WFMU: Scott Williams: Playlist from January 14, 2019

Listener comments!
	2:57pm JakeGould: Scott? Whenever you play the long Unrest track I get worried.
	♥ 3:02pm Stanley: Sunflare - Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
	🧩 ♥ 3:02pm chris: \m/
	♥ 3:03pm Henry in Hopatcong: Hello Scott!
	3:04pm Chris from DC: Mostly empty office. Cranking. Proceed.
	♥ 3:06pm fred: Good afternoon Scott and listeners
	3:10pm Andy the painter: oh yeah. that FFKT track! bringin’ back the golden sounds of the eighties! hey scott, thanks!
	🧩 ♥ 3:11pm chresti: Hello Scott and folks
	♥ 3:20pm Scott Williams: Hey pals! Busy up in this place today, glad you're here
	3:25pm Andy the painter: yer on fire, babe
	3:26pm what an excellent transition: that was
	🧩 ♥ 3:27pm ThuddNugget: Enjoying the show today, Scott! Happy Monday.
	🧩 ♥ 3:27pm tim from champaign: No wonder I thought the Elephant's Memory sounded like Broadcast.
	♥ 3:27pm Passaic River Blues: Scott, I was just thinking, as you were playing "Old Man Willow", how much Broadcast reflected the influence of Elephant's Memory. United States of America is obviously a more direct and much discussed influence, but it's there nevertheless. Also, as others have noted, dope transition duly noted.
	♥ 3:30pm steveo: i've heard some of these songs before, so when you tell us the titles, i'll know you're telling the truth
	🧩 ♥ 3:30pm ɛɛɛɨk: I like cans.
	🧩 ♥ 3:30pm listener james from westwood: "He hates these cans!"
	3:31pm Ochre Ogre: Hi Scott, Elephant's Memory into Broadcast, NICE!
	🧩 ♥ 3:37pm Franco Twinkie: Scott, who are you yelling at? Is someone trying to get at you're pastrami sandwich?
	♥ 3:37pm RomanDogBird: dang scott, just when i was about to go out for a walk
	3:38pm David: You know: 3 chord monte already played this today?!
	♥ 3:39pm RomanDogBird: every show should play this
	3:39pm pp: because he Can
	♥ 3:41pm TonyR: LOL now I get to post my comment about "Unrest" which got eaten during Belock's show: Perfect jam to accompany that post-lunch sugar crash at work... It's keeping me going! (Again!!)
	3:44pm JakeGould: Oh no! Here we go again. MORE UNREST LONG TRACK.
	♥ 3:45pm Jeff Moore: Oh yes! Here we go again. MORE UNREST LONG TRACK.
	♥ 3:45pm Jeff Moore: (FTFY)
	🧩 ♥ 3:45pm Yvang: Mother Skyish : I love it!
	3:46pm yes: hooray!
	♥ 3:47pm pinholga: Maybe the real Unrest was the friends we made along the way.
	3:48pm Andy the painter: does this mean that mark hirsch has to play it too? he only has an hour....
	3:50pm JakeGould: @JeffMoore: You know lots of my Eastern European negativity has an underlying positivity to it, right?
	♥ 3:50pm steveo: mcgasko said the library is further away now; maybe this is the go-to track for library trips
	3:51pm Chris from DC: yay, more Unrest
	♥ 3:51pm Jeff Moore: @JakeGould: I love you, you asshole.
	3:52pm JakeGould: @JeffMoore: Shut up you wonderful son of a binch.
	3:52pm JakeGould: FWIW, “binch” is a great new bit of slang.
	3:53pm Paul D: does anyone know what years r. stevie moore had a radio show on wfmu
	♥ 3:53pm Jeff Moore: Right?
	3:53pm JakeGould: Perfect. Kids can say “binch.”
	3:54pm Chris from DC: Total DC inside baseball, but this sounds a lot like Plums.
	3:54pm Balls_Benedict: loving this Unrest
	3:54pm zpulpa: haha Nice to rock out to this song twice in one afternoon! hell yeah!
	3:55pm TDK60: Signed in. Hiya Scott DJ.
	♥ 3:56pm Barney Grubbs: we need an 8-hr chopped & screwed version of Hydro
	♥ 3:58pm Passaic River Blues: @Paul D: I'm not sure, but I believe it was the early to mid 80s (though he's been on various shows many times since then).
	🧩 ♥ 3:58pm chresti: This reminds me of ...a track by Slug (I think that's the name)
	♥ 3:58pm steveo: R. Stevie has a playlist page wfmu.org...
	3:59pm Ochre Ogre: So much unrest in the world, I like it
	♥ 3:59pm Jeff Moore: @Paul D: not sure exactly when RSM had a show, but there are some random-seeming archives here: www.wfmu.org...
	4:00pm Paul D: thanks passaic and steveo
	🧩 ♥ 4:02pm tim from champaign: Scott - tractor it up and keep the Unrest jam going!
	4:03pm david_: DC in the house! Shout-out to federal workers
	♥ 4:06pm Greg from ZONE 5: Scotty! Commenters! Unrest!
	🧩 ♥ 4:06pm mcgreivey: Q: what are the odds of tune in during Hydro? A: not bad, since it's 33:something long, and this is when I always tune in on Mondays.
	4:06pm @fumanchiuonthis: Love this.....Branca-esque
	🧩 ♥ 4:07pm mcgreivey: I want to stay a cover band that plays only "Hydro".
	♥ 4:07pm Scott Williams: @mcgreivey, today the odds are 1/24
	🧩 ♥ 4:08pm Yvang: No Unrest for the unwicked!
	♥ 4:09pm steveo: i got excited about that escalating chord progression there but then it just settled back down to regular non-escalating
	🧩 ♥ 4:09pm chresti: I love long, guitar driven songs
	♥ 4:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Scott and playlist pals. Enjoying the Joe McGasko birthday cake? I assume there was a cake. Hopefully, one without doorknob shavings inside.
	♥ 4:09pm steveo: ah it was a signal!
	♥ 4:10pm Barney Grubbs: "EP"!
	🧩 ♥ 4:10pm tim from champaign: EP in the truest sense - Extended Play!
	🧩 ♥ 4:11pm mcgreivey: *start
	♥ 4:12pm steveo: i want to start a radio station that plays only hydro
	4:14pm JakeGould: Now place that long Sleep track and go home.
	🧩 ♥ 4:14pm mcgreivey: @steveo and "Do the Robot!", too.
	♥ 4:14pm steveo: splice together a 1-year long version that ends each year at midnight on new year's day, then one minute of npr news before restarting the 1-year long version all over again
	♥ 4:14pm steveo: i'll have to look that one up, mcg
	🧩 ♥ 4:15pm mcgreivey: <<<<<<<<<<<
	4:15pm Chris from DC: An Unrest Stream. I like it.
	♥ 4:15pm steveo: oh hahah slaps forehead
	4:16pm Johnzon: this is awesome
	4:18pm northguineahills: Well, this Jimmy Castor version exists, didn't expect that...
	🧩 ♥ 4:19pm Franco Twinkie: I took a nap during Unrest. Is that appropriate? I woke up when I smelled something burning in the kitchen.
	4:21pm John: One thing I have noticed since I started getting into this station, is that there are no bad programs at all
	4:22pm TDK60: If Unrest were hippies, a few on the comments board would call it "noodling" hee.
	4:22pm northguineahills: What John said....
	♥ 4:22pm Passaic River Blues: So far everything in the cart sounds lovely to me.
	4:22pm melinda: Hi Scott and everyone!
	4:22pm JakeGould: @John: Welcome aboard! And you clearly haven’t been listening long enough.
	♥ 4:23pm steveo: john, what about the shows that are intentionally terrible?
	4:24pm pie: do we see aphex in april
	♥ 4:24pm rsj: was watching some football, was it an apple ad that was a rip off of aphex twin's come to daddy video? instead of the midgets it was iphone zombies (presumably) this may all be a hallucination...
	🧩 ♥ 4:25pm dale: sam ho was too good there.
	4:25pm JakeGould: A few of the shows on WFMU are like a blender and a power drilled mixed into a few guitar pedals with random screaming.
	♥ 4:26pm steveo: try to play the inside of the spindle hole!
	🧩 ♥ 4:26pm Roger: a mighty fine show today, mr Williams
	♥ 4:26pm Webhamster Henry: I think a show of rejecting playing records would be very WFMU. But you need to bring in one of those clanky-sounding automatic turntables.
	4:27pm John: @jake although the other day the boom boom show started off shaky and it was great
	🧩 ♥ 4:28pm mcgreivey: @steveo The shows that are trying to be bad are obviously failing.
	4:28pm TDK60: Nick Drake's mother. Really? Never heard of...yet.
	♥ 4:28pm steveo: so they're bad at being bad? so meta.
	🧩 ♥ 4:29pm Franco Twinkie: Sam Ho, Don's less talented brother who worked as a CPA until his wife left with the kids and he could do what he wanted for the first time in his life. I think.
	4:31pm TDK60: I hear a connection between mother and son Drake. // Tim B. is back again.
	♥ 4:31pm Scott Williams: @Franco Twinkie, I'll buy it
	4:31pm Johnzon: Molly Drake's music and poetry featured in a skin to few the nick drake doc. on youtube... really good film
	4:32pm mb: You've got a real mood matcher of a show here, DJ Scott Williams. And i thank you.
	🧩 ♥ 4:32pm chresti: Time hung still...
	4:32pm melinda: I like Tim Buckley, his music is well-suited to cold weather.
	4:33pm JakeGould: @Franco: What about Do Ho’s sister, Helpa Ho?
	♥ 4:33pm steveo: i wonder if tim hangs out with sandy denny in heaven
	4:34pm prudy: ill take Tim Buckley any day any time
	♥ 4:34pm Webhamster Henry: @JakeGould .. what about Heidi Ho?
	🧩 ♥ 4:36pm mcgreivey: Somehow, Lorca is my least favorite Tom Buckley record, aside from a couple of the late ones. I reach for others first.
	🧩 ♥ 4:38pm mcgreivey: Wait. Philip Gayle, but not Eugene Chadbourne? [Scratches head]
	4:38pm TDK60: ..it would be neato if a WFMU DJ did an all-out special on Tim Buckley, playing cuts from his whole career; just an idea..
	♥ 4:39pm Scott Williams: @mcgreivey, yep, sorry! I think it's an aesthetic thing more than a sound thing
	4:39pm northguineahills: Sounds like a loosely strung Derek Bailey....
	🧩 ♥ 4:41pm mcgreivey: Philip Gaule: Eugene Chadbourne, but less fun.
	4:41pm melinda: @Henry haha
	🧩 ♥ 4:41pm Franco Twinkie: I saw Tim Buckley open for Frank Zappa and the Doors. I use every opportunity to flaunt this one.
	🧩 ♥ 4:43pm ɨkɛ: @Jake@4:25, I thought those were the shows you liked the best!
	4:44pm TDK60: Franco! Wow, you flaunter, you.
	♥ 4:46pm steveo: frank zappa and the doors? was jim out sick or something?
	4:47pm JakeGould: @Ike: Throw a damp sponge being shoved in a garbage disposal and there’s a show!
	🧩 ♥ 4:48pm Mrs McG: "Do they know the record is stuck, or is that a feature?"
	4:49pm TDK60: steveo: I figure Franco meant to have a comma there after Zappa. heh.
	🧩 ♥ 4:50pm Mrs McG: @ike @jake, Is Jake saying power folks are unmusical? I'm confused by that.
	🧩 ♥ 4:50pm Franco Twinkie: TDK, well you made me green with envy when you said your dad took you to see the PBBB doing East-West. Steveo - You could say that, he was dead. It was their last show for a billion years
	♥ 4:50pm steveo: mrs mcg gets it
	4:50pm TDK60: Donovan was on your show, Scott?
	♥ 4:50pm Stanley: Birdie num num
	🧩 ♥ 4:51pm chresti: headache repair hum num
	♥ 4:52pm steveo: @franco yep that's pretty sick
	♥ 4:52pm steveo: jonesey, this is brilliant
	4:52pm ?: @Stanley great Party reference :)
	4:53pm mb: I may have just been listening to a double stream but can not confirm.
	♥ 4:53pm Scott Williams: @TDK60, he was on Jonesville Station
	🧩 ♥ 4:54pm Mrs McG: Ugh. I meant power drills, not power folks. I think Space-Donovan is spacing out my autocorrect more than usual.
	🧩 ♥ 4:56pm tim from champaign: Is this Ambrosia, Slade or Genesis? I'm confused.
	🧩 ♥ 4:56pm mcgreivey: Now I want to start an Ambrose Slade cover band, except without the boogie beat
	♥ 4:58pm steveo: time for (hopefully figurative) road hitting; thanks dj scott, for the stimulating time
	🧩 ♥ 4:58pm tim from champaign: The Party!!!!
	♥ 4:58pm Stanley: Birdie num num
	4:58pm randyfrommichigan: LOL Birdie Num Num ... Howdy Partner ... love The Party!!
	5:00pm TDK60: Franco, yeah that Butterfield Blues Band was long ago but I recall the innovative heat!
	5:00pm John: What is that interstrmuntal that is playing while Scott is talking
	♥ 5:01pm steveo: oohhhh, you remixed it; groovy!
	5:02pm TDK60: That's so groovy, Scott. Not kidding...
	5:02pm melinda: That's a great Donovan story.
	🧩 ♥ 5:03pm Yvang: Do you internet?
	🧩 ♥ 5:04pm mcgreivey: Eugene and Derek Bailey have recorded together, actually. I guess I should see if I have that in my big box of Chadbourne cassettes.
	5:05pm randyfrommichigan: @John I shazam'd it - Frank Comstock / You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling
	♥ 5:05pm Rich in Washington: mcgreivey: Tout for Tea! It's pretty amazing.
	5:05pm randyfrommichigan: the album shows as "The Best Of Elevator Music" ... of course :)
	5:07pm John: @candy it was when Scott started to talk oh wel will get it some other time
	5:07pm TDK60: a groovy idea might be if someone at Woofmoo did a Donovan show with stuff from his whole career but also including some of his influences and associates...
	5:07pm John: I meant randy sorry about that
	🧩 ♥ 5:08pm chresti: I liked your Donovan story, too!
	5:08pm randyfrommichigan: @John no prob :)
	5:10pm John: Thanks randy have to start to proofread more
	5:11pm uncle meat: I had almost entirely forgotten about Love of Life Orchestra!
	♥ 5:16pm Passaic River Blues: Thought this was going to be late era Mtume covering Neo Maya, but this is in some ways a stranger animal.
	🧩 ♥ 5:17pm mcgreivey: I think there's other Chadbourne/Bailey stuff, because I have something, but it's not Tout for Tea. I think it's one of Chadbourne's countless cassettes CDRs. I have to look for it.
	🧩 ♥ 5:18pm dale: this is like the song 'morning dew' on illegal drugs.
	🧩 ♥ 5:20pm mcgreivey: But I recognize why people are put off by Eugene. He can play pretty or artsy-serious, but usually he can't keep it up for long without cracking a joke. But for me, that's a feature, not a deficiency.
	🧩 ♥ 5:22pm Franco Twinkie: This is Vince in his sta-press flairs period.
	5:22pm Marley Dogg: Great set today Scott!
	🧩 ♥ 5:23pm mcgreivey: Early Eugene is more serious. See: Torture Time, which is definitely downtown-arty. But in a way it's less confident, in the sense that he hasn't yet given himself permission to take the piss out of everything, including stuff he loves
	♥ 5:25pm Scott Williams: thanks Marley Dogg!
	5:25pm Marley Dogg: Wünderbar!
	♥ 5:30pm fred: Horse Lords!
	5:31pm Andy the painter: this horse lords song is great! where are they from?
	5:32pm Freida: yes Fred, we can hear it dude
	♥ 5:32pm Rich in Washington: I would love to check out more Chadbourne/Bailey stuff. I am just familiar with that one and didn't know there were more.
	♥ 5:32pm Scott Williams: @Andy, they're B'more boys. They also played a killer live session on Donna B's show
	♥ 5:33pm Jeff Moore: I believe the Horse Lords are from Ballmer. horselords.bandcamp.com
	♥ 5:33pm Rich in Washington: I love the stuff he did in the 80s that was half guitar torture, half crazed tape collage. I sure dig how he packages his self released stuff, too.
	5:33pm melinda: @TDK Evan C. did a whole Donovan show on Explorers' Room a few years ago.
	🧩 ♥ 5:34pm chris: so. damn. great.
	5:34pm Fake E.C.: Check out Shockabilly.
	5:35pm Jeremy: All of a sudden this Horse Lords reminds me of Peter Gordon's Star Jaws
	5:35pm sos: I have to say this Horse Lords song is amazing!
	♥ 5:36pm Scott Williams: @Jeremy, haha yep I can hear it!
	♥ 5:37pm Rich in Washington: Shockabilly was the gateway drug that lead me to the incredibly strange world of EC.
	♥ 5:38pm Passaic River Blues: I really want this to be an impassioned ode to a subsection of a German federal statute.
	5:38pm kevlicki: Hello Mr Williams, TDK60 and all!
	♥ 5:39pm Scott Williams: Howdy do, Kevlicki!
	♥ 5:39pm Rich in Washington: I once did a whole two hours of Shockabilly on this artsy fartsy avant garde radio show I was one of the rotating hosts of and someone called in and threatened to burn the station down.
	♥ 5:40pm Webhamster Henry: Zummo is fun!
	5:41pm kev: you can never get enough Bingo
	5:44pm mmzzmz: I believe I listened this Bingo Gazingo _live_ on Fabio fmu show? back then. Of cause I have CD too! The BEST!!
	5:45pm Andy the painter: i think i’m gonna have a hippie freakout in the parking lot
	5:45pm John: Sounds like a refugee from dr demento
	🧩 ♥ 5:46pm mcgreivey: @Rich there are audio death-threat-excerpts like that on at least one Eugene record.
	🧩 ♥ 5:48pm chresti: Enjoyed the show, thanks Scott!
	5:50pm Andy the painter: @Scott. thanks! great show. kept me going, working in a cold warehouse. thankful i can listen.
	🧩 ♥ 5:52pm chris: thanks, Scott! great fun!
	🧩 ♥ 5:53pm Franco Twinkie: Scott, I enjoyed your post holiday smorgasbord immensely. A little light on the pickled meats, but no matter. Thanks.
	♥ 5:53pm Passaic River Blues: Another good turn at the helm, Scott. Thanks!
	♥ 5:54pm ultradamno: If it's not Scottish, it's crap! Go Revillos!
	5:56pm northguineahills: Thanks Scott, Zmrzlina, new to me!
	🧩 ♥ 5:57pm mcgreivey: Searching for Chadbourne/Bailey, all I've found so far it's Boogie With a Hook, but I think there's more.
	♥ 5:57pm Scott Williams: Tons of fun today, thanks everyone! See you next week
	♥ 5:58pm Rich in Washington: Great show, Scott! Thanks!
	5:58pm SeanG: great show!
	♥ 6:00pm Webhamster Henry: Bye Scott -- very entertaining!

