	♥ 9:17am Lixiviated Life: = [e^(n ln x)] [n/x] = x^n n/x = n x^(n-1)
	9:18am Tome: HI Joe glad you're spinning makes Monday morning so nice !<>!
	♥ 9:20am Joe McG: Shucks, thanks, Tome. We're starting out with a bit of an electronic feel today, but we'll go other places.

	🎸 ♥ 9:23am The Oscar: Mornin'! This Numan track will always remind me of the incredible clip from Urgh! where he's tooling around the stage in a little cart. May need to rewatch that soon.
	🎸 ♥ 9:23am Threemoons: GARY NUMAN
	♥ 9:23am Baja Joe: Hidey Ho Joe and all
	🎸 ♥ 9:24am p20: Lix: that looks like d/dx xⁿ
	🎸 ♥ 9:24am Threemoons: Can we please get some obscure deep cut Bowie up in here?
	♥ 9:24am coco: Morning with Gary Newman....always nice
	🎸 ♥ 9:24am Guido from Cologne: I think that version of In The Park was on a Virgin records comp. entitled "Machines", dedicated to synth driven new wave from 1978.
	🎸 ♥ 9:25am p20: Lix: but we're just supposed to add - where did the exponential and derivative come from?
	♥ 9:25am David (in London): Hey p20.
	🎸 ♥ 9:25am p20: yo David. happy Monday!
	🎸 ♥ 9:25am Handy Haversack: Turns out even spreading peanut butter on apple slices is more fun with Gary Numan!
	9:26am annie: sorry i'm late!!
	🎸 ♥ 9:26am Irene Trudel: Good morning all! I always liked that Gary Numan track. Nice and dark.
	🎸 ♥ 9:26am p20: "Differentiate X to the Nth power"? That's a different band
	🎸 9:27am holland oats: synth wheeze greetings
	9:28am testingwithfire@protonmail.com: Good day Joe and all from Chile! good to hear Gary Numan this morning.
	🎸 ♥ 9:29am Ken From Hyde Park: So ... how's Dyngus Day going for everyone?
	🎸 ♥ 9:30am Hughie Considine: Loving all the bleep bloops on a morning where some clarity is needed.
	♥ 9:31am fred: @p20: If Add N to X recorded In C, would it be X+=N?
	9:31am Bend Sinister: I keep playing this on repeat from the CD, it is too catchy. (Had a battered 12" until recently)
	🎸 ♥ 9:32am p20: @fred: that's brilliant!
	♥ 9:34am duke: Hello Joe and surface noise surfers
	🎸 ♥ 9:34am p20: @KFHP: I had to look up Dyngus Day. Then I splashed my (very patient) wife in the face with some drops of water. She called me a dingus. The cat also got splashed - she was less amused.
	♥ 9:34am David (in London): Oh dear Lord, this is one of my absolute favourites. Foxx is awesome on this.
	♥ 9:38am Lixiviated Life: p20 @ 9:25 but it looks so elegant
	🎸 ♥ 9:39am Ken From Hyde Park: I'm not so sure the schools want parents solving math homework on the WFMU accu, though.
	9:40am Bill W: Good morning, McG and SNoisers.
	🎸 ♥ 9:42am Hughie Considine: Aw...this one is such a gem. Some of these Blue Nile tracks were designed to test audio equipment.
	♥ 9:42am Asheville Jon: thank you Joe for everything you do at and for WFMU!
	♥ 9:42am Buckaroo: This set has been AMAZING. Joe's on fire this morning.
	9:44am MplsCoco: Good Morning Joe and others!!! ♥️
	9:45am Naila: Thank you Joe for everything. SThanks grateful to you and to WFMU. Listening in the garden with my 1 year old son on a lovely sunny day in the UK.
	🎸 ♥ 9:46am Webhamster Henry: Yip yip yip yip, Noise surfacers!
	9:47am Gene: I have always enjoyed that Blue Nile album. Thanks from sunny Wiesbaden, Germany
	🎸 ♥ 9:48am Handy Haversack: I am enjoying myself.
	🎸 ♥ 9:48am p20: @Lix: yeah, any excuse to throw in some calculus references is fun
	♥ 9:48am ParUbi: Good morning Joe, hey everyone
	🎸 ♥ 9:49am pantz: @Joe are you sure you aren't getting payola from "Big Electronica Music" to play these sets?
	♥ 9:49am common: agreed, joe. blue nile always makes me sad.
	🎸 ♥ 9:49am Handy Haversack: Hey, ParUbi!
	9:49am P-90: soulful and forlorn
	♥ 9:50am David (in London): Hello ParUbi
	🎸 ♥ 9:51am Hughie Considine: Yes, that Three into One is the one to have!
	♥ 9:52am David (in London): That sax is truly awesome. It was played by CC Smith, who was from Gloria Munid, probably the first ever Goth band. Though that does them a disservice really.
	🎸 ♥ 9:53am Mark Hurst: "Sad Technology" - lots of resonance
	9:54am sphere: Often the pioneers get short shrift and rarely get credit.
	9:56am P-90: Hopefully “very repulsive “ is what they were going for
	9:56am happymaan: I like hearing you talk Joe!
	🎸 ♥ 9:57am Handy Haversack: "Sad Technology": This week on Techtonic, @Mark.
	🎸 ♥ 9:57am Hughie Considine: Once you start down the Laine, you'll find your way, @Joe!
	9:58am Brendan: @Joe, nice back announce. I just tuned in on the last track , but feel like I caught the set, or at least learned something new.
	🎸 ♥ 9:58am Mark Hurst: @Handy you've got it - then, add in some hope from people (not tech) and you've got tonight's show. Also here: hearing Joe's voice brings hope! Overpowers the tech making us sad.
