hola, scott!

Thu. 2/19/09 12:06pm From: Cecile

Scott, do you have any MX-80 (sound) floating around?

Thu. 2/19/09 12:10pm From: Cecile

YOU ARE SO AWESOME!

Thu. 2/19/09 12:10pm From: PMD

Scott! Hi! Listening as I budget cut... Make happy noise, please.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:12pm From: Cecile

I love these guys...so...much

Thu. 2/19/09 12:14pm From: annie

oooh, man i was gonna go and cut wood... i have to get speakers for the window.. .. i'll just wait.. i have time.. hehe

Thu. 2/19/09 12:14pm From: m turner

thank you so much for playing this. it's making me nostalgic for okinawa.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:15pm From: Cecile

Wasn't this the song that Thompson/Frith/Kaiser and Reynolds covered?

Thu. 2/19/09 12:15pm From: Sean Daily

Ninth comment! Woo hoo!

Thu. 2/19/09 12:16pm From: Marshall Stacks

Haisai Ojisan sounds so familiar... Maybe Cecile nailed it.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:16pm From: Parq

This Shoukichi Kina is way-cute. It reminds me of those giddy manga illustrations my daughter used to dig.

(Scott, don't be afraid of Pokemon for Lila, it makes for a much cooler kid than that pseudo-educational stuff.)

Thu. 2/19/09 12:18pm From: Cecile

Parqkachoo, I choose you! LOLOl!

Thu. 2/19/09 12:22pm From: still b/p

I may have to get Haisai Ojisan as an all-purpose gloom purger for my place. "In case of gloom, break glass, play track, gambol."

Thu. 2/19/09 12:24pm From: Cecile

and frolic, too?

Thu. 2/19/09 12:26pm From: still b/p

....all over, I say, all ooooovah the furnitchah!

Thu. 2/19/09 12:28pm From: Parq

Still, if you get that together, I will pay you to install a clone in my office.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:28pm From: Marshall Stacks

When gamboling and frolicking, don't forget to caper.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:28pm From: postmanpaul

aaaaagh! no cigarette papers.

it can wait, no it can't, aaaaaagh!

Thu. 2/19/09 12:31pm From: PMD

Annie, how do you ever get anything done?

Thu. 2/19/09 12:32pm From: AnAnonymousParty

Blissed out Rag is kind of like Guitar Trio, but more complex.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:33pm From: Parq

Scott, what a jaw-dropping-open first set this is!

Thu. 2/19/09 12:35pm From: annie

i devote the first part of my day to research, posting said info,etc... then putter around the house ...if i find alot of info to post it takes longer..
i seem to be able to fit everything in.. also.. i have no job yet. soon i will be out in the garden and on farms where i will be working.. i will be rare here.. :(

Thu. 2/19/09 12:35pm From: AnAnonymousParty

For some reason I want to hear Janis Joplin singing Out of Focus.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:37pm From: annie

i admit, i love this morning routine, which oftentime stretches to three. a nice squall is allowing me to postpone my trip outside.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:38pm From: Marshall Stacks

This (Transfiguration on a Sepiachord) is great, Reminds me a bit of the Clean.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:44pm From: stingy d

hey scott did you ever get any feedback on the college class you helped teach a while back?

Thu. 2/19/09 12:46pm From: Cecile

great minds, man.

Hey, stingy!

Thu. 2/19/09 12:48pm From: Cecile

YAH! I still have this album

Thu. 2/19/09 12:50pm From: Lou

These guys need to do a reunion tour

Thu. 2/19/09 12:50pm From: stingy d

Thu. 2/19/09 12:52pm From: stingy d

it says sprocket not socket!!

Thu. 2/19/09 12:52pm From: postmanpaul

scott, that first set was best first wfmu set ever this year.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:54pm From: Scott

Hi everyone, and thanks a ton for the verry kind wordzes. Stingy, yeah, seemed ilke there was a ton of feedback while that show was happening. Gen Ken said the academic feedback was slammin.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:54pm From: stingy d

oh you wanna know what's cool? i met andrew wk... nicest guy, quiet.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:56pm From: stingy d

oh that's cool. i would debate going to college if they told me to listen to the radio.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:56pm From: postmanpaul

and now for a cuppa and feet up for five mins. (first idle comment, woohoo)

Thu. 2/19/09 12:56pm From: Cecile

Andrew WK is awesome. I wish he'd make another record.

