	9:06am Handy Haversack: How goes, David?
	9:06am David (in London): Hey Nulsh and TDK.
	9:06am Rick A.: The movie Paper Moon was recently on Turner Classic Movies. This is could be the version used in the film.
	9:06am P-90: Cliff & Nick are welcome any time
	9:07am David (in London): All fine here thanks Handy. Quietly busy, but spirits remaining relatively high. Everything groovy in Greenpoint?
	9:08am Uncle Michael: My cat Lucas trying to stop me from changing the bed linens and Cliff Edwards = opposite ends of the spectrum.
	9:08am Handy Haversack: Swings and roundabouts, DiL! We have had some tech hiccoughs that add grist to the daily grind, but hoping to have them sorted soon. Might even be nice enough tomorrow to go outside again!
	9:08am DJ Guin: Cannot watch Ryan O'Neal movies -- he pimped out Tatum when she was a child.
	9:09am pantz: Croonin' Joe McGasko. Will you be talking through a megaphone this morn?
	9:09am TDK60: In 1928 eh? wait til '29!
	9:09am Joe McG: Hey everybody, welcome to the show. Tip-toe-ing in this morning. @pantz: Not a bad idea!
	9:09am The Oscar: Mornin'! I'm such a sucker for this stuff.
	👻 9:10am Threemoons: Good morning Joe McG, fellow YipYips...

	9:11am Pedro in Arlington: Magic sounds for this morning.
	👻 9:11am waters7: Joe, you are (about) the only good thing about Mondays. Thanks for playing.
	9:12am Peter from Dover NJ: I'm so out of touch with reality with this stinkin' lockdown, I just remembered the property taxes are due.
	👻 9:12am LastWhiteRhino: Good morning Joe, so mello that I'm turning yello. Yowza,yowza, what's next Rudy Vallee?
	9:12am The Oscar: If you get a chance, I highly recommend the movie KING OF JAZZ-- totally bizarre early technicolor musical revue (featuring a young Bing Crosby!) which is pretty much a cinematic equivalent of this set.
	9:12am Joe McG: @waters7: Thx! @Ken: This stuff is too late for MAC. He plays pre-1925 acoustic era.
	9:13am mari: Thank you Joe
	9:13am melinda: Morning Joe and folks! I only just realized that I had been listening to the Shrunken Planet archive for the last hour. It seemed exceptionally mellow for a weekday.
	9:14am melinda: This is good rainy Monday morning music.
	👻 9:14am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks for pointing that out, Joe. Maybe this is the Old Codger era? Haha
	9:15am DJ Guin: @melinda..Joe McG..mari...I oddly feel like this is like listening to a scene in The Shining....love the music just the same.
	9:15am DJ Guin: Hanshaw!!!!!
	👻 9:16am LastWhiteRhino: Halo everybody Halo, Halo the shampoo that glorifies your hair, so Halo everybody Halo.
	9:16am Strandlund: This is why I love this show so much!! Thanks Joe!!
	9:16am ParUbi: The rumor was that Whispering Jack Smith lost his breath capacity due to gas attacks in WWI
	9:16am Joe McG: @Ken: Yes, the Codger definitely goes here, although I know for a fact he's an Etting man, doesn't like Hanshaw.
	👻 9:17am LastWhiteRhino: Hey DJ Guin: Not only are you a MOVER but you are also a SHAKER ,as well !
	9:18am dave wuz here: play some of that sexy sophie tucker!
	9:18am Tom from Boonton: splendid show Mister Joe!
	9:18am yerfriendpaul: Love this.
	9:19am johnk77: nice show selecter my wife's great uncle charlie was gassed in ww1 and yet lived to be 96!
	9:19am Karen in Sleepy Hollow: Nice mornin' for spinning the oldies, thanks Joe
	9:19am Paul D: Hello from Bloomfield!
	9:19am wizard frog: Golly - feels like I'm in a oldie time-y picture film land
	9:20am DJ Guin: the OneManMovin'Crew gets shaking on Wednesday....might require sustenance from Chefski's post-relocation -- might settle for a pizza and brewskis
	9:20am Joe McG: @dave: Ha, I'm kinda mining a more melancholy vein that good old Sophie usually mines. Glad you folks are enjoying some old beauts.
	9:21am dave wuz here: 23 skidoo
	9:21am The Oscar: So weird to hear this song not interrupted by giggle fits.
	9:21am common: tunes are fitting for today. thanks joe!
	9:21am melinda: @DJ Guin I know what you mean. Have you heard The Caretaker? Similar vibe.
	👻 9:22am LastWhiteRhino: Nice tunes but they are tough to cut a rug to.
	👻 9:23am Brian in UK: Hey Joe Elvis was real cutting edge in 1960! How far he had fallen in five years.
	9:23am Handy Haversack: Perfect for sitting in the Stutz Bearcat and watching the moon rise, though.
	9:23am Greg from ZONE 5: This is a welcome reminder that these songs have not always existed. At some point they didn't exist at all, and somebody wrote them down.
	9:23am pantz: All of these crooners remind me of the soundtrack I wore out way back when www.youtube.com...
	9:24am The Oscar: Maybe it's the weirdness of the times, but I've been on a total Old Hollywood kick lately. This set is the perfect companion!
	9:24am DJ Guin: @melinda - sadly, i am not familiar with that airshift? my parents were young during this era and never kept any good records in the house. it is any wonder I have any taste in crooners.
	9:24am Marc Francis: Damn Joe. I love when you know exactly what I need to hear even when I don't.
	9:24am TDK60: This is the stuff my grandparents probably heard.
	9:25am djsheilab: I cannot believe “Are You Lonesome Tonight” wasn’t an Elvis original. I truly had no idea. Mind blown! Thanks Joe!
	9:25am DJ Guin: SheilaBeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
	9:26am The Oscar: @GFZ5 I had a similar revelation when I first heard Raymond Scott. I had heard all those tunes in so many cartoons that it was inconceivable that those were songs with names!
	9:26am Fragonard: This is a great show...really hits the spot!
	9:27am The Oscar: Somewhere I have some hokey charity comp that features Leonard Maltin singing this song!
	👻 9:27am LW Rhino: Hey Joe, do you have Alfalfa from the "Little Rascals" singing "Let me Call You Sweetheart" ( complete with soap bubbles)?
	9:27am yerfriendpaul: I wonder what Belle Baker would think of the overflow of talking pictures today?
	👻 9:27am Brian in UK: Oh the wonder of sitting in a darkened room with hundreds of people staring at a screen and sharing the experience all together. (this comment is not Covid-19 related).
	9:27am Rocky Horror: Can we just dial up Pennsylvania-5000 please
	9:29am Greg from ZONE 5: MONSTERS OF MEGAPHONE!!!
	9:29am Joe McG: Hi, Sheila B.! :) :) Don't worry folks, we'll move into the contemporary era in a moment or two....
	9:29am johnk77: @joemcg great show i think you mean 1910 instead of 1810
	9:30am morphe': Blue Monday??? Cry For Help????Cleaning out the 78s to make room for the 45s?? Do not scare us Joseph [middle name(s) Here] McGasko!!!!!
	9:30am wizard frog: @greg from zone 5 hah! (...thank you)
	👻 9:30am Brian in UK: Joe, hope those hamsters are getting paid union rate.
	9:30am listener james from westwood: I do love hearing the old shtuff, though. And I too didn't know until today that that Elvis track . . . wasn't originally an Elvis track!
	9:31am DJ Guin: i could listen to this era of music all day, Joe. let the others see what's on 'PLJ
	9:31am Nulsh: Contemporary shmontemporary! That doesn't look as funny written down as it did in ma' heid.
	9:31am Fragonard: NEVER clear out those Boff Wax Biscuits for wee ‘45s please!
	9:31am Baja Joe: The one and only time I cut away from WFMU is Sundays with Uncle Floyd's Garage Sale Music radio show. While I miss the Reggae show on WFMU, I instead get a terrific dose of true classic tunes and very corny jokes and gags on WFDU. Nice job of creating a similar vibe Joe M. I'm also enjoying the subtle theme. Brilliant.
	👻 9:31am LW Rhino: @ Greg from Zone 5: Do you have "Monsters of Megaphone UNPLUGGED"?
	9:32am melinda: @DJ Guin here it is: en.wikipedia.org...
	9:32am melinda: I could listen to this all day too.
	9:33am David (in London): Damn, that was a set of great old classics Joe. I'm in the mood to dress up and drink a Martini now.
	9:33am wizard frog: oh I see what you did there
	9:35am Crudbringer: ahh... back in the ear jacuzzi... morning everybody.
	👻 9:35am Brian in UK: Joe, these songs are just great compositions.
	9:36am DJ Guin: @melinda -- genuine thanks for the 411. this is why I adore this community. back before I was married..hoped to get hitched at the Automat on 42nd street...neither institution endured.
	9:37am TDK60: I'm old enough to recall the last automats. Think they were still around in NYC into the early 1970s.
	9:38am Handy Haversack: @TDK60, yeah, my dad frequented the automats -- he left the city in '64.
	9:39am Nardo: Chet Baker does a wonderful version of Ghost of a Chance.