	9:59am Crei6hton: Morning
	🎸 ♥ 10:00am Handy Haversack: Love won the card in Clay's Monday Morning Races today, @Mark. WFMU: Humans bringing hope to humans.
	🎸 ♥ 10:01am Tim 07030: Good morning Joe! I hear you on Ronnie, I listened to 'Evolution' about 8 times in a row a couple of weeks ago.
	🎸 ♥ 10:04am Stanley: I'm a big Rod fan, me. Have been since I was a nipper. Thanks for this.
	🎸 ♥ 10:07am LastWhiteRhino: Holy Moly ,this is a great tune.
	🎸 ♥ 10:08am Handy Haversack: I'm editing an index for a book on American right-wing violent orgs. Even the index is incredibly depressing. Surface Noise is keeping me above the surface, Joe!
	♥ 10:08am Joe McG: @LWR: It bears a suspicious resemblance to "We want the funk / Give us the funk"!
	🎸 ♥ 10:09am LastWhiteRhino: @Joe: You may be onto something there.
	🎸 ♥ 10:10am Stanley: David - you know Gloria Mundi? More Art Skool punk, to me. Used to hang out at their rehersals in Butlers Wharf, back in ye days. Fight Back Fight Back
	🎸 ♥ 10:10am Stanley: Hi Rhino, nice to see you at the waterhole, today
	🎸 ♥ 10:12am Hughie Considine: @Handy, I too am editing: an 800-page novel about five generations of a family. It's just about crushing me.
	🎸 ♥ 10:13am Handy Haversack: @Hughie: I'd offer to trade, but I'm already in the p's. The end is in sight!
	♥ 10:14am acid casualty: O, I missed 'down in the park' luv that 1, remember it from the 'times square' soundtrack.
	🎸 ♥ 10:14am Hughie Considine: You must forge on then, @Handy. Hey, at least we're on the clock.
	🎸 ♥ 10:14am Handy Haversack: Very true, @Hughie.
	10:16am Listener Alexandra: Good morning from work, Joe :-)
	10:16am Mike & Dusty: Good morning Surfactants. Joe, this is the loudest I’ve ever had your show on.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18am Marley P. Dogg: Yes!!!! I love this Black Market Brass album! It’s so good - something halfway between antibalas and Budos band
	🎸 ♥ 10:20am p20: We're enjoying this Black Market Brass with morning coffee & toast
	♥ 10:20am Joe McG: Hey Alex! Hey Mike & Dusty, this is a good one to crank up. Hey to everybody who said howdy! Sorry I'm not able to thank you all personally for chipping in as you chip.
	♥ 10:20am David (in London): Stanley - This string of 'coincidences' is getting spooky. I love GM, but they seem to be largely forgotten these days sadly. 'I Individual' is such a great album.
	🎸 ♥ 10:21am p20: Sic transit
	🎸 ♥ 10:21am Brian in UK: Stanley/David, think you better meet up t Cafe Oto when it reopens.
	♥ 10:25am Nulsh: That was freaky when you chaps all realised you had been at the same Grammar School yesterday!
	🎸 ♥ 10:25am Stanley: Ah, Cafe Oto (and accompanied Turkish nosh-up) is like a dream at the moment. When this shit is over, the koftes are on me. Just a thought Brian, Cafe Oto = Cafe Ottoman?
	🎸 ♥ 10:26am LastWhiteRhino: Hello Stanley.
	🎸 ♥ 10:27am zivilars: already excited for today's Single File – and always amazed how half an hour is over so quickly
	♥ 10:28am David (in London): Stanley, Brian, Nulsh - For sure we need a collective Turkish / OTO night when this dismal crap is over. Stanley's getting the food, and since I'm a member at OTO the gig tickets are on me.
	🎸 ♥ 10:28am Stanley: Nulsh - it was wierd but a lot of fun. Even stranger is that Kevin-san has been in New Jersey and a WFMU listener since the eighties. I blame Howard Jones.
	♥ 10:28am Nulsh: David, that sounds bloody marvellous!
	🎸 ♥ 10:29am Stanley: Brian - you get the beers in?
	♥ 10:30am David (in London): Stanley, I still have my old RGS tie, so a WMFU t-shirt and an RGS tie will be the sartorial order of the day..!
	♥ 10:31am common: every picture tells a story
	♥ 10:31am jake6573: every picture tells a story
	🎸 ♥ 10:32am Stanley: David - one of my acts of rebellion at school was to pick out the yellow threads in my tie to get a 'punk' tie.
	♥ 10:33am Joe McG: Thanks, guys, I was having a brain freeze.
	10:33am Israel T: Morning Joe, morning all. Slept in! Glad not to miss single file.
	🎸 ♥ 10:33am zivilars: Single File – yes, sir!
	♥ 10:36am David (in London): And wear it the wrong way round to get a skinny tie?
	♥ 10:36am βrian: 26 chalk marks on the cell wall. Good morning.
	10:36am Mr. Palchepo.: Bernard Purdie on that last one maybe?
	🎸 ♥ 10:39am pantz: Brain Freeze = Zombie Dessert
	♥ 10:41am Nulsh: Top bass playin'!
	♥ 10:42am Joe McG: @Nulsh: I love those goofy bass runs, kind of a preview of how bonkers it's going to get.
	🎸 ♥ 10:42am Tim 07030: Last time I saw Dylan he did Autumn Leaves. Didn't really sound like that.
	♥ 10:43am Joe McG: @Tim: Ha ha
	10:43am Mike & Dusty: Keely gave me a great interview in maybe 2005 for Time Out NY, she was so so great and very generous with her stories of the era. Saw her in Vegas in ’94 with Sam Butera leading the band, too.
	10:43am Crudbringer: Morning JMG, morning everyone.
	🎸 ♥ 10:44am Guido from Cologne: Is Roge McGuinn playing the 12-string himself on this?
	10:45am hunkered oats: I was wondering if this was a wrecking crew track
	♥ 10:46am Joe McG: @Guido: Sounds like him to me!
	🎸 ♥ 10:48am Handy Haversack: Hey, Crudbringer.
	10:49am Christy: Thanks for a beautiful show this morning. Balm.
	🎸 ♥ 10:49am Handy Haversack: This is super, this Goldebriars.
	♥ 10:50am David (in London): Mm, I second that, The Goldebriars were lovely.
	♥ 10:50am Joe McG: Glad you're enjoying, Christy, Handy. and David. Hope this Snail doesn't torpedo your good feeling!
	10:52am johnk77: Is this the snail from santa cruz?
	♥ 10:52am βrian: The final snail.
	♥ 10:53am Joe McG: @johnk77: I'm fascinated by the idea that there is more than one band named Snail!
	🎸 ♥ 10:55am Handy Haversack: Feelings still riding high on the surface, @Joe ... though, apparently it has suddenly become exercise time ... and a chill filled the room ...
	10:55am Xtsayre: haha, no the Snail is fine too. It's all in the mix. Thanks, I know what an effort this is now.
	🎸 ♥ 10:56am p20: Never heard of Bob Segarini. Probably for a good reason. His first band was "The Wackers"? Seriously?
	♥ 10:57am mndave: That Segarini song was oozing Steve Miller Band, to these ears..
	10:57am gespatcho: coconutta on my whattta?
	🎸 ♥ 10:58am Handy Haversack: Both kinds of music: Country and tiki.
	10:59am SeanG: hell yeah dude!! I love this song
	10:59am Snoochienucci: aloha! a classic "great set!" is in order for the great Joe McG!
	10:59am SeanG: TURN IT UP :-D
	♥ 10:59am nickybones: This is the best Springsteen song.
	🎸 ♥ 11:00am p20: @JoeMcG: Discogs shows 17 (!) bands named Snail www.discogs.com...
	11:00am Bro: BRO!!
	11:00am disantlor: hah wow someone really internalized born in the usa
	♥ 11:00am Joe McG: @p20: [incredulous look]
	🎸 ♥ 11:00am Handy Haversack: I think we are now all beginning to understand the true power of the Dark Side!
	♥ 11:01am David (in London): Hey Snoochie. p20 - I feel a great compilation coming on...
	♥ 11:01am Roberto: She's the One on the Dark Side.
	11:01am justin: What movie was this in? I can't remember, but I remember it being in one.
	11:01am Crudbringer: Eddie & the Cruisers
	11:01am Listener Alexandra: Streets of Fire, I think
	11:02am Mick: Shoot, now I have to figure out where to stream Eddie and the Cruisers
	🎸 ♥ 11:02am pantz: Wasn't Willem Defoe the villain in that movie?
	11:02am Snoochienucci: hey DIL! hope you had a good weekend! same to you Handyman!
	11:02am justin: Eddie and the Cruisers! Right.
	11:03am Listener Alexandra: @Pantz yes; I was wrong about the song, though
	♥ 11:03am David (in London): Snoochie - It's Day #4 of a four-day Easter Bank Holiday weekend, but given everything, it's been hard to notice. Still, yes, all well thanks. You?
	🎸 ♥ 11:03am p20: A lot of these listings on discogs are just bedroom artists who released a self-recorded CD. But a few of these "snails" look like real bands: Snail(4) from Santa Cruz, Snail(5) from Seattle and Snail(17) from Corsica.
	11:03am Southside Johnny: hey what about ME?
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am steveo: hm wow i don't think i ever knew that wasn't springsteen
	11:04am Snoochienucci: @DIL yup same old in the new age, all is good as can be!
	11:04am SeanG: reminded me of that song "Light of Day"---from that Michael J. Fox movie
	♥ 11:04am βrian: Snails want garlic.
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am p20: That Springsteen sound-alike set could go very long! After that you could do bands influenced by the Velvet Underground.
	11:04am Tony Banana Chow Mein: I always thought "dark side" was ghost written by Springsteen. Is that not true?
	♥ 11:04am David (in London): p20 - And don't forget my newly-formed outfit, 'Snail 18'.
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am Handy Haversack: I have in no way recovered from Becky's John Prine tribute.
	🎸 ♥ 11:05am p20: Bob Segarini, not to be confused with Bob Seger
	🎸 ♥ 11:05am p20: Wacker Drive is in CHICAGO
	♥ 11:05am βrian: Chicago
	11:05am Baja Joe: Saw Beaver Brown at The Bottom Line, who remembers when? They and the Bottom Line are no longer around. Or are they?
	11:05am ian: so tight it makes you forget that it's not easy
	🎸 ♥ 11:06am waters7: Wacker Drive is Chicago--as my esteemed fellow listeners wrote.
	🎸 ♥ 11:06am Tim 07030: at the time, John Cafferty and the BB Band was the biggest thing to come out of Rhode Island since the Cowsills.
	🎸 ♥ 11:06am Ken From Hyde Park: Haha ... where do you send the royalty check for the Snail song?
	11:08am Miles: I missed single file!
	♥ 11:09am Nulsh: There's a nice cover of Everybody has been Burned by Thin White Rope. One of my favourite bands that a lot of people seem to despise!
	🎸 ♥ 11:09am Uncle Michael: I've spent one on one time with Croz and I really like the guy.
	🎸 ♥ 11:09am Uncle Michael: Thin White Rope was great!
	🎸 ♥ 11:10am waters7: David Crosby doc: I liked him a long time ago. At the beginning of the doc, I thought, oh, he's okay, he's kind of good. Then as it progressed, I began to loathe him. there must be a reason his friends dislike him.
	11:10am Rick A.: Bob Segarini appears on the soundtrack to Vanishing Point, a great, very Joe McGasko type of soundtrack. It also features a young Kim Carnes and Delaney and Bonnie.
