	3:34pm Artie17: "East Frampton"
	3:34pm Brendan: C'mon John. Join Irwin , Ken and the other DJs in removing your shirt as a tribute to PF while broadcasting.
	3:35pm coelacanth∅: "music in general"...that's a good term for Frampton.
	3:35pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ scott @3:23 No way, haven't done any metal working since high school. It can be dangerous, thats how Tony Iommi lost his finger tips.

	3:39pm HyperDose: ↳ brycepunk1 @3:37 Hearing Gus say "take the L" made my day
	3:40pm maurer: the original idea was a medley of 'I'm in you' and 'the smell' lolololo!
	3:40pm Mister Dobalina: crumbs, everywhere!
	3:41pm scott: Peter should have asked, "What would Todd Rundgren have done?"
	3:42pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "Something Strange" by "The Herd" I think Andy Bown sings this one. Pete on guitar.
	3:42pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Gus Corrals The Herd (Pt 2)" by "Gus Bodenheim" This is quite thorough and academic - here is the more tweeded, varsity lush I always imagined Gus to be!
	👻 3:45pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Gus Corrals The Herd (Pt 3)" by "Gus Bodenheim" Gus Bodenheim is my ideal of the great professor I never actually had in my long-ago college years.
	3:46pm scott: ...in the dunes of a cape?
	3:46pm No Music for Me on WFMU: Indeed. There isn't any music on WFMU.
	3:46pm Matt from Springfield: Only WFMU!! Go Gus!! 🤘
	3:47pm Steve Mussolini: Gus declared war
	👻 3:47pm G: Ich bin ein Bodenheimer.
	3:47pm Jim the Poet: GÜS
	3:47pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ochre Ogre @3:27 Hey, OO! Yeah, it's the DIY, anti-corporate end of the hobby, that's for sure!
	👻 3:48pm Dan S: ↳ No Music for Me on WFMU @3:46 True if the listener is selective in choice of shows.
	👻 3:49pm G: ↳ No Music for Me on WFMU @3:46 Whine whine whine.
	3:49pm scott: Hey man, corps gave us the hardware for social media, don't bite the hand feeds, bleep.

	3:49pm Laura L: ↳ Song: "Gus Corrals The Herd (Pt 3)" by "Gus Bodenheim" Vielen Dank, Professor Bodenheim.
	3:49pm Brendan: Hmmmm.....Wonder who's doing Frampton at the Hoof n Mouth?
	3:49pm Andrea C from the app: note*
	3:49pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:47 F yeah!
	3:50pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Are You Gonna Go My Way" by "Peter Frampton" O Framptious day. Calloo, callay! And with that, I'll take my leave for a bit. Will see you all for the third third and a happier hour from the home shores.
	👻 3:50pm Dan S: ↳ Brendan @3:49 The competition for that honor may be fierce.
	3:51pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Jim the Poet @3:31 Leap Year Framptuary! My Framptuary calendar has had some Herd and Humble Pie for the days so far - on the 29th it supposedly has the once-every-four-years bonus, the 15 minute live version of "Do You Feel Like We Do".
	👻 3:51pm G: Does Framptuary violate sumptuary law?
	3:52pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:50 To Happier Hours, Handy!
	3:52pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:50 ...oy vey. Safe home
	3:54pm scott: Frampton History Month gets one more day haters.
	3:55pm Ike: I honestly didn't think you'd be able to drag this Frampton shtick out this long.
	3:56pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Punk Rock Loser" by "Viagra Boys" First buffering problems, now it sounds like the Studio A reel-to-reel tape player is glitching again.
	3:56pm scott: Dill is a favorite flavor doughs.
	3:56pm Jim the Poet: I learned a lot today and it's only 4 PM
	3:56pm HyperDose: ↳ Ike @3:55 This is only Part 1. It's the Ken Burns of dedication shows!
	3:57pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Jim the Poet @3:56 My clock is slow then.
	3:58pm Jim the Poet: I think beeeps are more offensive than bad words
	3:58pm Irwin: ↳ Ike @3:55 The month is young.
	👻 3:59pm G: ↳ Ochre Ogre @3:57 I don’t feel tardy.
	4:00pm scott: Thanks Irwin, complements are like naval lint.
	4:00pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Ike @3:55 Same, we'll have to hear how it goes.
	4:00pm PaulRobeson1924: Hello
	👻 4:02pm G: February Means Frampton Unleashed
	4:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...look what I missed ...can never get with the Herd can I...
	👻 4:02pm G: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:02 That’s unherd of.
	4:02pm Matt from Springfield: Hi RevRab! Hi PaulRobeson!
	4:02pm Switchblade Batman: My crush for Monica is no secret @irwin
	4:03pm Marie in Chicago: Sure, blame it on the buffer!
	4:03pm Marie in Chicago: Who doesn't love Monica?
	👻 4:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Irwin and Irwinstontonians!
	4:04pm Jim the Poet: I have a crush on Therese
	4:05pm scott: Linda Carter pons aside
	4:05pm dale: hey now. irwin, i picked up a new york rock and roll ensemble album at the salvay and was blown away when i heard the original version of 'fields of joy.' i didn't know kravitz didn't write it.
	👻 4:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Jim the Poet @4:04 Haha! Get in line, bud!
	4:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ G @4:02 ...unherd by me to be precise...
	4:08pm Ochre Ogre: Did not get Radiohead for a bit, then it clicked. Brilliant band! Same with The Velvets.
	4:09pm Irwin: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:08 I've yet to experience my Radiohead epiphany. And it's not on my bucket list for 2024. If ever.
	4:09pm PaulRobeson1924: Hi Matt!
	4:10pm Jim the Poet: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @4:05 There's a line? OK
	4:10pm Irwin: ↳ Irwin @4:09 I went in the opposite direction with the Velvets. Always thought they were a brilliant band. Then I began paying attention to some of Lou's lyrics, and ended up thinking that VU were simultaneously the world's most underrated AND overrated band.
	4:11pm StringOFperils: Peel and get confused
	4:12pm scott: Do you still use VU meters to get the level right?
	4:12pm Philip: going for it
	4:12pm Jim the Poet: ↳ Irwin @4:10 Wow. That's quite an accomplishment for one band.
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Irwin @4:10 Think the VUs like TheBeatles were dedicated to both the twin gawdz of Excellence & Change. So there are entire Bands whose thing is emulating a single Album by them...
	4:12pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @4:04 greetings Ken
	4:14pm RevWaldo: ↳ Song: "Detour" by "Chip Wickham" <deep breathing intensifies>
	4:14pm Jim the Poet: Give that guy some air!
	4:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...both under & over - which is to say incorrectly (or, imprecisely) rated ...also perhaps like TheBeatles. The top of the pyramid being after all the most obvious target for all. & the Velvets maybe being the mirror apex Underground...
	4:14pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Plate" by "Genevieve Artadi" Drumming! There's drumming on this!
