	9:18am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning all. But this tune. Ugh.
	9:18am EG_Astro: Good morning everyone - what are the lyrics to song...
	9:19am EG_Astro: oh nope nevermind, i think I am thinking of weird al's jurassic park!
	9:19am Lixiviated Life: well... ok then. This will do nicely as well. Like im in an elevator time machine back to 1970 (ish)
	9:19am Mikula: This is making me so happy!!!!
	9:19am Last White Rhino: Hey Joe, thanks for making me cry with this rendition of McGasko Park .
	9:21am HarktheUmpire: Streaming this radio show to help break in my new amp speakers.
	9:21am HarktheUmpire: And finding out that guitar speakers were not designed for the job
	9:22am HarktheUmpire: Still enjoying the show though. Hi everyone!
	9:22am Brendan: I left a cake out in the rain in the park one time . Hobos ate it.
	9:25am The Oscar: "There's a Whole Lot of Lalo Schifrin Goin' On" might be my new favorite album title ever.
	9:25am The Oscar: (Just realized I misread it, and the real title is even better!)
	9:25am annie: i want to announce that i am not at all impressed with this bluetooth speaker i bought.. too much distortion and watery sounds coming from it. i left the user guide home...
	9:26am steveo: Anybody ever listen to Peter Schickele's public radio show, "Schickele's Mix"? I recall hearing it in the early 00's and thought it was great. (Unfortunately no audio archives are available, AFAICT.)
	9:27am steveo: (side note, OMG, it's almost 2020)
	9:27am Last White Rhino: I think I'm having a Calgon moment.
	9:27am Phillippe Bastille: @Annie which one did you buy? I've found the UE Boom family quite satisfying and you can link a whole bunch of them together.
	9:27am chromaphone: Dont think ive ever listened to your show before. Loving it!
	9:28am Brendan: This set is an instant classic. McGasko in 2020!
	9:28am melinda: @Oscar I remember seeing this album at Goodwill in the 80s and it was the first I'd heard of him.
	9:28am chromaphone: Bluetooth kind of sucks imo.
	9:28am melinda: @Brendan I agree! This is the best way to start Monday.
	👻 9:30am Webhamster Henry: "Everybody's Talkin'" in their sleep!
	9:30am Re6ecca: Great Everybody's Takin' cover!!!!
	9:30am Snoochienucci: @joemcG i knew i recognized that cakey melody
	9:31am The Oscar: So weird not hearing Fabio right now!
	9:31am listener Rey: Hello Joe and my fellow elevator passengers. I have already clicky-starred this episode on the strength of your opening set
	9:32am Brendan: World peace has broken out, blood pressure readings have dropped everywhere since this set started. Hey its Fabios bed music too!
	9:32am Re6ecca: Will be hard to leave for work today, as I don't want to miss any of your show!!!
	9:32am V Priceless: Theme from Fabio!
	9:32am Kat in Chicago: First I thought I’d tuned into a Friendly Persuasion archive, and now I’m expecting to hear Fabio’s voice!
	👻 9:32am Webhamster Henry: WFMU - your Easy Listening Station! Combined with Difficult Listening (™Laurie Anderson)
	9:32am Mick: @Steveo: Schickele Mix was fun - goofy humor and often good music and clever commentary.
	👻 9:34am Webhamster Henry: @Steveo you can at least get the playlists: www.schickele.com...
	9:34am Brendan: We need some death metal about now.
	9:35am steveo: thanks, @wh; a transcript would probably be more fun
	9:35am annie: it's a sony, small round bomb-type. 50 bucks' worth.. i eventually looked on some forums.. not a great technology, overall..i'm taking it back to best buy too bad about that S-Mix not being on archive. a clever clever fellow.. that show and "A Note to You" with roland nadeau.. favorite noon-time musical journeys.
	9:35am cuteCloud: im here for this eez
	9:36am Kat in Chicago: I am in fact still in my jammies, as I quit my job three weeks ago and don’t have a new one yet!

