Playlist for John Allen - October 21, 2009

Wednesdays 6am - 9am (Web-only) on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot."

Enjoying the Wyatt. The first time I heard "At Last I Am Free" was when it was the closing track of the "Wanna Buy A Bridge" album.

Wed. 10/21/09 7:33am From: DJ

Parq, you go to the head of the class

Wed. 10/21/09 8:22am From: Parq

Sorry, I wasn't trying to show off. I just think that "Bridge" was the best comp album ever.

Wed. 10/21/09 8:29am From: DJ

don't apologize. take the first seat up front, listen and learn from
howard hessman

Wed. 10/21/09 8:38am From: Parq

DJ, have you ever seen the episode of KRP where the HH character starts his morning shift still wasted from the night before and cues up an LP at 45? Without dropping levels on either the mike or the turntable, he stops the record cold, hand backcues it to the start and groans "All right . . . now we're going to hear . . . the long version."

Wed. 10/21/09 8:41am From: DJ

Can you stick to the subject, Head of the Class ran from 1986-1991, long enough to reach syndication

Wed. 10/21/09 8:53am From: molerat

Some lovely stuff you're playing this morning. Thank you.