Listener comments!
	2:57pm JakeGould: Scott? Whenever you play the long Unrest track I get worried.
	♥ 3:02pm Stanley: Sunflare - Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
	🧩 ♥ 3:02pm chris: \m/
	♥ 3:03pm Henry in Hopatcong: Hello Scott!
	3:04pm Chris from DC: Mostly empty office. Cranking. Proceed.
	♥ 3:06pm fred: Good afternoon Scott and listeners
	3:10pm Andy the painter: oh yeah. that FFKT track! bringin’ back the golden sounds of the eighties! hey scott, thanks!
	🧩 ♥ 3:11pm chresti: Hello Scott and folks
	♥ 3:20pm Scott Williams: Hey pals! Busy up in this place today, glad you're here
	3:25pm Andy the painter: yer on fire, babe
	3:26pm what an excellent transition: that was
	🧩 ♥ 3:27pm ThuddNugget: Enjoying the show today, Scott! Happy Monday.
	🧩 ♥ 3:27pm tim from champaign: No wonder I thought the Elephant's Memory sounded like Broadcast.
	♥ 3:27pm Passaic River Blues: Scott, I was just thinking, as you were playing "Old Man Willow", how much Broadcast reflected the influence of Elephant's Memory. United States of America is obviously a more direct and much discussed influence, but it's there nevertheless. Also, as others have noted, dope transition duly noted.
	♥ 3:30pm steveo: i've heard some of these songs before, so when you tell us the titles, i'll know you're telling the truth
	🧩 ♥ 3:30pm ɛɛɛɨk: I like cans.
	🧩 ♥ 3:30pm listener james from westwood: "He hates these cans!"
	3:31pm Ochre Ogre: Hi Scott, Elephant's Memory into Broadcast, NICE!
	🧩 ♥ 3:37pm Franco Twinkie: Scott, who are you yelling at? Is someone trying to get at you're pastrami sandwich?
	♥ 3:37pm RomanDogBird: dang scott, just when i was about to go out for a walk
	3:38pm David: You know: 3 chord monte already played this today?!
	♥ 3:39pm RomanDogBird: every show should play this
	3:39pm pp: because he Can
	♥ 3:41pm TonyR: LOL now I get to post my comment about "Unrest" which got eaten during Belock's show: Perfect jam to accompany that post-lunch sugar crash at work... It's keeping me going! (Again!!)
	3:44pm JakeGould: Oh no! Here we go again. MORE UNREST LONG TRACK.
	♥ 3:45pm Jeff Moore: Oh yes! Here we go again. MORE UNREST LONG TRACK.
	♥ 3:45pm Jeff Moore: (FTFY)
	🧩 ♥ 3:45pm Yvang: Mother Skyish : I love it!
	3:46pm yes: hooray!
	♥ 3:47pm pinholga: Maybe the real Unrest was the friends we made along the way.
	3:48pm Andy the painter: does this mean that mark hirsch has to play it too? he only has an hour....
	3:50pm JakeGould: @JeffMoore: You know lots of my Eastern European negativity has an underlying positivity to it, right?
	♥ 3:50pm steveo: mcgasko said the library is further away now; maybe this is the go-to track for library trips
	3:51pm Chris from DC: yay, more Unrest
	♥ 3:51pm Jeff Moore: @JakeGould: I love you, you asshole.
	3:52pm JakeGould: @JeffMoore: Shut up you wonderful son of a binch.
	3:52pm JakeGould: FWIW, “binch” is a great new bit of slang.
	3:53pm Paul D: does anyone know what years r. stevie moore had a radio show on wfmu
	♥ 3:53pm Jeff Moore: Right?
	3:53pm JakeGould: Perfect. Kids can say “binch.”
	3:54pm Chris from DC: Total DC inside baseball, but this sounds a lot like Plums.
	3:54pm Balls_Benedict: loving this Unrest
	3:54pm zpulpa: haha Nice to rock out to this song twice in one afternoon! hell yeah!
	3:55pm TDK60: Signed in. Hiya Scott DJ.
	♥ 3:56pm Barney Grubbs: we need an 8-hr chopped & screwed version of Hydro
	♥ 3:58pm Passaic River Blues: @Paul D: I'm not sure, but I believe it was the early to mid 80s (though he's been on various shows many times since then).
	🧩 ♥ 3:58pm chresti: This reminds me of ...a track by Slug (I think that's the name)
	♥ 3:58pm steveo: R. Stevie has a playlist page wfmu.org...
	3:59pm Ochre Ogre: So much unrest in the world, I like it
	♥ 3:59pm Jeff Moore: @Paul D: not sure exactly when RSM had a show, but there are some random-seeming archives here: www.wfmu.org...
	4:00pm Paul D: thanks passaic and steveo
	🧩 ♥ 4:02pm tim from champaign: Scott - tractor it up and keep the Unrest jam going!
	4:03pm david_: DC in the house! Shout-out to federal workers
	♥ 4:06pm Greg from ZONE 5: Scotty! Commenters! Unrest!
	🧩 ♥ 4:06pm mcgreivey: Q: what are the odds of tune in during Hydro? A: not bad, since it's 33:something long, and this is when I always tune in on Mondays.
	4:06pm @fumanchiuonthis: Love this.....Branca-esque
	🧩 ♥ 4:07pm mcgreivey: I want to stay a cover band that plays only "Hydro".
	♥ 4:07pm Scott Williams: @mcgreivey, today the odds are 1/24
	🧩 ♥ 4:08pm Yvang: No Unrest for the unwicked!
	♥ 4:09pm steveo: i got excited about that escalating chord progression there but then it just settled back down to regular non-escalating
	🧩 ♥ 4:09pm chresti: I love long, guitar driven songs
	♥ 4:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Scott and playlist pals. Enjoying the Joe McGasko birthday cake? I assume there was a cake. Hopefully, one without doorknob shavings inside.
	♥ 4:09pm steveo: ah it was a signal!
	♥ 4:10pm Barney Grubbs: "EP"!
	🧩 ♥ 4:10pm tim from champaign: EP in the truest sense - Extended Play!
	🧩 ♥ 4:11pm mcgreivey: *start
	♥ 4:12pm steveo: i want to start a radio station that plays only hydro
	4:14pm JakeGould: Now place that long Sleep track and go home.
	🧩 ♥ 4:14pm mcgreivey: @steveo and "Do the Robot!", too.
	♥ 4:14pm steveo: splice together a 1-year long version that ends each year at midnight on new year's day, then one minute of npr news before restarting the 1-year long version all over again
	♥ 4:14pm steveo: i'll have to look that one up, mcg
	🧩 ♥ 4:15pm mcgreivey: <<<<<<<<<<<
	4:15pm Chris from DC: An Unrest Stream. I like it.
	♥ 4:15pm steveo: oh hahah slaps forehead
	4:16pm Johnzon: this is awesome
	4:18pm northguineahills: Well, this Jimmy Castor version exists, didn't expect that...
	🧩 ♥ 4:19pm Franco Twinkie: I took a nap during Unrest. Is that appropriate? I woke up when I smelled something burning in the kitchen.
	4:21pm John: One thing I have noticed since I started getting into this station, is that there are no bad programs at all
	4:22pm TDK60: If Unrest were hippies, a few on the comments board would call it "noodling" hee.
	4:22pm northguineahills: What John said....
	♥ 4:22pm Passaic River Blues: So far everything in the cart sounds lovely to me.
	4:22pm melinda: Hi Scott and everyone!
	4:22pm JakeGould: @John: Welcome aboard! And you clearly haven’t been listening long enough.
	♥ 4:23pm steveo: john, what about the shows that are intentionally terrible?
	4:24pm pie: do we see aphex in april
	♥ 4:24pm rsj: was watching some football, was it an apple ad that was a rip off of aphex twin's come to daddy video? instead of the midgets it was iphone zombies (presumably) this may all be a hallucination...
	🧩 ♥ 4:25pm dale: sam ho was too good there.
	4:25pm JakeGould: A few of the shows on WFMU are like a blender and a power drilled mixed into a few guitar pedals with random screaming.
	♥ 4:26pm steveo: try to play the inside of the spindle hole!
	🧩 ♥ 4:26pm Roger: a mighty fine show today, mr Williams
	♥ 4:26pm Webhamster Henry: I think a show of rejecting playing records would be very WFMU. But you need to bring in one of those clanky-sounding automatic turntables.
	4:27pm John: @jake although the other day the boom boom show started off shaky and it was great
	🧩 ♥ 4:28pm mcgreivey: @steveo The shows that are trying to be bad are obviously failing.
	4:28pm TDK60: Nick Drake's mother. Really? Never heard of...yet.
	♥ 4:28pm steveo: so they're bad at being bad? so meta.
	🧩 ♥ 4:29pm Franco Twinkie: Sam Ho, Don's less talented brother who worked as a CPA until his wife left with the kids and he could do what he wanted for the first time in his life. I think.
	4:31pm TDK60: I hear a connection between mother and son Drake. // Tim B. is back again.
	♥ 4:31pm Scott Williams: @Franco Twinkie, I'll buy it
	4:31pm Johnzon: Molly Drake's music and poetry featured in a skin to few the nick drake doc. on youtube... really good film
	4:32pm mb: You've got a real mood matcher of a show here, DJ Scott Williams. And i thank you.
	🧩 ♥ 4:32pm chresti: Time hung still...
	4:32pm melinda: I like Tim Buckley, his music is well-suited to cold weather.
	4:33pm JakeGould: @Franco: What about Do Ho’s sister, Helpa Ho?