	4:16pm Philip: Louis Cole's imprint is unmistakable
	4:17pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Irwin @4:10 i like early v.u but it's certainly overrated in wfmuland. (but not as overrated as yoko ono, or nico, or georgio moroder. . . . or Peter Frampton, for the moment)
	4:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& of course being emulated by 1,000s & 1,000s - for a good %age of a Century doesn't make assessment any simpler or more objective or clearer ...tho time also can give perspective (Irwin's point in the 1st place maybe even) - yer good PostModern collation of material & data for one thing...
	4:19pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Death Cab for Cutie" by "The Bonzo Dog Band" Hey, it's Ben Gibbard's early stuff!!
	👻 4:19pm Gregosaurus: Now....Bonzober would be something to strive for.
	4:19pm PaulRobeson1924: ALIVE WITH PLEASURE …sing us a Romantic Song
	4:19pm coelacanth∅: velvet underground was the inspiration for (possibly) 1000s of people starting bands for one reason only: they figured they could do this.
	4:20pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Gregosaurus @4:19 No-Sober Bonzober!! That's the ticket!
	4:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:18 - or, I meant to say - it's harder maybe after awhile to appreciate an innovation (or influencer) in the context of when it 1st happened back then. If one even cares to...
	4:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:19 Could. Should...
	4:22pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:20 well, yeah -to be sure, i'm glad it all happened. Thankful for all the garage music.
	👻 4:22pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:20 Make it so, Commander...
	4:22pm StringOFperils: VU is like an empty glass that listeners perceive as full, each in his or her own way. Like replicas of Brillo boxes, or silk-screened multiples of electric chairs. Near-emptiness vested with meaning that might or might not be there. Like everyday banality.
	👻 4:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:12 Hi, c∅!
	4:22pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Station Break" by "John Hartford" That was good, never heard/heard of him before.
	4:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Station Break" by "John Hartford" I can't tell if JH there loves or hates doing that...
	👻 4:23pm Jennica: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:22 Highly entertaining.
	4:23pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Gregosaurus @4:22 Aye aye! The Urban Spacemen and I will achieve this!
	4:24pm scott: The Beatles inspired many to get guitars, what did The VU inspire them to get?
	4:24pm PaulRobeson1924: The VU is a no no band. No no write about them, no play. No no
	4:24pm Kotzwinkled: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:22 Check him out. One of folk's great weirdos. "Long Hot Summer Days" is a classic
	4:25pm Irwin: ↳ scott @4:24 I'll let someone else make the obvious joke.
	4:25pm StringOFperils: ↳ scott @4:24 Chlamydia
	4:26pm coelacanth∅: ↳ StringOFperils @4:22 i'd star this post if i could (but i'm glad i can't)
	4:26pm Listener Fred: Thanks so much for the John Hartford. I probably saw him live 25 times and he was never a disappointment. A true innovator and extremely creative artist.
	4:26pm Kotzwinkled: IN BARLIGHT SHE LOOKED ALRIGHT/IN DAYLIGHT SHE LOOKED DESPERATE
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You can't say the VU's first Album didn't punch a hole it what Rawk could do up to then / could be accepted in it - nor that it isn't diverse, yet balanced - & also written well with sonic fascination & yes innovation (for Rawk). We credit the VUs with positing making Unpopular Pop was - indeed - a Thing. Yet - that's what Garage & Regional Rawks were to an extent - certainly what the Fugs & Monks & Mothers were kind of about...
	4:27pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Irwin @4:10 I get ya on that. Not bad for a band whose drummer had maybe one cymbal?
	4:27pm scott: Well, maybe penicillin?
	4:28pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Sequestered in Memphis" by "The Hold Steady" The Minneapolis E Street Band! I have heard The Hold Steady before - like 'em!
	4:28pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Kotzwinkled @4:24 Any weirdo is worth checking out, particularly from folk! Thanks for the rec!
	👻 4:29pm Gregosaurus: ↳ scott @4:24 A dealer.
	4:29pm coelacanth∅: velvet underground might've gotten more immediate recognition for brilliance had they a drummer. ...and i do think they were brilliant, much of the time, over their first few albums. still overrated in wfmuland!
	4:29pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Sequestered in Memphis" by "The Hold Steady" I got the newest Hold Steady album recently, and I regret to say that I didn't love it like I loved their previous ones. Maybe their next one will please me more.
	4:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yerknow - Greatness doesn't mean Beyond Critique. But also - Flaws are Human - & Art is Humans relating to Humans. Is one going Theory - @ any rate... The Zen people make sure Art has Flaws. & all that...
	4:31pm StringOFperils: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:29 I chalk it up to New York-area boosterism. And the need to mythologize stuff so your life isn't boring.
	4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& after all - before Unpopular Pop, there was (for instance) Unpopular Bop. Already an Underground...
	4:31pm Matt from Springfield: Does anyone here know how to play "Saxon flute"??
	4:31pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:12 Twin er triplet, Bob Dylan.
	4:31pm -жеи: ↳ Song: "Death Cab for Cutie" by "The Bonzo Dog Band" Wasnt this also the song that the Bonzo's performed for the Beatles in Magical Mystery Tour?
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ StringOFperils @4:31 & also ...for Junkies everywhere ...the Velvets.
	4:32pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:26 i agree. the 2nd album too -at least some of it. ...and nico was a conversation piece, if not an endless source of amusing references ("wot a clon")
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ -жеи @4:31 Yes.
	4:32pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ -жеи @4:31 I believe this was the one. That exposure probably led to the band using that name.
	4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:32 Always loved Nico. Her singing - & her Solo Albums are still genuinely Avant. Let alone then.
	4:33pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "Historie des geliebten Schwein Malchus" by "Shelt... Sorry, it's Brecht. The other guy.
	4:34pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Historie des geliebten Schwein Malchus" by "Shelt... I've been liking Shelto Marx as well.
	4:35pm Mister Dobalina: Ken would be proud.
	4:35pm coelacanth∅: ugh, sorry...it is subjective after all but her "singing" was miserable! and it's Thanks to Cale and others that her solo records were good.
	4:35pm scott: Oh, here comes my... man.
	4:35pm coelacanth∅: (spotty good)
	4:36pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Historie des geliebten Schwein Malchus" by "Shelt... Groucho, Harpo, Chico, Zeppo, and...Shelto?
	4:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:32 - tho, granted, I do sing along to her in an exaggerated German accent. Still.
	4:36pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:33 Marlene Dietrich overprinted on Marianne Faithfull, reflected back as a photo-negative, dark side of the '60s...
	4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:35 I disagree about her voice - & with Cale let's call it a collaboration. Cale also Produced the first Stooges, ModernLovers & PattiSmith. & they didn't sound like that...
	👻 4:37pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Roberto @4:36 Didn't work out. That's why Gummo showed up.
	4:37pm Irwin: Shelto: sheltomarx.bandcamp.com...
	4:37pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Roberto @4:36 Marxists are often "Splitters" over which is their favorite one...
	4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:36 That's pretty good !
	4:37pm scott: Kurt Weill, Macky?
	👻 4:38pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:36 Nico is a REALLY fun voice to do. Especially musically.
	4:38pm rf: ↳ Song: "Historie des geliebten Schwein Malchus" by "Shelt... I love the piano on this
	4:38pm StringOFperils: If you combined Werner Herzog Claudia Schiffer, and Marlene Dietrich, you'd get Nico back.
	4:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ StringOFperils @4:38 HaHa !
	4:39pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:37 She really was something else - the kind to inspire that kind of imagery, just now ! @StringOFperils: Another good recipe.
	4:39pm Roberto: ↳ Gregosaurus @4:37 Ahhh of course.
	4:40pm scott: Ute Lemper does it for me.
	4:40pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Song: "Eden" by "Talk Talk" I waffle back and forth on whether I think this record or Laughing Stock is the best pick from their discography.
	4:40pm common: one of the best talk talk songs
	4:41pm StringOFperils: Wow, I dreamed about Mark Hollis the other night, but it didn't look like him. I remember being confused. Completely forgot about that..
	4:41pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:37 true. i think he was inspired by her ideas and took them to another level. his production wasn't/isn't always so great.
	4:41pm Jim the Poet: Talk Talk!
	4:42pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:36 haha, nice
	4:43pm Handy Haversack: OK. What'd I miss?
	4:43pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Gregosaurus @4:19 Don't give them any ideas. I understand Jon Bon is a great guy, but meh music for month dedicated on FMU. Yo La Tengo would be much more fitting.
	4:43pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Song: "Historie des geliebten Schwein Malchus" by "Shelt... This is not Kim Borg
	4:43pm coelacanth∅: ↳ StringOFperils @4:38 there must be some computer program to try this out on!
	4:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:41 Well, Producer ~ Artist chemistry is always a thing. Sometimes even very difficult relations having great results... Sometimes not.
	👻 4:44pm Gregosaurus: Possibly apocryphal, but I still love the story that this album made a Parlophone A&R exec cry at the first playthrough. (cuz it was SO uncommercial)
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Gregosaurus @4:44 Oh, right ...cause no chance an Exec could be sincerely moved...
	4:45pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:40 AC, did you see Creamo did a last-minute fill-in yesterday? Good stuff!
	4:46pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ scott @4:24 Get guitars and do narcotics.
	4:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:46 ...instead of saxes...
	4:47pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:45 Noooo, I didn't see it! I had the day off, and was running around Manhattan mostly on trains / underground or in appointments in offices. I'll have to check it out on the archives!
	4:48pm Philip: reminds me of damien jurado
	4:49pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Philip @4:48 Reminds me of Judith Raskin
	👻 4:49pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:47 It was here. www.wfmu.org... And it was indeed great.
	4:49pm spacecadet: ↳ Song: "Rainmaker" by "Hiromi" beautiful transition!
	4:50pm HyperDose: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:47 I was introduced to Chargers Street Gang and my mind was blown. It was a magically delicious three hours
	4:50pm Irwin: ↳ spacecadet @4:49 Thanks for noticing! It was rather smoove.
	4:51pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Rainmaker" by "Hiromi" Make it rain! And, this jazz-of-a-smooth-variety is good!
	4:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:29 Also - re MoTucker's Drumming - I think the VUs were Motorik before even Synths. (Granted - so were TheMonks - who were U.S. G.I.s in Germany...) For certain the Kosmiche (Krautrawk) people & Avant Rawkers in Europe were all informed by the Velvets.
	4:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Creamo Roolz.
	4:55pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Rainmaker" by "Hiromi" And hey! This song has drumming, too! Who knew?...
	4:55pm Ochre Ogre: Hey Matt, well said, with mental image even! Way better better than the comment I was conjuring.
	👻 4:58pm doctorjazz: Hi all!
	4:59pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Bacon Lettuce and Tmrw" by "Ted Taforo, Efajemue ... Bacon, Lettuce, hold the Tmrw...
	5:00pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:55 Thanks Ochre Ogre! Seems I should add that imagery to my Greatest Hits comp 😉
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's almost as if the DJ had some nondescript Pro-Drumming bias...
	5:02pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:00 Now that you mention it, I think there is actually Drumming in almost EVERY track on his show!! Except for (most of) the spoken-word/comedic tracks, there is Drumming! And Drumming of Rhythm, at that!!
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:02 Lucky for me I adore good Drummers. (Since I'm not one & have barely ever even played with any.)
	5:05pm Feldy: Thanks, Irwin!
	👻 5:06pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Tsakwe" by "Abdullah Ibrahim (ft. Noah Jackson & ... Saw this group in November, loved the show (but I'm in Abdullah Ibrahim fan boy). Just got this LP set (it's 2 45 RPM LP's, great sounding)!
	5:06pm rf: ↳ Irwin @4:37 bought the album! THanks
	5:06pm StringOFperils: Helen Wiggin. The ne plus ultra of drums
	5:07pm Matt in Queens: I keep dead people in my lists
	5:07pm northguineahills: as a historian, that information may come in handy one day....
	5:07pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:52 mo tucker could barely (often could not) keep a beat. and she played the bass drum with a stick because she couldn't coordinate the pedal. she played the bare minimum -which turned out to be appropriate for a lot of vu's music- but not because of any talent on her part. and motorik? no. 4/4 time does not = motorik. and in any case it's not like motorik was some innovation. it's a brisk, steady 4/4 rhythm. common long before krautrock. i played a brisk, steady 4/4 rhythm for a 20-something minute version of i'm not your stepping stone in 1981. was that motorik? never crossed my mind!
	5:07pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt in Queens @5:07 i keep dead people in my freezer...
	5:08pm Beetlemuse: fine line between collector and hoarder
	5:08pm Johnny Shanks: I keep dead people's contact info, in memorium.
	5:08pm jeanli: Found my old Rolodex in a drawer recently --aolmost everyone in them is dead and I am born in the 60s. Some hard years in the LES....
	5:08pm Ochre Ogre: Yes, I keep the dear ones.
	5:08pm szzn: I'm not dead, though I probably should be.
	5:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:07 Maybe it was. & you also say literally both Motorik is 4/4 & is not 4/4.
	5:09pm Feldy: You really die when the last person deletes your phone number
	5:09pm Irwin: ↳ northguineahills @5:07 Better than the attic or a closet.
	5:09pm Matt in Queens: NGH, time for a cookout?
	5:09pm LC: talk of dead people is creepy but refreshing
	5:09pm rf: ↳ Feldy @5:09 :(
	5:09pm coelacanth∅: ↳ northguineahills @5:07 i keep them in the police chief's backyard, in shallow holes under the doghouse.
	5:09pm Matt from Springfield: Data-Hoarders, Unite!!! I would leave the deceased in your contacts list for sentimental reasons, until the list becomes a majority of dead people, then you need to decide which should stay on it. What about the Old Codger? If he has a contacts list, I'm sure most of those people are deceased! (In his little black book particularly, most of those names are Red Hot Mamas who bit the dust...)
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: When we get the Quantum Physics & Time Travel all sorted out ...a lot of stuff is gonna look real different.
	👻 5:10pm Amygdala: ↳ Johnny Shanks @5:08 ditto
	5:10pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Feldy @5:09 That's a good Urban Legend to spread to the new Gen Alpha kids.
	5:10pm Irwin: ↳ szzn @5:08 Hello, szzn. All these years.
	5:11pm northguineahills: ↳ Beetlemuse @5:08 true...true....