	👻 9:39am LW Rhino: Maybe automats may come back now in these times of physical distancing.
	9:39am morphe': Fragonard - Wax Biscuits - I once called Rex to ask about the phrase "musical bisquit." He explained that the plastic was shaped like a bisquit before pressed... rexKnowledge - I am just the messenger..
	9:41am DJ Guin: trouble with the charm of NYC is that they pull buses filled with tourists to all of the great places..i get that tourism is vital, but, c'mon.
	9:43am Stanley: Greetings friends. I found that automats are still doing well in Holland and Japan. They are a thing of wonder. Can I have my goulash croquet now?
	9:44am TDK60: Cheesecake.
	9:44am The Butterman: I love Elvis’ live version when he is so bombed that he laughs hysterically for a min or two before getting his shit together.
	9:44am David (in London): Hey morphester and Stanley. Stanley, yes, I once had a decidedly ambiguous thing from an automat in Amsterdam.
	👻 9:44am Hughie Considine: The movie Paper Moon was pretty memorable for the line,"Shut up and eat your Coney Island. And drink your Nehi."
	9:44am DJ Guin: My Automat go-to was apple pie with melted cheddar and a cup of black coffee..with the NY Times...
	9:45am dave wuz here: i used to park my camper van in the desert in utah and mountains in colorado and play the ink spots under a stary sky. sigh.
	9:45am wizard frog: interesting podcast from 99% invisible on automats: 99percentinvisible.org...
	9:46am Joe McG: @Butterman: A classic! @wizard: Neat! @Hughie: I LOVE that line!
	9:47am Greg from ZONE 5: Jarvis, still killing it.
	9:48am Handy Haversack: Isn't "Must I Evolve?" also originally a Vaughn de Leath song?
	👻 9:48am Brian in UK: Automats are a complete unknown to me, apart from drink vending machines.
	9:48am Rocky Horror: Grape Nehi- the drink of a one Coporol Walter"Radar"O'Riley of the 4077th
	9:52am DJ Guin: Rocky Horror has season one of WALTE*R on Betamax
	👻 9:53am waters7: I like this Nick Lowe. He's a mensch.
	9:53am TDK60: Saw Lowe & Jackets a few years ago, an outdoor free concert. The Jackets were already masked up.
	9:55am WoodsOfNH: Greetings from rainy, windy New Hampshire. Bleah.
	9:55am Fragonard: @morphe Cool note there. (It pre-dates me, but hell, I always feel like I was born in the wrong era!)
	9:56am WoodsOfNH: Say, I rented the documentary Record Safari last night. Lots of interesting interviews, piles of vinyl, and a short segment with Sheila B! The bad part: now I want to buy ALL THE VINYL!!!!!
	9:56am Crei6hton: Morning!
	9:56am Matt Fiveash: That Nick Lowe song is so goddamn good! Studio version on the "Trombone" 4-song EP. Joe McG: if you haven't heard that song "Trombone" check it out. Right up your alley, kinda sounds like a Neil Diamond Bang side or something...
	9:57am Artie: Hey, I was there at the Haw River Ballroom to see Nick and the boys that night. Thought that sounded familiar!
	9:58am Jeffrey Davison: Damn, Courtney Marie Andrews is the best. I have to get this record. Hey there, Joe!
	9:58am Joe McG: @Woods: Oh, cool! I haven't seen it yet! @Matt: Yes, I've got to get a hold of his last couple of EPs. I'm hoping he'll do the sensible thing and put all this stuff on one LP or CD at some point. @Artie: Wow, that's so cool! The whole thing is up on Bandcamp if you want to relive it. Nick says the ballroom is beautiful! @Jeff: Hey, Jeff!!
	9:59am Brendan: Good moseyin’ music .
	9:59am morphe': TDK - Automats//mid 1970s there was still an automat in TSQ and the cigarette ad (which changed faces) with the smoke coming from the mouth.... At the very end, I think it changed to a steaming bowl of soup???
	9:59am morphe': Rhino - there are automats all over A'dam and the Nederlands and Japan and???
	👻 10:01am TristaC.LadyCaveBrat: Morning Joe and everybody! I now have meetings in the 10-11 time block and can't listen in when I'm not on mute. But I am hovering! Nice to be here.
	10:01am TDK60: Morphe. I'm ancient, recall that Times Sq. cigarette smoke! The last automat I recall was near the main post office and the newer Madison Sq. Garden, round W. 34th St.
	10:01am Joe McG: Nice to see you, TristaC! :)
	10:02am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning.
	10:02am Fishsmoker: JARV IS is far out!
	10:02am melinda: @Woods where is that available?
	10:04am WoodsOfNH: @melinda www.recordsafarithemovie.com (I think Sheila B said it was only available through April 30th.)
	10:05am WoodsOfNH: This appears to be a week for music docs because next up is Other Music and then the WBCN thing. Dang!
	10:05am testingwithfire: hi Joe and hi (again) commentariat... that new Nick Lowe / Straitjackets album on Bandcamp is worth a listen
	10:06am βrian: I love this Chip, but I find the name a bit silly.
	10:06am nematomorpha: whip chickham
	10:07am Handy Haversack: Hey, Phillippe!
	10:07am Joe McG: The "Other Music" doc is great, it made me very nostalgic for a New York that is no more. Tower on one side, OM on the other = record shopping happiness!
	10:09am TDK60: I was aghast when Other closed. Did they really have to close?
	10:10am WoodsOfNH: @Joe McG I can't remember the store he was in but it was the one with the massive collection in the basement. It reminded me of a place I went to one time out near Worcestor, MA called, hilariously, Al-Bums. The dust and mildew got to me but I found some absolute treasures.
	10:11am ParUbi: Such sweet, calming music this morning. I remember Tower Records from their Ann Arbor store. Lots of goodies in the import section...
	10:12am Phillippe Bastille: @handy how are you and Kate this AM?
	10:13am Malcolm: hi joe lovely set
	10:13am Handy Haversack: Getting by, Phillippe, getting by. Occasional rain, psyche-wise.
	10:14am Joe McG: @Malcolm: Terry Callier slays me.
	10:15am judy from croton: Right on target, Joe. Not the metaphor I want; more like applying the perfect balm for this morning
	10:15am Brendan: The quiet storm rages on
	10:16am Joe McG: @Judy: His voice is total balm for the soul! I listened to Terry Callier all weekend. It's hard to play just one song.
	10:16am Shira: Beautiful!
	10:18am Yes: good morning all
	👻 10:18am waters7: Willie Wright!
	👻 10:19am waters7: I read the playlist wrong--I do like Willie Wright--but I meant Terry Callier.
	10:19am WoodsOfNH: More entertainments (for fans of Nick Cave): I read this morning that Cave has created a continuously-updated youtube channel full of live stuff, etc. www.youtube.com...
	10:20am pantz: @Woods Whoa! That's my evening sorted.
	10:20am Jeffrey Davison: When I saw the name Willie Wright pop up on the playlist, I first thought you were playing the folkie. Came out of the same Chicago scene as Callier, but earlier, in the 50s. Largely forgotten, alas. https://www.discogs.com/artist/2708184-Willie-Wright-2
	10:21am Joe McG: @Jeffrey: It's a Willie Wright fake-out I didn't think anyone would get. Thanks for noticing, Jeffrey!
	10:22am TDK60: I was a VISTA worker for a while.
	10:23am Krys O.: Ooh, loving this Nina!!!!
	10:23am judy from croton: Woah. Totally forgot about Vista. Bring Vista back!
	10:23am Joe McG: How was it, TDK60?
	10:23am Krys O.: I remember Vista as a kid.
	👻 10:24am Hughie Considine: Lolita Haze : Well, the "vista-sister," that's like, "Lolita-sweeter." Humbert Humbert : That's very true. That's a very acute observation. If you were in my class I would give you an A plus.
	10:25am Eric from Lake Hiawatha: Thanks for the Willie Wright, compelling I had to stop, sit and enjoy
	10:25am judy from croton: @hughie: well done!
	10:25am TDK60: Joe, it was great, low pay, but rewarding. Community action group in West Virginia.
	10:26am Joe McG: My pleasure, Eric! @TDK60: Good to hear!
	👻 10:27am Webhamster Henry: Where can I sign up! www.nationalservice.gov...
	10:28am P-90: The great Herb Óscar Anderson, a big influence on beloved New York top forty deejay Dan Ingram.
	10:28am Phillippe Bastille: Hey Krys O., how's it going?
	10:28am melinda: Looking forward to watching all these music docs. I've found the Netflix movie suggestions lacking lately, and their limited series shows always keep me up past my bedtime.
	10:29am P-90: Vista was like a domestic counterpart to the Peace Corps.
	10:30am (another) Patrick in Hoboken: Thank you for this Vista sidebar Joe! Sounds like something we could do with now. Of course the usual suspects would chastise as “big government” and all that, but we need to do this kind of thing regardless...
	10:30am ilana: VISTA still exists! as a part of Americorps. pay still sucks but now they don't get Nina Simone to do radio spots :/
	10:31am Andrew Waterloo: One of my local shops is doing flip videos of everything in stock.. they have an incredible jazz section.. But everything is $100+
	10:31am Phillippe Bastille: @melinda this site has "cheat codes" for Netflix so you can reduce the impact of their algorithms on your searches: www.cheatsheet.com...
