferences. So don't be so quick as to become violent. Thanks for your understanding.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:00am From: stingy

hit him!

Tue. 8/19/08 10:01am From: noel

I'm loving this. I can't wait til you get your regular show back.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:02am From: GP

This is weird. Alan Vega playing "Jukebox Babe" was the first artist I ever heard that got me interested in "alternative radio" a LONG time ago. Talk about a blast from the past!

Tue. 8/19/08 10:03am From: Negator

Holy shit! Be careful around her...... What the fuck is going on in Chicago? Those peeps are nutz. I gues that's why I like them so much, right now.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:05am From: Scott

Noel, thanks a lot! Negator, wait'll you hear her talk about the den of murder she used to live in! Interview at 11...

Tue. 8/19/08 10:06am From: gumby

The Cubbies is what's going on in Chi-town.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:07am From: teddy mcfucklebuddy

whatever you do stay away from chicago in the spring when the snow melts. dog crap, fingers and benson & hedges butts everywhere. ick.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:14am From: jon

I dig the Vermillion Sands! thanks Scott.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:17am From: C

All the signs are there. Obama's gonna pick Hatch.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:19am From: gumby

WLIR WOW! When New Wave wasn't old hat yet.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:19am From: teddy mcfucklebuddy

he should totally pick john mccain to be his running mate just to fuck with his head and psyche him out

Tue. 8/19/08 10:19am From: Negator

Fishing tip: Never wind up "shark chum". Obama is running with Antony from Antony and the Johnsons.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:21am From: Hatch

Shhhhhhhh C, just wait for the text message, don't blow my cover. Why do you think I'm not in the studio today????

Tue. 8/19/08 10:21am From: stingy d

if obama doesn't pick bill bradley, you can pretty much conisder his preisdency a sham, the guy is just AWESOME on the wing, and has incredible court vision

Tue. 8/19/08 10:25am From: gumby

How about Yogi Berra for VP. He's as old as McCain and smarter.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:29am From: stingy d

bradley was a rhodes scholar... AND a gold medalist.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:30am From: jon

I am listening to this at work, thru earphones, and I am blushing.
Thanks Scott.

Tue. 8/19/08 10:31am From: Negator

"Came to me a woman and I'm gonna love you as a man"? Are they in a park restroom?

Tue. 8/19/08 10:32am From: GP

Celebrity sex tape ( literally) before there was YouTube

Tue. 8/19/08 10:48am From: SWAMI

Tue. 8/19/08 11:57am From: rada

Daltrey and Caruso are a winning pair

Tue. 8/19/08 11:57am From: LIzardner Dave

"At this point in the production, reverb can be added"

Tue. 8/19/08 11:57am From: jon
