WFMU: Tony Coulter: Playlist from June 18, 2019

Listener comments!
	11:59am Tony Coulter: Hello, all!
	11:59am Tony Coulter: FYI: The "God Is Bogus" tape was released just as you see it in the playlist pic -- it never had a cover. See here for an interesting article about the guy behind the tape: www.friendsofbigshout.com...
	🥁 12:00pm listener james from westwood: Howdy, Tony and all!!
	🥁 12:01pm listener james from westwood: Ooh, Newark underground!
	12:01pm Tony Coulter: Also: Can anyone ID today's LP-under-the-cassettes? If you know it, that should be easy to do.
	12:01pm Rich in Washington: Howdy doody, Tony! Hi everyboody!
	12:02pm Tony Coulter: Heya, James and Rich!
	12:02pm Rich in Washington: god is not only bogus, he's a real dickweed.
	12:02pm ?: Hi!Is this Kurt Weil on the picture?
	12:03pm Dean: It resembles the Kurt Weill tribute, Lost in the Stars. Not exactly, though.
	12:03pm Tony Coulter: @ James: Newark, Delaware! Home of Joe Biden
	🥁 12:03pm Yvang: It was me asking about KW...Hi!
	12:03pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Dean & ? Not Kurt Weill, no....
	12:04pm Dean: Thomas Dolby? Sergei Prokofiev?
	12:05pm Dean: Anyway, my son is in your neck of the woods, Tony, hanging out with his cousins.
	12:07pm Tony Coulter: Your son is in my neck? No wonder it's feeling stiff today.
	12:08pm Kay: A reverse image search says it might be designed by Neville Brody, but I gave up after 75 album covers or so.
	12:09pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Kay! The mystery LP is a 1983 comp of mostly British industrial outfits. It's on Fetish Records.
	12:10pm Tony Coulter: (which is pretty much giving it away)
	🥁 12:11pm Yvang: with some Throbbing Gristle on it
	🥁 12:11pm listener james from westwood: IIRC they pronounce it New-ark, vs New-[schwa]rk, in Biden country, but I could be wrong!
	12:11pm Sem: Thiss must be the place. Hello, Mr. Tony, hissterical and/or hisstorical Tony fans, and all.
	12:11pm JtotheK: Warm & Kind Salutations to you Tony, and everyone!
	12:12pm Kay: I wouldn't have guessed if I had found it through those means, but thought you'd appreciate the "clue" for what it's worth.
	12:12pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Yvang, Sem, and JtotheK!! Yvang, you are right about the throbbing ... and the gristle.
	12:14pm Tony Coulter: @ James: I think you may be right about the Delaware-ese pronunciation of Newark ... but somehow I can't get my mouth to say it that way.
	12:15pm Tony Coulter: I love this sort of extreme channel separation. It's like getting two albums for the price of one.
	12:18pm Tony Coulter: Well, since no one except Yvang seems to know what today's mystery LP is, I'll do the big reveal. It's "The Last Testament": www.discogs.com...
	12:19pm Rich in Washington: How many records/tapes have exploited that one-track-per-channel thing?
	12:19pm Kay: An article on Neville Brody and Fetish Records: www.johncoulthart.com...
	12:20pm Dean: I probably should have kept those 23 Skidoo records.
	12:21pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, Kay!
	12:22pm Rich in Washington: There was a weird compact cassette format in the 80s, up until the digital era, where something like four hours of (monophonic) music could be wrung out of a C90 cassette. It was for background music for businesses and it utilized all four tracks of a plain cassette, with the player going forwards and backwards, alternately.
	12:22pm Kay: At the bottom of the article is The Last Testament review by critic/writer Jon Savage.
	12:23pm Kay: (sorry, sleeve notes)
	12:24pm Tony Coulter: @ Rich: Haven't heard of that format! Seems likely that things must have gone wrong at times
	12:27pm Rich in Washington: I found one of the machines at a junk store and nearly bought it after doing some research, but then realized I don't use or take adequate care of the tape machines I have now, so didn't buy it.
	12:29pm Rich in Washington: the only record that immediately comes to mind, doing that one track per channel thing, is Tucson Arizona Low Fi band Doo Rag, who pressed a single called Two Tones To Tune.
	12:30pm Kay: Echoplex is another weird tape machine, designed for performance not playback. Article: 3 Modern Tape Machines that Beat the Vintage Ones reverb.com...
