	9:06am b: Hearing the Yip Yips always makes me smile.
	9:07am glenn: the partridge family makes me quail.
	👻 9:07am Brian in UK: @Joe "So much wasted time" were these really David Cassidy's last words?
	9:07am Davee: GM Joe!
	9:08am dale: he's riding the big bus now.
	9:08am Krys O.: Loved the TV show and the music. R.I.P. David Cassidy
	👻 9:08am NotARealDoctor: Good morning, Joe! Good morning, everyone! I hope everyone had as great a weekend as I did!
	9:08am jess: @Brian yes
	9:09am fredr: Reliving our childhood here! My wife thanks you Joe.
	9:09am Sem Chumbo: I like to think the Partridge Family bus was the Pranksters "Further" repainted to make it wholesome. Hello, Joe, McGaskoes, the Surface Noise-curious.
	9:09am glenn: i honestly can't believe david cassidy gets more love than gord downie.
	9:09am dale: i always had to laugh at how they would be 'performing' on the show and you hear strings and horn sections that are no where to be seen. television was a real suspension of disbelief.
	9:09am βrian: But Susan Dey!
	👻 9:10am NotARealDoctor: Man I remember watching reruns of The Partridge Family with mom and dad when I was a kid. We used to all sing along when they would sing.
	9:11am Mike Sin: "Lay it on the Line" -- my favorite Partridge Family track.... March 1972 -- I was up in the blue seats at Madison Square Garden at a riotous (of screaming 14-year-old girls) David Cassidy concert. Opening act = Tony Orlando and Dawn. My first time at a concert and my first time to MSG.
	9:11am dale: the tragically hip really were just a canadian thing glenn. you never hear teenage head on this station either.
	9:11am Sem Chumbo: Oh, yeah @βrian.
	👻 9:12am Brian in UK: @Sem still processing that thought. Not that I know the Partridge Family.
	9:12am Sem Chumbo: Teenage Head! Now you're talking @dale.
	9:13am glenn: i'd put the hip up against any band, even ween.
	9:13am pantz: I wonder if Paul Williams wrote any of the Partridge Family gems. They sure have his sound.
	9:13am Sem Chumbo: @BiUK: here's the bus: www.cmongethappy.com...
	9:13am dale: disgusteen is a fantastic song!
	9:14am dale: those are fightin' words to eelanus glenn!
	9:15am Sem Chumbo: Further: i.pinimg.com...
	👻 9:15am Brian in UK: Sem I see what you are driving at.
	9:17am Schnipp: Can you say “Sunshine Pop”?
	👻 9:17am Brian in UK: I remember Dennis Hopper driving one like a lunatic (is there any other role) in the film Out of the Blue.
	9:18am glenn: anyway, there's a big gord downie mural in buffalo.
	👻 9:19am Ken From Hyde Park: @glenn - How 'bout them Argos?
	9:20am dale: yeah, all my wny friends were bummed on fb.
	9:20am glenn: one of the weirdest grey cup games yet, and that's saying something.
	9:20am Eelanus: Nah, the Hip arent as good as Ween, but theyre good - Gord was an excellent front-man. And surprisingly, he was a huge GBV fan, and has covered them!
	9:22am pantz: Gord died a month ago and people are still talking about him. I'm not sure Bowie got as much buzz after he died. The Hip were a thing, but North of the border.
	9:23am Eelanus: Yeah, he was Canada's songwriting legend for sure.
	9:23am V Priceless: hi Joe!
	9:24am dale: you guys know the northern pikes?
	9:24am Eelanus: Defo!
	9:25am glenn: yep. from saskatoon.
	9:25am glenn: at least, i think.
	9:25am Sem: BiUK @ 9:17 perhaps he was channeling the U-bus driver of the Pranksters, another Cassady, Neal. Electric Kool-aid Acid Test caught the whole mayhemic show that was Kerouac's muse.
	9:26am Eelanus: They were, yep. Teenland was a good song. So was She Aint Pretty
	9:26am glenn: she ain't pretty, she just looks that way.
	9:26am dale: one of the guys from pikes gave my wife's girlfriend herpes back in the 80s.
	9:26am davefromtoronto: omg that's awful.
	9:27am glenn: canada gives and gives and gives.
	9:27am dale: ha ha!!
	9:27am glenn: and what thanks do we get? none.
	9:27am davefromtoronto: the tune not the herpes comment. well, that too...
	9:27am dale: i miss party game.
	9:28am pantz: Give me the Schmenge Brothers, any day.
	9:28am glenn: on reflection, the northern pikes are very smithereenish.
	9:29am Joe McG: Hey everybody, hope you're having a good Monday!
	9:30am steveo: wow wow just getting here; will listen to this set tonight with my family...
	9:30am dale: my wife knows the guys from no means no - they stayed at her parent's house when they came to buffalo to play a show at the continental (i think it was the continental).