	11:10am Mike & Dusty: aw, Thin White Rope were good! Were they despised, or just underappreciated?
	🎸 ♥ 11:10am Hughie Considine: The CSNY parody in "Lemmings" was brilliant, and the singer who voiced Croz was totally brilliant.
	♥ 11:11am Roberto: Silicone Valley lol
	♥ 11:12am Nulsh: Thin White Rope were underappreciated in my opinion, but I've some across people, some of them friends, who really don't like them.
	♥ 11:12am βrian: The lubricous goings-on of Silicone Valley.
	🎸 ♥ 11:12am p20: "You're in funky denim wonderland / You and David Crosby and a bloke with no hand" - Robyn Hitchcock, "1974"
	11:13am Mike & Dusty: Crosby is disliked for being mean to Gene Clark.
	🎸 ♥ 11:13am Brian in UK: Stanley/David been in the garden. Yes, the Milky Bars are on me. Would love to have an Ottoman banquet in the Topkapi. That would be sublime. Hey why not meet up in Istanbul.
	11:14am Fernando P: hi Joe! so glad to have you on the other side of the satellite. thank you so much! loved to start the week with The Knife.
	♥ 11:18am Joe McG: Thanks for saying hello, Fernando!
	11:19am TimBk: Hi Joe, Really love Elvis' version of Gentle on My Mind, in addition to Glenn Campbell's of course.
	🎸 ♥ 11:20am Handy Haversack: Oh god she's doubling the push-ups. We are dying, Aegypt, dying!
	🎸 ♥ 11:21am waters7: Love this segue! My friend, Lloyd's father (whose birthday is today and grew up in Port Arthur, Texas) always called TW: Tammy Whyyyyynet! Because she always was whining (in his dad's opinion).
	11:21am Reno D: Dear Joe, I’ve been waiting for years, decades, for somebody to appreciate the Tammy version of Gentle on My Mind. My question has always been, did Mr Hartford write her version especially for Tammy?
	11:23am Snoochienucci: as always, loving the country! Helps the Monday hangover which is a result of singing country tunes with my brother last night! Just keep it rollin
	♥ 11:23am Joe McG: @Reno D: I wish I knew! Let me know if you find out.
	🎸 ♥ 11:23am JG: Thanks joe the john hartford demo makes 20 gentle on my minds in my amazon prime gentle on my mind playlist
	11:25am mrmikestandsir: if you play one by Porter I guess you got to play one by Dolly. Which is just perfect, thanks Joe.
	♥ 11:26am Joe McG: @JG: Can never go wrong with that tune. @mrmike: She wrote both tunes!
	🎸 ♥ 11:26am p20: @RenoD: I'm not sure but after reading en.wikipedia.org... I don't think it was written for Tammy. A lot of other people recorded it before her - Glen Campbell, Dean Martin (!), Patti Page
	🎸 ♥ 11:27am p20: As well as John Harford himself who won a Grammy for it. Tammy's recording was a bit later
	11:27am Joe B: great show Joe!
	11:28am johnk77: @bajajoe the bottom line closed in 2004 reclaimed by landlord nyu
	♥ 11:28am Joe McG: Thanks, Joe! BTW, everybody, Joe is broadcasting live today. Hopefully I won't mess up getting him on the air!
	11:29am listener monica: <3
	11:30am Rick A.: The section in the Ken Burns documentary on George Jones and Tammy Wynette is wild and depressing. Their marriage ends with her saying that George cannot be happy and George repeatedly circling around their driveway in a zonked state of mind.
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am zivilars: In my dreams, there exists a duet album by Lee Hazlewood & Lee Marvin: "Lee & Lee" – that would be the ultimate subwoofer test record
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am p20: @RenoD: Oh, sorry for being so thick. Somehow didn't notice that Tammy's version has completly different lyrics. I was just listening to the sounds ....
	11:31am Henry: love Johnny's voice
	🎸 ♥ 11:31am Handy Haversack: We trust the Great Joe McGasko to get the People's Champ on the air! It's Joes all the way down!
	11:31am Toothgrinder Tom: @zivilars could Lee Marvin sing?
	🎸 ♥ 11:32am zivilars: @TT: You don't know the song "Wand'rin Star" from the movie "Paint Your Wagon"? You should listen to it, amazing deep singing voice!
	11:32am Rick A.: Can Lee Marvin sing? Three words: Paint Your Wagon!
	🎸 ♥ 11:33am zivilars: and takes about eight minutes or so until he finally kicks in ... ;)
	🎸 ♥ 11:33am JG: What a great show.
	11:33am johnk77: gov cuomo on msnbc lucky my tv has closed captioning:>
	11:35am Israel T: Fantastic set, Joe!
	♥ 11:36am Nate K.: Hi, Joe. Love this song.
	♥ 11:38am Greg from ZONE 5: Suddenly all those doomsday cults are making a lot of sense to me #coro-nado
	11:39am Reno D: @p20, Yeah, the “female” lyric of Gentle is as brilliantly conceived and rendered as the familiar one. I tried to use the Tammy version as the opening title music for American Fabulous in 1991 and Sony Music said Ms Wynette wasn’t interested. Well!
	11:40am testingwithfire: I ran to my phone to see who the owner of the beautiful voice was... that's how infrequently I hear Ronstadt's early work these days. Really need to watch that doc about her career.
	11:40am johnk77: currently in far western nc the same system was here last night caused death & destruction in tn, al, ms, la, ga i advise watching weather closely if u have a watch if u get a warning seek shelter
	🎸 ♥ 11:40am pantz: I heard wackos in the UK are burning down cell phone towers because they believe 5G is spreading Covid-19.
	🎸 ♥ 11:40am zivilars: anybody here already watched the recent Linda Ronstadt music documentary? Worth it?

