	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Aitch: I'd be broke otherwise
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: Thinking Fellers started out down in San Francisco, if I'm not mistaken, but they relocated to Portland just before they ended their career. But their albums are amazing.
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm Krys O.: Friends who lived in SF were big fans of Thinking Fellers and Caroliner.

	9:06pm ramencity: Ciao ragazzi i ragazze!
	9:06pm Mr. X: Spooktacular, the #30 listed Halloween podcast.
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm Austin Rich: This and Nation of Ulysses "13 Point Plan To Destroy America" sort of defined a certain period of my youth. ramencitykid! Always fun to have you in the chat!
	9:08pm Mr. X: Sometimes I think Steve Albini is singlehandedly responsible for the resurgence of vinyl.
	♥ 9:08pm Pauly from Clifton: "Nation of Ulysses"! DCHC!
	9:09pm Mr Fab: Hey Austin, thanks for getting everyone in the money mood - the Hellraiser pledge drive is just around the corner, folks!
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: That Avengers album, from the late '90's, includes "new" songs recorded with a band she assembled then, but performing songs she remembered the Avengers would play in the old days, but never recorded. The rest of the album includes live cuts that were heavily bootlegged, but never easily available. No problem, Mr. Fab. I am always doing Sheena's bidding.
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm Austin Rich: Albini certainly has a fingerprint on a lot of pop culture.
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Austin Rich: Pauly: you gotta love The Nation. Everything they did was solid gold.
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: I do think "Village Pistols" is a genius name for a punk band.
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: Gotta keep the "Big Moneys" together.
	9:15pm Mr Fab: Jay's name spelled "Reatard" - cuz I think it rhymed with "leotard"?
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: Whoops! You're right.
	9:15pm Mr Fab: unless i just imagined that
	🎸 ♥ 9:16pm Austin Rich: No, that's what discogs says. I got it wrong, which happens to all of us sheena DJs occasionally.
	9:17pm Mike Rogers: Hi Austin san!
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Austin Rich: It's corrected now.
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Austin Rich: Mike! I think I've got at least one or two more Japanese hardcore songs in the set tonight.
	9:18pm Mike Rogers: Coolness!
	♥ 9:18pm Scott67: G'day Austin & Mutants! Money can buy Beer, & I love Beer! Just been listening along on a Beer Run. Cheers!🌏☀️📻🎶🍻😎🤙💨🍺🌻🍺🍺🍺
	🎸 ♥ 9:19pm Austin Rich: It's true. As Fear famously said, "Everybody's gotta believe in something. I believe I'll have another beer."
	♥ 9:20pm DJ Babs: Hello Hello All! Hope you're having a great evening!
	♥ 9:20pm DJ Babs: Ahh my favorite Moriconne soundtrack! Love this movie....
	♥ 9:20pm Scott67: Got my holey Black Sabbath T-shirt & rattiest biker jacket on, gunna sit outback with Gus to listen while I drink! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
	♥ 9:21pm DJ Babs: This movie... <chef's kiss>
	♥ 9:22pm DJ Babs: NO NOTES!
	♥ 9:23pm Pauly from Clifton: G'day Scott! Sounds like the start of a great Wednesday. I hope the sun and fair winds are on your home.
	♥ 9:26pm Scott67: Think it's about to piss rain Pauly 🐶🐾🐾🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	🎸 ♥ 9:27pm Austin Rich: I've seen Motörhead four times. Three times in Portland, once in Seattle. All four were incredible. At the Portland Shows, Lemmy praised Portland the whole time, for the selection of strip bars we had. In Seattle, he complained the whole time, about the lack of strip bars in Seattle. Lemmy in many things, but in some ways, he is a very simple man.
	9:28pm Mr. X: Plus Motorhead was on The Young Ones once.
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Austin Rich: They were! And they were great on The Young Ones. As a VERY young man, I completely discounted Motörhead, thinking they were a dumb metal band. But as I got older, I realized that they are a dumb metal band in the same way the Ramones are a dumb punk band, and then it clicked. (Seeing them live also sealed the deal.)
	9:30pm Mr. X: How's that delicious Australian beer today, Scott67? All we know about Australian beer around here is Fosters.
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Krys O.: Gotta jump off into slumberland. Thanks, Austin! Take care, everyone.
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Austin Rich: I always assumed Fosters was Australian for Canadian beer.
	9:31pm Mr Fab: and the Fosters we get here is brewed in the US...
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Austin Rich: See ya next time, Krys O! Great show this week!
	🎸 ♥ 9:33pm Austin Rich: I often think that Born Against is one of the best forgotten hardcore bands of their era.
	🎸 ♥ 9:34pm Austin Rich: Born Against became the prog-punk weirdos, Men's Recovery Project, who hold a very special place in my heart.
	9:35pm Mr. X: I used to drink Tooth's Sheaf Stout, back in the day.
	9:36pm Mr Fab: The Queers now on their 40th anniv tour.
	🎸 ♥ 9:37pm Austin Rich: A 40th Anniversary Tour will usually get me out of the house, even during a pandemic. And The Queers do put on a good show. (Or, did 20 years ago, the last time I saw them.)
	9:40pm Mr. X: The Fifth Element is so underrated.
	🎸 ♥ 9:40pm Austin Rich: I think "I Hate The Rich" might be one of my favorite songs, ever. I even covered it, recently.
	🎸 ♥ 9:41pm Austin Rich: The Dils are probably one of my all time fave bands.
	♥ 9:41pm Scott67: Mr.X sipping a Cooper's Mild mate. From Adelaide. 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	🎸 ♥ 9:41pm Austin Rich: Mr. X: agreed! It has a charm that is hard to catch without patience.
	9:42pm Mr. X: Scott67, good on you, mate!
	9:44pm Heather: I'm lurking! Great show as always! Just relaxing with a Goose Island IPA, from Baldwinsville NY, and having a listen!
	🎸 ♥ 9:45pm Austin Rich: I'm just having a shot of bourbon, and a Waterloo back.
	♥ 9:46pm Scott67: Nobody in Aussie drinks much Fosters.
	🎸 ♥ 9:47pm Austin Rich: This "History of Portland Punk" comp was assembled by Greg Sage of The Wipers, and is essentially a run-down of all the singles (and a comp) that he released on his old label, Trap Records. I think the CD is out of print, but you can order a CDR of it from Greg direction from Zeno Records, his current label. (Or, at least, could a few years ago.)
	🎸 ♥ 9:47pm Austin Rich: Nice to see you in the chat, Heather!
	9:47pm Heather: My weekend houseguest put a big dent in the bourbon supply here (I helped a little) so I'm gonna need a bourbon run here soon!
	9:48pm Heather: I'm glad to be here! Front 242 is in town tonight but I am beat and so happy to be home and tuned into MVM!
	🎸 ♥ 9:49pm Austin Rich: Steak Knife! is a band featuring my friend Marty, in PDX. I think they play every so often, but no as much as they used to. (I'll have to dig out the CD for this album, and snap a photo for the playlist.)
	9:51pm Mr. X: The corporate nightmare that Fosters, Carlton and Sheaf Stout fell into: en.wikipedia.org...
	🎸 ♥ 9:52pm Austin Rich: The Causey Way is essentially the band "Man Or Astro-Man?" with a different front man, and I think one different member. Causey's gimmick was that he was a cult leader, and was offering people "musical" salvation. Their stage show involved robes and fans throwing dollars on stage and a gun and other weird cult props. I saw them once and they were... sort of terrifying.
	♥ 9:52pm Scott67: Punk & CULT movies! Perfect!! 🍻😎🤙💨🍻
	9:52pm Mr Fab: Purists may beef with me, but I sure like my vanilla-flavored Jim Beam whiskey, a glass of which is currently in hand. Hey, it's LIGHTLY flavored, quite subtle. Not some overly-sweetened concoction. On the rocks, yum.
	9:53pm Mr. X: Big Lebowski is one of my all-time favorite films. "Wheres's the money?" "It's down here somewhere." LOL
	🎸 ♥ 9:53pm Austin Rich: I've come around on the flavored bourbon, but I am often more of a purist. But some of those flavored ones are amazing.
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm Austin Rich: I think The Ramen City Kid digitized this 9th Life tape for me. I don't have a photo of the cover.
	♥ 9:55pm Scott67: The Dude abides!
	🎸 ♥ 9:55pm Austin Rich: Shawn, of 9th Life, the drummer, now runs a bar in Eugene, Oregon, called The Cowfish. They have events most weekends. I played a show there with Mark Hosler pre-pandemic, and Shawn hosted us very well.
	🎸 ♥ 9:55pm Austin Rich: The Big Lebowski works on a number of levels.
	9:56pm Mr Fab: Yeah, it's the only flavored one I've bought much. A guy at the liquor gave me a hard time about buying some once! Hey, you want my business or not?
	🎸 ♥ 9:57pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Austin Rich and all!!!
	🎸 ♥ 9:57pm Austin Rich: I updated the Steak Knife! CD picture above, if you want to scroll back to see it.
	🎸 ♥ 9:58pm Austin Rich: Will The Sound Guy! Always a party when you arrive.
	9:58pm Heather: Mr Fab, absolutely! You like it and your money spends fine! That feller can keep his opinion to himself! Maybe I'll give that vanilla a try, even, in solidarity!
	9:59pm Mr Fab: Ha, thanks Heather, cheers!
	10:00pm Mr. X: Or, as The Rutles put it, All You Need Is Cash.
	10:01pm ramencity: Funny - I've been on a Church kick this week (had "One Day" stuck in my head all morning, and finally got around to getting a copy of "Heyday" -- just took... 35 years to finally get around to it)
	♥ 10:02pm MHLee: There's also the "first" Spinal Tap song... "Gimme Some Money"
	🎸 ♥ 10:04pm Austin Rich: Oh yeah! I forgot Spinal Tap, too! Next time...
	♥ 10:05pm Scott67: Never enough scruff!
	🎸 ♥ 10:05pm Will thee Sound Guy: 🔥
	🎸 ♥ 10:06pm Austin Rich: I've had an earworm this week. Usually, after a few days of an earworm, I am sick of the song, and ready to burn it out at all costs. But in this case, it's been, "Cocktails For Two," by Spike Jones, and I don't mind a bit.
	10:07pm Heather: You can't go wrong with Cocktails For Two! Clink clink!
	10:07pm Mr. X: Soon they will find a way to bust us for copyright infringement for having earworms.
	🎸 ♥ 10:08pm Austin Rich: I think I could probably listen to Spike Jones at least once a week, forever.
	10:08pm Mr Fab: the Spike Jones radio hours that Jan plays Saturday mornings are so great.
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm Austin Rich: Jan is a radio workhorse! I'm listening in the mornings, and Jan is on all the time!
	10:09pm Heather: Ohhhhhh this song!!! I haven't heard this in decades!!
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm Austin Rich: This is, and "Eat Your Paisley," are probably my fave Milkmen albums.
	10:10pm Mr Fab: and in other Sheena's news, the singer guy from The Dead Milkmen will be a guest on a future episode of "Cheek in Tongues."
	♥ 10:10pm MHLee: There's at least a good chance you'll hear spike jones on one of the early shows at least 3 days a week
	10:11pm Heather: I need to up my Milkmen collection. I forget how much I like them. Shouldn't have sold those tapes but..... I needed the cash!
	🎸 ♥ 10:11pm Austin Rich: Joe! I'm very excited about that interview on Cheek In Tongues! Listening to Sheena at random times is usually a delight. There's often songs I have forgotten, or have never heard.
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Austin Rich: At the record store I work at, tapes are selling like crazy. I sold a used Bauhaus tape for $12. The kids was STOKED, and thought he was getting a deal. If you still have tapes from the 80's and 90's, and you aren't attached... you might be sitting on a little cash.
	🎸 ♥ 10:14pm Austin Rich: I think about this Jad Fair / Yo La Tengo album probably once a week. But I try not to overplay it, as I like it a little too much. But this song was just TOO appropriate.
	10:15pm Mr Fab: Jad Fair getting lyrics from supermarket tabloids.
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm Austin Rich: As a child, my parents taught me to play this song on the piano, and would ask me to play it for their friends. "A Rich Kid Playing If I Were A Rich Man!" my parents would say. Someday, I'll be telling that story to a therapist.
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm Austin Rich: (The fact my family was dirt poor was always pretty ironic, given our last name.)
	10:16pm Mr Fab: there's a Jonathan R. tribute album called "If I Was a Richman."
	♥ 10:16pm MHLee: Jan has implied the existence of a spectrum of Sheena shows, I like to consider mine in orbit near sounds under 64 not allowed with some tracks that board on World's Worst Records... that show is close to Miss Mei's show etc... it would be fun to graph... I bet if you data mined you could make a bunch of venn diagrams based on song overlap
	♥ 10:16pm MHLee: or band overlap
	♥ 10:17pm MHLee: Sorry, I'm a scientist
	🎸 ♥ 10:17pm Austin Rich: I need to track down that tribute album, Mr. Fab! That sounds great!
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Austin Rich: MHLee: I love that idea! "The Sheena Spectrum!"
	10:18pm Mr. X: Fiddler is one of the 3 Broadway musicals that I can actually stand.
	♥ 10:18pm MHLee: That border on not board on... I type so badly lol
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Austin Rich: Fiddler isn't bad, if I remember correctly. But I do recall it being fairly long.
	10:19pm Mr Fab: I tend to think of Sheena's show as either rock n rollin or not so rockin. Guess you could think of it as a spectrum going from least-rock to most-rock shows.
	10:20pm Mr. X: The tales of Sholem Aleichem, which Fiddler is based on, are a fun read.
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm Austin Rich: My parents were "a-religious," and I didn't know anything about any kind of faith until I starting reading about it in High School. I found the Jewish Faith very fascinating as a young man.
	10:26pm Mr. X: I'm feeling wealthy already. It's working.
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm Austin Rich: My last name is Rich, so I'm set.
	♥ 10:27pm Scott67: So Waddabout the filthy rich??
	🎸 ♥ 10:27pm Austin Rich: The Filthy need to be cleaned. Well, we can clean out their accounts, anyway.
	10:27pm Mr. X: I didn't realize it was all about thread count.
	🎸 ♥ 10:28pm Austin Rich: Certainly, as you get older, the thread count gets higher.
	10:29pm Mr. X: It's up so high now, I'm hanging from a thread.
	♥ 10:29pm Scott67: My threads come from Thrift Stores.
	🎸 ♥ 10:30pm Aitch: Natty threads
	🎸 ♥ 10:30pm Austin Rich: If only it were that easy, Loren...
	10:33pm Mr. X: When I took the History of Rock and Roll class in college, the teacher put a lot of emphasis on Clyde McPhatter.
	10:33pm ramencity: @austin If your last name had been Poore, do you think you'd be hosting a crypto-bro podcast instead?
	10:34pm Mr Fab: Mr. X: why was that? I confess to not knowing much about McPhatter.
	♥ 10:34pm Scott67: I have considered myself independently wealthy since being made redundant . Time & Freedom are my assets!
	🎸 ♥ 10:34pm Austin Rich: Those History of Rock and Roll classes are often, "I'm the teacher and these are the songs I THINK matter." I like Clyde, but that does seem as arbitrary as anything else.
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: Certainly the Alternate Universe version of me is involved in Crypto in some really douchey way.
	10:36pm Mr. X: Mr. Fab, I think he saw Clyde's version of The Drifters as the quintessential transition between doo wop and rock.
	10:37pm Mr. X: Yes, teacher was opinionated for sure. But I still learned a lot.
	🎸 ♥ 10:38pm Austin Rich: I liked my History of Rock and Roll class, because there was a lecture on the influence of Country, and I wound up really loving a lot of old country I'd never heard before.
