	12:06pm Joe B: canceled or withdrawn singles. Record company meddling, lawsuits, artist tantrums and other assorted controversies have left a trail of "what ifs" throughout rock & roll history. We'll hear the best (or is it worst?) of them. Guaranteed no repeats from the first two installments!

	12:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Afternoon Candy-O'67
	12:29pm Candy-O'67: Hey Frank!
	12:29pm Gaylord Fields: At least Art Guy had the ability to fall back on his painting and sculpture career once his single was withdrawn.
	12:29pm StringOFperils: Hello, Candy-O, good to see you!
	12:29pm Candy-O'67: Went to star Brogues and Art - already had before!😄
	12:30pm Candy-O'67: You, too, String!
	👻 12:30pm Frank In Queens: Hi Candy!
	12:30pm Candy-O'67: Hey Gaylord! Haha!!
	12:31pm StringOFperils: Maybe the whole 'career' was some king of Art Guy performance piece.
	12:32pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Candy and friends! Gonna go back into lurk mode, but I had to get that one out. Hahaha, SOp!
	👻 12:32pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Hoboken Jack!

	👻 12:37pm Frank In Queens: Love this one.
	12:38pm Candy-O'67: Liberty Bell - yeah!!
	12:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Almost thot 'She'll Hurt You' was a young JohnCale ! :D. ...but for sure he was studying Academic music when Lou was on TinPanAlley...
	12:39pm Handy Haversack: Yo, Frank! How goes?
	12:39pm Candy-O'67: Hey Will!
	👻 12:39pm Frank In Queens: Hey Handy! Doin' fine. Yourself?
	12:40pm Candy-O'67: Love the new pic of you and Charlotte, Will!🎃🍂🍁
	👻 12:41pm Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you Candy-O!
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: Oh, getting by, Frank. Preparing for a lot of yelling and writhing and wrestling with pirate streams this evening.
	👻 12:43pm Frank In Queens: I've been there Handy...
	12:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Boy this Biz of Musics. When being Signed is a negative not a positive. I knew there was a reason I never tried to apply Creativity to the RealWorld...
	12:47pm iiibeat: Listen live from the ark-hive . .
	12:51pm Carmichael: Heya Joe and 7 inchers ...
	12:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Famous example Strawberry Fields / Penny Lane sides splitting UK Chart position - breaking Beatles' streak of #1s ...to 'Please Release Me' by EnglebertHumperdinck. Cause yerknow Englenbert really brought groundbreaking mastery for the ages there...
	12:52pm Handy Haversack: That Heart Beats tune was great. Morning, Carmichael.
	12:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...or was that debunked ?
	👻 12:55pm patrick321: Hey Joe and all gee whiz, the vicissitudes of the music biz...
	👻 12:56pm nycmusicnerd: This sounds like something the Hi-Risers would do.
	12:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Beatles and Engelbert should have collaborated: "Please release me, oh yeah, like I release you."
	12:58pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello everybody, nowhere and everywhere!
	12:59pm Frank Zaatar: The Thingies. Band Name of the Week.
	1:00pm Candy-O'67: Hey Patrick, Handy, Kevin!
	1:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...or for today here ...Please Don't Release Me...
	1:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...You Can't Release That ...nevermind...
	👻 1:02pm patrick321: Hey Candy-O
	1:03pm Marie: Hey, really enjoying the show. So funny that the record company dropped them because of use of AA lit.
	1:05pm b0b0b0b Plasticland: Joe B ..was that Brogues band you played earlier ..the Milwaukee Brogues??
	1:05pm Miss G: Oh! Such a sad story with The Heart Beats! That was a great single.
	1:05pm Carmichael: Leave it to Mom to screw it all up.
	👻 1:07pm James in ATL: These are all so interesting - Thanks, Joe!
	1:09pm Handy Haversack: Hi, Candy-O!
	1:09pm b0b0b0b plasticland: Gestures. from Minn.? run run baby ??
	1:10pm Son Of Pantz: I dig this version.
	👻 1:11pm prof.fuzz: @tim: just got to the office and am frantically changing my lecture notes from "the qin empire" to "frat rock."
	1:11pm Miss Georgia Peach: 👏👏👏👏
	1:12pm Candy-O'67: Hey bobobob!
	👻 1:12pm prof.fuzz: hey miss GP!
	1:14pm Handy Haversack: Messengering over some gently used muscle Ts, prof.fuzz!
	1:16pm steveo: YES the movie medley -- haven't thought about this in ages
	1:16pm b0b0b0b: Hey Candy wasssup..startin to get a lil chilli temp wise here in Georgia..lookin forward to my trip to Austin/Round rock/Georgetown...next month
	👻 1:17pm Frank In Queens: This was around the time of "Reel Music" right?
