	9:07am Strandlund: Morning Joe!! Morning Yippers!!

	9:15am ßizco ßey: SUBPOENA
	9:15am annette: thank you, Rhino !
	9:16am Garrity: ↳ Joe McG @9:14 G'mornin, Joe! Positive vibes for 2025!
	👻 9:17am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Love Is Strange" by "Everything But the Girl" Morning all.. this sure sounds heavenly.
	9:18am StringOFperils: Still clearly recall buying the First Light album in 1978 at Mother's Records on Portage Avenue in Winnipeg...almost rescuing it really, because nobody but nobody was buying that stuff back then. And if anyone fit the definition of nobody, it was certainly me.
	👻 9:18am Webhamster Henry: Good morning Joe + Surface Noise enthusiasts1 it's 2025 - do you know where your records are?
	👻 9:18am captain beef fart: Very weathery in Baltimore.
	9:20am hifivicky: Beautiful opening 💙😭💙😭💙
	9:20am Lana in Bucks County: One of my favorite Carol King songs. Thanks Joe
	9:21am Son Of Pantz: ↳ captain beef fart @9:18 (Jackson for MVP!) We're locked down in Louisville
	👻 9:22am Karl: ↳ Song: "Home Again" by "Carole King" Gorgeous song! Also, I love the way this was recorded, especially the drums.
	9:23am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Song: "Home Again" by "Carole King" Is there anything better than Carole King on a winter Monday morning? Buying a copy of Tapestry at the last record fair filled a major hole in my vinyl stash.
	9:24am hifivicky: OMG this cover is 🔥🔥🔥💃
	9:25am Philip: dig this Lou Bond
	9:25am annette: folks at work accuse me of talking much. so i get even with 2 min music appreciation. 😝
	9:27am duke: ↳ Song: "That's the Way I've Always Heard It Should Be" by... This is kind of a depressing song
	👻 9:27am captain beef fart: ↳ Son Of Pantz @9:21 YES! amazing that U of Louisville produced Baltimore's 2 greatest QBs/HOFers.
	9:28am newton: ↳ duke @9:27 doesnt sound like they should marry
	9:28am StringOFperils: ↳ duke @9:27 Listening to the radio in 1974 was kind of depressing....more than kind of, actually...
	9:28am Asheville Jon: 13 kids?????
	9:29am gabriel: id like to hear an updated version of that song
	👻 9:29am No Big Thing in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Love Is Strange" by "Everything But the Girl" Good morning and Happy New Year, Joe and all. I don't know much about/by EBTG but really dug that.
	9:31am Toothgrinder Tom: Did anyone see ‘A Complete Unknown’? I did and was surprised how good it was.
	9:31am Robini: ↳ StringOFperils @9:28 WXPN in Philly (U.Penn) was pretty awesome on 1974
	9:33am Son Of Pantz: ↳ captain beef fart @9:27 Yep. We had a pretty good run there. Today, you'll find about as much Ravens gear as UofL.
	9:35am Robini: ↳ Song: "1-2-3" by "Collage" More cowbell
	9:35am StringOFperils: ↳ Robini @9:31 I used to tap into WLS Chicago and some huge-wattage station out of Arkansas late at night on my transistor radio to find salvation...
	👻 9:36am Charles in Chicago: ↳ No Big Thing in Chicago @9:29 I caught the end of Ryley Walker's set at the Empty Bottle last night. I would have hit you up but it was a spur of the moment decision to go, I had people over for dinner and after the party ended I couldn't sleep and I remembered about Ryley's gig. The band sounded great, Quin Kirchner on drums, Andrew Young on bass and Bill Mackay on 2nd guitar. Hometown heroes.
	9:36am hifivicky: @ toothgrinder yes, loved it. 😍 t chalamet really put in the work. Ed Norton blew me away, and the fella who did Johnny Cash. Elle fanning heartbreak face at newport was hurrculean 😭
	👻 9:37am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Robini @9:31 WFMU ran a "worst song contest" in 1996 and the categories were by decade except for 1974, "a very special year", which got its own category. wfmu.org...
	9:38am StringOFperils: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:37 Oh man. Yup. Just reading it hurts.
	9:39am Robini: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:37 That's hilarious
	👻 9:39am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:37 You're in funky denim wonderland You and David Crosby and a bloke with no hand
	9:40am annette: MARY HOPKIN! move over Dolly Parton.
	👻 9:41am Webhamster Henry: Nothin' like a lot of 50-year old music. In the 1960s-70s that would be music from the 1910s-20s.
	9:42am newton: I think half breed was earlier than 1974 I remember it in 6th or 7th grade, Mona was obsessed with it, along with Chad Everett
	9:43am greg g: Morning Joe and Surface Noiseniks !
	👻 9:43am No Big Thing in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:36 That's a pretty ideal RW lineup--love seeing him w/ QK. I applaud your last-minute action in the face of insomnia!
	9:43am chresti: Morning Joe and surfies!
	9:44am annette: for next fundraiser, get me some worstest songs. Im in .
	👻 9:44am Charles in Chicago: ↳ No Big Thing in Chicago @9:43 And I got into the show for free because they had "already counted the money" at the door! I got to hear 4 songs, which were great.
