WFMU: Irwin Chusid: Playlist from April 8, 2009

Listener comments!
	3:04pm Dead Corporate Eyes: an empty chalkboard to scrawl on.
	3:04pm Pearly Sweets: Swinging!
	3:04pm Ike: Hello all. Irwin, have you heard the new Metric album? I think you would love it. You would love it like a purring cat.
	3:05pm Cecile: what a lovely tribute page to Lou D'Antonio. Never heard his show, but today's WFMU stands on his shoulders.
	3:10pm Sean Daily: Fifth comment or thereabouts! Woo hoo!
	3:12pm fishmonkeystew: Every day as I listen to WFMU I send home emails labeled "music" with the names of artists, songs and albums to follow up. I've sent about 12 today.
	3:17pm Cecile: Oh, don't apologize Irwin. Pay tribute!
	3:18pm G.: Hear hear Cecile...
	3:21pm Parq: It looks like I'm going to get very little work done this afternoon. I remember the Duck well, and am going to be glued to this show.
	3:22pm fishmonkeystew: It's people like Lou that make it easier to sift through the insanity that is this world.
	3:25pm G.: Were the names Vin Scelsa and Pseu Braun? Woohoo, first internet comment on a 1978 audio stream!
	3:32pm Ike: I was not around for the Duck when originally on the air, so this is fun and educational. Some current comedic programs could learn a thing or several. The fact that he moved to Vermont must mean he was a man of great taste. Or taste in states anyway.
	3:34pm Lizardner Dave: The Duck was before my time, so this is interesting.
	3:44pm Cecile: Gee, I'm nostalgic for great radio I never heard.
	3:50pm Cecile: you are correct, Irwin! I remember getting a Bob and Ray book in HS, and just loved it. The House of Toast!
	4:00pm Ismael: Bob & Ray were the shiznit! as you might know, Bob [Elliott] is the father of Chris Elliott.
	4:02pm Cecile: That I know! And he made great appearances on "Get a Life"
	4:04pm fishmonkeystew: Is there a Duck archive? Did I already miss that info? Great show, Irwin. Thanks for sharing. I can feel my brain expanding as I listen.
	4:07pm BSI: The komodo dragon.... is... the world's largest.... living lizard...
	4:11pm G.: @fish: at the bottom of the tribute page ( http://www.wfmu.org/ldtrib.html ) check the not-yet-active link to: The Hour of the Duck Audio Archives (coming soon)
	4:13pm dagwood: great show Irwin. Coincidence that Bob Elliott was on a show called Radio Deluxe last night with John Pizarelli (sp). Bob was talking about his shows and spinning OLD Bing Crosby. A hoot.
	4:17pm Cecile: Dagwood, is there a link or archive to that?
	4:23pm randy in NC: And Chris Elliott's daughter is Abby Elliott now on SNL
	4:31pm Cecile: Ah! The seed of the Handsome Boy Modeling School!
	4:33pm Ike: Sorry Irwin, I just looked, and there do not appear to be any archives at WNCS's web site.
	4:33pm Ismael: Charm School for Men must have influenced Chris Elliott's "Handsome Boy Modeling School" on "Get a Life," where his character enrolls to become a male model.
	4:36pm dagwood: cecile. I found a link. It is a good show on NPR. http://www.johnpizzarelli.com/go.php?id=6
	4:36pm thecleef: I'm reading Chris Elliott's newest book...fun
	4:37pm Cecile: Thanks, dagwood. Yes, Ismael. The sketch on Get a Life, and Handsome Boy inspired that funny hip hop group from the 90s
	4:38pm G.: Yep, Ike -- and in fact, I checked last week during Fabio's show and, using LD's name, I could not pull any hits at all on the Vermont station's site. Did I miss anything?
	4:38pm randy in NC: I remember listening to The Duck back in the '80's. Condolences to his family and many friends...
	4:45pm randy in NC: Back in the days when each radio show was performance art to be actively listened to instead of a homogenized "product" to have on in the background. FMU continues to be the carrier of this torch.
	4:45pm Ismael: Cecile: I lent my copy of the HBMS hip-hop CD to my buddy, and his house was robbed, and they took only my HBMS record. good-taste thievery!
	4:46pm Laura L: I'm sorry to say I didn't know Lou, but I met that sniveling little Gordon kid a few times. Radio Freak!
	4:47pm tombom: this is brilliant.
	4:51pm G.: He even left a mention of himself and his 6 year old scatting in the Green Mountains, in a year 2000 amazon.com review of the disc they sang to -- http://tinyurl.com/cxznh3
	4:51pm Cecile: that is amazing, Ismael!
	5:00pm Joe Bacon: Irwin, thanks for sharing your memories of Lou with us!
	5:05pm Cecile: Yes, Irwin, thank you very much.
	5:06pm Laura L: Here, here--thanks, Irwin--a wonderful tribute. Thanks for putting it together. Much enjoyed and appreciated.
	5:21pm Cecile: WOW! A remix of Annie song this used to be a big staple on my disco channel on Pandora. Great song.
	5:31pm Pearly Sweets: it was just the same four bands.... melting away my brain for three hours.
	5:32pm Cecile: Irwin, you're making my head hurt. Catch you next week.
	5:32pm G.: Nope, in 2025 Andy will still be listening to 70s AOR. Like most people his age.
	5:34pm Pearly Sweets: I kinda wish the other Andy playlists were real just to listen to those shows. Any of them sound like they could have been 100% better than his show last week.
	5:34pm Parq: Wouldn't everyone agree that "My Disco Channel on Pandora" would be a good book title? ("This is your disco channel. And this is your disco channel on Pandora.")
	5:37pm Joe Bacon: Just any mention of disco makes me realize how old I am and I can remember when I stood in line at Studio 54 with my then girlfriend and my wardrobe had half a dozen neon colored leisure suits 30 years ago
	5:39pm General Bullmoose: What's good for General Bullmoose is good for everybody!
	5:39pm jan: wow Irwin, does your playing "The Country's In the Very Best of Hands" mean that you have changed your stripes?
	5:43pm G.: jawohl, so geil ( = cool)
	5:43pm Carmichael: I went to a disco once in Colorado in the '70s. Lights in the floor, thumping walls, chest hair, medallions, the whole thing. Up on a kind of opera box toward the ceiling, some kid was playing a drum kit along with the thump. Wailing away by himself for hours. Someone said it was the owner's son, adding a groove to the already groovy music. Somehow, I survived to this day. Now, I listen to Tuvan throat singing and Lipsynca. Life's a cruel mistress.
	5:44pm Laura L: Air-conditioning never sounded so gut. Toll, mensch!
	5:44pm Parq: "Wrestle poodles and win!"
	5:45pm Irwin: A/C? Izzat what they was spieling about, LL?
	5:45pm Carmichael: Irwin! Neil Innes! Tribute to Apollo C. Vermouth, the producer of "Urban Spaceman"! <holding up lighter> Light for Peace!!
	5:48pm Parq: "Today, I am two seperate gorillas!"
	5:48pm Carmichael: Although Irwin has superior knowledge and taste, I'll pass on to the uninitiated that Mr. Apollo was Paul McCartney, operating under a contract-necessitated pseudonym.
	5:50pm G.: Klima = climate Anlage = foundation Klimaanlage = a building's A/C system
	5:51pm Laura L: Yeah, Klimaanlage means air-conditioning system. A surprising subject matter!
	5:55pm Carmichael: Finishing with a bang, dude. Enjoy the happy hour.
	5:59pm Laura L: Irwin, now go and have one on your brain!
	6:02pm Carmichael: Go straight to Hell, Andy.
	9:27pm Liza and Jim Price: We mourn EL PATO from la isla de Vieques Puerto Rico. Let me tell you that the rum is smooth like buttersctoch.
	2:24am Jaclyn: Thanks so much for dedicating your show to my uncle Lou, Irwin. It means a lot to me and the rest of his family/friends. I didn't get to catch it live but am really enjoying it now :)