	🎸 ♥ 10:40pm Austin Rich: In doing my research today, I was shocked to realize that there is a lot more footage of Spike Jones than I thought... in film! He was in several movies I haven't seen, as himself, or they cut to the band and they're playing. So I have a new winter mission: track down these movies!
	♥ 10:40pm MHLee: @Mr fab at 10:19 we have clusters of shows I think
	10:40pm Mr. X: Teacher's name was Paul Friedlander. Here's his book, Rock and Roll: A Social History. Only $160 bucks, speaking of money. www.barnesandnoble.com...
	🎸 ♥ 10:41pm Austin Rich: When this Sharon Jones album came out, I fell for it HARD. But I haven't listened to it much in the last several years. I need to get back into that habit.
	♥ 10:42pm MHLee: I vistied the country hall of fame in Nashville and honestly found it much better at talking about the evolution and story of a genre than the rock hall
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Austin Rich: I work in a used bookstore, Mr. X. I'll see if i can find a cheaper copy.
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Austin Rich: As I get older, MHLee, I find myself liking a lot more old country than I thought I would as a kid.
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Austin Rich: This is one of my fave Ray Charles songs, but he's got so many hits that it's really hard to pick.
	10:43pm Mr Fab: That’s interesting MHLee. The rock hall is more of a collection of memorabilia, isn’t it?
	10:45pm Mr. X: Brother Ray. I used to listen to KGO news talk host Ray Taliefero. He was friends with Ray Charles, and they called each other Brother Ray when Ray Charles played on his New Year's shows.
	🎸 ♥ 10:46pm Austin Rich: That's really cool, Mr. X! I do love Ray Charles.
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Austin Rich: See, Jack is really cheap...
	♥ 10:48pm MHLee: It is but it does talk a bit about it in the early influences section... it talks a lot about Alan Freed... but yeah it's more glitzy over substance other than the featured exhibit. The Country hall may have Elvis's Cadilac but also displays talking about the movements and counter movements through country history
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Austin Rich: You could actually do you and everyone around you a huge favor by just listening to all of "The Formative Years" discs that they put out covering Little Richard's early career. Every part of those discs are classics!
	10:49pm Mr. X: A friend recently talked me into watching the Ken Burns country music doc. I have spent a lot of time since then educating myself and putting together country playlists.
	♥ 10:50pm MHLee: Of course, I'm partial to string bands and the real early stuff, that being my musical background... that and Syd Barrett
	10:50pm Mr Fab: I was so bummed when Sharon Jones died. WAY too young.
	🎸 ♥ 10:50pm Austin Rich: We should do an old country show, Mr. X! That would be fun.
	♥ 10:50pm MHLee: The anthology that went with the Ken Burns doc is amazing!
	🎸 ♥ 10:50pm Austin Rich: Agreed, Mr. Fab. Could have been so many other great albums.
	10:51pm Mr. X: I was skeptical before I visited the Rock Hall of Fame, but I wound up being thoroughly entranced. Those pieces of memorabilia have power.
	♥ 10:51pm MHLee: I still need to find some of my bluegrass recordings and play them
	♥ 10:52pm Scott67: Do some overtime Austin! I will shout you a beer & noodles! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺🥡
	10:52pm Heather: PSB heck yeah!! Bidding yall a good night! Excellent show and fun chat, thank you, everyone!
	10:54pm Heather: I feel so seen! I'll start knitting legwarmers right now for the workout show! And shutting it down with Android Sisters! But first TMBG?! Goodness. Huge treat! For real this time, good night, everyone!
	🎸 ♥ 10:54pm Austin Rich: "And I'm feeling poorer every day..."
	10:55pm ramencity: I guess if TV kept showing that one William Shatner movie over and over, it would all be in Esperanto
	🎸 ♥ 10:55pm Austin Rich: Incubus, you mean? Still haven't seen it, but that's our next movie party, ramencitykid!
	♥ 10:56pm Scott67: I'm feelin' older every day. A symptom of being alive! Thanks Austin, for your riches mate! 🌏☀️🍻😎🤙💨🍺🥡🌻
	🎸 ♥ 10:57pm Austin Rich: "WHO PROGRAMMED YOU?" They are so good...
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Austin Rich: "Two pieces of paper..."
	♥ 10:59pm MHLee: The Android Sisters feels like a clever play on the Andrew Sisters
	♥ 10:59pm MHLee: Thanks Austin, I'll need to catch this more
	10:59pm Mr. X: Fun show, Austin! Thanks!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: I think you might be right, MHLee.
	11:00pm Mike Rogers: Thanks, Austin san!
	🎸 ♥ 11:00pm Austin Rich: Thanks everyone! This was fun... and full of glitches!

Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from September 20, 2022

View austinrich's profile

A combination of collage, new experimental records and other bits and bobs, Mid-Valley Mutations is a tour through the mind of Austin Rich, who has been broadcasting in some form since 1998. Heavily influenced by Dr Demento, Don Joyce and old fashioned College Radio, Austin creates Audio Essays on a variety of subjects, and even just plays records, from time to time. Sometimes Live music and Interviews will grace the program, helping create a situation where you don't really know what you're going to hear, when you tune in. What you need to know is when you enter the Mid-Valley region, be prepared for the Musical Mutations... in whatever form they take.

Listener comments!