	10:32am ParUbi: Flutes rock! Even (especially) with heavier, rocking records...
	10:32am Andrew Waterloo: I picked up the Dollar Brand with Archie Scheppe album
	10:32am P-90: A lot of radio stations were grateful for the free programming (Voices of Vista), it also counted towards their FCC-mandated “public service program” weekly minimum.
	10:35am ?: Jo McG - Best radio show on the dial. Thanks for the music. Always a relief to listen to you on the air.
	10:36am Joe McG: Thanks, ?!
	10:36am Krys O.: Hey, Phillippe! Hanging in there. Best wishes to all!
	10:37am paul: Lennon/McCartney!
	👻 10:38am Brian in UK: Where the kerrs of the days. Oh Cilla.
	10:38am Malcolm: wow i'd love to hear that dollar brand archie shepp record
	10:38am Joe McG: @paul: Did they ever record a version of it?
	10:39am paul: As far as I know, no.
	10:39am Phillippe Bastille: Good to hear, Krys. "Hanging in there" is a goal I aim for every day
	👻 10:39am Hughie Considine: Nifty version of Step Inside Love by Bill Lloyd on the excellent Sing Hollies in Reverse tribute LP.
	👻 10:40am Brian in UK: Did the Stones ever record Blue Turns to Grey?
	10:41am paul: McCartney recorded the song on 16 September 1968 during The Beatles (a.k.a. "The White Album") sessions, but it did not appear on the album. After an impromptu performance of "Step Inside Love", McCartney led the group into "Los Paranoias", which (despite George Harrison not being present) was credited to all four members of the band. The two songs were released as a single track on Anthology 3 in 1996, and also appear on the deluxe version of 2018's 50th anniversary edition of "The White Album".
	10:41am TDK60: Never understood why the Fabs never did "World Without Love." They gave it Peter & Gordon. Great tune. // Brian. yeah I think it's on the US version of "December's Children" LP.
	10:41am Joe McG: @Brian: They did. It came out in the U.S. on "December's Children" but you guys didn't get it for a decade or more.
	10:41am Skullfarmer: Flute players Lizo vs Jethro Tull's Ian Andersin?
	10:42am DJ Guin: Lizzo cannot play. Debate over.
	10:43am tim from Champaign (now washington): Hey Joe and everybody!!!
	10:43am WoodsOfNH: Yeah, but can Ian Anderson play the flute while twerking?
	10:44am paul: I thought December's Children was a Stones LP.
	10:44am judy from croton: Love this song; already counted 3 little borrowed bits.
	👻 10:44am Hughie Considine: Great flute solos in pop music: "California Dreamin'" ... there are more.
	10:45am Faux Jean: Loving this show out here in Wisconsin. Thanks Joe.
	10:46am Joe McG: @paul: Brian was asking about "Blue Turns to Grey," a different example of a famous version of the song being by someone else but the group who wrote it. @Faux: Hey Jean, welcome from WI!
	10:46am Krys O.: TCM showed a movie last week called No Blade of Grass from 1970. It was about worldwide famine caused by a virus and it was ham-fistedly directed by Cornel Wilde. The weirdest thing was the theme song by Roger Whittaker. It made me think of you, Joe and FMU. youtu.be...
	10:47am Bill W: Like Joe, I grew up watching movies of my parents' era on TV, as I was reminded this weekend by watching the Marx Brothers impersonate Maurice Chevalier in MONKEY BUSINESS... which is likely the first time i heard Chevalier sing (when Harpo plays a record).
	10:47am pantz: Wonder what Touched By An Angel thought of this song.
	10:47am DJ Guin: @krys -- weirder still would be Johnny Whitaker
	10:47am Joe McG: @Krys: Wow, sounds fascinating! @Bill W: That scene still makes me howl when they are all going through customs pretending to be Chevalier!
	10:48am Andrew Waterloo: @Krys.. yah.. Criterion showed that one in February along with a bunch of other 70s apocalypse movies.
	10:48am paul: Thanks @Joe!
	10:48am judy from croton: Wow, Della; sounds like you’ve lived it. Feel it all the way
	10:48am Krys O.: Watching old movies on TCM has been my solace. I've been doing that since I was a tiny tot.
	10:48am ?: Della needs to not be scamming on married people though
	10:49am Andrew Waterloo: One Blade of Grass is so British.
	10:49am TDK60: I've never heard the Cliff Richards version of "Blue Turns To Grey" (which maybe proves I'm not English).
	10:50am Handy Haversack: @ParUbi (10:32): Have you checked out Wucan? Heard on WFMU, of course. Garbage Time? Heavy psych with strong flute! Super good.
	10:50am Joe McG: @Krys: I watched Lee Tracey last night in a silly one called "Crashing Hollywood." Enjoyed it muchly!
	👻 10:50am Hughie Considine: I think we'd be bereft of a lot great songs if infidelity didn't exist.
	10:50am Krys O.: By the way, the great comedic actor, Bobby Barber who appeared in the background of many old movies and TV shows was the guy in Monkey Business who has the frog in his throat. Harpo turns him upside down to let the frog out. It's fun to play spot Bobby Barber.
	10:51am Toothgrinder Tom: According to Wikipedia, Vista still exists for the time being as Americorps/Vista although its future is in doubt because its budget has been slashed (or simply eliminated) by the current administration.
	10:51am DJ Guin: BUDDY!! the real King of Rock n Roll.
	10:51am Krys O.: Crashing Hollywood sounds perfect and Jack Carson is in it too. He was so versatile.
	10:52am TDK60: Joe! You //have// this Holly 45? Wow.
	10:52am efd: I'd just like to acknowledge the LACK of surface noise on this 63 year old record!
	10:52am Krys O.: Excellent record care?
	10:52am Joe McG: @TDK & efd: So happy when I saw this MIGHTY clean BH 45 in the dollar boxes of a dealer a few months ago!
	10:53am Krys O.: A dollar?! Excellent!
	👻 10:53am Brian in UK: Thanks folks, Did not realise that December's Children was ever released here. @paul, it s one of those wonderful things about this station and Joe's show in particular that it sets you off on parallel lines. Then peope chip in, I know that the interent can answer all questions but it is not the same as listeners/DJs interacting
	10:54am Joe McG: @Krys: It's even in a Brunswick company sleeve. Probably ended up in the wrong box.
	10:55am Bill W: Lee Tracy was the master of "snappy patter." Joe Tex is the matter of growling patter.
	10:56am paul: This is crazier than "Chicken Crazy."
	10:56am WoodsOfNH: I had a 45 of "I Gotcha" when I was a kid. Sadly, I don't know where it went.
	10:56am Krys O.: @DJ Guin: I saw the 1973 Johnny Whitaker version of Tom Sawyer at Radio City Music Hall on a class trip.
	10:58am Krys O.: Little Black Egg always seemed to show up on the record show journeys made in the late 1980s. We called them record shows back then.
	10:59am Joe McG: Wish I'd been there - this copy isn't so hot!
	👻 10:59am Brian in UK: You could almost carbon date the Nightcrawlers to '65.
	11:01am DJ Guin: @Krys - I met Mason Reese at a local restaurant of minor notoriety in the 70's - bizarre little person
	11:01am Layet Johnson: Your theme song is just my favorite
	11:02am Dean: Late '76 I went on a high school theater trip to London and environs with attendees from multiple high schools. Johnny Whitaker was on the tour.
	11:03am P-90: That was a gloriously random Single File. Bravo, Joe!
	11:03am Krys O.: (Sung in the voice of Mason Reese) It's a small world after all!
	11:04am Krys O.: Note: I'm about the same height as Mason Reese.
	11:04am Listening Out There: Am listening finally, after a darn meeting. Enjoying what I've heard thus far...
	11:05am DJ Guin: @krys -- are you considered snack size or fun size?
	11:07am Dennis Diken: “That’ll Be The Day” (and b-side “I’m Looking For Someone To Love”) recorded 2/25/57 - the day I was born!
	11:07am DJ Guin: if too weird or personal -- i apologies. not my intent
	11:07am Dean: Pretty sure The Pooh (aka I Pooh) had a connection to another Italian pop group, I Beans.
	👻 11:08am Brian in UK: Gair-rhine-t. (Hard G)
	11:08am DJ Guin: R.I.P Robert Zimmerman!! ::pours out from his 40 oz. ::
	11:08am andy fuchs: I' pooh has been together 50 years and are basically the Italian Beatles... their the musical equal of Journey, amazing singing and musicianship..
	11:09am paul: A member of Bon Jovi survived the virus. :)
	11:09am P-90: Marianne’s survived worse.
	11:10am Handy Haversack: Daniel Kahn Gilmor (Techtonic guest) is a good friend of mine! We have known each other since I was six!
	11:10am paul: Marianne survived Keef..
	11:10am pantz: Hey Joe, are the DJ premiums getting mailed out after this Covid mess is over?
	11:12am David (in London): Handy, what's his speciality?
