Wed. 12/2/09 3:07pm Ike:

Parq, re: your comment about the DJs letting records skip for several minutes circa 1982, didn't that continue all through the '80s? Was the AOR mostly flushed out by '82? Lots of punk? Any disco? Some infamous prickly old FMU personality destroyed all the disco records, right? Newgarden?

Wed. 12/2/09 3:07pm PMD:

Selena kinda sounds like Miley Cyrus.

Wed. 12/2/09 3:13pm Janet H:

Wed. 12/2/09 3:50pm Stephanopolous:

Just perused the Irwin web ephemera. Your divergence from mainline sheepthink is offensive and repulsive and shocking and and.. dude! two legs bad! please play some Miley Cyrus now.

Wed. 12/2/09 3:55pm gary:

i can't believe how good "all blues" sounds every time I hear it!

Wed. 12/2/09 3:57pm Jay:

No Surfin' Today...

Wed. 12/2/09 5:17pm gumby:

I had no idea I grew up a couple of miles from where America's greatest piano player lived his last years in Highlands, NJ. Very informative, although a little infuriating that they didn't include that stuff in with the local lore of bootlegging gangsters and pirates when we were in grammar school history class.

Anyhow thanks for clueing me in.

Wed. 12/2/09 5:27pm Tom ( The Bactrian Network ):

LIttle Wing always one of my fave JiMi songs but I might like this version of Angel Better never heard it before and I have chills now like he's right here playing it !!!!!

Wed. 12/2/09 5:28pm Tom ( The Bactrian Network ):

never heard him sing like that before !!!!!! INCREDIBLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wed. 12/2/09 5:30pm Jimi Hendrix:

I wish they had been able to dust for vomit back in the day. It wasn't mine.

Wed. 12/2/09 5:38pm Pete Townsend:

Yeah, it was mine.

Wed. 12/2/09 5:38pm jan:

Irwin- I'm liking this twangy guitar. 'course we must stay current on WFMU. Playing too much 60s stuff and we might as well be watching
fund raising music specials on PBS

Wed. 12/2/09 5:41pm mr. peabody:
