	9:52am sugarwolf: good morning...
	9:56am Cecile: this song will not be in my head at all.
	9:57am Joe McG: I know you hate them, Cecile. Sorry!
	9:57am Cecile: No, I don't hate them. I just never remember their songs.
	9:58am Cecile: I've tried.
	9:58am Joe McG: I love them.
	9:59am Cecile: and never apologize, never explain. I love that people love them. I love it when people love bands I don't like or remember. I like a lot of stuff people hate, so it feels fair.
	9:59am βrian: Bonjour les auditeurs ! It's a beautiful day here on the isthmus.
	9:59am annie: omg, my new favorite song, how did i live my adult life without hearing that band!
	9:59am Cecile: brian!!!
	10:01am βrian: Cecile! (No A² nostalgia today, I promise.)
	10:02am Cecile: OK, I've been a broken record about this, but Argent's Liar is a great song and should be rediscovered. I loved it. Some other folks didn't. You can always email me when you get homesick for A2
	10:03am Joe McG: @Cecile: I like it OK, too, but most of that album is pretty boring.
	10:03am Cecile: I agree. They were a singles band fo' sure.
	10:04am Cecile: that 8 song greatest hits is pretty perfect.
	10:04am Cecile: And Russ Ballard's Winning is a great f'ing pop album.
	10:05am Cecile: you got me on that Russ Ballard jag, sir.
	10:05am Joe McG: Ha!
	10:06am Cecile: Now this is a song I love.
	10:06am common: roxy!
	10:08am tadpoles: A song for Humphrey Bogart written with a 2HB pencil!
	10:08am pierre: Just like that, a friend saw a poster of a drawing for a asian restaurant, and it was the cover jacket of "Transformer" saying "take a wok on the wild side"
	10:10am Marc Francis: I see what you did there Joe!
	10:11am Marc Francis: Humphry Bogart => Ingrid Bergman
	10:11am Joe McG: Could NOT resist!
	10:12am Marc Francis: Nice one!
	10:12am FernandoBelmondo: This is a more than perfect set for rainy day like this in Sao Paulo
	10:13am Ear Hammer: Dion! Dion! Dion!
	10:13am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe & all!
	10:13am melinda: Good morning! Just now tuning in, this Dion is really nice.
	10:14am Joe McG: EAR! HAMMER!
	10:16am Ear Hammer: I usually just lurk the comments while listening but Dion pulled me from the darkness AND INTO THE LIGHT.
	10:16am Joe McG: Morning, Melinda, thanks for coming. Thanks, Fernando!
	10:17am wendy del formaggio: Wow. This puts Dion in a whole 'nuther light. This is great stuff. Thanks, Joe!
	10:18am the Canterbury wood-elf: organic protein?!
	10:20am Joe McG: Nice to see you, Wendy! I hope all is well with cheese.
	10:20am ChrisB.: OMG Scott Miller!!!
	10:21am Listener Alexandra: RIP, Scott. Thanks for this one, Joe.
	10:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...RayydeoRayydeo - yipyip...
	10:21am Joe McG: Alex! Nice to see you, too!
	10:22am Cecile: he's singing it better than Stipe!
	10:22am βrian: As I remember, Wendy lives in the real dairy state. You know, where one actually sees cows outdoors.
	10:23am ChrisB.: I can't wait for the next Omnivore Game Theory reissue. We're just getting to the good stuff.
	10:23am Listener Alexandra: Nice to be seen :-) Sleepy morning greetings from sunny San Diego!
	10:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: He must've been a genius if he ciphered the lyrics to this.
	10:27am Cecile: I love this song, but I also always think, "with your laundry list, you might want to keep looking"
	10:27am Joe McG: @Cecile: Exactly! Ha ha! No wonder he can't find one.
	10:28am βrian: I think cooking for love is a better strategy.
	10:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - not the strongest song or track - just Marriott's voice pushes it to the back wall of the theater...
	10:29am Cecile: That is the Bobby Womack song! It's reworked, but it is.
	10:30am Cecile: but they still don't make any sense.
	10:30am Cecile: am I a special snowflake? I think Odds and Sods might be my favorite Who album
	10:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - that's kewl Cecile.
	10:32am Cecile: I think it's because they aren't trying so hard.
	10:32am Kelly Jones: Joe, And yet ANOTHER morning saved from the black thoughts by JOE M. Cat home from vet, prognosis...life, at least for awhile longer.
	10:32am βrian: Pick the tomatoes in the morning … by the end of the day, lasagna happens.
	10:33am Polyus: Aw, what's wrong with kitty?
	10:34am Cecile: hahahaha
	10:34am Marcel M: OH SHIT! I love this song! I am a DJ I AM WHAT I PLAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!!!!
