	9:05am love2laf: Boing boing! Ready for the sounds Joe, this is sounding like the perfect kick off song to ease into Monday. Which single file will Mellencamp Monday showcase this week? Good morning yipsters, hope the day is treating you gently.

	9:06am Harry Corvair: Caught last week’s show in the archives, listened and relistened to this sequence many times: Bruce Springsteen, State Trooper Suicide, Rocket U.S.A. (a stated influence on "Nebraska"'s sound and subject matter) Bruce Springsteen, Born in the U.S.A. (recorded same time as "Nebraska") Was in 6th grade when Nebraska came out, checked out LP from public library. Been listening to it since. Hearing the influence of Suicide was a revelation.

	9:26am Brendan: Are you pulling my bat chain?
	9:26am Asheville Jon: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:24 yep. i guess that "sound" maybe carried over a bit? who knows. but when i heard that, i thought 'Beefheart inspired"
	9:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Star Hill Song" by "Meg Baird" Hope to see some of you tomorrow at Union Pool for this show! TDK60, we should make a plan!
	9:28am Joe McG: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:26 You might be showing up there a night early, Handy!

Don’t think I’ve ever used that typing, though did attend one of its universities) morning before it gets too hot. Finishing up the coffee/chicory aeropress and the mango/banana/peanut butter smoothie to go along with it for breakfast. Hope you’re all doing well, good people.
	9:29am Handy Haversack: ↳ Joe McG @9:28 This is an excellent point. I'm still on Philadelphia time, it seems. OK, I'll delay until Wednesday on the advice of my disk jockey.
	9:30am love2laf: ↳ Zinn The Mood @9:29 That sounds like a fantastic way to start the day, enjoy the sunshine, it's been far too absent this spring.