He probably bought records from me back in the day in Ann Arbor, and I don't even remember him.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:57pm From: BSI

Destroy All Monsters!
It is a good day after all....

Thu. 2/19/09 12:57pm From: Cecile

hay, scott! How about some 11th dream day?

Thu. 2/19/09 12:58pm From: stingy d

well he was working on something. in the meantime, check aleister x and lee perry for his productions.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:59pm From: Scott

Awrright Cecile, take it easy!

Thu. 2/19/09 12:59pm From: johN

Hi. Love ya. Keep it coming. Amen. Back to work.

Thu. 2/19/09 12:59pm From: Cecile

I know he's done some stuff with to live and shave and LA, and also helping out his A2 buddies Wolf Eyes from time to time.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:00pm From: owen

yeah, and apparently he parties pretty hard too...

Thu. 2/19/09 1:01pm From: Cecile

can't help it, Scott, the show is inspiring me!

Thu. 2/19/09 1:01pm From: stingy d

pum pum come and pum pum go. it's awrright.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:02pm From: stingy d

santo's party house has the best sound system in new york city!

Thu. 2/19/09 1:03pm From: Cecile

do they have mean doormen? Cause I'd like to go there some century.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:05pm From: stingy d

uh... they are big and uninterested. i bet if they generate an interest in you, they are a laugh riot though.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:05pm From: Marshall Stacks

Awreety awrighty awrooty!

Thu. 2/19/09 1:05pm From: fishmonkeystew

Thanks for the ZAPPA, Scott!

Thu. 2/19/09 1:08pm From: thecleef

zappa made my day

Thu. 2/19/09 1:11pm From: stingy d

i feel like i've met more people that dislike the beatles than dislike frank zappa. i personally dislike frank zappa, and no one ever seems to agree with me. but i could certainly find someone to dislike the beatles if i felt like it. why is that?

Thu. 2/19/09 1:13pm From: Mark

I find the opposite is true. I think it's easier to find lots more people who dislike or don't know of Frank zappa than finding one person who actively dislikes the beatles. That's just me.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:14pm From: postmanpaul

caus you/they didn't drop any californian sunshine in the 70's perhaps stingy d.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:15pm From: Cecile

The only Zappa albums I like are the Grand Wazoo, Freak Out and Reuben and the Jets.
I don't like any others.

I'm appreciating the Beatles the further I get away from the 70s and their worst songs getting all the airplay on the radio.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:15pm From: stingy d

yea mark but i think i mean more in terms of people who are firmly aware of both.

acid sucks your brains off.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:15pm From: Bad Ronald

I saw Zappa cover "I Am the Walrus" and I loved it!

Thu. 2/19/09 1:16pm From: Franklyn MacCormack

I've found that people who dislike the Beatles, but not Zappa, nevertheless also dislike Yoko Ono. But those who dislike both Zappa and the Beatles at least appreciate Yoko's work...except her occasional uncredited appearances on Zappa's recordings. Then there are those who are perfectly blasé as to the Beatles and most post-1980 Zappa, but who also dislike Yoko, particularly her work with Elephant's Memory, and yet early Zappa and the Mothers is the bee's knees to these folks! Go figure.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:16pm From: BSI

HOLY CRAP! My mind is transporting me to a peaceful place! How the EFF did this happen?!?!?!

Thu. 2/19/09 1:18pm From: stingy d

i want to hear the golding institute suddenly.

yea i guess we can probably conclude that all types of people exist. and sweeping statements also exist in people. yoko is the bee's knees to me's.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:20pm From: Cecile

scott, you got mail.

I love that you just played the Tall Dwarfs.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:24pm From: Stannerlee

Now, the Residents......everybody likes them.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:25pm From: stingy d

on the contrary

Thu. 2/19/09 1:26pm From: Cecile

down, down down, ships are going down!

Thu. 2/19/09 1:26pm From: BSI

Stannerlee;
god I hope so.
ESKIMO changed my life.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:27pm From: Cecile

cheer-accident - I didn't know they had this kind of 70s prog vibe to them...