	5:11pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Irwin @5:09 I smell what yer saying in regard to northghills comment.
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: " My Address Book is full of dead people ! 'My Generation' ...how did that happen ?! " - PeteTownshend ...well, wait long enuff - & they all are, we have realized...
	5:12pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt in Queens @5:09 now that i have my own kitchen, most def...(need to clean out the freezer of, i mean from the former occupant)
	5:12pm HyperDose: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:09 Writing in your little black book with a quill by candle light. How exhilarating!
	5:13pm szzn: ↳ Irwin @5:10 Decades. Nice little show you have here.
	5:13pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:09 i literally say motorik is 4/4 because it literally is 4/4.
	5:13pm Irwin: ↳ szzn @5:13 And you are here. Nice.
	5:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:13 " 4/4 time does not = motorik "
	5:14pm StringOFperils: ↳ northguineahills @5:12 Jimmy Hoffa's in there. With his Rolodex and a carton of Tareytons
	5:15pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:14 true; but mototorik is always 4/4 time.
	5:15pm coelacanth∅: (so's motorik)
	5:16pm northguineahills: ok, time to leave work, thanks irwin!
	5:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:07 & also - every Artist has Limitations. Sometimes large ones. Even important Artists. Which is also one of the relevant things the VUs represent to a lot of others. Exactly. Anyway.
	5:18pm Marie in Chicago: I love this organ sound
	5:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "New Church Triptych" by "Jefferson Pilot" Recalling Incredible String Band ?
	5:18pm Acid Cazh: ↳ HyperDose @4:50 Thanks Handy, Ken & HyperDose for the heads up — and thanks Ken for the link! Got it saved for the next time I'm listening to WFMU and a three-hour show comes on that I'm not a fan of (I am NOT gonna name names).
	5:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:18 Harmonium ?
	5:19pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "All's Fair in War" by "Leah Callahan" thought this was Marco Benevento fer a minute.
	5:21pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:19 oh, is that what it is? Neat. I'm not even sure what that is but I've heard of them. (is that proper English? I'm so fried from work right now)
	5:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:21 I think there's Harmoniums you pump by hand (think Ginsberg or Hare Krishnas ?) - & ones you sit @ & pump with your legs...
	5:24pm Ochre Ogre: Would the Velvets have made it without being in Warhol's aura?
	5:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:24 Oo. Like What If TheBeatles hadn't met Epstein...
	5:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:24 ...except 'making it' was kind of an inverted thing to the Velvets in the first place ...& they dropped Andy by the 2nd Album ...which isn't what you asked...
	5:28pm PaulRobeson1924: I leave them
	5:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "What is Hip?" by "Tokyo Groove Jyoshi" Saw the video for this & like Hell Yeah.
	5:28pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @5:28 Memento Mori
	5:30pm PaulRobeson1924: I’m wondering, What’s fer dinner?
	5:31pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:22 kewl.I looked to up on old Wiki and see that it makes sound by pushing air through reeds. Very interesting. I will be reading more. I wish there were more harmonium sounds around.
	5:32pm paddy in matawan: jammy
	5:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:31 Reed Organs. That's it.
	5:32pm Matt from Springfield: Wikipedia, recent deaths: "Barry John", evidently a Welsh rugby player: en.wikipedia.org... So, we've lost John Barry, and now Barry John. (But, I'll leave both of them in my Contacts.)
	5:33pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:28 Guess I was thinkin of the first LP and all that Exploding Plastic Inevitable.
	5:34pm PaulRobeson1924: Where have all the flowers gone?
	5:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:33 It's a worthwhile question tho.
	5:35pm Matt from Springfield: Evidently, a shamisen is a 3-stringed longneck instrument, like a "banjo": en.wikipedia.org... The koto has many more strings and is shaped like a wide harp, like a "zither": en.wikipedia.org...
	5:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:35 You don't hold up a Koto - it lays flat. Correct me if wrong.
	5:37pm Spikey BXL: They're pounding nails
	5:37pm StringOFperils: LOL
	5:37pm Monica: Oh, wait! Didn't realize filling-in for Irwin was conditional on Framptonian content.
	5:37pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:36 Indeed - the pictures show holding a shamisen against the body, while the koto are larger, tabletop instruments plucked while wearing metal finger-tips.
	5:38pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:26 this will sound strange to some people, and i only just thought of it and may be missing something... but i think if there were no Warhol and no Epstein, the velvet underground stood a better chance of becoming well-known than the beatles. ...because of timing; and because vu probably would've replaced mo with a real drummer and found a place in the garage/psych world. beatles were just an exceptional bar band. rejected by one label after another. we'll never know.
	5:38pm Beetlemuse: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:35 If you watch the video its a 3 stringed instrument so I'd go with shamisen :)
	5:38pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:35 I Love this one! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcqO0zkyQRo
	👻 5:38pm Mxter Baba: Vout-o-reeni! Well, shucks!!!
	5:38pm Irwin: ↳ Monica @5:37 There's a rider, Mo. You didn't get the second memo?
	5:38pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Monica @5:37 "Frampton-adjacent" is acceptable...
	5:38pm Laura L: ↳ Monica @5:37 We won't tell if you do or you don't!
	5:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Shamisen (as in Tokyo Groove track) : www.proverbs2525.org... Koto : sonica.jp...
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:38 ...after all - he's in you...
	5:39pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Beetlemuse @5:38 Ah, in the Tokyo Groove Jyoshi video? That confirms it! We can say "shamisen" with confidence now! 🙂
	5:39pm Marie in Chicago: I loved the rest stop line
	5:40pm Glistener MW: I’m quite enjoying this timely update to “You’re the top” now that cellophane is [APPARENTLY] no longer cool or fashionable anymore [or so Gen Z tells me.]
	5:40pm judy from croton: The best
	5:40pm Brendan: Thanks Gus. You're the bees knees and a swell guy too.
	5:40pm StringOFperils: Gus. You're the top, you're a medium pizza.
	5:40pm LC: this is great!
	5:40pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "You're the Goods" by "Gus Bodenheim" WFMU, home of the Genuine, not the Pseudos!! 😄
	👻 5:41pm Tom in St. Paul: "You're a perfect Rick Roll" – wonder what that would look like
	👻 5:41pm Mxter Baba: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 100% freeform for the deform!
	5:41pm Ochre Ogre: Shamisen Girls Ki&Ki, check them out!
	5:41pm wenzo: Waddupdoe!
	5:42pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:37 koto usually played at floor level; but the chinese instrument that is basically a koto, hundreds of years before "koto", (the guszeng -sp??) i think was often played on a table.
	5:42pm LC: ↳ Song: "Pandas" by "Mike Dillon (ft. Brian Haas & Nikki G... love this
	5:42pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Mxter Baba @5:41 Mxter Baba, for the win!!
	👻 5:43pm 12539: Thanks, Irwin!
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:38 - this assessment of TheBeatles is of course intended to provoke. It's nonsense. Epstein himself remarked that Lennon would've made a mark in Arts. Let alone Lennon-McCartney. Epstein got them in synch with ShowBiz... As for the VUs & Warhol tho - was in fact thinking maybe they woulda got traction as just a Good Band more without Andy's circus ! ...but it's all What Ifs. Counterfactuals... What about the piSToLS & 'mismanager' Malcolm ? But they probly wouldn't have existed @ all...