	9:54am TDK60: ↳ chresti @9:48 Hola chresti. I just noticed after some weeks that Rob W.'s Transpacific Sound Paradise show has ceased. Any idea why?
	9:57am Handy Haversack: ↳ TDK60 @9:54 Huh. We have been out and about the past several Saturdays. Looks like it's been Discobog the past two weeks. But only one full TPSP show since Marathon, it looks like. I hope Rob is well.
	9:57am Aaron Working In Newark: Good Morning Joe!
	9:59am chresti: Hi TDK60- only know that DJ saltzshaker is filling in for him for the rest of the season- so maybe he’ll be back in June?
	10:00am Pax: @Joe McG: you might want to doubly consider what records you're going to get rid of. Because How many records you've gotten rid of in the past and regretted it later. And got busy trying to retain new used copies.
	10:00am chresti: *hope he’s ok
	10:01am love2laf: ↳ TDK60 @9:54 Why not reach out through his profile and check in? Whatever the reason, he's going to be happy to hear he is missed by so many listeners.
	10:02am Joe McG: ↳ Pax @10:00 I've only re-bought about 5 or so records over the years that I got rid of, so I'm pretty good about that!
	10:03am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning Joe & all!
	10:04am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "Matilda" by "Harry Belafonte" Didn't realize Harry Belafonte covered Allan Sherman.
	10:04am G: Haven't heard this one since about 1970.
	10:04am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Matilda" by "Harry Belafonte" We sang this in elementary school music classes in the early 70s. ♥
	10:05am clarke: ↳ G @10:04 tough series for O's... dangit!
	10:05am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Matilda" by "Harry Belafonte" This song always makes me think of my 1983 school trip to Cancun (a band on the beach played it).
	10:05am Blacktooth: Poor Henry getting the game run on him. Go, Matilda! Go!
	10:06am Pax: ↳ Joe McG @10:02 @Joe McG: That's better than pretty good, that's actually dang excellent.
	10:07am G: ↳ clarke @10:05 We were one play each game from sweeping them. Oh well. Baseball... Now we have the last-year All Star game starting pitcher to face tonight (a Baltimore native). Ugh...
	10:08am clarke: ↳ G @10:07 yeah, i caught most of that action and we looked great on friday.
	10:09am clarke: ↳ G @10:07 how was jazzfest?
	10:09am The Oscar: Hard not to think of Stan Freberg when you get to the bit about the tarantula.
	👻 10:10am Yetz: ↳ Song: "Banana Boat Song" by "George Symonette & His Goom... I never thought about this before, but how come they are picking bananas at night?
	10:11am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:31 Years ago I was working on a GOT MILK commercial. The prop master asked me to get him something from his van. He had the doors open and was playing A Meeting By The River by Ry Cooder and Vishwa Mohan Bhatt. I told him I had seen Bhatt do a show at the Harrick Chapel. He told me he use to be Ry Cooders road road manager. "How did that happen?" I asked. "I had been Captain Beefhearts road manager." It's a long story and I'm having trouble typing, so I'll tell you in pieces.
	👻 10:11am tim from washington: Hey Joe and everyone! Yesterday when I was the grocery store I heard John Courgar Mellencamp's Cherry Bomb over the store's PA. I got really confused for a second and thought it was Monday moning. ;)
	10:12am Pax: Just don't dare to tally me banana. Sorry, Couldn't resist.
	10:12am Spikey BXL: Hey Joe, best from Belgium. Lovely mango!
	👻 10:13am Hughie Considine: In Mellencamp-related news, Jon Wurster's rocknroll weirdness Instagram account today features an old ad for a bill featuring the Jam with opening act Johnny Cougar.
	10:13am Sybil: You might be able to make me miss Harry more, but don’t go there. It won’t end well.
	10:14am TDK60: ↳ Yetz @10:10 Yetz, I don't think they were picking bananas at night, but loading the fruit onto ships at night.
	10:14am JReganK: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:11 I'll bet being Captain Beefheart's road manager was interesting
	👻 10:14am Yetz: ↳ TDK60 @10:14 I'll buy that
	10:16am Erin in TO: I'm not sure he's really singing about bamboo
	👻 10:16am egould: ↳ Song: "Big Bamboo" by "Lord Creator" This is metaphor.
	10:16am Chris Hiatt: ↳ chresti @10:00 Yeah, me too. This is some news!
	10:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:11 'Meeting By The River' of course happened in SantaBarbara where I lived. A Manager @ a CD store I worked @ is thanked in the notes as a go-for or something. In the Small World Dept.
	10:18am Blacktooth: Eyooooooo
	👻 10:18am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. We have a Bank Holiday over here to 'celebrate' the coronation. Hurrah.
	10:19am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Yetz @10:10 So you and I, as Americans, can have a seemingly endless cheap bananas in large quantities at every little place across the entire country. All this “convenience” and abundance we’ve come to think of, and demand as our birthright, has a heavy burden on others. Back-breaking work through the night, child labor, few safety regulations, little pension to speak of; while the owners use all those stolen profits to get us to look the either way in controlling the media to throw up consistent sensationalism and fear-mongering about anything other than what they’re engaged in. But that’s the entire premise upon which capitalism continues: that you never have to see the destruction and the exploitation. It’s crucial to the corporations that you and I keep silent, and sing the praises of our beloved divinity, capitalism, for guaranteeing access to cheap food and goods. Damn the consequences to the people who literally make it happen.
	10:19am Pax: ↳ Yetz @10:14 You forgot "for a dollar" to finish the sentence.
	10:20am JReganK: ↳ Brian in UK @10:18 Do you guys party over there during "Royal" events?
	10:20am johnk77: great work selecter big bamboo important part of mighty sparrow live shows;>
	10:20am JReganK: ↳ JReganK @10:20 Or is it just a day "off"?
	10:21am JReganK: ↳ johnk77 @10:20 The Mighty Sparrow put out some good stuff!
	10:22am love2laf: ↳ Song: "Mango" by "Eloise Lewis & Her Goombay Trio" What's the note 'equal time' referencing?
	10:22am Greg from ZONE 5: What I like about all these songs is that there is absolutely no other way to interpret the lyrics.
	10:22am Joe McG: ↳ love2laf @10:22 bananas/mangos :)
	10:22am JReganK: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @10:22 Yet, there still clean
	10:23am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Song: "Kokio Ko" by "Barbados Steel Band (Ju-Cee Steel B... This one wins the gold medal here.
	10:23am love2laf: ↳ Joe McG @10:22 You are a funny man, having a chuckle over it now. :)
	10:24am MayJillar: Calypso Mondays should be a thing.
	👻 10:24am Brian in UK: ↳ JReganK @10:20 Some folks do. There were some street parties planned for Saturday but most of the country had rain. I watched the motorcycle racing. There was a concert last night with a rather lacklustre line-up.
	10:25am Erin in TO: Steel drum on a Monday is perfect
	10:25am Edgar from Maine: Do Canadians and Aussies etc. also get the day off?
	10:26am love2laf: ↳ Edgar from Maine @10:25 Not in Canada, but numerous places lit up town halls yesterday to mark the occasion.
	10:27am fred: Good morning Joe and Yipsters
	👻 10:27am Brian in UK: ↳ Edgar from Maine @10:25 Not sure., The Aussies kind of like the Royals but also want separation.
	10:28am mndave: ↳ Song: "Dog Better Than Man" by "Viper" Pretty strong arguments, I must admit
	10:29am clarke: coconuts have lodged a complaint.
	👻 10:29am doctorjazz: Puts me in mind of Irwin:s old Muriel's Treasure segment.
	👻 10:30am Ken From Hyde Park: I'll bet there are a lot of mints preparing new coins replacing the queen with the king.
	10:30am fred: ↳ doctorjazz @10:29 OPI came to my mind too
	10:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Dog Better Than Man" by "Viper" It is a DawgyDay : www.mayanmajix.com... www.azteccalendar.com
	10:33am JReganK: ↳ Brian in UK @10:24 Thanks, for your insight!
	10:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:30 - hence MuffinTar : www.wfmu.org...
	10:34am love2laf: Mellencamp Monday approaches, which will it be this week?
	10:34am Pax: ↳ egould @10:16 It's not difficult to figure out what he metaphor concerning a big bamboo !
	👻 10:35am Brian in UK: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:30 The only mint I can think of is humbug!
	10:36am clarke: fred garvin - private eye
	10:37am fred: ↳ Brian in UK @10:35 "mint" always reminds me of the Monty Python
	10:37am clarke: i saw the other drifters this past weekend - The Continental Drifters - they were great!
	10:38am Joe McG: ↳ clarke @10:37 Wow, they are still together?
	10:39am clarke: ↳ Joe McG @10:38 they re-united for some shows around jazzfest. all showed up and some alumni. twas brilliant.
	10:39am Triple G: It's Cougar Time!
	👻 10:39am tim from washington: Going for the gusto early!
	10:39am Mattynotimes: Great song!
	10:40am Handy Haversack: Couglin'!
	10:40am Jason from Houston: DAMN
	10:40am clarke: couglin!
	👻 10:40am Brian in UK: ↳ fred @10:37 Thanks, Mr Creosote.
	10:40am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "I Need a Lover" by "John Cougar" The Coooog!
	👻 10:41am Yetz: ↳ Song: "I Need a Lover" by "John Cougar" just saying no to this one but i'll be back
	10:41am clarke: your legs are SOOO swollen!
	👻 10:41am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "I Need a Lover" by "John Cougar" It would be funny if he found a lover who was very serious and didn't understand idioms like "hey hit the highway."
	👻 10:42am egould: ↳ Song: "I Need a Lover" by "John Cougar" Power pop.
	👻 10:43am Yetz: ↳ Song: "Anticipation" by "Delta 5" ahhh that's better
	10:43am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "Anticipation" by "Delta 5" Niiiiice...
	10:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @10:40 clarke gets it!
	10:43am Mike Sin: ↳ Song: "I Need a Lover" by "John Cougar" My mind might be a bit hazy at this point, but it seemed like FM radio was split between this original version and the cover by Pat Benatar.
	10:43am Jason from Houston: ↳ Yetz @10:43 So much better.
	10:44am Handy Haversack: ↳ Yetz @10:43 Joe knew the anticipation would make it so much better, Yetz!
	10:44am efd: ↳ Song: "Anticipation" by "Delta 5" This song was stuck in my head all weekend, what the hell Joe?!
	👻 10:44am Hughie Considine: ↳ Mike Sin @10:43 same here. You heard 'em both with frequency.
	10:44am Pax: I do believe his pseudo name was actually, Johnny cougar.
	10:45am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Keep Your Hands to Yourself" by "Georgia Satellites" Wow. Was not expecting. Absolutely inescapable on FM radio when I was in HS in Atlanta.
	10:45am Dean: Cougar changed his name every other Wednesday.
	10:45am Krys O.: ↳ Mike Sin @10:43 Exactly although Cougar's original came out in 1978, but not in the U.S. Benatar's cover came out in 1979.
	10:45am FG: I remember Martha Quinn imitating the singer's voice cracking in the opening line
	👻 10:46am Karl Ward: ↳ Song: "Keep Your Hands to Yourself" by "Georgia Satellites" Not even hugging! The 80s were challenging times.
	👻 10:46am egould: ↳ Song: "Keep Your Hands to Yourself" by "Georgia Satellites" What’s the b-side of this single?
	10:46am FG: Proto-Black Crowes
	10:46am MayJillar: I survived Cougar, but I'm going to have to mute these next three minutes. LOL
	10:46am JReganK: ↳ Dean @10:45 I hope he changed his underwear more often then that
	10:46am Joe McG: ↳ egould @10:46 A good one called "Can't Stand the Pain."
	10:46am Roberto: Damn, I missed the Mellencamp Monday segment.
	10:46am love2laf: This whole set is seamless and perfect, and I'm a hopping and a bopping! Feel like I can almost feel the next choice coming.
	10:47am Will: At some point he was Little Johnny Cougar (he's kinda short).
	10:47am clarke: ↳ egould @10:46 i think Battleship Chains?
	10:47am Joe McG: ↳ efd @10:44 You were anticipating hearing it today!
	👻 10:47am egould: ↳ Joe McG @10:46 Yep. Thanks.
	10:47am FG: Rodney Anonymous from the Dead Milkmen would change his name every time Mellencamp did
	10:48am Dean: I'm not privy to Mr. Cougar's sartorial habits. But we could speculate.
	👻 10:48am tim from washington: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:40 Handy! You're amazing! Joe's premium next year should be a softball jersey with Couglin'! in slanted cursive on the front and McGasko with iron on letter in back!
	10:48am clarke: ↳ clarke @10:47 ah can't stand the pain. right.
	10:48am fred: ↳ Yetz @10:43 I tried a LISP joke a few days ago, but you weren't there. I should learn to read the room
	10:48am Handy Haversack: ↳ tim from washington @10:48 I'm so in.
	10:49am clarke: ↳ tim from washington @10:48 STILL Couglin'!!
	10:49am Joe McG: Mellencamp had horrible managers who made him change his name and he gradually changed it back to his real name as soon as he could. Now he's just "John Mellencamp," his actual name.
	10:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: There's the Pro Camp, the Against Camp ...& here mostly the just plain MellenCamp ...before he was a full Camp he was a mere MellenTent for Malcontents...
	👻 10:49am Karl Ward: ↳ fred @10:48 Lots of Irritating Symbols and Parentheses! (What's not to) love??????????
	10:51am clarke: mark lindsay has some interesting insights on his Underground Garage radio show on weekends.
	10:51am efd: ↳ Joe McG @10:47 ew buoy!
	10:51am love2laf: ↳ Joe McG @10:49 I remember an interview with him where he spoke of how painful it was not to be called by his actual name. Made me realise that the people who are supposed to be looking out for you, might actually just be looking out for themselves.
	10:51am G: ↳ clarke @10:09 Went three days -- two the first weekend, then this past Friday. Wanted to go yesterday, but Mary Ellen had too much work on her plate (yes, on a Sunday)... But three days was good. We usually manage four days every year. Who could do the wear and tear and expense for all seven days? Maybe out of towners here on a big vacation. It's over 200/day for admission and bus, and over 100 now for two people to keep themselves fed. (Because of the general price inflation since 2021, everything is up in price this year.)
	10:53am clarke: ↳ G @10:51 still, if i had a jetpack, i would have been at The Flanlanders closing set, yesterday!! i do not have a jet-pack.
	10:53am Pax: He should have changed his name to chimney cougar. Because he smoked like one. which actually gave him a heart attack or two.
	10:53am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Once in Awhile" by "The Chimes" YAY! Been a long time since I heard this gem.
	10:54am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Once in Awhile" by "The Chimes" I used to listen to Don K. Reed's Doo Wop Shop on WCBS-FM as a kid.
	10:54am clarke: uhh FlaTlanders
	👻 10:55am tim from washington: ↳ Song: "Once in Awhile" by "The Chimes" Ah, this is nice!
	10:55am G: ↳ clarke @10:54 That too :-)
	10:55am clarke: couto and mulligan!
	10:55am G: So asshole is ok with the FCC :-)
	10:56am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Everybody Is an Asshole (To Somebody Sometime)" b... I hope the FuZZZZZ Owl is listening.
	10:56am clarke: it is NOW
	10:57am kAT: This is amazing
	👻 10:57am Brian in UK: ↳ clarke @10:53 I remember seeing the Flatlanders a few years ago in London. The woman next to me talking to her partner could not get over Jimmie Dale Gilmore's voice.
	10:57am Clincher16": It's not one of Carlin's 7
	10:57am clarke: the syn-trombone
	10:57am love2laf: ↳ Song: "Everybody Is an Asshole (To Somebody Sometime)" b... I may take to playing this loudly with the windows down for the rest of my life.
	👻 10:58am Yetz: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:19 I don't even eat bananas, don't look at me
	👻 10:58am tim from washington: My elementary school gym teacher Mr Zybkowski used to tell us to sit on our dupas.
	10:58am clarke: ↳ Brian in UK @10:57 i've seen them several times, but missed yesterday. a friend sent me a nice photo, though.
	10:58am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Brian in UK @10:57 Mark it 8, Dude!
	10:58am Juli: I buy this 46 dollar foundation make up and yesterday their Instagram post was of some horrible sounding girl yelling "What world do you live in? I don't need FRIENDS." I found it sad lol:::
	10:58am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Everybody Is an Asshole (To Somebody Sometime)" b... He's not wrong.
	10:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Everybody Is an Asshole (To Somebody Sometime)" b... Where you reckon this crew hailed from ?
	10:59am Pax: A dirty nasty unwiped one !
	10:59am Juli: The girls horrid voice wasn't even cute haha
	10:59am Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @10:58 I'm sorry, Smokey, you were over the line.
	10:59am clarke: OVER THE LINE!!!
	10:59am efd: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:59 Whitman Massachusetts, it appears?!
	10:59am G: EAS experimental music.
	11:00am Handy Haversack: I am alerted.
	11:00am Dean: "Arschloch"...a tip of the hat to Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., I'll guess.
	11:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & is it, in fact, 'everybody's got one' that they're singing on 'I Am The Walrus'...
	11:00am Borg9: And they all smell
	👻 11:00am Yetz: according to www.discogs.com... it was recorded at Ramada Inn, Porsmouth, R.I.
	11:00am kAT: ↳ love2laf @10:57 My thoughts exactly

	11:03am The Oscar: Fond memories of my college radio station manager coming in during one of my mic breaks and having to silently ask her if I could say "Rembrandt Pussyhorse" on air.
	👻 11:03am tim from washington: Double your Mellencamp, Joe. Just play the flipside and you got more weeks.

	11:04am Acid Cazh: My wife and I saw Country Westerns at Union Pool in Brooklyn on Friday, and it was PHENOMENAL
	11:04am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:03 hydrants beware.
	11:05am Pax: Not to mention Smokey will be in a world of pain if dude marks it 8.
	11:05am clarke: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:04 nice, man!!! i saw 'em in the fall - same review!
	11:05am fred: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:03 So, a regular day at home for you. Or are you still in Philly?
	11:05am Acid Cazh: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:04 The bass/drums are straight up punk rock for about 70% of the set. Full disclosure: I'm friends with Joey Plunket, the singer. But I've always considered him one of the best songwriters I've ever personally met/hung out with/played music with.
	11:06am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:04 Oh, man, nice. I'm jealous. We were out of town this weekend. I saw them last time they were in town, and Union Pool had had that fire so they played at Harefiled Road, and I was standing about two feet away. That was great. Wish we'd been able to see them this time. But we did manage to catch some live music in Philly Sat. night, which was great. Back home, fred, as of yesterday afternoon!
	11:06am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:05 I think he used to share a practice space in Brooklyn with a friend's band years ago.
	11:06am clarke: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:05 am, as well, friends with joseph, and drummed with him on a tour long ago.
	11:08am Acid Cazh: ↳ clarke @11:06 Nice, which tour / band? We lived in a weird basement together in Williamsburg c.a. 2007 / 2008 when he was in The Weight. Played a lot of shows together back then.
	11:09am Pax: But what about the TOE ?
	11:09am clarke: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:08 it was a tour surrounding playing at SXSW - so all texas dates (and one OK) - circa 2004'ish??
	11:09am clarke: i can get you a toe, dude.
	👻 11:10am Brian in UK: Joe. Joboxers never really cut it. Apart from the single. You win some you lose some.
	11:10am StringOFperils: Pub Rock's last gasp?
	👻 11:10am tim from washington: ↳ Song: "Just Got Lucky" by "JoBoxers" I remember this video from MTV. That's too bad the album's a dud. Good song.
	11:11am Acid Cazh: ↳ clarke @11:09 Must've been fun. That was a year, maybe two years before I met him. I think we met in 2005 or so but I really remember hanging out with him starting summer of 2006, we both bartended at Clem's in Williamsburg. Funny he put the street sign outside of Clem's on the cover of the second Country Westerns album.
	👻 11:11am yerfriendpaul: Joe - I still remember your spring cleaning last year and the sadness I felt when you said goodbye to Townshend’s White City. Ha ha

	11:11am PKNY: ↳ Song: "Just Got Lucky" by "JoBoxers" I remember this song, but had no idea who the artist.
	11:11am Pax: But it had green nail polish on it !
	11:11am Joe McG: ↳ yerfriendpaul @11:11 Ha ha! Hopefully there won't be many this time that will make you sad!
	11:11am Juli: I guess Lady Psychos shouldn't bother me lol
	11:12am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Just Got Lucky" by "JoBoxers" I remember hearing this on on the radio a lot when I was youth. Never knew who did it, always assumed it was Joe Jackson!
	11:12am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Just Got Lucky" by "JoBoxers" I probably heard other songs by JoBoxers, but they never stuck like this one.
	11:12am clarke: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:11 oh we had a BLAST!! it was a fun tour. joe was living in athens at the time.
	11:12am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Just Got Lucky" by "JoBoxers" That crucial Fake JoeJackson subgenre ?...

	11:13am joe mulligan: ↳ Song: "Everybody Is an Asshole (To Somebody Sometime)" b... never heard of these guys!
	11:14am PKNY: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:12 For whatever reason I was thinking the English Beat, but Joe Jackson is definitely more appropriate. That singer's JJ is on par with John Caferty's Springsteen.
	11:14am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Just Got Lucky" by "JoBoxers" I never paid much attention to them. This is great, though yes, it's definitely fake Joe Jackson.
	11:14am rich the greeb: @revolution I was gonna say Costello wannabe also rans

	11:18am PJ: This Syd Straw sounds a bit like Westerberg, but I guess it's Holsapple.
	11:19am Dano59: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:18 lol. the real blues
	👻 11:19am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Think Too Hard" by "Syd Straw" I agree this record didn't fully showcase Syd Straw's uniqueness, but "Future 40s" is pretty phenomenal.
	11:19am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:19 yes!!
	11:19am Joe McG: Yes, this is a great song! And Syd Straw is so cool and so smart, but the LP just doesn't do it for me except for a couple of songs.
	11:19am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Think Too Hard" by "Syd Straw" Do I have this? I don't want to stand up and go look. Acoustic Guitar – Marshall Crenshaw Bass – Tony Levin Drums – Jerry Marotta Electric Guitar – Eric Ambel, Jody Harris
	11:20am Dano59: ↳ clarke @11:18 C. Drifters playing JazzFest. Damn!
	11:20am PJ: Joe McG: all these songs you're playing are good or great. Is it because they are the only good song on the album that you are getting rid of them?
	11:20am Dano59: ↳ Joe McG @11:19 1989 was a nadir year for production values, alas.
	11:20am Ian: Wow. Surprise is a keeper in my collection.
	11:20am clarke: ↳ Joe McG @11:19 i can see that. and yes, McGroovey seems to know his shit!!

