	👻 9:04am Ken From Hyde Park: Which came first, The Yips' opening notes or the one riff from The Edgar Winter Group's "Frankenstein"?
	9:08am Guido from Cologne: Hello Joe! Sometimes I feel like a curiositiy myself ... hehehe ... (Still waiting for the CD to arrive and very curious about how this comp is ...)
	9:09am Uncle Michael: I believe Spirulina was a hot breakfast cereal, shaped like fusilli.
	9:09am Bronwyn Bishop: Boo!
	9:10am Brendan: Spirulina the name evokes Soylent Green but this sounds great like a trippy version of an Allman Bros jam
	9:11am pantz: I got a rock. Good morning, Oh Great and Mighty Pumpkin.
	9:13am annie: actually Brendan, there are plans afoot to create spirulina from very questionable ingredients, NOT seaweed.
	9:14am sphere: hello Joe and all :)
	9:15am bill: wow good morning indeed!
	9:15am MD: Happy Scary Halloween! To all! A beautiful fall day here on the "right" Coast...Great Trick or Treat weather!!! Just don't be scary clown! Oh did I mention Mr Trump!!!
	9:15am Guido from Cologne: Spirulina platensis is an alga
	9:17am JakeGhould: Boo!
	9:18am Joe McG: I will not be scared. I will not be scared.
	9:23am Brendan: Bossaween
	9:23am Bronwyn Bishop: I like this song better when it's about a female arsonist.
	9:23am JakeGhould: Boo.
	9:26am bill: i don't think Brasil 66 ever did a bad song
	9:27am Roberto: Play Eleanor Rigby!
	9:28am Brendan: Be afraid. Be very afraid.
	9:28am JakeGhould: Persistent boo.
	9:28am sphere: Do we want to go there, Roberto? :)
	9:29am Joe McG: @Roberto: Ha! That was a different Halloween show.
	9:29am bobdoesthings: goodmorning
	9:30am Roberto: Well it would be the quickest way to scare the buhjeezus out of everybody.
	9:33am Sem Chumbo: A good morning to you, Joe, and clan McGasko.
	9:34am bobdoesthings: GEEEEEEBUZZZ
	9:36am Sem Chumbo: That background sample is from the intro to some JCSS tune...
	9:36am Joe McG: Good morning to everyone, and Happy Halloween, even if it's pretty much over.
	9:37am Brendan: Whew that was close. One more Beatles cover would've triggered the Emergency Alert System
	9:37am Joe McG: @Brendan: Ha ha ha!
	9:37am pantz: Y'know what scares me, Joe? That this might be the last Halloween we get to share on WFMU. What's the straight poop over there? Is it as bad as it sounds?
	9:39am Joe McG: @pantz: Scares me, too! If anyone reading this or listening hasn't donated yet, help us out by clicking on the pledge now button at the top of the playlist.
	9:39am sphere: i've donated.
	9:39am Brendan: They were good covers that strayed far from the originals. My fave kind.
	9:41am Joe McG: Many thanks, sphere, and anyone else who has helped us in this time of need.
	9:41am MD: Nice Version!
	9:42am annie: i'd like to see trick-or-treating return to october 31st... enough of this candy-ass weekend t-o-t-ing
	9:43am Joe McG: There's a woman dancing in our parking lot. Clearly not listening to my show.
	9:43am pantz: @annie I thought the weekend before Halloween was always for the grown-ups and Halloween was for the kids. I hope so, because I have so much candy yet to be handed out.
	9:45am annie: pantz, i agree.. let's make that a national event
	9:46am annie: well, i'm outta here, some shopping and grabbing a sunday NYT at Earth Fare...
	9:52am Sem Chumbo: Just thinking that James Brown's vocal tics might have been a weird kinda of Tourettes.
	9:59am Parq: "Robert Mitchum"?
	10:01am liz: no Boney M. version????? what the hell.
	10:04am JakeGhould: @JoeMcG: You have a problem with random people dancing in parking lots?
	10:05am βrian: I'm not doing halloween this year. Too much angst and worry in the air.
	10:05am MD: The Song Smiths!!!
	10:06am Greg from ZONE 5: Happy Halloween, Joe McGaSKULL! See what I did there? It's true—not a lot of Smiths on FMU. Pretty much just Jonesy.
	10:07am lloyd michigan: Marr and Moz talking about a reunion.
	10:09am Joe McG: Hi, Greg! Here's some today! @lloyd: Are you serious?
	10:09am MD: @ Greg...I see what you did there! you made Joe's name scary!! You Zone 5 people ROCK!!!
	10:10am Marc Francis: Happy Halloween! Yep, Smiths reunion talk! I thought that's why you were playing them?
	10:11am βrian: Has anyone done an exegesis of these lyrics?
	10:11am Joe McG: @Marc: No, hadn't heard. What a bad idea!
	10:12am Brendan: Theres an article on Marr in the Guardian
	10:15am lloyd michigan: Too early for words like exegesis.
	10:16am Marc Francis: @JoeMcG: I 100% agree!
	10:16am Marc Francis: Terrible idea...
	10:16am lloyd michigan: Sorry, Joe. Didn't see that. Yes there is talk of a Smiths reunion.
	10:17am βrian: I hear the Smiths; I think of jelly beans.
	👻 10:18am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Annabella Lwin in fifty today. Never I hear you say. Just a number.
	10:20am Joe McG: @Brian: Oh, that's a nice birthday. Maybe I'll go get some Bow Wow.
	10:22am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, MD! Halloween is big in Zone 5. Bigger than Christmas.
	👻 10:22am Brian in UK: Reunion, over Morrissey's dead body. Hmmm.
	10:23am lloyd michigan: Now it all makes sense why she wanted candy so much. Born on Halloween.
	10:25am Joe McG: @lloyd: ha ha!
	10:26am Marc Francis: @Loyd: Hahahahaaa!
	👻 10:27am Brian in UK: Candy by Terry Southern. Ewa Aulin played the lead, not for her acting skills. Marlon Brando walking eyes closed through it. Still enjoyed it at the time. Liked The Byrds song of the same name.
	10:27am melinda: Bow wow wow, yay!
	10:28am melinda: I don't know the song but recognized the percussion.
	10:28am Jeffy Jazz: That was great! Nice Monday waker-upper!
	10:29am Jeffy Jazz: That Ant-like percussion! haha
	10:30am lloyd michigan: I try. :)
	10:31am lloyd michigan: Wasn't Ringo in Candy?
	10:32am JahDaddy...: I'm awake now!
	👻 10:33am Brian in UK: lloyd the whole world was in(side) Candy. Ringo played a dodgy gardiner.
	10:33am JakeGhould: @JeffyJazz: It is Adam Ant's band. Bow Wow Wow was formed when Malcolm McLaren saw Adam and the Ants, liked their style but wanted a woman lead. Stole the band, put Annabella up front at the mere age of 14 and... Et viola!
	10:35am lloyd michigan: Bad movie, but great cast.
	👻 10:35am Brian in UK: Was it Manet's Le dejeune sur l'herbe that they pastiched on the BWW cover?
	👻 10:37am Brian in UK: Really short at work today. Working on a skeleton staff.
	10:37am lloyd michigan: @Joe, got Marie Laveau (sp?) by Bobby Bare?
	10:37am Joe McG: @Brian: It was Manet, but I don't remember the title of the painting. Young girl at picnic, guys with beards.
	10:39am Joe McG: @lloyd: Sorry, I don't have that one!
	10:40am Mike East: Ok I did it...pledge is in. Hopefully lots more like me who just haven't gotten around to sending in their tithe yet. There's still time, folks!!!!
	10:41am Joe McG: Many thank, Mike!
	10:42am bill: why do 45s sound so good. is it because the grooves are more compressed?
	10:43am βrian: A skeleton staff on halloween? Seems right.
	👻 10:43am doctorjazz: 45's do sound good, I hear it over the radio...the faster speed makes for less distortion and more punch!
	10:43am Andrew Waterloo: grooves are deeper?
	10:44am bill: the other thing is, when did 45s go from mono to stereo?
	10:46am bill: lps were 1968, but 45s were later
	10:48am lloyd michigan: Mia sounding wonderfully creepy.
	10:48am βrian: What was in Rosemary's locket, again?
	10:48am Greg from ZONE 5: In 2016, Rosemary's Baby achieved Favorite Movie status. It's not #1, but it will now be considered beside my other all-timers.
	10:48am Greg from ZONE 5: @βrian: Tannis root
	👻 10:48am Brian in UK: bill stereo only matters on the equipment at least for singles. Who ever had that with their early 45s. Was Sgt Pepper in stereo?
	10:50am Brendan: Shadows on the Wall makes me think of the Inflatable Boy Clams 'Skeleton ' song about the skeleton dancing on the wall
	10:51am Jeff: That Redbone "Witch Queen..." reminded me (and I'm chuffed I was able to look the exact name up): I remember hearing Vin Scelsa say that "Marie La Peau" by Salloom, Sinclair & The Mother Bear was a big WFMU hit back in the day. Like late-sixties back in the day.
	10:51am βrian: Ah, I was pretty sure it wasn't asafoetida.
	10:51am lloyd michigan: SOTW reminds me of a Night Gallery episode.
	10:52am Jim Price: .... or Simon and Garfunkel's "Patterns".
	10:52am Parq: Jeez, who knew the all-loving God was so scary?
	10:54am Mick: @Parq - you ain't kidding!
	10:55am Parq: Real headline I just saw on Google News: "Did the Loch Ness Monster Move to Alaska?"
	10:56am pantz: What is this? The Chipminks meet P-Funk?
	👻 10:56am Brian in UK: H@Parq he left the Fair Banks of Loch Lomond?
	10:56am Joe McG: @pantz: Pretty close!
	10:58am βrian: Imagine that single @ 78 rpm!
	10:58am Parq: That should have been on Amanda's 2015 "Squeaky Feelings" premium.
	10:58am Joe McG: @Brian: Whoah! I might have to try that!
	11:01am bill: Brian: in the US, pepper came out in mono and stereo. I am not sure about the UK. But I do know that the Beatles payed more attention to the mono mixes---don't forget, most people in those days used one speaker record players of transistor radios
	11:03am Mike East: I had an idea for an Alvin & the Chipmunks movie (my daughter was watching one yesterday)...a rival chipmunk becomes a pop star by slowing down his vocals to sound like a normal human singer. Alvin and his brothers are faced with the choice of whether to slow down their vocals to compete or keep it real.
	11:06am Joe McG: @Mike: Development deal on the way!
	11:07am JakeGhould: That is a great film idea!
	11:08am Stevel: I definitely do not want Farmer's Lung.
	👻 11:08am Brian in UK: @Mike East remember the final shot of Yellow Submarine where the Beatles appear as themselves. You could have the Chipmunks do the same at the end of the film.
	👻 11:10am Brian in UK: ...and backwards.
	11:10am βrian: I'll have what they're having.
	11:23am βrian: A face made for clabbering.
	11:23am pantz: This is excellent stuff, Joe. Rev Gates has shown me the light. Hail glory!
	11:24am JakeGhould: If this conversation were in Yiddish it would be just like every Yenta conversation I heard as a kid.
	11:24am Joe McG: Say "kitty kitty kitty."
	11:25am JakeGhould: Nah, they wouldn't have said that.
	11:26am Vincent Nifigance: Wow. This Washington Phillips song is incredible.
	11:28am Joe McG: @Vincent: His music has been reissued a number of times, but this latest Dust to Digital version is the one to get.
	11:33am Vincent Nifigance: @JoeMcG Will definitely do that, thanks.
	11:37am pantz: Jim Sullivan sounds a lot like Procol Harum. Any relation?
	11:38am Joe McG: @pantz: No, but I hear what you're hearing!
	👻 11:41am Brian in UK: That's not Big Jim Sullivan?
	11:41am βrian: I'm naming my next kid Shuggie.
	11:41am Joe McG: @Brian: No, different dude.
	11:42am Sem Chumbo: Glad to hear Shuggie and Al this AM, Joe. Marvelous.
	11:43am Brendan: I hear Jim Sullivan in Tim Hardin's singing and songwriting
	11:43am Joe McG: @Sem: I was going to play "Lookin' for a Home," but thematically I thought that Jim Sullivan needed some balance. Cremation vs. burial!
	11:44am Brendan: Ironically there was no body found for Jim
	11:45am Joe McG: @Brendan: True! Jim went to the desert and never came back. Body never found.
	11:47am Sem Chumbo: OK, Mr. Natural, burying wins:-D
	11:49am Brendan: He was a somebody but kind of a nobody
	11:54am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting today, everyone. I hope you have a great Halloween and start to November! See you next week with a live set from Mary Lattimore.
	👻 11:55am Brian in UK: Great show, Joe.
	11:58am Brendan: Bad joke to go. What do people from (insert inbred state name) for Halloween? Pumpkin.

	👻 10:22am Brian in UK: Reunion, over Morrissey's dead body. Hmmm.
	10:23am lloyd michigan: Now it all makes sense why she wanted candy so much. Born on Halloween.
	10:25am Joe McG: @lloyd: ha ha!
	10:26am Marc Francis: @Loyd: Hahahahaaa!
	👻 10:27am Brian in UK: Candy by Terry Southern. Ewa Aulin played the lead, not for her acting skills. Marlon Brando walking eyes closed through it. Still enjoyed it at the time. Liked The Byrds song of the same name.
	10:27am melinda: Bow wow wow, yay!
	10:28am melinda: I don't know the song but recognized the percussion.
	10:28am Jeffy Jazz: That was great! Nice Monday waker-upper!
	10:29am Jeffy Jazz: That Ant-like percussion! haha
	10:30am lloyd michigan: I try. :)
	10:31am lloyd michigan: Wasn't Ringo in Candy?
	10:32am JahDaddy...: I'm awake now!
	👻 10:33am Brian in UK: lloyd the whole world was in(side) Candy. Ringo played a dodgy gardiner.
	10:33am JakeGhould: @JeffyJazz: It is Adam Ant's band. Bow Wow Wow was formed when Malcolm McLaren saw Adam and the Ants, liked their style but wanted a woman lead. Stole the band, put Annabella up front at the mere age of 14 and... Et viola!
	10:35am lloyd michigan: Bad movie, but great cast.
	👻 10:35am Brian in UK: Was it Manet's Le dejeune sur l'herbe that they pastiched on the BWW cover?
	👻 10:37am Brian in UK: Really short at work today. Working on a skeleton staff.
	10:37am lloyd michigan: @Joe, got Marie Laveau (sp?) by Bobby Bare?
	10:37am Joe McG: @Brian: It was Manet, but I don't remember the title of the painting. Young girl at picnic, guys with beards.
	10:39am Joe McG: @lloyd: Sorry, I don't have that one!
	10:40am Mike East: Ok I did it...pledge is in. Hopefully lots more like me who just haven't gotten around to sending in their tithe yet. There's still time, folks!!!!
	10:41am Joe McG: Many thank, Mike!
	10:42am bill: why do 45s sound so good. is it because the grooves are more compressed?
	10:43am βrian: A skeleton staff on halloween? Seems right.
	👻 10:43am doctorjazz: 45's do sound good, I hear it over the radio...the faster speed makes for less distortion and more punch!
	10:43am Andrew Waterloo: grooves are deeper?
	10:44am bill: the other thing is, when did 45s go from mono to stereo?
	10:46am bill: lps were 1968, but 45s were later
	10:48am lloyd michigan: Mia sounding wonderfully creepy.
	10:48am βrian: What was in Rosemary's locket, again?
	10:48am Greg from ZONE 5: In 2016, Rosemary's Baby achieved Favorite Movie status. It's not #1, but it will now be considered beside my other all-timers.
	10:48am Greg from ZONE 5: @βrian: Tannis root
	👻 10:48am Brian in UK: bill stereo only matters on the equipment at least for singles. Who ever had that with their early 45s. Was Sgt Pepper in stereo?
	10:50am Brendan: Shadows on the Wall makes me think of the Inflatable Boy Clams 'Skeleton ' song about the skeleton dancing on the wall
	10:51am Jeff: That Redbone "Witch Queen..." reminded me (and I'm chuffed I was able to look the exact name up): I remember hearing Vin Scelsa say that "Marie La Peau" by Salloom, Sinclair & The Mother Bear was a big WFMU hit back in the day. Like late-sixties back in the day.