	5:45pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:42 At least from the article, modern photos show performers playing koto on raised platforms, at least at concerts, while the older drawing shows a woman reclining on the floor while playing it, which is probably the more traditional way (Japanese tradition seems to prefer things closer to the ground).
	5:46pm coelacanth∅: "this assessment of TheBeatles is of course intended to provoke. It's nonsense" your ASSumption is 100% incorrect. and yes, Lennon, a visual artist. not the beatles.
	5:46pm Monica: ↳ Laura L @5:38 Thx, Laura L and Matt. I clearly failed to read the fine print. Irwin, did your fave singers Ella Fitzgerald do any Frampton covers?
	5:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:46 & they were TheBeatles before Epstein.
	5:47pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:38 weren't The Beatles rejected only by Decca?
	5:47pm brycepunk1: Really cool song
	5:47pm StringOFperils: ↳ Monica @5:46 A Tisket A Tasket I'm In Your Basket
	5:47pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Monica @5:46 Zing! 😊
	5:47pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:45 yeah, probably now. it's just tradition. and actually i don't know what the traditional way of playinng the gusheng was.
	5:48pm LC: ↳ brycepunk1 @5:47 agreed
	👻 5:48pm Tom in St. Paul: ↳ Song: "Grand Central" by "Mr. Griddles" this has a post-Moondog vibe
	5:48pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Monica @5:46 Oh, snap!
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:47 TheBeatles were rejected by every Label until George Martin @ Parlophone - know for his work mostly in Comedy - gave them a go. As he was looking for a Pop act to change his fortunes...
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:48 - they were, after all, Northerners from Liverpool.
	5:50pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:47 yes, but they were a bar band. the majority of great bar bands never get signed, you know that. every member was on the verge of quitting time & time again until Brian came along. and they apparently were rejected over and over. emi was one of Epstein's last hopes, at least in the big league. (at least, according to the beatles themselves, in "anthology")
	5:51pm Laura L: 10 to 6 already! Thanks for a very fine show, Irwin & Gus.
	5:51pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "I'll Pray for You" by "Love" R&R w/ Psychedelic lyrics!
	5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:47 ...Decca gave them an Audition (1/1/62) - which was Taped - & rejected them in favor of the Tremoloes. Cause the Tremeloes were Local Londoners... Harrison later recommended the Stones to the same guy. Which isn't too bad... For one thing - Ringo took over from PeteBest almost exactly when they started Recording with Martin. Which made a large difference...
	5:53pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Irwin. Take care, all.
	5:53pm Ochre Ogre: Reckon VU might have ended up like The Seeds, The Sonics or... We'll never know.?
	5:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:50 That much is all factual.
	5:54pm Irwin: ↳ Monica @5:46 Dig around, Mo. Maybe Ella covered "Show Me the Way." That counts towards Frampton fulfillment.
	5:55pm PaulRobeson1924: Anything off the Eterna label?
	5:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:53 People make the counter argument (so to speak) that the VUs did have a following on a certain circuit of venues. Which isn't selling records...
	👻 5:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Monica @5:37 If you have a Frampton image for Mr. Turntables, maybe that's the answer?
	5:56pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:55 The VU are non people
	5:56pm listener 126464: Thank you, Irwin!!
	5:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Recycling" by "Jazzagenturen, Krister Andersson &... All that Snazz, plus classic Jazz.. THANKS Irwin! Another great listen! Have a good week off and we'll hear you when you get back! Have a great evening, Chusidians, Bodenheimers, Jazzcats and Frampton-adjacents!!
	5:57pm Ochre Ogre: Thanks Irwin! Cheers all
	5:58pm Brendan: Suddenly the day turns into night. Thanks one and all .
	5:58pm LC: thanks Irwin, enjoyed the show and the comments too!
	5:59pm maurer: cheers!
	5:59pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Recycling" by "Jazzagenturen, Krister Andersson &... @RevRab: Here we go with that Drumming again, the Rhythmarchy marches on...🙄
	5:59pm HyperDose: Thanks, Irwin!
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:59 Loves Jazz Drummerz
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Mr. IDC Sir ~
	👻 6:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thank you, Irwin. Have an enjoyable St. Valentine's Day!
	6:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Irwin!
	6:00pm Acid Cazh: GOODNIGHT EVERYONE I'm signing off and headed to the wine store
	6:00pm wenzo: 🙏
	6:00pm StringOFperils: Thanks Irwin and free-lance musicologists. Keep doing that whip dance.
	6:00pm Marie in Chicago: Thanks, Irwin!

	4:09pm PaulRobeson1924: Hi Matt!
	4:10pm Jim the Poet: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @4:05 There's a line? OK
	4:10pm Irwin: ↳ Irwin @4:09 I went in the opposite direction with the Velvets. Always thought they were a brilliant band. Then I began paying attention to some of Lou's lyrics, and ended up thinking that VU were simultaneously the world's most underrated AND overrated band.
	4:11pm StringOFperils: Peel and get confused
	4:12pm scott: Do you still use VU meters to get the level right?
	4:12pm Philip: going for it
	4:12pm Jim the Poet: ↳ Irwin @4:10 Wow. That's quite an accomplishment for one band.
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Irwin @4:10 Think the VUs like TheBeatles were dedicated to both the twin gawdz of Excellence & Change. So there are entire Bands whose thing is emulating a single Album by them...

	4:14pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Plate" by "Genevieve Artadi" Drumming! There's drumming on this!
	4:16pm Philip: Louis Cole's imprint is unmistakable
	4:17pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Irwin @4:10 i like early v.u but it's certainly overrated in wfmuland. (but not as overrated as yoko ono, or nico, or georgio moroder. . . . or Peter Frampton, for the moment)
	4:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& of course being emulated by 1,000s & 1,000s - for a good %age of a Century doesn't make assessment any simpler or more objective or clearer ...tho time also can give perspective (Irwin's point in the 1st place maybe even) - yer good PostModern collation of material & data for one thing...
	4:19pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Death Cab for Cutie" by "The Bonzo Dog Band" Hey, it's Ben Gibbard's early stuff!!
	👻 4:19pm Gregosaurus: Now....Bonzober would be something to strive for.
	4:19pm PaulRobeson1924: ALIVE WITH PLEASURE …sing us a Romantic Song
	4:19pm coelacanth∅: velvet underground was the inspiration for (possibly) 1000s of people starting bands for one reason only: they figured they could do this.
	4:20pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Gregosaurus @4:19 No-Sober Bonzober!! That's the ticket!
	4:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:18 - or, I meant to say - it's harder maybe after awhile to appreciate an innovation (or influencer) in the context of when it 1st happened back then. If one even cares to...
	4:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:19 Could. Should...
	4:22pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:20 well, yeah -to be sure, i'm glad it all happened. Thankful for all the garage music.
	👻 4:22pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:20 Make it so, Commander...
