12:02pm Chop Scott:

12:02pm WFMU listener john:

12:02pm Handy Haversack:

I broke an actual sweat walking in the sun, Mister D!

👻

12:02pm tim from champaign (now washington):

Hey Joe! Congratulations! All weekend long I kept reading headlines that Joe Belock defeated Trump. Way to go!

12:02pm Kenny rotten:

Hi Joe!!

👻

12:03pm Frank In Queens:

This should be a good one! Hi Joe!

👻

12:03pm tim from champaign (now washington):

Whooooo, Joe just stomped on the gas pedal!

12:03pm Joe B:

hey mister d! hey handy! hey hopey! thanks for being here!

12:03pm Richard from Venezuela:

¡Tequila! Great surprise.

12:03pm Handy Haversack:

Hey there, Frank!

12:04pm Ike:

@Wendy, I don't know if you were familiar with them, but I'm sad to say that Stinky in Cobble Hill has apparently closed.

12:04pm Joe B:

hey david! hey carmichael! hey richard!

12:04pm Joe B:

hey mariano!

12:04pm Joe B:

hey wendy! i dont name the albums!

12:05pm Joe B:

hey Scott!

12:06pm Andres:

Me gusts!

👻

12:06pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Maybe they're implying we yell cheese?

12:06pm Joe B:

hey john!

12:06pm Yes:

:) :) :) :) hi

12:06pm Mister Dobalina:

@ Handy...that's a good thing, right?

12:07pm wendy del formaggio:

@Joe B: I know! I was just poking fun a little bit. Carry on...

12:07pm Joe B:

hey tim!hey kenny!

12:07pm Richard from Venezuela:

Tequila is a freaking classic of spanish rock.

👻

12:07pm tim from champaign (now washington):

Perfect follow up!

12:07pm Joe B:

hey frank!

12:07pm Mister Dobalina:

It's goin' up where? Whaoooo MOMMMAAA.

12:07pm wendy del formaggio:

@Ike: I think I was just there once. It’s tough times.

12:08pm Richard from Venezuela:

Dancing in my seat

12:08pm efd:

Teenage Depression - a Vic Maile production! I would have played this but I was too lazy to bleep it.

12:09pm Joe B:

@richard - i am late to the game but am on board thanks to a friend!

12:09pm mariano:

Wendy: I stand with you against turophobia. In ALL its guises!

12:09pm Woo:

Cheer up teenager, it's a new dawn

12:09pm Handy Haversack:

/Too Lazy to Bleep: A Memoir/.

12:09pm Hubig Pie:

Did someone say cheese? Make mine Wensleydale.

12:10pm Richard from Venezuela:

@JoeB Check Los Rodriguez, also a great ibero-american rock band too.

12:10pm wendy del formaggio:

@mariano: turaphobia! Exactly. Down with turaphobia!

👻

12:10pm tim from champaign (now washington):

SOme folks dismiss MC5's Back In The USA but I think it's a great record and really laid the blueprint for songs like Teenage Depression.

12:10pm Joe B:

@handy - ha!

12:10pm Joe B:

thanks richard - will check it out!

12:10pm bigplanetnoise:

Howdy, JB!

12:10pm wendy del formaggio:

Whoops. TurOphobia. Sorry!

12:11pm chris_in_space:

It's so good to be here @Joe B, @skelcrew, Three-Chorder's .

12:11pm Joe B:

@tim - i think the only person i knew of that dismissed it was fred goodman in his book mansion on the hill, and the axe he had to grind with landau

12:11pm Joe B:

hey chris, thanks!

12:11pm Joe B:

thanks to michele for skeletoning today

👻

12:11pm Frank In Queens:

What's up, Handy?

12:13pm Handy Haversack:

Just criss-crossed Newtown Creek a couple of times, Frank. Seemed to be holding its own. There was a crew greasing the gears of the bridge, so the dog stopped to be admired for a while. A good day to walk the waters!

👻

12:13pm tim from champaign (now washington):

There's a bunch of jabronis I know in Michigan who claim that Kick Out the Jams was MC5's only good album. I'm glad to hear the rest of the world disagrees.

12:13pm ?:

Ola Joe!

12:13pm David (in London):

Tim - I second that opinion around Back in the USA. I think any problem with it is probably production based. I don't think the Five ever really found a producer who understood them properly, though High Time comes close.

12:14pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine):

This is my favorite Blondie song...except for all of my other favorite Blondie songs.

12:14pm JG:

Howdy Joe!

12:14pm Cal Zone!:

Huzzah for all JOE'S around the GLOBE!

12:15pm Joe B:

hey jg! hey cal zone!

12:15pm Joe B:

hey woods! was just having that same thought!

12:17pm Krys O.:

Good afternoon!

12:17pm mariano:

Remember, Wendy: the Book of Brian that Is Called Brian says "Blessed are the cheesemakers."

12:17pm Roberto:

The good times are coming back, y'all!

👻

12:17pm tim from champaign (now washington):

Wooooweeeee!

12:18pm Joe B:

hey krys o! hey ike! hey ken HP!

12:18pm Joe B:

greetings ?

👻

12:18pm Frank In Queens:

The Mighty Van Halen on WFMU! Love it!

12:18pm Joe B:

hey BPN!

👻

12:19pm Hackensack Slim:

Hey Joe, Sounding Swell this fine Monday.

12:19pm Handy Haversack:

Mariano, I think he meant the producers of dairy products in general.

12:20pm Joe B:

hey hubig!

12:20pm Handy Haversack:

And the Mighty They Might Be Giants!

12:20pm Joe B:

hey woo! hey efd!

12:20pm Mister Dobalina:

That Vic Maile show was OUTTA control good. A real gem of a compilation!

12:20pm Joe B:

hey yes!

12:20pm Hopey Sockmonkey:

For some reason I have not heard this TMBG cover of Starry Eyes. Two great things that go together!

12:21pm Todd-o-phonic Todd:

Off and running like The Mindbenders (or Lesley Gore)!

12:21pm Joe B:

hey Andres!

12:21pm David (in London):

I absolutely LOVE this song. And it's still my second favourite song called Starry Eyes. It's a crazy old world.

12:21pm Joe B:

@mr d - second that

12:21pm mariano:

Handy: that was declared heretical at the Synod of Roquefort.

12:21pm Handy Haversack:

Someone ought to sell tickets, David.

👻

12:22pm Hughie Considine:

Unquestionably "Starry Eyes" enjoys a permanent place in the Power Pop Pantheon.

12:22pm Joe B:

agreed Hughie

12:22pm Handy Haversack:

The Diet of Brie invalidated that whole synodery.

12:22pm spodiodi:

hello hello, Joe B and company!
sounding good!

12:23pm Joe B:

hey spodiodi!

12:23pm David (in London):

Mariano, was that convened by the Cheesuits?
Sorry, I'll get my coat.

12:24pm Carmichael:

That Records album was great!

12:24pm mariano:

Anathema! Anathema! (Not the song, Handy Heresy-ack). Hah! Don't get your coat, David, get your cassock and ordain me as a novitiate.

12:25pm Handy Haversack:

Boss Hogg had a good cover of this as well. This cooks, though!

12:26pm David (in London):

mariano - Father Clark is waiting to welcome you to the order. BrieDSM has never been so appealing...

12:26pm mariano:

Yes, Handy, was just thinking of the Boss Hog version. Excellent version.

12:26pm Alvy Singer:

Hi Joe. Have you checked out the new Demolition Doll Rods record,"Into The Brave" on In The Red Records?

12:26pm David (in London):

Yo spod!

12:29pm iiibeat:

(And all of the artists demanded rule by SCIENCE and not even ART AND SCIENCE! Thus, diminishing more thoroughly their own governmental influence and authority . .)

12:29pm mariano:

David: hats off for BrieDSM. You're batting a thousand as we say here.

Hey spodi!

12:30pm Strandlund:

Great set to start the show Mr. Belock...

12:30pm Krys O.:

VH was after my older brother's time. He had Sabbath, Rick Wakeman, ELP and Jade Warrior albums.

12:31pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine):

A lot of older Kinks fans also dismissed everything from Low Budget on. I loved it (especially that album)

12:31pm Roberto:

My older brother introduced me to the Kinks.

👻

12:32pm tim from champaign (now washington):

Here's Eddie himself backing up Joe's point about VH and the Kinks: "These are good songs. Why shouldn't we redo them for the new generation of people?"

12:32pm sdb:

Van Halen version always struck me as filtered thru Bowie's on PinUps

12:32pm Phillippe Bastille:

Good afternoon

12:33pm spodiodi:

Van Halen replaced The Monkees as my favorite band, all thanks to a girl named Carrie's older brother being into VH (she liked them because he did, and i liked them because she did.) Diver Down and Van Halen (1) were my first purchases. this must have been about 6th grade

12:33pm Joe B:

hey alvy! i have not! thanks for the heads up!

12:33pm Mister Dobalina:

Hey! Was someone talkin' bad 'bout cheese?

12:33pm spodiodi:

hi David! hi PB!

12:34pm Joe B:

hey standlund! thanks!

12:34pm Joe B:

hey TOPT!

12:34pm Mike Sin:

Joe B is speaking truth about the Kinks and their popularity arc in the USA -- Their releases on RCA in the mid-'70s got no real respect and went straight to the cut-out bins. When they signed to Arista is hen the game changed because they dismissed a lot of the "concept" work focused on becoming an arena-rock attraction, which required simple broad strokes. Van Halen "embracing" the Kinks only hastened the Kinks new money-making direction.

12:34pm Roberto:

Give the People What They Want was huge on L.A. rock radio in '81.

12:34pm Joe B:

next song after Lannie is for you Wendy!

12:34pm Four Seasons Grain & Seed:

Great stuff, Joe!

12:35pm Joe B:

@woods - agreed!

12:35pm Joe B:

hey phillippe!

👻

12:36pm tim from champaign (now washington):

@Woods - Attitude off of Low Budget is an ass kicker. I think the 70s Kinks RCA records are pretty enjoyable.

12:36pm Handy Haversack:

Phillippe, spodi, hey!

12:36pm spodiodi:

Hi Hi Handy Haversack 8^)

12:37pm Joe B:

hey four seasons! my next remote broadcast will be from the ritz!

12:38pm Four Seasons Grain & Seed:

The Ritz cracker factory in New Rochelle?

12:38pm Joe B:

correction - diver down 1982 - thanks Chris

12:38pm spodiodi:

lol Joe B -- reminds me of a comment related to that story ... something like "they had to book the four seasons -- the ritz was already booked!"

12:39pm spodiodi:

lol pantz

12:40pm kpx:

so as I said earlier how to do a quick cleanup of my apartment before the fire inspector showed up but got caught halfway done, it was a little embarrassing but think I passed. now I just got to worry about the pending State inspector, that's the tough one to appease. Hey Joe, hey Monty listeners.

👻

12:40pm tim from champaign (now washington):

Was this Buckingham Nicks record before they joined Fleetwood Mac?

12:40pm David (in London):

It wasn't just The Kinks either. It's easy to forget just how low the careers of some of the greats dipped at times. I remember seeing Johnny Cash in the early 90s pre-Hurt, pre-revival, and you couldn't give him away at that point. He was doing really bad Country Christmas albums. Amazing show, though.

12:40pm wendy del formaggio:

Thank you, Joe B! ❤️

12:40pm Alvy Singer:

The character Flash on the Kinks Preservation albums could be directly correlated to the current President of The USA.

12:41pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine):

@tim from champaign: Yep. I love that record and also Give The People What They Want.

12:41pm engineer mike:

Great pick Joe on this Buckingham Nicks track

👻

12:41pm Hughie Considine:

Buckingham Nicks LP was 1973, the Bob Welch era...

12:41pm spodiodi:

comment in the local rag :They had to go there.

Ritz-Carlton All-Night Liquor and Pawn Shop was already booked"

12:41pm Roberto:

Is that a [sic] on the "Runaway?"

12:42pm Joe B:

@david - mid to late 80s you could see johnny cash for free at many fairs/festivals, and would bareky draw 1,000 people. for free

12:42pm spodiodi:

newer follow-up headline form today : "It began on a gold escalator. It may have ended at Four Seasons Total Landscaping. " (same rag... just found this one while hunting for the above comment) lol

12:43pm Joe B:

he engineer mike! thanks

12:43pm Carmichael:

The entire Low Budget album was incredible (even Superman, he he).

12:44pm Joe B:

@roberto - yes. maybe a del shannon reference?

12:44pm David (in London):

Joe, Jesus, they had to have thick skins to get through that period. Glad The Man in Black had his time in the sun again before the end.

12:44pm Sissophonic Cheryl:

Hellooooooo Joe!

12:44pm Joe B:

rick rubin got it done

12:45pm Joe B:

hey cheryl!

12:46pm Hubig Pie:

I think The Murder Junkies were big Johnny Cash fans when his popularity was at it's nadir

12:46pm spodiodi:

well said, David -- me too

👻

12:47pm tim from champaign (now washington):

Oh man - I looked at a Target pullout in yesterday's newspaper. I usually just pitch those right away. I was blown away when they were actually advertising music on LPs. It was crap like Keith Urban but I couldn't think of the last time I saw vinyl advertised like that. That doesn't bode well.

12:47pm Woo:

@Hubig Pie, are you talking the GG Murder Junkies?

👻

12:48pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Remember back in the Iraq War times when there was the deck of cards of bad guys? Maybe there can be something similar, but current administration people with the Covid. The nine of diamonds or something can be for Ben Carson, who tested positive.

12:48pm Joe B:

gg allin was a big influence on novelty acts everywhere

12:48pm Hubig Pie:

Ja, Woo

12:48pm spodiodi:

i love that idea, KenFHP

12:48pm MikeDeeThrillSergeant:

Hi Joe! Happy post 🍊 2020 Monday🤘
Purple Wizard-I Idolize you 😉

12:49pm Joe B:

hey mike!

12:49pm Handy Haversack:

Picked up this Marshall Holland album on Friday -- and the CD is in the mails!

12:49pm Tim from LH:

Hey Joe, show sounding great! Looking forward to your creativity with a Alex Trebek tribute.

12:50pm Phillippe Bastille:

hey spodiodi! I wonder if they thought they were doing the conference at the Four Seasons hotel and not the Four Seasons landscaping company...

12:51pm ami ad:

Hello DJ. Hello all. rocks.

12:51pm spodiodi:

PB, that's what m'lady was thinking... i can't imagine. (Guessing one of the henchmen had some connection to the biz)

12:51pm spodiodi:

hihi ami ad

12:52pm Joe B:

hey tim! sadly the tribute ends at instagram. didn't have time to put anything together

12:52pm Joe B:

hey ami ad!

12:53pm David (in London):

Hey ami ad.

12:55pm ami ad:

Hello hello.

12:55pm Handy Haversack:

Can confirm some extra brightness in the outside airs, ami ad.

12:59pm ami ad:

@Handy:How does Bagpipe feel about that shiny pizza pie in the sky?

1:00pm Handy Haversack:

It aids his admirers in admiring him, so he's generally a fan! But he hates cold -- and wet -- and hot -- so it's pretty ideal for him today.

1:01pm Strandlund:

Charlie Chesterman was a friend of mine in high school. He was a great guy!

1:03pm mariano:

KenFHP: Yeah, then someone made a parody of those Iraq trading cards, based on the one for "Chemical" Ali: there was something like "Halitosis" Hassan, "Bad Table Manners" Bashir, etc.

1:04pm mariano:

Hey ami!

1:04pm Joe B:

good to hear strandlund. i was a big fan. met him after a show in philly in 1989

1:04pm ami ad:

@Handy:Nice,hope you enjoyed the walk before too.

1:05pm ami ad:

Hey mariano,sun is shining.

1:06pm Handy Haversack:

Salad time!

1:11pm Hubig Pie:

Does a pair of Hummus breath Hassan's beat a pair of Falafel face Fouad's ?

1:17pm Tim from LH:

Scott sounds like he’s coming back better than ever, more good news!

1:19pm Joe B:

agreed Tim. it's like his 4th release of this year

1:20pm Yes:

:) :) :) :) :) :)

1:22pm Hubig Pie:

Always assumed that boat to be a CG patrol boat

1:23pm Carmichael:

Is this the 1:20 Neil Young song? Kinda like the 4:20 Richard Thompson song on Scott Williams' show.

1:23pm Morris from Dresden:

Hey, that's a nice version of NY/CH... didn't know this.

1:23pm Joe B:

neil just put it on his website last week

1:23pm Alvy Singer:

I wonder if Neil was hopped up on honey slides for this Powderfinger take.

1:24pm Joe B:

@carmichael - getting the led out at 3 with jim price!

1:24pm Joe B:

@alvy - could be - the slower version of sedan delivery was recorded the same day i think

1:24pm DonJuanTijuana:

@JoeB This is why I try to listen every week to your show! Don't Stop!!!

1:25pm Alvy Singer:

@Joe-Thanks for that Sedan Deliver factoid.

👻

1:26pm Hackensack Slim:

Cough Syrup Powderfinger every week!

1:26pm alan the painter:

Thank you Joe, good tunes.

1:26pm Yes:

joe have you heard greendale live yet?

wonderin how that turned out

👻

1:26pm Frank In Queens:

That was a cool version of Powderfinger, but man I really miss the back-up vocals. They kinda make the song for me.

👻

1:29pm James in ATL:

Hello Joe! Really enjoying the show today. Love that Sally Crews track.

1:32pm JG:

Joe Re: Neil Young, I'm a new subscriber to the Archives. I had availed myself to the free stuff he had up for a while ike the Fireside performances, and went back to look at them and decided the $20 a year was a real bargain. But holy cow, I'm livin on that site now. So much cool stuff. Listening to albums that had got past me, like Sleeps with Angels. Love that video of Prime of Life... so much more

1:32pm Joe B:

@yes - i have. on the fence on getting the album. i dug the shows live but not sure if i need to own it

👻

1:33pm Frank In Queens:

Great track off the new Matt Berry!

1:33pm Joe B:

hey james! me too, so glad to see she's back into doing music.

1:33pm Four Seasons Grain & Seed:

Matt Berry really is a man of many talents. Surprisingly, Tim Heidecker is a talented comedian/musician too.

1:34pm Joe B:

@Jg - agreed. the site is a really great immersion. the song folders, just the way it is set up is great. it's weird how stuff comes and goes but it is just really been enjoyable.

1:34pm Joe B:

@four seasons - yeah i need to check out his other projects

1:35pm Four Seasons Grain & Seed:

If it's Berry you mean, he is quite prolific with comedy shows. I might recommend Snuff Box for his earlier stuff.

1:37pm Yes:

sweet fuzz

1:37pm JG:

@ Joe, yes I thought some stuff had maybe come and gone in the week I've been a member but I think some stuff that's no longer featured may still be tucked away in there and still available but not as clearly visible. I found the Prime of Life video at first in his movie theater section and when it was gone I poked around and found elswhere. Such a Neil Rabbit hole

1:41pm JG:

@ Joe, watched Rust never sleeps movie, well a little of it. I had forgotten about the Jawa, or Sand People or whatever Star Wars thing was going on there. Pretty funny

1:42pm Four Seasons Grain & Seed:

This Deathray has a real Dandy Warhols feel.

1:44pm Joe B:

@jg - the good thing about the rotating aspect is i watched the heart of gold flm a few weeks back, and if the entire video catalog was available, i might not have ever watched it again. really renewed my appreciation for the prarie wind album

1:44pm Joe B:

good point four seasons.

1:46pm Really Lisa:

I heard Tame Impala in Leisure.
Hi Joe, everyone.

👻

1:46pm tim from champaign (now washington):

NYA needs to release a Human Highway soundtrack. The damaged Neil/Devo jam needs more light of day.

1:47pm JG:

@ Joe absolutley, on Prarie wind. Intsead of putting on the album tho, i put on the movie. Its on my dvr. it was on cable and I recorded it Really great performance movie

1:48pm Andrew_in_WI:

I bet the Trump campaign tried to book the Ritz Carlton, but got that band instead

1:50pm Handy Haversack:

Hey, Really Lisa!

1:50pm Four Seasons Grain & Seed:

Spanakopita? C'mon Joe B. Ain't you ever been to a Greek diner?

1:51pm Handy Haversack:

Spanakopita = spinach pie!

Whenever a WFMU DJ says "Thibault," all I hear is "TEBOW!!"

1:51pm Really Lisa:

Hey, Handy :) Really happy Monday to you. I feel I can type that now w/confidence.

👻

1:53pm tim from champaign (now washington):

Hahahaha - In my mind I saw Thibault as Tebow and thought it was a pretty good band name. T-t-tebow and the Jets!

1:53pm Handy Haversack:

Too soon, tim. Too. Soon.

👻

1:53pm tim from champaign (now washington):

Really digging the Songhoy Blues cuts i've been hearing.

1:53pm PortsmouthJay:

🎸

1:54pm suzyhotrod:

Hi Joe B! I'm impressed you know so many people who were on Jeopardy. Also I really like this Songhoy Blues song. I will rip off and play on my show. Mwahahaha

1:55pm Joe B:

my sister's roomate from college was on and won one day. and a fellow dj at my old station WNTI, Bill Nutt, also won one day

👻

1:58pm tim from champaign (now washington):

Man, if I showed up to a Jeopardy tryout the producers would tell me that the Bozo Show is being filmed next door.

2:01pm Handy Haversack:

Jeopardy prep has become such a *thing*. I wonder if there was a time when people were more like, "Welp, I know a bunch of nonsense. Let's see how I do!"

2:01pm JG:

I kinda wish I could be on Jeopardy and kinda don't. I fee like I know a good amount of stuff, but know that my buzzer skills and reaction time would be seriously deficient. Gonna miss Alex, he was a comforting presence

2:03pm suzyhotrod:

Let's accept it. We're all Wheel of Fortune level at best.

2:04pm Four Seasons Grain & Seed:

I will certainly miss Alex's presence on the show. Any idea who they will replace him with, or at all?

2:04pm Danny in Poughkeepsie:

Hey Joe great show David in London I got see the Johnny Cash show at Point Lookout on Long Island around that time it was truly amazing

2:05pm Four Seasons Grain & Seed:

This may sound silly, but John Hodgman seems like a good choice. He's brainy and funny.

2:05pm Joe B:

guessing ken jennings

2:05pm Michael Shelley:

A lot of folks think Jeopardy champ Ken Jennings will be the next host.

2:05pm Michael Shelley:

Jinks

2:05pm Heidee:

Oh. What a day. Stuck in between lesson plans, online conferences and stuff. Finally settling down with 'my' WFMU and a couple of Kingfisher beers. - Wait, it's Stereo Total, adorable! I must have heard that call!

2:06pm Handy Haversack:

Though Staysh would be the adventure pick for new Jeopardy host!

👻

2:07pm Frank In Queens:

Ken Jennings has been in the "minor leagues" of game show hosting. He's been a co-host of "Master Minds" on Game Show Network since last year. I think it was on the job training for Jeopardy.

2:09pm Four Seasons Grain & Seed:

Makes sense. I doubt if Hodgman would want it anyway.

👻

2:09pm Frank In Queens:

I think no matter who it is, it's going to be a "name".

2:10pm dave wuz here:

carrot top

2:10pm Four Seasons Grain & Seed:

King Kong!!! From my hometown.

2:11pm JG:

Jennings is a nice guy and smart. But lacks the Trebek charisma. Alex was edgy. Usually gentle and kind but every once in a while if a contestant did something dopey, he'd cal the out on it, usually in a funny but almost mean way. He was great

2:11pm Joe B:

jennings has had some title in the jeopardy credits like 'contributing producer' or something since alex got the cancer diagnosis

2:11pm Four Seasons Grain & Seed:

I didn't think anyone outside of Louisville had even heard of these guys.

👻

2:12pm Frank In Queens:

Interesting. I didn't know that Joe. I'm usually flipping over to MASH when the Jeopardy credits are rolling.

2:12pm Joe B:

they were quite big on wfmu in the pre playlist era 1991-94

2:12pm Carmichael:

Like the old lady who would just yell out the answers, not even using her button.

2:12pm Greg from ZONE 5:

2:21pm David in London:

Danny in Poughkeepsie. Cool, man. Even though he was in the wilderness, he hadn’t changed had he? And only a few years later, people who had no interest in coming with me were saying how much they were kicking themselves for it. Gotta grab the legends when you can.