Thu. 2/19/09 1:43pm From: Ike

This show is terrific so far. I am so fascinated that my job is failing to make me tear my hair out. So, WFMU = hair!

Wait, this is sunny?!?

Thu. 2/19/09 1:45pm From: annie

only one, one, dj will claim my measly donation...narrowing it down...

Thu. 2/19/09 1:48pm From: Parq

Wasn't "Whittier Batter" the poet who read at Millard Filmore's innauguration?

Thu. 2/19/09 1:53pm From: paul from Sheffield UK

this is all terrific stuff. I'm glad I was led to this station. Hello to all the Americans in the former colonies.

Thu. 2/19/09 1:56pm From: J-O

Sounds like Ofege!

Thu. 2/19/09 2:08pm From: JEff m

thanks Scott, love this song

Thu. 2/19/09 2:10pm From: dragonflyshards

Yoko's earlier work wasn't as annoyingly uninspired;i thought the only tollerable material on double fantasy was yoko's...but john & geo were brilliant w th beatles.You cant tell from radio...and zappa does have at least 1 excellent record:ImaginaryDiseases.(uncleMeat is interesting,too)...And i hear there's a time capsule full of stuff that's not as contrived & juvenile as most of the Mothers' releases were.check it out.(i know that's about n hour go-just got on.)PS HiScott-i've missed you.'only heard th show once since you were on in the evening.

Thu. 2/19/09 2:16pm From: Doug from DC

I love Zappa's albums with the Mothers, but Burnt Weenie Sandwich, Hot Rats and especially Chunga's Revenge are his best. As for the Residents, Duck Stab has got to be their best ever, although I know at least one person who's more into their later work.

Thu. 2/19/09 2:22pm From: Doug from DC

Is he sampling the canine heart sounds record here?

Thu. 2/19/09 2:24pm From: SJ

Wrong speed on the Spider!

Thu. 2/19/09 2:26pm From: Scott

I know SJ, that's on purpose.

Thu. 2/19/09 2:27pm From: SJ

Please excuse my backseat driving!! Manipulate away!

Thu. 2/19/09 2:28pm From: Mark from London UK

Strange stuff guys...but really enjoying it all...

Thu. 2/19/09 2:29pm From: dragonflyshards

thankyou,Doug. i have a friend who's job is to convert me,but he's slow about it.'did perk up my ears,though,w.I.diseases-& liked AbsalutelyFreeeeee when i was little...i'll ask him about those 3.

Thu. 2/19/09 2:39pm From: rskull

When it comes to Zappa, I ONLY like the Mothers' stuff. Even then really only Abs Free and Freak Out! I know some fanatics who love it all, but that fusion-y later stuff is not for me.

Thu. 2/19/09 2:39pm From: BSI

Doug:
Good call on Duck Stab. They kinda lost me with most releases after King & Eye (there's just the one original member left, right?), but the early stuff is crucial. Also, huge Hot Rats fan here.

Thu. 2/19/09 2:42pm From: Doug from DC

Hey BSI, Jason from Pilesar just sent me the link to an amazing YouTube vid of robot music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CdA-ivDj8o

Thu. 2/19/09 2:44pm From: Parq

Ass-kicking show today, Scott. Exceptional even by your standards. And I enjoyed reading the chat on all the old weirdo music that first set me on the road that led to FMU. Suprpised no one's brought up Pere Ubu, seeing as you played 'em and all, but good talk all the same.

Thu. 2/19/09 2:46pm From: Scott

Thanks a lot Parq! Been fun

Thu. 2/19/09 2:48pm From: BSI

Scott:
great christ, man, that's the BSI number one tune of all time. Huge thanks.

Thu. 2/19/09 2:49pm From: BSI

master of the universe, that is.

Thu. 2/19/09 2:52pm From: Marshall Stacks

Really a great show, thanks.

Thu. 2/19/09 2:54pm From: Marshall Stacks

p.s. Good luck with the Marathon. I already pledged!

Thu. 2/19/09 2:59pm From: Mark from London UK

Thanks - first time I've listened to the show...I'll have to figure out when it starts GM time...

Fri. 2/20/09 3:27pm From: emc