	4:22pm StringOFperils: VU is like an empty glass that listeners perceive as full, each in his or her own way. Like replicas of Brillo boxes, or silk-screened multiples of electric chairs. Near-emptiness vested with meaning that might or might not be there. Like everyday banality.
	👻 4:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:12 Hi, c∅!
	4:22pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Station Break" by "John Hartford" That was good, never heard/heard of him before.

	4:24pm scott: The Beatles inspired many to get guitars, what did The VU inspire them to get?
	4:24pm PaulRobeson1924: The VU is a no no band. No no write about them, no play. No no
	4:24pm Kotzwinkled: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:22 Check him out. One of folk's great weirdos. "Long Hot Summer Days" is a classic
	4:25pm Irwin: ↳ scott @4:24 I'll let someone else make the obvious joke.
	4:25pm StringOFperils: ↳ scott @4:24 Chlamydia
	4:26pm coelacanth∅: ↳ StringOFperils @4:22 i'd star this post if i could (but i'm glad i can't)
	4:26pm Listener Fred: Thanks so much for the John Hartford. I probably saw him live 25 times and he was never a disappointment. A true innovator and extremely creative artist.
	4:26pm Kotzwinkled: IN BARLIGHT SHE LOOKED ALRIGHT/IN DAYLIGHT SHE LOOKED DESPERATE
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You can't say the VU's first Album didn't punch a hole it what Rawk could do up to then / could be accepted in it - nor that it isn't diverse, yet balanced - & also written well with sonic fascination & yes innovation (for Rawk). We credit the VUs with positing making Unpopular Pop was - indeed - a Thing. Yet - that's what Garage & Regional Rawks were to an extent - certainly what the Fugs & Monks & Mothers were kind of about...
	4:27pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Irwin @4:10 I get ya on that. Not bad for a band whose drummer had maybe one cymbal?
	4:27pm scott: Well, maybe penicillin?
	4:28pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Sequestered in Memphis" by "The Hold Steady" The Minneapolis E Street Band! I have heard The Hold Steady before - like 'em!
	4:28pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Kotzwinkled @4:24 Any weirdo is worth checking out, particularly from folk! Thanks for the rec!
	👻 4:29pm Gregosaurus: ↳ scott @4:24 A dealer.
	4:29pm coelacanth∅: velvet underground might've gotten more immediate recognition for brilliance had they a drummer. ...and i do think they were brilliant, much of the time, over their first few albums. still overrated in wfmuland!
	4:29pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Sequestered in Memphis" by "The Hold Steady" I got the newest Hold Steady album recently, and I regret to say that I didn't love it like I loved their previous ones. Maybe their next one will please me more.
	4:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yerknow - Greatness doesn't mean Beyond Critique. But also - Flaws are Human - & Art is Humans relating to Humans. Is one going Theory - @ any rate... The Zen people make sure Art has Flaws. & all that...
	4:31pm StringOFperils: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:29 I chalk it up to New York-area boosterism. And the need to mythologize stuff so your life isn't boring.
	4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& after all - before Unpopular Pop, there was (for instance) Unpopular Bop. Already an Underground...
	4:31pm Matt from Springfield: Does anyone here know how to play "Saxon flute"??
	4:31pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:12 Twin er triplet, Bob Dylan.
	4:31pm -жеи: ↳ Song: "Death Cab for Cutie" by "The Bonzo Dog Band" Wasnt this also the song that the Bonzo's performed for the Beatles in Magical Mystery Tour?
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ StringOFperils @4:31 & also ...for Junkies everywhere ...the Velvets.
	4:32pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:26 i agree. the 2nd album too -at least some of it. ...and nico was a conversation piece, if not an endless source of amusing references ("wot a clon")
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ -жеи @4:31 Yes.
	4:32pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ -жеи @4:31 I believe this was the one. That exposure probably led to the band using that name.
	4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:32 Always loved Nico. Her singing - & her Solo Albums are still genuinely Avant. Let alone then.
	4:33pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "Historie des geliebten Schwein Malchus" by "Shelt... Sorry, it's Brecht. The other guy.
	4:34pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Historie des geliebten Schwein Malchus" by "Shelt... I've been liking Shelto Marx as well.
	4:35pm Mister Dobalina: Ken would be proud.
	4:35pm coelacanth∅: ugh, sorry...it is subjective after all but her "singing" was miserable! and it's Thanks to Cale and others that her solo records were good.
	4:35pm scott: Oh, here comes my... man.
	4:35pm coelacanth∅: (spotty good)
	4:36pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Historie des geliebten Schwein Malchus" by "Shelt... Groucho, Harpo, Chico, Zeppo, and...Shelto?

	4:36pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:33 Marlene Dietrich overprinted on Marianne Faithfull, reflected back as a photo-negative, dark side of the '60s...
	4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:35 I disagree about her voice - & with Cale let's call it a collaboration. Cale also Produced the first Stooges, ModernLovers & PattiSmith. & they didn't sound like that...
	👻 4:37pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Roberto @4:36 Didn't work out. That's why Gummo showed up.
	4:37pm Irwin: Shelto: sheltomarx.bandcamp.com...

	4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:36 That's pretty good !
	4:37pm scott: Kurt Weill, Macky?
	👻 4:38pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:36 Nico is a REALLY fun voice to do. Especially musically.
	4:38pm rf: ↳ Song: "Historie des geliebten Schwein Malchus" by "Shelt... I love the piano on this
	4:38pm StringOFperils: If you combined Werner Herzog Claudia Schiffer, and Marlene Dietrich, you'd get Nico back.
	4:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ StringOFperils @4:38 HaHa !
	4:39pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:37 She really was something else - the kind to inspire that kind of imagery, just now ! @StringOFperils: Another good recipe.
	4:39pm Roberto: ↳ Gregosaurus @4:37 Ahhh of course.
	4:40pm scott: Ute Lemper does it for me.
	4:40pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Song: "Eden" by "Talk Talk" I waffle back and forth on whether I think this record or Laughing Stock is the best pick from their discography.
	4:40pm common: one of the best talk talk songs
	4:41pm StringOFperils: Wow, I dreamed about Mark Hollis the other night, but it didn't look like him. I remember being confused. Completely forgot about that..
	4:41pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:37 true. i think he was inspired by her ideas and took them to another level. his production wasn't/isn't always so great.
	4:41pm Jim the Poet: Talk Talk!
	4:42pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:36 haha, nice
	4:43pm Handy Haversack: OK. What'd I miss?
	4:43pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Gregosaurus @4:19 Don't give them any ideas. I understand Jon Bon is a great guy, but meh music for month dedicated on FMU. Yo La Tengo would be much more fitting.
	4:43pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Song: "Historie des geliebten Schwein Malchus" by "Shelt... This is not Kim Borg
	4:43pm coelacanth∅: ↳ StringOFperils @4:38 there must be some computer program to try this out on!
	4:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:41 Well, Producer ~ Artist chemistry is always a thing. Sometimes even very difficult relations having great results... Sometimes not.
	👻 4:44pm Gregosaurus: Possibly apocryphal, but I still love the story that this album made a Parlophone A&R exec cry at the first playthrough. (cuz it was SO uncommercial)
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Gregosaurus @4:44 Oh, right ...cause no chance an Exec could be sincerely moved...
