WFMU: Put The Needle On The Record with Billy Jam: Playlist from February 18, 2011

Listener comments!
	9:02am Billy Jam: This is a very special event in celebration of the greatness that was (and hopefully will soon again be) KUSF San Francisco radio on the FM dial. The station was kicked off the air on Jan 18th during DJ Schmeejay's show so I thought it only fitting that DJ Schmeejay should begin today's radio broadcast by picking up from where he was so rudely interrupted by the plug pullers at the 90.3FM transmitter during his last radio show.
	9:13am Billy Jam: Live from Amoeba Music San Francisco noon to 3pm (local Cali time) which is 3pm to 6pm back in NJ. This radio show is broadcasting not only on WFMU but also is being carried live by radio stations all across the country in an unprecedented show of solidarity for the unacceptable treatment of KUSF radio. Joining WFMU today in broadcasting are WITC Cazenovia, NY 88.9FM, KXLU Los Angeles 88.9FM, KFJC Los Altos Hills 89.7FM, KDVS Davis 90.3FM, KZSU Stanford 90.1FM, WXYC Chapel Hill NC 89.3FM, WREK Atlanta GA 91.1FM, WCBN Ann Arbor Michigan 88.3FM, KVRX Austin TX 91.7FM, KALX Berkeley 90.7FM, & KRFP Moscow Idaho (Free Radio Moscow) 92.5FM. Each of these FM stations will also live stream the broadcast on their respective websites - as will kusfarchives dot com. There will also be a live video stream today c/o Yowie Dot Com. KUSF DJs Irwin, DJ Schmeejay, Harry D, Jantine B, Carolyn, and Stereo Steve will spin half hour music sets (give or take a few minutes depending on mic breaks) while myself and WFMU's Gaylord Fields (coincidentally out in the Bay Area this week) will host the event - doing the legal IDs at top of each hour. Thanks for tuning in and supporting the fight to SAVE KUSF. If you are in the Bay Area git yer ass over here to Amoeba Music on Haight Street in San Francisco up until 3pm local CA time. Thank-you!
	10:38am Misty Briggs: as an ex commercial FM DJ and promotions director of many years (and a college DJ for one year) I have to say that this is one of the most awesome things that I have ever seen in radio! The solidarity is unprecedented and all of us here in Chapel Hill, NC have got your back!! Thanks for all that you do KUSF! We need more stations just like you... not less!! Much Respect and Appreciation, Misty Dawn owner/founder No More Fake Labels www.nomorefakelabels.com

	4:16pm Madi Horstman: Oh and thanks to Billy Jam and Haqppy Birthday to my hero Ken.
	4:17pm Andy S.: That may be Hortense Ellis but this song is not "What Do I Have to Do to Prove My Love To You." It's "Mojo Hannah," and it was also recorded by Marvin Gaye on his very first live LP; and by Tami Lynn, in a studio version produced by Jerry Wexler. If I'm correct, somebody might want to correct the playlist entry.
	4:19pm Johnny Savage: Yo Billy ... KUSF would not have gone down had you not left the Bay Area ;-) Keep up the great radio.
	4:19pm Billy Jam: hey Andy and all else - due to the logistics here (running up and down a filght of stairs to get to playlist computer - and reading handwriting ) this playlist is imperfect now - but will update correctly later by time of archives -promise
	4:20pm Cecile: CHICKEN STRUT. All right.
	4:22pm Andy S.: Oops! Please disregard my previous post, which resulted from a misreading of the playlist. Sorry...
	4:27pm djspidermanZ: long live freeform. great choons. will Ken get balloons at the ready for his snowboard antics?
	4:32pm pete accident: chin chin!
	4:33pm Brian Turner (WFMU): Bay area radio means mucho mucho. Special shout out to the late great Ken Hamilton/Spiderman from KFJC who used to spend great times on the phone (yes the phone) yakking up records he loved to me....and hey to Irwin, Jantine, Carolyn n everyone. Sounds great out there....
	4:34pm Regina: The listeners around the country may not know that Billy Jam publishes a playlist for his program. Please announce.
	4:37pm Richard from Venezuela: I like the start of dj carolyn's set.
	4:39pm Cheri Pi: I can feel the excitement through the airwaves! Kudos to everyone involved in the KUSF in Exhile show!
	4:43pm Laurie: Listening on the radio via WXYC in Chapel Hill!
	4:44pm Cheri Pi: This is my Swell maps' jam!

	4:55pm PMD: Go go! (and thanks for the t-shirt guys)
	4:56pm perrin: oops, reggae show in 1986 was KFJC? Spliff Scanking and richard ranking? if memory serves. KUSF was punk, I remember that now...

	5:13pm jeff-m: better now?
	5:13pm PMD: Sound is MUCH better
	5:16pm efd: yeah, huge improvement!
	5:17pm efd: Not that I thought it was sounding bad before... but now it sounds better Of course, it may just be the Jimmie Walker.
	5:17pm jeff-m: weird, I didn't do anything at the board here... levels all same as before.
	5:17pm frenchee: yes, the channel hop I mentioned was both of them (?) kicking in. Nice.
	5:17pm Marmalade kitty: SOLIDARITY!!
	5:22pm Marmalade kitty: No messing, this is amazing what all of you are doing in a show of unbeliavabe support for the great unfortunate KUSF, Fight The Power!!
	5:23pm Cecile: YES
	5:24pm efd: Jeff, not sure how to describe it but there was a noticeable boost in the levels as well as a shift in the presence(?) of the audio on the 128k mp3 stream, around 5:10 or so. Maybe someone tweaked something out in SF.
	5:24pm Cecile: I don't care if Janet sold a million records, this and Control were the JAM.

Thanks to the KUSF DJs in Exile who spun sets: DJ Schmeejay, Irwin, Harry D, Jantine B, Carolyn, and Stereo Steve. Also thanks to Steve The Creep who was on the mic giving away tix and all the other KUSF DJs that came thru including Germ, Tomas, and David Bassin. Thanks to Brad Stark and Kenya Lewis and all the other tireless Save KUSF folks working quietly behind the scenes. Thanks to Erica and the guys from Yowie.com for driving all night up from LA to do a video stream of the event. Thanks to my WFMU co-host Gaylord Fields. A special thank-you Amoeba Music San Francisco for not only hosting the event but getting behind it 100% in every way including doing a whole round of pre-publicity. Special mention to Karen Pearson, Ilene Berg, Tarin (who did sound for show), Kaitlin (photos), & Tim Cohen (tech advice).Thanks to WFMU's Jeff Mullan for engineering back in the WFMU NJ studios and to WFMU's Scott Williams for tech support, Brian Turner & Liz Berg for their support and everyone else at WFMU. Thanks also to every entity that publicized, promoted, and got word out on the event including Spinning Indie, Bay Citizen, SF Weekly, CMJ, Pitchfork, New York Daily News, and KTVU TV. But mostly THANK-YOU to YOU the radio listener who tune in, appreciate, and support left of the dial stations like KUSF. It was a fun broadcast. For me it was the final in a three part Bay Area series of WFMU remotes. Next week (Feb 25th) I will be back in the WFMU studios same time (3pm-6pm EST = noon - 3pm PST) with a show that will include a 1988 Miami Bass set and an interview with Yukmouth of the Luniz fame. - peace- Billy Jam
	10:23pm βrian: Yo, we need you to make some noise for Wisconsin. It's not about unions per se. It's about autocracy and the royal priviledge of delegating wealth to those who don't need it and can't responsibly manage it.
	12:13am porkchop: just listened to the archives.......LOVE this manifestation and alignment of support for KUSF--SOOOOO want KUSF back. Thank you Mr. Jam for making it happen live and direct through WFMU. peace

Listener comments!
	9:02am Billy Jam: This is a very special event in celebration of the greatness that was (and hopefully will soon again be) KUSF San Francisco radio on the FM dial. The station was kicked off the air on Jan 18th during DJ Schmeejay's show so I thought it only fitting that DJ Schmeejay should begin today's radio broadcast by picking up from where he was so rudely interrupted by the plug pullers at the 90.3FM transmitter during his last radio show.
	9:13am Billy Jam: Live from Amoeba Music San Francisco noon to 3pm (local Cali time) which is 3pm to 6pm back in NJ. This radio show is broadcasting not only on WFMU but also is being carried live by radio stations all across the country in an unprecedented show of solidarity for the unacceptable treatment of KUSF radio. Joining WFMU today in broadcasting are WITC Cazenovia, NY 88.9FM, KXLU Los Angeles 88.9FM, KFJC Los Altos Hills 89.7FM, KDVS Davis 90.3FM, KZSU Stanford 90.1FM, WXYC Chapel Hill NC 89.3FM, WREK Atlanta GA 91.1FM, WCBN Ann Arbor Michigan 88.3FM, KVRX Austin TX 91.7FM, KALX Berkeley 90.7FM, & KRFP Moscow Idaho (Free Radio Moscow) 92.5FM. Each of these FM stations will also live stream the broadcast on their respective websites - as will kusfarchives dot com. There will also be a live video stream today c/o Yowie Dot Com. KUSF DJs Irwin, DJ Schmeejay, Harry D, Jantine B, Carolyn, and Stereo Steve will spin half hour music sets (give or take a few minutes depending on mic breaks) while myself and WFMU's Gaylord Fields (coincidentally out in the Bay Area this week) will host the event - doing the legal IDs at top of each hour. Thanks for tuning in and supporting the fight to SAVE KUSF. If you are in the Bay Area git yer ass over here to Amoeba Music on Haight Street in San Francisco up until 3pm local CA time. Thank-you!
	10:38am Misty Briggs: as an ex commercial FM DJ and promotions director of many years (and a college DJ for one year) I have to say that this is one of the most awesome things that I have ever seen in radio!

Much Respect and Appreciation, Misty Dawn owner/founder No More Fake Labels www.nomorefakelabels.com

It's "Mojo Hannah," and it was also recorded by Marvin Gaye on his very first live LP; and by Tami Lynn, in a studio version produced by Jerry Wexler. If I'm correct, somebody might want to correct the playlist entry.
	4:19pm Johnny Savage: Yo Billy ... KUSF would not have gone down had you not left the Bay Area ;-) Keep up the great radio.
	4:19pm Billy Jam: hey Andy and all else - due to the logistics here (running up and down a filght of stairs to get to playlist computer - and reading handwriting ) this playlist is imperfect now - but will update correctly later by time of archives -promise
	4:20pm Cecile: CHICKEN STRUT. All right.
	4:22pm Andy S.: Oops! Please disregard my previous post, which resulted from a misreading of the playlist. Sorry...

Thanks to the KUSF DJs in Exile who spun sets: DJ Schmeejay, Irwin, Harry D, Jantine B, Carolyn, and Stereo Steve. Also thanks to Steve The Creep who was on the mic giving away tix and all the other KUSF DJs that came thru including Germ, Tomas, and David Bassin. Thanks to Brad Stark and Kenya Lewis and all the other tireless Save KUSF folks working quietly behind the scenes. Thanks to Erica and the guys from Yowie.com for driving all night up from LA to do a video stream of the event. Thanks to my WFMU co-host Gaylord Fields. A special thank-you Amoeba Music San Francisco for not only hosting the event but getting behind it 100% in every way including doing a whole round of pre-publicity. Special mention to Karen Pearson, Ilene Berg, Tarin (who did sound for show), Kaitlin (photos), & Tim Cohen (tech advice).Thanks to WFMU's Jeff Mullan for engineering back in the WFMU NJ studios and to WFMU's Scott Williams for tech support, Brian Turner & Liz Berg for their support and everyone else at WFMU. Thanks also to every entity that publicized, promoted, and got word out on the event including Spinning Indie, Bay Citizen, SF Weekly, CMJ, Pitchfork, New York Daily News, and KTVU TV.

	10:23pm βrian: Yo, we need you to make some noise for Wisconsin. It's not about unions per se. It's about autocracy and the royal priviledge of delegating wealth to those who don't need it and can't responsibly manage it.
	12:13am porkchop: just listened to the archives.......LOVE this manifestation and alignment of support for KUSF--SOOOOO want KUSF back. Thank you Mr. Jam for making it happen live and direct through WFMU. peace
