Playlist for John Allen - March 5, 2008

Wednesdays 6am - 9am (Web-only) on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot."

Delayed reaction post: I'm so thrilled about the Michael Hurley CD! The Black Dice = perfect soundtrack for an evening's textile-dye-vat experiments, but that Hurley track [and story] had me tearing off the gloves to make the call. Thanks so much for the horizon expansion!