	4:45pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:40 AC, did you see Creamo did a last-minute fill-in yesterday? Good stuff!
	4:46pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ scott @4:24 Get guitars and do narcotics.
	4:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:46 ...instead of saxes...
	4:47pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:45 Noooo, I didn't see it! I had the day off, and was running around Manhattan mostly on trains / underground or in appointments in offices. I'll have to check it out on the archives!
	4:48pm Philip: reminds me of damien jurado
	4:49pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Philip @4:48 Reminds me of Judith Raskin

	4:49pm spacecadet: ↳ Song: "Rainmaker" by "Hiromi" beautiful transition!
	4:50pm HyperDose: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:47 I was introduced to Chargers Street Gang and my mind was blown. It was a magically delicious three hours
	4:50pm Irwin: ↳ spacecadet @4:49 Thanks for noticing! It was rather smoove.
	4:51pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Rainmaker" by "Hiromi" Make it rain! And, this jazz-of-a-smooth-variety is good!
	4:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:29 Also - re MoTucker's Drumming - I think the VUs were Motorik before even Synths. (Granted - so were TheMonks - who were U.S. G.I.s in Germany...) For certain the Kosmiche (Krautrawk) people & Avant Rawkers in Europe were all informed by the Velvets.
	4:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Creamo Roolz.
	4:55pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Rainmaker" by "Hiromi" And hey! This song has drumming, too! Who knew?...
	4:55pm Ochre Ogre: Hey Matt, well said, with mental image even! Way better better than the comment I was conjuring.

	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's almost as if the DJ had some nondescript Pro-Drumming bias...
	5:02pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:00 Now that you mention it, I think there is actually Drumming in almost EVERY track on his show!! Except for (most of) the spoken-word/comedic tracks, there is Drumming! And Drumming of Rhythm, at that!!
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:02 Lucky for me I adore good Drummers. (Since I'm not one & have barely ever even played with any.)
	5:05pm Feldy: Thanks, Irwin!
	👻 5:06pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Tsakwe" by "Abdullah Ibrahim (ft. Noah Jackson & ... Saw this group in November, loved the show (but I'm in Abdullah Ibrahim fan boy). Just got this LP set (it's 2 45 RPM LP's, great sounding)!

	5:07pm Matt in Queens: I keep dead people in my lists
	5:07pm northguineahills: as a historian, that information may come in handy one day....
	5:07pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:52 mo tucker could barely (often could not) keep a beat. and she played the bass drum with a stick because she couldn't coordinate the pedal. she played the bare minimum -which turned out to be appropriate for a lot of vu's music- but not because of any talent on her part. and motorik? no. 4/4 time does not = motorik. and in any case it's not like motorik was some innovation. it's a brisk, steady 4/4 rhythm. common long before krautrock. i played a brisk, steady 4/4 rhythm for a 20-something minute version of i'm not your stepping stone in 1981. was that motorik? never crossed my mind!
	5:07pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt in Queens @5:07 i keep dead people in my freezer...
	5:08pm Beetlemuse: fine line between collector and hoarder
	5:08pm Johnny Shanks: I keep dead people's contact info, in memorium.

	5:08pm Ochre Ogre: Yes, I keep the dear ones.
	5:08pm szzn: I'm not dead, though I probably should be.
	5:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:07 Maybe it was. & you also say literally both Motorik is 4/4 & is not 4/4.
	5:09pm Feldy: You really die when the last person deletes your phone number
	5:09pm Irwin: ↳ northguineahills @5:07 Better than the attic or a closet.
	5:09pm Matt in Queens: NGH, time for a cookout?
	5:09pm LC: talk of dead people is creepy but refreshing
	5:09pm rf: ↳ Feldy @5:09 :(
	5:09pm coelacanth∅: ↳ northguineahills @5:07 i keep them in the police chief's backyard, in shallow holes under the doghouse.
	5:09pm Matt from Springfield: Data-Hoarders, Unite!!! I would leave the deceased in your contacts list for sentimental reasons, until the list becomes a majority of dead people, then you need to decide which should stay on it. What about the Old Codger? If he has a contacts list, I'm sure most of those people are deceased! (In his little black book particularly, most of those names are Red Hot Mamas who bit the dust...)

	5:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:07 & also - every Artist has Limitations. Sometimes large ones. Even important Artists. Which is also one of the relevant things the VUs represent to a lot of others. Exactly. Anyway.
	5:18pm Marie in Chicago: I love this organ sound
	5:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "New Church Triptych" by "Jefferson Pilot" Recalling Incredible String Band ?
	5:18pm Acid Cazh: ↳ HyperDose @4:50 Thanks Handy, Ken & HyperDose for the heads up — and thanks Ken for the link! Got it saved for the next time I'm listening to WFMU and a three-hour show comes on that I'm not a fan of (I am NOT gonna name names).
	5:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:18 Harmonium ?
	5:19pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "All's Fair in War" by "Leah Callahan" thought this was Marco Benevento fer a minute.
	5:21pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:19 oh, is that what it is? Neat. I'm not even sure what that is but I've heard of them. (is that proper English? I'm so fried from work right now)
	5:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:21 I think there's Harmoniums you pump by hand (think Ginsberg or Hare Krishnas ?) - & ones you sit @ & pump with your legs...
	5:24pm Ochre Ogre: Would the Velvets have made it without being in Warhol's aura?
	5:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:24 Oo. Like What If TheBeatles hadn't met Epstein...
	5:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:24 ...except 'making it' was kind of an inverted thing to the Velvets in the first place ...& they dropped Andy by the 2nd Album ...which isn't what you asked...
	5:28pm PaulRobeson1924: I leave them
	5:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "What is Hip?" by "Tokyo Groove Jyoshi" Saw the video for this & like Hell Yeah.
	5:28pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @5:28 Memento Mori
	5:30pm PaulRobeson1924: I’m wondering, What’s fer dinner?
	5:31pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:22 kewl.I looked to up on old Wiki and see that it makes sound by pushing air through reeds. Very interesting. I will be reading more. I wish there were more harmonium sounds around.
	5:32pm paddy in matawan: jammy
	5:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:31 Reed Organs. That's it.
	5:32pm Matt from Springfield: Wikipedia, recent deaths: "Barry John", evidently a Welsh rugby player: en.wikipedia.org... So, we've lost John Barry, and now Barry John. (But, I'll leave both of them in my Contacts.)
	5:33pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:28 Guess I was thinkin of the first LP and all that Exploding Plastic Inevitable.
	5:34pm PaulRobeson1924: Where have all the flowers gone?
	5:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:33 It's a worthwhile question tho.
	5:35pm Matt from Springfield: Evidently, a shamisen is a 3-stringed longneck instrument, like a "banjo": en.wikipedia.org... The koto has many more strings and is shaped like a wide harp, like a "zither": en.wikipedia.org...
	5:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:35 You don't hold up a Koto - it lays flat. Correct me if wrong.
	5:37pm Spikey BXL: They're pounding nails
	5:37pm StringOFperils: LOL
	5:37pm Monica: Oh, wait! Didn't realize filling-in for Irwin was conditional on Framptonian content.
