	12:12pm Phillippe: Yay, Tamar again!
	12:13pm Crownless Gander: I never got any ice cream when I had my tonsils taken out as an adult. Just unflavoured ice "chips"! Felt like a giant ripoff.
	12:14pm misterpickles69: I love this
	12:14pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Jeannie's Diner" by "Mark Jonathan Davis w/ Marly... Dr. Bellows lived across the street from us in the '70s/'80s.

	12:15pm mariano: ↳ Roberto @12:14 Bellows was my favorite character on the show. The urbane gentleman-officer whose sanity is constantly being tested.
	12:15pm mariano: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:11 SUBDIVISIONS
	12:15pm Listener Jonny in MA: Hi again Tamar! I enjoy your shows very much. Thank you! I'll be listening until my meeting starts at 1pm. :)
	12:15pm tim: ↳ Crownless Gander @12:13 That's bullshit, man! You should've told the doc to put your tonsils back!
	12:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ mariano @12:15 SUBDIVISIONS
	12:15pm Roberto: ↳ mariano @12:15 He drove a mid-'60s Mustang, no doubt purchased with Jeannie money.
	12:16pm Deano de los Muertos: I used to like the scenes inside the bottle 🍾
	12:16pm Crownless Gander: ↳ tim @12:15 Ha ha, right? I was like, "But but but... but I was promised ice cream..."
	12:17pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "The Ballad of James T. Kirk" by "Jurassics" not to be confused w/ the jurassic 5....
	12:19pm common: hello!
	12:19pm Jeezy: Uh oh… is William shatner OK?! 😬
	12:19pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "The Ballad of James T. Kirk" by "Jurassics" William...Shatner...is...not...amused.
	12:20pm mariano: ↳ Song: "Bionic Feet" by "Rick Dees and his Cast of Idiots" Oh god, this is the "Disco Duck" guy, right?
	12:22pm Micheal: ↳ mariano @12:20 Sad that I know this... yes it is.
	12:22pm mrmikestandsir: This sounds an awful lot like what the garbage man plays as bed music
	12:23pm Tamar: Hey all -- Sending out ice cream and TV watching and well wishes to Michele!
	12:23pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Bionic Feet" by "Rick Dees and his Cast of Idiots" I could use a pair of those.
	12:23pm northguineahills: ↳ mariano @12:20 hayezas, mariano!
	12:23pm Dan S: ↳ Tamar @12:23 I second that!
	12:25pm morphe': Well THAT was FUN !!!!!
	12:25pm mariano: ↳ northguineahills @12:23 Hey, ngh!
	12:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Tamar and cast of listeners!
	12:26pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Good morning-ish, Tamar!
	12:27pm βrian: WFMU is my only social media.
	12:28pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ βrian @12:27 me too. Hi Tamar, hi All!
	12:29pm βrian: … I do scan the local reddit feed, I guess, but never log in.
	12:33pm Mick: ↳ Song: "Rhapsody In Blue" by "The Residents" Life just keeps getting bluer and better
	12:34pm Yes: Hello everyone
	12:34pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Rhapsody In Blue" by "The Residents" I've never heard it done quite like this before.
	12:35pm Dan S: ↳ βrian @12:27 How about anti-social media? :)
	12:37pm abbazabba: Rhapsody in Blue turned 100 this year
	12:38pm βrian: ↳ Dan S @12:35 A bit of back-and-forth with aunt Sophie, if that counts.
	12:39pm Dan S: ↳ βrian @12:38 It counts in my book.
	12:39pm waters7: thanks, Tamar, this is great. wish Michele happy healing.
	12:41pm judy from croton: Yay, Tamar!! So great to hear you and 'your' music
	12:44pm HyperDose: ↳ judy from croton @12:41 DJs must always bring enough to share with the class! media1.giphy.com...
	12:48pm pmcWhenever: the pipes da pipes -thx
	12:54pm northguineahills: ↳ Dan S @12:35 there is anti social-media and anti-social media....
	1:00pm Carmichael: I saw the calm, easily readable page and thought, "Where's Michelle?" HA HA Hi Tamar, and hope that One L is doing ok. Ice cream is on me!
	1:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Carmichael @1:00 No squeamish GIF today, either. Heh.
	1:05pm βrian: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:01 Those heinous gifs give me seizures.
	1:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ βrian @1:05 Seizures are feelings.
	1:09pm Handy Haversack: Goblin ate my Feelings shirt. That gave me feelings.
	1:10pm βrian: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:09 Those "distressed" tees are yet more valuable.
	1:13pm xtrakrispy: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:09 I have 22 WFMU shirts. I ordered a 2nd "Feelings" shirt during the Hellraiser because I love that one so damn much.
	1:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ xtrakrispy @1:13 This cat really puts a limit on me. I have to keep getting more!
	1:16pm tim: ↳ Song: "Marie Naboyi" by "Franco & Le T.P.O.K. Jazz" I forgot how Latin American music made it to the Congo. The highlife guitar with the latin rhythms and vocal delivery is pretty sweet.
	1:19pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Marie Naboyi" by "Franco & Le T.P.O.K. Jazz" I really like this. Swweeeet.
	1:20pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:19 Oh, maybe that was for the song prior... both sound great
	1:23pm S_Rah: Great music merci
	1:26pm xtrakrispy: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:15 Goblin just wants you to donate more $$ to WFMU.
	1:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:15 A chance to develop a business model where people send you their WFMU shirts and you send them back the distressed shirt. It's capitalism!
	1:31pm northguineahills: ↳ tim @1:16 we can thank cuban revolutionary activity on the continent for much of that (and their medical corps). we are so much musically richer for that!
	1:31pm Tamar: Quick wave to you all! Thanks for listening!
	1:34pm morphe': ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:01 Correct me if I am wrong but it seems to me that Michel's usual GIFs are various varieties of herself ...once asked her if she did E searches of herslf to find her dopplegangers or just from memory, but "no reply.."
	1:36pm Adi From Sheffield: Good evening.
	1:36pm tim: ↳ northguineahills @1:31 Yes! That rings a bell. Thanks, fact checking cuz!
	1:38pm Ajay from Krommenie / NL: splendid set tonight Tamar
	1:40pm morphe': ↳ northguineahills @1:31 Afro Beats went West and came back electrified .... Fela did time in UK and the West Africans en France and US Army Radio en SEA gave us Cambodian Surf ......
	1:42pm morphe': Must to the shops ... thanks Tamar and all if late for the final call...
	1:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ morphe' @1:34 Interesting. I don't think I noticed that before. Will pay closer attention in the future.
	1:45pm Marie in Chicago: Re: earlier part of the show. I wish I could lay around, eat ice cream, and watch TV today. I think I was fighting some kind of bug and then I went and got a typhoid (going to India in February!) and a shingles shot yesterday. I'm not feeling so great.
	1:48pm Adi From Sheffield: This is a lovely little set.
	1:49pm diciassette: ↳ Song: "Kid" by "Tally Ho" ah! what a melody
	1:50pm Marie in Chicago: For a sec, I thought this was gonna be a cover of "The Look of Love"...
	1:50pm josquin depressed: ↳ Song: "Kid" by "Tally Ho" Does anyone know more about this band? Very pretty Sarah Records-esque sound but I'm not finding much on Google!
	1:53pm northguineahills: ↳ morphe' @1:40 one of his lovers (sandra izzadore) recounted that fela was all about singing about his flamboyant suits until his trip to london exposed him to coltrane and jimi. said trip also attenuated him to racism, and made him devote to his career to being more political (domestically) and anti-colonial (abroad)
	1:54pm mariano: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @1:36 Hey, Adi.
	1:54pm Marie in Chicago: Any word on how Michele is doing?
	1:54pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Just Follow Me" by "Carolyn Hester Coalition" this is lovely
	1:57pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:45 I hope I don't die @)))
	1:58pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ mariano @1:54 How do 😀
	2:00pm tom tom the pipers son: hello tamar and everybody...
	2:00pm TDK60: Hello/Hola.
	2:05pm Cosmic: Hello Tamar, hi everyone. ✌️Tuning in so late. Great show last week. 🙌
	2:07pm efd: thanks for the plug Tamar! Enjoying the show!
	2:09pm MarciB: Always delightful to hear you on WFMU, Tamar! Enjoying the show while I work.
	2:09pm efd: ↳ Song: "Lady in the Front Row" by "Redd Kross" one of my faves!
	2:13pm Adi From Sheffield: Aquainting myself with some of the older LCD issues online today. Especially the wonderful illustrations of Burt Schlatter.
	2:16pm ∫ydniuß: 🐈‍⬛ mew
	2:16pm AB in Catskill: ↳ Song: "The Cat Came Back" by "Stomach Mouths" The late great artist Carolee Schneemann said to me she wanted this played at her funeral - I can't recall who did the original version. MEOW!
	2:24pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Sunspots" by "Julian Cope" A #1 hit!
	2:24pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Song: "My Rainbow Valley" by "Robert Knight" VG + +
	2:25pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): meeeoowwww
	2:25pm diciassette: ↳ Song: "Sunspots" by "Julian Cope" the arch drood!
	2:26pm Michael 98145: I got a love song in my head. Hellos, Everyone.
	2:28pm The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Coolsville USA" by "Exbats" I can't tell you how many times I listened to this song before I realized it's about Scooby Doo and Shaggy.
	2:34pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Breakfast in Bed" by "Shirley Bassey" Shirley !
	2:35pm Planet Ø Tyler: ↳ Song: "Breakfast in Bed" by "Shirley Bassey" Sorry Shirley, should just leave this one to Dusty
	2:36pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Song: "Breakfast in Bed" by "Shirley Bassey" Terrifying prospect really 😂
	2:38pm Phillippe: <3
	2:38pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:36 shirley has mainstream presence there in uk that she doesn't have here, not to same degree ...right?
	2:39pm Michael 98145: ↳ Planet Ø Tyler @2:35 prolly true
	2:40pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:38 Oh she was a big deal in the UK in the late 60's right through the 80's. She had her own TV show. Quite a household name.
	2:42pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:40 right...is she a dame...? did not know about the tv show...
	2:44pm tom tom the pipers son: was shocked to learn "there's a ghost in my house" was a dozier holland dozier song...only being familiar with fall cover
	2:44pm tom tom the pipers son: oops holand dozier holland
	2:45pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:42 She is indeed a dame. Her show was a bit of a variety show affair, marketed in the same way as Tom Jones TV efforts in the 70s. Both being Welsh might just be coincidental 😀
	2:45pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Zebra in the Kitchen" by "The Standells" We are the Knights who say zebra ni the kitchen.
	2:45pm San Pedro Girl: Hi Tamar and all! Fun show today.
	2:46pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "The Cat Came Back" by "Stomach Mouths" These Stockholm garage punks named themselves after an item culled from a tragically imprecise Swedish translation of "A Confederacy of Dunces."
	2:46pm efd: ooh I've gotta remember that "it's showtime" line! Good one, Tamar!
	2:47pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:45 when i was spending time in uk in the oughts, she popped up on the telly on chat shows more than once...
	2:51pm PaulRobeson1924: $400 bucks most boats sell for at Auction. You might as well sell it and then donate the money to FMu! Baby? I noticed you don’t need that lawn ornament. What’s it got? 1st generation Mercruiser? You used to love that boat. Now it just stares at you covered in mildew and rotting leaves. WFMU will take it
	2:51pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:47 Yeah, she was a consistent presence even as a guest on stuff. She kind of took a step back when her daughter died though. She's still around, she'll be in her late 80's now I guess.
	2:51pm mariano: ↳ Hughie Considine @2:46 Interesting! A reference to Reilly's pyloric valve? JK Toole was my mother's English prof at Dominican in the 60s.
	2:52pm misterdavid: love, thanks
	2:52pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Song: "Fade to Grey (12” Version)" by "Visage" There are so many edits of this track. And frankly I'm here for all of them 😀
	2:52pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Song: "Fade to Grey (12” Version)" by "Visage" Love this!
	2:52pm efd: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:52 YES, same!
	2:53pm Michael 98145: ⭐
	2:54pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ efd @2:52 I never tire of this as an instrumental.
	2:54pm Enflod: ↳ Song: "Fade to Grey (12” Version)" by "Visage" How do you pronounce the name of this band? VISsuj or vihSAHJ?
	2:55pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Enflod @2:54 It was alwas VisAHJ over here 😀
	2:55pm Enflod: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:55 Thank you, Adi!
	2:56pm Phillippe: Thank you Tamar! Til next week!
	2:56pm Adi From Sheffield: This has been great, Thanks Tamar.
	2:56pm efd: ↳ Enflod @2:55 You can listen to their song "Visage" and you'll hear them using the French pronunciation!
	2:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Old: Taco Tuesday New: Tamar Tuesdays
	2:57pm nortonjutland: thank you Tamar. Great show!
	2:57pm efd: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:54 the "track listing" section of the "Fade To Grey" wiki page is quite a journey! en.wikipedia.org...
	2:57pm KWilde: Looking forward to next week
	2:57pm Hughie Considine: ↳ mariano @2:51 Yes, that was it exactly. You could see why finding a precise Swedish equivalent might have ended up being a bit too literal.
	2:58pm Hughie Considine: And what a great set. Thanks, Tamar!
	2:58pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks tamar....good afternoon and whatnot everybody
	2:58pm Jason Lee: This version of Fade to Grey refuses to fade to grey (!) thanks for a great show…
	2:58pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ efd @2:57 Ooh, a couple in there I might have missed.
	2:58pm Michael 98145: guess we're here yet
	2:58pm bradford: Thanks, Tamar!
	2:59pm Stuart: I remember hearing the Love Affair's version of "Rainbow Valley" around 1968 on Scott Muni"s "Things From England" segment on WNEW-FM. https://youtu.be/k5UiDzY1UUU?feature=shared
	2:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Tamar. Posi vibes to Michele for quick healing.
	2:59pm Marie in Chicago: Thanks, Tamar!
	2:59pm Mick: Thanks for a fab show, Tamar!! Heal quickly and fully, Michele!!
	2:59pm Michael 98145: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @2:59 yes !
	2:59pm Enflod: ↳ efd @2:56 Thanks Evan!
	2:59pm mariano: Thank you!
	3:00pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Thanks!

	12:11pm Dan S: ↳ HyperDose @12:10 Yes, kidding aside, let's all send out good vibes and wishes to Michele!
	12:11pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Heyo. Back after a call. Catching up now...here's to Michele having a speedy recovery!
	12:12pm Phillippe: Yay, Tamar again!
	12:13pm Crownless Gander: I never got any ice cream when I had my tonsils taken out as an adult. Just unflavoured ice "chips"! Felt like a giant ripoff.
	12:14pm misterpickles69: I love this
	12:14pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Jeannie's Diner" by "Mark Jonathan Davis w/ Marly... Dr. Bellows lived across the street from us in the '70s/'80s.
	12:14pm tim: Hey Tamar and everyone! 'Cool Ice Cream' by Eddy Current Suppression Ring is a good ice cream jam.
	12:14pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Song: "Jeannie's Diner" by "Mark Jonathan Davis w/ Marly... This is awesome.
	12:14pm mariano: ↳ Song: "Jeannie's Diner" by "Mark Jonathan Davis w/ Marly... Wow, I never knew these were the lyrics!
	12:14pm Listener Jonny in MA: ↳ Song: "Jeannie's Diner" by "Mark Jonathan Davis w/ Marly... cute
	12:15pm mariano: ↳ Roberto @12:14 Bellows was my favorite character on the show. The urbane gentleman-officer whose sanity is constantly being tested.
	12:15pm mariano: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:11 SUBDIVISIONS
	12:15pm Listener Jonny in MA: Hi again Tamar! I enjoy your shows very much. Thank you! I'll be listening until my meeting starts at 1pm. :)
	12:15pm tim: ↳ Crownless Gander @12:13 That's bullshit, man! You should've told the doc to put your tonsils back!
	12:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ mariano @12:15 SUBDIVISIONS
	12:15pm Roberto: ↳ mariano @12:15 He drove a mid-'60s Mustang, no doubt purchased with Jeannie money.
	12:16pm Deano de los Muertos: I used to like the scenes inside the bottle 🍾
	12:16pm Crownless Gander: ↳ tim @12:15 Ha ha, right? I was like, "But but but... but I was promised ice cream..."
	12:17pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "The Ballad of James T. Kirk" by "Jurassics" not to be confused w/ the jurassic 5....
	12:19pm common: hello!
	12:19pm Jeezy: Uh oh… is William shatner OK?! 😬
	12:19pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "The Ballad of James T. Kirk" by "Jurassics" William...Shatner...is...not...amused.
	12:20pm mariano: ↳ Song: "Bionic Feet" by "Rick Dees and his Cast of Idiots" Oh god, this is the "Disco Duck" guy, right?
	12:22pm Micheal: ↳ mariano @12:20 Sad that I know this... yes it is.
	12:22pm mrmikestandsir: This sounds an awful lot like what the garbage man plays as bed music
	12:23pm Tamar: Hey all -- Sending out ice cream and TV watching and well wishes to Michele!
	12:23pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Bionic Feet" by "Rick Dees and his Cast of Idiots" I could use a pair of those.
	12:23pm northguineahills: ↳ mariano @12:20 hayezas, mariano!
	12:23pm Dan S: ↳ Tamar @12:23 I second that!
	12:25pm morphe': Well THAT was FUN !!!!!
	12:25pm mariano: ↳ northguineahills @12:23 Hey, ngh!
	12:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Tamar and cast of listeners!
	12:26pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Good morning-ish, Tamar!
	12:27pm βrian: WFMU is my only social media.
	12:28pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ βrian @12:27 me too. Hi Tamar, hi All!
	12:29pm βrian: … I do scan the local reddit feed, I guess, but never log in.
	12:33pm Mick: ↳ Song: "Rhapsody In Blue" by "The Residents" Life just keeps getting bluer and better
	12:34pm Yes: Hello everyone
	12:34pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Rhapsody In Blue" by "The Residents" I've never heard it done quite like this before.
	12:35pm Dan S: ↳ βrian @12:27 How about anti-social media? :)
	12:37pm abbazabba: Rhapsody in Blue turned 100 this year
	12:38pm βrian: ↳ Dan S @12:35 A bit of back-and-forth with aunt Sophie, if that counts.
	12:39pm Dan S: ↳ βrian @12:38 It counts in my book.
	12:39pm waters7: thanks, Tamar, this is great. wish Michele happy healing.
	12:41pm judy from croton: Yay, Tamar!! So great to hear you and 'your' music
	12:44pm HyperDose: ↳ judy from croton @12:41 DJs must always bring enough to share with the class! media1.giphy.com...
	12:48pm pmcWhenever: the pipes da pipes -thx
	12:54pm northguineahills: ↳ Dan S @12:35 there is anti social-media and anti-social media....
	1:00pm Carmichael: I saw the calm, easily readable page and thought, "Where's Michelle?" HA HA Hi Tamar, and hope that One L is doing ok. Ice cream is on me!
	1:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Carmichael @1:00 No squeamish GIF today, either. Heh.
	1:05pm βrian: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:01 Those heinous gifs give me seizures.
	1:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ βrian @1:05 Seizures are feelings.
	1:09pm Handy Haversack: Goblin ate my Feelings shirt. That gave me feelings.
	1:10pm βrian: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:09 Those "distressed" tees are yet more valuable.
	1:13pm xtrakrispy: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:09 I have 22 WFMU shirts. I ordered a 2nd "Feelings" shirt during the Hellraiser because I love that one so damn much.
	1:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ xtrakrispy @1:13 This cat really puts a limit on me. I have to keep getting more!
	1:16pm tim: ↳ Song: "Marie Naboyi" by "Franco & Le T.P.O.K. Jazz" I forgot how Latin American music made it to the Congo. The highlife guitar with the latin rhythms and vocal delivery is pretty sweet.
	1:19pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Marie Naboyi" by "Franco & Le T.P.O.K. Jazz" I really like this. Swweeeet.
	1:20pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:19 Oh, maybe that was for the song prior... both sound great
	1:23pm S_Rah: Great music merci
	1:26pm xtrakrispy: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:15 Goblin just wants you to donate more $$ to WFMU.
	1:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:15 A chance to develop a business model where people send you their WFMU shirts and you send them back the distressed shirt. It's capitalism!
	1:31pm northguineahills: ↳ tim @1:16 we can thank cuban revolutionary activity on the continent for much of that (and their medical corps). we are so much musically richer for that!
	1:31pm Tamar: Quick wave to you all! Thanks for listening!
	1:34pm morphe': ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:01 Correct me if I am wrong but it seems to me that Michel's usual GIFs are various varieties of herself ...once asked her if she did E searches of herslf to find her dopplegangers or just from memory, but "no reply.."
	1:36pm Adi From Sheffield: Good evening.
	1:36pm tim: ↳ northguineahills @1:31 Yes! That rings a bell. Thanks, fact checking cuz!
	1:38pm Ajay from Krommenie / NL: splendid set tonight Tamar
	1:40pm morphe': ↳ northguineahills @1:31 Afro Beats went West and came back electrified .... Fela did time in UK and the West Africans en France and US Army Radio en SEA gave us Cambodian Surf ......
	1:42pm morphe': Must to the shops ... thanks Tamar and all if late for the final call...
	1:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ morphe' @1:34 Interesting. I don't think I noticed that before. Will pay closer attention in the future.
	1:45pm Marie in Chicago: Re: earlier part of the show. I wish I could lay around, eat ice cream, and watch TV today. I think I was fighting some kind of bug and then I went and got a typhoid (going to India in February!) and a shingles shot yesterday. I'm not feeling so great.
	1:48pm Adi From Sheffield: This is a lovely little set.
	1:49pm diciassette: ↳ Song: "Kid" by "Tally Ho" ah! what a melody
	1:50pm Marie in Chicago: For a sec, I thought this was gonna be a cover of "The Look of Love"...
	1:50pm josquin depressed: ↳ Song: "Kid" by "Tally Ho" Does anyone know more about this band? Very pretty Sarah Records-esque sound but I'm not finding much on Google!
	1:53pm northguineahills: ↳ morphe' @1:40 one of his lovers (sandra izzadore) recounted that fela was all about singing about his flamboyant suits until his trip to london exposed him to coltrane and jimi. said trip also attenuated him to racism, and made him devote to his career to being more political (domestically) and anti-colonial (abroad)
	1:54pm mariano: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @1:36 Hey, Adi.
	1:54pm Marie in Chicago: Any word on how Michele is doing?
	1:54pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Just Follow Me" by "Carolyn Hester Coalition" this is lovely
	1:57pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:45 I hope I don't die @)))
	1:58pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ mariano @1:54 How do 😀
	2:00pm tom tom the pipers son: hello tamar and everybody...
	2:00pm TDK60: Hello/Hola.
	2:05pm Cosmic: Hello Tamar, hi everyone. ✌️Tuning in so late. Great show last week. 🙌
	2:07pm efd: thanks for the plug Tamar! Enjoying the show!
	2:09pm MarciB: Always delightful to hear you on WFMU, Tamar! Enjoying the show while I work.
	2:09pm efd: ↳ Song: "Lady in the Front Row" by "Redd Kross" one of my faves!
	2:13pm Adi From Sheffield: Aquainting myself with some of the older LCD issues online today. Especially the wonderful illustrations of Burt Schlatter.
	2:16pm ∫ydniuß: 🐈‍⬛ mew
	2:16pm AB in Catskill: ↳ Song: "The Cat Came Back" by "Stomach Mouths" The late great artist Carolee Schneemann said to me she wanted this played at her funeral - I can't recall who did the original version. MEOW!
	2:24pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Sunspots" by "Julian Cope" A #1 hit!
	2:24pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Song: "My Rainbow Valley" by "Robert Knight" VG + +
	2:25pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): meeeoowwww
	2:25pm diciassette: ↳ Song: "Sunspots" by "Julian Cope" the arch drood!
	2:26pm Michael 98145: I got a love song in my head. Hellos, Everyone.
	2:28pm The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Coolsville USA" by "Exbats" I can't tell you how many times I listened to this song before I realized it's about Scooby Doo and Shaggy.
	2:34pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Breakfast in Bed" by "Shirley Bassey" Shirley !
	2:35pm Planet Ø Tyler: ↳ Song: "Breakfast in Bed" by "Shirley Bassey" Sorry Shirley, should just leave this one to Dusty
	2:36pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Song: "Breakfast in Bed" by "Shirley Bassey" Terrifying prospect really 😂
	2:38pm Phillippe: <3
	2:38pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:36 shirley has mainstream presence there in uk that she doesn't have here, not to same degree ...right?
	2:39pm Michael 98145: ↳ Planet Ø Tyler @2:35 prolly true
	2:40pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:38 Oh she was a big deal in the UK in the late 60's right through the 80's. She had her own TV show. Quite a household name.
	2:42pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:40 right...is she a dame...? did not know about the tv show...
