You know, I think I really need to start listening to WFMU like I did when I lived in Brooklyn. Just the music and and fun and joy instead of trying to participate on these message boards. This one is mostly fun, but after that cesspool of negativity that was the Saturday morning/afternoon MS show I just feel like these boards kill all the joy that the music brings. |

I must have tuned out before the cesspool, now I want to go back and look at the comments. I enjoy the interaction with other listeners, but I have noticed that sometimes divided attention can detract from the musical experience. |

Hoboken Jack:
I've had the same thoughts @melinda. I do like to let the DJ know that I appreciate the show, a nice segue, etc., but staring at messages can take away from the "purity", the magic, of listening to music, listening to the radio, whether in wonderful Brooklyn, delightful Hudson County, greater Shamong, etc. |

melinda, it must just be the people the show attracts because I do my best to have a hands-off approach to the conversation. I don't worry about whether people want to talk about the music or about other things. I just want to be a itty bitty Herb Jepko. |

Anything from "Forever Changes" kills me! Shame on me for only discovering this album about 15 years ago. When I did, I played it every day like I was 14 years old. | |

I still remember a discussion with Bacharach about My Little Red Book, where he was a bit shocked that it could be interpreted the way Love did it. | |

Revolution Rabbit Nov63:
@MarkR: I think a kewl thing about 'ForeverChanges' is it's on many shortlists of BestAlbumsEver - but hadn't been played out since the 60s for most people. Heck - to be perfectly candid - I didn't even know about 'PetSounds' until the 90s probably. Amazing to find it there behind Pepper, to say the least. |

Revolution Rabbit Nov63:
Yeah - Love heard ManfredMann's presumably. Can understand a Writer/Arranger wondering why he should be deconstructed. JohnnyEchols of Love says he heard it in the movie it's in - & didn't catch all the chords! Tha of course - PinkFloyd's manager hums that to them - & Syd does the 'InterstellarOcerdrive' descending chords. It's like all the Rawk from power chords: advances as becomes more primitive - a conundrum... |

@melinda: don't we all! Not familiar with Gentry's discography beyond a coupla titles, this track is certainly making me rethink that. I thought for certain this was a British folk singer before checking the playlist. |

Revolution Rabbit Nov63:
@MarcFrancis: I find 'cesspool of negativity' a surprising term for the convo on MS's Sat. He the DJ himself has opinions he puts out - & I deffo 'took the bait', ranting a bit about contempo Pop40 - just one old guy's opinions. I am straight up prone to commenting too much (totally subjective anyhow but I will cop to it) & it can be a thing - but there was no trolling or aggro between people @ all I sensed. We get thankfully little of that these parts - but it does happen... |