	10:35am Joe McG: Aw, Kelly, I'm very happy to hear that!
	10:35am Mike East: This song makes me wanna be a dj so I can play this song
	10:35am MD: jOE yOU aRE sO MUCH MORE!!!
	10:36am SeanG: Bowie/Belew/Eno!!
	10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @C'ec: It shows the eccentricity & humor & diversity of The Wh♂: There was tension between Petey as Grande Composer, Roger as Live Setlist maker (we are just a bitchen RawkBand - Moon here somewhat too), & Entwistle as wry dark humorist & dark horse (the George of the band) - Long Live Rock & Kitties.
	10:37am Joe McG: Aw, thanks, MD! Love that bad single edit, Marcel!
	10:37am MD: FMU DJ's are SPIRITE GUIDES!!!
	10:37am Cecile: oh, this is a great single.
	10:37am βrian: @SeanG: That's a rather scandalous assertion.
	10:38am Mike East: efd?
	10:38am Marcel M: Was that cut shorter, Joe?
	10:38am Marcel M: I had only heard the album version.
	10:38am Joe McG: @Marcel: Yeah, they cut out the "Time goes by, when you're having fun...break his heart..." part.
	10:39am MD: XCESS FAT....KA BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!
	10:39am MD: TRY READING!!!!
	10:39am Marcel M: @Joe: Ahhh... thats why it sounded so weird.. the best part is when that stops and it kicks back in!
	10:40am wendy del formaggio: Joe, cheese is great. I wrote about it yesterday. Brian: correct. Cows are within about a mile from me. Sheep are even closer! And I live in a town with ~12K residents. I like where I live.
	10:41am MD: this set is turning out....EPIC!!!!
	10:41am Joe McG: Share a link, Wendy, and everyone can read it!
	10:41am wendy del formaggio: Time for me to sign off. Gotta go interview someone for a food article. Have a lovely day, everyone!
	10:42am Cecile: you too, Wendy!!!
	10:43am MD: I need to say it again....EPIIIIIIIIIK!!!!!!
	10:44am Joe McG: @MD: Ha ha ha! I wish I'd brought an Epic 45 today!
	10:44am Parq: Aw gee, I missed the Cosmopolitans! Backed with "Wild Moose Party", I note, a viral kitty thing before there were such things.
	10:46am Nick: Wow, Thanks for that! I last heard that song on WLIR in 1980.
	10:48am Joe McG: Cool, Nick, glad you liked it!
	10:48am KP: Sure this is not Tammy Faye Starlight?
	10:49am βrian: In Wisconsin all the cows are in big industrial barns, never seeing the light of day, to say nothing of fresh grass.
	10:53am Cecile: northern Wisconsin I've seen lots of cows
	10:55am melinda: I saw some pretty cows grazing in roadside fields in Wisconsin but that was about 22 years ago.
	10:55am Carmichael: Heya Joe and fans. Was that Scott Miller from Game Theory back there? RIP, Scott. I used to play with those guys sometimes in college.
	10:56am Joe McG: @Carm: A-yup! What band were you in, Carm?
	10:56am melinda: Is Wendy in VT? More Jerseys there. They're the prettiest.
	10:57am Cecile: yes!
	10:57am Tusalava: BERTHA!
	10:58am Cecile: I think Bertha should show up in the Star Wars reboot
	10:59am Cecile: "I'll sock it to you Vadie!"
	10:59am Stevel: Too bad this came out before Jabba the Hut made the scene. Such potential there. "Intergalactic space age things." Oh to be the writer of those pearls.
	11:00am Joe McG: Ha ha ha!
	11:00am Stevel: Cecile nails it.
	11:01am Parq: Yes, I was going to thumbs-up Cile's take, too.
	11:01am Cecile: Someone needs to make that into a velvet painting. Bertha Butt and Darth Vader on a Saturday Night Fever dance floor.
	11:01am Carmichael: Joe, I was in a lot of local bands you probably never heard of. The big hitters in those days were Game Theory and the Spydells.
	11:02am Polyus: @Cecile - Ha!
	11:02am Cecile: JAZZ HANDS
	11:02am Tusalava: Epic.
	11:02am Carmichael: Or playing cards with dogs.
	11:03am Polyus: I remember someone (Ken?) playing JCB's 'Caveman' 45 at 33 rpm, which made it even funnier.
	11:04am thedunkel: Velvet Hammer - that's awesome
	11:07am Cecile: dean? where are you? or the wood-elf?
	11:08am Dean: Present.
	11:10am Ken From Hyde Park: Wood-elf was around earlier this morning.
	11:11am Cecile: what do you know about harvest-era pop?
	11:12am Rick from SC: Joe, I have a Spontaneous Combustion album. Haven't listened to it in ages.It has a cool comic book like cover
	11:12am Cecile: thanks, rick!
	11:12am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Was DJ from Lodger? I started singing Yassassin for no reason the other day.
	11:12am Mark R: Looked up Spontaneous Combustion on a site called progarchive. com. Tony Brock, drums; Gary Margretts, guitar and vocals; Tristian Margretts, bass and vocals. Their first album was produced by Greg Lake. The consensus seems to be that they were a psychedelic band that started recording just exactly when psychedelic rock went out of fashion in the early 70s. Poor bastards.
	11:15am Dean: At the moment, I can't even think of a band that qualifies, that is, not unless I cheat and check the playlist. Pink Floyd? Naw. Aptly, Barclay James Harvest had early releases on Harvest. For a second, I thought, "Pilot?" Nope, EMI.
	11:16am pierre: German folk rock, than there gotta to be some "Witthüser & Westrupp" ?
	11:16am pierre: German folk rock, than there gotta to be some "Witthüser & Westrupp" ?
	11:16am pierre: (sorry for the repetition)
	11:17am Mark R: Actually, Dean, I think Pink Floyd did record for Harvest.
	11:17am melinda: I like German folk rock so far. Great idea.
	11:18am Dean: They did, Mark R, but are they "pop"? "Money," yeah, but the earlier stuff?
	11:19am Joe McG: @pierre: I think there will be!
	11:19am Carmichael: Yes, Ummagumma. Also Edgar Broughton, Deep Purple ( I think 2 albums) and Kevin Ayers.
	11:19am KP: Nice Electric Sitar!
	11:20am Brian in UK: Looking forward to the break and our esteemed DJs pronounciations!!!
	11:20am pierre: Grand Joe ! I love german folk.
	11:22am melinda: Most sitar in folk rock sounds good to me but now and then I hear a passage that reminds me of Spinal Tap. Which isn't bad, just funny.
	11:23am Brian in UK: I am getting dwarfs dancing round a minature Stonehenge. Yes, I know it is unfair and mean.
	11:23am Cecile: pentanguläre
	11:24am Kees: Kraut und Rüben (WDR) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL88F73F844755E67C German documentary on 'krautrock' & more, cut up in many parts. Bröselmaschine are in there somewhere.
	11:24am Joe McG: Any German-speakers who want to contribute translations on the playlist please feel free!
	11:24am Mark R: Oh I see what your question was Dean. According to wikipedia (an impeccable source, I know), Harvest was created by EMI to release progressive rock and compete with labels like Decca's Deram imprint, which you probably remember had the Moody Blues. In the US they were distributed by Capitol. By the end of the 70s, they had switched to more New Wave-type acts like Wire, Thomas Dolby and Duran Duran. Sounds like they never produced the kind of revenue their corporate parents were hoping for.
	11:24am maja: Big smile and big pounding of my heart over here. For you Mr DJ and the rest of you over there
	11:24am Dean: There's quite a medieval flavor to these German folk tunes, "La Rotta" being, precisely, a medieval dance melody. Fans of this would adore recordings of Troubadour and Trouvere songs performed by Rene Clemencic's ensemble. Also their survey of songs from the Carmina Burana.
	11:25am Dean: How did I not think of Wire?!
	11:25am Kees: "The seven arch angels are bringing us spliffs,,,"
	11:26am Polyus: This is excellent, Joe. Which probably says something about my advancing age.
	11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wire on 'Floyd's label'. Hm.
	11:28am Mick: This stuff is so much fun! Once again, Joe saves Thursday.
	11:28am Joe McG: My heart also pounds, maja!
	11:29am Cecile: Wire were the most prog of the punk groups.
	11:29am Kees: Orienta On the search of a new way we are knocking on heavens door a man named Petrus opened very gently and he asked: "Are you the guys, that should come, and bring us the shit?" we scratch out, all we knew, even us and we enter, into the eternal spring we see the heavenly host with their eternal joints, sitting on their clouds and their singing rised inexorable in the hands of the sun the seven archangel bringin' us our eternal joints and together we floating to the indeciduous love-meadow and we join in into the canticle of the angles on Lordid Drack http://psychedelic-jukebox.blogspot.nl/2008/09/1971-witthueser-westrupp-orienta.html
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'Der Fuchs' is indeed 'pentanguläre'...
	11:30am coelacanth: Good morning Joe and McNoisters
	11:30am Brian in UK: Was Mr Rotten a prog fan?