	9:36am HarktheUmpire: working in my jammies (from home)
	9:37am Brendan: Easy. Easy like Monday morning.
	9:38am melinda: I wish I had gotten Fabio's premium.
	9:38am annie: my jammies have been replaced with a comfortable cotton slack[s]. running laundry and cleaning floors. thie pet-sit ends next wednesday!
	9:40am The Oscar: Is it weird that, when I think of Lalo Schifrin, the first score that leaps to my mind is "Class of 1984?"
	9:44am Kat in Chicago: Story Corner today? I may not get out of my jammies for a while!
	9:44am adampsyche: thanks for reminding me to put on pants!
	9:44am The Oscar: Braces for Santana's "Supernatural"

	👻 9:47am Webhamster Henry: Mr. Merritt has appeared live on WFMU a number of times.

	10:14am Listener Alexandra: Good morning from Sandy Eggo, Joe!
	10:15am Joe McG: Thanks again for gifting the station with coffee beans, Alexandra!
	10:15am Brendan: Nicely curated show so far Joe. Melancholy suits the season’s change. Wish I was in an outdoor cafe drinking just a bit inappropriately early instead of work but this gets me there.
	10:18am βrian: I've always like the name Gisela.
	10:18am Listener Alexandra: My pleasure, Joe--glad my city's finest is helping keep ya'll going strong :-)
	10:18am Brendan: Rolf. The other Hansen. Ask for it by name.
	10:20am avant reguard: that rolf hansen track is beautiful, reminds me a little of jim o rourkes bad timing album mood wise.
	👻 10:20am Brian in UK: Is Lana Del Rey's album worth a listen, despite the confusing title.
	10:22am KP in DC: Hello, Joe from DC, which is located in Alabama
	10:22am Krys O.: My pleasure, Joe. Full disclosure: my brain is like Swiss cheese and I try a lot of mnemonic devices to remember trivia before looking up things. Once in a while things are clear and I feel elated, briefly.
	10:24am Joe McG: @Krys: I've given up on remembering. Now I just have to remember not to talk about things I can't remember!
	10:24am Ashlea: Fantastic set this morning. Thank you: double high fives!
	10:25am sphere: Excuse me, but who are you? :)
	10:25am pantz: 'meber you and me talkin' 'bout 'memberin'? 'Member?
	10:25am adampsyche: hot damn how do you make the most consistently lower-your-blood-pressure playlists every monday. it's like exactly what monday mornings need.
	10:28am cuteCloud: !!!
	10:28am V Priceless: Yay Ayers
	10:28am Joe McG: @adam: "Live Slow, Die Whenever" :)
	10:29am Mike Wolf: All peaks today Joe, even the valleys hit new heights.
	10:31am coelacanth∅: speaking of talkover music...
	10:31am sphere: @coelacanth0 - you're right!
	10:32am Brendan: Joe I think Crystal Clear is the most loved and inquired about bed track on WFMU.
	10:32am Listener Robert: Funny you write that, Adam, because I used to consider Liz Berg's "caffeinated" Monday morning shows to be just what Monday mornings needed. And then Irene Trudel would soothe us after noon.
	10:32am Kat in Chicago: For the record, I am now wearing pants. I think it was the allusion to coffee above.
	10:33am βrian: I miss Irene, especially since I'm almost exclusively a daytime listener.
	10:34am adampsyche: @Listener Robert I thought that her shows were on Wednesdays? I forget but I misssssss that show
	10:35am adampsyche: i am very ok with whatever we get whenever we get it, and i am super ok with sunday morning reggae being a fixture. respect sunday morning reggae \o/
	10:37am Brendan: Freedom’s just another word for a song not about anything . Nothing really.
	10:40am Joe McG: @Kat: Excellent update!
	10:41am Krys O.: Thanks again for this Dave & Ansel Collins! Had this on a great LP comp. Sweet!
	👻 10:42am Hughie Considine: Pretty sure that opening "I am the magnificent" was used in one of Dickie Goodman's mash-up singles a la "Mr. Jaws."
	10:44am Linda Lee: i did too, Krys! constant rotation in the mid 80s :-) good morning!
	10:44am Joe McG: @Krys: Odd to hear the instrumental version without the exhortations of either Dave or Ansil, but nice for variety!
	👻 10:45am Hughie Considine: The one thing this song lacks is a bit of ... I don't what you'd call it. Winstanley-ness?
	10:46am βrian: Rosey, hey!
	10:46am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe and all!
	10:46am The Oscar: Can't hear Rosey Grier without picturing Ray Milland's head sewn onto his shoulder.
	10:47am Greg from ZONE 5: @The Oscar: That goes double for me :D
	10:47am holland oats: fun fact - this is actually ray milland's second head singing
	10:48am Joe McG: @Oscar: A great thespian as well as vocalist.
	10:48am holland oats: @oscar beat me!
	10:48am PKNY: @The Oscar - If it's wasn't for "The Thing with Two Heads", we'd never have the Incredible Bongo Band's "Apache" aka the hiphop national anthem --> www.vice.com...
	10:49am The Oscar: @Joe And textile artist! www.crochetconcupiscence.com...
	10:50am Joe McG: Renaissance man!