	11:49am chris_in_space: Just because I've been quiet on the chat board does not mean that this show didn't provide the Monday comfort I desperately needed. Thanks as always @Joe McG!
	11:50am Roberto: ↳ Song: "American Girl" by "Roger McGuinn" Well, this I did not know about.
	11:50am clarke: i would keep Thunderbyrd
	👻 11:50am tim from washington: ↳ fred @11:49 Hahaha! I'd love that.
	11:50am drr: If I didn't know what McGuinn sounded like I'd think this one someone kinda making fun of Tom Petty.
	11:50am JReganK: ↳ Song: "American Girl" by "Roger McGuinn" Wow!
	11:50am paul: Tom Petty recently received an honorary doctorate degree from the University of Florida.
	11:50am Marie in Queens: ↳ Song: "American Girl" by "Roger McGuinn" Wow, Tom Petty's vocals sound a lot like these
	11:51am Aussie gaz: ↳ Edgar from Maine @10:25 Hey Ed we do get a long week end but at different times in different states,it's off the back of ,what was the Queens birthday. But for me bring on the Republic
	11:51am Joe McG: Petty's original lacks the fab sax solo!
	11:51am chris_in_space: ↳ northguineahills @11:49 Agreed! Very cool version of "American Girl." Love the sax solo. Reminds me of the 70s SNL Band sound.
	11:51am sydnius: ↳ Joe McG @11:51 Your host tonight: Buck Henry!
	11:51am northguineahills: ↳ paul @11:50 and there's a park (behind my old house) now named after him.
	11:51am steveo: surprised that the original was 1976, seems like it should be later to me, but I'm wrong so
	11:51am Pax: @Joe McG: As near as I can tell, there was an exact moment of posting jam between me and another commenter. can those be deleted.
	11:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "American Girl" by "Roger McGuinn" Wish it really soared smooth like BYrdS often do. 'Chestnut Mare' level @ least...
	11:52am Borg9: ↳ Song: "American Girl" by "Roger McGuinn" This is a definite flusher
	11:52am drr: I'm going to counterpoint Michael Shelley and say I like those 70s sax solos. The more it sounds like Saturday Night Live is ending, the better.
	11:52am JReganK: ↳ Marie in Queens @11:50 Never underestimate the Mighty McGuinn
	11:52am Roberto: ↳ sydnius @11:51 Buck was the best.
	11:52am Marie in Queens: ↳ Marie in Queens @11:50 I do think that that is like Tom P's natural style
	11:52am love2laf: Thank you Joe, lovely Monday morning tunes to set us off gently into the new week. Hope everyone has a yip yip week, been a fascinating comments board today.
	👻 11:52am Brian in UK: ↳ Joe McG @11:51 Joe, much as I love McGuinn, I had to sell this one. Liked Rick Vito's guitar work.

	11:57am Marie in Queens: ↳ Marie in Queens @11:56 to ken from HP!
	11:58am Chris Hiatt: ↳ drr @11:52 That was Tom Scott on the saxophone solo, quite possibly the undisputed champion of 1970s sax solos.
	👻 11:58am Brian in UK: ↳ Dano59 @11:56 You bet, where did that come from after 10-15 years. Again picking up good songs.

	9:05am Handy Haversack: Morning, Joe and all. Swale! Possibly not the horse, but a reasonable time to mourn all the horses we kill in our arrogance and casual cruelty.
	9:05am love2laf: Boing boing! Ready for the sounds Joe, this is sounding like the perfect kick off song to ease into Monday. Which single file will Mellencamp Monday showcase this week? Good morning yipsters, hope the day is treating you gently.
	9:06am listener james from westwood: Good sunny Monday, Joe and all!
	9:06am Harry Corvair: Caught last week’s show in the archives, listened and relistened to this sequence many times: Bruce Springsteen, State Trooper Suicide, Rocket U.S.A. (a stated influence on "Nebraska"'s sound and subject matter) Bruce Springsteen, Born in the U.S.A. (recorded same time as "Nebraska") Was in 6th grade when Nebraska came out, checked out LP from public library. Been listening to it since. Hearing the influence of Suicide was a revelation. And the spared down version of Born in the USA something very good. Thanks for another great show, Joe!

	9:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Star Hill Song" by "Meg Baird" Hope to see some of you tomorrow at Union Pool for this show! TDK60, we should make a plan!

Don’t think I’ve ever used that typing, though did attend one of its universities) morning before it gets too hot. Finishing up the coffee/chicory aeropress and the mango/banana/peanut butter smoothie to go along with it for breakfast. Hope you’re all doing well, good people.
	9:29am Handy Haversack: ↳ Joe McG @9:28 This is an excellent point. I'm still on Philadelphia time, it seems. OK, I'll delay until Wednesday on the advice of my disk jockey.
	9:30am love2laf: ↳ Zinn The Mood @9:29 That sounds like a fantastic way to start the day, enjoy the sunshine, it's been far too absent this spring.