	11:31am Cecile: kees, cool. That's like a stoner version of Aphrodite's Child's 666
	11:31am Cecile: Mr. Rotten loved Can and King Crimson.
	11:32am Kees: And Van Der Graaf Generator
	11:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 666 zackly. - & Lydon sold acid @ Hawkwind shows.
	11:32am pierre: I have a massive soft spot for German Folk
	11:33am Dean: "Wire were the most prog of the punk groups." Particularly by 1979's "154." Only just occurred to me that "Pink Flag" might have been a nod to the other Pink Fl---. Gilbert and Lewis's Dome and other projects continued exploration of the prog direction.
	11:33am Greg from ZONE 5: The post-Single File set is like a box of chocolates...
	11:34am northguineahills: Even though I've heard most of these Deutsch groups, I haven't heard these individual tracks. Frickin' awesome!
	11:34am Dean: Rotten's favorite record was "Tales from Topographic Council Tenancies."
	11:35am βrian: @Dean: Thanks for the Rene Clemencic tip. Gonna order some Troubadour music.
	11:36am Kees: Bröselmaschine featured among all the other big names of the time http://www.ebay.at/itm/SOUNDS-Nr-38-April1972-CREAM-Jack-Bruce-KRAAN-CAN-Broeselmaschine-John-McLaughlin-/231658147200?clk_rvr_id=890549569598&rmvSB=true
	11:37am coelacanth: maja- very,VERY fine art work there!
	11:38am Brian in UK: Chris Squire passed away the other month. I saw Yes in 1969 just after their first album was released. Jon Anderson was scat singing with Jon Hendricks on a couple of numbers. Really.
	11:39am Dean: @βrian: Super! For a later repertoire, try this amazing solo flute record by Clemencic: http://www.discogs.com/Ren%C3%A9-Clemencic-Clemencic-Et-Ses-Fl%C3%BBtes/release/1397438
	11:41am Cecile: really interesting and enlightening set.
	11:42am Cecile: this could be a cool premium
	11:42am maja: coelacanth! Thank you!
	11:43am Dean: Oh mein Gott! This Hölderlin was a staple back in the day.
	11:43am Brian in UK: I keep hearing the beginnings of songs that I think I know that change to something else.
	11:45am chris: danke fur dis fine set dis morgen, Joe! yodel!
	11:45am Kees: a more recent band Ostzonensuppenwürfelmachenkrebs (OZSWMK) - Die Pest https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTRaiK4zwa4
	11:46am Dean: @Kees: Three times real fast?
	11:46am Joe McG: You bet, Chris! @Kees: Thanks for the links!
	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Only on FMU.
	11:49am Cecile: out on the streets for a living...
	11:49am βrian: Coming up in 10 minutes on the Drummer Stream: Busy Doing Nothing (avec charlie): wfmu.org...
	11:49am pierre: "caterpillars running free"… now THAT's folk
	11:50am V Priceless: haha...Black Diamond...
	11:50am Cecile: VP, hahahah
	11:51am markdavess: With all the German and the vibe over the last half hour or something I was reminded of Hans Eckhart Wenzel, a DDR and now German 'Liedermacher', or maybe 'bard' who a friend played for me in Leipzig not long after reunification. 'Stirbt Mit Mir Ein Stück - Liebeslieder' (Die With Me a Little - Lovesongs', 1986, is the album I know, and his first. The song my friend loves was 'Verlassenes Bett', 'Deserted Bed' which you can find on YouTube. Maybe you know him, but if not maybe you'll like it. Listening now it's not as quite as 'archaic' sounding as I'd remembered, but close.
	11:52am Cecile: I guess the folk I like better is when a swain brings his lady love a caterpillar, and it's really a metaphor for something in his pants.
	11:52am Joe McG: Happy to check it out, markdavess--thanks!
	11:53am markdavess: You're welcome.
	11:53am Cecile: or some kind of terrible witch spell.
	11:53am chris: under an old oak in the moonlight, he gave to her his caterpiller
	11:53am pierre: @Cecile : I hear you
	11:53am Dean: Sometimes a caterpillar is just a caterpillar.
	11:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...now I'm thinking Goblin a tiny bit...
	11:54am Cecile: this I dig. sounds like witches
	11:54am Joe McG: Ending today with a bit of wyrd folk from Germany. Thanks for listening and commenting everyone! Enjoy the rest of your August!
	11:54am Brian in UK: Nice one, Joe.
	11:55am markdavess: Die spinnen, die Deutche!
	11:55am Dean: OTOH, I think there is something going on in John Heywood's "The Merry Play between Johan Johan the Husband, Tyb his Wife, and Sir Johan, the Priest" with the hole in the bucket.
	11:55am Kees: Dean: Fast? Almost.
	11:56am Dean: There's already a band called Toyboat Toyboat Toyboat.
	11:58am Claw!: Tanks for the tunes, Joey Boy. Enjoy the rest of the week. Later, Peoples!
	11:58am KP: See ya, Joe
	11:58am Nordens fåglar: Good stuff, perfect. I´m packing my bags, going to Portugal tomorrow morning for week, that´s where some eagles dare, and all kind of birds, and here the rain keeps pouring down. /Hisingen, Gothenburg
	11:59am Cecile: nick der Abstreifer ist ein Fett kleine Insekt
	11:59am melinda: Great last set, Joe!
	11:59am Cecile: play the whole thing next week.
	11:59am chris: the name of the group made me suspicious it was from: Kalachakra which is a term used in Vajrayana Buddhism that means wheel of time or "time-cycles".
	11:59am Mark R: You really challenged yourself with all these band names with nine consonants in a row, plus a couple umlauts.
	12:00pm coelacanth: Thanks Joe! later on folks!

	9:17am pierre: I know Cheri Pi, I know… but what can I say ?

	9:52am sugarwolf: good morning...
	9:56am Cecile: this song will not be in my head at all.
	9:57am Joe McG: I know you hate them, Cecile. Sorry!
	9:57am Cecile: No, I don't hate them. I just never remember their songs.
	9:58am Cecile: I've tried.
	9:58am Joe McG: I love them.
	9:59am Cecile: and never apologize, never explain. I love that people love them. I love it when people love bands I don't like or remember. I like a lot of stuff people hate, so it feels fair.
	9:59am βrian: Bonjour les auditeurs ! It's a beautiful day here on the isthmus.
	9:59am annie: omg, my new favorite song, how did i live my adult life without hearing that band!
	9:59am Cecile: brian!!!
	10:01am βrian: Cecile! (No A² nostalgia today, I promise.)
	10:02am Cecile: OK, I've been a broken record about this, but Argent's Liar is a great song and should be rediscovered. I loved it. Some other folks didn't. You can always email me when you get homesick for A2
	10:03am Joe McG: @Cecile: I like it OK, too, but most of that album is pretty boring.
	10:03am Cecile: I agree. They were a singles band fo' sure.
	10:04am Cecile: that 8 song greatest hits is pretty perfect.
	10:04am Cecile: And Russ Ballard's Winning is a great f'ing pop album.
	10:05am Cecile: you got me on that Russ Ballard jag, sir.
	10:05am Joe McG: Ha!
	10:06am Cecile: Now this is a song I love.
	10:06am common: roxy!
	10:08am tadpoles: A song for Humphrey Bogart written with a 2HB pencil!
	10:08am pierre: Just like that, a friend saw a poster of a drawing for a asian restaurant, and it was the cover jacket of "Transformer" saying "take a wok on the wild side"
	10:10am Marc Francis: I see what you did there Joe!
	10:11am Marc Francis: Humphry Bogart => Ingrid Bergman
	10:11am Joe McG: Could NOT resist!
	10:12am Marc Francis: Nice one!
	10:12am FernandoBelmondo: This is a more than perfect set for rainy day like this in Sao Paulo
	10:13am Ear Hammer: Dion! Dion! Dion!
	10:13am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe & all!
	10:13am melinda: Good morning! Just now tuning in, this Dion is really nice.
	10:14am Joe McG: EAR! HAMMER!
	10:16am Ear Hammer: I usually just lurk the comments while listening but Dion pulled me from the darkness AND INTO THE LIGHT.
	10:16am Joe McG: Morning, Melinda, thanks for coming. Thanks, Fernando!
	10:17am wendy del formaggio: Wow. This puts Dion in a whole 'nuther light. This is great stuff. Thanks, Joe!
	10:18am the Canterbury wood-elf: organic protein?!
	10:20am Joe McG: Nice to see you, Wendy! I hope all is well with cheese.
	10:20am ChrisB.: OMG Scott Miller!!!
	10:21am Listener Alexandra: RIP, Scott. Thanks for this one, Joe.
	10:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...RayydeoRayydeo - yipyip...
	10:21am Joe McG: Alex! Nice to see you, too!
	10:22am Cecile: he's singing it better than Stipe!
	10:22am βrian: As I remember, Wendy lives in the real dairy state. You know, where one actually sees cows outdoors.
	10:23am ChrisB.: I can't wait for the next Omnivore Game Theory reissue. We're just getting to the good stuff.
	10:23am Listener Alexandra: Nice to be seen :-) Sleepy morning greetings from sunny San Diego!
	10:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: He must've been a genius if he ciphered the lyrics to this.