	11:12am Krys O.: It just occurred to me that it's been 25 years since Faithfull, Marianne's autobiography was published.
	11:13am Devin B.: My wife got her Garbage Time tank over the weekend. Thanks, skeletons! You are amazing!!
	11:14am Handy Haversack: Marty McSorley played ~6 Bohannon songs to start off his show Sat. night. @DiL, he's a technologist at the ACLU: privacy is really his specialty, I'd say, and freedom from abuse by govt. and corporations.
	11:15am melinda: That must be who they're referring to in that Tom Tom Club song. Mystery solved.
	11:15am Joe McG: Oh great, Handy, I missed it! Happy to hear it.
	11:15am Carmichael: Heya Joe. Little Black Egg was the first song I learned to play on guitar. Followed quickly by Secret Agent Man.
	11:16am Yes: Which Bohannon records should I begin with? I liked what I've heard off summertime groove
	11:16am Yes: seems like there are gems across the board
	11:17am David (in London): Handy, blimey, he's cut his work cut out for him for sure. Looking forward to listening to that later.
	11:18am Stanley: A good Bohannon set can be found here wfmu.org...
	11:18am Joe McG: @Yes: You can't go wrong with "Insides Out" or "Gittin' Off." I also love "Bohannon" and "Phase II" and "Too Hot to Hold." Actually, all of them!
	11:19am Jeffrey Davison: Excellent. Shirley sampled, followed by Shirley in the round.
	11:19am Joe McG: "Stop and Go" is his first one if you want to start at the start.
	11:19am TDK60: See, there's a flute in pop...except it's folk-rock and those sound more like recorders..
	11:20am TDK60: or maybe a mellotron?
	11:20am testingwithfire: That Della Reese track was smashing. Anyone else remember that nineties show about angels she starred in? Dull show, but Della sparkled.
	11:20am Carmichael: They're tin whistles.
	11:21am johnk77: the music explosion covered little black egg in 1966
	11:21am TDK60: Ah, got me. failed again, Carmichael.
	11:21am Joe McG: It's Robin Williamson playing tin whistle.
	11:22am Yes: thanks, joe!
	11:22am testingwithfire: @Stanley: I discovered Flash Strap's show this weekend and am the better for it @johnk77 Tarnation (with Paula Fraser) covered Little Black Egg in the nineties on their first album. It's the weakest track on that album, but that's because the rest of the record is so strong.
	11:23am Marc Francis: Yes! Thanks Joe. this is one of my all time favourite songs.
	11:24am Carmichael: Speaking of Robin Williamson ...
	👻 11:24am Hughie Considine: Flutes do occur in pop, but I'd say they are relatively rare in the upper reaches of the charts. Canned Heat's flute-dominated "Going Up the Country" is surely one of the great flutey hits.
	11:25am WoodsOfNH: @testingwithfire Touched By An Angel? Yeah, we watched it. Me, piggishly, because of Roma Downey.
	11:25am David (in London): I think Ian Anderson might have something to say about flutes, too.
	11:25am Carmichael: The guess Who's "Undun" is another.
	👻 11:26am Webhamster Henry: ISB is aways welcome.
	👻 11:27am Webhamster Henry: Autoharp Alert!
	11:28am Handy Haversack: Dig this song. Heard it once before, I think. Maybe on Surface Noise?
	👻 11:28am Hughie Considine: Yes, and a fine one too @Carmichael -- And from the "Canned Wheat" collection -- coincidence? I think not!
	11:29am johnk77: @testw/fire thanks for the info do not know tarnation will check out
	👻 11:30am Webhamster Henry: Double Autoharp Alert!
	👻 11:30am LastWhiteRhino: Come on everyone , let's hoist our tankards of mead and toast our DJ and all around good squire, Joe McGasko !
	11:31am Stanley: Thijs van Leer was my all time rock flautist. Otherwise, not that keen.
	11:31am Joe McG: Ha ha, thanks LWR, you're starting a little early today! ;)
	11:32am Joe McG: @Stanley: Good thing I didn't do that flute premium I was thinking about this year!
	11:33am P-90: Good morrow! I’ll have a 20 ounce tankard of Guinness. And there’s another farthing for you if it is brought by a lusty serving wench with a capacious bustle.
	👻 11:34am Webhamster Henry: I'm reposting this little list of rockin' autoharpists. mexicanspitfire.blogspot.com...
	11:34am Stanley: Bill Mac did a recorder/whistle premium, if I remember correctly.
	👻 11:35am p20: Hi Joe and WFMU friends! Happy Monday
	11:36am P-90: Flute premium could be a good thing
	11:36am pantz: Is this Welsh?
	11:37am WoodsOfNH: So is it just me or do weekends seem to vaporize these days?
	11:37am David (in London): P-90 - I cannot serve you unless you are wearing a doublet and hose. p20- Hello!
	👻 11:37am chresti: Morning Joe and folk!
	👻 11:37am Hughie Considine: @Stanley, Thijs is what I'm talking about. Seriously, though, the solo in "Hocus Pocus"? One for the ages...
	11:37am Joe McG: @P-90: I'll probably do it one day. @pantz: Yetth!
	11:38am pantz: @Joe doniol!
	11:39am Brendan: Michaelangelo ...amazing ... that was like the Freebird of Harpsichord.
	11:40am Brendan: Autoharp even
	11:40am Handy Haversack: Hey, p20, chresti.
	11:40am DJ Guin: I am holding out hope for anything Shatner or Nimoy before the end of this set.
	👻 11:40am Hughie Considine: Ah, the Free Bird of Harpsichord...followed closely by the Green Grass and High Tides of Harpsichord...
	11:40am Stanley: Sounds like the voice from sixties Bowie.
	11:41am dave wuz here: proto Frogs band
	11:41am Carmichael: I'd settle for Roy Wood's Lady Elaine.
	👻 11:41am chresti: Hi Handy.
	👻 11:41am karlward: Oh yeah
	11:41am Stanley: Kevin 'chipmunk' Coyne
	11:41am Handy Haversack: Coming in hot!
	👻 11:42am karlward: Come for Joe's velvet slippers, stay for the Chipmunk Coyne
	11:42am steveo: i must be getting older; i like it better at the correct speed :)
	11:43am Joe McG: That was an oops since I meant to play another record after Kongos. Oh well!
	11:43am RobW: So nice to hear a dj play a record at the wrong speed. Reminds me of listening to John Peel when I wuz a kid.
	👻 11:43am karlward: I think we need an A B C test, where Joe plays it sloooow next. I suspect I will enjoy Slow Coyne the most.
	11:44am lee in dublin: find myself listening to Kevin Coyne a lot right now, something about his voice fits this time, for me. And my introduction to him came via this show, thanks Joe
	11:44am RobW: And lord knows Peel played Kevin Coyne often!
	11:45am Joe McG: You're too kind, RobW! But I appreciate the Peel reference. I've decided his quote about surface noise is the reason I've called this show what it's called. Not true, but it's a good story. @lee: Cool, thanks for letting me know!
	👻 11:45am Brian in UK: I think that Kevin Coyne was on John Peel's Dandelion label.
	11:47am steveo: stuff happens, joe; glad you're here today; i suspect the sentiment is the reason, even if you hadn't heard the quote yet
	11:47am Brendan: Noooo ...go back! Trust your 45 rpm instinct!
	11:48am Joe McG: Yeah, we're actually going a bit Peel with some Dandelion artists right now! I like how this has worked out.
	11:51am melinda: This set has been an excellent soundtrack for my morning walk in the woods!
	11:51am WoodsOfNH: I was looking at the Peel archive recently. I found myself wishing I could have my music collection cataloged that like. Tons of work though...
	11:52am Krys O.: Thank you, Joe!
	👻 11:52am 12539: Thanks, Joe! Stay well and come back often.
	11:53am Santos L. Halper: Thanks Joe!
	👻 11:53am Hughie Considine: Thanks for making Monday (more than) tolerable, Joe!
	👻 11:54am Brian in UK: Peel proved that you do not have to play top 40 to be influential. Plough your own furrow. The most amazing thing being that the BBC employed him for so long. How could they not.
	11:54am Handy Haversack: Lovely show today, Joe! Really nice to be here. Thanks for being here, too! Much appreciated!
	11:54am listener 126464: Joe thanks much that was wonderful.
	11:54am David (in London): Another doozy today Joe, thanks.
	11:54am DJ Guin: tanks for the Monday accompaniment, Mistah McGasko.
	11:54am melinda: I could listen to this all day too.
	11:55am Joe McG: Hey, everybody, thanks for listening and commenting as I played these songs to keep you company. I hope you have a good week, and I'll see you next Monday with the crazy Random Pull experience. Be well!
	11:55am pantz: Great show, Joe! Have a wunderbar week.
	11:55am TDK60: Thanks for spinning, skeleton Joe.
	11:55am Stanley: This is lovely. Thanks Joe for the show and everything you do.
	11:56am David (in London): Brian, his sardonic intros on TOTP used to be solid Peel gold. I still remember "Russ Abbott there, with a cover of Joy Division's 'Atmosphere'."
	👻 11:57am p20: did anyone here check out the 24-hour drone event this past weekend?