	9:32am Ewe Alone: Thank you Joe McG. This set brings back fond memories of my sisters and I sharing Tiger Beat magazines loaded with David Cassidy pics.. and fighting over who gets to hang up the giant fold-out poster of him in our bedrooms :)
	👻 9:32am Ken From Hyde Park: Feeling good, mostly (sore throat). I don't feel very cyber-y, though. Sitting down and watching QVC for a while should fix that right up.
	9:32am Eelanus: oh man. No means No are fantastic - My guy got to open up for them years ago once. Super great band
	9:33am Schnipp: Past 24 hours on FMU I’ve heard more partridge family than in my entire life. And I am old.
	👻 9:35am Ken From Hyde Park: Did Bonaduce record anything after The Partridge Family?
	9:37am BnowB: It is emotional when our beloved musicals who graced our hearts pass away. RIP David Cassidy
	9:37am dale: don't think so, but ricky segall had an album called 'ricky segall and the segalls'
	9:38am dale: bobby sherman was on a few times.
	9:39am Lixiviated Life: please tell me you're planning on playing at least 1 Cowsills song. PLEASE
	9:39am dale: bobby sherman is really a horrible singer. he just had the hair.
	9:39am βrian: I'd rather have a Partridge Bus lunch box.
	👻 9:41am Brian in UK: Post-it Note. LIVE
	9:41am dale: 'three ring binder' 'book cover' no. 2 ticonderoga' 'lunch ticket'
	9:42am The Oscar: I've spent much of my life in record stores, and I never noticed that about the album titles. My mind is blown.
	9:43am The Oscar: Also recently caught a PF rerun recently in one of my favorite '60s/'70s TV episode genres: the main characters meet a "wacky" underground newspaper reporter/editor.
	👻 9:43am Brian in UK: A Mercury Rev Song?
	9:44am Davee: I enjoyed the tribute Joe, it brought back a lot of memories!
	9:44am βrian: I think post-it notes weren't really around yet.
	9:45am Davee: How about electric pencil sharpeners?
	9:45am Joe McG: @Brian: Good ear! Yes, they opened their Monty Hall show with this one. The new LP is all covers by people like Yes, Dylan, and Mink deVille.
	9:46am Joe McG: @Davee: Glad you enjoyed it! It felt good to hear some songs. Hope anyone who hates the Partridges made it through intact.
	9:50am annie: sorry to be so late.... i should have stayed in instead of going down for coffee...
	9:52am Mikey_B: All hits so far, as usual.
	9:54am Joe McG: @Mikey: I try to get to all the favorites. :) @annie: Many partridges were in the pear tree while you were away.
	👻 9:54am TristaC.HerLadyCaveBrat: tuned in!
	9:58am annie: i see that... maybe i'll hit that part up later for a dash of schmaltz
	9:58am SeanG: hi Trista! :-D
	10:00am pantz: WFMU is one of the only places that pumpkin spice is not added this month.
	10:01am Brendan: @Joe @People, hi. Nice song
	10:08am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe and all! Back to the grindstone…
	10:08am Schnipp: Everlys redux
	10:08am Itzall Ablurr: 'Morning Joe, 'morning good people of the air and cybersphere. Great set this morning, as per usual. BTW, what exactly IS "car wash hair"? Inquiring "minds"...
	10:10am steveo: i pictured the long felt-like strips that wiggle around and suds up the car as it goes through the wash
	10:10am Peter 64t: Oh man! that Cut Worms sure sounds nice
	10:12am Itzall Ablurr: steveo, that sounds plausible, and probably quite relaxing!
	10:12am Dennis Diken: howdy Joe!
	👻 10:12am Brian in UK: Joe too late for Fall in Philadelphia. This is a great debut album.
	10:13am Itzall Ablurr: Wasn't "hole Oates" Daryll's petname for his "partner"?!?
	10:13am Brendan: Tragic ballads with bizarre deaths are the best
	10:17am queems: great show today, joe! excellent autumn driving music!
	10:18am Joe McG: @queems: Wow, I couldn't strive for anything better. Thanks!
	10:18am melinda: Great set.
	10:19am queems: you're very welcome! thank you!!
	10:19am Schnipp: You mean the Grass Roots recorded something other than Live for Today?
	10:19am ChrisB.: Wow, first few bars of this Grass Roots, thought it was a John Doe solo outing.
	10:20am Krys O.: Oh, the Grass Roots had a really deep catalog. So good.
	10:20am Dennis Diken: "I Can't Help But Wonder, Elizabeth" - wow, one of my favorite tunes ever. PF Slaon's (the writer) version (same basic track as Grass Roots) is even more soulful. great nonetheless!
	👻 10:21am TristaC.HerLadyCaveBrat: Yay! Thanks Joe!
