Happy Thursday! | |

David Shortell:
How about playing "Come On" (Part 1 or 2) by Earl King? | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 12:19pm
DB:
LOL I'm having a Gran Turismo flashback! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 12:19pm
Carmichael:
That's it, Joe. Keep playin' the rekkids. You know, the kind the kids like. Like the 101ers ... | |

KING KHAN!!! Man, love that Montreal rock. | |

steve:
Best show on FMU! Always have fun and thanks for the great tunes. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 12:37pm
Parq:
Joe, are you not gonna use the montage intro this season? I just figured it was skipped last week to accommodate Todd's rousing performance. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 12:50pm
Jeb:
Welcome back! Evil Farm Children missed you up here in Ottawa, Canada. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 12:50pm
dc pat:
that Nick Curran sounded pretty good...let's see, coming to DC?...... NO OF COURSE NOT!! does anyone come to this stinkin town anymore? | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 12:55pm
Cecile:
That was a good era for Brit Invasion coming back. I think those two Searchers albums of that era are some of their strongest stuff. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 12:58pm
RZ:
Noone was a natural for this stuff. Surprised it never hit bigger and was more or less written out of history. At the time being know as Herman was probably a detriment as opposed to an advantage! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 12:58pm
Cecile:
dcp, you ain't kidding. Any scene that can spawn Chromeo, the Gruesomes, Voivoid, King Khan, Godspeed You Black Emperor! and DJ Champion is a-OK with me. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 12:58pm
SmokinJ:
Sounds like Peter Noone was playin' the shit outa' his Knack album as well... | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:01pm
Carmichael:
Thanks for the 101ers, Joe! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:02pm
Cecile:
I liked the 1st Knack LP a lot at first, but there was always a kind of sliminess about their lyrics even by the boy-centric standards of garage rock at the time that turned me off. Also? It was overplayed. By the radio and by me. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:02pm
Joe B:
Hi everyone! thanks for tuning in/commenting! Parq, my plan was to make a new one over the last 4 months but of course that never happened! I jut forgot it is all, maybe i wil lremember next week | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:04pm
SmokinJ:
Love em' or hate em', The Knack kicked ass. Woke a lotta' people up.. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:05pm
Cecile:
That's very true. I think people were jealous that their kind of rock broke through when other bands weren't. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:05pm
Carmichael:
I really liked the guitar player, Burton Averre (?). But go watch the My Sharona video and see if you don't shudder and say "ugh!" | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:06pm
Joe B:
The Knack backlash - I still see examp[les of it today, and through the last 30 years: Fans of struggling band whine 'why are they not popular?" yet if and when they get popular, same fan cries sellout or has some other problem. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:07pm
Cecile:
Oh, absolutely. If you're a band you have to have a sense of humor about it, because you can't win. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:07pm
SmokinJ:
I saw The Knack in '79' and wasn't disapointed. R.I.P. Doug :( | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:08pm
Jeb:
Evil Farm Children just shared a bill with the Gerry Alvarez Odyssey in London Ontario. Great stuff & great guys. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:09pm
Joe B:
Hi Jeb! I wish Gerry would come down here! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:11pm
Cecile:
I saw them at a festival in '04, and they were all right. Liked Blue Oyster Cult better. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:12pm
Cecile:
heh. Those were two bands that were blessed/cursed with one hit song that was bigger than they were. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:12pm
SmokinJ:
BOC hade their moments as well :) | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:13pm
Cecile:
Many, many moments. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:16pm
Cecile:
Hey, I saw early 90s lineup GBV the other night. They brought it, and man. Does that band need Tobin Sprout! They had great stuff after him, but he delivered a lot of good songs. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:28pm
holland oats:
@cecile - friend o mine was there too, said it was awes | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:28pm
seang:
those norton records are only 10 bucks! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:38pm
Parq:
If the Knack never existed, we would have had to invent them. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:40pm
Marmalade kitty:
....................a rather good show! :) | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:42pm
Bad Ronald:
Hello Joe et al. Yeah, I loved the Knack. They did a kick-ass cover of "The Hard Way" on their 2nd album! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:46pm
Rob W:
Cecile! Marmalade Kitty! Greetings! Katie blew off the whole GBV thing Cecile, she is very, very particular about what shows she goes to (out of Teenage Fanclub, Vaselines, GBV, Belle and Seb., the only one we went to was the FMU Clean show @ Maxwell's) - but glad you enjoyed (even sans Mr Sprout)... | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:49pm
Parq:
@Joe, 1:02 -- thanks for the response. We trust you to achieve greatness in your own fashion, but you know us listeners -- we wanna get loaded! Yeah! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:52pm
Rob W:
Joe gets extra credit for updating his montage rather than resting on his laurels, Parq! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:55pm
Cecile:
Hi, Rob! No, Tobin Sprout was there. It was awesome. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:56pm
listener james from westwood:
Sounds like Linda Ronstadt has switched from the Plow King to Mister Plow! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:57pm
Huge:
Homer Simpson did a country album…? | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:58pm
Marmalade kitty:
Linda Ronstadt & Homer Simpson - A Quality track! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:58pm
Cecile:
LOL LJFW. Yeah, me and this young guy in the audience I was talking to would point at each other and shriek everytime Tobin took a lead vocal. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:58pm
Rob W:
Ah Cecile, Gotcha... sounds great! Although Homer Simpson with GBV might be worth the price of admission as well... | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 1:58pm
Carmichael:
... the name again is "Mr. Plow" .... | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:00pm
Cecile:
I would drive to that. Who would win in a Homer Simpson/Bob Pollard drinking contest? | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:02pm
Rob W:
Cecile: Dan Castellaneta? | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:02pm
GeorgeSimian:
This is the best Neil Young album. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:03pm
Cecile:
I think "I'm Wondering" is the best video ever made. It's so amazingly surreal, cheap and strange. No the actual Homer Simpson. I think Castelleneta is a lightweight. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:03pm
GeorgeSimian:
and I mean Everybody's Rockin' It's so good. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:04pm
Rob W:
Guilty pleasure dept: I agree Cecile, I love "I'm Wondering" - ! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:04pm
Carmichael:
Barney would bury all comers under the table. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:06pm
Skirkie:
Enjoyin' the hell outta this, as per the usual. | |

