9:08am Ken:

Just dropped the phone on the floor. No problemo! File didnt even stop.

9:08am Vicki:

Ken - just heard Hans Reichel has died - you might want to play some daxophone...

9:09am Ken:

What I recall them saying was "Android App? Those are for old ladies. And little girls." But I might be mis-remembering.

9:09am Marmalade kitty:

are there credits for all tracks?

9:10am Ken:

Yes, on the phone, there is a video that goes along with this - not only is every track credited but every LP/CD cover is actually animated!!

9:21am Les Paul:

9:21am Jack in Jersey:

Looking back through my bookmarked 7SD message board chats now. Surely someone mentioned your cellphone...

9:25am Dan B From Upstate:

Okay. I just downloaded the app to my android phone wihtout even turning it on. Can an iPhone do that?!? (Really, I don't know. CAN an iPhone do that?)

9:26am Brian in UK:

9:28am Ken:

That was fun! Now somebody text me!

9:28am OM:

dead air, just likes i like it

9:28am eveostay:

Once I put a Bob and Doug MacKenzie song on a cassette tape and mailed it to my favorite (commercial) radio station. They wrote back and told me the quality wasn't good enough to play it on the air.

Fast forward to now. DJs playin' their phones through the sound board. Mind blowing!

9:28am ƃuıslǝɥ uoʌ pǝɹɟ:

was it E.T.

9:28am Vicki:

you're still wanting someone to call your cell and cut you off?

9:28am Sam:

9:31am Vicki:

to be honest I have about 10 numbers for you and I had no idea which I was calling!

9:31am Ken:

OK, we're gonna hear the entire hour but that doesnt mean you cant text me hateful messages.

9:32am Marmalade kitty:

wahwahwaaaaaaaaw wa diddle diddly ded duh duh jang

9:32am Snortley:

Hey, why don't you run the iPhone dead air app?

9:33am lee:

this is so heavy, man

9:33am λɯəɹəɾ:

because it was too expensive to purchase

9:33am Sam:

Ok, I hate to shit on everyone's parade, but this is REALLY BORING TO LISTEN TO!! Ken, don't play this for an hour, play some real fucking music. Otherwise I'll put you on my enemies list.

9:33am Dr. S.:

9:35am Ken:

9:35am AbeSomething:

9:35am Sam:

Someone had to say it!

9:35am Mark:

Devo!, I got that one

9:35am Brian in UK:

No Label. No Future.
No Label. The Future.

9:35am Marmalade kitty:

doo doodly doo doo

9:36am Sam:

Actually I lost my enemies list. I can't find it anywhere. So I'm starting a new one.

9:36am sɐllɐp uı uɐΛ:

Some of us like this special hour so much it just makes us flip out

9:37am ƃuıslǝɥ uoʌ pǝɹɟ:

mercifully little straight heavy

9:37am Ken:

Wow, it's an exclusive list now Sam? I am honored. Please add me to it right away.

9:38am Sam:

This is pretty much what Nat Roe does, but they're more remixed and interesting

9:38am hamburger:

this would make for a good air-guitar showdown marathon if one were so inclined...

9:38am still b/p:

Welcome to the Jersey City Annual Thanksgiving Riffleball Tournament.

9:38am glenn:

i'm still trying to find out how to do the flippy upside down name thingy.

9:38am ƃuıslǝɥ uoʌ pǝɹɟ:

Number One with a Bullet, 'e does ya proud

9:39am Brian in UK:

Speaking of Buddy Holley. How many times does John Wayne say 'That'll Be the Day' in The Searchers?

9:39am pierre:

i've wrote down "enemies list" on my lists list.

9:39am Marmalade kitty:

roll the credits

9:39am Mark:

why the negative vibes Sam?

9:39am Sam:

You're the first on the list Mr. Freedman. Now we just have to sit back and wait for the rapture.

9:39am Vicki:

Chart Sweep

9:40am sɐllɐp uı uɐΛ:

@glenn - google knows all

9:40am Dan B From Upstate:

My enemy list is surprisingly short. Only two people.

9:40am Brian in UK:

Chart Sooty.

9:40am Mark:

you're harshing my mellow

9:40am Stevel:

That dude with the gloves can RIP!!

9:40am BDR:

This is my favorite of your many stalling tapes, btw.....

9:41am pierre:

Quick Question : Is There such thing as a 'Franz Liszt List', or simply a Franz List ?

9:41am Sam:

It's not really negative vibes, I just find this boring. I know people often confuse honesty with negativity.

9:41am λɯəɹəɾ:

i haven't heard any sonic youth yet.

9:41am eveostay:

OMG that last one was my favorite song ever!

9:41am λɯəɹəɾ:

although i guess SY wasn't known for attacking the axe either...

9:42am Marmalade kitty:

wah wah wah wah wah wah turn it up

9:42am OM:

speaking of rapture -- any news? i know mr camping didn't pan out. are we just hanging on for the Mayan end times?

9:42am ƃuıslǝɥ uoʌ pǝɹɟ:

"Chart Sweepings", now in nacho cheez flavr

9:42am Frett Butler:

Don't fret the fretfest. Feel it.

9:42am Ken:

Dont worry folks, I'm gonna play a song in it's entirety as soon as this is over.

9:43am end times app:

sucky music randomly pasted together = really sucky music, imho.

9:43am Phuzzi One:

hmmm...haven't made any enemies lately, what needs to be said to be on the list? - and this is excellent background noise for work today

9:43am Marmalade kitty:

sonic youth blur inxs

9:43am Mark:

play something from Lulu!

9:44am Sam:

There will never be a second coming, because there was never a first cumming - Mary was a virgin.

9:44am trrs:

Nice seams.

9:44am glenn:

there's a chopin liszt.

9:44am Ken:

Great idea Mark!! What should we hear from Lulu?!!!

9:45am AbeSomething:

Yeah! Lulu, that'll teach 'em!!

9:45am Mark:

Iced Honey

9:45am Sam:

Crap, the comment board has now been blocked for me (at work) because of my own stupid vulgar comment. Serves me right. Sorry.

9:45am Ken:

Yeah!!! Lulu!! Which track?! Cmon!

9:45am Marmalade kitty:

the wonderstuff It's yer money i'm after baby!

9:46am OM:

steely dan?

9:46am BSI:

Enemies are easy. I wanted to start an ENTROPY list, but that idea completely fell apart.

9:46am pierre:

@ glenn : thank you, i feel less alone.

@ Ken : btw, did you receive my mail about Lonely Kid Quentin

9:46am Vicki:

I think I'd prefer it all at once

9:46am Ken:

Sam! <NelsonVoice> HaHa! </NelsonVoice> I didnt even block you! You blocked YOURSELF!!!! hahahahahahahaha

9:47am Nick the Bard:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZsp3VMUrcs

The better Lulu bonus track...

9:47am λɯəɹəɾ:

@BSI lol

9:47am sporkbob:

the excerpt that comes last better blow my effing mind, Ken

9:47am jill:

mash-ups signal the end of the world

9:47am glenn:

start a procrastination list, bsi. but it can wait 'til tomorrow.

9:47am Sam:

I can still post comments but I can't read them. It's like giving a speech when your deaf.

9:47am Dan B From Upstate:

If you're gonna play Lulu, play one of the tracks you consider bad. You know... so we can get some perspective,.

9:47am λɯəɹəɾ:

Incoceivable!

9:48am paul:

my favorite songs on lulu all happen to be the ones with cursing, i think

9:48am AbeSomething:

Pumping Blood!! The one where Lou "waggles his ass like a prostitute dog!!"

9:48am weiterso:

this is quick
youtube.com/watch?v=ny8tMa3EpC8&feature=related

9:49am Jeffersonic/Jervix:

Geez, I think I'd estimate my recognition factor here at about 70% or so. I'm curious as to where you think yours falls, Ken. Are you anywhere around 90% or beyond?

9:49am Ken:

Abe, you had me at Ass Prostitute!

9:49am Marmalade kitty:

Can I put you on hold sir..do you mind holding..?

9:49am 88 tears:

Chopin Liszt? You'd better change your "add etude," mister.

9:50am Ken:

I'd say I'm also around the 70% mark Jeffersonic. I recognize most of the others but no way could I name them.

9:50am dc pat:

yeah, I think 70% is about right for me.

9:50am ƃuıslǝɥ uoʌ pǝɹɟ:

@jill no it's just more and more of the chronically postmodern media pastiche that substitutes for authenticity

9:50am Vivian:

Folks, I need to upgrade my phone-which is better iphone 3g or iphone 4?

9:51am paul:

so many of these songs sound way better in 2 second bursts than having to sit through the entire songs again

9:52am Dave:

I'd like to see this performed live

9:52am ƃuıslǝɥ uoʌ pǝɹɟ:

@dave seconded!

9:53am ChrisB.:

Riff-raff.

9:54am glenn:

where's the chris spedding guitar jamboree in all this?

9:54am sɐllɐp uı uɐΛ:

Has there been an Eminence Front sighting in this yet?

9:54am λɯəɹəɾ:

i HATE my iphone 3g. i STRONGLY urge you not to get a iphone 3g. takes 5 -10 seconds to get the camera warmed up to take a picture. 15 seconds to view my pictures. iphone 4 or droid, if you're a little girl or old lady.

9:54am still b/p:

Is there a 60-minute Cowbell Convulsion or Moog Maul after the Axe Attack?

9:54am OM:

would I show my youth if I said I'm at ~25-30% recognition? :/

9:54am earwax:

Wait a minute. You mean this isn't just one guy playing this?

9:55am pierre:

(say what you want but, this guy - with the helmet - is skilled)

9:55am λɯəɹəɾ:

amazon wireless is selling phones for 1 penny this week for new contract plans

9:55am dc pat:

actually I'm more at 60%. Did a random test of 10 in a row.

9:55am pierre:

my favourite G. Rafferty song… AAAAaaaah stay, please STAY !!

9:55am mark:

I think I've heard this before???

9:56am Dave B:

@Dave/Fred vH/Ken - I'm uploading that Z medley I spoke of earlier. Its about 22 minutes long, performed live at the Shank in Milwaukee back in '95

Should be ready in about 10 minutes.

Line up
Ahmet Zappa-V, Dweezil Zappa-G, Mike Keneally-G, Bryan Bellar-B, Joe Travers-D

9:56am ƃuıslǝɥ uoʌ pǝɹɟ:

is there gonna be right smack dab in the middle a ten-minute hairball from frampton comes alive ?

9:56am some other guy:

I think that if KDAD played this 24-7, well, I would be happy that existed.

9:58am Dave B:

I have to do the upload remotely from home cause the firewall goons at work block access to DropBox...

9:58am david from ks:

,,,aahhh hey i like that one n that one n that ah im f**kin stuck

9:59am glenn:

and no peter green or roy buchanan or james burton or hank marvin or danny gatton or richard thompson either. jeeeez.

9:59am λɯəɹəɾ:

59 minutes!

9:59am yayson:

keep em rippin' ken

9:59am sporkbob:

Somebody give me a cigarette.

9:59am chronically impatient:

this makes we want to stick my head in the oven and roast it like a Thanksgiving turkey!

9:59am Marmalade kitty:

the clash beastie boys!!! undertones the cure the cult guns and roses frank zappa lou reed dire straits prince primal scream talking heads...

10:00am AbeSomething:

I'm so happy that was my 9 o'clock hour!

10:00am Dan B From Upstate:

Oh, man. That was so awesome, it made me late for break.

10:00am sɐllɐp uı uɐΛ:

Naming them all is the 2nd hour

10:01am moose:

10:01am don:

jump in the fire

10:01am Vicki:

please spend the next hour saying everything we heard, Stooges style

10:01am Vivian:

Thanks λɯəɹəɾ! Sadly, iphones not included.

10:01am Stevel:

[brains flowing out of ears, dripping onto floor.]

10:02am Vicki:

ha ha oh good, you are

10:02am Marmalade kitty:

no beastie boys? :(

10:03am Gene Autry:

But do you recall...
the most famous
axe lick of all..?

10:03am dc pat:

I'll help with identification: I heard the Witch by the Sonics. There, I've done my part.

10:03am Johnny B Goode:

I suppose Ken could have played the album version of "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" instead. On second thought, maybe not such a bad idea.

Is that 70% recognition or identification?

I think the guy in the helmet is Robert Fripp .. oh, no wait, he's obviously having more fun than Fripp ever has.

Ken, have you got anything without guitars or drums ... or riffs?

I think this back announcement is going to take a lot more than an hour.

10:03am Jeffersonic/Jervix:

Wow! I couldn't leave the computer until you stopped it! What the...! Back announce! Yikes! AAAIIIgh! Kenny G has possessed Ken!

10:04am dale:

heard me a frank black riff.

10:04am sɐllɐp uı uɐΛ:

I'm gonna go roast a turkey for tomorrow and be back in time for the first full song

10:04am Blurry:

INSANE!!! total flashback. WFMU is just wonderful. Keep it together man

10:04am Vicki:

it might be helpful to consult with wikipedia for more information

10:04am OM:

i love ken so much right now

10:05am Jeffersonic/Jervix:

Free career counseling for the 90 percenters?

10:05am Dan B From Upstate:

I want this prize more than I've wanted anything in the world.

10:05am OM:

oh god ken take listener calls, this will be awesome

10:06am Skirkie:

I assume by "Thunderdome" you mean "soccer stadium in Harrison"

10:07am dale:

kenny g played something a couple years ago that was some retarded people being led in song at the holidays. i desperately need a copy - any one know what it was called?

10:08am some other guy:

The Children of the Inpatient Music Therapy Program, University of Michigan’s Children’s Psychiatric Hospital

10:08am paul:

this makes me want to listen to the Jack Mudurian album again

10:09am chronically impatient:

my god ken... i give thanks for nothing. you've skipped straight past irony and leapt straight to contempt. why do you hate us so?

10:09am AbeSomething:

There it is!

10:10am Stevel:

Dog prostitute for the WIN!!!!

10:10am Vicki:

There's also The Social Skill Centre, which I've played on the People Like Us & Ergo Phizmiz Xmas Special of DO or DIY - it's on the fmu blog

10:10am dale:

much gratitude other guy....

10:10am Dave B:

As promised.

10:10am paul:

it's "dark prostitute"

10:11am glenn:

why would dogs need prostitutes? they pretty much got the whole free love thing down to a science.

10:11am dale:

i just remember someone yelling out 'PUNKIN PIE!!'

10:11am stefan:

oh man, this Lou Reed Metallica stuff is ridiculous. Totally cracking me up. Thanks for playing, I hadn't heard it yet.

10:11am OM:

ken hates all of us and it is fantastic.

10:11am Vicki:

10:12am lee:

10:13am Big Time Producer:

10:13am pierre:

10:19am eveostay:

10:19am Sam:

I can read the comment board again now.

10:19am Dan B from Upstate:

I genuinely love this song.

10:20am Sam:

This is reminiscent of "I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves and it goes something like this..." (repeat)

10:20am OM:

Ken actually despises his listeners.

10:21am OM:

... but it makes us love him more?

10:21am Sam:

Haters be hatin

10:22am ɟɹǝp ʌou ɥǝlsıuƃ:

10:22am Carmichael:

Good morning Kenneth and fellow despised listeners.

10:22am pierre:

Hatters be hattin.

10:24am Sam:

Marine warning? You mean a bunch of macho assholes in uniform with M16s are going to shoot their way into our schools and execute civilians and topple our government?

10:28am Maria D:

NO!!! Please, Ken. Stop it!

10:29am pierre:

It is actually quite easy to imagine that this is the only song in th world.
It is META djing
META radio

10:29am OM:

10:29am Sam:

You're going to play it again next, aren't you.

10:30am Marmalade kitty:

10:31am Sam:

Thanks for reading the lyrics! I was wondering what they were.

10:31am Dan B From Upstate:

10:32am Dave B:

It was better than Cats. I want to hear it again and again!

10:32am Marmalade kitty:

10:33am Carmichael:

How about Seals & Crofts, to ease us into this whole rock thing?

10:33am eveostay:

10:33am Sam:

I haven't rocked this hard since Rocktober.

10:34am Carmichael:

BTW, this is the ONLY pink floyd. Don't ever forget it. EVER.

10:34am Greaves & Blegvad:

We are both truly sorry and will never do it again.
We are both truly sorry and will never do it again.
We are both truly sorry and will never do it again.
Are we ready to rock yet?

10:35am Sam:

Imagine if Ken gets alzheimers. He might really play the same song over and over and not even realize it. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Now that's irony.

10:36am Vicki:

Not sure which is the best Floyd album but it's worthy of discussion

Greaves & Blegvad again - now we're rocking.

You and they have made it simple, to last my whole life long. Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear.

10:55am TonguesTooShortToFelchWithGod:

This show is a Robert Fripp tape loop.

10:55am pierre:

"…against your will…"
that's an interesting concept.

And have everyone noticed that "will" and "ill" goes well together, it sound the same.

10:59am lee:

When you said "no matter how hard you rock, there's always a guy who rocks just a little bit harder", it mad me very very sad. So sad.

10:59am Dave B:

@dale - why not all three at once?

http://uploads.neatorama.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/cherpumple-500x375.jpg

11:00am Carmichael:

I like to think I'm the rockingest of the rockers.

11:00am Dave B:

this song is actually growing on me, but what it really could use is some vuvuzela.

11:00am Detroit Mac:

11:01am dale:

my mother always said 'i'll have a sliver of each.' that is quite a cake, dave b....did you bake it?

11:01am lee:

Just once, I'd like to rock the hardest. Is this too much to ask?

11:01am Dan B From Upstate:

Man, I love this song. If I could unplug my headphones and play an episode of Ken's show for my co-workers, it would be this episode.

11:01am Carmichael:

Since this is the only song, it's by default my favorite.

11:01am AbeSomething:

I was hoping to hear this Greaves & Greaves rendition of "Only Song" this morning! Thanks, Ken!

11:01am The Cowsills:

Anybody wanna hear the Radio Soulwax again?

11:01am Staples:

Let's Do It Again.

11:02am OM:

ok, it's 11:00, do the station ID and let Axe Attack carry us out.

11:02am Jeffersonic/Jervix:

Every time I hear "The Only Song" I immediately superimpose Flipper's "Brainwash" over the top.

11:02am White Boy:

okay!

11:02am Dave B:

The Only Song would make a great hallmark anti-holiday singing card...

11:02am TonguesTooShortToFelchWithGod:

11:02am λɯəɹəɾ:

I don't believe the station is licensed to rock that hard two times in one morning.

11:03am Vicki:

There's another version of The Only Song, who knew? "Unearthed includes "The Only Song," which would later be issued in a more powerful (longer and more cynical) form on Hangman's Hill."

11:03am ɟɹǝp ʌou ɥǝlsıuƃ:

11:03am Matterhorn:

11:04am Lizardner Dave:

Looking forward to the John Greaves Tiny Desk Concert.

11:04am lee:

what we need a license to rock hard now? live free or rock hard

11:04am Carmichael:

Wait a minute, there's actually MORE than the only song? Ken, you really need to explain this situation in detail.

11:04am Jeffersonic/Jervix:

Get down! Get Down Tonight!

11:05am eveostay:

Suddenly, Ken, your whole life makes sense with this song playing.

11:05am SOPA:

Sorry, your rocking is infringing. Buh-bye!

11:06am λɯəɹəɾ:

there will always be another station that can rock harder

11:06am Carmichael:

Point at floor. Point at ceiling. Repeat until song is over.

11:06am Tristram in Brooklyn:

11:15am Carmichael:

This song should put to rest any doubts about Ken's ability to rock at will.

11:16am Mark:

it does look like the drummer is thinking about getting some

11:16am TonguesTooShortToFelchWithGod:

Wonder if anyone does Tico tico on a Jew's harp?

11:27am still b/p:

The drummer is Elisha Cook, and his frame of mind has been correctly read here. This, from an IMDb contributed bio, is about that scene :
"...he enacts a drum-solo piece that is of such crescendo, and played with such innuendo, as to suggest - glaringly - nothing except his own fantasized sexual journey from cymbal foreplay through bass-drum climax."

11:27am Dan B From Upstate:

Freedom costs a buck-oh-five.

11:27am Sam:

Only Ken can both suck and rock simultaneously

11:28am Peter K.:

Could you please play "The Only Song" by Peter Blegvad and John Greaves? I haven't heard it in a while.