	10:21am Joe McG: @Dennis: P.F. Sloan was such a great writer!
	10:23am steveo: love the bendy guitar
	10:26am βrian: That sounds like something Gumby would play.
	10:27am Schnipp: What was donkey’s name?
	👻 10:28am Brian in UK: Joe used to have Raised On Records by P.F. Sloan, came out around '72. Where is it now?
	10:28am βrian: Pokey the pony?
	👻 10:29am Brian in UK: Think it never has come out on CD.
	10:31am Brendan: Tarnation was one ofYosemite Sam’s cusswords
	10:31am Joe McG: @Brian: I think it's in your shed.
	10:32am coelacanth∅: good morning Joe and all
	10:32am Davee: SINGLES!!!!
	👻 10:33am Brian in UK: Joe, I can remember the day I bought it, on the way home my motorcycle ran out of petrol and I had to push it with the record under my jacket to the nearest petrol station. It survived.
	10:36am melinda: Good covers aren't a disappointment.
	10:37am medson: Hey Joe. Been tuned in no chance to comment. A little late but thanks for the David Cassidy tribute. I agree what you said about the show being part of your childhood. One of my favs was when Danny was being chased by the Mob. "Vic Tayback"
	10:37am rw: The vocalist on that Tarnation track reminded me at moments of Phil Ochs with her vibrato.
	10:37am Greg from ZONE 5: Hmm. Probably either Fakebook or Fuckbook.
	10:37am pantz: Under The Covers with Susanna Hoffs and Matthew Sweet is a great cover album.
	10:38am Joe McG: @medson: A great one! I generally loved the interaction between Ruben Kincaid and Danny Partridge. @Greg: Excellent choices! @pantz: Agree, I like the first one a lot. @melinda: You're so right!
	10:40am The Oscar: Call me crazy, but I actually kind of loved the covers album Danzig put out a couple years back. Some of it was just dumb hard rock covers, but the oldies he does are pretty great, and he opens with a couple of obscure biker movie themes which are legitimately fantastic.
	10:40am Joe McG: Surfer Blood has a covers album in our new bin right now.
	10:41am melinda: I like Fakebook too.
	10:42am The Oscar: Speaking of covers, Combustible Edison does a great version of this one.
	10:43am Uncle Michael: Joe, this has been an outstanding show, even by your normally sky-high standard.
	10:43am Joe McG: Thanks so much, Uncle Michael! @Oscar: I like the Senor Coconut album of Kraftwerk covers even though it's silly.
	10:45am dale: love this orbison with it's chord progressions - it's like a cheery 'it's over'
	10:45am Uncle Michael: Senior Coconut's "Showroom Dummies" outshines the original!
	10:47am dale: sounds of mods working the cowsills vibe very hard.
	👻 10:48am Hughie Considine: @RW, that's Paula Frazer, who did a fine vocal on Cornershop's "Good to Be on the Road Back Home Again." Haunting voice.
	10:48am pantz: This has a Free Design feel.
	10:49am pantz: Della! Who wouldn't want Della as a guardian angel?
	10:49am βrian: Buenos días, Tio Miguel.
	10:51am steveo: is it me or does that distorted guitar sound like a catfight?
	10:52am steveo: (talking about della reese)
	10:53am Joe McG: @steveo: Whatever it is, it sounds amazing!
	10:54am steveo: yep!
	10:54am steveo: could you play a clunker next so I can get up and get some tea? ;)
	10:55am Joe McG: @steveo: Ha ha! You might hate the next one.
	10:55am Brendan: Rip Della and Mel
	10:56am rw: Thanks Hughie! Haunting is a good description. I'll keep her on my radar.
	10:57am steveo: dang; sorry, I like it too...
	10:59am Joe McG: I support rhyming "Rooga" and "lose-a."
	10:59am Aaron Working In Newark: Jags
	11:00am Krys O.: Wow! This Jags song brings me back to high school!
	11:00am SueAdynamo: sounds like a cross between Elvis Costello and Weird Al
	11:01am fdny john: oh man! the jags! saw em at bottom line in like 78 i think. great pop song.
	11:01am βrian: @SueA: Most definitely!
	11:01am Mark in Toronto: You couldn't write a better imitation Costello song if you tried.
	11:01am Henry: @Sue... nailed it
	11:02am Greg from ZONE 5: Writing your number on people: Another lost art replaced by the smartphone.
	11:02am The Oscar: Oh man, I think I have this on some comp or another (maybe one of the Rhino DIY albums?). You could make a pretty great album of just fake Elvis Costellos.
	11:02am Itzall Ablurr: Any Trouble.
	👻 11:03am Brian in UK: They still stamp you hand at small gigs over here.
	11:03am βrian: Then there's writing the number in mirror script on one's back.
	11:04am Mark in Toronto: Hey fellow Canadians, how about the Diodes? The Poles? Blue Rodeo?