	1:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sounds like heavy on the Lennon ? - market wanting something after his murder Dec.'80 I fear. Label then maybe still fearing exploitation.
	1:17pm Carmichael: Every song in the same key?
	1:17pm b0b0b0b: No wonder Indiana Wanted R. Dean.
	1:18pm Joe B: @frank - yes to promote reel music
	1:18pm Candy-O'67: Bobobob, it is here, too. We had rain last night and today and we're only in the 60's today. It's starting to warm back up in a couple days, high 80's again, but chilly at night. We'll have to hang out when you visit!
	👻 1:18pm tim from washington: @prof - the historical geo-political reverberations of a ubiquitous Louie Louie cover obviously had a major impact in China.
	👻 1:18pm Frank In Queens: @Joe, one of the first records that was bought for me rather than just inherited.
	👻 1:19pm Hughie Considine: This is John and Yoko's "Mull of Kintyre"
	1:19pm Handy Haversack: It's not exactly "Young Ned of the Hill" or "The Birmingham Six," but I can see how it might have ruffled some English feathers.
	1:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Still like 'Sometime in NYC' better than most of the known universe. Or @ least see its merits. Some of the ways Lennon was Punk I think actually under-recognized.
	1:20pm Hopey Sockmonkey: @ Hughie Considine Or "Give Ireland Back to the Irish".
	1:20pm Carmichael: A Japanese person singing Irish rebel songs to the uptight British. Radio gold ...
	1:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Their 'Give Ireland Back to the Irish'...
	1:21pm PJ: I’m half Irish, but this Lennon song is just embarrassing
	1:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: But seeing Hughie's point. Lennon more relevant, Macca more musical. Imagine if they'd ever collaborated...
	1:22pm Woo: coulda done w/o Freedom
	👻 1:23pm Hughie Considine: Imagine, @RR. Also, the two songs share a sort of nautical rolling cadence ...
	1:23pm Krys O.: Hello!
	1:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Britannia Waves the Rules.
	1:24pm wind: I love this twist Joe😎Singles going nowhere is So creative!
	1:24pm LesleyK: Hi Joe!
	1:25pm Candy-O'67: Hey Lesley, Woo!
	1:25pm Woo: A Paul Is Dead song by Terry
	1:25pm Joe B: @woo - the song that started it all!
	1:26pm Woo: Hey Candy-O!
	1:27pm LesleyK: Hey Candy and Woo!
	1:27pm Handy Haversack: Snarky! Hey hey, LesleyK!
	1:27pm tadpoles: Gotta say Terry...this is bad, bad, bad!
	1:28pm StringOFperils: Litigious Dead Walrus. I can see (hear) why...
	1:28pm LesleyK: Hey Handy!
	1:28pm JetBoy now of Astoria: Hi all - another great show idea, thanks Joe.
	1:28pm Miss G: I feel insane from this "Saint Paul" L
	1:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Realizing there's a leetle subgenre of singers who sounded like / aimed for RegPresley...
	1:30pm StringOFperils: This one's just a tiny bit too early to have benefited from glam
	1:30pm b0b0b0b: never mind ...the one from milwaukee is barogues
	1:31pm Christopher Parfitt: It’s crazy that Capitol gave shameless Terry such a cushy budget to record “Saint Paul” but I guess Grand Funk were already exploding in popularity. Still.
	1:33pm Christopher Parfitt: Oh yeah. Brute’s own version of Nobody Knowa What’s Goin On in My Mind But me is absolutely demonic. About a million times better than King of Fuh IMO
	1:35pm Uleeshuh TN: well that explains why St Paul was not Shazaming
	1:39pm Woo: another fav Paul Is Dead clue: Death Cab for Cutie by the Bonzo Dog Band (performed in Magical Mystery Tour) is supposedly about the ambulance/hearse used to take away the cute Beatle.
	1:41pm Dennis Diken: Go, Joe, diggin’ the show! Hey, gang! Can’t hang out too much today but I’ll be listening, for sure.
	1:42pm Handy Haversack: Single tear on Ringo's cheek for that one, Woo!
	1:42pm Jeezuseffinchrist: these lyrics remind me of a certain Brak song
	1:44pm Joe B: never heard that one woo!
	1:44pm tadpoles: Sorry #Woo...no..."Death Cab For Cutie" was on The Bonzo's first LP "Gorilla"which came out in 1967. Performed later on MM Tour.
	1:45pm Handy Haversack: Joe, you could crank up the degree of difficulty next year by doing a McGasko-esque Chain of Singles Going Nowhere.
	1:45pm Joe B: hey dennis!
	1:45pm Handy Haversack: (Though it would be hard to find a song title that starts with "Bamalama." But that's why you're the Champ!)
	1:46pm Joe B: ha, maybe next year
	1:46pm medson: Love this one.
	1:47pm Kat in Chicago: Gonna have to re-listen to this one, work is too worky and I’m missing all the commentary 😕
	1:47pm timinoak: Love this
	1:47pm Uleeshuh TN: rip off of Ruler Of My Heart
	1:47pm Joe B: yes they got sued
	1:47pm Gaylord Fields: @Handy: www.youtube.com...
	1:48pm Tim from LH: I am digging this concept and loving the show!
	1:48pm Joe B: thanks tim!
	1:48pm Joe B: hey gaylord!
	1:49pm Handy Haversack: Excellent, Gaylord! Do we know if the single was ever canceled or withdrawn or cursed or abandoned at the altar or anything?
	1:49pm Gaylord Fields: Hiya, Joe! This show is catnip for the likes of me! Thanks!
	1:49pm Woo: Yes @tadpoles, but the fact that it was used in MMT was a death clue. It was also suggested that Viv Stanshall replaced Paul.
	1:50pm Son Of Pantz: I never thought I'd hear a song from the POV of Bluto.
	👻 1:50pm Hughie Considine: Bluto went ape-shit when he heard this.
	1:51pm Gaylord Fields: @Handy: LR abandoned the ministry to make secular music again with that song, so that'll have to do.
	1:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I mean Stanshall & McCartney - practically identical. (??)
	1:53pm Gaylord Fields: One might as well suggest that Viv Vance replaced Paul for all the lack of similarity between Stanshall and McCartney!
	1:53pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: Going to need an explanation for that brief English announcer!
	1:54pm Handy Haversack: Gaylord, during the 2021 Marathon, I won a biography of Little Richard on Michael Shelley's show, and I finally read it this past spring. Really fascinating, the many pushes and pulls in his life. I was hooked from the get-go. Another gift from WFMU!
	1:54pm Gaylord Fields: @Patrick: That was Joe's original voice, later withdrawn for the Jersey City version.
	1:54pm Slaboch: This is such a fantastic show Joe!
	1:55pm Joe B: ha ha - played it off youtube
	1:55pm Joe B: @slaboch - thanks Michael!
	1:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I Love Lucy ...in the Sky with Diamonds...
	1:59pm BillD: This show is a great idea for a premium next year, hint hint.
	2:01pm Alvy Singer: Hi Joe B--The factoids about each release as well as the machinations behind some of these releases is really cool. Good stuff sir.
	👻 2:07pm tim from washington: If it’s all been said before, I guess there’s not much reason to release it.
	2:10pm chris_in_space: What a treat this show is. You spoil us, @Joe.
	2:16pm Miss G: Am pulled away, thanks so much Joe, will check in archives!
	2:16pm efd: no Singles Gong Seventies this week, I'm afraid! I feel okay now but I'm still testing positive, so I've got to get a fill-in for this week. :(
	2:17pm Strandlund: Sending pixie your way. efd!!
	2:18pm Joe B: ugh sorry efd!
	2:18pm Hopey Sockmonkey: efd, oh no! I was looking forward to your show, but safety first. Hope you feel better!
	👻 2:18pm prof.fuzz: test well soon, efd!
	2:18pm efd: @Joe B I appreciate the plug! I'll end up doing it sometime in November, I guess. It's too much fun for me to just skip it!
	2:18pm MG: Love that you're playing this, Joe. Early Madonna is always fun
	2:18pm Handy Haversack: Argh, sorry to hear it, efd -- but very glad you're feeling better! We miss you! The 100' Ethernet cable isn't coming out of retirement for one more shot at the title?
	👻 2:19pm prof.fuzz: @handy: i heard the ethernet cable got covered in greece...
	2:20pm efd: @Handy Maybe if it wasn't Singles Going Steady week I'd try to rustle up a board op so I could do the show remotely, but with only one turntable at Studio EFD it's better to just skip it this week.
	2:21pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: wow this Madonna is a great find
	2:21pm Carmichael: Sounds like Michael Jackson
	2:22pm Handy Haversack: I feel you, efd. Will be glad to hear it whenever it airs!
	2:23pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: OK this Madonna takes me right back to high school....
	2:23pm listener monica: The title "Ain't No Big Deal" speaks for itself.
	2:23pm timinoak: Madonna forever.
	2:23pm Joe M: All clothes are now off
	2:24pm Joe B: good point monica!
	2:25pm ryansterlingvirtue: My fav Madonna
	2:25pm joe mulligan: my clothes are still on, but love the scrapped madonna single!
	👻 2:25pm Hughie Considine: total banger
	2:26pm Joe B: an all time blunder not putting out this 7"
	2:26pm wind: ♥️♥️♥️
	2:27pm Ciggy: Salute 🍸 to the man - Joe Belock
	2:28pm Miss Georgia Peach: Hey All!! 💋 Cool Madonna find Joe ❤️👂
	2:28pm Handy Haversack: Seriously, Joe. That Madonna might have been a star!
	2:28pm Gaylord Fields: How was "Into the Groove" — the singliest single Madonna ever singled — never released as one?!
	2:29pm Joe B: was released in every country but the US. sire execs didn't want it competing with "Angel"
	2:29pm Roberto: To think how big she might have been if they had only released that single.
	2:29pm Joe B: it was on the b side of the Angel 12-inch but not eligible for the Hot 100
	2:30pm Son Of Pantz: I'd settle for money of any color, right now.
	2:30pm Joe B: it was madonna's first No. 1 in the UK
	2:31pm goes211: It’s not called free form for nothing. Sounds great, Joe!
	👻 2:32pm Hughie Considine: Angel? Sometimes I forget how big Punky Meadows was.
	2:32pm Kat in Chicago: Bummer efd 😢 I hope you are feeling better!
	2:33pm JetBoy now of Astoria: I understand this song was originally going to be about shuffle puck
	2:34pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: I remember hearing the Elton John version on some compilation in the 1980s
	2:34pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: OOOH Love this Elton.
	👻 2:35pm prof.fuzz: @jetboy: Wow. I'd always heard that it was originally about cornhole. "that deaf dumb and blind kid sure plays mean cornhole!"
	2:35pm ?: best euphemism for compulsive masturbation ever
	2:35pm Joe B: ha yes prof!
	2:36pm Tim from LH: This surprises me, thought it only existed as a single and on the Tommy soundtrack .
	2:36pm JetBoy now of Astoria: @prof fuzz: it’s all lost to time now
	2:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Great version.
	2:37pm Carmichael: I have this version somewhere at home. Mrs. Carmichael is an uber Elton fan.
	2:37pm Joe M: Will these series of programs be available for order on open reel tape?
	2:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Elton great also in the movie - one even those of us who like it perhaps kinda go back & forth on...
	2:38pm Carmichael: Conversely, I also have the Who's version of Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting.
	2:39pm Woo: I'd watch the Tommy movie just to see Ann-Margrock
	2:39pm Brian in UK: Goldie & the Gingerbreads?
	2:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Woo naturally.
	2:40pm Joe B: same goldie, minus the gingerbreads
	2:41pm Brian in UK: Crosby's song. i think not.
	👻 2:41pm Hughie Considine: Crosby objected while Stills chilled...
	2:41pm Joe B: yeah, crosby was the one objecting to releasing it
	2:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dylan protesting being a protest singer.
	2:46pm Brian in UK: Was that Gary Usher producing? You could always argue that they recorded too many Dylan songs. It did Bob no harm to hear his songs electrified. He got a whole new lease of touring life which continues to this day.
	2:47pm Ryansterlingvirtue: i had the into the groove 12"
	2:47pm Joe M: Ahh ye olde phonolog
	2:48pm Paulie B: If MCA was worried about EJ's Pinball Wizard promoting Polydor's album sales, wouldn't it make MORE sense to make a single version commerically available? Good to know record companies have always been self-destructively short sighted.
	2:49pm Candy-O'67: Haha, How!
	2:49pm Gaylord Fields: Cancel Culture (Club)
	2:49pm Candy-O'67: *Joe! Funny typo!!
	2:50pm bigplanetnoise: Great show, JB!!
	2:50pm Handy Haversack: Whoa.
	2:50pm Woo: Wow
	2:50pm B R M: F this record (great show, Joe!)
	👻 2:50pm Jason from Houston: Dang.
	2:50pm KevinfromBayRidge: Any lyrics about heelspurs?
	2:51pm JetBoy now of Astoria: Good old pro war song.
	👻 2:51pm nycmusicnerd: Geez Louise.
	2:51pm Kotzwinkled: Stupid Yellow Berets, wanting to...stay alive.
	2:51pm Paulie B: Yikes. I didn't think The Ballad Of The Green Beret could get worse.
	👻 2:51pm prof.fuzz: @kevin: BAM!
	👻 2:51pm Hughie Considine: oh, well, he got his!
	2:51pm joe mulligan: this song is epic on a meta level. for the record I have been and always will be anti war
	2:51pm Brian in UK: Barry Sadler never got much traction over here.
	2:51pm The Oscar: Between this and the Scott Walker Joe M played, it's quite a day for jaw-dropping "Almost Famous" tracks!
	2:51pm JetBoy now of Astoria: They should take this beauty on the road to Russia
	👻 2:52pm prof.fuzz: @kevin: the judges would have also accepted "pooped and pissed himself"...
	2:52pm Kotzwinkled: Is this song about Ted Nugent?
	2:52pm Handy Haversack: Did not see the freak-out breakdown fade-out coming.
	2:52pm joe mulligan: the common misconception is that surfers and beach bums are easy going. quite the opposite is true, and it showed during the pandemic
	2:52pm Brian in UK: Think Phil Ochs covered topic this on Draft Dodger Rag!
	2:53pm bigplanetnoise: Top top top tune!!
	2:53pm listener 126464: Thanks Joe, great show today.
	2:54pm joe mulligan: "Are You Kidding Me Records" and sung by "D. Dodger"
	👻 2:54pm nycmusicnerd: Thanks Joe!
	2:55pm Handy Haversack: Many thanks, Joe! They might have gone nowhere, but the show really went places! Great stuff. Later on, Montebanks!
	2:55pm Ed: Wow. Not a mention about the lower classes who provided the majority of meat for the Vietnam grinder.
	2:56pm B R M: This is one my favorite shows of the year, and once again, @Joe B doesn't miss! Thanks Joe!
	2:56pm joe mulligan: good point Ed
	👻 2:57pm prof.fuzz: thanks joeB!
	2:57pm Listener Jumpy in Brooklyn: Madonna, newly signed to W.B., came and played the bar at Queens College. Can't recall if she did these.
	2:57pm Annette: Thanks Joe!
	2:58pm Woo: Thanks Joe! The walrus was Paul!
	👻 2:58pm Frank In Queens: Great show Joe! Love this annual tradition.
	2:58pm JetBoy now of Astoria: Great show Joe!

	12:39pm Handy Haversack: Yo, Frank! How goes?

	👻 12:43pm Frank In Queens: I've been there Handy...
	12:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Boy this Biz of Musics. When being Signed is a negative not a positive. I knew there was a reason I never tried to apply Creativity to the RealWorld...
	12:47pm iiibeat: Listen live from the ark-hive . .
	12:51pm Carmichael: Heya Joe and 7 inchers ...
	12:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Famous example Strawberry Fields / Penny Lane sides splitting UK Chart position - breaking Beatles' streak of #1s ...to 'Please Release Me' by EnglebertHumperdinck. Cause yerknow Englenbert really brought groundbreaking mastery for the ages there...
	12:52pm Handy Haversack: That Heart Beats tune was great. Morning, Carmichael.
	12:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...or was that debunked ?
	👻 12:55pm patrick321: Hey Joe and all gee whiz, the vicissitudes of the music biz...
	👻 12:56pm nycmusicnerd: This sounds like something the Hi-Risers would do.
	12:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Beatles and Engelbert should have collaborated: "Please release me, oh yeah, like I release you."
	12:58pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello everybody, nowhere and everywhere!
	12:59pm Frank Zaatar: The Thingies. Band Name of the Week.
	1:00pm Candy-O'67: Hey Patrick, Handy, Kevin!

	1:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...You Can't Release That ...nevermind...
	👻 1:02pm patrick321: Hey Candy-O
	1:03pm Marie: Hey, really enjoying the show. So funny that the record company dropped them because of use of AA lit.
	1:05pm b0b0b0b Plasticland: Joe B ..was that Brogues band you played earlier ..the Milwaukee Brogues??
	1:05pm Miss G: Oh! Such a sad story with The Heart Beats! That was a great single.
	1:05pm Carmichael: Leave it to Mom to screw it all up.
	👻 1:07pm James in ATL: These are all so interesting - Thanks, Joe!

	1:10pm Son Of Pantz: I dig this version.
	👻 1:11pm prof.fuzz: @tim: just got to the office and am frantically changing my lecture notes from "the qin empire" to "frat rock."
	1:11pm Miss Georgia Peach: 👏👏👏👏
	1:12pm Candy-O'67: Hey bobobob!
	👻 1:12pm prof.fuzz: hey miss GP!
	1:14pm Handy Haversack: Messengering over some gently used muscle Ts, prof.fuzz!
