Tue. 5/26/09 3:04pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

cool, we hit a Tony sub!

Tue. 5/26/09 3:05pm From: sahak

woohoo tony coulter!!!!!!

Tue. 5/26/09 3:11pm From: Galactic Overlord

Your peace-loving filking won't stop our conquest.

Tue. 5/26/09 3:16pm From: Cecile

Tony, you should really have a label and do a compilation of some of these crazy tracks...

Tue. 5/26/09 3:17pm From: sahak

word up

Tue. 5/26/09 3:19pm From: dc pat

man, you just gotta love the Tinklers.

Tue. 5/26/09 3:19pm From: Galactic Overlord

Attention Earthlings: Send more Chuck Berry - or prepare to be annihilated!

Tue. 5/26/09 3:19pm From: Cecile

This song was probably from the kneeslapping musical of Thomas Disch's "The Genocides"

Tue. 5/26/09 3:20pm From: Badder Aliens

You'll miss the Bad Aliens when we get through with you!!!

Tue. 5/26/09 3:21pm From: Tony C

Greetings all....

FMU is my compilation series....

- t

Tue. 5/26/09 3:23pm From: BSI

...and your compilation series is my spinal fluid...

Tue. 5/26/09 3:24pm From: Cecile

Yes, Tony.
But I need to have a portable version for when I'm not near a computer, and I need a fix!

Tue. 5/26/09 3:34pm From: dc pat

can you just play the Tinklers for the rest of the day?

Tue. 5/26/09 3:35pm From: Cecile

That's why you have to keep eating a little junk! ;)

Tue. 5/26/09 3:36pm From: Cecile

WOW. these are unique vocal stylings.

Tue. 5/26/09 3:36pm From: BSI

Another brave soldier falls victim to the devil mayonnaise...

But any remote Bobby Vinton reference can cure damn near anything. A fine choice, maestro Coulter.

Tue. 5/26/09 3:37pm From: Marshall Stacks

That Performing Ferret Band track was pretty great, too.

Tue. 5/26/09 3:38pm From: dc pat

goddamn this is crazy...

Tue. 5/26/09 3:39pm From: still b/p

You made me feel unwell with just the brief description of the lunch. Mayo has either mischievous or outright malevolent properties affecting body, mind and soul.
But the show otherwise is all feelgood.

Cecile recommends the Mithridates menu.

Tue. 5/26/09 3:41pm From: Cecile

I had to look it up, but yes!

Tue. 5/26/09 3:45pm From: Cecile

yay! Tinklers

Tue. 5/26/09 3:45pm From: still b/p

I knew someone who proposed that the early hot dogs of the summer season were inoculation against the later ones.

Is this Mister Rogers singing?

Tue. 5/26/09 3:45pm From: Cecile

Yo La Tengo, you need to do some Tinklers covers.

Tue. 5/26/09 3:46pm From: Worstest Aliens

We have your planet in our site. Play more Tinklers or face our deadly death rays.

Tue. 5/26/09 3:46pm From: Janet H

I thought I would stop by and say hello.

Tue. 5/26/09 3:52pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

that's very thoughtful...would you like to stay for some tea?

Tue. 5/26/09 3:52pm From: Janet H

is anyone here?

Tue. 5/26/09 3:53pm From: Janet H

I would love some tea...

Tue. 5/26/09 3:54pm From: PMD

What did I miss?

Tue. 5/26/09 3:55pm From: still b/p

When Lunch Attacks!
It was scary!

Tue. 5/26/09 3:57pm From: Cecile

And "The Genocides: The Musical!"

Tue. 5/26/09 4:02pm From: Janet H

This is my first time listening to Tony Coulter playlist

Tue. 5/26/09 4:03pm From: Andy

Sounds Finnish

Tue. 5/26/09 4:04pm From: Cecile

Janet, his shows are strange, lovely and magical.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:06pm From: Janet H

sounds nice...it's nice with the sound of the rain in the background too...very peaceful

Tue. 5/26/09 4:08pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

1969 sounds fun, too bad I was 1

Tue. 5/26/09 4:11pm From: PMD

Was Genocides: The Musical the sequel to When Lunch Attacks? Were they in 3d?

Tue. 5/26/09 4:11pm From: BSI

DCE:
Same here. But yet I manage to channel that year with eerie clarity....

Tue. 5/26/09 4:13pm From: dc pat

DCE: man was 1969 fun! It was kick ass ALL THE TIME. Well kindergarten was anyway...