	🎸 ♥ 11:42am officina: Another wonderful show Joe !
	11:42am Snoochienucci: I wanted to order this vinyl set, but it got terrible reviews online for pressing issues etc. Can anyone confirm?
	🎸 ♥ 11:43am JG: I have the vinyl set. I love it . havent had any issues
	11:43am Jim Price: @zivilars: i strongly recommend the Linda Ronstadt documentary. Unlike Mr. McGasko, i shed a few tears at the end.

	🎸 ♥ 11:48am zivilars: @MUW – I meant "MUW", of course, sorry
	🎸 ♥ 11:48am zivilars: MUWF, damn it
	11:48am Snoochienucci: @JG itll be my first vinyl of the lot too. Well unless you count the basement tapes, but i guess those arent "bootleg" who knows anymore lol. But yeah it would be awesome to get the whole series on vinyl. Ive been growing my "country" section alot recently though, so this one will fit in perfectly lol
	11:49am johnk77: @brendan best comment on interthingie today maximum respect;>
	♥ 11:49am David (in London): I've got a hankering to watch John Sayles' 'Lone Star' now for some Kris. That could be tonight's entertainment sorted out.

	🎸 ♥ 9:34am p20: @KFHP: I had to look up Dyngus Day. Then I splashed my (very patient) wife in the face with some drops of water. She called me a dingus. The cat also got splashed - she was less amused.

	🎸 ♥ 9:49am pantz: @Joe are you sure you aren't getting payola from "Big Electronica Music" to play these sets?
	♥ 9:49am common: agreed, joe. blue nile always makes me sad.
	🎸 ♥ 9:49am Handy Haversack: Hey, ParUbi!
	9:49am P-90: soulful and forlorn
	♥ 9:50am David (in London): Hello ParUbi
	🎸 ♥ 9:51am Hughie Considine: Yes, that Three into One is the one to have!
	♥ 9:52am David (in London): That sax is truly awesome. It was played by CC Smith, who was from Gloria Munid, probably the first ever Goth band. Though that does them a disservice really.
	🎸 ♥ 9:53am Mark Hurst: "Sad Technology" - lots of resonance
	9:54am sphere: Often the pioneers get short shrift and rarely get credit.
	9:56am P-90: Hopefully “very repulsive “ is what they were going for

	🎸 ♥ 9:58am Mark Hurst: @Handy you've got it - then, add in some hope from people (not tech) and you've got tonight's show. Also here: hearing Joe's voice brings hope! Overpowers the tech making us sad.
	9:59am Crei6hton: Morning
	🎸 ♥ 10:00am Handy Haversack: Love won the card in Clay's Monday Morning Races today, @Mark. WFMU: Humans bringing hope to humans.
	🎸 ♥ 10:01am Tim 07030: Good morning Joe! I hear you on Ronnie, I listened to 'Evolution' about 8 times in a row a couple of weeks ago.
	🎸 ♥ 10:04am Stanley: I'm a big Rod fan, me. Have been since I was a nipper. Thanks for this.
	🎸 ♥ 10:07am LastWhiteRhino: Holy Moly ,this is a great tune.
	🎸 ♥ 10:08am Handy Haversack: I'm editing an index for a book on American right-wing violent orgs. Even the index is incredibly depressing. Surface Noise is keeping me above the surface, Joe!
	♥ 10:08am Joe McG: @LWR: It bears a suspicious resemblance to "We want the funk / Give us the funk"!
	🎸 ♥ 10:09am LastWhiteRhino: @Joe: You may be onto something there.
	🎸 ♥ 10:10am Stanley: David - you know Gloria Mundi? More Art Skool punk, to me. Used to hang out at their rehersals in Butlers Wharf, back in ye days. Fight Back Fight Back
	🎸 ♥ 10:10am Stanley: Hi Rhino, nice to see you at the waterhole, today
	🎸 ♥ 10:12am Hughie Considine: @Handy, I too am editing: an 800-page novel about five generations of a family. It's just about crushing me.
	🎸 ♥ 10:13am Handy Haversack: @Hughie: I'd offer to trade, but I'm already in the p's. The end is in sight!
	♥ 10:14am acid casualty: O, I missed 'down in the park' luv that 1, remember it from the 'times square' soundtrack.
	🎸 ♥ 10:14am Hughie Considine: You must forge on then, @Handy. Hey, at least we're on the clock.
	🎸 ♥ 10:14am Handy Haversack: Very true, @Hughie.
	10:16am Listener Alexandra: Good morning from work, Joe :-)
	10:16am Mike & Dusty: Good morning Surfactants. Joe, this is the loudest I’ve ever had your show on.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18am Marley P. Dogg: Yes!!!! I love this Black Market Brass album! It’s so good - something halfway between antibalas and Budos band
	🎸 ♥ 10:20am p20: We're enjoying this Black Market Brass with morning coffee & toast
	♥ 10:20am Joe McG: Hey Alex! Hey Mike & Dusty, this is a good one to crank up. Hey to everybody who said howdy! Sorry I'm not able to thank you all personally for chipping in as you chip.
	♥ 10:20am David (in London): Stanley - This string of 'coincidences' is getting spooky. I love GM, but they seem to be largely forgotten these days sadly. 'I Individual' is such a great album.
	🎸 ♥ 10:21am p20: Sic transit
	🎸 ♥ 10:21am Brian in UK: Stanley/David, think you better meet up t Cafe Oto when it reopens.
	♥ 10:25am Nulsh: That was freaky when you chaps all realised you had been at the same Grammar School yesterday!
	🎸 ♥ 10:25am Stanley: Ah, Cafe Oto (and accompanied Turkish nosh-up) is like a dream at the moment. When this shit is over, the koftes are on me. Just a thought Brian, Cafe Oto = Cafe Ottoman?
	🎸 ♥ 10:26am LastWhiteRhino: Hello Stanley.