	🎸 ♥ 7:05pm Austin Rich: Good Hello
	♥ 8:58pm MHLee: Hi Austin
	🎸 ♥ 9:00pm Krys O.: Howdy-do!
	9:00pm Mr. X: Meanwhile....
	♥ 9:01pm Pauly from Clifton: Hiya, Austin, folks!
	🎸 ♥ 9:01pm Austin Rich: Nice to see ya'll, MHLee, Krys O and Mr. X. (And the rest...)
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Aitch: I'd be broke otherwise
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: Thinking Fellers started out down in San Francisco, if I'm not mistaken, but they relocated to Portland just before they ended their career. But their albums are amazing.
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm Krys O.: Friends who lived in SF were big fans of Thinking Fellers and Caroliner.
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm Austin Rich: Aitch! Always lovely to see you in the chat. Caroliner! yes!
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm Aitch: I enjoy your show A Rich
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Austin Rich: There still two more before I'll succumb to the Spooktacular shows.
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: I always had a soft spot for Atomizer in the Big Black catalog.
	9:06pm ramencity: Ciao ragazzi i ragazze!
	9:06pm Mr. X: Spooktacular, the #30 listed Halloween podcast.
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm Austin Rich: This and Nation of Ulysses "13 Point Plan To Destroy America" sort of defined a certain period of my youth. ramencitykid! Always fun to have you in the chat!
	9:08pm Mr. X: Sometimes I think Steve Albini is singlehandedly responsible for the resurgence of vinyl.
	♥ 9:08pm Pauly from Clifton: "Nation of Ulysses"! DCHC!
	9:09pm Mr Fab: Hey Austin, thanks for getting everyone in the money mood - the Hellraiser pledge drive is just around the corner, folks!
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: That Avengers album, from the late '90's, includes "new" songs recorded with a band she assembled then, but performing songs she remembered the Avengers would play in the old days, but never recorded. The rest of the album includes live cuts that were heavily bootlegged, but never easily available. No problem, Mr. Fab. I am always doing Sheena's bidding.
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm Austin Rich: Albini certainly has a fingerprint on a lot of pop culture.
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Austin Rich: Pauly: you gotta love The Nation. Everything they did was solid gold.
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: I do think "Village Pistols" is a genius name for a punk band.
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: Gotta keep the "Big Moneys" together.
	9:15pm Mr Fab: Jay's name spelled "Reatard" - cuz I think it rhymed with "leotard"?
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: Whoops! You're right.
	9:15pm Mr Fab: unless i just imagined that
	🎸 ♥ 9:16pm Austin Rich: No, that's what discogs says. I got it wrong, which happens to all of us sheena DJs occasionally.
	9:17pm Mike Rogers: Hi Austin san!
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Austin Rich: It's corrected now.
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Austin Rich: Mike! I think I've got at least one or two more Japanese hardcore songs in the set tonight.
	9:18pm Mike Rogers: Coolness!
	♥ 9:18pm Scott67: G'day Austin & Mutants! Money can buy Beer, & I love Beer! Just been listening along on a Beer Run. Cheers!🌏☀️📻🎶🍻😎🤙💨🍺🌻🍺🍺🍺
	🎸 ♥ 9:19pm Austin Rich: It's true. As Fear famously said, "Everybody's gotta believe in something. I believe I'll have another beer."
	♥ 9:20pm DJ Babs: Hello Hello All! Hope you're having a great evening!
	♥ 9:20pm DJ Babs: Ahh my favorite Moriconne soundtrack! Love this movie....
	♥ 9:20pm Scott67: Got my holey Black Sabbath T-shirt & rattiest biker jacket on, gunna sit outback with Gus to listen while I drink! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
	♥ 9:21pm DJ Babs: This movie... <chef's kiss>
	♥ 9:22pm DJ Babs: NO NOTES!
	♥ 9:23pm Pauly from Clifton: G'day Scott! Sounds like the start of a great Wednesday. I hope the sun and fair winds are on your home.
	♥ 9:26pm Scott67: Think it's about to piss rain Pauly 🐶🐾🐾🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	🎸 ♥ 9:27pm Austin Rich: I've seen Motörhead four times. Three times in Portland, once in Seattle. All four were incredible. At the Portland Shows, Lemmy praised Portland the whole time, for the selection of strip bars we had. In Seattle, he complained the whole time, about the lack of strip bars in Seattle. Lemmy in many things, but in some ways, he is a very simple man.
	9:28pm Mr. X: Plus Motorhead was on The Young Ones once.
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Austin Rich: They were! And they were great on The Young Ones. As a VERY young man, I completely discounted Motörhead, thinking they were a dumb metal band. But as I got older, I realized that they are a dumb metal band in the same way the Ramones are a dumb punk band, and then it clicked. (Seeing them live also sealed the deal.)
	9:30pm Mr. X: How's that delicious Australian beer today, Scott67? All we know about Australian beer around here is Fosters.
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Krys O.: Gotta jump off into slumberland. Thanks, Austin! Take care, everyone.
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Austin Rich: I always assumed Fosters was Australian for Canadian beer.
	9:31pm Mr Fab: and the Fosters we get here is brewed in the US...
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Austin Rich: See ya next time, Krys O! Great show this week!
	🎸 ♥ 9:33pm Austin Rich: I often think that Born Against is one of the best forgotten hardcore bands of their era.