	10:51am Krys O.: I was just thinking of Thing with Two Heads yesterday while watching the Big Clock with Ray Milland on TCM.
	10:52am sphere: i just can't do electro-disco. sigh.
	10:53am adampsyche: this may be my favorite cover, never heard it!
	10:53am Phillippe Bastille: "Workin' for the man every night and day"
	10:55am Joe McG: You all know I love disco covers of classic rock.
	👻 10:55am tim from champaign: I remember seeing the Thing With Two Heads on the Saturday afternoon Triple Creature Feature on WKBD out of Detroit. I recognized Rosie Greer from football cards and Free To BE You and Me.
	👻 10:55am Brian in UK: Ray Milland was Welsh?
	10:56am sphere: @ Joe McG -sorry, digital handclaps make me break out in hives. im seeing a specialist though. :)
	10:57am Joe McG: @sphere: Ha ha! Everything in moderation.
	10:58am βrian: @sphere: No kidding. Gimme flesh on flesh, any day. Support the Guild of Studio Hand Clappers, I say!
	11:01am βrian: I can feel his arms around you because you're using Chrome.
	11:02am cuteCloud: :')
	👻 11:02am Brian in UK: Oh that sound of ennui in Cher's voice.
	11:02am Brendan: Kill the click radio alarm
	11:03am Brendan: Clock radio alarm (typo)
	11:03am annie: babe! what a team!
	👻 11:04am Brian in UK: Is the lead singer of U2 related to Sonny?
	11:04am Peter in tappan: The most wonderful song
	11:05am Brendan: Sorry Groundhog Day sullied and defiled that song for me
	👻 11:06am tim from champaign: I love the Dictator's I Got You Babe too!
	11:07am annie: i think they did, joe... it was just a wrong match in the long run. there was a lot of love there, imo
	11:08am Planet Tyler: Couldnt help but keep thinking of Bowie in his feather-thing and Marianne Faithful, stoned and dressed as a nun, doing "I Got You Babe" for the 1980 Floor Show
	11:09am Krys O.: I loved seeing Rosey Grier on the Dinah Shore show talking about crocheting and knitting.
	👻 11:10am Brian in UK: There used to be a good bakers in Horn Lane. Thought you would be interested.
	👻 11:10am tim from champaign: Did the letter come with a couple Washingtons tucked in there? I say we bring back payola.
	11:11am annie: dinah was a class act!
	11:12am Micheal: Forgot about Rosie Grier’s knitting talents. Man of many hats.
	11:12am βrian: Now I want to hear Dinah Washington.
	👻 11:13am tim from champaign: What?!?!?! John Waters and Todd-O-Phonic? I think Todd has met his match.
	11:15am bo: no Joe, nooooo!!!! anything but the laughing gnome!!!
	11:15am pantz: OMG No! I love Bowie but this song is a travesty.
	11:15am Rev. Turnip Druid: Sudden flashback to a Beanie & Cecil cartoon featuring a singing "dina-sor" who sounded rather like one particular "dinah shore" -- Notice you never saw both of them in the same place. I smell a conspiracy.
	11:15am Krys O.: Excellent!
	11:15am Greg from ZONE 5: Oh shit you just went there…
	11:16am βrian: I hope Todd uses his inside voice when conducting interviews.
	11:16am Roberto: So you're telling me there are actually people out there who don't like this?
	11:17am Rich in Washington: I can't believe Bowie never tried to incorporate this gem into his Serious Moonlight tour.
	11:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Loves. Pre-Huge Fame Boowies!...if this maybe not most... Be goid for DoubleDipRecess...
	11:17am -Ken: This song is almost enough to make me hate Bowskie
	11:17am Carmichael: WTF?! And heya Joe and listeners.
	👻 11:17am Hughie Considine: Rosey Grier was also a bodyguard for Robert Kennedy and was a few feet from him the night when he was assassinated.
	11:17am common: ‘Avent you got an ome to go to? Joe all!
	11:17am duke: David Bowie and the Chipmunks
	11:17am Brendan: Id like hear this slowed down to see if thats Bowie doing the gnome.
	11:17am bo: the great Chris O'Leary on the laughing gnome: https://bowiesongs.wordpress.com/2009/09/28/the-laughing-gnome/
	11:17am The Oscar: Not sure what possessed me, but when I arrived to work at the record store the day Bowie died, the first disc I put on was an early comp with that song on it.
	👻 11:18am Brian in UK: Joe, it's double dip recess. With a tongue firmly placed in cheek.
	11:18am annie: will you ever throw together a show of Elvis/Jesus songs?
	11:18am Rich in Washington: I learned about Bowie's passing live, listening to this here station. Remember it well.
	11:19am Carmichael: I'm seeing a theme ...
	11:19am Joe McG: @Brian: I brought this record for my Double Dip fill-in a few weeks ago and forgot to play it!
	11:19am KP in DC: Did I hear Byrds mentioned
	11:20am βrian: I don't like troll bridges, I do not like troll roads.
	11:21am Phillippe Bastille: @Brian Todd doesn't have an inside voice...
	11:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Good for day after PeterSellers' B-Day maybe... Better Gnomes: Syd on Floyd's 1st album - Tomorrow band on theirs ...seems Psychedelic Drugs were dangerously Hobbit-forming...

	11:24am Carmichael: The Story of Bruce the Hairdresser would go well here.
	11:26am listener Rey: Tom T is one helluva story-teller
	11:27am Kat in Chicago: Aw, poor Joe!
	👻 11:27am tim from champaign: Is today the first day of the new schedule?
	11:27am Joe McG: @Rey: He actually had an album called that!
	11:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Holy leather fringes Wanda is both a great & sexy Singer...
	11:28am Carmichael: Sorry, "Big Bad Bruce": www.youtube.com...
	11:31am Mike Sin: I once ran into Tom Rush in an airport and quickly told him how much I've enjoyed "The Circle Game" LP over the years. He was as nice as his singing voice is.
	👻 11:32am Brian in UK: This Cartwright Brothers reminds me of Woody's Pretty Boy Floyd.
	11:32am Joe McG: @Mike: That's nice that he wasn't in a rush. ;)
	11:34am Joe McG: @Brian: Woody borrowed liberally from old tunes, as did most folk artists.
	11:34am listener Rey: @Joe McG What! That's an omen for sure. I'm heading over to Discogs to find me a copy.
	11:34am βrian: Though he has been known for getting the urge for going.
	👻 11:35am tim from champaign: Do I sense Wildfire on the on deck circle?
	11:38am Krys O.: Harry Chapin had a sad ending.
	11:39am WFMU listener WADE: brutal story telling.
	👻 11:41am Brian in UK: Harry Chapin, now there's a storyteller. A car crash is tragic whether James Dean or Harry Chapin.
	11:42am annie: i was sitting at hartwick college for political fund-raiser he was going to prtform at..we got the news as we were sitting there he had been killed
	👻 11:42am Brian in UK: Remember buying the 45 of WOLDDDDDD.

	11:43am Colleen: Wowie..didnt see all that coming!
	11:45am Monica: damn, you really went there with this harry chapin, joe:) COURAGE
	11:46am Mick: Wow wow wow: haven't heard that in a long time. I was going to a drive in movie with my folks when we heard the news about Harry's crash
	11:46am Brendan: Oh the irony. This is better than a daytime soap opera.
	11:46am Joe McG: @Mo: Monday morning is not for the timid.
	11:47am prudy: loving the old Rod Stewart...
	11:47am pantz: My favorite Rod Stewart song. Quite a tear jerker.
	11:48am Joe McG: Of course the gang is from New Jersey!
	11:48am annie: i have not been able to move from the couch... this was a mesmerizing set.as riveting as the one before it.
	11:49am Jeff Moore: That kid in the Harry Chapin song was really slow on the uptake, wasn't he? We saw the twist coming the minute he caught the bad man with his mama.
	11:49am WFMU listener WADE: when Joe goes dark.
	11:51am common: Good tune! Never heard this rod
	11:52am Kat in Chicago: Jeez, I wasn’t expecting Story Corner to be quite such an emotional roller coaster today.
	11:53am pantz: Thanks for choosing this instead of "Christmas Shoes" Joe
	11:54am Rich in Washington: For sale, baby snow shoes, never worn.
	11:54am βrian: Cuz those eyes gotta be blue, right?
	11:54am Krys O.: Another excellent show! Thanks, Joe!
	👻 11:54am Brian in UK: The half eaten carrot by the fire was always a dead giveaway that Rudolph had called.
	11:54am Jeff Moore: Uh oh. Is this a nuclear holocaust song?
	11:55am Joe McG: @Jeff: Sure is! Thanks for listening and commenting, everybody! I won't play "Morning Dew" today, I promise. Have a great week!
	11:55am Phillippe Bastille: Wow, this is creepy
	11:55am Rich in Washington: Is there something wrong with me that I immediately tracked this down and bought it?
	11:55am The Oscar: Annnnd that's a clickystar from me. Great show!
	11:56am Brendan: Sorry son , climate change.
	👻 11:56am Brian in UK: @Joe (Mr Chuckles). Thanks.
	11:56am Andrea in Jersey City: Great show! Thanks for great music! :)
	11:56am Rich in Washington: It's essentially The Road, the Musical.
	11:57am Linda Lee: having been chased by a gang of jersey creeps myself for similar reasons, i'd say it's plausible.
	11:58am Linda Lee: georgie just didn't have a strategy.
	11:58am Andrea in Jersey City: Lol
	11:58am coelacanth∅: Thanks Joe take care
	11:59am Hopey Sockmonkey: @Rich In answer to your question if it's wrong you tracked it down and bought it: We would expect nothing less from you :)
	11:59am Hopey Sockmonkey: Thanks, Joe!
	12:18pm nickrhombi: 'no playing in the snow today' had strong structural similarities to the eagles 'lyin eyes'. (and the georgie tune refrain to, 'dont let me down') great set!

	9:15am Brendan: Vibraslap!

	9:16am Mick: @Krys O: Nice
	9:17am Joe McG: Good morning, radio friends, and welcome to today's show. Don't leave your cake out in the rain.

	9:18am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning all. But this tune. Ugh.
	9:18am EG_Astro: Good morning everyone - what are the lyrics to song...
	9:19am EG_Astro: oh nope nevermind, i think I am thinking of weird al's jurassic park!
	9:19am Lixiviated Life: well... ok then. This will do nicely as well. Like im in an elevator time machine back to 1970 (ish)
	9:19am Mikula: This is making me so happy!!!!
	9:19am Last White Rhino: Hey Joe, thanks for making me cry with this rendition of McGasko Park .
	9:21am HarktheUmpire: Streaming this radio show to help break in my new amp speakers.