	11:57am TDK60: (Some day, people looking at the archives may have to research why we're referring to skeletons.)
	👻 11:58am Webhamster Henry: @p20 I did a little, and I was also in the Tuning Meditation.
	11:59am melinda: @TDK haha
	👻 11:59am p20: Henry: Cool! I did the "Automatic Aleatoric" webstream
	11:59am ?: Sairie are from Brighton!!
	11:59am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, JMC!
	11:59am Luisa24: Lovely mood this morning! Thank you!
	11:59am steveo: thanks ! Joe !
	👻 11:59am Webhamster Henry: @p20 I did too .. I had to use VLC. I drone on and on myself.
	11:59am Joe McG: You're right, Brighton, sorry!
	👻 11:59am chresti: The year of the skeletons.
	👻 12:00pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks Joe - wonderful show as usual!
	👻 12:00pm chresti: Thanks Joe!

	9:06am Rick A.: The movie Paper Moon was recently on Turner Classic Movies. This is could be the version used in the film.
	9:06am P-90: Cliff & Nick are welcome any time
	9:07am David (in London): All fine here thanks Handy. Quietly busy, but spirits remaining relatively high. Everything groovy in Greenpoint?
	9:08am Uncle Michael: My cat Lucas trying to stop me from changing the bed linens and Cliff Edwards = opposite ends of the spectrum.
	9:08am Handy Haversack: Swings and roundabouts, DiL! We have had some tech hiccoughs that add grist to the daily grind, but hoping to have them sorted soon. Might even be nice enough tomorrow to go outside again!
	9:08am DJ Guin: Cannot watch Ryan O'Neal movies -- he pimped out Tatum when she was a child.
	9:09am pantz: Croonin' Joe McGasko. Will you be talking through a megaphone this morn?
	9:09am TDK60: In 1928 eh? wait til '29!

	👻 9:12am LastWhiteRhino: Good morning Joe, so mello that I'm turning yello. Yowza,yowza, what's next Rudy Vallee?
	9:12am The Oscar: If you get a chance, I highly recommend the movie KING OF JAZZ-- totally bizarre early technicolor musical revue (featuring a young Bing Crosby!) which is pretty much a cinematic equivalent of this set.
	9:12am Joe McG: @waters7: Thx! @Ken: This stuff is too late for MAC. He plays pre-1925 acoustic era.
	9:13am mari: Thank you Joe
	9:13am melinda: Morning Joe and folks! I only just realized that I had been listening to the Shrunken Planet archive for the last hour. It seemed exceptionally mellow for a weekday.
	9:14am melinda: This is good rainy Monday morning music.
	👻 9:14am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks for pointing that out, Joe. Maybe this is the Old Codger era? Haha
	9:15am DJ Guin: @melinda..Joe McG..mari...I oddly feel like this is like listening to a scene in The Shining....love the music just the same.
	9:15am DJ Guin: Hanshaw!!!!!
	👻 9:16am LastWhiteRhino: Halo everybody Halo, Halo the shampoo that glorifies your hair, so Halo everybody Halo.
	9:16am Strandlund: This is why I love this show so much!! Thanks Joe!!

	9:16am Joe McG: @Ken: Yes, the Codger definitely goes here, although I know for a fact he's an Etting man, doesn't like Hanshaw.
	👻 9:17am LastWhiteRhino: Hey DJ Guin: Not only are you a MOVER but you are also a SHAKER ,as well !

	9:20am Joe McG: @dave: Ha, I'm kinda mining a more melancholy vein that good old Sophie usually mines. Glad you folks are enjoying some old beauts.
	9:21am dave wuz here: 23 skidoo

	👻 9:22am LastWhiteRhino: Nice tunes but they are tough to cut a rug to.
	👻 9:23am Brian in UK: Hey Joe Elvis was real cutting edge in 1960! How far he had fallen in five years.
	9:23am Handy Haversack: Perfect for sitting in the Stutz Bearcat and watching the moon rise, though.
	9:23am Greg from ZONE 5: This is a welcome reminder that these songs have not always existed. At some point they didn't exist at all, and somebody wrote them down.
	9:23am pantz: All of these crooners remind me of the soundtrack I wore out way back when www.youtube.com...
	9:24am The Oscar: Maybe it's the weirdness of the times, but I've been on a total Old Hollywood kick lately. This set is the perfect companion!
	9:24am DJ Guin: @melinda - sadly, i am not familiar with that airshift? my parents were young during this era and never kept any good records in the house. it is any wonder I have any taste in crooners.
	9:24am Marc Francis: Damn Joe. I love when you know exactly what I need to hear even when I don't.
	9:24am TDK60: This is the stuff my grandparents probably heard.
	9:25am djsheilab: I cannot believe “Are You Lonesome Tonight” wasn’t an Elvis original. I truly had no idea. Mind blown! Thanks Joe!
	9:25am DJ Guin: SheilaBeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
	9:26am The Oscar: @GFZ5 I had a similar revelation when I first heard Raymond Scott. I had heard all those tunes in so many cartoons that it was inconceivable that those were songs with names!
	9:26am Fragonard: This is a great show...really hits the spot!
	9:27am The Oscar: Somewhere I have some hokey charity comp that features Leonard Maltin singing this song!
	👻 9:27am LW Rhino: Hey Joe, do you have Alfalfa from the "Little Rascals" singing "Let me Call You Sweetheart" ( complete with soap bubbles)?
	9:27am yerfriendpaul: I wonder what Belle Baker would think of the overflow of talking pictures today?
	👻 9:27am Brian in UK: Oh the wonder of sitting in a darkened room with hundreds of people staring at a screen and sharing the experience all together. (this comment is not Covid-19 related).
	9:27am Rocky Horror: Can we just dial up Pennsylvania-5000 please
	9:29am Greg from ZONE 5: MONSTERS OF MEGAPHONE!!!
	9:29am Joe McG: Hi, Sheila B.! :) :) Don't worry folks, we'll move into the contemporary era in a moment or two....
	9:29am johnk77: @joemcg great show i think you mean 1910 instead of 1810
	9:30am morphe': Blue Monday??? Cry For Help????Cleaning out the 78s to make room for the 45s?? Do not scare us Joseph [middle name(s) Here] McGasko!!!!!
	9:30am wizard frog: @greg from zone 5 hah! (...thank you)
	👻 9:30am Brian in UK: Joe, hope those hamsters are getting paid union rate.
	9:30am listener james from westwood: I do love hearing the old shtuff, though. And I too didn't know until today that that Elvis track . . . wasn't originally an Elvis track!
	9:31am DJ Guin: i could listen to this era of music all day, Joe. let the others see what's on 'PLJ
	9:31am Nulsh: Contemporary shmontemporary! That doesn't look as funny written down as it did in ma' heid.
	9:31am Fragonard: NEVER clear out those Boff Wax Biscuits for wee ‘45s please!
	9:31am Baja Joe: The one and only time I cut away from WFMU is Sundays with Uncle Floyd's Garage Sale Music radio show. While I miss the Reggae show on WFMU, I instead get a terrific dose of true classic tunes and very corny jokes and gags on WFDU. Nice job of creating a similar vibe Joe M. I'm also enjoying the subtle theme. Brilliant.
	👻 9:31am LW Rhino: @ Greg from Zone 5: Do you have "Monsters of Megaphone UNPLUGGED"?
	9:32am melinda: @DJ Guin here it is: en.wikipedia.org...
	9:32am melinda: I could listen to this all day too.
	9:33am David (in London): Damn, that was a set of great old classics Joe. I'm in the mood to dress up and drink a Martini now.
	9:33am wizard frog: oh I see what you did there
	9:35am Crudbringer: ahh... back in the ear jacuzzi... morning everybody.
	👻 9:35am Brian in UK: Joe, these songs are just great compositions.
	9:36am DJ Guin: @melinda -- genuine thanks for the 411. this is why I adore this community. back before I was married..hoped to get hitched at the Automat on 42nd street...neither institution endured.
	9:37am TDK60: I'm old enough to recall the last automats. Think they were still around in NYC into the early 1970s.
	9:38am Handy Haversack: @TDK60, yeah, my dad frequented the automats -- he left the city in '64.
	9:39am Nardo: Chet Baker does a wonderful version of Ghost of a Chance.
	👻 9:39am LW Rhino: Maybe automats may come back now in these times of physical distancing.
	9:39am morphe': Fragonard - Wax Biscuits - I once called Rex to ask about the phrase "musical bisquit." He explained that the plastic was shaped like a bisquit before pressed... rexKnowledge - I am just the messenger..
	9:41am DJ Guin: trouble with the charm of NYC is that they pull buses filled with tourists to all of the great places..i get that tourism is vital, but, c'mon.
	9:43am Stanley: Greetings friends. I found that automats are still doing well in Holland and Japan. They are a thing of wonder. Can I have my goulash croquet now?
	9:44am TDK60: Cheesecake.
	9:44am The Butterman: I love Elvis’ live version when he is so bombed that he laughs hysterically for a min or two before getting his shit together.
	9:44am David (in London): Hey morphester and Stanley. Stanley, yes, I once had a decidedly ambiguous thing from an automat in Amsterdam.
	👻 9:44am Hughie Considine: The movie Paper Moon was pretty memorable for the line,"Shut up and eat your Coney Island. And drink your Nehi."
	9:44am DJ Guin: My Automat go-to was apple pie with melted cheddar and a cup of black coffee..with the NY Times...
	9:45am dave wuz here: i used to park my camper van in the desert in utah and mountains in colorado and play the ink spots under a stary sky. sigh.
	9:45am wizard frog: interesting podcast from 99% invisible on automats: 99percentinvisible.org...
	9:46am Joe McG: @Butterman: A classic! @wizard: Neat! @Hughie: I LOVE that line!
	9:47am Greg from ZONE 5: Jarvis, still killing it.
	9:48am Handy Haversack: Isn't "Must I Evolve?" also originally a Vaughn de Leath song?
	👻 9:48am Brian in UK: Automats are a complete unknown to me, apart from drink vending machines.
	9:48am Rocky Horror: Grape Nehi- the drink of a one Coporol Walter"Radar"O'Riley of the 4077th
	9:52am DJ Guin: Rocky Horror has season one of WALTE*R on Betamax
	👻 9:53am waters7: I like this Nick Lowe. He's a mensch.
	9:53am TDK60: Saw Lowe & Jackets a few years ago, an outdoor free concert. The Jackets were already masked up.
	9:55am WoodsOfNH: Greetings from rainy, windy New Hampshire. Bleah.
	9:55am Fragonard: @morphe Cool note there. (It pre-dates me, but hell, I always feel like I was born in the wrong era!)
	9:56am WoodsOfNH: Say, I rented the documentary Record Safari last night. Lots of interesting interviews, piles of vinyl, and a short segment with Sheila B! The bad part: now I want to buy ALL THE VINYL!!!!!
	9:56am Crei6hton: Morning!
	9:56am Matt Fiveash: That Nick Lowe song is so goddamn good! Studio version on the "Trombone" 4-song EP. Joe McG: if you haven't heard that song "Trombone" check it out. Right up your alley, kinda sounds like a Neil Diamond Bang side or something...
	9:57am Artie: Hey, I was there at the Haw River Ballroom to see Nick and the boys that night. Thought that sounded familiar!
	9:58am Jeffrey Davison: Damn, Courtney Marie Andrews is the best. I have to get this record. Hey there, Joe!
	9:58am Joe McG: @Woods: Oh, cool! I haven't seen it yet! @Matt: Yes, I've got to get a hold of his last couple of EPs. I'm hoping he'll do the sensible thing and put all this stuff on one LP or CD at some point. @Artie: Wow, that's so cool! The whole thing is up on Bandcamp if you want to relive it. Nick says the ballroom is beautiful! @Jeff: Hey, Jeff!!
	9:59am Brendan: Good moseyin’ music .
	9:59am morphe': TDK - Automats//mid 1970s there was still an automat in TSQ and the cigarette ad (which changed faces) with the smoke coming from the mouth.... At the very end, I think it changed to a steaming bowl of soup???
	9:59am morphe': Rhino - there are automats all over A'dam and the Nederlands and Japan and???
	👻 10:01am TristaC.LadyCaveBrat: Morning Joe and everybody! I now have meetings in the 10-11 time block and can't listen in when I'm not on mute. But I am hovering! Nice to be here.
	10:01am TDK60: Morphe. I'm ancient, recall that Times Sq. cigarette smoke! The last automat I recall was near the main post office and the newer Madison Sq. Garden, round W. 34th St.
	10:01am Joe McG: Nice to see you, TristaC! :)
	10:02am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning.
	10:02am Fishsmoker: JARV IS is far out!
	10:02am melinda: @Woods where is that available?
	10:04am WoodsOfNH: @melinda www.recordsafarithemovie.com (I think Sheila B said it was only available through April 30th.)
	10:05am WoodsOfNH: This appears to be a week for music docs because next up is Other Music and then the WBCN thing. Dang!
	10:05am testingwithfire: hi Joe and hi (again) commentariat... that new Nick Lowe / Straitjackets album on Bandcamp is worth a listen
	10:06am βrian: I love this Chip, but I find the name a bit silly.
	10:06am nematomorpha: whip chickham
	10:07am Handy Haversack: Hey, Phillippe!
	10:07am Joe McG: The "Other Music" doc is great, it made me very nostalgic for a New York that is no more. Tower on one side, OM on the other = record shopping happiness!
	10:09am TDK60: I was aghast when Other closed. Did they really have to close?
	10:10am WoodsOfNH: @Joe McG I can't remember the store he was in but it was the one with the massive collection in the basement. It reminded me of a place I went to one time out near Worcestor, MA called, hilariously, Al-Bums. The dust and mildew got to me but I found some absolute treasures.
	10:11am ParUbi: Such sweet, calming music this morning. I remember Tower Records from their Ann Arbor store. Lots of goodies in the import section...
	10:12am Phillippe Bastille: @handy how are you and Kate this AM?
	10:13am Malcolm: hi joe lovely set
	10:13am Handy Haversack: Getting by, Phillippe, getting by. Occasional rain, psyche-wise.
	10:14am Joe McG: @Malcolm: Terry Callier slays me.
	10:15am judy from croton: Right on target, Joe. Not the metaphor I want; more like applying the perfect balm for this morning
	10:15am Brendan: The quiet storm rages on
	10:16am Joe McG: @Judy: His voice is total balm for the soul! I listened to Terry Callier all weekend. It's hard to play just one song.
	10:16am Shira: Beautiful!
	10:18am Yes: good morning all
	👻 10:18am waters7: Willie Wright!
	👻 10:19am waters7: I read the playlist wrong--I do like Willie Wright--but I meant Terry Callier.
	10:19am WoodsOfNH: More entertainments (for fans of Nick Cave): I read this morning that Cave has created a continuously-updated youtube channel full of live stuff, etc. www.youtube.com...
	10:20am pantz: @Woods Whoa! That's my evening sorted.
	10:20am Jeffrey Davison: When I saw the name Willie Wright pop up on the playlist, I first thought you were playing the folkie. Came out of the same Chicago scene as Callier, but earlier, in the 50s. Largely forgotten, alas. https://www.discogs.com/artist/2708184-Willie-Wright-2
	10:21am Joe McG: @Jeffrey: It's a Willie Wright fake-out I didn't think anyone would get. Thanks for noticing, Jeffrey!
	10:22am TDK60: I was a VISTA worker for a while.
	10:23am Krys O.: Ooh, loving this Nina!!!!
	10:23am judy from croton: Woah. Totally forgot about Vista. Bring Vista back!
	10:23am Joe McG: How was it, TDK60?
	10:23am Krys O.: I remember Vista as a kid.
	👻 10:24am Hughie Considine: Lolita Haze : Well, the "vista-sister," that's like, "Lolita-sweeter." Humbert Humbert : That's very true. That's a very acute observation. If you were in my class I would give you an A plus.
	10:25am Eric from Lake Hiawatha: Thanks for the Willie Wright, compelling I had to stop, sit and enjoy
	10:25am judy from croton: @hughie: well done!
	10:25am TDK60: Joe, it was great, low pay, but rewarding. Community action group in West Virginia.
	10:26am Joe McG: My pleasure, Eric! @TDK60: Good to hear!
	👻 10:27am Webhamster Henry: Where can I sign up! www.nationalservice.gov...
	10:28am P-90: The great Herb Óscar Anderson, a big influence on beloved New York top forty deejay Dan Ingram.
	10:28am Phillippe Bastille: Hey Krys O., how's it going?
	10:28am melinda: Looking forward to watching all these music docs. I've found the Netflix movie suggestions lacking lately, and their limited series shows always keep me up past my bedtime.
	10:29am P-90: Vista was like a domestic counterpart to the Peace Corps.
	10:30am (another) Patrick in Hoboken: Thank you for this Vista sidebar Joe! Sounds like something we could do with now. Of course the usual suspects would chastise as “big government” and all that, but we need to do this kind of thing regardless...
	10:30am ilana: VISTA still exists! as a part of Americorps. pay still sucks but now they don't get Nina Simone to do radio spots :/
	10:31am Andrew Waterloo: One of my local shops is doing flip videos of everything in stock.. they have an incredible jazz section.. But everything is $100+
	10:31am Phillippe Bastille: @melinda this site has "cheat codes" for Netflix so you can reduce the impact of their algorithms on your searches: www.cheatsheet.com...
	10:32am ParUbi: Flutes rock! Even (especially) with heavier, rocking records...
	10:32am Andrew Waterloo: I picked up the Dollar Brand with Archie Scheppe album
	10:32am P-90: A lot of radio stations were grateful for the free programming (Voices of Vista), it also counted towards their FCC-mandated “public service program” weekly minimum.
	10:35am ?: Jo McG - Best radio show on the dial. Thanks for the music. Always a relief to listen to you on the air.
	10:36am Joe McG: Thanks, ?!
	10:36am Krys O.: Hey, Phillippe! Hanging in there. Best wishes to all!
	10:37am paul: Lennon/McCartney!