	1:16pm steveo: YES the movie medley -- haven't thought about this in ages
	1:16pm b0b0b0b: Hey Candy wasssup..startin to get a lil chilli temp wise here in Georgia..lookin forward to my trip to Austin/Round rock/Georgetown...next month
	👻 1:17pm Frank In Queens: This was around the time of "Reel Music" right?
	1:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sounds like heavy on the Lennon ? - market wanting something after his murder Dec.'80 I fear. Label then maybe still fearing exploitation.
	1:17pm Carmichael: Every song in the same key?
	1:17pm b0b0b0b: No wonder Indiana Wanted R. Dean.
	1:18pm Joe B: @frank - yes to promote reel music
	1:18pm Candy-O'67: Bobobob, it is here, too. We had rain last night and today and we're only in the 60's today. It's starting to warm back up in a couple days, high 80's again, but chilly at night. We'll have to hang out when you visit!
	👻 1:18pm tim from washington: @prof - the historical geo-political reverberations of a ubiquitous Louie Louie cover obviously had a major impact in China.
	👻 1:18pm Frank In Queens: @Joe, one of the first records that was bought for me rather than just inherited.
	👻 1:19pm Hughie Considine: This is John and Yoko's "Mull of Kintyre"
	1:19pm Handy Haversack: It's not exactly "Young Ned of the Hill" or "The Birmingham Six," but I can see how it might have ruffled some English feathers.
	1:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Still like 'Sometime in NYC' better than most of the known universe. Or @ least see its merits. Some of the ways Lennon was Punk I think actually under-recognized.
	1:20pm Hopey Sockmonkey: @ Hughie Considine Or "Give Ireland Back to the Irish".
	1:20pm Carmichael: A Japanese person singing Irish rebel songs to the uptight British. Radio gold ...
	1:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Their 'Give Ireland Back to the Irish'...
	1:21pm PJ: I’m half Irish, but this Lennon song is just embarrassing
	1:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: But seeing Hughie's point. Lennon more relevant, Macca more musical. Imagine if they'd ever collaborated...
	1:22pm Woo: coulda done w/o Freedom
	👻 1:23pm Hughie Considine: Imagine, @RR. Also, the two songs share a sort of nautical rolling cadence ...
	1:23pm Krys O.: Hello!
	1:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Britannia Waves the Rules.
	1:24pm wind: I love this twist Joe😎Singles going nowhere is So creative!
	1:24pm LesleyK: Hi Joe!
	1:25pm Candy-O'67: Hey Lesley, Woo!
	1:25pm Woo: A Paul Is Dead song by Terry
	1:25pm Joe B: @woo - the song that started it all!
	1:26pm Woo: Hey Candy-O!
	1:27pm LesleyK: Hey Candy and Woo!
	1:27pm Handy Haversack: Snarky! Hey hey, LesleyK!
	1:27pm tadpoles: Gotta say Terry...this is bad, bad, bad!
	1:28pm StringOFperils: Litigious Dead Walrus. I can see (hear) why...
	1:28pm LesleyK: Hey Handy!
	1:28pm JetBoy now of Astoria: Hi all - another great show idea, thanks Joe.
	1:28pm Miss G: I feel insane from this "Saint Paul" L
	1:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Realizing there's a leetle subgenre of singers who sounded like / aimed for RegPresley...
	1:30pm StringOFperils: This one's just a tiny bit too early to have benefited from glam
	1:30pm b0b0b0b: never mind ...the one from milwaukee is barogues
	1:31pm Christopher Parfitt: It’s crazy that Capitol gave shameless Terry such a cushy budget to record “Saint Paul” but I guess Grand Funk were already exploding in popularity. Still.
	1:33pm Christopher Parfitt: Oh yeah. Brute’s own version of Nobody Knowa What’s Goin On in My Mind But me is absolutely demonic. About a million times better than King of Fuh IMO
	1:35pm Uleeshuh TN: well that explains why St Paul was not Shazaming
	1:39pm Woo: another fav Paul Is Dead clue: Death Cab for Cutie by the Bonzo Dog Band (performed in Magical Mystery Tour) is supposedly about the ambulance/hearse used to take away the cute Beatle.
	1:41pm Dennis Diken: Go, Joe, diggin’ the show! Hey, gang! Can’t hang out too much today but I’ll be listening, for sure.
	1:42pm Handy Haversack: Single tear on Ringo's cheek for that one, Woo!
	1:42pm Jeezuseffinchrist: these lyrics remind me of a certain Brak song
	1:44pm Joe B: never heard that one woo!
	1:44pm tadpoles: Sorry #Woo...no..."Death Cab For Cutie" was on The Bonzo's first LP "Gorilla"which came out in 1967. Performed later on MM Tour.