Tue. 5/26/09 4:13pm From: Cecile

It was the When Lunch Attacks universe, but with an alternate timeline.

I was seven or eight, depending on the month.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:13pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

well, you wouldn't have a computer and a playlist to comment on, anyway

Tue. 5/26/09 4:14pm From: dc pat

but 196? was funner.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:14pm From: frenchee

oh man, I'm trippin HARD--watch out for that BEEEEEEEEEE

Tue. 5/26/09 4:15pm From: still b/p

PMD - Stories just thematically/dramatically related insofar as humans suffered, grew desperate and finished far from triumph.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:16pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

I think Tony knows his demographic target audience now!

Tue. 5/26/09 4:18pm From: Cecile

Yeah, late boomer/decrepit Gen Xer. ;D

Tue. 5/26/09 4:20pm From: Brendan

Dear Tony,
Did the Bourbons have an LP? Was "A Dark Corner" their only single?
Thank you very much!!

Tue. 5/26/09 4:20pm From: Janet H

I didn't come along until 1980

Tue. 5/26/09 4:20pm From: frenchee

guilty as charged, cecile!

Tue. 5/26/09 4:20pm From: Marshall Stacks

Really enjoying the show, Tony.
Is Acid Dreams an entire album of (good) bad trip anthems?

Tue. 5/26/09 4:21pm From: BSI

Cecile...that would be the "Gen Xer" that is statistically a "Gen Xer" but on the far early side, and routinely refuses to be part of that group, right?... count me in!

Tue. 5/26/09 4:22pm From: dc pat

I'm a blank gener

Tue. 5/26/09 4:22pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

Janet, we'll have to ask for a legal guardian's permission for you to hang out on the playlist. Please bring that next time.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:23pm From: Cecile

yep BSI!

Tue. 5/26/09 4:24pm From: The DEA

Hey, wait a minute! I see what is going on here with your clever theme set. We are not as dumb as we look.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:25pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

this is highly inappropriate. think of the children.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:25pm From: Jonathan Steinke

Or stand behind two guys at a BUS STOP (swear to God this happened this morning) and WATCH them get high.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:26pm From: Janet H

that song was scaring me....

Tue. 5/26/09 4:26pm From: Cecile

now I want some weed and to listen to Afroman

Tue. 5/26/09 4:27pm From: The DEA

I suppose next we will be hearing from David Peel and the Lower East Side you acid gobbling anti-social freak.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:30pm From: BSI

whoa, Captain Buzzkill mcFascist... well, some of us are gobblers, and others tend to sip and savour... Maybe it's a semi-non-gen-x thing...

Tue. 5/26/09 4:30pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

this is so right.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:32pm From: Cecile

Tony, do you have any Hampton Grease Band wih you?

Tue. 5/26/09 4:32pm From: still b/p

1969: Hap recorded Mod Marches while I boldly wore flare-leg pants and an apache tie on the last day of 5th grade, both prohibited by Sister Anacita. We rose up, rose up! Power to the pee-wees!
But never for 1 minute have I felt part of the BB gen.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:34pm From: Cecile

Nor I, still b/p.
Never.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:37pm From: George Eliot

word

Tue. 5/26/09 4:37pm From: BSI

hey! Lets hear it for tri-colored brownish velour collared shirts with those weird metal ring zipper-pulls! Who-hoo!

Tue. 5/26/09 4:39pm From: Cecile

I was wearing my husband to be's velour shirts in the late 70s and he had one of those!

Tue. 5/26/09 4:40pm From: PMD

I love walking down the street, and smelling the sweet smell of xxx, and trying to figure out where it's coming from.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:41pm From: Andy

Jetzt wird's echt hier

Tue. 5/26/09 4:43pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

this man was haunted by demons.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:43pm From: PMD

Genau.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:44pm From: Marshall Stacks

Probably. He's got a talk show.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:44pm From: Cecile

What is the status of that Jerry Solomon box? I need to know.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:46pm From: still b/p

Solomon, 3 words: Too much mayo.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:47pm From: Tony C

Actually haven't heard anything about Solomon reissues. Would sure be nice....

- t

Tue. 5/26/09 4:51pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

Steve Hayes put all this work into this guitar solo, but forgot to tune the guitar first.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:51pm From: Cecile

his guitar tech was on vacation.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:53pm From: Cecile

So, Tony, which is your favorite non-accidentally-funny Jesus-rock record?