	12:34pm Kay: Last article was modern machines. As for vintage: reverb.com...
	12:36pm Tony Coulter: This tape has switched to non-Moaners stuff -- other bands from Newark, Delaware. The non-Moaners tracks are announced at the end of the side
	12:37pm chresti: Hello!
	12:37pm Tony Coulter: Hey there, chresti!
	12:53pm Rich in Washington: I love the spoken liner notes!
	12:56pm Tony Coulter: Except, he says nothing about the Moaners tracks, which make up most of the tape! (And which are by far the best stuff, to my ears, anyway.)
	1:08pm Tony Coulter: I'm looking at the picture of the tape on now, and am wondering: What's a "crolyn"? Apparently this tape has 500 of them.
	🥁 1:09pm listener james from westwood: Current track is quite nice by way of lost 80s-ness.
	1:12pm Tony Coulter: RE "Crolyn": Found a mention in a 1971 article from Chemical and Engineering News: "Tapes based on Du Pont's Crolyn chromium dioxide magnetic tape technology seem poised to claim a substantial portion of the rapidly growing market for high-performance audio cassettes, which offer better frequency response, greater dynamic range, and higher signal-to-noise ratio." The revolution that never happened?
	1:12pm coelacanth∅: greetings Tony & hissters
	1:13pm Tony Coulter: Greets, coel!
	1:36pm Ike: Even though I grew up near Delaware, it's still difficult to believe that anybody pronounces it New Ark. (I wasn't near that part of Delaware, so I rarely, if ever, heard anybody say it out loud.)
	1:37pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Ike! Yeah: I just can't pronounce it that way!
	1:38pm coelacanth∅: i've never heard newark, delaware pronounced any way but "new-ark". my first (sort of) girlfriend went to school there.
	1:47pm Tony Coulter: To be fair, I guess "New Urk" is a bit weird as a pronunciation
	1:53pm Michael 98145: :) this
	1:54pm Tony Coulter: Hey, hey, hey, Mr. 98145!
	1:55pm Michael 98145: drizzly up here today
	1:58pm Rich in Washington: I wonder if this guy is friends with Garland Hirschi.
	1:59pm Tony Coulter: The cow guy, you mean? Ha!
	2:00pm coelacanth∅: i confess i'm sea sawing i haven't heard Tamar in a while and she's always good; but i know tape hiss shows aren't archived (and this one's intriguing -because of the artist name and because of the album title)
	2:04pm Tony Coulter: Well, all I can say about that is that Tamar is always good
	2:05pm Tony Coulter: Took her (and Rich Hazelton) record shopping here in Portland a couple of years back.
	🥁 2:05pm listener james from westwood: I can get behind this "Dogs have always been my friends" philosophy.
	2:06pm Rich in Washington: That's really cool!
	2:06pm coelacanth∅: so's Tony, Tony. ...and i liked that moaners tape.
	2:11pm coelacanth∅: someone on Tamar's comment board confessed a (passed?) crush on her. i too had a crush on her in the 90s, via radio voice, pre-internet. i called the station sometimes, especially in the middle of the night when the hosts had no way of knowing if anyone's out there listening. i told her she had a laugh in her voice that made me happy. then i met Tamar and Rich together whilst volunteering at a record fair and that was the end of that! (especially since i liked Rich too...as a radio voice)
	2:12pm coelacanth∅: (...i mean -as a person, on the radio...)
	2:20pm Rich in Washington: before I started doing radio at a station, I once got to meet a bunch of the DJs I'd been listening for years at an event. I told one of the female hosts of a show I'd really like that I had lots of tape recordings of her show and her reaction was a sort of exaggerated horror. She sort of sunk back behind the table where the station was tabling. A few years later, after I started DJing there and we became friends, she told me her reaction was based on the many years of weird stalkery callers, one notable one was a guy who listened to her show from prison, who would frequently call her and update her on his parole status. His calls got increasingly creepier until he finally got released. Thankfully, he seemed to have moved on to other things, as she never heard from him again, but I think my admission that I taped her show (I taped lots of other people's radio shows too) sort of triggered her or she thought I might be that guy.
	2:22pm Rich in Washington: This tape is really cool!