	9:57am Handy Haversack: ↳ TDK60 @9:54 Huh. We have been out and about the past several Saturdays. Looks like it's been Discobog the past two weeks. But only one full TPSP show since Marathon, it looks like. I hope Rob is well.
	9:57am Aaron Working In Newark: Good Morning Joe!
	9:59am chresti: Hi TDK60- only know that DJ saltzshaker is filling in for him for the rest of the season- so maybe he’ll be back in June?
	10:00am Pax: @Joe McG: you might want to doubly consider what records you're going to get rid of. Because How many records you've gotten rid of in the past and regretted it later. And got busy trying to retain new used copies.
	10:00am chresti: *hope he’s ok
	10:01am love2laf: ↳ TDK60 @9:54 Why not reach out through his profile and check in? Whatever the reason, he's going to be happy to hear he is missed by so many listeners.
	10:02am Joe McG: ↳ Pax @10:00 I've only re-bought about 5 or so records over the years that I got rid of, so I'm pretty good about that!
	10:03am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning Joe & all!
	10:04am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "Matilda" by "Harry Belafonte" Didn't realize Harry Belafonte covered Allan Sherman.
	10:04am G: Haven't heard this one since about 1970.
	10:04am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Matilda" by "Harry Belafonte" We sang this in elementary school music classes in the early 70s. ♥
	10:05am clarke: ↳ G @10:04 tough series for O's... dangit!
	10:05am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Matilda" by "Harry Belafonte" This song always makes me think of my 1983 school trip to Cancun (a band on the beach played it).
	10:05am Blacktooth: Poor Henry getting the game run on him. Go, Matilda! Go!
	10:06am Pax: ↳ Joe McG @10:02 @Joe McG: That's better than pretty good, that's actually dang excellent.
	10:07am G: ↳ clarke @10:05 We were one play each game from sweeping them. Oh well. Baseball... Now we have the last-year All Star game starting pitcher to face tonight (a Baltimore native). Ugh...
	10:08am clarke: ↳ G @10:07 yeah, i caught most of that action and we looked great on friday.
	10:09am clarke: ↳ G @10:07 how was jazzfest?
	10:09am The Oscar: Hard not to think of Stan Freberg when you get to the bit about the tarantula.
	👻 10:10am Yetz: ↳ Song: "Banana Boat Song" by "George Symonette & His Goom... I never thought about this before, but how come they are picking bananas at night?
	10:11am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:31 Years ago I was working on a GOT MILK commercial. The prop master asked me to get him something from his van. He had the doors open and was playing A Meeting By The River by Ry Cooder and Vishwa Mohan Bhatt. I told him I had seen Bhatt do a show at the Harrick Chapel. He told me he use to be Ry Cooders road road manager. "How did that happen?" I asked. "I had been Captain Beefhearts road manager." It's a long story and I'm having trouble typing, so I'll tell you in pieces.
	👻 10:11am tim from washington: Hey Joe and everyone! Yesterday when I was the grocery store I heard John Courgar Mellencamp's Cherry Bomb over the store's PA. I got really confused for a second and thought it was Monday moning. ;)
	10:12am Pax: Just don't dare to tally me banana. Sorry, Couldn't resist.
	10:12am Spikey BXL: Hey Joe, best from Belgium. Lovely mango!
	👻 10:13am Hughie Considine: In Mellencamp-related news, Jon Wurster's rocknroll weirdness Instagram account today features an old ad for a bill featuring the Jam with opening act Johnny Cougar.
	10:13am Sybil: You might be able to make me miss Harry more, but don’t go there. It won’t end well.
	10:14am TDK60: ↳ Yetz @10:10 Yetz, I don't think they were picking bananas at night, but loading the fruit onto ships at night.
	10:14am JReganK: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:11 I'll bet being Captain Beefheart's road manager was interesting
	👻 10:14am Yetz: ↳ TDK60 @10:14 I'll buy that
	10:16am Erin in TO: I'm not sure he's really singing about bamboo

	10:19am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Yetz @10:10 So you and I, as Americans, can have a seemingly endless cheap bananas in large quantities at every little place across the entire country. All this “convenience” and abundance we’ve come to think of, and demand as our birthright, has a heavy burden on others. Back-breaking work through the night, child labor, few safety regulations, little pension to speak of; while the owners use all those stolen profits to get us to look the either way in controlling the media to throw up consistent sensationalism and fear-mongering about anything other than what they’re engaged in. But that’s the entire premise upon which capitalism continues: that you never have to see the destruction and the exploitation. It’s crucial to the corporations that you and I keep silent, and sing the praises of our beloved divinity, capitalism, for guaranteeing access to cheap food and goods. Damn the consequences to the people who literally make it happen.

	10:45am Dean: Cougar changed his name every other Wednesday.

	10:51am love2laf: ↳ Joe McG @10:49 I remember an interview with him where he spoke of how painful it was not to be called by his actual name. Made me realise that the people who are supposed to be looking out for you, might actually just be looking out for themselves.
	10:51am G: ↳ clarke @10:09 Went three days -- two the first weekend, then this past Friday. Wanted to go yesterday, but Mary Ellen had too much work on her plate (yes, on a Sunday)... But three days was good. We usually manage four days every year. Who could do the wear and tear and expense for all seven days? Maybe out of towners here on a big vacation. It's over 200/day for admission and bus, and over 100 now for two people to keep themselves fed. (Because of the general price inflation since 2021, everything is up in price this year.)
	10:53am clarke: ↳ G @10:51 still, if i had a jetpack, i would have been at The Flanlanders closing set, yesterday!! i do not have a jet-pack.
	10:53am Pax: He should have changed his name to chimney cougar. Because he smoked like one. which actually gave him a heart attack or two.