	9:46am StringOFperils: ↳ newton @9:42 It was 1973. Capitalizing on the American Indian Movement surfacing in the public mind. The year Brando sent Sacheen Littlefeather to the Oscars
	👻 9:46am No Big Thing in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:44 Hahaha, amazing. You're fairly close to there, right? I miss the ability for spur of the moment good choices like that!
	9:47am jessicaiscool: ↳ Song: "Found Round" by "Styrofoam Winos" love the set
	9:48am Joe McG: ↳ jessicaiscool @9:47 Back from the dead! :)
	👻 9:49am Ken From Hyde Park: I'd like to hear "Bulbous Bouffant" again, if possible. (Scott Williams' Hit List selection from the previous show.)
	👻 9:49am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:41 I think about that a lot. In the 70s nobody listened to 50-year old records but now it's perfectly normal. What happened? What does it mean?
	9:49am Son Of Pantz: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @9:49 Please no.
	👻 9:50am Charles in Chicago: ↳ No Big Thing in Chicago @9:46 Yeah it's about a mile west of me
	9:50am StringOFperils: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:49 It means all material found marketing teams, and everyone perceives an eternal present.
	9:52am newton: ↳ StringOFperils @9:50 the best presents
	👻 9:52am No Big Thing in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:50 Yeah, it's at least 20-25 minutes at least for me to get there pretty much any way you slice it (bike/cta/car).
	👻 9:53am Charles in Chicago: ↳ newton @9:52 Maybe, also, there really was something special and unique about music produced in the period from about 1965-1985, so that we keep wanting to go back to it?
	👻 9:54am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Love-Wise" by "Larry Hovis" Not THE Larry Hovis ...
	9:55am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Joe and Everyone.
	9:55am Crownless Gander: In the '70s, the only way you could listen to music from the '20s was on 78 records, which were already collector's items at the time. Now any schmoe can listen to music from any time with digital technology.
	👻 9:55am Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "Love-Wise" by "Larry Hovis" The guy from Hogan's Heroes?
	👻 9:55am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:49 Kind of draws a parallel to charging connectors. Years ago, there were all kinds of different connectors used, and styles would come & go. Now we've settled on USB-C for the present and forever.
	9:55am Joe McG: ↳ Hughie Considine @9:54 Oh, yes!
	👻 9:56am DjLorraine: My dj.. speaks
	👻 9:57am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Crownless Gander @9:55 I knew people in the 70s who DID listen to 20s material, lots of which had been transferred from shellac to later 78 formats, then to LPs (me included) . But I was weird.
	9:58am annette: @Charles. my first 8 track was PIPPIN. loved " yer on the right track" my ranchero wore it out
	9:58am Crownless Gander: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:57 Cost a lot of money to reissue things, though, so someone had to take a chance that there were enough weirdo nostalgics out there. Now it's basically free to make anything available to anyone.
	👻 9:58am DjLorraine: (you should see my paper airplane 😜)
	9:59am StringOFperils: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:53 The key is probably in the word 'we'. Who are 'we'? My bias is that music from that period speaks to me, from Revolver to the 90s, but before that is remote and after that seems to have abandoned skill....but someone much younger probably doesn't see it that way, and in fact might not find popular music culture of any sort even relevant to anything. Business management and self-love seems more central.
	9:59am Toothgrinder Tom: @hifivicky 9:36 agree 100%.
	9:59am James Douglas: Mighta been the old "you need new brakes to get thru inspection" trick. Happened to me, the next guy I went to said my brakes were fine, but i needed new wiper blades, and passed the van.
	9:59am evancuts: Have you see AUTOFOCUS? Biopic about Crane. Great film. Same writing team who did Ed Wood and People vs Larry Flynt and Man on the Moon and Big Eyes.
	9:59am βrian: John Banner!
	10:00am newton: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:57 I had that Roaring 20's LP too
	10:00am chresti: I forgot Hogans Hero’s theme song!
	10:00am Marigold: I listened to "paper thin" by Lianne La Havas yesterday. good one
	👻 10:01am Webhamster Henry: Hey, Robert Clary "Lebeau" was a popular singer and can be heard on the seminal New Faces of 1952 revuew album.
	10:01am Mark91: Robert Clary (who played Lebeau on Hogan's Heroes) came to our middle school to share his experiences as a Holocaust Survivor. (Im not making this up). Not only did he share with us his horrfying experiences in a concentration camp, but he shared his grim sense of irony that HE was cast in a show about a WWII POW camp. He was a nice man.
	10:01am Toothgrinder Tom: People like Woody Allen and Robert Crumb were proud of only listening to old music in the 1970’s.
	👻 10:01am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Love-Wise" by "Larry Hovis" Larry Hovis can also be heard on the first Laugh-In album from 1968, if you listen closely.
	👻 10:01am Webhamster Henry: ↳ chresti @10:00 There are lyrics to the Hogan's Heroes theme song.
	👻 10:02am Ken From Hyde Park: Robert Clary died November of 2022. The last of the main cast.
	10:02am drr: ↳ evancuts @9:59 Autofocus was very good. Greg Kinnear kind of perfectly cast as Bob Crane, all-American guy with some secrets. They spent a lot of time making the movie crime scenes look like the real-life ones.
	10:02am Crownless Gander: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @10:01 Ha ha! So you're in good company, Henry!
	👻 10:02am Hughie Considine: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @10:01 I'm pretty sure FMU's own Rex doesn't play anything recorded after 1974.
	10:02am StringOFperils: ↳ Mark91 @10:01 Wow! I loved Lebeau! That must have been hard to do that.
	10:03am Toothgrinder Tom: I believe they never solved the murder if Bob Crane?
	👻 10:03am Hughie Considine: ↳ Hughie Considine @10:02 Oops, make that 1964.
	10:07am Joe McG: ↳ Mark91 @10:01 Wow! I had no idea!
	10:08am evancuts: ↳ drr @10:02 Slight correction to my comment...the pair who PRODUCED Auto Focus wrote Ed Wood, People v Larry Flynt, Man on the Moon and Big Eyes. They also did The People vs OJ Simpson--which was really terrific.
	10:09am common: ↳ Song: "Rock 'N' Roll / Nightclubbing" by "The Human League" listened to human league this weekend for some reason. and here they are again!
	10:09am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Rock 'N' Roll / Nightclubbing" by "The Human League" And with that, young Renton had fallen in love.
	10:10am Roberto: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:02 He spoke at my high school in the early '80s, recounting his experiences as a Holocaust survivor.
	10:10am Mark91: ↳ StringOFperils @10:02 It was powerful stuff, especially for 12 year olds like us at the time. Even more painful was seeing an elderly teacher outside the auditorium sobbing. Turned out she was a little girl growing up in Germany who lived outside a concentration camp, who later told us about her memories of watching frm the street as victims were led into the concentration camps. She was like four years old at the time. Anywhos this is an excellent tune. A Gary Glitter and Iggy Pop cover. Love it!
	10:11am Roberto: ↳ Mark91 @10:01 Oh lol I guess it wasn't just my school!
	10:12am drr: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @10:03 I think no one was ever prosecuted for it.
	10:12am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @10:11 I recall one student asked him how he felt when he heard the news of Hitler's death. He said, how do you think I felt? I was ecstatic!
	10:12am Mark T: ↳ StringOFperils @9:35 Late at night, and depending on your topography, RF, specifically FM, can carry much further than during the day. It's simple physics actually, but very cool.
	10:12am money&pain: ↳ drr @10:02 One of Willem Defoe's great performances.
	10:12am drr: ↳ evancuts @10:08 How was Big Eyes? Curious about that one.
	10:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~Good ☽Monday FMUvianz~
	10:14am annette: Bob Crane was a pretty fine drummer
	10:14am StringOFperils: ↳ Mark91 @10:10 I plan to be strolling through Dachau in April, and you can be sure it'll be sorrowful...but it's a day-trip I must do.
	👻 10:15am DjLorraine: ↳ Mark91 @10:01 Thanks for sharing i did not know that! (I didn't want to say "very interesting" ;) -all those characters
	👻 10:15am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "I Hear the..." by "Strange Party" Man, you just had to have a reggae break in a certain ere. It was practically mandatory.
	👻 10:15am Webhamster Henry: ↳ drr @10:12 I liked Big Eyes! One of the more restrained Tim Burton movies.
	10:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well ...long as there's never again families separated & put in detention - & we never side with oppressors in asymmetrical ethnic conflicts ...that sort of thing...
	10:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:17 ...have secret prisons with torture ...yerknow. Never Again. Again...
	10:18am he's Crafty: ↳ Song: "A Clean Break (Let's Work)" by "Talking Heads" ⭐️🔊🔊🕺🕺🥰❤️
	10:19am drr: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:15 didn't know it was Tim Burton! Boy, I hated the Planet of The Apes movie he directed.
	10:19am annette: @String. our hearts follow you and bless all souls
	10:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a police state turns on & kills its own people & serves only an autocrat ...never happen here thank gawd...
	10:20am StringOFperils: ↳ annette @10:19 Thank you. I will remember you to them.
	👻 10:21am Webhamster Henry: ↳ drr @10:19 I think he's quoted as saying he wanted to make a movie based on bubblegum cards.
	10:23am drr: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:21 well, I think he succeeded.
	👻 10:23am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Kingdom Come" by "Television" Well this song sure went through some changes.
	10:23am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: Good morning Joe McG and everyone. Signing in late, I had to take a nap with the cat after Wake n Bake.
	👻 10:23am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Kingdom Come" by "Television" You know how to drag me out of the shadows, don't you, Joe? A live double-whammy from TH & TV!
	👻 10:23am Karl: The kids need to know about Television
	10:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: When Television was a band with RichardHell in it - I presume... Yeah any time they did it - woulda been a different feel maybe...
	👻 10:24am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Karl @10:23 queue Clay's "Kids, today" sound effect!
	10:25am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Mark91 @10:10 In 1945, my late father's battalion liberated Flossenberg concentration camp. My dad's platoon arrived a week later. All he ever said was, I'm glad I wasn't there when they broke down the door.
	10:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...one thinks of the MarqueeMoon album as a very specific sort of crystal - but it coulda been another...
	10:25am Triple G: I’m intrigued if this is a newly discovered live show of Television’s that is adjacent to a WFMU archiving project
	👻 10:25am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:24 He was gone by the time they went to Cleveland.
	10:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:25 Oh okay Thanks.
	👻 10:26am Karl: ↳ Triple G @10:25 aquariumdrunkard.com...
	10:26am Joe McG: ↳ Triple G @10:25 No, it's been floating around for a long time.
	10:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:25 Weren't we all.
	10:27am Triple G: Ah ok, thanks Karl!
	10:27am Triple G: and Joe!
	10:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:26 Yes. Yet we should know.
	👻 10:28am Karl: ↳ Triple G @10:27 You may be thinking of Live at the Academy, which John Allen was involved in: recordstoreday.com...
	👻 10:28am Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Song: "Kingdom Come" by "Television" driving home in the flurries, Joe really rockin with this one
	10:28am StringOFperils: It's a wonder that Television coalesced as long as it did. So much internal conflict.
	10:29am Eddie C.: Great to hear these CBGB memories from TH and TV on a winter morning Joe!
	10:29am crei6hton: Morning wfmu
	👻 10:29am Karl: ↳ StringOFperils @10:28 You know what they say: every unhappy band is unhappy in their own way, while every happy band is... there are no happy bands.
	10:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's like Dylan playing Live & then 'Blonde On Blonde' ...except that was also him with Nashville players...
	10:30am StringOFperils: But, not Television, maybe no CBGBs, on conning Hilly into letting that ever happen there....history and chance...
	👻 10:31am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:26 But you're right that this still sounds like it has one foot between early TV and one between the band that would make MM. These long improv stretches were a move in that direction. There's a great story about Tom breaking all his strings and then beating the hell out of his amp during a version of this song that same year.
	10:31am StringOFperils: **can't seem to type the word 'no'. Didn't know I was that positive.
	👻 10:31am Listener Bryan (the Professor): I don't really think of the later TV song as the same song that we just heard.
	10:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:31 It's fabulous. I want to be in that Band. That's all...
	10:32am Roberto: Bruh. It's been almost 2 years since Tom Verlaine died.
	10:32am Toothgrinder Tom: @Crownless Gander 10:02 great artists, yes.
	10:32am annette: gotta go and charge this stupid phone. big love to the kind world holding hands
	👻 10:32am Brian in UK: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @10:25 If you see any of Lee Miller's work she filmed in Buchenwald & Dachau I have no idea how she continued. Guess that showing the world through Vogue magazine was the reason.
	👻 10:33am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:31 I like early TV too. I like the later versions, but I like the ramshackle quality of the early rounds, the Eno demos, etc.
	10:33am Roberto: Really.
	10:33am hifivicky: that was INCENDIARY 🔥🔥🔥 also I just spent 20 min rabbit holing Bix Beiderbecke bc y'all said nobody in the 70s listened to old music, and I remembered my friends dad playing Bix for us when I was a kid haha
	👻 10:33am Zip7: Here's the whole Television show -- apparently their first outside of NYC: www.cleveland.com...
	👻 10:34am Hughie Considine: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:31 I guess he kept the title and certain elements of the ostensible chorus but the rest of it is totally different.
	👻 10:34am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Zip7 @10:33 If I remember right, Peter Laughner was key in getting them out to Cleveland.
	10:34am Noir Lover: Remember when Tom Verlaine's book sale was 3 blocks long. You'd think they were giving his books away.
	10:34am andy the painter: okay. two years since TV died. i thought i was having another weird post-pandemic time warp.
	10:35am Roberto: There are some advantages to the faster perception of time that comes with being older. For example, four years don't seem like such an eternity anymore.
	👻 10:36am Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Roberto @10:35 👍
	10:36am StringOFperils: Summer holidays used to seem 10 years long. Now a month seems like a minute.
	10:36am Joe McG: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:34 It was hard to hear but at the end he thanked Peter for getting them out to Ohio, along with Rocket from the Tombs for opening the show.
	10:36am danny san: ,, if you speed up that bed music it sounds like the opening of that 70s thing by Exile "kiss youse all over"
	10:37am Roberto: I knew it was two years because I was driving back from Philadelphia when tributes were being played, and my daughter moved out of Philly a year and a half ago.
	10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Roberto @10:35 Def get less hung up about Seasons in North NewEngland.
	10:37am Joe McG: ↳ danny san @10:36 Ha ha, you caught it. That's what it is.
	10:38am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Rest in Peace" by "Chad and Jeremy" Love this-- would pair well with Scott Walker's "Funeral Tango!"
	👻 10:39am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Morning Joe McG, crew! TGIM and all that.
	10:40am danny san: ,,, good stuff ,,
	👻 10:40am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Joe McG @10:36 Thanks! I've listened to that show a few times and it must have been stuck in my head. The after chatter just sounded like mumbling to me today...listening at work and probably with the volume down too low. Laughner had high hopes of joining the band, I think, and it seemed like it might happen at one point!

	9:16am Garrity: ↳ Joe McG @9:14 G'mornin, Joe! Positive vibes for 2025!
	👻 9:17am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Love Is Strange" by "Everything But the Girl" Morning all.. this sure sounds heavenly.
	9:18am StringOFperils: Still clearly recall buying the First Light album in 1978 at Mother's Records on Portage Avenue in Winnipeg...almost rescuing it really, because nobody but nobody was buying that stuff back then. And if anyone fit the definition of nobody, it was certainly me.
	👻 9:18am Webhamster Henry: Good morning Joe + Surface Noise enthusiasts1 it's 2025 - do you know where your records are?
	👻 9:18am captain beef fart: Very weathery in Baltimore.
	9:20am hifivicky: Beautiful opening 💙😭💙😭💙
	9:20am Lana in Bucks County: One of my favorite Carol King songs. Thanks Joe
	9:21am Son Of Pantz: ↳ captain beef fart @9:18 (Jackson for MVP!) We're locked down in Louisville
	👻 9:22am Karl: ↳ Song: "Home Again" by "Carole King" Gorgeous song! Also, I love the way this was recorded, especially the drums.
	9:23am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Song: "Home Again" by "Carole King" Is there anything better than Carole King on a winter Monday morning? Buying a copy of Tapestry at the last record fair filled a major hole in my vinyl stash.
	9:24am hifivicky: OMG this cover is 🔥🔥🔥💃
	9:25am Philip: dig this Lou Bond
	9:25am annette: folks at work accuse me of talking much. so i get even with 2 min music appreciation. 😝
	9:27am duke: ↳ Song: "That's the Way I've Always Heard It Should Be" by... This is kind of a depressing song
	👻 9:27am captain beef fart: ↳ Son Of Pantz @9:21 YES! amazing that U of Louisville produced Baltimore's 2 greatest QBs/HOFers.
	9:28am newton: ↳ duke @9:27 doesnt sound like they should marry
	9:28am StringOFperils: ↳ duke @9:27 Listening to the radio in 1974 was kind of depressing....more than kind of, actually...
	9:28am Asheville Jon: 13 kids?????
	9:29am gabriel: id like to hear an updated version of that song
	👻 9:29am No Big Thing in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Love Is Strange" by "Everything But the Girl" Good morning and Happy New Year, Joe and all. I don't know much about/by EBTG but really dug that.
	9:31am Toothgrinder Tom: Did anyone see ‘A Complete Unknown’? I did and was surprised how good it was.
	9:31am Robini: ↳ StringOFperils @9:28 WXPN in Philly (U.Penn) was pretty awesome on 1974
	9:33am Son Of Pantz: ↳ captain beef fart @9:27 Yep. We had a pretty good run there. Today, you'll find about as much Ravens gear as UofL.
	9:35am Robini: ↳ Song: "1-2-3" by "Collage" More cowbell
	9:35am StringOFperils: ↳ Robini @9:31 I used to tap into WLS Chicago and some huge-wattage station out of Arkansas late at night on my transistor radio to find salvation...
	👻 9:36am Charles in Chicago: ↳ No Big Thing in Chicago @9:29 I caught the end of Ryley Walker's set at the Empty Bottle last night. I would have hit you up but it was a spur of the moment decision to go, I had people over for dinner and after the party ended I couldn't sleep and I remembered about Ryley's gig. The band sounded great, Quin Kirchner on drums, Andrew Young on bass and Bill Mackay on 2nd guitar. Hometown heroes.
	9:36am hifivicky: @ toothgrinder yes, loved it. 😍 t chalamet really put in the work. Ed Norton blew me away, and the fella who did Johnny Cash. Elle fanning heartbreak face at newport was hurrculean 😭
	👻 9:37am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Robini @9:31 WFMU ran a "worst song contest" in 1996 and the categories were by decade except for 1974, "a very special year", which got its own category. wfmu.org...
	9:38am StringOFperils: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:37 Oh man. Yup. Just reading it hurts.
	9:39am Robini: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:37 That's hilarious
	👻 9:39am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:37 You're in funky denim wonderland You and David Crosby and a bloke with no hand
	9:40am annette: MARY HOPKIN! move over Dolly Parton.
	👻 9:41am Webhamster Henry: Nothin' like a lot of 50-year old music. In the 1960s-70s that would be music from the 1910s-20s.
	9:42am newton: I think half breed was earlier than 1974 I remember it in 6th or 7th grade, Mona was obsessed with it, along with Chad Everett
	9:43am greg g: Morning Joe and Surface Noiseniks !
	👻 9:43am No Big Thing in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:36 That's a pretty ideal RW lineup--love seeing him w/ QK. I applaud your last-minute action in the face of insomnia!
	9:43am chresti: Morning Joe and surfies!
	9:44am annette: for next fundraiser, get me some worstest songs. Im in .
	👻 9:44am Charles in Chicago: ↳ No Big Thing in Chicago @9:43 And I got into the show for free because they had "already counted the money" at the door! I got to hear 4 songs, which were great.
	9:46am StringOFperils: ↳ newton @9:42 It was 1973. Capitalizing on the American Indian Movement surfacing in the public mind. The year Brando sent Sacheen Littlefeather to the Oscars
	👻 9:46am No Big Thing in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:44 Hahaha, amazing. You're fairly close to there, right? I miss the ability for spur of the moment good choices like that!
	9:47am jessicaiscool: ↳ Song: "Found Round" by "Styrofoam Winos" love the set
	9:48am Joe McG: ↳ jessicaiscool @9:47 Back from the dead! :)
	👻 9:49am Ken From Hyde Park: I'd like to hear "Bulbous Bouffant" again, if possible. (Scott Williams' Hit List selection from the previous show.)
	👻 9:49am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:41 I think about that a lot. In the 70s nobody listened to 50-year old records but now it's perfectly normal. What happened? What does it mean?
	9:49am Son Of Pantz: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @9:49 Please no.
	👻 9:50am Charles in Chicago: ↳ No Big Thing in Chicago @9:46 Yeah it's about a mile west of me
	9:50am StringOFperils: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:49 It means all material found marketing teams, and everyone perceives an eternal present.
	9:52am newton: ↳ StringOFperils @9:50 the best presents
	👻 9:52am No Big Thing in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:50 Yeah, it's at least 20-25 minutes at least for me to get there pretty much any way you slice it (bike/cta/car).
	👻 9:53am Charles in Chicago: ↳ newton @9:52 Maybe, also, there really was something special and unique about music produced in the period from about 1965-1985, so that we keep wanting to go back to it?
	👻 9:54am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Love-Wise" by "Larry Hovis" Not THE Larry Hovis ...
	9:55am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Joe and Everyone.
	9:55am Crownless Gander: In the '70s, the only way you could listen to music from the '20s was on 78 records, which were already collector's items at the time. Now any schmoe can listen to music from any time with digital technology.
	👻 9:55am Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "Love-Wise" by "Larry Hovis" The guy from Hogan's Heroes?
	👻 9:55am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:49 Kind of draws a parallel to charging connectors. Years ago, there were all kinds of different connectors used, and styles would come & go. Now we've settled on USB-C for the present and forever.
	9:55am Joe McG: ↳ Hughie Considine @9:54 Oh, yes!
	👻 9:56am DjLorraine: My dj.. speaks
	👻 9:57am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Crownless Gander @9:55 I knew people in the 70s who DID listen to 20s material, lots of which had been transferred from shellac to later 78 formats, then to LPs (me included) . But I was weird.
	9:58am annette: @Charles. my first 8 track was PIPPIN. loved " yer on the right track" my ranchero wore it out
	9:58am Crownless Gander: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:57 Cost a lot of money to reissue things, though, so someone had to take a chance that there were enough weirdo nostalgics out there. Now it's basically free to make anything available to anyone.
	👻 9:58am DjLorraine: (you should see my paper airplane 😜)
	9:59am StringOFperils: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:53 The key is probably in the word 'we'. Who are 'we'? My bias is that music from that period speaks to me, from Revolver to the 90s, but before that is remote and after that seems to have abandoned skill....but someone much younger probably doesn't see it that way, and in fact might not find popular music culture of any sort even relevant to anything. Business management and self-love seems more central.
	9:59am Toothgrinder Tom: @hifivicky 9:36 agree 100%.
	9:59am James Douglas: Mighta been the old "you need new brakes to get thru inspection" trick. Happened to me, the next guy I went to said my brakes were fine, but i needed new wiper blades, and passed the van.
	9:59am evancuts: Have you see AUTOFOCUS? Biopic about Crane. Great film. Same writing team who did Ed Wood and People vs Larry Flynt and Man on the Moon and Big Eyes.
	9:59am βrian: John Banner!
	10:00am newton: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:57 I had that Roaring 20's LP too
	10:00am chresti: I forgot Hogans Hero’s theme song!
	10:00am Marigold: I listened to "paper thin" by Lianne La Havas yesterday. good one
	👻 10:01am Webhamster Henry: Hey, Robert Clary "Lebeau" was a popular singer and can be heard on the seminal New Faces of 1952 revuew album.
	10:01am Mark91: Robert Clary (who played Lebeau on Hogan's Heroes) came to our middle school to share his experiences as a Holocaust Survivor. (Im not making this up). Not only did he share with us his horrfying experiences in a concentration camp, but he shared his grim sense of irony that HE was cast in a show about a WWII POW camp. He was a nice man.
	10:01am Toothgrinder Tom: People like Woody Allen and Robert Crumb were proud of only listening to old music in the 1970’s.
	👻 10:01am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Love-Wise" by "Larry Hovis" Larry Hovis can also be heard on the first Laugh-In album from 1968, if you listen closely.
	👻 10:01am Webhamster Henry: ↳ chresti @10:00 There are lyrics to the Hogan's Heroes theme song.
	👻 10:02am Ken From Hyde Park: Robert Clary died November of 2022. The last of the main cast.
	10:02am drr: ↳ evancuts @9:59 Autofocus was very good. Greg Kinnear kind of perfectly cast as Bob Crane, all-American guy with some secrets. They spent a lot of time making the movie crime scenes look like the real-life ones.
	10:02am Crownless Gander: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @10:01 Ha ha! So you're in good company, Henry!
	👻 10:02am Hughie Considine: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @10:01 I'm pretty sure FMU's own Rex doesn't play anything recorded after 1974.
	10:02am StringOFperils: ↳ Mark91 @10:01 Wow! I loved Lebeau! That must have been hard to do that.
	10:03am Toothgrinder Tom: I believe they never solved the murder if Bob Crane?
	👻 10:03am Hughie Considine: ↳ Hughie Considine @10:02 Oops, make that 1964.
	10:07am Joe McG: ↳ Mark91 @10:01 Wow! I had no idea!
	10:08am evancuts: ↳ drr @10:02 Slight correction to my comment...the pair who PRODUCED Auto Focus wrote Ed Wood, People v Larry Flynt, Man on the Moon and Big Eyes. They also did The People vs OJ Simpson--which was really terrific.
	10:09am common: ↳ Song: "Rock 'N' Roll / Nightclubbing" by "The Human League" listened to human league this weekend for some reason. and here they are again!
	10:09am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Rock 'N' Roll / Nightclubbing" by "The Human League" And with that, young Renton had fallen in love.
	10:10am Roberto: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:02 He spoke at my high school in the early '80s, recounting his experiences as a Holocaust survivor.
	10:10am Mark91: ↳ StringOFperils @10:02 It was powerful stuff, especially for 12 year olds like us at the time. Even more painful was seeing an elderly teacher outside the auditorium sobbing. Turned out she was a little girl growing up in Germany who lived outside a concentration camp, who later told us about her memories of watching frm the street as victims were led into the concentration camps. She was like four years old at the time. Anywhos this is an excellent tune. A Gary Glitter and Iggy Pop cover. Love it!
	10:11am Roberto: ↳ Mark91 @10:01 Oh lol I guess it wasn't just my school!
	10:12am drr: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @10:03 I think no one was ever prosecuted for it.
	10:12am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @10:11 I recall one student asked him how he felt when he heard the news of Hitler's death. He said, how do you think I felt? I was ecstatic!
	10:12am Mark T: ↳ StringOFperils @9:35 Late at night, and depending on your topography, RF, specifically FM, can carry much further than during the day. It's simple physics actually, but very cool.
	10:12am money&pain: ↳ drr @10:02 One of Willem Defoe's great performances.
	10:12am drr: ↳ evancuts @10:08 How was Big Eyes? Curious about that one.
	10:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~Good ☽Monday FMUvianz~
	10:14am annette: Bob Crane was a pretty fine drummer
	10:14am StringOFperils: ↳ Mark91 @10:10 I plan to be strolling through Dachau in April, and you can be sure it'll be sorrowful...but it's a day-trip I must do.
	👻 10:15am DjLorraine: ↳ Mark91 @10:01 Thanks for sharing i did not know that! (I didn't want to say "very interesting" ;) -all those characters
	👻 10:15am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "I Hear the..." by "Strange Party" Man, you just had to have a reggae break in a certain ere. It was practically mandatory.
	👻 10:15am Webhamster Henry: ↳ drr @10:12 I liked Big Eyes! One of the more restrained Tim Burton movies.
	10:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well ...long as there's never again families separated & put in detention - & we never side with oppressors in asymmetrical ethnic conflicts ...that sort of thing...
	10:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:17 ...have secret prisons with torture ...yerknow. Never Again. Again...
	10:18am he's Crafty: ↳ Song: "A Clean Break (Let's Work)" by "Talking Heads" ⭐️🔊🔊🕺🕺🥰❤️
	10:19am drr: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:15 didn't know it was Tim Burton! Boy, I hated the Planet of The Apes movie he directed.
	10:19am annette: @String. our hearts follow you and bless all souls
	10:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a police state turns on & kills its own people & serves only an autocrat ...never happen here thank gawd...
	10:20am StringOFperils: ↳ annette @10:19 Thank you. I will remember you to them.
	👻 10:21am Webhamster Henry: ↳ drr @10:19 I think he's quoted as saying he wanted to make a movie based on bubblegum cards.
	10:23am drr: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:21 well, I think he succeeded.
	👻 10:23am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Kingdom Come" by "Television" Well this song sure went through some changes.
	10:23am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: Good morning Joe McG and everyone. Signing in late, I had to take a nap with the cat after Wake n Bake.
	👻 10:23am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Kingdom Come" by "Television" You know how to drag me out of the shadows, don't you, Joe? A live double-whammy from TH & TV!
	👻 10:23am Karl: The kids need to know about Television
	10:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: When Television was a band with RichardHell in it - I presume... Yeah any time they did it - woulda been a different feel maybe...
	👻 10:24am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Karl @10:23 queue Clay's "Kids, today" sound effect!
	10:25am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Mark91 @10:10 In 1945, my late father's battalion liberated Flossenberg concentration camp. My dad's platoon arrived a week later. All he ever said was, I'm glad I wasn't there when they broke down the door.
	10:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...one thinks of the MarqueeMoon album as a very specific sort of crystal - but it coulda been another...
	10:25am Triple G: I’m intrigued if this is a newly discovered live show of Television’s that is adjacent to a WFMU archiving project
	👻 10:25am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:24 He was gone by the time they went to Cleveland.
	10:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:25 Oh okay Thanks.
	👻 10:26am Karl: ↳ Triple G @10:25 aquariumdrunkard.com...
	10:26am Joe McG: ↳ Triple G @10:25 No, it's been floating around for a long time.
	10:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:25 Weren't we all.
	10:27am Triple G: Ah ok, thanks Karl!
	10:27am Triple G: and Joe!
	10:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:26 Yes. Yet we should know.
	👻 10:28am Karl: ↳ Triple G @10:27 You may be thinking of Live at the Academy, which John Allen was involved in: recordstoreday.com...
	👻 10:28am Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Song: "Kingdom Come" by "Television" driving home in the flurries, Joe really rockin with this one
	10:28am StringOFperils: It's a wonder that Television coalesced as long as it did. So much internal conflict.
	10:29am Eddie C.: Great to hear these CBGB memories from TH and TV on a winter morning Joe!
	10:29am crei6hton: Morning wfmu
	👻 10:29am Karl: ↳ StringOFperils @10:28 You know what they say: every unhappy band is unhappy in their own way, while every happy band is... there are no happy bands.
	10:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's like Dylan playing Live & then 'Blonde On Blonde' ...except that was also him with Nashville players...
	10:30am StringOFperils: But, not Television, maybe no CBGBs, on conning Hilly into letting that ever happen there....history and chance...
	👻 10:31am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:26 But you're right that this still sounds like it has one foot between early TV and one between the band that would make MM. These long improv stretches were a move in that direction. There's a great story about Tom breaking all his strings and then beating the hell out of his amp during a version of this song that same year.
