	9:36am Joe McG: @Curious Tom: Meant to check them out and forgot, Tom, sorry. I'll try to remember next time!
	👻 9:37am YETI BOB: This Dry Cleaning sounds like it could have been released by Rough Trade in 1982 or so. (That's not a bad thing)
	9:37am Spaceballs the Flame Thrower!: hi
	9:38am morphe': Last stanza:" Never has one outfit been designed, to Send so many messages Earrings to empower women Bag that helps charity, jeans made in Wales Cruelty free coat"
	9:38am fred: @morphe': QB indeed, that question might not go over well on the drummer stream, with the fearless leader living in Pittsburgh
	9:39am Joe McG: @morphe: Given recent events, they may have to write another verse!
	9:39am Marc Francis: "The weather is shite!"

	👻 9:45am tadpoles: Kiwi Jr. sound very Flying Nun Joe.
	9:46am Joe McG: @tadpoles: You're right, that song does! Maybe that's why I like it. A few of the other songs are quite Pavement-like.
	9:48am Spaceballs the Flame Thrower!: i like driving around Chicago at night in Febuary when the roads are coated with salt from all the hell snow. And yes, its spelled Febuary.
	9:48am chresti - pre work coffee stop LA: Good morning Joe and noise!
	👻 9:48am Brian in UK: Hey Joe.
	9:48am steveo: there's that car crash again!
	9:49am SSS: "And what is this rue?"
	👻 9:50am tadpoles: Wow Joe and the Gonks sound like a cross between early Television Personalities and the Young Marble Giants. Love this set.
	9:52am thormagma: YES..... the lords have returned
	9:54am Joe McG: Can anyone tell me what meter this is in?
	9:54am steveo: nice nice horse horse lords lords
	9:55am the leaders running: Great set! This combination of caffeine and Surface Noise is making me very very perfect
	9:55am Dave In St Albans UK: Hi Joe. This is soooooo good!
	9:55am steveo: i'm not sure all the instruments are using the same time signature
	9:56am JakeGould: Good morning, Joe!
	9:56am thormagma: it just went from a 6/4 feel to a waltz to 5/4. LOL
	👻 9:57am Ken From Hyde Park: 17/53rds, I'm guessing.
	9:57am thormagma: whatever polyrhythm was happening in the beginning was giving me visions.
	9:57am Phil in Charlotte: Diggin’ this track!
	9:57am Joe McG: @Ken: Ha ha ha!
	9:58am steveo: from the bandcamp "Their music is unabashedly fun, and experiencing it in a live context is an experience of collective ecstasy, each body moving to its own notion of what the beat may be"
	👻 10:00am YETI BOB: i saw (well, heard) Horse Lords play in a basement one time, there were no lights and it was almost completely dark!
	10:00am steveo: wishlisted that, then opened a new bandcamp account to wishlist it again
	10:00am Mike Wolf: Joe was that a legitimate diabolical cackle from you there?
	10:00am Handy Haversack: This set is cooking, Joe!
	10:01am Joe McG: @Mike: I guess my inner demon leapt out!
	10:01am SPaceballs the Flame Thrower!: I'm a little dizzy from that last song. and i love this beat. :) Just a great collection of records. I'd switch from coffee to weed now if I wasn't in a work meeting.
	10:02am ?: BECK! Blackhole!
	10:03am Brendan: Good Ukrainian topical reference song
	👻 10:04am YETI BOB: how about some 75 dollar bill? that would go nicely
	10:04am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning
	10:05am Hubig Pie: Suddenly, it's Tuesday morning
	10:05am ?: or A Hawk and a hacksaw
	10:06am Joe McG: @Handy: Glad you're enjoying!
	10:08am fred: @YETI BOB: I still say Joe should get 75 dollar bill to do a set around marathon time. Unless the DJ premium pledge level goes up this year
	10:09am Joe McG: @fred: Wish I could! We can't really do live guests once the marathon starts since the live room becomes the phone room.
	👻 10:10am Brian in UK: Joe, good to see the new releases are getting a good run out.
	10:11am Joe McG: @Brian: I'm frontloading since the show after 10:30 will be me oldies. :)
	10:14am fred: @Joe: Do the set before the marathon then, and ask them to do cheesy appeals to broadcast during the marathon
	👻 10:15am Ken From Hyde Park: Is there room on the Marathon Premium Planning Room blackboard for "What Meter Is This?" I'll bet Creamo Coyl would jump on that!
	10:17am βrian: It's a gray day on the isthmus. Not typical, really, so this music helps.
	👻 10:17am TristaC.LadyCaveBrat: I love this Alex Zoumbas
	10:18am Brendan: Pretty good fiddle. Enough to win a shiny fiddle made of gold anyway.
	10:19am The Oscar: One time at the record store I worked at we got a HUGE collection of Armenian 78s. One of the records was by Alexis Zoumbas (who's obviously Greek, but recorded some in Armenia). It wound up selling to Zoumbas' biographer, who was compiling tracks and had never come across this one. I can't recall the piece, but there's a possibility it wound up on this comp!
	10:19am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe & all!
	10:19am fred: @Ken From Hyde Park: Gaylord did a premium like that years ago, called "The Meter Is Running"
	10:20am Brendan: Not the western type of fiddle but more interesting . Perhaps heard in the presence of a gypsy . And a werewolf maybe.
	10:20am Joe McG: @Trista: I love this album! @Oscar: Wow, cool story! There's a comp that came out right before this one, a couple of years ago. Maybe that one. @Greg: Hey, Greg! Glad you got my mailer. :)
	10:21am Krys O.: Yes, this is lovely to hear again.
	10:21am The Oscar: @Joe Could be-- this probably would've been 2015-2016, so that sounds right.
	👻 10:21am Brian in UK: Mississippi knows its stuff.
	10:22am The Oscar: The whole collection was pretty incredible, but as the store's eBay technician they were HELL to transcribe and research...
	10:22am Brendan: Nice to see Smokey still has the pipes . He sang a line or two last night at the Grammies
	10:22am steveo: @fred found the track list for Gaylord's premium www.moorestevie.com...
	👻 10:23am Ken From Hyde Park: Gaylord smart!
	10:24am David (in London): Hey Brian. Did you get yesterday's painting done?
	👻 10:26am Brian in UK: David, yes thanks. It was a beautiful morning today but has quickly spoiled itself. Is the recording moving forward?
	10:28am ChrisB.: I'm getting a real Pre Fab Sprout vibe here.
	10:28am Joe McG: @ChrisB: You know me and Prefab Sprout!
	10:29am mariano: Aww yeah! It's Mardi Gras season here in NOLA, and this music is everywhere - well, even more so than usual, that is :)
	10:29am Aphidface: Great groove show Joe
	10:30am steveo: i once heard a live brass band playing toxic by britney spears and it was very good
	10:31am Joe McG: Whoops, Single File will be a bit late today since "Get Up" snuck up on me!
	10:31am editor_b: Also checking in from NOLA. (Hola Mariano) This Hot 8 track gets a lot of love from me but honestly I don't remember these vocals!?!
	10:31am Hubig Pie: Do what ya wanna not what ya oughta
	10:32am Joe McG: Happy to see Nawleans in the house!
	10:32am Brian St Cyr: We LOVE the Hot 8 here in New Orleans ...Mardi Hras 2020!
	10:33am mariano: @steveo: The second-line and marching bands here have a knack for transforming pop songs. "Livin' on a Prayer" is another favorite for the marching bands. Hot 8 has some other good ones: "Love Will Tear Us Apart" and "Poppa Was a Rolling Stone", etc. Hiya @editor_b, Brian St Cyr, and Hubig Pie! Didn't realize there were so many of us here today :)
	10:33am Joe McG: Don't know when or on who's show, but I hear a rumor that the Hot 8 might be a live guest here at FMU in the near future. Keep tuned in!
	10:35am steveo: @mariano, love it
	10:35am fred: @Mariano: A second-line take on Joy Division? I need to hear that!
	10:35am steveo: you know that tuba player has lungs of steel
	10:36am Brian St Cyr: AFTER Mardi Gras!!!lol
	10:36am Hubig Pie: I'm from the 9 I don't mind dyin'
	10:37am mariano: @fred: Your wish is my command! www.youtube.com... @Joe - wow, that's awesome about Hot 8. I've been pestering DJs on other shows (Nate K, Fine Wine) to get FMU to send DJs down here to cover Carnival.
	10:39am Brian St Cyr: we are right off St Claude here in the Ninth ward
	10:39am Handy Haversack: @mariano, it's not quite the same, but I think you'd have dug this if you were there: northbrooklynboatclub.org...
	10:40am Mister Dobalina: Bongo Joe label ! How great!!!
	10:42am mariano: @Brian: Burgundy & Elysian here. @Handy: That looks great! I lived in Brooklyn for a long time, loved going to the Mermaid Parade, and it seems like brass bands started catching on there.
	10:43am fred: @mariano: thanks!
	10:44am Handy Haversack: @mariano, I have a few friends in some of the local anarchist marching bands. Even had one do a second line for the funeral of a friend ... jeez, 12 years ago now.
	10:45am Billi Eyelash: Hey Joe, Your show adds color to my black and white world.
	10:46am Joe McG: @Billi: Thanks, Billi! :)
	10:47am βrian: Betty's sister was Ilene.
	10:47am mariano: @Handy - I've seen one or two of the NY marching bands, didn't realize there was a political side to them, but makes sense and it's good to know.
	👻 10:48am TristaC.LadyCaveBrat: Brian Brain! This is great!!
	10:48am John from Florham park: Hello fellow surface noise listeners
	10:52am John from Florham park: @Joe it is such a pleasure hearing deep dives into groups like the yardbirds
	10:53am Joe McG: @John: Thanks, John! Sometimes it's fun to play the B-sides instead of the hits.
	10:53am Brendan: Btw The Yardbirds had a tune Little Soldier Boy (unrelated)
	10:54am Joe McG: @Brendan: Wish I had THAT segueway!
	10:55am John from Florham park: @Joe lot of times b sides are a lot better then the so called hits
	10:58am 23 Wolves: Man, I LOVE Terry Jacks! And Susan too!!!
	10:58am pantz: Getting a real David Cassidy vibe from Terry
	10:58am Hubig Pie: Lyrics by Rod McKuen
	10:58am Spaceballs the Flame Thrower!: Was that a English translation of Ne Me Se Que Pa - Nina Simone's cover?
	11:00am Joe McG: @Spaceballs: Yes, it's Jacques Brel.
	11:00am Hubig Pie: Suddenly I'm getting the backdoor VIP treatment for a front row seat to watch Henny Youngman
	11:00am fred: @Spaceballs: do you mean "Ne me quitte pas"?
	11:01am PKNY: I remember KISS covered this Crystals song on "Love Gun", always thought it was a weird choice for them.
	11:01am John from Florham park: terry jacks song besides seasons in the sun, impressive joe thanks
	👻 11:01am tadpoles: My copy's just about as scratchy Joe. Excellent surface noise.
	11:05am John from Florham park: @PKNY never knew kiss did a crystals song, I am impressed with musical knowledge of the people on the accu list, I am among music geeks and I love it
	11:05am mariano: @Hubig: Haha! Nothing but VIP treatment for union delegates, eh?
	11:06am The Oscar: Obligatory reminder that Brel's original lyrics to "Seasons in the Sun" are actually hilariously mean and sarcastic, and are worth comparing to Terry's: genius.com...
	11:08am Brendan: We can forgive Terry for Seasons in the Sun because of the B -side , Put the Bone In. Oh wait no ... that was worse...
	11:09am Earth Walker: Hey Joe. Can you tell me what’s the background music
	11:09am Spaceballs the Flame Thrower!: Shrunken Planet is awesome
	11:10am the leaders running: I used to drink a lot of Wild Irish Rose when I lived in Chicago
	11:11am paul: How bout some Mitchum Calypso?
	11:11am Brendan: Good movie - i think his son is in that one
	11:11am The Oscar: I really wish Mitchum did one of these for Night of the Hunter.
	11:12am paul: His song played his younger brother.
	11:12am paul: Son
	11:13am Bill W: Saw Thunder Road very long ago... Not quite as much fun as the song.
	11:13am Rich in Washington: CHIL-dren! Ooooh CHIL-dren! ♫ ♬
	👻 11:13am tim from champaign (now washington): Hi Joe and everyone! Great Mitchum song. I wonder if he was on the wacky tobaccy when he recorded Ballad of Thunder Road.
	11:14am fred: I think I have that Mitchum track on a DJ premium...
	11:14am mariano: Oh man, that Mitchum calypso album cover is one of my favorites of all time. I learned from my mom that my grandfather and two of his friends briefly owned a nightclub in the 50s, and that on opening night they dressed in tiki-drag (coconut bras, grass skirts) and lip-synced some Mitchum calypso.
	11:15am mariano: (Yeah, I know, mixing up Hawaiian and Caribbean, but it was the 50s and everyone was drunk.)
	11:15am melinda: I like Jimmy Driftwood.
	11:15am Boomer: Chattanooga,Tennessee here & I'm a stud
	11:15am John from Florham park: @Rich in Washington howdy @tim from Champaign howdy
	11:16am Earth Walker: We used drink apple wine and strawberry hill wine when we were kids It was probably 1.20 a bottle We’d get the spins throw up and go home
	11:16am Joe McG: @Boomer: Ha ha, you go boy.
	11:16am melinda: Jimmie, not Jimmy
	11:17am Rich in Washington: Hi John from Florham park! Hi Joe McG! Swell show you got going on here!
	11:18am Hubig Pie: Earth Walker, Annie Green Springs wine. I been to that party
	👻 11:18am tim from champaign (now washington): Howdy John!
	11:19am Mister Dobalina: Excellent show as always Joe, keep up the great 'work'.
	11:19am Brendan: Little Sadie by Doc Watson would be a great story corner candidate. Not the studio record, but rather the Doc and Merle Live version (w/ banjo ). https://youtu.be/2qPUaKZEW4A
	11:20am Joe McG: Thanks, Mr. D! @Brendan: Under advisement for the future! Thx!
	11:22am Earth Walker: Yeah we’d go under an overpass Brooklyn Bay Ridge mess around with the girls We must’ve been 11 or 12
	👻 11:22am Brian in UK: I keep hearing Pretty Boy Floyd on this Ellen Smith.
	11:23am pantz: Lay me down a pallet on your DJ floor, Joe
	11:24am The Oscar: I hope this is an alternate version of "Big Bad John" where the mine collapse is framed as a happy ending.
	11:25am melinda: @pantz haha
	11:25am Brendan: Nice Pink Panther vibe
	11:25am melinda: Sometime I’d like to hear Blood on the Coal by the Folksmen.
	👻 11:26am tim from champaign (now washington): I'd like to hear "The Ballad of Joe Belock and Todd-O-Phonic Todd on a Saturday Night".
	11:26am the leaders running: God I love this guy's mentality
	👻 11:26am tim from champaign (now washington): Oh no! Will Mama be dead by the time CW gets there?
	11:27am Asheville Jon: oh boy, time to break out the tissues.
	11:27am rw: Wow
	11:28am Hubig Pie: I think CW sees the light and pays Mama a visit
	11:28am Linda Lee: Chapel Hill, Tennessee?
	11:28am Asheville Jon: what's next, Teddy Bear?
	11:28am Brendan: Not if he puts the pedal to the metal and runs the roadblock. Yea thats a big 10-4.
	11:29am John from Florham park: @Ashville Jon lots of tissues
	11:29am G: Cee Dubby, don't take your love to mom
	11:29am Asheville Jon: chapen hill tn is south of nashville
	11:29am Linda Lee: ah! thank you Jon! :-)

	11:30am John from Florham park: @Linda lee howdy
	11:31am Linda Lee: hi John!
	11:31am Asheville Jon: oh you know, still livin' the dream
	11:31am pantz: @Brendan Big Bone Lick, KY is still my favorite town name around these parts.
	11:32am Joe McG: Mama didn't die! @melinda and tim: Thanks for the recommendation! (tim, you have to write that one for me to play it)
	11:32am Planet Tyler: I know you're such a Hazlewood fan Joe it probably took a lot to not play the Nancy/Lee version of this.
	11:32am Handy Haversack: There used to be an excellent brown sign on I-75 that just said "BIG BONE LICK" with an arrow pointing up and right. Hope it's still there!
	11:33am pantz: It's still there! Just south of Cincinnati
	11:33am Mister Dobalina: May Handy's hope remain alive.
	11:33am morphe': Earth Walker - 12 yaers old Boones Farm apple - Bliss Park/Owl's Head park(68/Colonial ave).. Jerry Pllar got sick; all the mothers got on the phones - we all got rousted out of bed and got mother's nose breath tested and weall got busted
	11:34am Mister Dobalina: confirmed
	11:34am Joe McG: @Planet Tyler: Had to RESTRAIN myself!
	11:34am melinda: @pantz are you in Kentucky?
	11:34am Linda Lee: good to hear it, Jon! :-)
	11:35am pantz: @melinda yes, Loo-ah-vull
	11:35am The Oscar: One thing I was surprised to learn from the Ken Burns series was that Long Black Veil was written in America in the '50s. For some reason I always assumed it was traditional, and possibly English or Irish.
	11:35am Earth Walker: The new riders of the purple sage do an excellent version of this one
	11:35am Davis: wow. this marriane faithful version, never heard this
	👻 11:35am Ken From Hyde Park: Hey, cool! Mary Wing had "Long Black Veil" as a 3 of a Kind segment a couple years ago.
	👻 11:35am tim from champaign (now washington): I think Marianne Faithfull did Down From Dover in fairly recent times.
	11:36am John from Florham park: @Handy don’t you live all this tunage, geeking out to all this
	11:37am melinda: @pantz DJ Kim Sorise on the Drummer stream is also in Louisville
	11:37am Linda Lee: I believe she recorded that one soon after she got clean. the start of her comeback!
	11:37am morphe': Earth Walker - that was 1974,( 12 going on 13) just graduated from OLA Elem(74th/3rd ave) on my way to Xaverian hs... and....
	11:37am Handy Haversack: Thanks, @pantz! The republic endures, then! Yeah, @John from FP! Digging it!
	11:37am editor_b: I haven't listened to this much country since my sister got married.
	11:37am Asheville Jon: my kids love the Tom T Hall kids album
	11:37am melinda: @Oscar I used to think that too
	11:38am Joe McG: @editor_b: I don't know what that means, but I like the sound of it!
	11:38am pantz: @melinda Cool! I'll have to check out her show.
	11:38am Linda Lee: have we lost the stream?

	11:50am morphe': Thanks Joe... missed the 45s but caught all else... fantabulous!!!!!
	👻 11:51am Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Linda Lee. Sounds like your new year is a ratty one.

	9:37am Spaceballs the Flame Thrower!: hi
	9:38am morphe': Last stanza:" Never has one outfit been designed, to Send so many messages Earrings to empower women Bag that helps charity, jeans made in Wales Cruelty free coat"

	9:46am Joe McG: @tadpoles: You're right, that song does! Maybe that's why I like it. A few of the other songs are quite Pavement-like.
	9:48am Spaceballs the Flame Thrower!: i like driving around Chicago at night in Febuary when the roads are coated with salt from all the hell snow. And yes, its spelled Febuary.
	9:48am chresti - pre work coffee stop LA: Good morning Joe and noise!
	👻 9:48am Brian in UK: Hey Joe.
	9:48am steveo: there's that car crash again!
	9:49am SSS: "And what is this rue?"

	9:56am JakeGould: Good morning, Joe!
	9:56am thormagma: it just went from a 6/4 feel to a waltz to 5/4. LOL
	👻 9:57am Ken From Hyde Park: 17/53rds, I'm guessing.
	9:57am thormagma: whatever polyrhythm was happening in the beginning was giving me visions.
	9:57am Phil in Charlotte: Diggin’ this track!
	9:57am Joe McG: @Ken: Ha ha ha!
	9:58am steveo: from the bandcamp "Their music is unabashedly fun, and experiencing it in a live context is an experience of collective ecstasy, each body moving to its own notion of what the beat may be"
	👻 10:00am YETI BOB: i saw (well, heard) Horse Lords play in a basement one time, there were no lights and it was almost completely dark!
	10:00am steveo: wishlisted that, then opened a new bandcamp account to wishlist it again
	10:00am Mike Wolf: Joe was that a legitimate diabolical cackle from you there?
	10:00am Handy Haversack: This set is cooking, Joe!
	10:01am Joe McG: @Mike: I guess my inner demon leapt out!
	10:01am SPaceballs the Flame Thrower!: I'm a little dizzy from that last song. and i love this beat. :) Just a great collection of records. I'd switch from coffee to weed now if I wasn't in a work meeting.
	10:02am ?: BECK! Blackhole!
	10:03am Brendan: Good Ukrainian topical reference song
	👻 10:04am YETI BOB: how about some 75 dollar bill? that would go nicely
	10:04am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning
	10:05am Hubig Pie: Suddenly, it's Tuesday morning
	10:05am ?: or A Hawk and a hacksaw
	10:06am Joe McG: @Handy: Glad you're enjoying!
	10:08am fred: @YETI BOB: I still say Joe should get 75 dollar bill to do a set around marathon time. Unless the DJ premium pledge level goes up this year
	10:09am Joe McG: @fred: Wish I could! We can't really do live guests once the marathon starts since the live room becomes the phone room.
	👻 10:10am Brian in UK: Joe, good to see the new releases are getting a good run out.
	10:11am Joe McG: @Brian: I'm frontloading since the show after 10:30 will be me oldies. :)
	10:14am fred: @Joe: Do the set before the marathon then, and ask them to do cheesy appeals to broadcast during the marathon
	👻 10:15am Ken From Hyde Park: Is there room on the Marathon Premium Planning Room blackboard for "What Meter Is This?" I'll bet Creamo Coyl would jump on that!
	10:17am βrian: It's a gray day on the isthmus. Not typical, really, so this music helps.
	👻 10:17am TristaC.LadyCaveBrat: I love this Alex Zoumbas
	10:18am Brendan: Pretty good fiddle. Enough to win a shiny fiddle made of gold anyway.
	10:19am The Oscar: One time at the record store I worked at we got a HUGE collection of Armenian 78s. One of the records was by Alexis Zoumbas (who's obviously Greek, but recorded some in Armenia). It wound up selling to Zoumbas' biographer, who was compiling tracks and had never come across this one. I can't recall the piece, but there's a possibility it wound up on this comp!
	10:19am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe & all!
	10:19am fred: @Ken From Hyde Park: Gaylord did a premium like that years ago, called "The Meter Is Running"
	10:20am Brendan: Not the western type of fiddle but more interesting . Perhaps heard in the presence of a gypsy . And a werewolf maybe.
	10:20am Joe McG: @Trista: I love this album! @Oscar: Wow, cool story! There's a comp that came out right before this one, a couple of years ago. Maybe that one. @Greg: Hey, Greg! Glad you got my mailer. :)
	10:21am Krys O.: Yes, this is lovely to hear again.
	10:21am The Oscar: @Joe Could be-- this probably would've been 2015-2016, so that sounds right.
	👻 10:21am Brian in UK: Mississippi knows its stuff.
	10:22am The Oscar: The whole collection was pretty incredible, but as the store's eBay technician they were HELL to transcribe and research...
	10:22am Brendan: Nice to see Smokey still has the pipes . He sang a line or two last night at the Grammies
	10:22am steveo: @fred found the track list for Gaylord's premium www.moorestevie.com...
	👻 10:23am Ken From Hyde Park: Gaylord smart!
	10:24am David (in London): Hey Brian. Did you get yesterday's painting done?
	👻 10:26am Brian in UK: David, yes thanks. It was a beautiful morning today but has quickly spoiled itself. Is the recording moving forward?
	10:28am ChrisB.: I'm getting a real Pre Fab Sprout vibe here.
	10:28am Joe McG: @ChrisB: You know me and Prefab Sprout!
