Starting with the 70s -- it could be a classic (or obscure) punk rocker, a forgotten disco diva, a long-unheard hit record, or none of these. What happens next depends on what's in the WFMU new bin and whether I remember my records from home. Tune in and find out! You'll even hear a live band once in a while.

Cactus?! More Bogert and Appice, plz.
I think this is setting the tone quite nicely.
Tue. 3/24/09 11:09pm
From:
efd
I think any band that Carmine Appice was in would work in this opening set.
Except maybe late-70s Rod Stewart.

You're a drummer... ever read his book?
Tue. 3/24/09 11:13pm
From:
Matt
This set is a MONSTER!
Tue. 3/24/09 11:16pm
From:
john
I think you'd just need to find the right version of Do Ya Think I'm Sexy, on which I believe the aforementioned Mr. Appice gets co-writing credit. Vanilla Fudge, perhaps.

Matt, if you like this set just wait til you hear Cyclone 60!
Joe, haven't read the book - have you?
Tue. 3/24/09 11:25pm
From:
Joe
Guy I used to work with was a multi-instrumentalist... said it was the best book on drumming he'd ever read.
Personally, I have trouble walking and talking at the same time without falling flat on my face... not exactly drummer material.

Bernard Purdie needs to do an audiobook or something.
He CARRIES that Steely Dan DVD.

Hey, that was at least two thundertrain fun facts!
Tue. 3/24/09 11:32pm

Isn't Bernard Purdie the guy who said he played all of Ringo's drum parts?

I can't wait to see them play Psychoaster Eureka on saturday (and the space helmet)

You're right, John! I wasn't thinking that was a two-in-one!

don't forget the smoke machine.
Tue. 3/24/09 11:42pm
From:

if only we'd done the session today! apparently the film crew had a smoke machine here earlier.

compliments to the photographer, EFD. Pics are totally dope.

i would just like to call everyone's attention to the gorgeous blue Vistalites in the photos at the top of the playlist. Now those are DRUMS.

Wooooo!

So quiet in here. Is everyone's internet down, too?
Set killed. I'm glad I resisted the urge to put on my Vanilla Fudge album.

Hi Amanda, and thanks! My theory is that Cyclone 60 left everyone too stunned to type.

From:
Joe
Well, I was going to make a serial killer joke about the studio phones being dead, but I didn't want to appear to be monopolizing the comments board.
You know, until that opening set, I didn't realize it, but now I'm very much of the opinion that Mr. Fiberglass is simply the reincarnation of Jim Bogert, wearing a motorcycle helmet.
Wait, he's still alive. Who was the guy who got machine gunned?
Wed. 3/25/09 12:53am
From:
C
Was Ultimate Realistic Rock the book you guys were talking about earlier? Sorry I missed it. Would it be good for a beginner or is it more geared towards seasoned drummers?
Wed. 3/25/09 12:58am
From:
Danne D
EFD out causing insomnia again :)
Good job as always, sir.
-DD
Wed. 3/25/09 12:59am
From:
Joe
Yo C-
Yeah that's the book, like I said, I'm not a drummer, and I haven't read it, however the person who I know -did- read it apparently used it to supplement his beginner lessons. He was also a pretty particular guy in general, and the book is still in print, so I'd imagine it's as solid as they come.
Bonus: Amazon review says "It was innovative---cutting edge, and also appealed to a wide range of students ranging from relative beginners to experienced set players."
God bless you drummers and your crazy flailing.
Wed. 3/25/09 1:01am
From:

Cool! Thanks, Joe. I might check it out. Sounds like a winner.
Wed. 3/25/09 1:03am

No problem.
Must... resist... Eno... Tiger Mountain... pun...

Yay yay yay I am going to see A.C. Newman in Brooklyn this Sunday. Joe, I keep trying to think of good joke answers to your machine-gun question but they are not forthcoming.
Wed. 3/25/09 1:18am
From:
Joe
I got scared for a minute that I made that up in my head - but Wikipedia confirms that Rusty Day, the lead singer of Cactus, was actually machine gunned to death by the guitarist in his band after a coke deal gone bad. Not fun, but definitely a rockstar way to go out. Might make my top 5.
Wed. 3/25/09 1:21am
From:
Joe
Not to.. um... make myself suspect...
but it's actually "Taylor" Hanson.
Wed. 3/25/09 1:22am
From:
efd
Duly noted, Joe.
In more ways than one.
Wed. 3/25/09 1:24am
From:
Joe
Ohhhh man, you got me good.

That burn is going in my Top 5 rockstar ways for Joe to go out.

let's all go to the clemente soto velez cultural center on april 4th!!!

From:

I don't get it... what's happening there then?
Wed. 3/25/09 1:53am
From:
Joe
Something sweet, if it's got Stingy D involved.
Wed. 3/25/09 1:55am
From:
Amanda
I was considering just going there and seeing if you all showed up.
Wed. 3/25/09 1:57am

Hey Evan, Thanks for the Moon Martin! I think it sounded alot more new wave in '79, but it's still good. Cheers! Jim