	♥ 4:33pm steveo: i wonder if tim hangs out with sandy denny in heaven
	4:34pm prudy: ill take Tim Buckley any day any time
	♥ 4:34pm Webhamster Henry: @JakeGould .. what about Heidi Ho?
	🧩 ♥ 4:36pm mcgreivey: Somehow, Lorca is my least favorite Tom Buckley record, aside from a couple of the late ones. I reach for others first.
	🧩 ♥ 4:38pm mcgreivey: Wait. Philip Gayle, but not Eugene Chadbourne? [Scratches head]
	4:38pm TDK60: ..it would be neato if a WFMU DJ did an all-out special on Tim Buckley, playing cuts from his whole career; just an idea..
	♥ 4:39pm Scott Williams: @mcgreivey, yep, sorry! I think it's an aesthetic thing more than a sound thing
	4:39pm northguineahills: Sounds like a loosely strung Derek Bailey....
	🧩 ♥ 4:41pm mcgreivey: Philip Gaule: Eugene Chadbourne, but less fun.
	4:41pm melinda: @Henry haha
	🧩 ♥ 4:41pm Franco Twinkie: I saw Tim Buckley open for Frank Zappa and the Doors. I use every opportunity to flaunt this one.
	🧩 ♥ 4:43pm ɨkɛ: @Jake@4:25, I thought those were the shows you liked the best!
	4:44pm TDK60: Franco! Wow, you flaunter, you.
	♥ 4:46pm steveo: frank zappa and the doors? was jim out sick or something?
	4:47pm JakeGould: @Ike: Throw a damp sponge being shoved in a garbage disposal and there’s a show!
	🧩 ♥ 4:48pm Mrs McG: "Do they know the record is stuck, or is that a feature?"
	4:49pm TDK60: steveo: I figure Franco meant to have a comma there after Zappa. heh.
	🧩 ♥ 4:50pm Mrs McG: @ike @jake, Is Jake saying power folks are unmusical? I'm confused by that.
	🧩 ♥ 4:50pm Franco Twinkie: TDK, well you made me green with envy when you said your dad took you to see the PBBB doing East-West. Steveo - You could say that, he was dead. It was their last show for a billion years
	♥ 4:50pm steveo: mrs mcg gets it
	4:50pm TDK60: Donovan was on your show, Scott?
	♥ 4:50pm Stanley: Birdie num num
	🧩 ♥ 4:51pm chresti: headache repair hum num
	♥ 4:52pm steveo: @franco yep that's pretty sick
	♥ 4:52pm steveo: jonesey, this is brilliant
	4:52pm ?: @Stanley great Party reference :)
	4:53pm mb: I may have just been listening to a double stream but can not confirm.
	♥ 4:53pm Scott Williams: @TDK60, he was on Jonesville Station
	🧩 ♥ 4:54pm Mrs McG: Ugh. I meant power drills, not power folks. I think Space-Donovan is spacing out my autocorrect more than usual.
	🧩 ♥ 4:56pm tim from champaign: Is this Ambrosia, Slade or Genesis? I'm confused.
	🧩 ♥ 4:56pm mcgreivey: Now I want to start an Ambrose Slade cover band, except without the boogie beat
	♥ 4:58pm steveo: time for (hopefully figurative) road hitting; thanks dj scott, for the stimulating time
	🧩 ♥ 4:58pm tim from champaign: The Party!!!!
	♥ 4:58pm Stanley: Birdie num num
	4:58pm randyfrommichigan: LOL Birdie Num Num ... Howdy Partner ... love The Party!!
	5:00pm TDK60: Franco, yeah that Butterfield Blues Band was long ago but I recall the innovative heat!
	5:00pm John: What is that interstrmuntal that is playing while Scott is talking
	♥ 5:01pm steveo: oohhhh, you remixed it; groovy!
	5:02pm TDK60: That's so groovy, Scott. Not kidding...
	5:02pm melinda: That's a great Donovan story.
	🧩 ♥ 5:03pm Yvang: Do you internet?
	🧩 ♥ 5:04pm mcgreivey: Eugene and Derek Bailey have recorded together, actually. I guess I should see if I have that in my big box of Chadbourne cassettes.
	5:05pm randyfrommichigan: @John I shazam'd it - Frank Comstock / You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling
	♥ 5:05pm Rich in Washington: mcgreivey: Tout for Tea! It's pretty amazing.
	5:05pm randyfrommichigan: the album shows as "The Best Of Elevator Music" ... of course :)
	5:07pm John: @candy it was when Scott started to talk oh wel will get it some other time
	5:07pm TDK60: a groovy idea might be if someone at Woofmoo did a Donovan show with stuff from his whole career but also including some of his influences and associates...
	5:07pm John: I meant randy sorry about that
	🧩 ♥ 5:08pm chresti: I liked your Donovan story, too!
	5:08pm randyfrommichigan: @John no prob :)
	5:10pm John: Thanks randy have to start to proofread more
	5:11pm uncle meat: I had almost entirely forgotten about Love of Life Orchestra!
