Thu. 6/11/09 9:04am From: Bad Ronald

Howdy Annie, how's the pooch?

Thu. 6/11/09 9:05am From: still b/p

The Changes cover was entertaining even while distinctly low v-v-voltage. Now...these St. Ives sistahs are SPARKED!

re show title, Bill Cosby on neighbor reactions to his pet rhinoceros: "Oh my, you -- uh -- you have a rhinoceros. ----- We used to have a rhinoceros --- "

nice surprise to hear Tony back on air! where does he dig thhis great stuff up?

Thu. 6/11/09 9:28am From: diane

Hi there!
Hooray for tony coulter!

Thu. 6/11/09 9:36am From: annie

oregon, land of mixed messages! i love the left side, myself.. but love the desert side, too. what city?

Thu. 6/11/09 9:36am From: Listener James from Westwood

Did I just hear that Tony's heading to the Pacific Northwest?!

Thu. 6/11/09 9:39am From: Parq

Oregon's gain is our loss for sure. I wonder if Greasy Kid Stuff''s current employer allows H&B to appoint an occasional uncle to substitute.

Thu. 6/11/09 9:39am From: dc pat

NICE! Don't think I ever heard the original Green Fuz. This is amazing.

Thu. 6/11/09 9:42am From: Listener James from Westwood

It is indeed Oregon's gain. If this will mean an indefinite hiatus from the mighty FMU microphone, Tony, thanks for all of the fine DJing and beautiful music over the years. Your show comprises some of my earliest FMU memories.

Thu. 6/11/09 9:43am From: annie

james..... yes, too.

Thu. 6/11/09 9:44am From: annie

funny, this week has evoked many nostalgic feelings. bittersweet.

Thu. 6/11/09 9:49am From: dc pat

I gotta say, I don't always dig the tunes you play Tony, but one thing's for sure--you always totally alter the film going on around me and that's why I listen to the radio.

Thu. 6/11/09 9:51am From: annie

pat, i love that idea.

Thu. 6/11/09 9:52am From: Bad Ronald

Yes nostalgic indeed.
Even Phil Spector pines for his wig:

I have fond memories of when Tony used to do the afternoon new music thing on wkcr...sigh.....

Thu. 6/11/09 9:53am From: doug from dc

Slow and bulbous.

Thu. 6/11/09 9:55am From: TonyC

Ha ha - very funny Beefheart reference, Doug from DC ... and thanks for the nice words, James from Westwood

Thu. 6/11/09 9:58am From: doug from dc

Thanks, Tony. Just read the sad news about Hugh Hopper. I was unaware of his passing until this morning.

Thu. 6/11/09 9:59am From: question...

Regarding old psychedelia, does anyone have the Paisley Cowbell album? I've been on the hunt for this thing for years, and it is hard to find anyone who has even heard of it.

Definitely going to miss your musical sensibilities here, Tony. Always love the wild variety of your programing. Best of luck in all of your future endeavors.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:00am From: PMD

Thanks so much Tony. Making my mind numbing work today bearable...

Thu. 6/11/09 10:01am From: postmanpaul

hi tony, city slackers 'n offiicionados!!!
over here in the lovely 70's, j airplane typified the US folk-turn-acid scene and nice that you are filling in the detail with sounds that are new to me tony!

Thu. 6/11/09 10:01am From: PMD

Oh crap, just reading comments. Tony's leaving? sigh. Will miss you. But Oregon is a wonderful place. I would live there if I could.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:02am From: annie

PMP- :) nice to see you, hope all is happy your way

Thu. 6/11/09 10:04am From: postmanpaul

yeah annieeeee!
hope it is in your neck of the woods too!

Thu. 6/11/09 10:06am From: annie

'tis paul, tis. birght green water-logged surroundings and over-whelming gardening chores, makes me pretty happy.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:06am From: Roberto L

Hey Tony! I´m listening from Argentina... and I can´t believe you played Miguel Abuelo for us! How do you get it?

Thu. 6/11/09 10:07am From: ?

Hi, Annie!
Hi, Tony!
Hi eveyrone!!!!

Thu. 6/11/09 10:08am From: annie

Thu. 6/11/09 10:08am From: Cecile

Cecile

Thu. 6/11/09 10:09am From: Bad Ronald

Hi Cecile.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:12am From: PMD

annie, thanks. no more flooded basement, so things are good.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:13am From: annie

morning cecile..

Thu. 6/11/09 10:14am From: annie

pmd- those pics of your basement.. so sorry :(

Thu. 6/11/09 10:16am From: postmanpaul

hi cecile, hi bad. 15.15 here and time for a leetle smokey me thinks.
amazing, Garden of Delights (1968) sounds so much like our Devine Comedy.
gobsmacked by your selections tony.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:16am From: dale

'chrome covered candy bars and plastic coated tangerines." amazing lyrics!