	10:51am βrian: Ah, I was pretty sure it wasn't asafoetida.
	10:51am lloyd michigan: SOTW reminds me of a Night Gallery episode.
	10:52am Jim Price: .... or Simon and Garfunkel's "Patterns".
	10:52am Parq: Jeez, who knew the all-loving God was so scary?
	10:54am Mick: @Parq - you ain't kidding!
	10:55am Parq: Real headline I just saw on Google News: "Did the Loch Ness Monster Move to Alaska?"
	10:56am pantz: What is this? The Chipminks meet P-Funk?
	👻 10:56am Brian in UK: H@Parq he left the Fair Banks of Loch Lomond?
	10:56am Joe McG: @pantz: Pretty close!
	10:58am βrian: Imagine that single @ 78 rpm!
	10:58am Parq: That should have been on Amanda's 2015 "Squeaky Feelings" premium.
	10:58am Joe McG: @Brian: Whoah! I might have to try that!
	11:01am bill: Brian: in the US, pepper came out in mono and stereo. I am not sure about the UK. But I do know that the Beatles payed more attention to the mono mixes---don't forget, most people in those days used one speaker record players of transistor radios
	11:03am Mike East: I had an idea for an Alvin & the Chipmunks movie (my daughter was watching one yesterday)...a rival chipmunk becomes a pop star by slowing down his vocals to sound like a normal human singer. Alvin and his brothers are faced with the choice of whether to slow down their vocals to compete or keep it real.
	11:06am Joe McG: @Mike: Development deal on the way!
	11:07am JakeGhould: That is a great film idea!
	11:08am Stevel: I definitely do not want Farmer's Lung.
	👻 11:08am Brian in UK: @Mike East remember the final shot of Yellow Submarine where the Beatles appear as themselves. You could have the Chipmunks do the same at the end of the film.
	👻 11:10am Brian in UK: ...and backwards.
	11:10am βrian: I'll have what they're having.
	11:23am βrian: A face made for clabbering.
	11:23am pantz: This is excellent stuff, Joe. Rev Gates has shown me the light. Hail glory!
	11:24am JakeGhould: If this conversation were in Yiddish it would be just like every Yenta conversation I heard as a kid.
	11:24am Joe McG: Say "kitty kitty kitty."
	11:25am JakeGhould: Nah, they wouldn't have said that.
	11:26am Vincent Nifigance: Wow. This Washington Phillips song is incredible.
	11:28am Joe McG: @Vincent: His music has been reissued a number of times, but this latest Dust to Digital version is the one to get.
	11:33am Vincent Nifigance: @JoeMcG Will definitely do that, thanks.
	11:37am pantz: Jim Sullivan sounds a lot like Procol Harum. Any relation?
	11:38am Joe McG: @pantz: No, but I hear what you're hearing!
	👻 11:41am Brian in UK: That's not Big Jim Sullivan?
	11:41am βrian: I'm naming my next kid Shuggie.
	11:41am Joe McG: @Brian: No, different dude.
	11:42am Sem Chumbo: Glad to hear Shuggie and Al this AM, Joe. Marvelous.
	11:43am Brendan: I hear Jim Sullivan in Tim Hardin's singing and songwriting
	11:43am Joe McG: @Sem: I was going to play "Lookin' for a Home," but thematically I thought that Jim Sullivan needed some balance. Cremation vs. burial!
	11:44am Brendan: Ironically there was no body found for Jim
	11:45am Joe McG: @Brendan: True! Jim went to the desert and never came back. Body never found.
	11:47am Sem Chumbo: OK, Mr. Natural, burying wins:-D
	11:49am Brendan: He was a somebody but kind of a nobody
	11:54am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting today, everyone. I hope you have a great Halloween and start to November! See you next week with a live set from Mary Lattimore.
	👻 11:55am Brian in UK: Great show, Joe.
	11:58am Brendan: Bad joke to go. What do people from (insert inbred state name) for Halloween? Pumpkin.