	10:27am Cecile: I love this song, but I also always think, "with your laundry list, you might want to keep looking"
	10:27am Joe McG: @Cecile: Exactly! Ha ha! No wonder he can't find one.
	10:28am βrian: I think cooking for love is a better strategy.
	10:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - not the strongest song or track - just Marriott's voice pushes it to the back wall of the theater...
	10:29am Cecile: That is the Bobby Womack song! It's reworked, but it is.
	10:30am Cecile: but they still don't make any sense.
	10:30am Cecile: am I a special snowflake? I think Odds and Sods might be my favorite Who album
	10:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - that's kewl Cecile.
	10:32am Cecile: I think it's because they aren't trying so hard.
	10:32am Kelly Jones: Joe, And yet ANOTHER morning saved from the black thoughts by JOE M. Cat home from vet, prognosis...life, at least for awhile longer.
	10:32am βrian: Pick the tomatoes in the morning … by the end of the day, lasagna happens.
	10:33am Polyus: Aw, what's wrong with kitty?
	10:34am Cecile: hahahaha
	10:34am Marcel M: OH SHIT! I love this song! I am a DJ I AM WHAT I PLAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!!!!
	10:35am Joe McG: Aw, Kelly, I'm very happy to hear that!
	10:35am Mike East: This song makes me wanna be a dj so I can play this song
	10:35am MD: jOE yOU aRE sO MUCH MORE!!!
	10:36am SeanG: Bowie/Belew/Eno!!
	10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @C'ec: It shows the eccentricity & humor & diversity of The Wh♂: There was tension between Petey as Grande Composer, Roger as Live Setlist maker (we are just a bitchen RawkBand - Moon here somewhat too), & Entwistle as wry dark humorist & dark horse (the George of the band) - Long Live Rock & Kitties.
	10:37am Joe McG: Aw, thanks, MD! Love that bad single edit, Marcel!
	10:37am MD: FMU DJ's are SPIRITE GUIDES!!!
	10:37am Cecile: oh, this is a great single.
	10:37am βrian: @SeanG: That's a rather scandalous assertion.
	10:38am Mike East: efd?
	10:38am Marcel M: Was that cut shorter, Joe?
	10:38am Marcel M: I had only heard the album version.
	10:38am Joe McG: @Marcel: Yeah, they cut out the "Time goes by, when you're having fun...break his heart..." part.
	10:39am MD: XCESS FAT....KA BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!
	10:39am MD: TRY READING!!!!
	10:39am Marcel M: @Joe: Ahhh... thats why it sounded so weird.. the best part is when that stops and it kicks back in!
	10:40am wendy del formaggio: Joe, cheese is great. I wrote about it yesterday. Brian: correct. Cows are within about a mile from me. Sheep are even closer! And I live in a town with ~12K residents. I like where I live.
	10:41am MD: this set is turning out....EPIC!!!!
	10:41am Joe McG: Share a link, Wendy, and everyone can read it!
	10:41am wendy del formaggio: Time for me to sign off. Gotta go interview someone for a food article. Have a lovely day, everyone!
	10:42am Cecile: you too, Wendy!!!
	10:43am MD: I need to say it again....EPIIIIIIIIIK!!!!!!
	10:44am Joe McG: @MD: Ha ha ha! I wish I'd brought an Epic 45 today!
	10:44am Parq: Aw gee, I missed the Cosmopolitans! Backed with "Wild Moose Party", I note, a viral kitty thing before there were such things.
	10:46am Nick: Wow, Thanks for that! I last heard that song on WLIR in 1980.
	10:48am Joe McG: Cool, Nick, glad you liked it!
	10:48am KP: Sure this is not Tammy Faye Starlight?
	10:49am βrian: In Wisconsin all the cows are in big industrial barns, never seeing the light of day, to say nothing of fresh grass.
	10:53am Cecile: northern Wisconsin I've seen lots of cows
	10:55am melinda: I saw some pretty cows grazing in roadside fields in Wisconsin but that was about 22 years ago.
	10:55am Carmichael: Heya Joe and fans. Was that Scott Miller from Game Theory back there? RIP, Scott. I used to play with those guys sometimes in college.
	10:56am Joe McG: @Carm: A-yup! What band were you in, Carm?
	10:56am melinda: Is Wendy in VT? More Jerseys there. They're the prettiest.
	10:57am Cecile: yes!
	10:57am Tusalava: BERTHA!
	10:58am Cecile: I think Bertha should show up in the Star Wars reboot
	10:59am Cecile: "I'll sock it to you Vadie!"
	10:59am Stevel: Too bad this came out before Jabba the Hut made the scene. Such potential there. "Intergalactic space age things." Oh to be the writer of those pearls.
	11:00am Joe McG: Ha ha ha!
	11:00am Stevel: Cecile nails it.
	11:01am Parq: Yes, I was going to thumbs-up Cile's take, too.
	11:01am Cecile: Someone needs to make that into a velvet painting. Bertha Butt and Darth Vader on a Saturday Night Fever dance floor.
	11:01am Carmichael: Joe, I was in a lot of local bands you probably never heard of. The big hitters in those days were Game Theory and the Spydells.
	11:02am Polyus: @Cecile - Ha!
	11:02am Cecile: JAZZ HANDS
	11:02am Tusalava: Epic.
	11:02am Carmichael: Or playing cards with dogs.
	11:03am Polyus: I remember someone (Ken?) playing JCB's 'Caveman' 45 at 33 rpm, which made it even funnier.
	11:04am thedunkel: Velvet Hammer - that's awesome
	11:07am Cecile: dean? where are you? or the wood-elf?
	11:08am Dean: Present.
	11:10am Ken From Hyde Park: Wood-elf was around earlier this morning.
	11:11am Cecile: what do you know about harvest-era pop?
	11:12am Rick from SC: Joe, I have a Spontaneous Combustion album. Haven't listened to it in ages.It has a cool comic book like cover
	11:12am Cecile: thanks, rick!
	11:12am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Was DJ from Lodger? I started singing Yassassin for no reason the other day.
	11:12am Mark R: Looked up Spontaneous Combustion on a site called progarchive. com. Tony Brock, drums; Gary Margretts, guitar and vocals; Tristian Margretts, bass and vocals. Their first album was produced by Greg Lake. The consensus seems to be that they were a psychedelic band that started recording just exactly when psychedelic rock went out of fashion in the early 70s. Poor bastards.
	11:15am Dean: At the moment, I can't even think of a band that qualifies, that is, not unless I cheat and check the playlist. Pink Floyd? Naw. Aptly, Barclay James Harvest had early releases on Harvest. For a second, I thought, "Pilot?" Nope, EMI.
	11:16am pierre: German folk rock, than there gotta to be some "Witthüser & Westrupp" ?
	11:16am pierre: German folk rock, than there gotta to be some "Witthüser & Westrupp" ?
	11:16am pierre: (sorry for the repetition)
	11:17am Mark R: Actually, Dean, I think Pink Floyd did record for Harvest.
	11:17am melinda: I like German folk rock so far. Great idea.
	11:18am Dean: They did, Mark R, but are they "pop"? "Money," yeah, but the earlier stuff?
	11:19am Joe McG: @pierre: I think there will be!
	11:19am Carmichael: Yes, Ummagumma. Also Edgar Broughton, Deep Purple ( I think 2 albums) and Kevin Ayers.
	11:19am KP: Nice Electric Sitar!
	11:20am Brian in UK: Looking forward to the break and our esteemed DJs pronounciations!!!
	11:20am pierre: Grand Joe ! I love german folk.
	11:22am melinda: Most sitar in folk rock sounds good to me but now and then I hear a passage that reminds me of Spinal Tap. Which isn't bad, just funny.
	11:23am Brian in UK: I am getting dwarfs dancing round a minature Stonehenge. Yes, I know it is unfair and mean.
	11:23am Cecile: pentanguläre
	11:24am Kees: Kraut und Rüben (WDR) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL88F73F844755E67C German documentary on 'krautrock' & more, cut up in many parts. Bröselmaschine are in there somewhere.
	11:24am Joe McG: Any German-speakers who want to contribute translations on the playlist please feel free!
	11:24am Mark R: Oh I see what your question was Dean. According to wikipedia (an impeccable source, I know), Harvest was created by EMI to release progressive rock and compete with labels like Decca's Deram imprint, which you probably remember had the Moody Blues. In the US they were distributed by Capitol. By the end of the 70s, they had switched to more New Wave-type acts like Wire, Thomas Dolby and Duran Duran. Sounds like they never produced the kind of revenue their corporate parents were hoping for.
	11:24am maja: Big smile and big pounding of my heart over here. For you Mr DJ and the rest of you over there
	11:24am Dean: There's quite a medieval flavor to these German folk tunes, "La Rotta" being, precisely, a medieval dance melody. Fans of this would adore recordings of Troubadour and Trouvere songs performed by Rene Clemencic's ensemble. Also their survey of songs from the Carmina Burana.
	11:25am Dean: How did I not think of Wire?!
	11:25am Kees: "The seven arch angels are bringing us spliffs,,,"
	11:26am Polyus: This is excellent, Joe. Which probably says something about my advancing age.
	11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wire on 'Floyd's label'. Hm.
	11:28am Mick: This stuff is so much fun! Once again, Joe saves Thursday.
	11:28am Joe McG: My heart also pounds, maja!
	11:29am Cecile: Wire were the most prog of the punk groups.
	11:29am Kees: Orienta On the search of a new way we are knocking on heavens door a man named Petrus opened very gently and he asked: "Are you the guys, that should come, and bring us the shit?" we scratch out, all we knew, even us and we enter, into the eternal spring we see the heavenly host with their eternal joints, sitting on their clouds and their singing rised inexorable in the hands of the sun the seven archangel bringin' us our eternal joints and together we floating to the indeciduous love-meadow and we join in into the canticle of the angles on Lordid Drack http://psychedelic-jukebox.blogspot.nl/2008/09/1971-witthueser-westrupp-orienta.html
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'Der Fuchs' is indeed 'pentanguläre'...
	11:30am coelacanth: Good morning Joe and McNoisters
	11:30am Brian in UK: Was Mr Rotten a prog fan?
	11:31am Cecile: kees, cool. That's like a stoner version of Aphrodite's Child's 666
	11:31am Cecile: Mr. Rotten loved Can and King Crimson.
	11:32am Kees: And Van Der Graaf Generator
	11:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 666 zackly. - & Lydon sold acid @ Hawkwind shows.
	11:32am pierre: I have a massive soft spot for German Folk
	11:33am Dean: "Wire were the most prog of the punk groups." Particularly by 1979's "154." Only just occurred to me that "Pink Flag" might have been a nod to the other Pink Fl---. Gilbert and Lewis's Dome and other projects continued exploration of the prog direction.
	11:33am Greg from ZONE 5: The post-Single File set is like a box of chocolates...
	11:34am northguineahills: Even though I've heard most of these Deutsch groups, I haven't heard these individual tracks. Frickin' awesome!
	11:34am Dean: Rotten's favorite record was "Tales from Topographic Council Tenancies."
	11:35am βrian: @Dean: Thanks for the Rene Clemencic tip. Gonna order some Troubadour music.
	11:36am Kees: Bröselmaschine featured among all the other big names of the time http://www.ebay.at/itm/SOUNDS-Nr-38-April1972-CREAM-Jack-Bruce-KRAAN-CAN-Broeselmaschine-John-McLaughlin-/231658147200?clk_rvr_id=890549569598&rmvSB=true
	11:37am coelacanth: maja- very,VERY fine art work there!
	11:38am Brian in UK: Chris Squire passed away the other month. I saw Yes in 1969 just after their first album was released. Jon Anderson was scat singing with Jon Hendricks on a couple of numbers. Really.
	11:39am Dean: @βrian: Super! For a later repertoire, try this amazing solo flute record by Clemencic: http://www.discogs.com/Ren%C3%A9-Clemencic-Clemencic-Et-Ses-Fl%C3%BBtes/release/1397438
	11:41am Cecile: really interesting and enlightening set.
	11:42am Cecile: this could be a cool premium
	11:42am maja: coelacanth! Thank you!
	11:43am Dean: Oh mein Gott! This Hölderlin was a staple back in the day.
	11:43am Brian in UK: I keep hearing the beginnings of songs that I think I know that change to something else.
	11:45am chris: danke fur dis fine set dis morgen, Joe! yodel!
	11:45am Kees: a more recent band Ostzonensuppenwürfelmachenkrebs (OZSWMK) - Die Pest https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTRaiK4zwa4
	11:46am Dean: @Kees: Three times real fast?
	11:46am Joe McG: You bet, Chris! @Kees: Thanks for the links!
	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Only on FMU.
	11:49am Cecile: out on the streets for a living...
	11:49am βrian: Coming up in 10 minutes on the Drummer Stream: Busy Doing Nothing (avec charlie): wfmu.org...
	11:49am pierre: "caterpillars running free"… now THAT's folk
	11:50am V Priceless: haha...Black Diamond...
	11:50am Cecile: VP, hahahah
	11:51am markdavess: With all the German and the vibe over the last half hour or something I was reminded of Hans Eckhart Wenzel, a DDR and now German 'Liedermacher', or maybe 'bard' who a friend played for me in Leipzig not long after reunification. 'Stirbt Mit Mir Ein Stück - Liebeslieder' (Die With Me a Little - Lovesongs', 1986, is the album I know, and his first. The song my friend loves was 'Verlassenes Bett', 'Deserted Bed' which you can find on YouTube. Maybe you know him, but if not maybe you'll like it. Listening now it's not as quite as 'archaic' sounding as I'd remembered, but close.