	11:05am βrian: @BUK: What, no micro-chip in the forearm yet?
	11:05am pantz: Bananarama much?
	👻 11:06am Brian in UK: Bananarama have reformed with all three. @βrian no tattooed on the back of the neck.
	👻 11:08am Brian in UK: 'Sounds' has long gone.
	11:16am Joe McG: Has Bananarama really reformed? That's exciting to me!
	11:20am Brendan: Nice tongue solo
	11:22am glenn: the best thing about the poles was doug pringle, who was in syrinx prior.
	11:22am common: hello, Joe! all
	11:24am Joe McG: @Brendan: The tongue man is named Reality "D" Blipcrotch. I don't kid.
	11:24am glenn: but here's a good photo of them. ccca.concordia.ca...
	11:25am pantz: Reality Blipcrotch?! Was he a Charles Dickens character?
	11:27am Joe McG: @pantz: If Dickens had written in 1969, he would've been there!
	11:32am Mark in Toronto: @Glenn: CN Tower was an amazing single. They did a nice live set once on CFNY that i still own the cassette of. Syrinx were good - didn't they provide the theme to a CTV show?
	11:32am Greg from ZONE 5: LOL
	11:33am common: combined with that drumming!
	11:33am Itzall Ablurr: In fairness, he was wearing mittens.
	11:33am rbrt: lol
	11:33am steveo: nice tone though :)
	11:33am Dominick: Better than me. But yes, "Canyons of Your Mind" level
	11:34am V Priceless: what it lacked in skill it made up for in fearlessness!
	11:34am Joe McG: @Itzall: Ha ha ha! It was chilly in that cavern!
	11:35am Brendan: I like that loose style. He definitely wasn’t afraid of making mistakes.
	11:36am glenn: yes. the show was here come the 70's. the song was tillicum.
	11:36am Velvet Frog: I'm hearing some Dream Weaver up in this piece.
	11:38am Mark in Toronto: @Glenn: Are you in Toronto?
	11:41am βrian: Jane Birken?
	11:42am Joe McG: @Brian: Yeppers!
	11:43am βrian: Je swoon!
	11:44am glenn: yep. little malta represent.
	11:45am pantz: Whoa! These guitar licks could easily be from the 60's. This was produced in 2017?
	11:46am pantz: Oh. I see it was from 1969.
	11:46am Mark in Toronto: @Glenn: Is that Dundas St W./The Junction?
	11:47am glenn: yes. i felt that little malta sounded more suave.
	11:47am Sem: Goodbye Joe me gotta go, me oh my oh Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou My Yvonne the sweetest one, me oh my oh Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou. From the heart of Acadie, from whence those who would be called Cajuns were expelled in 1755 ( Le Grand Dérangement), and in their expulsion created an entirely original culture out in the swamps and bayous, this is goodbye for now, Joe, and McGaskoes. Later.
	11:48am Mark in Toronto: @Glenn: I'd have to call myself Oakwood Village!
	11:48am andrew: "tonight on as it happens..."
	11:48am Joe stalvey: After this break, a story about a brave family in Nunavut. Stay with us, eh?
	11:48am glenn: now that's suave.
	11:49am βrian: Why am I thinking of talk radio?
	11:49am βrian: @Joe: Ah yes, of course.
	11:49am Mark in Toronto: Do they still make Suave shampoo?
	11:49am glenn: because curried soul the theme for as it happens.
	11:50am Joe McG: @andrew/JoeStalvey: Ha ha ha!
	11:50am coelacanth∅: tchau Sem
	11:51am glenn: hmmm. google says yes to the suave.
	11:51am βrian: And I always here Carol Off as Carl Orff.
	11:52am Mark in Toronto: Nice Joe. Please dig up Swingin' Shepherd Blues.
	11:53am glenn: hee hee. awesome concrete boner. www.thelastpogo.net...
	11:56am Joe McG: Running out of time! Thanks for listening and commenting, everyone. Happy December!
	11:56am Mick: Yet another in a seemingly endless stream of great shows - thanks Joe!
	11:57am Mark in Toronto: Glenn: I saw that documentary at a theatre, and bought the DVD at Soundscapes. Some funny footage of S. Leckie.
	11:57am pantz: Excellent show, Joe! I think I burned off my Thanksgiving lbs from the foot tapping, this morning.
	11:58am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, Joey!
	11:59am glenn: yeah, it's a good doc. i saw it at the lighthouse. all the old punks were there.
	11:59am Mark in Toronto: Glenn: The theatre on Gerrard?
	12:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Joe!
	12:00pm steveo: thanks, Joe!
	12:00pm glenn: no, the tiff bell lighthouse. it's on king street.

Listener comments!
	👻 9:04am Threemoons: Greetings fellow YipYips, Joe..
