Playlist for John Allen - June 17, 2009

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."

Listener comments!

Wed. 6/17/09 6:31am From: Ken From Hyde Park

Hey Iceland, have a happy National Day. Any listeners from Iceland here today? Is your economy getting better?

Wed. 6/17/09 6:38am From: JA

why do you have to taunt the icelanders ken?

Wed. 6/17/09 8:07am From: Eileen

Whats the difference between Ireland and Iceland?

Wed. 6/17/09 8:08am From: Parq

John, glad to know you're staying put. Eileen, one letter.

Wed. 6/17/09 8:10am From: eileen gogan

Wed. 6/17/09 8:14am From: Parq

Plus, Bjork is cuter than Bono.

Wed. 6/17/09 8:16am From: Ken From Hyde Park

Wasn't meant as a taunt. I read a magazine article in the gym recently. They took a real beating in the financial markets and I was wondering if anyone from there was tuned in. The article said people couldn't keep up payments on their Range Rovers and resorted to blowing them up for insurance money. The article was in Salon magazine, if I recall correctly.

Wed. 6/17/09 8:26am From: Seamus

Ken
Yes, Iceland has since had special elections to oust the former government,and a debate over how to invest or whether to invest at all in foreign markets continues. Good news is that with nations that small, rebounding from situations like these is a bit easier.

Wed. 6/17/09 8:26am From: Parq

Ken, just a little gallows humor. God knows NYC is in no position to laugh at other place's economic collapses.

Wed. 6/17/09 8:43am From: annie