	11:05am fred: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:03 So, a regular day at home for you. Or are you still in Philly?
	11:05am Acid Cazh: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:04 The bass/drums are straight up punk rock for about 70% of the set. Full disclosure: I'm friends with Joey Plunket, the singer. But I've always considered him one of the best songwriters I've ever personally met/hung out with/played music with.
	11:06am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:04 Oh, man, nice. I'm jealous. We were out of town this weekend. I saw them last time they were in town, and Union Pool had had that fire so they played at Harefiled Road, and I was standing about two feet away. That was great. Wish we'd been able to see them this time. But we did manage to catch some live music in Philly Sat. night, which was great. Back home, fred, as of yesterday afternoon!
	11:06am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:05 I think he used to share a practice space in Brooklyn with a friend's band years ago.
	11:06am clarke: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:05 am, as well, friends with joseph, and drummed with him on a tour long ago.
	11:08am Acid Cazh: ↳ clarke @11:06 Nice, which tour / band? We lived in a weird basement together in Williamsburg c.a. 2007 / 2008 when he was in The Weight. Played a lot of shows together back then.

	11:09am clarke: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:08 it was a tour surrounding playing at SXSW - so all texas dates (and one OK) - circa 2004'ish??
	11:09am clarke: i can get you a toe, dude.
	👻 11:10am Brian in UK: Joe. Joboxers never really cut it. Apart from the single. You win some you lose some.
	11:10am StringOFperils: Pub Rock's last gasp?
	👻 11:10am tim from washington: ↳ Song: "Just Got Lucky" by "JoBoxers" I remember this video from MTV. That's too bad the album's a dud. Good song.
	11:11am Acid Cazh: ↳ clarke @11:09 Must've been fun. That was a year, maybe two years before I met him. I think we met in 2005 or so but I really remember hanging out with him starting summer of 2006, we both bartended at Clem's in Williamsburg. Funny he put the street sign outside of Clem's on the cover of the second Country Westerns album.
	👻 11:11am yerfriendpaul: Joe - I still remember your spring cleaning last year and the sadness I felt when you said goodbye to Townshend’s White City. Ha ha

	11:12am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Just Got Lucky" by "JoBoxers" I remember hearing this on on the radio a lot when I was youth. Never knew who did it, always assumed it was Joe Jackson!
	11:12am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Just Got Lucky" by "JoBoxers" I probably heard other songs by JoBoxers, but they never stuck like this one.
	11:12am clarke: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:11 oh we had a BLAST!! it was a fun tour. joe was living in athens at the time.
	11:12am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Just Got Lucky" by "JoBoxers" That crucial Fake JoeJackson subgenre ?...

	11:14am PKNY: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:12 For whatever reason I was thinking the English Beat, but Joe Jackson is definitely more appropriate. That singer's JJ is on par with John Caferty's Springsteen.
	11:14am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Just Got Lucky" by "JoBoxers" I never paid much attention to them. This is great, though yes, it's definitely fake Joe Jackson.

	11:30am clarke: ↳ tim from washington @11:29 unfortunately, most of the fleetwoods is that weird folk sound, sadly

	11:31am clarke: ↳ Joe McG @11:31 that would mean you'd be getting rid of Like This - no no no!
	11:32am fred: ↳ morphe' @11:26 I've unsuccessfully tried to tell my siblings I don't want a grave or any reminder. It's their choice anyway, point is I won't be there

	11:35am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Theme from "Butterfield 8"" by "David Rose and Hi... I suddenly want to listen to easy listening music all day now.
	11:35am drr: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:45 I love this song! If you want to do it at karaoke, just ask for "Hot Legs" as they are pretty much the same song, down to both songs containing the lyric "Keep Your Hands To Yourself".
	11:35am Handy Haversack: ↳ fred @11:34 Not so far!
	11:36am clarke: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @11:35 agree! lawrence harvey sure played a great jerk in everything!

	11:37am \: Helen Reddy - meh. Out.

	11:38am Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "Theme from "Butterfield 8"" by "David Rose and Hi... What else besides the Theme would be found on this record ? I'm guessing the "Theme" is reprised more than once.
	11:38am \: Who does?

They were managed by actor Max Baer Jr. (best known as "Jethro" in The Beverly Hillbillies) and released two albums of soul-inspired psychedelic rock, Pollution I and Pollution II.[5][9] The band included singer Tata Vega and guitarist/singer James Quill Smith. He also worked at A&M Records on demo recordings with songwriter Paul Williams.[3]

	11:44am Dano59: ↳ Song: "I Fought the Law" by "Sonny Curtis" i've always wondered how much this differs from his original demo
	11:44am drr: ↳ Krys O. @11:42 That's interesting but I'm really having a time imagining Jethro as the manager of anything.
	11:44am clarke: ↳ Krys O. @11:42 i always felt Ode To Billie Joe was too-maligned - i love the soundtrack (jimmie haskell)