	9:04am pantz: So long, Mr Cassidy.
	👻 9:04am Brian in UK: Hey Joe, this writer is still being updated (getting older that is)
	9:05am βrian: You can't grouse about the Partridge Family!
	👻 9:05am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning. I bid you Yip Yip!
	9:05am Cheri Pi: Good morning Yippers
	9:05am pantz: Is Leif Garrett still alive?
	9:06am Guido from Cologne: Good morning Joe! R.i.P. David C.!
	9:06am b: Hearing the Yip Yips always makes me smile.
	9:07am glenn: the partridge family makes me quail.
	👻 9:07am Brian in UK: @Joe "So much wasted time" were these really David Cassidy's last words?
	9:07am Davee: GM Joe!
	9:08am dale: he's riding the big bus now.
	9:08am Krys O.: Loved the TV show and the music. R.I.P. David Cassidy
	👻 9:08am NotARealDoctor: Good morning, Joe! Good morning, everyone! I hope everyone had as great a weekend as I did!
	9:08am jess: @Brian yes
	9:09am fredr: Reliving our childhood here! My wife thanks you Joe.
	9:09am Sem Chumbo: I like to think the Partridge Family bus was the Pranksters "Further" repainted to make it wholesome. Hello, Joe, McGaskoes, the Surface Noise-curious.
	9:09am glenn: i honestly can't believe david cassidy gets more love than gord downie.
	9:09am dale: i always had to laugh at how they would be 'performing' on the show and you hear strings and horn sections that are no where to be seen. television was a real suspension of disbelief.
	9:09am βrian: But Susan Dey!
	👻 9:10am NotARealDoctor: Man I remember watching reruns of The Partridge Family with mom and dad when I was a kid. We used to all sing along when they would sing.
	9:11am Mike Sin: "Lay it on the Line" -- my favorite Partridge Family track.... March 1972 -- I was up in the blue seats at Madison Square Garden at a riotous (of screaming 14-year-old girls) David Cassidy concert. Opening act = Tony Orlando and Dawn. My first time at a concert and my first time to MSG.
	9:11am dale: the tragically hip really were just a canadian thing glenn. you never hear teenage head on this station either.
	9:11am Sem Chumbo: Oh, yeah @βrian.
	👻 9:12am Brian in UK: @Sem still processing that thought. Not that I know the Partridge Family.
	9:12am Sem Chumbo: Teenage Head! Now you're talking @dale.
	9:13am glenn: i'd put the hip up against any band, even ween.
	9:13am pantz: I wonder if Paul Williams wrote any of the Partridge Family gems. They sure have his sound.
	9:13am Sem Chumbo: @BiUK: here's the bus: www.cmongethappy.com...
	9:13am dale: disgusteen is a fantastic song!
	9:14am dale: those are fightin' words to eelanus glenn!
	9:15am Sem Chumbo: Further: i.pinimg.com...
	👻 9:15am Brian in UK: Sem I see what you are driving at.
	9:17am Schnipp: Can you say “Sunshine Pop”?
	👻 9:17am Brian in UK: I remember Dennis Hopper driving one like a lunatic (is there any other role) in the film Out of the Blue.
	9:18am glenn: anyway, there's a big gord downie mural in buffalo.
	👻 9:19am Ken From Hyde Park: @glenn - How 'bout them Argos?
	9:20am dale: yeah, all my wny friends were bummed on fb.
	9:20am glenn: one of the weirdest grey cup games yet, and that's saying something.
	9:20am Eelanus: Nah, the Hip arent as good as Ween, but theyre good - Gord was an excellent front-man. And surprisingly, he was a huge GBV fan, and has covered them!
	9:22am pantz: Gord died a month ago and people are still talking about him. I'm not sure Bowie got as much buzz after he died. The Hip were a thing, but North of the border.
	9:23am Eelanus: Yeah, he was Canada's songwriting legend for sure.
	9:23am V Priceless: hi Joe!
	9:24am dale: you guys know the northern pikes?
	9:24am Eelanus: Defo!
	9:25am glenn: yep. from saskatoon.
	9:25am glenn: at least, i think.
	9:25am Sem: BiUK @ 9:17 perhaps he was channeling the U-bus driver of the Pranksters, another Cassady, Neal. Electric Kool-aid Acid Test caught the whole mayhemic show that was Kerouac's muse.
	9:26am Eelanus: They were, yep. Teenland was a good song. So was She Aint Pretty
	9:26am glenn: she ain't pretty, she just looks that way.
	9:26am dale: one of the guys from pikes gave my wife's girlfriend herpes back in the 80s.
	9:26am davefromtoronto: omg that's awful.
	9:27am glenn: canada gives and gives and gives.
	9:27am dale: ha ha!!
	9:27am glenn: and what thanks do we get? none.
	9:27am davefromtoronto: the tune not the herpes comment. well, that too...