	2:24pm Webhamster Henry: Some of the erstwhile WFMU DJs were more easy to run into than others.Tony lived in Park Slope, so it wasn't unusual to run into him! But others were more mysterious, and you had to catch fleeting glimpses of them at record fairs etc.
	2:26pm Tony Coulter: Henry! Heya!
	2:29pm Tony Coulter: Yes, I am a perambulator too.
	2:30pm Rich in Washington: I haven't gotten any stalkers yet but I did once have someone threaten to burn the station down because I played Eugene Chadbourne massacring Beatles songs.
	2:30pm Rich in Washington: OMG, this is brilliant!
	2:31pm Rich in Washington: A Tom Waits parody in '85 was both touche brilliant in its relative obscurity, but also wonderfully blasphemous.
	2:31pm Tony Coulter: I had a weird female stalker years ago -- but she sent me some very interesting tapes, so it all worked out well.
	2:36pm Rich in Washington: I once showed up to do my show at 9:30 or so and there was this young hippie dude sitting in the foyer table area. He had let himself in during business hours and just sort of hung out in the station until I showed up. He wanted to give me a CD of his music/art. He was really sheepish and just took off as soon as he gave it to me. It was actually pretty amusing. A collection of cassette tape jerk experiments. I played it on subsequent shows. His included photocopied notes didn't include any contact info of any kind and the notes didn't exactly make sense, trackwise. I should dig it up. It was pretty weird.
	2:41pm coelacanth∅: i'm reasonably positive i never creeped anyone out by calling the station, thankfully! one female radio host (off the schedule at the moment) i used to call fairly often and we'd talk until she had to do a mic break. i told her about a hot chocolate recipe i made up and she said i should come over and make some for her. foolish me didn't do it.
	2:42pm coelacanth∅: ... Tony, play "misty" for me
	2:42pm chresti: Great stuff! Getting ready to go visit friends up near Ojai
	2:43pm chresti: I just want to be friends, Tony//
	2:44pm Tony Coulter: Ha!
	2:44pm coelacanth∅: i might have cassette recordings of threatening phone calls wfmu hosts aired in the 80s. 'take me a while to find.
	2:45pm Michael 98145: happy almost-Solstice, everyone
	🥁 2:45pm Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Howdy, all!
	2:46pm Rich in Washington: someone called the station once and accused all of us late night DJs of being followers of Aleister Crowley because we liked to torment people and drive them crazy with insane screaming and caterwauling. It was on a daytime talk radio show and of course I recorded it and regularly play it on my show.
	2:46pm Rich in Washington: Granny!
	2:46pm Webhamster Henry: I used to call in, but since the chat board is here, it's a better experience fo me!
	2:46pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Spicy T!
	2:47pm Webhamster Henry: This tape is both timeless and 1985ish.
	2:49pm coelacanth∅: i used to call Stephan, who you might know, Henry. i had no idea what he looked like but i worked at the high falls food co-op for a minute and he came in while i was playing a tape by medium medium and we got talking. turns out we have mutual friends.
	2:50pm coelacanth∅: (Stephan of belly of the beast)
	2:51pm Webhamster Henry: Yeah, Stephan was in my Gamelan group last year, but fatherhood has changed his schedule.
	2:53pm Rich in Washington: That Four Track Mind tape was wonderful. I'd like to hear more of their stuff. Our friend Toby says they were part of the crew that hung out on Over The Edge back in the day.
	2:55pm Tony Coulter: @ Rich: They have at least one more tape. Hopefully, I'll find that one someday. I suspected there might be an Over the Edge connection!
	2:56pm JtotheK: enjoyed the show, Tony - thanks for the tunes!
	2:56pm David D: Hey Tony and everyone - here's the link for the next four hours on the stream. Hope you can join me: wfmu.org...
	🥁 2:57pm Yvang: An actual mashup between Debussy and Beefheart has still yet to be made
	2:57pm Tony Coulter: Hey, David! Thanks for the link!!
	2:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tony! take care
	🥁 2:58pm Yvang: But anyway I loved this Subelecktrick tape
	2:59pm coelacanth∅: Yvang maybe early Eno and Caruso will do?
	2:59pm Tony Coulter: Thanks for listening, everyone! See you in two weeks!
	2:59pm Rich in Washington: Great show today, Tony! Thanks!
	🥁 2:59pm Yvang: Thanks Tony!