	👻 10:38am Brian in UK: Where the kerrs of the days. Oh Cilla.
	10:38am Malcolm: wow i'd love to hear that dollar brand archie shepp record
	10:38am Joe McG: @paul: Did they ever record a version of it?
	10:39am paul: As far as I know, no.
	10:39am Phillippe Bastille: Good to hear, Krys. "Hanging in there" is a goal I aim for every day
	👻 10:39am Hughie Considine: Nifty version of Step Inside Love by Bill Lloyd on the excellent Sing Hollies in Reverse tribute LP.
	👻 10:40am Brian in UK: Did the Stones ever record Blue Turns to Grey?
	10:41am paul: McCartney recorded the song on 16 September 1968 during The Beatles (a.k.a. "The White Album") sessions, but it did not appear on the album. After an impromptu performance of "Step Inside Love", McCartney led the group into "Los Paranoias", which (despite George Harrison not being present) was credited to all four members of the band. The two songs were released as a single track on Anthology 3 in 1996, and also appear on the deluxe version of 2018's 50th anniversary edition of "The White Album".
	10:41am TDK60: Never understood why the Fabs never did "World Without Love." They gave it Peter & Gordon. Great tune. // Brian. yeah I think it's on the US version of "December's Children" LP.
	10:41am Joe McG: @Brian: They did. It came out in the U.S. on "December's Children" but you guys didn't get it for a decade or more.
	10:41am Skullfarmer: Flute players Lizo vs Jethro Tull's Ian Andersin?
	10:42am DJ Guin: Lizzo cannot play. Debate over.
	10:43am tim from Champaign (now washington): Hey Joe and everybody!!!
	10:43am WoodsOfNH: Yeah, but can Ian Anderson play the flute while twerking?
	10:44am paul: I thought December's Children was a Stones LP.
	10:44am judy from croton: Love this song; already counted 3 little borrowed bits.
	👻 10:44am Hughie Considine: Great flute solos in pop music: "California Dreamin'" ... there are more.
	10:45am Faux Jean: Loving this show out here in Wisconsin. Thanks Joe.
	10:46am Joe McG: @paul: Brian was asking about "Blue Turns to Grey," a different example of a famous version of the song being by someone else but the group who wrote it. @Faux: Hey Jean, welcome from WI!
	10:46am Krys O.: TCM showed a movie last week called No Blade of Grass from 1970. It was about worldwide famine caused by a virus and it was ham-fistedly directed by Cornel Wilde. The weirdest thing was the theme song by Roger Whittaker. It made me think of you, Joe and FMU. youtu.be...
	10:47am Bill W: Like Joe, I grew up watching movies of my parents' era on TV, as I was reminded this weekend by watching the Marx Brothers impersonate Maurice Chevalier in MONKEY BUSINESS... which is likely the first time i heard Chevalier sing (when Harpo plays a record).
	10:47am pantz: Wonder what Touched By An Angel thought of this song.
	10:47am DJ Guin: @krys -- weirder still would be Johnny Whitaker
	10:47am Joe McG: @Krys: Wow, sounds fascinating! @Bill W: That scene still makes me howl when they are all going through customs pretending to be Chevalier!
	10:48am Andrew Waterloo: @Krys.. yah.. Criterion showed that one in February along with a bunch of other 70s apocalypse movies.
	10:48am paul: Thanks @Joe!
	10:48am judy from croton: Wow, Della; sounds like you’ve lived it. Feel it all the way
	10:48am Krys O.: Watching old movies on TCM has been my solace. I've been doing that since I was a tiny tot.
	10:48am ?: Della needs to not be scamming on married people though
	10:49am Andrew Waterloo: One Blade of Grass is so British.
	10:49am TDK60: I've never heard the Cliff Richards version of "Blue Turns To Grey" (which maybe proves I'm not English).
	10:50am Handy Haversack: @ParUbi (10:32): Have you checked out Wucan? Heard on WFMU, of course. Garbage Time? Heavy psych with strong flute! Super good.
	10:50am Joe McG: @Krys: I watched Lee Tracey last night in a silly one called "Crashing Hollywood." Enjoyed it muchly!
	👻 10:50am Hughie Considine: I think we'd be bereft of a lot great songs if infidelity didn't exist.
	10:50am Krys O.: By the way, the great comedic actor, Bobby Barber who appeared in the background of many old movies and TV shows was the guy in Monkey Business who has the frog in his throat. Harpo turns him upside down to let the frog out. It's fun to play spot Bobby Barber.
	10:51am Toothgrinder Tom: According to Wikipedia, Vista still exists for the time being as Americorps/Vista although its future is in doubt because its budget has been slashed (or simply eliminated) by the current administration.
	10:51am DJ Guin: BUDDY!! the real King of Rock n Roll.
	10:51am Krys O.: Crashing Hollywood sounds perfect and Jack Carson is in it too. He was so versatile.
	10:52am TDK60: Joe! You //have// this Holly 45? Wow.
	10:52am efd: I'd just like to acknowledge the LACK of surface noise on this 63 year old record!
	10:52am Krys O.: Excellent record care?
	10:52am Joe McG: @TDK & efd: So happy when I saw this MIGHTY clean BH 45 in the dollar boxes of a dealer a few months ago!
	10:53am Krys O.: A dollar?! Excellent!
	👻 10:53am Brian in UK: Thanks folks, Did not realise that December's Children was ever released here. @paul, it s one of those wonderful things about this station and Joe's show in particular that it sets you off on parallel lines. Then peope chip in, I know that the interent can answer all questions but it is not the same as listeners/DJs interacting
	10:54am Joe McG: @Krys: It's even in a Brunswick company sleeve. Probably ended up in the wrong box.
	10:55am Bill W: Lee Tracy was the master of "snappy patter." Joe Tex is the matter of growling patter.
	10:56am paul: This is crazier than "Chicken Crazy."
	10:56am WoodsOfNH: I had a 45 of "I Gotcha" when I was a kid. Sadly, I don't know where it went.
	10:56am Krys O.: @DJ Guin: I saw the 1973 Johnny Whitaker version of Tom Sawyer at Radio City Music Hall on a class trip.
	10:58am Krys O.: Little Black Egg always seemed to show up on the record show journeys made in the late 1980s. We called them record shows back then.
	10:59am Joe McG: Wish I'd been there - this copy isn't so hot!
	👻 10:59am Brian in UK: You could almost carbon date the Nightcrawlers to '65.
	11:01am DJ Guin: @Krys - I met Mason Reese at a local restaurant of minor notoriety in the 70's - bizarre little person
	11:01am Layet Johnson: Your theme song is just my favorite
	11:02am Dean: Late '76 I went on a high school theater trip to London and environs with attendees from multiple high schools. Johnny Whitaker was on the tour.
	11:03am P-90: That was a gloriously random Single File. Bravo, Joe!
	11:03am Krys O.: (Sung in the voice of Mason Reese) It's a small world after all!
	11:04am Krys O.: Note: I'm about the same height as Mason Reese.
	11:04am Listening Out There: Am listening finally, after a darn meeting. Enjoying what I've heard thus far...
	11:05am DJ Guin: @krys -- are you considered snack size or fun size?
	11:07am Dennis Diken: “That’ll Be The Day” (and b-side “I’m Looking For Someone To Love”) recorded 2/25/57 - the day I was born!
	11:07am DJ Guin: if too weird or personal -- i apologies. not my intent
	11:07am Dean: Pretty sure The Pooh (aka I Pooh) had a connection to another Italian pop group, I Beans.
	👻 11:08am Brian in UK: Gair-rhine-t. (Hard G)
	11:08am DJ Guin: R.I.P Robert Zimmerman!! ::pours out from his 40 oz. ::
	11:08am andy fuchs: I' pooh has been together 50 years and are basically the Italian Beatles... their the musical equal of Journey, amazing singing and musicianship..
	11:09am paul: A member of Bon Jovi survived the virus. :)
	11:09am P-90: Marianne’s survived worse.
	11:10am Handy Haversack: Daniel Kahn Gilmor (Techtonic guest) is a good friend of mine! We have known each other since I was six!
	11:10am paul: Marianne survived Keef..
	11:10am pantz: Hey Joe, are the DJ premiums getting mailed out after this Covid mess is over?
	11:12am David (in London): Handy, what's his speciality?
	11:12am Krys O.: It just occurred to me that it's been 25 years since Faithfull, Marianne's autobiography was published.
	11:13am Devin B.: My wife got her Garbage Time tank over the weekend. Thanks, skeletons! You are amazing!!
	11:14am Handy Haversack: Marty McSorley played ~6 Bohannon songs to start off his show Sat. night. @DiL, he's a technologist at the ACLU: privacy is really his specialty, I'd say, and freedom from abuse by govt. and corporations.
	11:15am melinda: That must be who they're referring to in that Tom Tom Club song. Mystery solved.
	11:15am Joe McG: Oh great, Handy, I missed it! Happy to hear it.
	11:15am Carmichael: Heya Joe. Little Black Egg was the first song I learned to play on guitar. Followed quickly by Secret Agent Man.