	9:27am dale: i miss party game.
	9:28am pantz: Give me the Schmenge Brothers, any day.
	9:28am glenn: on reflection, the northern pikes are very smithereenish.
	9:29am Joe McG: Hey everybody, hope you're having a good Monday!
	9:30am steveo: wow wow just getting here; will listen to this set tonight with my family...
	9:30am dale: my wife knows the guys from no means no - they stayed at her parent's house when they came to buffalo to play a show at the continental (i think it was the continental).
	9:32am Ewe Alone: Thank you Joe McG. This set brings back fond memories of my sisters and I sharing Tiger Beat magazines loaded with David Cassidy pics.. and fighting over who gets to hang up the giant fold-out poster of him in our bedrooms :)
	👻 9:32am Ken From Hyde Park: Feeling good, mostly (sore throat). I don't feel very cyber-y, though. Sitting down and watching QVC for a while should fix that right up.
	9:32am Eelanus: oh man. No means No are fantastic - My guy got to open up for them years ago once. Super great band
	9:33am Schnipp: Past 24 hours on FMU I’ve heard more partridge family than in my entire life. And I am old.
	👻 9:35am Ken From Hyde Park: Did Bonaduce record anything after The Partridge Family?
	9:37am BnowB: It is emotional when our beloved musicals who graced our hearts pass away. RIP David Cassidy
	9:37am dale: don't think so, but ricky segall had an album called 'ricky segall and the segalls'
	9:38am dale: bobby sherman was on a few times.
	9:39am Lixiviated Life: please tell me you're planning on playing at least 1 Cowsills song. PLEASE
	9:39am dale: bobby sherman is really a horrible singer. he just had the hair.
	9:39am βrian: I'd rather have a Partridge Bus lunch box.
	👻 9:41am Brian in UK: Post-it Note. LIVE
	9:41am dale: 'three ring binder' 'book cover' no. 2 ticonderoga' 'lunch ticket'
	9:42am The Oscar: I've spent much of my life in record stores, and I never noticed that about the album titles. My mind is blown.
	9:43am The Oscar: Also recently caught a PF rerun recently in one of my favorite '60s/'70s TV episode genres: the main characters meet a "wacky" underground newspaper reporter/editor.
	👻 9:43am Brian in UK: A Mercury Rev Song?
	9:44am Davee: I enjoyed the tribute Joe, it brought back a lot of memories!
	9:44am βrian: I think post-it notes weren't really around yet.
	9:45am Davee: How about electric pencil sharpeners?
	9:45am Joe McG: @Brian: Good ear! Yes, they opened their Monty Hall show with this one. The new LP is all covers by people like Yes, Dylan, and Mink deVille.
	9:46am Joe McG: @Davee: Glad you enjoyed it! It felt good to hear some songs. Hope anyone who hates the Partridges made it through intact.
	9:50am annie: sorry to be so late.... i should have stayed in instead of going down for coffee...
	9:52am Mikey_B: All hits so far, as usual.
	9:54am Joe McG: @Mikey: I try to get to all the favorites. :) @annie: Many partridges were in the pear tree while you were away.
	👻 9:54am TristaC.HerLadyCaveBrat: tuned in!
	9:58am annie: i see that... maybe i'll hit that part up later for a dash of schmaltz
	9:58am SeanG: hi Trista! :-D
	10:00am pantz: WFMU is one of the only places that pumpkin spice is not added this month.
	10:01am Brendan: @Joe @People, hi. Nice song
	10:08am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe and all! Back to the grindstone…
	10:08am Schnipp: Everlys redux
	10:08am Itzall Ablurr: 'Morning Joe, 'morning good people of the air and cybersphere. Great set this morning, as per usual. BTW, what exactly IS "car wash hair"? Inquiring "minds"...
	10:10am steveo: i pictured the long felt-like strips that wiggle around and suds up the car as it goes through the wash
	10:10am Peter 64t: Oh man! that Cut Worms sure sounds nice
	10:12am Itzall Ablurr: steveo, that sounds plausible, and probably quite relaxing!
	10:12am Dennis Diken: howdy Joe!
	👻 10:12am Brian in UK: Joe too late for Fall in Philadelphia. This is a great debut album.
	10:13am Itzall Ablurr: Wasn't "hole Oates" Daryll's petname for his "partner"?!?
	10:13am Brendan: Tragic ballads with bizarre deaths are the best
	10:17am queems: great show today, joe! excellent autumn driving music!
	10:18am Joe McG: @queems: Wow, I couldn't strive for anything better. Thanks!
	10:18am melinda: Great set.
	10:19am queems: you're very welcome! thank you!!
	10:19am Schnipp: You mean the Grass Roots recorded something other than Live for Today?
	10:19am ChrisB.: Wow, first few bars of this Grass Roots, thought it was a John Doe solo outing.
