Comment: I know my lack of enthusiasm for The Stooges distanced some. It's really more about a lack of exposure to the music. There is never enough time in life to immerse myself in everything I should. I tend to READ more about bands than actually HEARING them. My knowledge of Iggy is more centered on his solo career than with The Stooges. I'm sorry. Respect them. Of course! Perhaps I'll have the chance to immerse in the near future, I hope so. I dig the THOUGHT of their aesthetic. Low-budge. Defiant.

Comment: I'm guessing 2 people will ever read this. And that may be a generous estimate. Still, I feel compelled to air out some things I was thinking about this episode at this point of the broadcast. You know what. Here's an experiment. If you actually read this ... email me. You don't have to say anything. Just say ... I READ IT CLAY. I bet no one emails. dusty@wfmu.orgAnyway ... as the 'due-date' for this show drew near, I have to say I was having a really terrible week. I'm sure you've had them. A lot of things seemed to be going wrong and my mood and overall demeanor were in the dumps. As I recall (I am doing this playlist 2-weeks after this show aired) I had no time to produce a proper episode, and the records I had gathered together, frankly, kind of sucked, as you're hearing so far. That being said, I give myself credit for sticking to my recent formula of making shows around random flea market acquisitions whether they suck or not. In this instance, they just aren't that strong. Let me tell you (who am I talking to? No one is reading this ... no one) it is not easy on WFMU to play random music that might suck, because FMU listeners are discerning and informed. I consider myself to actually have decent musical tastes. I could play it safe and give you good stuff every week from my collection. But it's too easy. No challenge. No risk. Boring. So here you go. 45's from 75-77 that 3/4 stink.

Comment: Well ... there she blows. Another show in the can. Not my best, maybe not my worst. The weeks fly by like briliant tanagers and indigo buntings on their way to happier feeding grounds. And I, in my analog hovel, poorly ventilated and clammy, toil endlessly, wrangling umpteen interviews of various quality and a Biz-Bag™ of sundry vinyl into some type of lump-shape for your consumption. I hinted earlier at a slump and yes, I am there. Weird how it works. I guess Frank knew. A puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king. Ridin' high in April ... shot down in May. However, I shall perservere, Of course I will. And things will work out for all of us, just as they should. As the fates allow. I am very glad you have listened and read all this mumbo. I do appreciate it. I hope I haven't lost you with incessant Occupy coverage or a change in tone to a more downcast vibe. I do so long to be silly and frivolous. But, each week I find myself drawn once again into the fray, and I elect to wade into it, looking for inspiration, stories, hope, and love. Thank you for your continued, interest, loyalty, and support. It means a lot to me. I guess you know that by now. I hope you have a great week ahead and that you'll tune in again when you can. Peace and love to you and yours. Until next time, take care and ... always remember ... Clay Pigeon - NYC6/3/1299