	2:44pm tom tom the pipers son: was shocked to learn "there's a ghost in my house" was a dozier holland dozier song...only being familiar with fall cover
	2:44pm tom tom the pipers son: oops holand dozier holland
	2:45pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:42 She is indeed a dame. Her show was a bit of a variety show affair, marketed in the same way as Tom Jones TV efforts in the 70s. Both being Welsh might just be coincidental 😀
	2:45pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Zebra in the Kitchen" by "The Standells" We are the Knights who say zebra ni the kitchen.
	2:45pm San Pedro Girl: Hi Tamar and all! Fun show today.
	2:46pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "The Cat Came Back" by "Stomach Mouths" These Stockholm garage punks named themselves after an item culled from a tragically imprecise Swedish translation of "A Confederacy of Dunces."
	2:46pm efd: ooh I've gotta remember that "it's showtime" line! Good one, Tamar!
	2:47pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:45 when i was spending time in uk in the oughts, she popped up on the telly on chat shows more than once...
	2:51pm PaulRobeson1924: $400 bucks most boats sell for at Auction. You might as well sell it and then donate the money to FMu! Baby? I noticed you don’t need that lawn ornament. What’s it got? 1st generation Mercruiser? You used to love that boat. Now it just stares at you covered in mildew and rotting leaves. WFMU will take it
	2:51pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:47 Yeah, she was a consistent presence even as a guest on stuff. She kind of took a step back when her daughter died though. She's still around, she'll be in her late 80's now I guess.
	2:51pm mariano: ↳ Hughie Considine @2:46 Interesting! A reference to Reilly's pyloric valve? JK Toole was my mother's English prof at Dominican in the 60s.
	2:52pm misterdavid: love, thanks
	2:52pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Song: "Fade to Grey (12” Version)" by "Visage" There are so many edits of this track. And frankly I'm here for all of them 😀
	2:52pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Song: "Fade to Grey (12” Version)" by "Visage" Love this!
	2:52pm efd: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:52 YES, same!
	2:53pm Michael 98145: ⭐
	2:54pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ efd @2:52 I never tire of this as an instrumental.
	2:54pm Enflod: ↳ Song: "Fade to Grey (12” Version)" by "Visage" How do you pronounce the name of this band? VISsuj or vihSAHJ?
	2:55pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Enflod @2:54 It was alwas VisAHJ over here 😀
	2:55pm Enflod: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:55 Thank you, Adi!
	2:56pm Phillippe: Thank you Tamar! Til next week!
	2:56pm Adi From Sheffield: This has been great, Thanks Tamar.
	2:56pm efd: ↳ Enflod @2:55 You can listen to their song "Visage" and you'll hear them using the French pronunciation!
	2:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Old: Taco Tuesday New: Tamar Tuesdays
	2:57pm nortonjutland: thank you Tamar. Great show!
	2:57pm efd: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @2:54 the "track listing" section of the "Fade To Grey" wiki page is quite a journey! en.wikipedia.org...
	2:57pm KWilde: Looking forward to next week
	2:57pm Hughie Considine: ↳ mariano @2:51 Yes, that was it exactly. You could see why finding a precise Swedish equivalent might have ended up being a bit too literal.
	2:58pm Hughie Considine: And what a great set. Thanks, Tamar!
	2:58pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks tamar....good afternoon and whatnot everybody
	2:58pm Jason Lee: This version of Fade to Grey refuses to fade to grey (!) thanks for a great show…
	2:58pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ efd @2:57 Ooh, a couple in there I might have missed.
	2:58pm Michael 98145: guess we're here yet
	2:58pm bradford: Thanks, Tamar!
	2:59pm Stuart: I remember hearing the Love Affair's version of "Rainbow Valley" around 1968 on Scott Muni"s "Things From England" segment on WNEW-FM. https://youtu.be/k5UiDzY1UUU?feature=shared
	2:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Tamar. Posi vibes to Michele for quick healing.
	2:59pm Marie in Chicago: Thanks, Tamar!
	2:59pm Mick: Thanks for a fab show, Tamar!! Heal quickly and fully, Michele!!
	2:59pm Michael 98145: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @2:59 yes !
	2:59pm Enflod: ↳ efd @2:56 Thanks Evan!
	2:59pm mariano: Thank you!
	3:00pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Thanks!