Thu. 6/11/09 10:21am From: annie

this is all so deliciously psychedelic! drug-free high!

Thu. 6/11/09 10:23am From: postmanpaul

tony, you're making me feel 7teen again!!!

Thu. 6/11/09 10:23am From: Cecile

man, it is a lovely sunny cool day here today.
want to camp out in front of a place with a hot coffee.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:24am From: postmanpaul

off out now, adios amigos.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:24am From: annie

yeah PMP, this is the kind of music that makes me miss that era. great memories.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:32am From: annie

tony, i want to thank you for this blast. i grew up listening to songs of activism like this. i am reminded that the struggle will always be there; what we do with our knowledge is the important thing. earlier this week i was feeling discouraged by the lack of involvement. that's not the case; .. it is still there. thanks. i'm peaceful now.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:37am From: Negator

You are the best DJ on this station (to me) and I will be missing your show a lot. I would suggest a podcast for us? It would be great if you could keep expanding our minds from the comfort of Oregon. I really don't want to think to much about a Tony C. free music world. Please, do a podcast! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE! Like Fatty Jubbo.......

Thu. 6/11/09 10:38am From: Cecile

I have to agree. You are one of my very favorites, and I learn so much every show.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:38am From: Negator

Maybe others could chime in?

Thu. 6/11/09 10:38am From: Bad Ronald

YES! I love this single. Can you please play the flip "So Afraid Of The Russians"?

Thu. 6/11/09 10:38am From: dc pat

so who was I talking soccer with yesterday? Carmichael? England did a little better than I thought! 6-0. what a slaughter...

Thu. 6/11/09 10:39am From: Parq

Hi 'Cile. Are you feeling 100%? God, northeasterners, is this June one lousy April or what?

Thu. 6/11/09 10:41am From: dc pat

I like rain but this is getting ridiculous.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:41am From: annie

a very wet and prolonged spring parq. i've discovered hundreds of variations on a theme of mold! at least the ditch stopped the water from going under the house, though. no more musty smell in the mudroom.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:43am From: -max-

Parq, I beg to differ. I like a cool moist Spring! So much better than going from Winter to Summer as we have done so many times in recent memory.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:44am From: Cecile

Parq, I'm getting close.
I don't mind the rain so much. I just wish I were off work to enjoy it - like hanging out in a coffee house or snuggled up in bed.

and Lord, minnesota needs the rain. We got barely in May.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:45am From: Cecile

I haven't heard this Eis since WCBN 27 years ago...

Thu. 6/11/09 10:46am From: annie

my brownfield farm report says that there are some states in the midwest that still have yet to dry out enough to plant.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:47am From: -max-

To "Question": I have heard of the Paisley Cowbell album but have never seen it or heard it! I still check out that psychedelic webstation, Technicolor Web of Sound, from time to time to see if they have it, but no luck!

Thu. 6/11/09 10:48am From: G

is this june 11th in nyc or april 11th? i haven't seen sun since monday morning, bleh. music helps though

Thu. 6/11/09 10:51am From: annie

see, i think i trust mother nature. this has been a pretty normal spring so far. we have gotten used to this warm early springs, we forget about the transition that must happen between seasons.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:51am From: doug from dc

Great selection of '80s obscurities. Thanks for playing Wirtschaftswunder, I've been looking for their stuff.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:52am From: Cecile

Tony, do you have enough stuff to do an all Zick Zack label show? Because I've loved everything I've heard on that label.

Thu. 6/11/09 10:56am From: G

we have 150 years of daily and hourly records in nyc, which is not the sum total of world history but not nothing either. yesterday it was in the 60s (F), and the average high for june 10th historically is 79. yes, we have to accept reality -- that's usually a good plan. but i don't think we have to agree that it is average; it's cooler and wetter than average. we got march already. and will get a november in november. this is our only june this year :-(

Thu. 6/11/09 10:58am From: dc pat

this song is sooooo true...

Thu. 6/11/09 10:58am From: doug from dc

My turn for nostalgia. In 1980, I was on vacation in NYC and went by Rock's in Your Head. I bought a bunch of 7"s, including this Anemic Boyfriends. I've still got my copy. I believe they were from Alaska.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:00am From: doug from dc

They'll even do it with sheep!

