I picked up the Van der Graaf Generator "H is To..." reissue LP last weekend because of the jam you played off of it last week. Thanks! | |

"Siesi"? Thanks. Still a mystery, I guess. Is it Italian? |

Cool, Tim. Hope you liked it. |

Are Pretty Things actually Badfinger? | |

Thu. 4/12/12 12:50pm
Dave M:
Not as far as I know. I think a bunch of Badfinger members were no longer with us when that song was recorded. |

Thanks for playing Sadistic Mika Band. Of course, WFMU is the ONLY place I would expect to hear it, outside of my own record collection. | |

spazioli:
just tuned in, and overheard the bit about really odd time signatures... but didn't catch which song was being referenced. help me out? | |
|

♥
Thu. 4/12/12 1:07pm
Dave M:
Yeah, they're only considered Classic Rock here at FMU. |
|

Thu. 4/12/12 1:08pm
Dave M:
I was talking about Red. At the beginning, they do three measures of 5/4, and another that sounds like it's going to be 5/4 but is actually 6/4. |
|
|
♥
Thu. 4/12/12 1:09pm
Dave M:
It's subtle but really brilliant. Definitely intended to trick your ear. |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:09pm
Steve:
Alright David! | |

Thu. 4/12/12 1:09pm
spazioli:
thanks dave! i'll listen to it carefully after the show :-) | |

Thu. 4/12/12 1:10pm
Dave M:
OK. It's the intro, at the very beginning of the song ("Red"). |

Hey bass player! | |

Thu. 4/12/12 1:13pm

Former bass player, unfortunately. |

KevinfromBayRidge:
Good Day one & all, I guess the "M" in FMU stands for Mandl this last week! Great to have such a fine and upstanding native Brooklynite doing the fill-in role proud. | |

Thu. 4/12/12 1:16pm

Thanks Kevin. Hello, Bay Ridge! |

Deep Purple sticks it to the man! | |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:27pm
bruceleh:
What's the issue with playing the Deep Purple? Bootlegs verboten? | |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:28pm
dc pat:
man, can't listen to Deep Purple without thinking of Jesus H. Christ anymore. | |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:28pm
Steve:
Does Ian Paice have a grammy, oscar, medal of freedom? | |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:28pm
bruceleh:
Or is the problem exceeding your 2% rock'n'roll content? | |
|
|
♥
Thu. 4/12/12 1:29pm
Dave M:
No, it's more like *nine minutes* of Deep Purple. |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:30pm
bruceleh:
LOL! | |

Thu. 4/12/12 1:30pm
Dave M:
This band completely kicked butt. Yes, Ian Paice, great drummer. Ian Gillan was also a great singer. |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:31pm
KevinfromBayRidge:
Don't worry Dave. The POP music Police will give you pass and rack it up to the "ironic" category! But don't expect any pay raises soon! | |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:32pm
dc pat:
JEEZE, isn't there ANYbody in Deep Purple NOT named Ian?? | |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:33pm
Listener Jimbo:
Surprising how much I remember of this from listening to MIJ in the '70s. | |

OOPS. I forgot that you're not played it @16rpms! | |

chris:
I'm not sure the FMU executive team could fire someone who plays Keiji Haino. Even if the preceeding track was Deep Purple. We've got your back. Awesome set. | |

Thu. 4/12/12 1:37pm
Steve:
Made in Japan also | |

@Jim: Is that true????? |

Thu. 4/12/12 1:53pm
Jennique:
Devo is one of my all-time favorite bands and I'm happy you're playing them. Their music still holds up to today, in my book. LOVELOVELOVE that Diane named her cats Mr. Kamikazi and Mr. DNA. Brilliant. | |

Blockhead! | |

Devo is still ahead of their time. Bob I rules. | |

Dan from Toronto:
I dunno I kinda like it like this... | |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:56pm
Jim:
Dave, if you go to allmusic.com, you will see Red at the top of the home page. | |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:56pm
dc pat:
it's funny too that every true punk rocker I know always lists Devo as one of their faves. | |

@Jim: Whoa, you're right. |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:57pm
Dan from Toronto:
Devo mashed up with Yasunao Tone... kinda nice... | |
|
Thu. 4/12/12 1:58pm
ifny:
whoa, the suspense! is it supposed to do that or not? wait, does it matter? like an ugly child, i love it anyway. | |

Why would I lie? | |

It's just an amazing coincidence. |

isn't it 6/4? | |

This reminds me of the League of Crafty Guitarists. | |

dc pat:
11/8, shit you're right, had to listen to it again. Way more complicated than I thought. | |

...Glad to see you're subbing again, Mr. Mandl (no "e")... | |
