marc:

wow a co-host? 1-800-989-WFMU
  12:44am
(mta) Tony:

Mike, do you have Hawkwind's "Spaced Out in London" CD?
  12:45am
(mta) Tony:

Mike, can you please type the name of the Hawkwind album you're looking for on CD?
  12:47am
yair Yona (Tel Aviv, Earth):

Good morning. Your show is definitely the best present a man can give to himself on this Monday morning
  12:52am
Mike Sin:

Hey everybody thanks for commenting!
@Tony The album is "Warrior At the Edge of Time". Don't have "Spaced Out"
  1:04am
(mta) Tony:

Hi Mike, I have Warrior At the Edge of Time on CD. Would you like to have a copy of it?
  1:25am
conor:

Small-hole 7 inch records issued in the US were designed to push down a very thin rigid-rod actuator on jukeboxes spindle to change platter speed from 45 to 33 rpm, to play long-play seven inch records (mini-lps) at correct speed.
Not the case in UK 7inchers, and quite a number of domestic releases (US). Some people would drill out their records to play correctly on jukeboxes.
Not me...
  1:27am
(mta) Tony:

Query: the station has a library of music larger than your imagination. Still, DJs do bring their own stuff.
  1:31am
conor:

in the video here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwrPyb8xB7k
just before around 7 Seconds, the actuator can be seen at around 11 o'clock on the spindle.
  1:40am
yair Yona (Tel Aviv, Earth):

This is such an amazing set guys
  1:54am
(mta) Tony:

Hi Mike, I have Hawkwind's "Warrior At the Edge of Time" on CD. I can't give you my own CD, but I would be happy to send a perfect copy to you including full artwork. Shall I send it to you in care of the station, or would you prefer I send it to some other address?

Hey Tony - Thanks! Will get back to you after the show. Thanks for the offer!
  2:14am
(mta) Tony:

Sure thing, Mike; thanks for replying.
  2:39am