	9:22am HarktheUmpire: Still enjoying the show though. Hi everyone!
	9:22am Brendan: I left a cake out in the rain in the park one time . Hobos ate it.
	9:25am The Oscar: "There's a Whole Lot of Lalo Schifrin Goin' On" might be my new favorite album title ever.
	9:25am The Oscar: (Just realized I misread it, and the real title is even better!)
	9:25am annie: i want to announce that i am not at all impressed with this bluetooth speaker i bought.. too much distortion and watery sounds coming from it. i left the user guide home...
	9:26am steveo: Anybody ever listen to Peter Schickele's public radio show, "Schickele's Mix"? I recall hearing it in the early 00's and thought it was great. (Unfortunately no audio archives are available, AFAICT.)
	9:27am steveo: (side note, OMG, it's almost 2020)
	9:27am Last White Rhino: I think I'm having a Calgon moment.
	9:27am Phillippe Bastille: @Annie which one did you buy? I've found the UE Boom family quite satisfying and you can link a whole bunch of them together.
	9:27am chromaphone: Dont think ive ever listened to your show before. Loving it!
	9:28am Brendan: This set is an instant classic. McGasko in 2020!
	9:28am melinda: @Oscar I remember seeing this album at Goodwill in the 80s and it was the first I'd heard of him.
	9:28am chromaphone: Bluetooth kind of sucks imo.
	9:28am melinda: @Brendan I agree! This is the best way to start Monday.

	9:30am Re6ecca: Great Everybody's Takin' cover!!!!
	9:30am Snoochienucci: @joemcG i knew i recognized that cakey melody

	9:32am Brendan: World peace has broken out, blood pressure readings have dropped everywhere since this set started. Hey its Fabios bed music too!
	9:32am Re6ecca: Will be hard to leave for work today, as I don't want to miss any of your show!!!
	9:32am V Priceless: Theme from Fabio!
	9:32am Kat in Chicago: First I thought I’d tuned into a Friendly Persuasion archive, and now I’m expecting to hear Fabio’s voice!
	👻 9:32am Webhamster Henry: WFMU - your Easy Listening Station! Combined with Difficult Listening (™Laurie Anderson)
	9:32am Mick: @Steveo: Schickele Mix was fun - goofy humor and often good music and clever commentary.
	👻 9:34am Webhamster Henry: @Steveo you can at least get the playlists: www.schickele.com...
	9:34am Brendan: We need some death metal about now.
	9:35am steveo: thanks, @wh; a transcript would probably be more fun
	9:35am annie: it's a sony, small round bomb-type. 50 bucks' worth.. i eventually looked on some forums.. not a great technology, overall..i'm taking it back to best buy too bad about that S-Mix not being on archive. a clever clever fellow.. that show and "A Note to You" with roland nadeau.. favorite noon-time musical journeys.
	9:35am cuteCloud: im here for this eez

	9:37am Brendan: Easy. Easy like Monday morning.

	9:38am annie: my jammies have been replaced with a comfortable cotton slack[s]. running laundry and cleaning floors. thie pet-sit ends next wednesday!
	9:40am The Oscar: Is it weird that, when I think of Lalo Schifrin, the first score that leaps to my mind is "Class of 1984?"
	9:44am Kat in Chicago: Story Corner today? I may not get out of my jammies for a while!
	9:44am adampsyche: thanks for reminding me to put on pants!

	👻 9:47am Webhamster Henry: Mr. Merritt has appeared live on WFMU a number of times.

	9:48am G: Stephin Merritt hour. Excellent.

	10:15am Joe McG: Thanks again for gifting the station with coffee beans, Alexandra!
	10:15am Brendan: Nicely curated show so far Joe. Melancholy suits the season’s change. Wish I was in an outdoor cafe drinking just a bit inappropriately early instead of work but this gets me there.

