If I may be serious for a moment (and I can), let me say that this morning's show is yet another example of how much I learn each time I tune into (log onto) WFMU. As a superficial consumer of pop music throughout my life, I was not exposed to the breadth and depth of music that WFMU exposes in its immense library. I thank that special person who provided the gateway to this door of perception. Pluck your string...

If memory serves I bought Heartful of Soul and You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling on the same day. Early '65? What a great year, the music changed its shape and the LP became credible.

This show will lack for CanCon if there's no Poppy Family. You do want Canadians to like your show, don't you, Joe?

Chris from DC:

One or two overnights a week on one station there's good freeform jazz and experimental music on, but otherwise DC is a wasteland.

@Gaylord: I have the first Poppy LP with me. Should I hit "Free from the City"?

Joe, will there be a 'phasing' set? Did you folks call it that?

@ Brian: Good call on Dantalian's Chariot, not a band we heard much here. And your comment about English R&B groups suddenly wearing kaftans and growing their hair sums up a huge chapter of rock evolution at a particular point.
