Wed. 10/28/09 3:02pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

Oh shit yeah! you DID get Alisdair after all! You da man.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:03pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

Please have him play before 5 'cuz that's when I punch out, though, if you can!

Wed. 10/28/09 3:04pm timotato:

Welcome Irwin. If you're doing a Holloween theme show I wish to request "Horror Movie" by the Skyhooks if you can find it.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:05pm Ike:

Irwin, I thought of you earlier on an S train to Grand Central with two incorrect musicians: a Christian guitarist beggar and a wheelchair-bound incoherent a cappella gospel-ish-singing Phillies fan with an amplifier.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:05pm GP:

Hello Irwin and everyone...I was just listening to Nardwuars interview with Crispin Glover....so I missed Maria's show which looked really good based on the playlist.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:08pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

Maria's show is always good, but it's up against two really good local college shows in CLE that I switch between.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:09pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

Luckily for Irwin, the two college stations just play reggae during this slot....so he's stuck with me.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:12pm Cecile:

@timotato:
awesome choice. It's just "skyhooks".
They were my first rock concert!!!!!

Wed. 10/28/09 3:12pm Cecile:

I miss Burger Chef. They had the best condiment bar. All the mustard and pickles my burger could hold.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:13pm GP:

I hear you DCE, our local plays a ratio of about 50:1 free-form "jazz" to everything else, so I really can't listen to them for very long.

I can' miss Irwin though...you never know when Amanda is going to pop in.

Speaking of DJ"s, check this ( although it may be more interesting to the Old Codger than everyone else):

Wed. 10/28/09 3:14pm GP:

I meant "can't miss" not, "can"...amazing a difference a T makes!

Wed. 10/28/09 3:16pm Laura L:

DCE--Nothin' against Maria, but the two college stations you mention... available on the web that is so famously worldwide? Also, I concur--Irwin da man--today's Alasdair Day!

Wed. 10/28/09 3:16pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

yeah, GP, you BETTER set yourself straight with Irwin! Thanks for the link.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:16pm Mr. T:

You got that right, sucka!

Wed. 10/28/09 3:18pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

Laura L--www.wcsb.org Most mornings to mid-afternoon it's a great station, then the reggae comes in in the afternoons.

www.wruw.org Better website with archiving as well, radio station almost as good as wcsb

enjoy!

Wed. 10/28/09 3:21pm Me wow:

I can haz Super Chef?

Wed. 10/28/09 3:22pm another old man:

World Series begins tonight...who's Ole Pal Irwin got?

Wed. 10/28/09 3:23pm Laura L:

Thanks DCE! Reggae time would be switch-off time for me too.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:29pm Janet H:

this is my song!!

Wed. 10/28/09 3:32pm irwin:

which one?

Wed. 10/28/09 3:35pm Janet H:

well not really.....For You by Elephant Pride

Wed. 10/28/09 3:35pm jan:

Sugii- arigato gozaimasu!

Wed. 10/28/09 3:36pm GP:

I'm off to a meeting...Love this Koichi song Irwin.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:36pm Carmichael:

Whoa. I tune looking in for Irwin and hear Francis Albert. You've bent the eclectic/avant garde plane backwards on itself, so what's an old standard is now edgy.
I'm making no sense.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:36pm Ike:

If we're sharing other fave web radio stations: wnur.org, woxy.com, kfjc.org. Been meaning to check out freeteam.nl/patapoe/ also.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:38pm Parq:

Was intrigued by the "Legendary Japanese Jazz Scene" and looked it up. Found this page, with a rather amazing quote -- about halfway down the page, after the author's name:

Arriving late because too scared to arrive earlier.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:50pm Laurie:

Ooh, is this a new one from Giant Sand?

Wed. 10/28/09 3:51pm Irwin:

Nine years old.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:51pm Cecile:

No, it came out about 10 years ago

Wed. 10/28/09 3:52pm Irwin:

Naysayer! Contrarian!

Wed. 10/28/09 3:52pm Ike:

Wow, great Giant Sand song.

Wed. 10/28/09 3:56pm Cecile:

No, actually posting at the same time as you, Irwin. ;)

Wed. 10/28/09 3:56pm Janet H:

no thank you irwin!

Wed. 10/28/09 3:58pm Laurie:

I should probably delve into Giant Sand's discography. When I was in high school, I endlessly listened to that one perfect OP8 CD.

Wed. 10/28/09 4:00pm Laura L:

JUDSON!

Wed. 10/28/09 4:01pm C:

i really liked that howe gelb album that he did with the gospel choir a few years back. definitely worth checking out along with giant sand catalog

Wed. 10/28/09 4:01pm Laurie:

Is it a scary drammer?

Wed. 10/28/09 4:02pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

Whoo! Concert lighter out!

Wed. 10/28/09 4:08pm PMD:

Is it live or is it Memorex?

Wed. 10/28/09 4:09pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

...so vivid, and so creepy...

Wed. 10/28/09 4:12pm Laura L:

... so lucid and so creepy...

Wed. 10/28/09 4:15pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

I can't believe he's doing this tune! Awesome!

Wed. 10/28/09 4:17pm PMD:

It is an amazing sound/voice.

Wed. 10/28/09 4:18pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

Geez, I've seen the Clientele twice and they never dug this far back! I'm jealous, NYC'ers.

Wed. 10/28/09 4:19pm Janet H:

VERY NICE!!

Wed. 10/28/09 4:19pm miketp:

Thanks, Alasdair, for making it to Irwin's show--looking forward to Joe's Pub tomorrow night too--and the new album's super. Thank you, Irwin!

Wed. 10/28/09 4:23pm PMD:

Wed. 10/28/09 4:25pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

Wed. 10/28/09 5:01pm John McCabe in LA:

Wed. 10/28/09 5:36pm Parq:

"Green Eggs & Ham" with Shelley Manne on drums? How damn marvelous.

Wed. 10/28/09 5:36pm GP:

Canadian band, Moxy Fruvous has a cool version of "Green Eggs and Ham".

Wed. 10/28/09 5:37pm Seuss:

Would Spike Jonze make a decent film version of "Green Eggs and Ham," given the chance and the $$$?

Wed. 10/28/09 5:38pm Lizardner Dave:

I just called my wife to have her put this on at home. Good radio for the cats.

Wed. 10/28/09 5:40pm Cool Cat:

Wed. 10/28/09 5:44pm Merkel:
