	👻 9:15am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Cheri Pi. How's Ohio today?
	9:16am Cheri Pi: Ohio is rather soggy ATM, my commute to work was more like a hydroplane ride.
	9:18am Mark R: It's soggy in NJ too, Cheri.
	9:21am Bronwyn Bishop: soggy in manhattan as well
	9:22am Polyus: Absolutely gorgeous in Mpls now, after having snow as recently as this past Monday.
	9:23am themutante: It's scorchio on Scotland's west coast, as it has been all week, Dinae know if I like it or not.
	9:24am JakeGould: So soggy.
	9:25am themutante: Sounds moist!
	9:25am themutante: Filthy word, moist is.
	9:29am The Watermelons are coming: What a nice song
	9:32am Rev. Turnip Druid: PI.
	9:33am Rev. Turnip Druid: WHOA. JEEZUS. Haven't heard Anagenic for ages. Had the cassette about 30 yrs ago, or whenever the hell that was.
	9:36am Sem Chumbo: Good morning John, and those in the Fan-Allen Belt around the world. Good to hear you here once more, JA.
	9:42am Rev. Turnip Druid: [googles] - good guess, it turns out. Anagenic is about 31 years old at this point.
	9:51am Mark R: Jon Hassell's so wonderfully freaky...
	9:56am Passaic River Blues: @Mark R: Yesterday, I saw on Ambient Church's instagram a posting of a flyer for a 1989 Brian Eno sonic rainforest installation and performance by the Jon Hassell Group in the Winter Garden atrium of the WFC downtown. It looked amazing.
	10:08am JakeGould: Squishy is as vile a word as moist.
	10:11am George of Troy: Hey, John!
	10:11am themutante: @JakeGould: Aye, it's right alongside.
	10:12am JakeGould: Russ Meyer’s “Moist and Squishy Morning.”
	10:17am Polyus: I have been completely fried on Prince for years now, so I am kinda surprised at how much I enjoyed hearing that track in this set. Definitely listened to that record a lot when it was new.
	10:17am fm Mike: Imma be blunt, where's Marty McSorley this morning?
	10:22am Passaic River Blues: @Mike: Cali-forn-i-a, I believe.
	10:23am John Allen: like, are you asking where he is right now? like a general concern for his wellbeing? If so, all I can really tell ya is that he is fine and not here.
	10:23am fm Mike: Passaic, oh nice! On a trip?
	10:25am Passaic River Blues: @Mike: Last week, he mentioned going back home to the "motherland" for weddings and to generally see fam, as far as I recall. Also, I feel like an asshole for missing the last two or three Mary Lattimore shows at Monty Hall. I like everything single thing by her I've ever heard.
	10:27am fm Mike: Oh nice :)
	10:30am fm Mike: You'll get her next time.
	10:32am V Priceless: hey John - diggin' the show!
	10:39am Mark R: This Tim Buckley tune is a real tearjerker, man.
	10:39am frozen_peas: great stuff!
	10:43am Mark R: I think you're hitting just the right note for this gloomy Friday morning. (That's a compliment.)
	10:43am Passaic River Blues: This set is a masterwork of linking the hidden affinities of ostensibly disparate tracks. Loving it.
	10:47am joe from Warwick NY: This set is a different Friday feel. Goes great with the rain. Loving it.
	10:48am fm Mike: Mark R, gloomy where you are too? It's overcast here in Georgia as well.
	10:48am Michele: Great show so far John!
	10:49am Mark R: Gloomy in the general NYC vicinity--including Jersey City, where John is currently spinning...
	10:50am themutante: Powerful set, John Allen!
	10:55am Stevel: Gloomy in the Midwest as well. Appreciating the darker tones.
	10:56am Mark R: Wait--is the Famous Ray's or the Famous Original Ray's?
	10:59am melinda: I'm finding that this goes well with the grey day, too.
	11:02am Michele: This track is amazing ♥
	11:04am fm Mike: What the...
	11:04am Listener142985: Sounds of my brain caught on tape!
	11:04am Bronwyn Bishop: uh oh, marty's secret identity revealed!
	11:05am fm Mike: Sax is probably the most traumatic track I have ever heard in my life. And I've listened to PH Fat lol
	11:05am melinda: I thought it was his real name.
	11:06am jt: "....carried in the moth light's hairy glow" always liked that line. Hi John Allen, What a nice surprise this AM. jt
	11:11am Kim: Hey I lived in Columbus when this guy was making music.
	11:12am miles: I guess she removed it
	11:12am Listener142985: Wha happen?
	11:12am melinda: Great line to go out on.
	11:13am Bronwyn Bishop: what was the line i missed it
	11:13am themutante: Gotta be keepin' it clean, Jean. It was a killer line before the deck-stop.
	11:14am melinda: 'Please remove your tampon'. That was the line.
	11:15am Bronwyn Bishop: ah. well good for nudge squidfish, doing his part to prevent toxic shock syndrome
	11:17am karen eliot: this is comparable
	11:17am fm Mike: Lol
	11:19am Michele: Laurice was INCREDIBLE at the record fair
	11:19am Polyus: okay what was the punk band that Laurice fronted way back in the day? I saw reference to it somewhere but am drawing a blank right now.
	11:20am fm Mike: How was the record fair Michele? I didn't get to go on account of living so far away.
	11:21am Michele: Was fantastic!
	11:23am JakeGould: I was stunned at how empty the WFMU $1 LP bins by Saturday afternoon. Last year I showed up on Sunday and they were still full. Great work everyone!
	11:24am fm Mike: :D
	11:25am fm Mike: That's good to hear.
	11:26am KevinfromBayRidge: Good morning to all. Nice to hear JA on this deluge of a day here.

	11:43am JakeGould: Hey Kevin!
	11:45am Wendy del Formaggio: Of course I just tuned in with barely 15 minutes to go, but, yay John Allen!
	👻 11:47am Ken From Hyde Park: @Wendy - Remember to tune in earlier next Friday. JA will be here again.
	11:49am KevinfromBayRidge: Sorry for the extra "l".Michele. Damn auto-suggest on my phone. Jake, you represented BR proudly as a volunteer, unlike myself. Next year!
	11:49am Wendy del Formaggio: @Ken from HP: Thanks for the tip, my friend. I can often tune in on a weekday, but not always. My work means sometimes I'm away from computers -- or I have to watch a municipal meeting -- so less WFMU-time. Boo.
	11:51am fm Mike: Wendy I am about to be in the same boat. I'm moving from a store job to a moving job! Luckily they give me a work phone, so I can listen on the go. Whew.
	11:52am miles: I hear a Mrs Brown Lovely Daughter influence here
	11:53am miles: who is Bill Jerpy?
	11:54am Wendy del Formaggio: @fm Mike: Is this a promotion for you? If so, congratulations! My job has me sitting at computers sometimes, and out in the field sometimes. I really like that about it. I also have deadlines instead of schedules (I'm a reporter) so that's also a huge plus.
	11:54am miles: jerpe*?
	11:55am Michael 98145: @Wendy, all love to our journalists ...
	11:56am fm Mike: @Wendy, of sorts. I'm getting a brand new job entirely lol
	11:56am Wendy del Formaggio: @Michael 98145: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
	11:57am Carmichael: A psychic promotion, Mike. Heya John and radio citizens.
	11:57am Sem Chumbo: Don't be a stranger, John. Thanks for the spins, Dark Side of Your Face was good to hear. See ya!
	11:57am Wendy del Formaggio: @fm Mike: Mazel tov to you on your new job. I hope you love it.
	11:58am Passaic River Blues: Thank you, John.

	12:09pm Michael 98145: Yes!
	12:11pm Michael 98145: Erk - vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net...

JA In The AM with John Allen: Playlist from May 5, 2017

View John Allen's profile

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)
