steve:
So ya biting the head off of your chocolate jesus candy? | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 3:46am
Joe:
Only my chocolate jesus really satisfies! | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 3:48am
steve:
Well...great to see someone else also working on this Cristian holiday. Thanks! | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 3:50am
Joe:
Hey, my pleasure. Think of WFMU as your electric church this morning. | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 3:55am
steve:
Amen, Rev. Joe! | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 3:56am
Joe:
Hear the Word, my brother! | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 4:35am
steve:
Hey Joe...just a thought. Any Nick Lowe? After all, he was the Jesus of Cool. | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 4:38am
Joe:
Ha ha. I love Nick, but he's not the Jesus I have in mind today. On the other hand, he is truly a rock god. Brinsley Schwarz didn't record any Jesus material, did they? | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 4:41am
steve:
Not that I knew of. On the other hand, wasn't Nick married to one of Johnny Cash's daughters? That is as close to God as you can get. | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 4:42am
Joe:
God AND the Devil! | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:06am
(mta) Tony:
Happy Easter, Joe. May I suggest a song for you? If you're not familiar with it, it's great: JOHN EDDIE on his WHO THE HELL IS JOHN EDDIE? album, song: JESUS IS COMING. It's 05:18. It'll be worth the trouble picking it out. | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:12am
Joe:
Hey, MTA Tony, Happy Easter! I'll take a run into the library and see if I can find it. Can't promise, but I'll give it a go. | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:14am
FST:
I'm a music addict. Where can I find a cure? | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:16am
Joe:
Listen to 5 Billy Joel records in a row. Then sin no more. | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:21am
Sue:
Hey, Reverend Joe,... I had no idea you were a holy man! Happy Easter! | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:23am
Joe:
Yes, sometimes I lapse and go to the devil, but today I stand close to the Lord. No one gonna turn me 'round! | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:26am
Sue:
That's the spirit, Joe! Fight temptation! As for me, I'm happy in darkness | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:27am
Joe:
Don't worry, Sue, I'll show you the Light. | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:31am
Sue:
No way, man. But I think I can lead you astray,... heh heh heh... | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:35am
Joe:
Not me! I'm perched on the holy rock. I will not be moved. | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:36am
Sue:
No fun. I will tempt you another day :P | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:37am
Joe:
;) | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:39am
Sue:
Well, it certainly looks like the grace of God is with you today. I'm glad I caught your sermon/service today. Got any Easter plans? | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:40am
Joe:
Yes, I'm going to eat a rabbit. | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:42am
Sue:
Nice. I didn't realize that was part of Christian tradition. It all makes sense now! | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:44am
Joe:
Maybe I'll just put on my Easter bonnet and march in the Easter Parade down 5th Avenue. | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:46am
Sue:
There's an idea. And it's supposed to be all nice out, too. You have an Easter bonnet? | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:47am
Joe:
Well, it's more of a sombrero. Don't you have one? | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:48am
Sue:
No, man. I need to get me one of those! | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:51am
Sue:
By the way, amazing playlist | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:53am
Joe:
Thanks, Sue. :) | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 5:55am
Sue:
Happy Easter, Jesus Joe!! | |
|
Sun. 4/4/10 4:15pm
Mike Sin:
I rolled out bed of this morning, let the Electric Prunes' "Mass In F Minor" hit the speakers, then rolled your archive... Tom Jones covering Ashton, Gardner and Dyke probably two minutes after the track fell from the charts?! I'd never heard that previously! | |

HAPPY HAPPY (belated!) EASTER! was listening to your show -- just was *not* able to add comment at the time :( . . . but omg -- LARRY NORMAN!!!!! i had not heard him since freshman year in college (1977-1978); my roommate had his records! she is still one of my best friends EVER, so OF COURSE i am going to send her the link to this playlist -- even though i am sure she is no longer listening to Larry Norman records! . . . and YES i totally remember Sister Janet Mead ROCKIN' OUT to "The Lord's Prayer" and Tom Jones' *unique* take on "Resurrection Shuffle"! thanks so much for a great EASTER show! | |

Joe M.:
Hey, Mike and slugluv1313--Glad you dug the Tom Jones. It was the one song I wasn't sure I was going to play since it's not about THAT resurrection, but once I got it on the turntable, I wasn't sorry. If he hadn't had such a big hits with "It's Not Unusual" and "What's New Pussycat," Tom Jones would have become one of the fiercest white soul singers ever! | |
