I get the impression Moby Grape existed in a period where "professional" meant a lot of things.

Pledge this hour and get in our prize drawing. $20 or more gets you a chance at the Paul Major "Feel the Music" anthology CD, Fumio Miyashita "Live On The Boffomundo Show" LP, or Gunn-Truscinski Duo "Bay Head" LP!

My God, people are still equating online music lovers with thieves. Not everyone makes a million dollars every month to buy 5000 albums like FMU can afford. Musicians don't deserve to be millionaires.

That's a good point about "human curating", Jeff -- I do sometimes use Pandora, but it's an incredible amount of work to keep it from playing all sorts of irrelevant crap.

All those streaming services suck, and they make you pay if you say, want to hear the Kinks but not mostly their 80s stuff!

Adam West Coaster:

Thank you so much, Jeff and Cheyenne! I am very excited to hear the live Fumio Miyashita release!!! I was pretty certain I *wouldn’t* win it. I just thought I’d dream out loud in mentioning it. WFMU is my real prize! I am what folks would call “poverty level.” Haha. But, I keep on “swagging for life” for the station, because I love this community, beyond mere words. ❤️

Tony Bourdain, who I admire, says he would fire anyone who played the Dead in HIS kitchen. So I guess he would have to fire me.

One time I was on a road trip through Wisconsin and the Dead came on TWICE, and both times he was into it until they backannounced what played, and changed the station, ha ha

Love the early raw stuff

the 68 and 69 live dead is always good I think I heard 90% of the dark star the eleven jams so viola lee blues is sounding super fresh tonite

87-93 dead was the only dead I saw live. IDK why it gets a bad rap except that old timers still don’t like us touch heads.

That's why my co-host last week (Dave, an American ex-pat who lives in Germany) pronounced it GEE-doh, whereas I've always thought it's GWEE-doh because I live in New Jersey. Make of that comment what you will.