	🎸 ♥ 10:27am zivilars: already excited for today's Single File – and always amazed how half an hour is over so quickly
	♥ 10:28am David (in London): Stanley, Brian, Nulsh - For sure we need a collective Turkish / OTO night when this dismal crap is over. Stanley's getting the food, and since I'm a member at OTO the gig tickets are on me.
	🎸 ♥ 10:28am Stanley: Nulsh - it was wierd but a lot of fun. Even stranger is that Kevin-san has been in New Jersey and a WFMU listener since the eighties. I blame Howard Jones.
	♥ 10:28am Nulsh: David, that sounds bloody marvellous!
	🎸 ♥ 10:29am Stanley: Brian - you get the beers in?
	♥ 10:30am David (in London): Stanley, I still have my old RGS tie, so a WMFU t-shirt and an RGS tie will be the sartorial order of the day..!
	♥ 10:31am common: every picture tells a story
	♥ 10:31am jake6573: every picture tells a story
	🎸 ♥ 10:32am Stanley: David - one of my acts of rebellion at school was to pick out the yellow threads in my tie to get a 'punk' tie.
	♥ 10:33am Joe McG: Thanks, guys, I was having a brain freeze.
	10:33am Israel T: Morning Joe, morning all. Slept in! Glad not to miss single file.
	🎸 ♥ 10:33am zivilars: Single File – yes, sir!
	♥ 10:36am David (in London): And wear it the wrong way round to get a skinny tie?
	♥ 10:36am βrian: 26 chalk marks on the cell wall. Good morning.
	10:36am Mr. Palchepo.: Bernard Purdie on that last one maybe?
	🎸 ♥ 10:39am pantz: Brain Freeze = Zombie Dessert
	♥ 10:41am Nulsh: Top bass playin'!
	♥ 10:42am Joe McG: @Nulsh: I love those goofy bass runs, kind of a preview of how bonkers it's going to get.
	🎸 ♥ 10:42am Tim 07030: Last time I saw Dylan he did Autumn Leaves. Didn't really sound like that.
	♥ 10:43am Joe McG: @Tim: Ha ha
	10:43am Mike & Dusty: Keely gave me a great interview in maybe 2005 for Time Out NY, she was so so great and very generous with her stories of the era. Saw her in Vegas in ’94 with Sam Butera leading the band, too.
	10:43am Crudbringer: Morning JMG, morning everyone.
	🎸 ♥ 10:44am Guido from Cologne: Is Roge McGuinn playing the 12-string himself on this?
	10:45am hunkered oats: I was wondering if this was a wrecking crew track
	♥ 10:46am Joe McG: @Guido: Sounds like him to me!
	🎸 ♥ 10:48am Handy Haversack: Hey, Crudbringer.
	10:49am Christy: Thanks for a beautiful show this morning. Balm.
	🎸 ♥ 10:49am Handy Haversack: This is super, this Goldebriars.
	♥ 10:50am David (in London): Mm, I second that, The Goldebriars were lovely.
	♥ 10:50am Joe McG: Glad you're enjoying, Christy, Handy. and David. Hope this Snail doesn't torpedo your good feeling!
	10:52am johnk77: Is this the snail from santa cruz?
	♥ 10:52am βrian: The final snail.
	♥ 10:53am Joe McG: @johnk77: I'm fascinated by the idea that there is more than one band named Snail!
	🎸 ♥ 10:55am Handy Haversack: Feelings still riding high on the surface, @Joe ... though, apparently it has suddenly become exercise time ... and a chill filled the room ...
	10:55am Xtsayre: haha, no the Snail is fine too. It's all in the mix. Thanks, I know what an effort this is now.
	🎸 ♥ 10:56am p20: Never heard of Bob Segarini. Probably for a good reason. His first band was "The Wackers"? Seriously?
	♥ 10:57am mndave: That Segarini song was oozing Steve Miller Band, to these ears..
	10:57am gespatcho: coconutta on my whattta?
	🎸 ♥ 10:58am Handy Haversack: Both kinds of music: Country and tiki.
	10:59am SeanG: hell yeah dude!! I love this song
	10:59am Snoochienucci: aloha! a classic "great set!" is in order for the great Joe McG!
	10:59am SeanG: TURN IT UP :-D
	♥ 10:59am nickybones: This is the best Springsteen song.
	🎸 ♥ 11:00am p20: @JoeMcG: Discogs shows 17 (!) bands named Snail www.discogs.com...
	11:00am Bro: BRO!!
	11:00am disantlor: hah wow someone really internalized born in the usa
	♥ 11:00am Joe McG: @p20: [incredulous look]
	🎸 ♥ 11:00am Handy Haversack: I think we are now all beginning to understand the true power of the Dark Side!
	♥ 11:01am David (in London): Hey Snoochie. p20 - I feel a great compilation coming on...
	♥ 11:01am Roberto: She's the One on the Dark Side.
	11:01am justin: What movie was this in? I can't remember, but I remember it being in one.
	11:01am Crudbringer: Eddie & the Cruisers
	11:01am Listener Alexandra: Streets of Fire, I think
	11:02am Mick: Shoot, now I have to figure out where to stream Eddie and the Cruisers
	🎸 ♥ 11:02am pantz: Wasn't Willem Defoe the villain in that movie?
	11:02am Snoochienucci: hey DIL! hope you had a good weekend! same to you Handyman!
	11:02am justin: Eddie and the Cruisers! Right.
	11:03am Listener Alexandra: @Pantz yes; I was wrong about the song, though
	♥ 11:03am David (in London): Snoochie - It's Day #4 of a four-day Easter Bank Holiday weekend, but given everything, it's been hard to notice. Still, yes, all well thanks. You?
	🎸 ♥ 11:03am p20: A lot of these listings on discogs are just bedroom artists who released a self-recorded CD. But a few of these "snails" look like real bands: Snail(4) from Santa Cruz, Snail(5) from Seattle and Snail(17) from Corsica.
	11:03am Southside Johnny: hey what about ME?
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am steveo: hm wow i don't think i ever knew that wasn't springsteen
	11:04am Snoochienucci: @DIL yup same old in the new age, all is good as can be!
	11:04am SeanG: reminded me of that song "Light of Day"---from that Michael J. Fox movie
	♥ 11:04am βrian: Snails want garlic.
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am p20: That Springsteen sound-alike set could go very long! After that you could do bands influenced by the Velvet Underground.
	11:04am Tony Banana Chow Mein: I always thought "dark side" was ghost written by Springsteen. Is that not true?
	♥ 11:04am David (in London): p20 - And don't forget my newly-formed outfit, 'Snail 18'.
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am Handy Haversack: I have in no way recovered from Becky's John Prine tribute.
	🎸 ♥ 11:05am p20: Bob Segarini, not to be confused with Bob Seger
	🎸 ♥ 11:05am p20: Wacker Drive is in CHICAGO
	♥ 11:05am βrian: Chicago
	11:05am Baja Joe: Saw Beaver Brown at The Bottom Line, who remembers when? They and the Bottom Line are no longer around. Or are they?
	11:05am ian: so tight it makes you forget that it's not easy
	🎸 ♥ 11:06am waters7: Wacker Drive is Chicago--as my esteemed fellow listeners wrote.
	🎸 ♥ 11:06am Tim 07030: at the time, John Cafferty and the BB Band was the biggest thing to come out of Rhode Island since the Cowsills.
	🎸 ♥ 11:06am Ken From Hyde Park: Haha ... where do you send the royalty check for the Snail song?
	11:08am Miles: I missed single file!
	♥ 11:09am Nulsh: There's a nice cover of Everybody has been Burned by Thin White Rope. One of my favourite bands that a lot of people seem to despise!
	🎸 ♥ 11:09am Uncle Michael: I've spent one on one time with Croz and I really like the guy.
	🎸 ♥ 11:09am Uncle Michael: Thin White Rope was great!
	🎸 ♥ 11:10am waters7: David Crosby doc: I liked him a long time ago. At the beginning of the doc, I thought, oh, he's okay, he's kind of good. Then as it progressed, I began to loathe him. there must be a reason his friends dislike him.
	11:10am Rick A.: Bob Segarini appears on the soundtrack to Vanishing Point, a great, very Joe McGasko type of soundtrack. It also features a young Kim Carnes and Delaney and Bonnie.
	11:10am Mike & Dusty: aw, Thin White Rope were good! Were they despised, or just underappreciated?
	🎸 ♥ 11:10am Hughie Considine: The CSNY parody in "Lemmings" was brilliant, and the singer who voiced Croz was totally brilliant.
	♥ 11:11am Roberto: Silicone Valley lol
	♥ 11:12am Nulsh: Thin White Rope were underappreciated in my opinion, but I've some across people, some of them friends, who really don't like them.
	♥ 11:12am βrian: The lubricous goings-on of Silicone Valley.
	🎸 ♥ 11:12am p20: "You're in funky denim wonderland / You and David Crosby and a bloke with no hand" - Robyn Hitchcock, "1974"
	11:13am Mike & Dusty: Crosby is disliked for being mean to Gene Clark.
	🎸 ♥ 11:13am Brian in UK: Stanley/David been in the garden. Yes, the Milky Bars are on me. Would love to have an Ottoman banquet in the Topkapi. That would be sublime. Hey why not meet up in Istanbul.
	11:14am Fernando P: hi Joe! so glad to have you on the other side of the satellite. thank you so much! loved to start the week with The Knife.
	♥ 11:18am Joe McG: Thanks for saying hello, Fernando!
	11:19am TimBk: Hi Joe, Really love Elvis' version of Gentle on My Mind, in addition to Glenn Campbell's of course.
	🎸 ♥ 11:20am Handy Haversack: Oh god she's doubling the push-ups. We are dying, Aegypt, dying!
	🎸 ♥ 11:21am waters7: Love this segue! My friend, Lloyd's father (whose birthday is today and grew up in Port Arthur, Texas) always called TW: Tammy Whyyyyynet! Because she always was whining (in his dad's opinion).
	11:21am Reno D: Dear Joe, I’ve been waiting for years, decades, for somebody to appreciate the Tammy version of Gentle on My Mind. My question has always been, did Mr Hartford write her version especially for Tammy?
	11:23am Snoochienucci: as always, loving the country! Helps the Monday hangover which is a result of singing country tunes with my brother last night! Just keep it rollin
	♥ 11:23am Joe McG: @Reno D: I wish I knew! Let me know if you find out.
	🎸 ♥ 11:23am JG: Thanks joe the john hartford demo makes 20 gentle on my minds in my amazon prime gentle on my mind playlist
	11:25am mrmikestandsir: if you play one by Porter I guess you got to play one by Dolly. Which is just perfect, thanks Joe.
	♥ 11:26am Joe McG: @JG: Can never go wrong with that tune. @mrmike: She wrote both tunes!
	🎸 ♥ 11:26am p20: @RenoD: I'm not sure but after reading en.wikipedia.org... I don't think it was written for Tammy. A lot of other people recorded it before her - Glen Campbell, Dean Martin (!), Patti Page
	🎸 ♥ 11:27am p20: As well as John Harford himself who won a Grammy for it. Tammy's recording was a bit later
	11:27am Joe B: great show Joe!
	11:28am johnk77: @bajajoe the bottom line closed in 2004 reclaimed by landlord nyu
	♥ 11:28am Joe McG: Thanks, Joe! BTW, everybody, Joe is broadcasting live today. Hopefully I won't mess up getting him on the air!
	11:29am listener monica: <3
	11:30am Rick A.: The section in the Ken Burns documentary on George Jones and Tammy Wynette is wild and depressing. Their marriage ends with her saying that George cannot be happy and George repeatedly circling around their driveway in a zonked state of mind.
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am zivilars: In my dreams, there exists a duet album by Lee Hazlewood & Lee Marvin: "Lee & Lee" – that would be the ultimate subwoofer test record
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am p20: @RenoD: Oh, sorry for being so thick. Somehow didn't notice that Tammy's version has completly different lyrics. I was just listening to the sounds ....
	11:31am Henry: love Johnny's voice
	🎸 ♥ 11:31am Handy Haversack: We trust the Great Joe McGasko to get the People's Champ on the air! It's Joes all the way down!
	11:31am Toothgrinder Tom: @zivilars could Lee Marvin sing?
	🎸 ♥ 11:32am zivilars: @TT: You don't know the song "Wand'rin Star" from the movie "Paint Your Wagon"? You should listen to it, amazing deep singing voice!
	11:32am Rick A.: Can Lee Marvin sing? Three words: Paint Your Wagon!
	🎸 ♥ 11:33am zivilars: and takes about eight minutes or so until he finally kicks in ... ;)
	🎸 ♥ 11:33am JG: What a great show.
	11:33am johnk77: gov cuomo on msnbc lucky my tv has closed captioning:>
	11:35am Israel T: Fantastic set, Joe!
	♥ 11:36am Nate K.: Hi, Joe. Love this song.
	♥ 11:38am Greg from ZONE 5: Suddenly all those doomsday cults are making a lot of sense to me #coro-nado
	11:39am Reno D: @p20, Yeah, the “female” lyric of Gentle is as brilliantly conceived and rendered as the familiar one. I tried to use the Tammy version as the opening title music for American Fabulous in 1991 and Sony Music said Ms Wynette wasn’t interested. Well!
	11:40am testingwithfire: I ran to my phone to see who the owner of the beautiful voice was... that's how infrequently I hear Ronstadt's early work these days. Really need to watch that doc about her career.
	11:40am johnk77: currently in far western nc the same system was here last night caused death & destruction in tn, al, ms, la, ga i advise watching weather closely if u have a watch if u get a warning seek shelter
	🎸 ♥ 11:40am pantz: I heard wackos in the UK are burning down cell phone towers because they believe 5G is spreading Covid-19.
	🎸 ♥ 11:40am zivilars: anybody here already watched the recent Linda Ronstadt music documentary? Worth it?
	🎸 ♥ 11:40am Brian in UK: Joe, been dipping in and out today. Great sounds as ever.
	11:41am Tom from Boonton: first Dolly, now Linda! thank you Joe, thank you FMU
	11:41am testingwithfire: anyone up for a Ronstadt doc watch party?
	11:41am Snoochienucci: nice! loving this
	🎸 ♥ 11:42am officina: Another wonderful show Joe !
	11:42am Snoochienucci: I wanted to order this vinyl set, but it got terrible reviews online for pressing issues etc. Can anyone confirm?
	🎸 ♥ 11:43am JG: I have the vinyl set. I love it . havent had any issues
	11:43am Jim Price: @zivilars: i strongly recommend the Linda Ronstadt documentary. Unlike Mr. McGasko, i shed a few tears at the end.
	11:43am Snoochienucci: @JG sweet, that was about alll i needed to hear to pull the trigger haha. Thank you!
	11:43am johnk77: thanks for wonderful show selecter fulfilling my dream of more country/rock on freeform station of this nation
	🎸 ♥ 11:44am zivilars: @Jim: Thanks, will definitely watch it – even if it left Joe McGasko with his heart of stone cold ... ;)
	11:45am MUWFinMASS: anyone know if this show is live... or a rebroadcast?
	🎸 ♥ 11:45am zivilars: @MUF: this is live, as far as I know
	🎸 ♥ 11:46am zivilars: Joe is proud member of the WFMU skeleton crew
	🎸 ♥ 11:46am JG: @snoochie, Travelin through was first of the bootlegs i bought on vinyl. Got a bunch of the others on cd, and wish i'd gone the viny rout earlier on
	11:46am Brendan: Gravelding on my windshield.
	🎸 ♥ 11:47am zivilars: man, this one and "Sunday Morning Comin' Down" are such great songs! Thanks for playing!
	🎸 ♥ 11:47am zivilars: always calms me down
	11:47am MUWFinMASS: thx z
	11:47am Bill W: I remember watching the Cash TV show as a kid... the DVD box is worth purchasing.
	🎸 ♥ 11:48am zivilars: @MUW – I meant "MUW", of course, sorry
	🎸 ♥ 11:48am zivilars: MUWF, damn it
	11:48am Snoochienucci: @JG itll be my first vinyl of the lot too. Well unless you count the basement tapes, but i guess those arent "bootleg" who knows anymore lol. But yeah it would be awesome to get the whole series on vinyl. Ive been growing my "country" section alot recently though, so this one will fit in perfectly lol
	11:49am johnk77: @brendan best comment on interthingie today maximum respect;>
	♥ 11:49am David (in London): I've got a hankering to watch John Sayles' 'Lone Star' now for some Kris. That could be tonight's entertainment sorted out.
	🎸 ♥ 11:49am Andrew_in_WI: Sunday Morning Coming Down is the only better Kristofferson song
	11:51am johnk77: certain pbs stations have been showing a highwaymen doc that has quality kris
	🎸 ♥ 11:53am Handy Haversack: This is really great, "Biloxi." Never heard this before.

	♥ 11:54am Joe McG: Thanks for listening to the show, everyone! Do stay tuned for Three Chord Monte with Joe Belock, coming to you LIVE from somewhere in Jersey City. It's been a pleasure to be with you, as always.