	10:18am Listener Alexandra: My pleasure, Joe--glad my city's finest is helping keep ya'll going strong :-)
	10:18am Brendan: Rolf. The other Hansen. Ask for it by name.
	10:20am avant reguard: that rolf hansen track is beautiful, reminds me a little of jim o rourkes bad timing album mood wise.
	👻 10:20am Brian in UK: Is Lana Del Rey's album worth a listen, despite the confusing title.
	10:22am KP in DC: Hello, Joe from DC, which is located in Alabama
	10:22am Krys O.: My pleasure, Joe. Full disclosure: my brain is like Swiss cheese and I try a lot of mnemonic devices to remember trivia before looking up things. Once in a while things are clear and I feel elated, briefly.
	10:24am Joe McG: @Krys: I've given up on remembering. Now I just have to remember not to talk about things I can't remember!
	10:24am Ashlea: Fantastic set this morning. Thank you: double high fives!
	10:25am sphere: Excuse me, but who are you? :)

	10:31am coelacanth∅: speaking of talkover music...
	10:31am sphere: @coelacanth0 - you're right!
	10:32am Brendan: Joe I think Crystal Clear is the most loved and inquired about bed track on WFMU.
	10:32am Listener Robert: Funny you write that, Adam, because I used to consider Liz Berg's "caffeinated" Monday morning shows to be just what Monday mornings needed. And then Irene Trudel would soothe us after noon.
	10:32am Kat in Chicago: For the record, I am now wearing pants. I think it was the allusion to coffee above.
	10:33am βrian: I miss Irene, especially since I'm almost exclusively a daytime listener.
	10:34am adampsyche: @Listener Robert I thought that her shows were on Wednesdays? I forget but I misssssss that show
	10:35am adampsyche: i am very ok with whatever we get whenever we get it, and i am super ok with sunday morning reggae being a fixture. respect sunday morning reggae \o/

	10:41am Krys O.: Thanks again for this Dave & Ansel Collins! Had this on a great LP comp. Sweet!
	👻 10:42am Hughie Considine: Pretty sure that opening "I am the magnificent" was used in one of Dickie Goodman's mash-up singles a la "Mr. Jaws."
	10:44am Linda Lee: i did too, Krys! constant rotation in the mid 80s :-) good morning!
	10:44am Joe McG: @Krys: Odd to hear the instrumental version without the exhortations of either Dave or Ansil, but nice for variety!
	👻 10:45am Hughie Considine: The one thing this song lacks is a bit of ... I don't what you'd call it. Winstanley-ness?
	10:46am βrian: Rosey, hey!
	10:46am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe and all!
	10:46am The Oscar: Can't hear Rosey Grier without picturing Ray Milland's head sewn onto his shoulder.

	10:53am adampsyche: this may be my favorite cover, never heard it!
	10:53am Phillippe Bastille: "Workin' for the man every night and day"
	10:55am Joe McG: You all know I love disco covers of classic rock.
	👻 10:55am tim from champaign: I remember seeing the Thing With Two Heads on the Saturday afternoon Triple Creature Feature on WKBD out of Detroit. I recognized Rosie Greer from football cards and Free To BE You and Me.
	👻 10:55am Brian in UK: Ray Milland was Welsh?
	10:56am sphere: @ Joe McG -sorry, digital handclaps make me break out in hives. im seeing a specialist though. :)
	10:57am Joe McG: @sphere: Ha ha! Everything in moderation.
	10:58am βrian: @sphere: No kidding. Gimme flesh on flesh, any day. Support the Guild of Studio Hand Clappers, I say!
	11:01am βrian: I can feel his arms around you because you're using Chrome.
	11:02am cuteCloud: :')
	👻 11:02am Brian in UK: Oh that sound of ennui in Cher's voice.