	10:20am Krys O.: Oh, the Grass Roots had a really deep catalog. So good.
	10:20am Dennis Diken: "I Can't Help But Wonder, Elizabeth" - wow, one of my favorite tunes ever. PF Slaon's (the writer) version (same basic track as Grass Roots) is even more soulful. great nonetheless!
	👻 10:21am TristaC.HerLadyCaveBrat: Yay! Thanks Joe!
	10:21am Joe McG: @Dennis: P.F. Sloan was such a great writer!
	10:23am steveo: love the bendy guitar
	10:26am βrian: That sounds like something Gumby would play.
	10:27am Schnipp: What was donkey’s name?
	👻 10:28am Brian in UK: Joe used to have Raised On Records by P.F. Sloan, came out around '72. Where is it now?
	10:28am βrian: Pokey the pony?
	👻 10:29am Brian in UK: Think it never has come out on CD.
	10:31am Brendan: Tarnation was one ofYosemite Sam’s cusswords
	10:31am Joe McG: @Brian: I think it's in your shed.
	10:32am coelacanth∅: good morning Joe and all
	10:32am Davee: SINGLES!!!!
	👻 10:33am Brian in UK: Joe, I can remember the day I bought it, on the way home my motorcycle ran out of petrol and I had to push it with the record under my jacket to the nearest petrol station. It survived.
	10:36am melinda: Good covers aren't a disappointment.
	10:37am medson: Hey Joe. Been tuned in no chance to comment. A little late but thanks for the David Cassidy tribute. I agree what you said about the show being part of your childhood. One of my favs was when Danny was being chased by the Mob. "Vic Tayback"
	10:37am rw: The vocalist on that Tarnation track reminded me at moments of Phil Ochs with her vibrato.
	10:37am Greg from ZONE 5: Hmm. Probably either Fakebook or Fuckbook.
	10:37am pantz: Under The Covers with Susanna Hoffs and Matthew Sweet is a great cover album.
	10:38am Joe McG: @medson: A great one! I generally loved the interaction between Ruben Kincaid and Danny Partridge. @Greg: Excellent choices! @pantz: Agree, I like the first one a lot. @melinda: You're so right!
	10:40am The Oscar: Call me crazy, but I actually kind of loved the covers album Danzig put out a couple years back. Some of it was just dumb hard rock covers, but the oldies he does are pretty great, and he opens with a couple of obscure biker movie themes which are legitimately fantastic.
	10:40am Joe McG: Surfer Blood has a covers album in our new bin right now.
	10:41am melinda: I like Fakebook too.
	10:42am The Oscar: Speaking of covers, Combustible Edison does a great version of this one.
	10:43am Uncle Michael: Joe, this has been an outstanding show, even by your normally sky-high standard.
	10:43am Joe McG: Thanks so much, Uncle Michael! @Oscar: I like the Senor Coconut album of Kraftwerk covers even though it's silly.
	10:45am dale: love this orbison with it's chord progressions - it's like a cheery 'it's over'
	10:45am Uncle Michael: Senior Coconut's "Showroom Dummies" outshines the original!
	10:47am dale: sounds of mods working the cowsills vibe very hard.
	👻 10:48am Hughie Considine: @RW, that's Paula Frazer, who did a fine vocal on Cornershop's "Good to Be on the Road Back Home Again." Haunting voice.
	10:48am pantz: This has a Free Design feel.
	10:49am pantz: Della! Who wouldn't want Della as a guardian angel?
	10:49am βrian: Buenos días, Tio Miguel.
	10:51am steveo: is it me or does that distorted guitar sound like a catfight?
	10:52am steveo: (talking about della reese)
	10:53am Joe McG: @steveo: Whatever it is, it sounds amazing!
	10:54am steveo: yep!
	10:54am steveo: could you play a clunker next so I can get up and get some tea? ;)
	10:55am Joe McG: @steveo: Ha ha! You might hate the next one.
	10:55am Brendan: Rip Della and Mel
	10:56am rw: Thanks Hughie! Haunting is a good description. I'll keep her on my radar.
	10:57am steveo: dang; sorry, I like it too...
	10:59am Joe McG: I support rhyming "Rooga" and "lose-a."
	10:59am Aaron Working In Newark: Jags
	11:00am Krys O.: Wow! This Jags song brings me back to high school!
	11:00am SueAdynamo: sounds like a cross between Elvis Costello and Weird Al
	11:01am fdny john: oh man! the jags! saw em at bottom line in like 78 i think. great pop song.
	11:01am βrian: @SueA: Most definitely!
	11:01am Mark in Toronto: You couldn't write a better imitation Costello song if you tried.
	11:01am Henry: @Sue... nailed it
	11:02am Greg from ZONE 5: Writing your number on people: Another lost art replaced by the smartphone.