	10:31am StringOFperils: **can't seem to type the word 'no'. Didn't know I was that positive.
	👻 10:31am Listener Bryan (the Professor): I don't really think of the later TV song as the same song that we just heard.
	10:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:31 It's fabulous. I want to be in that Band. That's all...
	10:32am Roberto: Bruh. It's been almost 2 years since Tom Verlaine died.
	10:32am Toothgrinder Tom: @Crownless Gander 10:02 great artists, yes.
	10:32am annette: gotta go and charge this stupid phone. big love to the kind world holding hands
	👻 10:32am Brian in UK: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @10:25 If you see any of Lee Miller's work she filmed in Buchenwald & Dachau I have no idea how she continued. Guess that showing the world through Vogue magazine was the reason.
	👻 10:33am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:31 I like early TV too. I like the later versions, but I like the ramshackle quality of the early rounds, the Eno demos, etc.
	10:33am Roberto: Really.
	10:33am hifivicky: that was INCENDIARY 🔥🔥🔥 also I just spent 20 min rabbit holing Bix Beiderbecke bc y'all said nobody in the 70s listened to old music, and I remembered my friends dad playing Bix for us when I was a kid haha
	👻 10:33am Zip7: Here's the whole Television show -- apparently their first outside of NYC: www.cleveland.com...
	👻 10:34am Hughie Considine: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:31 I guess he kept the title and certain elements of the ostensible chorus but the rest of it is totally different.
	👻 10:34am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Zip7 @10:33 If I remember right, Peter Laughner was key in getting them out to Cleveland.
	10:34am Noir Lover: Remember when Tom Verlaine's book sale was 3 blocks long. You'd think they were giving his books away.
	10:34am andy the painter: okay. two years since TV died. i thought i was having another weird post-pandemic time warp.
	10:35am Roberto: There are some advantages to the faster perception of time that comes with being older. For example, four years don't seem like such an eternity anymore.
	👻 10:36am Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Roberto @10:35 👍
	10:36am StringOFperils: Summer holidays used to seem 10 years long. Now a month seems like a minute.
	10:36am Joe McG: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:34 It was hard to hear but at the end he thanked Peter for getting them out to Ohio, along with Rocket from the Tombs for opening the show.
	10:36am danny san: ,, if you speed up that bed music it sounds like the opening of that 70s thing by Exile "kiss youse all over"
	10:37am Roberto: I knew it was two years because I was driving back from Philadelphia when tributes were being played, and my daughter moved out of Philly a year and a half ago.
	10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Roberto @10:35 Def get less hung up about Seasons in North NewEngland.
	10:37am Joe McG: ↳ danny san @10:36 Ha ha, you caught it. That's what it is.
	10:38am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Rest in Peace" by "Chad and Jeremy" Love this-- would pair well with Scott Walker's "Funeral Tango!"
	👻 10:39am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Morning Joe McG, crew! TGIM and all that.
	10:40am danny san: ,,, good stuff ,,
	👻 10:40am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Joe McG @10:36 Thanks! I've listened to that show a few times and it must have been stuck in my head. The after chatter just sounded like mumbling to me today...listening at work and probably with the volume down too low. Laughner had high hopes of joining the band, I think, and it seemed like it might happen at one point!
	10:41am he's Crafty: ↳ Song: "Sweet Bitter Love" by "Marcia Griffiths" ⭐️🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
	10:45am Roberto: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:37 Seasons are funny, sometimes they seem longer to me than they used to. But overall, there's no doubt the passage of time has accelerated significantly since I hit my 50s.
	👻 10:45am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Joe McG @10:36 okay i looked it up in the book & it also sounds like TV's visit to Cleveland exacerbated tensions in that scene because Laughner wanted Television/Verlaine all to himself. And according to Danny Fields's gossip column, a bunch of TV fans from NY made their way out to those shows. Fun times!
	10:45am northguineahills: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @10:39 haze 3M!
	10:47am Joe McG: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:45 Ah, scene jealousies! Youth!
	👻 10:47am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Joe McG @10:47 Peter's hogging Tom!!!
	10:48am drr: ↳ Noir Lover @10:34 I wonder what books he had...I recall one day I was idly perusing some cutout bins fulla nothin' at the old Barnes & Noble on 5th Ave. when a giant, veiny hand intruded into view. I thought Frankenstein had joined me in shopping but it was just Tom Verlaine.
	10:49am StringOFperils: ↳ drr @10:48 He used to work at The Strand, didnt't he?
	👻 10:50am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ drr @10:48 He had a bajillion books, most of them in storage spaces. The best part about the sale was looking at the big patterns in what he collected, but he collected very widely. A lot of the books had little handwritten notes in them with valuations, probably from looking them up online.
	10:50am Mark91: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @10:25 Thank your father, and his comrades for his service to our county, and the world.
	10:51am Asheville Jon: ↳ Song: "Nowhere Road" by "Steve Earle" nice Steve choice

	10:55am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Song: "Landscape Grown Cold" by "John Hartford" Wow, John Hartford. That was gorgeous, stopped me in my tracks.
	10:56am Joe McG: ↳ Kotzwinkled @10:52 I think they're great! Very underplayed LP on WFMU, but I really liked it.
	10:56am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "La, La, La" by "Massiel" I wonder if this is an influence on Mattiel.