	11:05am Brendan: Sorry Groundhog Day sullied and defiled that song for me
	👻 11:06am tim from champaign: I love the Dictator's I Got You Babe too!
	11:07am annie: i think they did, joe... it was just a wrong match in the long run. there was a lot of love there, imo
	11:08am Planet Tyler: Couldnt help but keep thinking of Bowie in his feather-thing and Marianne Faithful, stoned and dressed as a nun, doing "I Got You Babe" for the 1980 Floor Show
	11:09am Krys O.: I loved seeing Rosey Grier on the Dinah Shore show talking about crocheting and knitting.
	👻 11:10am Brian in UK: There used to be a good bakers in Horn Lane. Thought you would be interested.
	👻 11:10am tim from champaign: Did the letter come with a couple Washingtons tucked in there? I say we bring back payola.
	11:11am annie: dinah was a class act!
	11:12am Micheal: Forgot about Rosie Grier’s knitting talents. Man of many hats.
	11:12am βrian: Now I want to hear Dinah Washington.
	👻 11:13am tim from champaign: What?!?!?! John Waters and Todd-O-Phonic? I think Todd has met his match.
	11:15am bo: no Joe, nooooo!!!! anything but the laughing gnome!!!
	11:15am pantz: OMG No! I love Bowie but this song is a travesty.
	11:15am Rev. Turnip Druid: Sudden flashback to a Beanie & Cecil cartoon featuring a singing "dina-sor" who sounded rather like one particular "dinah shore" -- Notice you never saw both of them in the same place. I smell a conspiracy.
	11:15am Krys O.: Excellent!
	11:15am Greg from ZONE 5: Oh shit you just went there…
	11:16am βrian: I hope Todd uses his inside voice when conducting interviews.
	11:16am Roberto: So you're telling me there are actually people out there who don't like this?
	11:17am Rich in Washington: I can't believe Bowie never tried to incorporate this gem into his Serious Moonlight tour.
	11:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Loves. Pre-Huge Fame Boowies!...if this maybe not most... Be goid for DoubleDipRecess...
	11:17am -Ken: This song is almost enough to make me hate Bowskie
	11:17am Carmichael: WTF?! And heya Joe and listeners.
	👻 11:17am Hughie Considine: Rosey Grier was also a bodyguard for Robert Kennedy and was a few feet from him the night when he was assassinated.
	11:17am common: ‘Avent you got an ome to go to? Joe all!
	11:17am duke: David Bowie and the Chipmunks
	11:17am Brendan: Id like hear this slowed down to see if thats Bowie doing the gnome.
	11:17am bo: the great Chris O'Leary on the laughing gnome: https://bowiesongs.wordpress.com/2009/09/28/the-laughing-gnome/
	11:17am The Oscar: Not sure what possessed me, but when I arrived to work at the record store the day Bowie died, the first disc I put on was an early comp with that song on it.
	👻 11:18am Brian in UK: Joe, it's double dip recess. With a tongue firmly placed in cheek.
	11:18am annie: will you ever throw together a show of Elvis/Jesus songs?
	11:18am Rich in Washington: I learned about Bowie's passing live, listening to this here station. Remember it well.

	11:27am Joe McG: @Rey: He actually had an album called that!
	11:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Holy leather fringes Wanda is both a great & sexy Singer...
	11:28am Carmichael: Sorry, "Big Bad Bruce": www.youtube.com...
	11:31am Mike Sin: I once ran into Tom Rush in an airport and quickly told him how much I've enjoyed "The Circle Game" LP over the years. He was as nice as his singing voice is.
	👻 11:32am Brian in UK: This Cartwright Brothers reminds me of Woody's Pretty Boy Floyd.
	11:32am Joe McG: @Mike: That's nice that he wasn't in a rush. ;)
	11:34am Joe McG: @Brian: Woody borrowed liberally from old tunes, as did most folk artists.
	11:34am listener Rey: @Joe McG What! That's an omen for sure. I'm heading over to Discogs to find me a copy.
	11:34am βrian: Though he has been known for getting the urge for going.
	👻 11:35am tim from champaign: Do I sense Wildfire on the on deck circle?
	11:38am Krys O.: Harry Chapin had a sad ending.
	11:39am WFMU listener WADE: brutal story telling.
	👻 11:41am Brian in UK: Harry Chapin, now there's a storyteller. A car crash is tragic whether James Dean or Harry Chapin.