	10:29am mariano: Aww yeah! It's Mardi Gras season here in NOLA, and this music is everywhere - well, even more so than usual, that is :)
	10:29am Aphidface: Great groove show Joe
	10:30am steveo: i once heard a live brass band playing toxic by britney spears and it was very good
	10:31am Joe McG: Whoops, Single File will be a bit late today since "Get Up" snuck up on me!
	10:31am editor_b: Also checking in from NOLA. (Hola Mariano) This Hot 8 track gets a lot of love from me but honestly I don't remember these vocals!?!
	10:31am Hubig Pie: Do what ya wanna not what ya oughta
	10:32am Joe McG: Happy to see Nawleans in the house!
	10:32am Brian St Cyr: We LOVE the Hot 8 here in New Orleans ...Mardi Hras 2020!
	10:33am mariano: @steveo: The second-line and marching bands here have a knack for transforming pop songs. "Livin' on a Prayer" is another favorite for the marching bands. Hot 8 has some other good ones: "Love Will Tear Us Apart" and "Poppa Was a Rolling Stone", etc. Hiya @editor_b, Brian St Cyr, and Hubig Pie! Didn't realize there were so many of us here today :)
	10:33am Joe McG: Don't know when or on who's show, but I hear a rumor that the Hot 8 might be a live guest here at FMU in the near future. Keep tuned in!
	10:35am steveo: @mariano, love it
	10:35am fred: @Mariano: A second-line take on Joy Division? I need to hear that!
	10:35am steveo: you know that tuba player has lungs of steel
	10:36am Brian St Cyr: AFTER Mardi Gras!!!lol
	10:36am Hubig Pie: I'm from the 9 I don't mind dyin'
	10:37am mariano: @fred: Your wish is my command! www.youtube.com... @Joe - wow, that's awesome about Hot 8. I've been pestering DJs on other shows (Nate K, Fine Wine) to get FMU to send DJs down here to cover Carnival.
	10:39am Brian St Cyr: we are right off St Claude here in the Ninth ward
	10:39am Handy Haversack: @mariano, it's not quite the same, but I think you'd have dug this if you were there: northbrooklynboatclub.org...
	10:40am Mister Dobalina: Bongo Joe label ! How great!!!
	10:42am mariano: @Brian: Burgundy & Elysian here. @Handy: That looks great! I lived in Brooklyn for a long time, loved going to the Mermaid Parade, and it seems like brass bands started catching on there.
	10:43am fred: @mariano: thanks!
	10:44am Handy Haversack: @mariano, I have a few friends in some of the local anarchist marching bands. Even had one do a second line for the funeral of a friend ... jeez, 12 years ago now.
	10:45am Billi Eyelash: Hey Joe, Your show adds color to my black and white world.
	10:46am Joe McG: @Billi: Thanks, Billi! :)
	10:47am βrian: Betty's sister was Ilene.
	10:47am mariano: @Handy - I've seen one or two of the NY marching bands, didn't realize there was a political side to them, but makes sense and it's good to know.
	👻 10:48am TristaC.LadyCaveBrat: Brian Brain! This is great!!
	10:48am John from Florham park: Hello fellow surface noise listeners
	10:52am John from Florham park: @Joe it is such a pleasure hearing deep dives into groups like the yardbirds
	10:53am Joe McG: @John: Thanks, John! Sometimes it's fun to play the B-sides instead of the hits.
	10:53am Brendan: Btw The Yardbirds had a tune Little Soldier Boy (unrelated)
	10:54am Joe McG: @Brendan: Wish I had THAT segueway!
	10:55am John from Florham park: @Joe lot of times b sides are a lot better then the so called hits
	10:58am 23 Wolves: Man, I LOVE Terry Jacks! And Susan too!!!
	10:58am pantz: Getting a real David Cassidy vibe from Terry
	10:58am Hubig Pie: Lyrics by Rod McKuen
	10:58am Spaceballs the Flame Thrower!: Was that a English translation of Ne Me Se Que Pa - Nina Simone's cover?
	11:00am Joe McG: @Spaceballs: Yes, it's Jacques Brel.
	11:00am Hubig Pie: Suddenly I'm getting the backdoor VIP treatment for a front row seat to watch Henny Youngman
	11:00am fred: @Spaceballs: do you mean "Ne me quitte pas"?
	11:01am PKNY: I remember KISS covered this Crystals song on "Love Gun", always thought it was a weird choice for them.
	11:01am John from Florham park: terry jacks song besides seasons in the sun, impressive joe thanks
	👻 11:01am tadpoles: My copy's just about as scratchy Joe. Excellent surface noise.
	11:05am John from Florham park: @PKNY never knew kiss did a crystals song, I am impressed with musical knowledge of the people on the accu list, I am among music geeks and I love it
	11:05am mariano: @Hubig: Haha! Nothing but VIP treatment for union delegates, eh?
	11:06am The Oscar: Obligatory reminder that Brel's original lyrics to "Seasons in the Sun" are actually hilariously mean and sarcastic, and are worth comparing to Terry's: genius.com...
	11:08am Brendan: We can forgive Terry for Seasons in the Sun because of the B -side , Put the Bone In. Oh wait no ... that was worse...
	11:09am Earth Walker: Hey Joe. Can you tell me what’s the background music
	11:09am Spaceballs the Flame Thrower!: Shrunken Planet is awesome
	11:10am the leaders running: I used to drink a lot of Wild Irish Rose when I lived in Chicago
	11:11am paul: How bout some Mitchum Calypso?
	11:11am Brendan: Good movie - i think his son is in that one
	11:11am The Oscar: I really wish Mitchum did one of these for Night of the Hunter.
	11:12am paul: His song played his younger brother.
	11:12am paul: Son
	11:13am Bill W: Saw Thunder Road very long ago... Not quite as much fun as the song.
	11:13am Rich in Washington: CHIL-dren! Ooooh CHIL-dren! ♫ ♬
	👻 11:13am tim from champaign (now washington): Hi Joe and everyone! Great Mitchum song. I wonder if he was on the wacky tobaccy when he recorded Ballad of Thunder Road.
	11:14am fred: I think I have that Mitchum track on a DJ premium...
	11:14am mariano: Oh man, that Mitchum calypso album cover is one of my favorites of all time. I learned from my mom that my grandfather and two of his friends briefly owned a nightclub in the 50s, and that on opening night they dressed in tiki-drag (coconut bras, grass skirts) and lip-synced some Mitchum calypso.
	11:15am mariano: (Yeah, I know, mixing up Hawaiian and Caribbean, but it was the 50s and everyone was drunk.)
	11:15am melinda: I like Jimmy Driftwood.
	11:15am Boomer: Chattanooga,Tennessee here & I'm a stud
	11:15am John from Florham park: @Rich in Washington howdy @tim from Champaign howdy
	11:16am Earth Walker: We used drink apple wine and strawberry hill wine when we were kids It was probably 1.20 a bottle We’d get the spins throw up and go home
	11:16am Joe McG: @Boomer: Ha ha, you go boy.
	11:16am melinda: Jimmie, not Jimmy
	11:17am Rich in Washington: Hi John from Florham park! Hi Joe McG! Swell show you got going on here!
	11:18am Hubig Pie: Earth Walker, Annie Green Springs wine. I been to that party
	👻 11:18am tim from champaign (now washington): Howdy John!
	11:19am Mister Dobalina: Excellent show as always Joe, keep up the great 'work'.
	11:19am Brendan: Little Sadie by Doc Watson would be a great story corner candidate. Not the studio record, but rather the Doc and Merle Live version (w/ banjo ). https://youtu.be/2qPUaKZEW4A
	11:20am Joe McG: Thanks, Mr. D! @Brendan: Under advisement for the future! Thx!
	11:22am Earth Walker: Yeah we’d go under an overpass Brooklyn Bay Ridge mess around with the girls We must’ve been 11 or 12
	👻 11:22am Brian in UK: I keep hearing Pretty Boy Floyd on this Ellen Smith.
	11:23am pantz: Lay me down a pallet on your DJ floor, Joe
	11:24am The Oscar: I hope this is an alternate version of "Big Bad John" where the mine collapse is framed as a happy ending.