Thu. 6/11/09 11:00am From: annie

G- i have to admit, the damp is getting to me. i'm gonna run out of transplanting chores soon, and soil to wet to "plough" speaking of which, there is a great photo essay book entitled that very thing "too wet to plough"; photos from all decades of upstate new york farming.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:06am From: Janet H

LABELS...lol

Thu. 6/11/09 11:11am From: doug from dc

The RIAA is gonna have fun tracking down some of these bands to give them their $0.85.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:13am From: annie

funny, doug i was just thinking the same thing when the college station made us do that twice a year. i tried to play the most obscure and random crap i could. choosing an older label over another for the same tune. i felt so evil in a good way.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:15am From: BSI

Aieee! I finally tuned in to find I've missed most of a Tony Coulter show! Dagnabbit!

This means you must go back and repeat everything. Can't wait for archives! Time machine! It's a bleeding tree! It's a bleeding tree!

Thu. 6/11/09 11:18am From: annie

hatch just posted the summer schedule

Thu. 6/11/09 11:18am From: back & backer

Forbidden words: Aieee. Dagnabbit

Recommended words: Would your dog be liking the delicious cupcake?

Thu. 6/11/09 11:21am From: Carmichael

Good morning Tony and fellow work-avoiders. Yes Pat, it was I who was waaaaay off on the England/Andorra match. 6 bleedin' nil!

I was just in Haight Ashbury on Saturday. Great set Tony. Spinal Tap's "Listen to the Flower People" would fit nicely.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:21am From: Cecile

nice! love the cupcake dog shoutour

Thu. 6/11/09 11:23am From: BSI

Wow, haven't had a chance to suss the new schedule. My universe has shifted. ... and I'm glad I'm not the only surviving cupcake torch-bearer. Never forget. Never forget.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:24am From: Cecile

Wm Berger is back, but where is Bill E. Jam?
And Irene's show is shorter. Interesting.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:24am From: BSI

those eyes...

Thu. 6/11/09 11:24am From: dc pat

England keeps playing like this, they're going to give my teams trouble...

Thu. 6/11/09 11:24am From: Carmichael

Surfing Directv the other day, I came across a video of Paul Williams singing The Rainbow Connection with a passel of kids. Like seeing a train wreck, I couldn't stop watching.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:24am From: Rainbow

Yes kid you certainly are high. Now get off my Indigo please.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:25am From: BSI

no Fabio on the skeddy?
I haven't been able to catch his show in a couple o'weeks, been out of the loop.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:26am From: Cecile

no fabio, that's right.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:28am From: annie

wow, no fabio...

Thu. 6/11/09 11:28am From: doug from dc

BSI, I just noticed that Fabio was off the new schedule. I'll miss his show, but William Berger does a good set. Hope Billy Jam will be back some day.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:31am From: G

my memory's hazy, but fabio and/or scott (both of them off for now) made some comment last night that hinted that was his penultimate show. about the changes in general, only someone knowing the parties (and being told the emmes) would know whether any changes are summer-only or longer-term, and pushed or jumped...

Thu. 6/11/09 11:32am From: Carmichael

Billy still has his place on the schedule. Will he not be doing it tomorrow?

Thu. 6/11/09 11:32am From: Cecile

I hope he's just taking the summer off. Have to ask him Friday.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:33am From: Cecile

new schedule this summer, carm, annie just posted the link.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:33am From: G

new schedule starts week after next

Thu. 6/11/09 11:35am From: Carmichael

OK, got it. Not too much of a change overall, although I have never heard David's show.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:37am From: BSI

Between the loss of Fabio and Argentina's standings in the qualifiers, I may need sedation soon. ... But Tony Coulter eases the pain...

Thu. 6/11/09 11:38am From: G

david was just on a couple of monday mornings back 9-12, i assume (now) to warm up some... check his setlist/archive for what it will probably be like...

Thu. 6/11/09 11:43am From: Jeremy

Hey Tony! GREAT to have you back. You are the best. I have to hook up a radio to my bike; I missed 40 minutes between breakfast and work....

Thu. 6/11/09 11:50am From: Tony C

Thanks, Jeremy! And everybody else fer listenin'...

Thu. 6/11/09 11:51am From: PMD

Annie, thanks for posting the link. Just got back from a meeting.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:52am From: annie

my pleasure PMD... :)

Thu. 6/11/09 11:52am From: PMD

On the subject of rain, well, let's just say it's great for the plants, bad for the basement.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:54am From: BSI

bad for basements, true, and very bad for synths too oddly-shaped to get a cheap waterproof gigbag. sigh...

Thu. 6/11/09 11:55am From: dc pat

I've only watered the tomatoes once since planting month and half ago.

Thu. 6/11/09 11:59am From: Ike

Good to hear you on the air again -- that set of 80s oddness especially tickled my ivories.