Digging the show Joe, but I think the 91.1 over-the-air signal seems messed up. Anyone else hearing it? Is it in my head? | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:06pm
Joe B:
Agree George, on Everybody's Rockin. One of these retro-rockabilly bands currently out there should cover Jellyroll Man or payola Blues. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:07pm
Joe B:
Max, they are doing some work on the transmitter. sorry for the inconvenience! Hi Rob and everyone else who has signed on since the first hello! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:11pm
Joe B:
apparently it is not just a little work on the transmitter, sorry to 91.1 listeners. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:13pm
tim from champaign:
I'm leaning toward Homer. Duff is heartier beverage than Miller Lite. Isn't that what Pollard srinks these day? Although, you can't get drunk off of Miller Lite. So Pollard might win. This a real quandry | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:13pm
Cecile:
Homer has also drunk a lot of Fudd. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:13pm
SueA:
whoa. thanks for stopping the Young. he sounded worse than me on a 5 drink karaoke kick. red simpson is cool. | |
|

Thanks Joe, just wanted to make sure I wasn't having a stroke or something. Carry on... | |

Okay, now play some Lurleen Lumpkin! | |

Got any Bloodshot Bill? more montreal stuff... | |

Thu. 10/14/10 2:27pm
dc pat:
gads why DO people drink lite beer? I like my beer as strong and powerful as possible. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:27pm
Ven:
Hey, the web stream sounds unusually tinny and trebley compared to tthe radio. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:33pm
Parq:
Dig it, Pat. Lite beer and decaf coffee -- what's the damn point? | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:33pm
Cecile:
I like the taste of decaf if it's done right. Lite beer, I'm not a fan. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:35pm
A beer drinking listener:
Barleywine uber alles! I'm sure Cyclone 60 would agree (unless they prefer Chocolate Stout) | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:37pm
dc pat:
mmm....chocolate...stout.... | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:42pm
Joe B:
that's not a typo - they left the e off the end of chocolate | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:47pm

Monsieur, that is le French spelling! | |

Thu. 10/14/10 2:48pm
Joe B:
Oh, pretty fancy for a Jersey band! thanks! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:50pm
Weird NJ:
Jersey cyclones are totally into frenching. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:54pm
Cecile:
Bring it to Jerome! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:54pm
RZ:
Great show today Joe! | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:55pm
Jersey Jeff:
Glad to hear you're back...loving the killer instrumental. WFMU is playing in my office. | |
|
Thu. 10/14/10 2:55pm
Keith in Oregon:
Fun show today; thanks Joe! | |