	11:16am Yes: Which Bohannon records should I begin with? I liked what I've heard off summertime groove
	11:16am Yes: seems like there are gems across the board
	11:17am David (in London): Handy, blimey, he's cut his work cut out for him for sure. Looking forward to listening to that later.
	11:18am Stanley: A good Bohannon set can be found here wfmu.org...
	11:18am Joe McG: @Yes: You can't go wrong with "Insides Out" or "Gittin' Off." I also love "Bohannon" and "Phase II" and "Too Hot to Hold." Actually, all of them!
	11:19am Jeffrey Davison: Excellent. Shirley sampled, followed by Shirley in the round.
	11:19am Joe McG: "Stop and Go" is his first one if you want to start at the start.
	11:19am TDK60: See, there's a flute in pop...except it's folk-rock and those sound more like recorders..
	11:20am TDK60: or maybe a mellotron?
	11:20am testingwithfire: That Della Reese track was smashing. Anyone else remember that nineties show about angels she starred in? Dull show, but Della sparkled.
	11:20am Carmichael: They're tin whistles.
	11:21am johnk77: the music explosion covered little black egg in 1966
	11:21am TDK60: Ah, got me. failed again, Carmichael.
	11:21am Joe McG: It's Robin Williamson playing tin whistle.
	11:22am Yes: thanks, joe!
	11:22am testingwithfire: @Stanley: I discovered Flash Strap's show this weekend and am the better for it @johnk77 Tarnation (with Paula Fraser) covered Little Black Egg in the nineties on their first album. It's the weakest track on that album, but that's because the rest of the record is so strong.
	11:23am Marc Francis: Yes! Thanks Joe. this is one of my all time favourite songs.
	11:24am Carmichael: Speaking of Robin Williamson ...
	👻 11:24am Hughie Considine: Flutes do occur in pop, but I'd say they are relatively rare in the upper reaches of the charts. Canned Heat's flute-dominated "Going Up the Country" is surely one of the great flutey hits.
	11:25am WoodsOfNH: @testingwithfire Touched By An Angel? Yeah, we watched it. Me, piggishly, because of Roma Downey.
	11:25am David (in London): I think Ian Anderson might have something to say about flutes, too.
	11:25am Carmichael: The guess Who's "Undun" is another.
	👻 11:26am Webhamster Henry: ISB is aways welcome.
	👻 11:27am Webhamster Henry: Autoharp Alert!
	11:28am Handy Haversack: Dig this song. Heard it once before, I think. Maybe on Surface Noise?
	👻 11:28am Hughie Considine: Yes, and a fine one too @Carmichael -- And from the "Canned Wheat" collection -- coincidence? I think not!
	11:29am johnk77: @testw/fire thanks for the info do not know tarnation will check out
	👻 11:30am Webhamster Henry: Double Autoharp Alert!
	👻 11:30am LastWhiteRhino: Come on everyone , let's hoist our tankards of mead and toast our DJ and all around good squire, Joe McGasko !
	11:31am Stanley: Thijs van Leer was my all time rock flautist. Otherwise, not that keen.
	11:31am Joe McG: Ha ha, thanks LWR, you're starting a little early today! ;)
	11:32am Joe McG: @Stanley: Good thing I didn't do that flute premium I was thinking about this year!
	11:33am P-90: Good morrow! I’ll have a 20 ounce tankard of Guinness. And there’s another farthing for you if it is brought by a lusty serving wench with a capacious bustle.
	👻 11:34am Webhamster Henry: I'm reposting this little list of rockin' autoharpists. mexicanspitfire.blogspot.com...
	11:34am Stanley: Bill Mac did a recorder/whistle premium, if I remember correctly.
	👻 11:35am p20: Hi Joe and WFMU friends! Happy Monday
	11:36am P-90: Flute premium could be a good thing
	11:36am pantz: Is this Welsh?
	11:37am WoodsOfNH: So is it just me or do weekends seem to vaporize these days?
	11:37am David (in London): P-90 - I cannot serve you unless you are wearing a doublet and hose. p20- Hello!
	👻 11:37am chresti: Morning Joe and folk!
	👻 11:37am Hughie Considine: @Stanley, Thijs is what I'm talking about. Seriously, though, the solo in "Hocus Pocus"? One for the ages...
	11:37am Joe McG: @P-90: I'll probably do it one day. @pantz: Yetth!
	11:38am pantz: @Joe doniol!
	11:39am Brendan: Michaelangelo ...amazing ... that was like the Freebird of Harpsichord.
	11:40am Brendan: Autoharp even
	11:40am Handy Haversack: Hey, p20, chresti.
	11:40am DJ Guin: I am holding out hope for anything Shatner or Nimoy before the end of this set.
	👻 11:40am Hughie Considine: Ah, the Free Bird of Harpsichord...followed closely by the Green Grass and High Tides of Harpsichord...
	11:40am Stanley: Sounds like the voice from sixties Bowie.
	11:41am dave wuz here: proto Frogs band
	11:41am Carmichael: I'd settle for Roy Wood's Lady Elaine.
	👻 11:41am chresti: Hi Handy.
	👻 11:41am karlward: Oh yeah
	11:41am Stanley: Kevin 'chipmunk' Coyne
	11:41am Handy Haversack: Coming in hot!
	👻 11:42am karlward: Come for Joe's velvet slippers, stay for the Chipmunk Coyne
	11:42am steveo: i must be getting older; i like it better at the correct speed :)
	11:43am Joe McG: That was an oops since I meant to play another record after Kongos. Oh well!
	11:43am RobW: So nice to hear a dj play a record at the wrong speed. Reminds me of listening to John Peel when I wuz a kid.
	👻 11:43am karlward: I think we need an A B C test, where Joe plays it sloooow next. I suspect I will enjoy Slow Coyne the most.
	11:44am lee in dublin: find myself listening to Kevin Coyne a lot right now, something about his voice fits this time, for me. And my introduction to him came via this show, thanks Joe
	11:44am RobW: And lord knows Peel played Kevin Coyne often!
	11:45am Joe McG: You're too kind, RobW! But I appreciate the Peel reference. I've decided his quote about surface noise is the reason I've called this show what it's called. Not true, but it's a good story. @lee: Cool, thanks for letting me know!
	👻 11:45am Brian in UK: I think that Kevin Coyne was on John Peel's Dandelion label.
	11:47am steveo: stuff happens, joe; glad you're here today; i suspect the sentiment is the reason, even if you hadn't heard the quote yet
	11:47am Brendan: Noooo ...go back! Trust your 45 rpm instinct!
	11:48am Joe McG: Yeah, we're actually going a bit Peel with some Dandelion artists right now! I like how this has worked out.
	11:51am melinda: This set has been an excellent soundtrack for my morning walk in the woods!
	11:51am WoodsOfNH: I was looking at the Peel archive recently. I found myself wishing I could have my music collection cataloged that like. Tons of work though...
	11:52am Krys O.: Thank you, Joe!
	👻 11:52am 12539: Thanks, Joe! Stay well and come back often.
	11:53am Santos L. Halper: Thanks Joe!
	👻 11:53am Hughie Considine: Thanks for making Monday (more than) tolerable, Joe!
	👻 11:54am Brian in UK: Peel proved that you do not have to play top 40 to be influential. Plough your own furrow. The most amazing thing being that the BBC employed him for so long. How could they not.
	11:54am Handy Haversack: Lovely show today, Joe! Really nice to be here. Thanks for being here, too! Much appreciated!
	11:54am listener 126464: Joe thanks much that was wonderful.
	11:54am David (in London): Another doozy today Joe, thanks.
	11:54am DJ Guin: tanks for the Monday accompaniment, Mistah McGasko.
	11:54am melinda: I could listen to this all day too.
	11:55am Joe McG: Hey, everybody, thanks for listening and commenting as I played these songs to keep you company. I hope you have a good week, and I'll see you next Monday with the crazy Random Pull experience. Be well!
	11:55am pantz: Great show, Joe! Have a wunderbar week.
	11:55am TDK60: Thanks for spinning, skeleton Joe.
	11:55am Stanley: This is lovely. Thanks Joe for the show and everything you do.
	11:56am David (in London): Brian, his sardonic intros on TOTP used to be solid Peel gold. I still remember "Russ Abbott there, with a cover of Joy Division's 'Atmosphere'."
	👻 11:57am p20: did anyone here check out the 24-hour drone event this past weekend?
	11:57am TDK60: (Some day, people looking at the archives may have to research why we're referring to skeletons.)
	👻 11:58am Webhamster Henry: @p20 I did a little, and I was also in the Tuning Meditation.
	11:59am melinda: @TDK haha
	👻 11:59am p20: Henry: Cool! I did the "Automatic Aleatoric" webstream
	11:59am ?: Sairie are from Brighton!!
	11:59am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, JMC!
	11:59am Luisa24: Lovely mood this morning! Thank you!
	11:59am steveo: thanks ! Joe !
	👻 11:59am Webhamster Henry: @p20 I did too .. I had to use VLC. I drone on and on myself.
	11:59am Joe McG: You're right, Brighton, sorry!
	👻 11:59am chresti: The year of the skeletons.
	👻 12:00pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks Joe - wonderful show as usual!
	👻 12:00pm chresti: Thanks Joe!