	🎸 ♥ 9:34pm Austin Rich: Born Against became the prog-punk weirdos, Men's Recovery Project, who hold a very special place in my heart.
	9:35pm Mr. X: I used to drink Tooth's Sheaf Stout, back in the day.
	9:36pm Mr Fab: The Queers now on their 40th anniv tour.
	🎸 ♥ 9:37pm Austin Rich: A 40th Anniversary Tour will usually get me out of the house, even during a pandemic. And The Queers do put on a good show. (Or, did 20 years ago, the last time I saw them.)
	9:40pm Mr. X: The Fifth Element is so underrated.
	🎸 ♥ 9:40pm Austin Rich: I think "I Hate The Rich" might be one of my favorite songs, ever. I even covered it, recently.
	🎸 ♥ 9:41pm Austin Rich: The Dils are probably one of my all time fave bands.
	♥ 9:41pm Scott67: Mr.X sipping a Cooper's Mild mate. From Adelaide. 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	🎸 ♥ 9:41pm Austin Rich: Mr. X: agreed! It has a charm that is hard to catch without patience.
	9:42pm Mr. X: Scott67, good on you, mate!
	9:44pm Heather: I'm lurking! Great show as always! Just relaxing with a Goose Island IPA, from Baldwinsville NY, and having a listen!
	🎸 ♥ 9:45pm Austin Rich: I'm just having a shot of bourbon, and a Waterloo back.
	♥ 9:46pm Scott67: Nobody in Aussie drinks much Fosters.
	🎸 ♥ 9:47pm Austin Rich: This "History of Portland Punk" comp was assembled by Greg Sage of The Wipers, and is essentially a run-down of all the singles (and a comp) that he released on his old label, Trap Records. I think the CD is out of print, but you can order a CDR of it from Greg direction from Zeno Records, his current label. (Or, at least, could a few years ago.)
	🎸 ♥ 9:47pm Austin Rich: Nice to see you in the chat, Heather!
	9:47pm Heather: My weekend houseguest put a big dent in the bourbon supply here (I helped a little) so I'm gonna need a bourbon run here soon!
	9:48pm Heather: I'm glad to be here! Front 242 is in town tonight but I am beat and so happy to be home and tuned into MVM!
	🎸 ♥ 9:49pm Austin Rich: Steak Knife! is a band featuring my friend Marty, in PDX. I think they play every so often, but no as much as they used to. (I'll have to dig out the CD for this album, and snap a photo for the playlist.)
	9:51pm Mr. X: The corporate nightmare that Fosters, Carlton and Sheaf Stout fell into: en.wikipedia.org...
	🎸 ♥ 9:52pm Austin Rich: The Causey Way is essentially the band "Man Or Astro-Man?" with a different front man, and I think one different member. Causey's gimmick was that he was a cult leader, and was offering people "musical" salvation. Their stage show involved robes and fans throwing dollars on stage and a gun and other weird cult props. I saw them once and they were... sort of terrifying.
	♥ 9:52pm Scott67: Punk & CULT movies! Perfect!! 🍻😎🤙💨🍻
	9:52pm Mr Fab: Purists may beef with me, but I sure like my vanilla-flavored Jim Beam whiskey, a glass of which is currently in hand. Hey, it's LIGHTLY flavored, quite subtle. Not some overly-sweetened concoction. On the rocks, yum.
	9:53pm Mr. X: Big Lebowski is one of my all-time favorite films. "Wheres's the money?" "It's down here somewhere." LOL
	🎸 ♥ 9:53pm Austin Rich: I've come around on the flavored bourbon, but I am often more of a purist. But some of those flavored ones are amazing.
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm Austin Rich: I think The Ramen City Kid digitized this 9th Life tape for me. I don't have a photo of the cover.
	♥ 9:55pm Scott67: The Dude abides!
	🎸 ♥ 9:55pm Austin Rich: Shawn, of 9th Life, the drummer, now runs a bar in Eugene, Oregon, called The Cowfish. They have events most weekends. I played a show there with Mark Hosler pre-pandemic, and Shawn hosted us very well.
	🎸 ♥ 9:55pm Austin Rich: The Big Lebowski works on a number of levels.
	9:56pm Mr Fab: Yeah, it's the only flavored one I've bought much. A guy at the liquor gave me a hard time about buying some once! Hey, you want my business or not?
	🎸 ♥ 9:57pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Austin Rich and all!!!
	🎸 ♥ 9:57pm Austin Rich: I updated the Steak Knife! CD picture above, if you want to scroll back to see it.
	🎸 ♥ 9:58pm Austin Rich: Will The Sound Guy! Always a party when you arrive.
	9:58pm Heather: Mr Fab, absolutely! You like it and your money spends fine! That feller can keep his opinion to himself! Maybe I'll give that vanilla a try, even, in solidarity!
	9:59pm Mr Fab: Ha, thanks Heather, cheers!
	10:00pm Mr. X: Or, as The Rutles put it, All You Need Is Cash.
	10:01pm ramencity: Funny - I've been on a Church kick this week (had "One Day" stuck in my head all morning, and finally got around to getting a copy of "Heyday" -- just took... 35 years to finally get around to it)
	♥ 10:02pm MHLee: There's also the "first" Spinal Tap song... "Gimme Some Money"
	🎸 ♥ 10:04pm Austin Rich: Oh yeah! I forgot Spinal Tap, too! Next time...
	♥ 10:05pm Scott67: Never enough scruff!