	1:45pm Handy Haversack: Joe, you could crank up the degree of difficulty next year by doing a McGasko-esque Chain of Singles Going Nowhere.
	1:45pm Joe B: hey dennis!
	1:45pm Handy Haversack: (Though it would be hard to find a song title that starts with "Bamalama." But that's why you're the Champ!)
	1:46pm Joe B: ha, maybe next year
	1:46pm medson: Love this one.
	1:47pm Kat in Chicago: Gonna have to re-listen to this one, work is too worky and I’m missing all the commentary 😕
	1:47pm timinoak: Love this
	1:47pm Uleeshuh TN: rip off of Ruler Of My Heart
	1:47pm Joe B: yes they got sued
	1:47pm Gaylord Fields: @Handy: www.youtube.com...
	1:48pm Tim from LH: I am digging this concept and loving the show!
	1:48pm Joe B: thanks tim!
	1:48pm Joe B: hey gaylord!
	1:49pm Handy Haversack: Excellent, Gaylord! Do we know if the single was ever canceled or withdrawn or cursed or abandoned at the altar or anything?
	1:49pm Gaylord Fields: Hiya, Joe! This show is catnip for the likes of me! Thanks!
	1:49pm Woo: Yes @tadpoles, but the fact that it was used in MMT was a death clue. It was also suggested that Viv Stanshall replaced Paul.
	1:50pm Son Of Pantz: I never thought I'd hear a song from the POV of Bluto.
	👻 1:50pm Hughie Considine: Bluto went ape-shit when he heard this.
	1:51pm Gaylord Fields: @Handy: LR abandoned the ministry to make secular music again with that song, so that'll have to do.
	1:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I mean Stanshall & McCartney - practically identical. (??)
	1:53pm Gaylord Fields: One might as well suggest that Viv Vance replaced Paul for all the lack of similarity between Stanshall and McCartney!
	1:53pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: Going to need an explanation for that brief English announcer!
	1:54pm Handy Haversack: Gaylord, during the 2021 Marathon, I won a biography of Little Richard on Michael Shelley's show, and I finally read it this past spring. Really fascinating, the many pushes and pulls in his life. I was hooked from the get-go. Another gift from WFMU!
	1:54pm Gaylord Fields: @Patrick: That was Joe's original voice, later withdrawn for the Jersey City version.
	1:54pm Slaboch: This is such a fantastic show Joe!
	1:55pm Joe B: ha ha - played it off youtube
	1:55pm Joe B: @slaboch - thanks Michael!
	1:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I Love Lucy ...in the Sky with Diamonds...
	1:59pm BillD: This show is a great idea for a premium next year, hint hint.
	2:01pm Alvy Singer: Hi Joe B--The factoids about each release as well as the machinations behind some of these releases is really cool. Good stuff sir.
	👻 2:07pm tim from washington: If it’s all been said before, I guess there’s not much reason to release it.
	2:10pm chris_in_space: What a treat this show is. You spoil us, @Joe.
	2:16pm Miss G: Am pulled away, thanks so much Joe, will check in archives!
	2:16pm efd: no Singles Gong Seventies this week, I'm afraid! I feel okay now but I'm still testing positive, so I've got to get a fill-in for this week. :(
	2:17pm Strandlund: Sending pixie your way. efd!!
	2:18pm Joe B: ugh sorry efd!
	2:18pm Hopey Sockmonkey: efd, oh no! I was looking forward to your show, but safety first. Hope you feel better!
	👻 2:18pm prof.fuzz: test well soon, efd!
	2:18pm efd: @Joe B I appreciate the plug! I'll end up doing it sometime in November, I guess. It's too much fun for me to just skip it!
	2:18pm MG: Love that you're playing this, Joe. Early Madonna is always fun
	2:18pm Handy Haversack: Argh, sorry to hear it, efd -- but very glad you're feeling better! We miss you! The 100' Ethernet cable isn't coming out of retirement for one more shot at the title?
	👻 2:19pm prof.fuzz: @handy: i heard the ethernet cable got covered in greece...
	2:20pm efd: @Handy Maybe if it wasn't Singles Going Steady week I'd try to rustle up a board op so I could do the show remotely, but with only one turntable at Studio EFD it's better to just skip it this week.
	2:21pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: wow this Madonna is a great find
	2:21pm Carmichael: Sounds like Michael Jackson
	2:22pm Handy Haversack: I feel you, efd. Will be glad to hear it whenever it airs!
	2:23pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: OK this Madonna takes me right back to high school....
	2:23pm listener monica: The title "Ain't No Big Deal" speaks for itself.
	2:23pm timinoak: Madonna forever.
	2:23pm Joe M: All clothes are now off

	2:26pm Joe B: an all time blunder not putting out this 7"
	2:26pm wind: ♥️♥️♥️
	2:27pm Ciggy: Salute 🍸 to the man - Joe Belock
	2:28pm Miss Georgia Peach: Hey All!! 💋 Cool Madonna find Joe ❤️👂
	2:28pm Handy Haversack: Seriously, Joe. That Madonna might have been a star!
	2:28pm Gaylord Fields: How was "Into the Groove" — the singliest single Madonna ever singled — never released as one?!
	2:29pm Joe B: was released in every country but the US. sire execs didn't want it competing with "Angel"
	2:29pm Roberto: To think how big she might have been if they had only released that single.
	2:29pm Joe B: it was on the b side of the Angel 12-inch but not eligible for the Hot 100
	2:30pm Son Of Pantz: I'd settle for money of any color, right now.
	2:30pm Joe B: it was madonna's first No. 1 in the UK
	2:31pm goes211: It’s not called free form for nothing. Sounds great, Joe!
	👻 2:32pm Hughie Considine: Angel? Sometimes I forget how big Punky Meadows was.
	2:32pm Kat in Chicago: Bummer efd 😢 I hope you are feeling better!
	2:33pm JetBoy now of Astoria: I understand this song was originally going to be about shuffle puck
	2:34pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: I remember hearing the Elton John version on some compilation in the 1980s
	2:34pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: OOOH Love this Elton.
	👻 2:35pm prof.fuzz: @jetboy: Wow. I'd always heard that it was originally about cornhole. "that deaf dumb and blind kid sure plays mean cornhole!"
	2:35pm ?: best euphemism for compulsive masturbation ever
	2:35pm Joe B: ha yes prof!
	2:36pm Tim from LH: This surprises me, thought it only existed as a single and on the Tommy soundtrack .
	2:36pm JetBoy now of Astoria: @prof fuzz: it’s all lost to time now
	2:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Great version.
	2:37pm Carmichael: I have this version somewhere at home. Mrs. Carmichael is an uber Elton fan.
	2:37pm Joe M: Will these series of programs be available for order on open reel tape?
	2:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Elton great also in the movie - one even those of us who like it perhaps kinda go back & forth on...
	2:38pm Carmichael: Conversely, I also have the Who's version of Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting.
	2:39pm Woo: I'd watch the Tommy movie just to see Ann-Margrock
	2:39pm Brian in UK: Goldie & the Gingerbreads?
	2:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Woo naturally.
	2:40pm Joe B: same goldie, minus the gingerbreads
	2:41pm Brian in UK: Crosby's song. i think not.

	2:41pm Joe B: yeah, crosby was the one objecting to releasing it
	2:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dylan protesting being a protest singer.
	2:46pm Brian in UK: Was that Gary Usher producing? You could always argue that they recorded too many Dylan songs. It did Bob no harm to hear his songs electrified. He got a whole new lease of touring life which continues to this day.
	2:47pm Ryansterlingvirtue: i had the into the groove 12"
	2:47pm Joe M: Ahh ye olde phonolog
	2:48pm Paulie B: If MCA was worried about EJ's Pinball Wizard promoting Polydor's album sales, wouldn't it make MORE sense to make a single version commerically available? Good to know record companies have always been self-destructively short sighted.
	2:49pm Candy-O'67: Haha, How!
	2:49pm Gaylord Fields: Cancel Culture (Club)
	2:49pm Candy-O'67: *Joe! Funny typo!!

	2:51pm Kotzwinkled: Stupid Yellow Berets, wanting to...stay alive.
	2:51pm Paulie B: Yikes. I didn't think The Ballad Of The Green Beret could get worse.
	👻 2:51pm prof.fuzz: @kevin: BAM!
	👻 2:51pm Hughie Considine: oh, well, he got his!
	2:51pm joe mulligan: this song is epic on a meta level. for the record I have been and always will be anti war
	2:51pm Brian in UK: Barry Sadler never got much traction over here.
	2:51pm The Oscar: Between this and the Scott Walker Joe M played, it's quite a day for jaw-dropping "Almost Famous" tracks!
	2:51pm JetBoy now of Astoria: They should take this beauty on the road to Russia
	👻 2:52pm prof.fuzz: @kevin: the judges would have also accepted "pooped and pissed himself"...
	2:52pm Kotzwinkled: Is this song about Ted Nugent?
	2:52pm Handy Haversack: Did not see the freak-out breakdown fade-out coming.
	2:52pm joe mulligan: the common misconception is that surfers and beach bums are easy going. quite the opposite is true, and it showed during the pandemic