	5:37pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:36 Indeed - the pictures show holding a shamisen against the body, while the koto are larger, tabletop instruments plucked while wearing metal finger-tips.
	5:38pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:26 this will sound strange to some people, and i only just thought of it and may be missing something... but i think if there were no Warhol and no Epstein, the velvet underground stood a better chance of becoming well-known than the beatles. ...because of timing; and because vu probably would've replaced mo with a real drummer and found a place in the garage/psych world. beatles were just an exceptional bar band. rejected by one label after another. we'll never know.
	5:38pm Beetlemuse: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:35 If you watch the video its a 3 stringed instrument so I'd go with shamisen :)
	5:38pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:35 I Love this one! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcqO0zkyQRo
	👻 5:38pm Mxter Baba: Vout-o-reeni! Well, shucks!!!
	5:38pm Irwin: ↳ Monica @5:37 There's a rider, Mo. You didn't get the second memo?
	5:38pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Monica @5:37 "Frampton-adjacent" is acceptable...
	5:38pm Laura L: ↳ Monica @5:37 We won't tell if you do or you don't!
	5:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Shamisen (as in Tokyo Groove track) : www.proverbs2525.org... Koto : sonica.jp...
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:38 ...after all - he's in you...
	5:39pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Beetlemuse @5:38 Ah, in the Tokyo Groove Jyoshi video? That confirms it! We can say "shamisen" with confidence now! 🙂
	5:39pm Marie in Chicago: I loved the rest stop line
	5:40pm Glistener MW: I’m quite enjoying this timely update to “You’re the top” now that cellophane is [APPARENTLY] no longer cool or fashionable anymore [or so Gen Z tells me.]
	5:40pm judy from croton: The best
	5:40pm Brendan: Thanks Gus. You're the bees knees and a swell guy too.
	5:40pm StringOFperils: Gus. You're the top, you're a medium pizza.
	5:40pm LC: this is great!
	5:40pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "You're the Goods" by "Gus Bodenheim" WFMU, home of the Genuine, not the Pseudos!! 😄
	👻 5:41pm Tom in St. Paul: "You're a perfect Rick Roll" – wonder what that would look like
	👻 5:41pm Mxter Baba: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 100% freeform for the deform!
	5:41pm Ochre Ogre: Shamisen Girls Ki&Ki, check them out!
	5:41pm wenzo: Waddupdoe!
	5:42pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:37 koto usually played at floor level; but the chinese instrument that is basically a koto, hundreds of years before "koto", (the guszeng -sp??) i think was often played on a table.
	5:42pm LC: ↳ Song: "Pandas" by "Mike Dillon (ft. Brian Haas & Nikki G... love this
	5:42pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Mxter Baba @5:41 Mxter Baba, for the win!!
	👻 5:43pm 12539: Thanks, Irwin!
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:38 - this assessment of TheBeatles is of course intended to provoke. It's nonsense. Epstein himself remarked that Lennon would've made a mark in Arts. Let alone Lennon-McCartney. Epstein got them in synch with ShowBiz... As for the VUs & Warhol tho - was in fact thinking maybe they woulda got traction as just a Good Band more without Andy's circus ! ...but it's all What Ifs. Counterfactuals... What about the piSToLS & 'mismanager' Malcolm ? But they probly wouldn't have existed @ all...
	5:45pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:42 At least from the article, modern photos show performers playing koto on raised platforms, at least at concerts, while the older drawing shows a woman reclining on the floor while playing it, which is probably the more traditional way (Japanese tradition seems to prefer things closer to the ground).
	5:46pm coelacanth∅: "this assessment of TheBeatles is of course intended to provoke. It's nonsense" your ASSumption is 100% incorrect. and yes, Lennon, a visual artist. not the beatles.
	5:46pm Monica: ↳ Laura L @5:38 Thx, Laura L and Matt. I clearly failed to read the fine print. Irwin, did your fave singers Ella Fitzgerald do any Frampton covers?
	5:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:46 & they were TheBeatles before Epstein.
	5:47pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:38 weren't The Beatles rejected only by Decca?
	5:47pm brycepunk1: Really cool song
	5:47pm StringOFperils: ↳ Monica @5:46 A Tisket A Tasket I'm In Your Basket
	5:47pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Monica @5:46 Zing! 😊
	5:47pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:45 yeah, probably now. it's just tradition. and actually i don't know what the traditional way of playinng the gusheng was.
	5:48pm LC: ↳ brycepunk1 @5:47 agreed
	👻 5:48pm Tom in St. Paul: ↳ Song: "Grand Central" by "Mr. Griddles" this has a post-Moondog vibe
	5:48pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Monica @5:46 Oh, snap!
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:47 TheBeatles were rejected by every Label until George Martin @ Parlophone - know for his work mostly in Comedy - gave them a go. As he was looking for a Pop act to change his fortunes...
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:48 - they were, after all, Northerners from Liverpool.
	5:50pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:47 yes, but they were a bar band. the majority of great bar bands never get signed, you know that. every member was on the verge of quitting time & time again until Brian came along. and they apparently were rejected over and over. emi was one of Epstein's last hopes, at least in the big league. (at least, according to the beatles themselves, in "anthology")
	5:51pm Laura L: 10 to 6 already! Thanks for a very fine show, Irwin & Gus.
	5:51pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "I'll Pray for You" by "Love" R&R w/ Psychedelic lyrics!
	5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:47 ...Decca gave them an Audition (1/1/62) - which was Taped - & rejected them in favor of the Tremoloes. Cause the Tremeloes were Local Londoners... Harrison later recommended the Stones to the same guy. Which isn't too bad... For one thing - Ringo took over from PeteBest almost exactly when they started Recording with Martin. Which made a large difference...
	5:53pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Irwin. Take care, all.
	5:53pm Ochre Ogre: Reckon VU might have ended up like The Seeds, The Sonics or... We'll never know.?
	5:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:50 That much is all factual.
	5:54pm Irwin: ↳ Monica @5:46 Dig around, Mo. Maybe Ella covered "Show Me the Way." That counts towards Frampton fulfillment.
	5:55pm PaulRobeson1924: Anything off the Eterna label?
	5:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:53 People make the counter argument (so to speak) that the VUs did have a following on a certain circuit of venues. Which isn't selling records...
	👻 5:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Monica @5:37 If you have a Frampton image for Mr. Turntables, maybe that's the answer?
	5:56pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:55 The VU are non people
	5:56pm listener 126464: Thank you, Irwin!!
	5:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Recycling" by "Jazzagenturen, Krister Andersson &... All that Snazz, plus classic Jazz.. THANKS Irwin! Another great listen!

	5:58pm Brendan: Suddenly the day turns into night. Thanks one and all .
	5:58pm LC: thanks Irwin, enjoyed the show and the comments too!
	5:59pm maurer: cheers!
	5:59pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Recycling" by "Jazzagenturen, Krister Andersson &... @RevRab: Here we go with that Drumming again, the Rhythmarchy marches on...🙄
	5:59pm HyperDose: Thanks, Irwin!
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:59 Loves Jazz Drummerz