Tue. 5/26/09 4:54pm From: frenchee

ayeeeee! Free to cram 8,000 words per stanza into a song! For Jesus!

Tue. 5/26/09 4:55pm From: Tony C

That's tough -- probably Harbinger ... but don't hold me to that...

- t

Tue. 5/26/09 4:56pm From: Cecile

I won't! I don't know if I've heard Harbinger.

Tue. 5/26/09 4:58pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

time to go home! have a nice night, you freaks.

Tue. 5/26/09 5:02pm From: Cecile

you too, you freak.

Tue. 5/26/09 5:07pm From: Cecile

Tony, how do you feel about the George Edwards Group reissues?

Tue. 5/26/09 5:09pm From: Tony C

You know, I haven't gotten the Drag City reish yet, so can't comment....

- t

Tue. 5/26/09 5:16pm From: annie

i am here and listening, just busy...

Tue. 5/26/09 5:20pm From: annie

i thought he said cars.... even funnier

Tue. 5/26/09 5:20pm From: mike

stax dave porter?

Tue. 5/26/09 5:21pm From: Cecile

I was really surprised to see it come out.
I got it last year, almost to the day.

they were great, they threw in a free solo project CD.

Hi annie!

Tue. 5/26/09 5:21pm From: annie

hi cecile, nice to see you up to par~

Tue. 5/26/09 5:24pm From: Cecile

I'm doing a'ok considering! thanks...

Tue. 5/26/09 5:25pm From: Carmichael

Just sticking my head in the cyber-door to say Hi Tony, kick ass set and I just bought Odessa this weekend! Can't wait to get home and stroke the velvet some more.

If you know what I mean.

Alright, I've contributed enough ....

Tue. 5/26/09 5:27pm From: Mike F.

Really digging this set.

Tue. 5/26/09 5:29pm From: J

Hasn't someone covered the song "Where do clouds go"?

Tue. 5/26/09 5:33pm From: Mike F.

a search for "Where do the clouds go" on last.fm only returns Nicole Eitner

Tue. 5/26/09 5:37pm From: J

Yah I don't see anything either. I thought it might have been the Free Design. Oh well

Tue. 5/26/09 5:38pm From: Mike F.

you can listen to the track by Nicole Eitner there on last.fm, though i wouldn't recommend it.

http://www.last.fm/music/Nicole+Eitner/_/09+Where+Do+The+Clouds+Go_?autostart

Tue. 5/26/09 5:40pm From: Cecile

I'll bet there's not 10,000 acoustic guitars on there.
Deceptive packaging.

Tue. 5/26/09 5:42pm From: Mike F.

They're on there, they're just not being strummed. and isn't that really a more powerfull message after all?

Tue. 5/26/09 5:45pm From: Cecile

These obscure singer-songwriters have almost redeemed the genre for me. It's just so raw and and angry for mellow music.

Tue. 5/26/09 5:57pm From: Matt

Another Tony Coulter show, another French musician who's discography I need.

Tue. 5/26/09 5:57pm From: frenchee

great show, Tony!

Tue. 5/26/09 5:58pm From: Ike

Nifty!

Sun. 5/31/09 2:17pm From: Franz W.

Hello Tony
Thank you for giving the opportunity to hear some of the very private releases of those loner folkpsychs. Some were reissued or put by some blogs for download, but the highly sought after are in collectors hand besides of the very low number of records, distributed amongst the artist's friends.
So, wmfu allows to hear some highlights of that genre.
To name a few, it would be great to hear the complete setlist of Mark Tramo`s Apotheosis or the Godz-like Virgil Caine, maybe, it would be a focalpoint for an evening to present the whole work to internalize the deep idea from these records, as meant by the authors.
I still miss "Mistress Mary Housewife", also listed on the best 50 private releases. I've done a cd-r from my original record, I assume, there'll never be out a reissue.
Thank you for your program, the www make it possible for Austria
Greetings Franz

Thu. 6/4/09 5:36pm From: spaniel

I just listened, actually am listening to the second time to your first set. Funny, scary, bizarre and interesting, really enjoying it. especially, "looking for the black hair girls", and "...four slice of bread", all great though.

Sun. 9/27/09 10:56pm From: barely69sChild

Does anyone remember a very old 45 record that was no music or lyrics.; Just Walking as if thru a cave; moaning slightly occasionally. Heavy steps walk a long ways, then; He reaches the end. A loud noise; n a loud moan. It's really scarey as a young child. Can't come up with it anywhere now. Plz help if you know this record.
