Listener comments!

  3:02pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

that's a lesson in reverb. I'm always teaching my kids about the wonders of reverb.
  3:02pm
northguineahills:

A fill-in for Jim Price, lol. Jeff Sarge did an excellent job!
  3:06pm
Looms:

May the agnostic say Hello?
  3:07pm
Mike East:

@DCE - have you tried the Holy Grail pedal?
  3:09pm
Edmond:

The pop and click of an old LP! I miss that sound in this digital age.
  3:09pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

hey Mike, that's been on my list for awhile...should just break down and get it. For the kids, I teach them about reverb in tunnels and stuff...we bounce our voices around cemented areas, etc. FUN!
  3:09pm
PKNY:

This version of "To Love Somebody" is ridiculous, never knew that the Animals did a version...thanks for playing!
  3:13pm
Bridge:

Glad you're playin' this stuff.
  3:13pm
Mike East:

@DCE - its an important lesson to learn. The pedal is worth it...we got the newer one here (I think Holy Grail II)

Wonderful, many thanks for the tribute to both Donna and Robin, Scott
  3:31pm
Mike East:

I did my own Donna Summer tribute on Saturday while cleaning. Played through two LP's. I don't own enough Beegees, which must be corrected.
  3:32pm
Berg:

  3:34pm
musikoff:

Bringing back memories of the kitchen clock radio while Mom rocked instant oatmeal before school in Queens.
  3:35pm
Van in DC:

I should switch out the headphones for the speakers and crank this up in my cube farm :)
  3:35pm
Looms:

Groovy tribute(s) Scott!

Hello friends! So good to see y'all here celebrating 2 giants with me - feels like an irish wake, as it oughtta, right?
  3:43pm
Dave from Geese:

my wife is on page 1 of Ulysses
  3:43pm
Dave B:

You do know the difference between an Irish wedding and an Irish wake, right?

Participating again in June in a "Ulysses for Beginners" performance at a bar: fragmented outline notes, commentary and summaries, excerpts, visual aids. Love to love you, JJ.
  3:47pm
pierre:

Bonjour Scott !
Bonjour listeners !
  3:50pm
still b/p:

The collective term, I think, as in murder of crows and pride of lions, is a "bellyache of Zagnuts."
  3:51pm
Bridge:

rainy days and mondays ;)
  3:51pm
blacktooth:

That last set had me dancin', dancin', Danson, Danson, dancin'......
  3:51pm

aha! I was fully expecting to hear the Marbles - thanks for the explanation.
  3:55pm
Diane:

I always eat a box of Zagnut bars (8) on Mondays, and then I reign it in pretty much for the rest of the week. My husband is worse. He eats several packages of Switzer's Root Beer Licorice a day! Loving Scott's show.
  3:56pm
Dave B:

@Scott - this one?

Scott:

it's that Screaming Trees / Yo La Tengo collab you've been waiting for!
  4:10pm
Dave from Geese:

i must say-I think the sleeve is kind of ace myself
  4:12pm
Dave from Geese:

laminated electric blue, gold writing, Robin in a Busby looking like a loony-- I love it-- also not many 69 70 records feature drum machine throughout!-- although thats possibly not relevant to the sleeve thing
  4:15pm
efd:

Nice version of "Starry Eyes" - hadn't heard that one before. Quite an all-star lineup, too!
  4:18pm
Carmichael:

OK, hello there Scott. And hello dere listeners.
  4:19pm
Dave B:

The Bee Gees Rhythm Machine kicked Shaun Cassidy's Electronic Organs ass...

happy with the orbit service
  4:26pm
Carmichael:

Hi Scott, I just saw a documentary last night on Roger Salloom (Salloom Sinclair & Mother Bear). Totally intrigued, and I thought of WFMU. If you know of or about them, any comment or song would be appreciated.
  4:28pm

  5:24pm
northguineahills:

Wow! A Faust cover!
  5:29pm
Carmichael:

A little late, but thanks Scott for Cleaners From Venus. I discovered Martin Newell a few years ago and enjoy his angle on music.
  5:31pm
Droll:

Has Medicine been reissued? I listened to my MiniDisc (!!!) copy of this song a few weeks ago and thought about replacing it with a CD... I loved the American Shoegaze sound.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:33pm
Scott:

@Droll, yup - Captured Tracks doing the full-on 2-CD w/ extras treatment
  5:34pm
Charlie:

Loved Starry Eyes by The Records, love it even more by Dr Janet
  5:36pm
Carmichael:

Oh, THAT Starry Eyes. I loved that song when it came out. I was overseas and not in touch with anything western, and I saw The Records and PF's The Wall sitting on a record store shelf. Glad I was tempted to buy.
  5:43pm
Droll:

Scott, Thanks for the Captured Tracks clue. I see they also released a LP box set on Record Store Day (and sold out). I probably would have squealed like a schoolgirl if I ran into that on RSD.
  5:44pm
Carmichael:

Thre's your reverb, DCE.
  5:49pm
Michele:

Enjoyed the show! Love this Melchior track, reminds me of Syd.

Thanks Michele! Yeah, he's singing about a girl who only eats the white part of the egg, awesome