	♥ 5:16pm Passaic River Blues: Thought this was going to be late era Mtume covering Neo Maya, but this is in some ways a stranger animal.
	🧩 ♥ 5:17pm mcgreivey: I think there's other Chadbourne/Bailey stuff, because I have something, but it's not Tout for Tea. I think it's one of Chadbourne's countless cassettes CDRs. I have to look for it.
	🧩 ♥ 5:18pm dale: this is like the song 'morning dew' on illegal drugs.
	🧩 ♥ 5:20pm mcgreivey: But I recognize why people are put off by Eugene. He can play pretty or artsy-serious, but usually he can't keep it up for long without cracking a joke. But for me, that's a feature, not a deficiency.
	🧩 ♥ 5:22pm Franco Twinkie: This is Vince in his sta-press flairs period.
	5:22pm Marley Dogg: Great set today Scott!
	🧩 ♥ 5:23pm mcgreivey: Early Eugene is more serious. See: Torture Time, which is definitely downtown-arty. But in a way it's less confident, in the sense that he hasn't yet given himself permission to take the piss out of everything, including stuff he loves
	♥ 5:25pm Scott Williams: thanks Marley Dogg!
	5:25pm Marley Dogg: Wünderbar!
	♥ 5:30pm fred: Horse Lords!
	5:31pm Andy the painter: this horse lords song is great! where are they from?
	5:32pm Freida: yes Fred, we can hear it dude
	♥ 5:32pm Rich in Washington: I would love to check out more Chadbourne/Bailey stuff. I am just familiar with that one and didn't know there were more.
	♥ 5:32pm Scott Williams: @Andy, they're B'more boys. They also played a killer live session on Donna B's show
	♥ 5:33pm Jeff Moore: I believe the Horse Lords are from Ballmer. horselords.bandcamp.com
	♥ 5:33pm Rich in Washington: I love the stuff he did in the 80s that was half guitar torture, half crazed tape collage. I sure dig how he packages his self released stuff, too.
	5:33pm melinda: @TDK Evan C. did a whole Donovan show on Explorers' Room a few years ago.
	🧩 ♥ 5:34pm chris: so. damn. great.
	5:34pm Fake E.C.: Check out Shockabilly.
	5:35pm Jeremy: All of a sudden this Horse Lords reminds me of Peter Gordon's Star Jaws
	5:35pm sos: I have to say this Horse Lords song is amazing!
	♥ 5:36pm Scott Williams: @Jeremy, haha yep I can hear it!
	♥ 5:37pm Rich in Washington: Shockabilly was the gateway drug that lead me to the incredibly strange world of EC.
	♥ 5:38pm Passaic River Blues: I really want this to be an impassioned ode to a subsection of a German federal statute.
	5:38pm kevlicki: Hello Mr Williams, TDK60 and all!
	♥ 5:39pm Scott Williams: Howdy do, Kevlicki!
	♥ 5:39pm Rich in Washington: I once did a whole two hours of Shockabilly on this artsy fartsy avant garde radio show I was one of the rotating hosts of and someone called in and threatened to burn the station down.
	♥ 5:40pm Webhamster Henry: Zummo is fun!
	5:41pm kev: you can never get enough Bingo
	5:44pm mmzzmz: I believe I listened this Bingo Gazingo _live_ on Fabio fmu show? back then. Of cause I have CD too! The BEST!!
	5:45pm Andy the painter: i think i’m gonna have a hippie freakout in the parking lot
	5:45pm John: Sounds like a refugee from dr demento
	🧩 ♥ 5:46pm mcgreivey: @Rich there are audio death-threat-excerpts like that on at least one Eugene record.
	🧩 ♥ 5:48pm chresti: Enjoyed the show, thanks Scott!
	5:50pm Andy the painter: @Scott. thanks! great show. kept me going, working in a cold warehouse. thankful i can listen.
	🧩 ♥ 5:52pm chris: thanks, Scott! great fun!
	🧩 ♥ 5:53pm Franco Twinkie: Scott, I enjoyed your post holiday smorgasbord immensely. A little light on the pickled meats, but no matter. Thanks.
	♥ 5:53pm Passaic River Blues: Another good turn at the helm, Scott. Thanks!
	♥ 5:54pm ultradamno: If it's not Scottish, it's crap! Go Revillos!
	5:56pm northguineahills: Thanks Scott, Zmrzlina, new to me!
	🧩 ♥ 5:57pm mcgreivey: Searching for Chadbourne/Bailey, all I've found so far it's Boogie With a Hook, but I think there's more.
	♥ 5:57pm Scott Williams: Tons of fun today, thanks everyone! See you next week
	♥ 5:58pm Rich in Washington: Great show, Scott! Thanks!
	5:58pm SeanG: great show!
	♥ 6:00pm Webhamster Henry: Bye Scott -- very entertaining!