	🎸 ♥ 10:05pm Will thee Sound Guy: 🔥
	🎸 ♥ 10:06pm Austin Rich: I've had an earworm this week. Usually, after a few days of an earworm, I am sick of the song, and ready to burn it out at all costs. But in this case, it's been, "Cocktails For Two," by Spike Jones, and I don't mind a bit.
	10:07pm Heather: You can't go wrong with Cocktails For Two! Clink clink!
	10:07pm Mr. X: Soon they will find a way to bust us for copyright infringement for having earworms.
	🎸 ♥ 10:08pm Austin Rich: I think I could probably listen to Spike Jones at least once a week, forever.
	10:08pm Mr Fab: the Spike Jones radio hours that Jan plays Saturday mornings are so great.
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm Austin Rich: Jan is a radio workhorse! I'm listening in the mornings, and Jan is on all the time!
	10:09pm Heather: Ohhhhhh this song!!! I haven't heard this in decades!!
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm Austin Rich: This is, and "Eat Your Paisley," are probably my fave Milkmen albums.
	10:10pm Mr Fab: and in other Sheena's news, the singer guy from The Dead Milkmen will be a guest on a future episode of "Cheek in Tongues."
	♥ 10:10pm MHLee: There's at least a good chance you'll hear spike jones on one of the early shows at least 3 days a week
	10:11pm Heather: I need to up my Milkmen collection. I forget how much I like them. Shouldn't have sold those tapes but..... I needed the cash!
	🎸 ♥ 10:11pm Austin Rich: Joe! I'm very excited about that interview on Cheek In Tongues! Listening to Sheena at random times is usually a delight. There's often songs I have forgotten, or have never heard.
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Austin Rich: At the record store I work at, tapes are selling like crazy. I sold a used Bauhaus tape for $12. The kids was STOKED, and thought he was getting a deal. If you still have tapes from the 80's and 90's, and you aren't attached... you might be sitting on a little cash.
	🎸 ♥ 10:14pm Austin Rich: I think about this Jad Fair / Yo La Tengo album probably once a week. But I try not to overplay it, as I like it a little too much. But this song was just TOO appropriate.
	10:15pm Mr Fab: Jad Fair getting lyrics from supermarket tabloids.
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm Austin Rich: As a child, my parents taught me to play this song on the piano, and would ask me to play it for their friends. "A Rich Kid Playing If I Were A Rich Man!" my parents would say. Someday, I'll be telling that story to a therapist.
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm Austin Rich: (The fact my family was dirt poor was always pretty ironic, given our last name.)
	10:16pm Mr Fab: there's a Jonathan R. tribute album called "If I Was a Richman."
	♥ 10:16pm MHLee: Jan has implied the existence of a spectrum of Sheena shows, I like to consider mine in orbit near sounds under 64 not allowed with some tracks that board on World's Worst Records... that show is close to Miss Mei's show etc... it would be fun to graph... I bet if you data mined you could make a bunch of venn diagrams based on song overlap
	♥ 10:16pm MHLee: or band overlap
	♥ 10:17pm MHLee: Sorry, I'm a scientist
	🎸 ♥ 10:17pm Austin Rich: I need to track down that tribute album, Mr. Fab! That sounds great!
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Austin Rich: MHLee: I love that idea! "The Sheena Spectrum!"
	10:18pm Mr. X: Fiddler is one of the 3 Broadway musicals that I can actually stand.
	♥ 10:18pm MHLee: That border on not board on... I type so badly lol
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Austin Rich: Fiddler isn't bad, if I remember correctly. But I do recall it being fairly long.
	10:19pm Mr Fab: I tend to think of Sheena's show as either rock n rollin or not so rockin. Guess you could think of it as a spectrum going from least-rock to most-rock shows.
	10:20pm Mr. X: The tales of Sholem Aleichem, which Fiddler is based on, are a fun read.
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm Austin Rich: My parents were "a-religious," and I didn't know anything about any kind of faith until I starting reading about it in High School. I found the Jewish Faith very fascinating as a young man.
	10:26pm Mr. X: I'm feeling wealthy already. It's working.
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm Austin Rich: My last name is Rich, so I'm set.
	♥ 10:27pm Scott67: So Waddabout the filthy rich??
	🎸 ♥ 10:27pm Austin Rich: The Filthy need to be cleaned. Well, we can clean out their accounts, anyway.
	10:27pm Mr. X: I didn't realize it was all about thread count.
	🎸 ♥ 10:28pm Austin Rich: Certainly, as you get older, the thread count gets higher.
	10:29pm Mr. X: It's up so high now, I'm hanging from a thread.
	♥ 10:29pm Scott67: My threads come from Thrift Stores.
	🎸 ♥ 10:30pm Aitch: Natty threads
	🎸 ♥ 10:30pm Austin Rich: If only it were that easy, Loren...
	10:33pm Mr. X: When I took the History of Rock and Roll class in college, the teacher put a lot of emphasis on Clyde McPhatter.
	10:33pm ramencity: @austin If your last name had been Poore, do you think you'd be hosting a crypto-bro podcast instead?
	10:34pm Mr Fab: Mr. X: why was that? I confess to not knowing much about McPhatter.
	♥ 10:34pm Scott67: I have considered myself independently wealthy since being made redundant . Time & Freedom are my assets!