	11:02am The Oscar: Oh man, I think I have this on some comp or another (maybe one of the Rhino DIY albums?). You could make a pretty great album of just fake Elvis Costellos.
	11:02am Itzall Ablurr: Any Trouble.
	👻 11:03am Brian in UK: They still stamp you hand at small gigs over here.
	11:03am βrian: Then there's writing the number in mirror script on one's back.
	11:04am Mark in Toronto: Hey fellow Canadians, how about the Diodes? The Poles? Blue Rodeo?
	11:05am βrian: @BUK: What, no micro-chip in the forearm yet?
	11:05am pantz: Bananarama much?
	👻 11:06am Brian in UK: Bananarama have reformed with all three. @βrian no tattooed on the back of the neck.
	👻 11:08am Brian in UK: 'Sounds' has long gone.
	11:16am Joe McG: Has Bananarama really reformed? That's exciting to me!
	11:20am Brendan: Nice tongue solo
	11:22am glenn: the best thing about the poles was doug pringle, who was in syrinx prior.
	11:22am common: hello, Joe! all
	11:24am Joe McG: @Brendan: The tongue man is named Reality "D" Blipcrotch. I don't kid.
	11:24am glenn: but here's a good photo of them. ccca.concordia.ca...
	11:25am pantz: Reality Blipcrotch?! Was he a Charles Dickens character?
	11:27am Joe McG: @pantz: If Dickens had written in 1969, he would've been there!
	11:32am Mark in Toronto: @Glenn: CN Tower was an amazing single. They did a nice live set once on CFNY that i still own the cassette of. Syrinx were good - didn't they provide the theme to a CTV show?
	11:32am Greg from ZONE 5: LOL
	11:33am common: combined with that drumming!
	11:33am Itzall Ablurr: In fairness, he was wearing mittens.
	11:33am rbrt: lol
	11:33am steveo: nice tone though :)
	11:33am Dominick: Better than me. But yes, "Canyons of Your Mind" level
	11:34am V Priceless: what it lacked in skill it made up for in fearlessness!
	11:34am Joe McG: @Itzall: Ha ha ha! It was chilly in that cavern!
	11:35am Brendan: I like that loose style. He definitely wasn’t afraid of making mistakes.
	11:36am glenn: yes. the show was here come the 70's. the song was tillicum.
	11:36am Velvet Frog: I'm hearing some Dream Weaver up in this piece.
	11:38am Mark in Toronto: @Glenn: Are you in Toronto?
	11:41am βrian: Jane Birken?
	11:42am Joe McG: @Brian: Yeppers!
	11:43am βrian: Je swoon!
	11:44am glenn: yep. little malta represent.
	11:45am pantz: Whoa! These guitar licks could easily be from the 60's. This was produced in 2017?
	11:46am pantz: Oh. I see it was from 1969.
	11:46am Mark in Toronto: @Glenn: Is that Dundas St W./The Junction?
	11:47am glenn: yes. i felt that little malta sounded more suave.
	11:47am Sem: Goodbye Joe me gotta go, me oh my oh Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou My Yvonne the sweetest one, me oh my oh Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou. From the heart of Acadie, from whence those who would be called Cajuns were expelled in 1755 ( Le Grand Dérangement), and in their expulsion created an entirely original culture out in the swamps and bayous, this is goodbye for now, Joe, and McGaskoes. Later.
	11:48am Mark in Toronto: @Glenn: I'd have to call myself Oakwood Village!
	11:48am andrew: "tonight on as it happens..."
	11:48am Joe stalvey: After this break, a story about a brave family in Nunavut. Stay with us, eh?
	11:48am glenn: now that's suave.
	11:49am βrian: Why am I thinking of talk radio?
	11:49am βrian: @Joe: Ah yes, of course.
	11:49am Mark in Toronto: Do they still make Suave shampoo?
	11:49am glenn: because curried soul the theme for as it happens.
	11:50am Joe McG: @andrew/JoeStalvey: Ha ha ha!
	11:50am coelacanth∅: tchau Sem
	11:51am glenn: hmmm. google says yes to the suave.
	11:51am βrian: And I always here Carol Off as Carl Orff.
	11:52am Mark in Toronto: Nice Joe. Please dig up Swingin' Shepherd Blues.
	11:53am glenn: hee hee. awesome concrete boner. www.thelastpogo.net...
	11:56am Joe McG: Running out of time! Thanks for listening and commenting, everyone. Happy December!
	11:56am Mick: Yet another in a seemingly endless stream of great shows - thanks Joe!
	11:57am Mark in Toronto: Glenn: I saw that documentary at a theatre, and bought the DVD at Soundscapes. Some funny footage of S. Leckie.
	11:57am pantz: Excellent show, Joe! I think I burned off my Thanksgiving lbs from the foot tapping, this morning.
	11:58am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, Joey!
