Hi, Joe! Good morning! How's it going?
Sat. 9/19/09 6:08am
From:
Joe
Hey, Sue! I'm rubbing the sand from my eyes. What about you?
Sat. 9/19/09 6:12am
From:
Sue
Same here, man. I've been up since two hours ago. I'm just glad I don't have to go into work extra early this morning. We were supposed to have some crazy meeting but it got canceled. I mean, who has meetings at the crack of dawn on a Saturday morning?! My boss is a self-declared Napoleon :)
Sat. 9/19/09 6:14am
From:
Joe
What was that joke about why Napoleon always had his hand in his jacket? Because he was scratching his nose? Anyway, you're right about Sat. morning meetings. That should be against the law. Glad cooler heads prevailed!

From:
dale
top of the morning, joe. hard to take the darkness art this hour, though
Sat. 9/19/09 6:16am
From:
dale
also hard to type at this hour
Sat. 9/19/09 6:16am
From:
Sue
Yeah, I don't know how much longer I can take it here on the west coast. I'm always going to be a Jersey girl. The people here are too friggin nice!
Sat. 9/19/09 6:17am
From:
Joe
Hey, Dale! Yeah, you said it. It seems to lift a little later every morning...Love serendipitous (sp?) typos--"darkness art" is great! Should be an album title.
Sat. 9/19/09 6:18am
From:
Joe
Sue, you should come back to Jersey. Later in the show I will play a song that tells you just why Jersey is best.
Sat. 9/19/09 6:21am
From:
Sue
Awesome, I'm looking forward to it. I am pretty homesick. I was considering London for my next move but I might just come on back home. I'm diggin' your tunes btw... as usual... thanks for accompanying me while I get ready for my day!
Sat. 9/19/09 6:23am
From:
dale
love the raga-ish of this amon duul. i have a bunch of early popul vuh on vinyl that this reminds me of. actually if you played this at 16rpm it would sound like popul vuh. do turntables still come with a 16rpm speed?
Sat. 9/19/09 6:23am
From:
Joe
Aw, shucks, Sue, thanks! I'm always surprised that folks are up so early, esp. on the West Coast!
Sat. 9/19/09 6:25am
From:
Joe
We've got these great tables at the station that do any speed, Dale! But yeah, I think Neu! actually did a whole album side at 78 rpm or 16 or some such thing--maybe "Neu! 2"?
Sat. 9/19/09 6:33am
From:
dale
i think the 16s were only spoken transcription discs. they're probably all molding away in small-town schools or in the library of congress now.
Sat. 9/19/09 6:36am
From:
Joe
Wow! It's funny that 16 used to be on so many turntables, even when I was a kid in the late 70s/early 80s. I wonder why?
Sat. 9/19/09 6:44am
From:
dale
love this version. have you ever heard the johnny mann singers beatles album? it's that horrible great that we all appreciate.
Sat. 9/19/09 6:47am
From:
Joe
No, I've never heard that, but it sounds great! I mean "great" in the loosest possible way.
Sat. 9/19/09 7:36am
From:
dale
'bake me a lady who will bake me a daisy?'
Sat. 9/19/09 7:37am
From:
Joe
Ha ha! I think he's saying "Bake me a baby"!
Sat. 9/19/09 7:38am
From:
dale
oh, a baABY.....
Sat. 9/19/09 7:46am
From:
dale
joe, you have the most eclectic collection of 45s i ever heard. is this all garage sale/salvay finds or do you troll record shows as well?
Sat. 9/19/09 7:48am
From:
Joe
Thanks, Dale! I do both, but I rarely pay more than a dollar for anything! I'm sure I miss out on some good stuff that way, but I'm a cheap bastard.
Sat. 9/19/09 7:54am
From:
dale
i stopped buying records a while ago. I moved them from my attic to the garage and when I realized I had an entire pickup truck bed filled with standing discs I decided to stop. especially when i saw that i had three copies of the smothers bros live at the green onion.
Sat. 9/19/09 7:57am
From:
Joe
I admire your ability to control your addiction! I agree that the Smothers Brothers x3 is a bad sign, indeed. I'm a little worried, but it hasn't reached that point....yet.
Sat. 9/19/09 8:17am
From:
tw2sheds
I'm sure its been said before but isnt the tra la la riff from the Banana Splits lifted from Buffalo Soldier? (Make those math problems you have to dodto post easier, OK?)
Sat. 9/19/09 8:20am
From:
Lisa in Tampa
Calling a band the Evolution Revolution these days could get you shouted down at a town hall. (Hi, Joe!)
Sat. 9/19/09 8:21am
From:
Joe
You're no doubt right, tw2sheds! I think the bubble gum gods who wrote all these tunes stole EVERYTHING from EVERYBODY!
Sat. 9/19/09 8:22am
From:
Joe
Hey, Lisa! What about songs about sea monsters?
Sat. 9/19/09 8:23am
From:
Lisa
They're what it's all about!