	🎸 ♥ 10:34pm Austin Rich: Those History of Rock and Roll classes are often, "I'm the teacher and these are the songs I THINK matter." I like Clyde, but that does seem as arbitrary as anything else.
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: Certainly the Alternate Universe version of me is involved in Crypto in some really douchey way.
	10:36pm Mr. X: Mr. Fab, I think he saw Clyde's version of The Drifters as the quintessential transition between doo wop and rock.
	10:37pm Mr. X: Yes, teacher was opinionated for sure. But I still learned a lot.
	🎸 ♥ 10:38pm Austin Rich: I liked my History of Rock and Roll class, because there was a lecture on the influence of Country, and I wound up really loving a lot of old country I'd never heard before.
	🎸 ♥ 10:40pm Austin Rich: In doing my research today, I was shocked to realize that there is a lot more footage of Spike Jones than I thought... in film! He was in several movies I haven't seen, as himself, or they cut to the band and they're playing. So I have a new winter mission: track down these movies!
	♥ 10:40pm MHLee: @Mr fab at 10:19 we have clusters of shows I think
	10:40pm Mr. X: Teacher's name was Paul Friedlander. Here's his book, Rock and Roll: A Social History. Only $160 bucks, speaking of money. www.barnesandnoble.com...
	🎸 ♥ 10:41pm Austin Rich: When this Sharon Jones album came out, I fell for it HARD. But I haven't listened to it much in the last several years. I need to get back into that habit.
	♥ 10:42pm MHLee: I vistied the country hall of fame in Nashville and honestly found it much better at talking about the evolution and story of a genre than the rock hall
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Austin Rich: I work in a used bookstore, Mr. X. I'll see if i can find a cheaper copy.
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Austin Rich: As I get older, MHLee, I find myself liking a lot more old country than I thought I would as a kid.
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Austin Rich: This is one of my fave Ray Charles songs, but he's got so many hits that it's really hard to pick.
	10:43pm Mr Fab: That’s interesting MHLee. The rock hall is more of a collection of memorabilia, isn’t it?
	10:45pm Mr. X: Brother Ray. I used to listen to KGO news talk host Ray Taliefero. He was friends with Ray Charles, and they called each other Brother Ray when Ray Charles played on his New Year's shows.
	🎸 ♥ 10:46pm Austin Rich: That's really cool, Mr. X! I do love Ray Charles.
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Austin Rich: See, Jack is really cheap...
	♥ 10:48pm MHLee: It is but it does talk a bit about it in the early influences section... it talks a lot about Alan Freed... but yeah it's more glitzy over substance other than the featured exhibit. The Country hall may have Elvis's Cadilac but also displays talking about the movements and counter movements through country history
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Austin Rich: You could actually do you and everyone around you a huge favor by just listening to all of "The Formative Years" discs that they put out covering Little Richard's early career. Every part of those discs are classics!
	10:49pm Mr. X: A friend recently talked me into watching the Ken Burns country music doc. I have spent a lot of time since then educating myself and putting together country playlists.
	♥ 10:50pm MHLee: Of course, I'm partial to string bands and the real early stuff, that being my musical background... that and Syd Barrett
	10:50pm Mr Fab: I was so bummed when Sharon Jones died. WAY too young.
	🎸 ♥ 10:50pm Austin Rich: We should do an old country show, Mr. X! That would be fun.
	♥ 10:50pm MHLee: The anthology that went with the Ken Burns doc is amazing!
	🎸 ♥ 10:50pm Austin Rich: Agreed, Mr. Fab. Could have been so many other great albums.
	10:51pm Mr. X: I was skeptical before I visited the Rock Hall of Fame, but I wound up being thoroughly entranced. Those pieces of memorabilia have power.
	♥ 10:51pm MHLee: I still need to find some of my bluegrass recordings and play them
	♥ 10:52pm Scott67: Do some overtime Austin! I will shout you a beer & noodles! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺🥡
	10:52pm Heather: PSB heck yeah!! Bidding yall a good night! Excellent show and fun chat, thank you, everyone!
	10:54pm Heather: I feel so seen! I'll start knitting legwarmers right now for the workout show! And shutting it down with Android Sisters! But first TMBG?! Goodness. Huge treat! For real this time, good night, everyone!
	🎸 ♥ 10:54pm Austin Rich: "And I'm feeling poorer every day..."
	10:55pm ramencity: I guess if TV kept showing that one William Shatner movie over and over, it would all be in Esperanto
	🎸 ♥ 10:55pm Austin Rich: Incubus, you mean? Still haven't seen it, but that's our next movie party, ramencitykid!
	♥ 10:56pm Scott67: I'm feelin' older every day. A symptom of being alive! Thanks Austin, for your riches mate! 🌏☀️🍻😎🤙💨🍺🥡🌻
	🎸 ♥ 10:57pm Austin Rich: "WHO PROGRAMMED YOU?" They are so good...
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Austin Rich: "Two pieces of paper..."
	♥ 10:59pm MHLee: The Android Sisters feels like a clever play on the Andrew Sisters
	♥ 10:59pm MHLee: Thanks Austin, I'll need to catch this more
	10:59pm Mr. X: Fun show, Austin! Thanks!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: I think you might be right, MHLee.
	11:00pm Mike Rogers: Thanks, Austin san!
	🎸 ♥ 11:00pm Austin Rich: Thanks everyone! This was fun... and full of glitches!
