	♥ 9:07pm mariano: Hey everyone!
	♥ 9:08pm Fuzzy: Howdy!
	9:11pm otto: Hot Dog!
	♥ 9:11pm Handy Haversack: Bagpipe, put a dinosaur in the AC. It's about to get hot in here.
	9:11pm Joe B: Hey Nate and everyone
	♥ 9:12pm Nate K.: Hey, everybody. Thanks for dropping by. Let's have some fun tonight, and maybe even learn something. (I kid, strictly fun.)
	♥ 9:13pm mariano: This Vintage Crop kicks ass.
	♥ 9:14pm efd: hey everyone, just checking in to see which songs I need to pull out of my virtual new bin for tomorrow night! :)

	♥ 9:16pm efd: We'll start with the Shop Assistants!
	♥ 9:16pm ultradamno: Neko Case did a good run on this Shangri-Las tune too.
	♥ 9:17pm Nate K.: I'd say it's maybe the definitive cover. I've always wondered if this was where Superchunk got the template.
	♥ 9:17pm Aitch: Neko Case could sing a phone-book (if there is still such a thing)
	♥ 9:17pm slugluv1313: hiya, Nate and everyone! ah yes, but always remember how learning can happen via fun :) por ejemplo, learned about the amazing Shop Assistants from listening to FMU
	♥ 9:18pm slugluv1313: hi katie!!! cuddles to the kitties :) (hah if they allow you in this HUMIDITY!)
	9:18pm Joe B: @ultra - yes! agreed, love her take
	♥ 9:19pm slugluv1313: Alice Bag! freakin' awesome
	9:21pm Joe B: The organ on this Alice Bag cut reminds me of when Mary Weiss returned to performing around the Norton album - with Dave Amels rocking the organ and Dennis D. on drums, their version of Train From Kansas City sounded like Mary fronting the Rascals!
	♥ 9:22pm Nate K.: @Ultra, that Neko take is great. Her voice is perfectly suited.
	9:24pm CC: Hi Nate...and all... just dropping by for a listen!!!...cheerz!!..
	9:24pm Joe B: Cold Light of Day - an FMU lockdown classic!
	♥ 9:25pm ultradamno: Blue Eyes sounded like they swiped Young Marble Giants' Peter Joyce drum machine
	♥ 9:28pm mariano: You know how YouTube often has "[band name] - Topic" as a channel when you look up a particular band? I just learned there's a "Various Artists - Topic" channel. Come to think of it, I love many songs by Various Artists.
	9:30pm Joe B: @mariano - love Various Artists. they did a lot of soundtracks.
	♥ 9:30pm Baja Joe: This is good.
	♥ 9:31pm ultradamno: Has there ever been a band called The Various Artists (speaking of Young Marble Giants, an offshoot band of them is Stuart Moxham & The Original Artists)?
	♥ 9:31pm dave wuz here: mary weiss' "train from" is incredible
	♥ 9:32pm slugluv1313: @ mariano -- right?! my mind is still boggling (is that even a word??) over that Carbon Nation channel from MOMC earlier
	♥ 9:33pm efd: Tuesday nights on WFMU, your place for H O T T A K E S !
	♥ 9:34pm mariano: Was wondering the same thing, ultradamno. Copyright that sucker! sugluv: yeah, it was a crazy MOMC episode.
	9:34pm thesecoronalives: nate k: what are 2-3 beatles albums you would rate highly ?
	9:35pm CC: I'm a sucker for stuff that's live mic in a good room!!!
	♥ 9:35pm Nate K.: @thesecoronalives, I love "Revolver," that comes to mind.
	♥ 9:36pm Nate K.: @efd come for the rock, stay for the enlightening conversation.
	♥ 9:37pm ultradamno: I like The Beatles Play The Residents and The Residents Play The Beatles
	9:38pm thesecoronalives: @nate k: interesting and not exactly the clue to gaining any better understanding that i maybe had hoped for.. : - D
	♥ 9:39pm ultradamno: Maybe Klaatu...though I think they started that rumor themselves.
	9:40pm CC: Bruuuuuccce!!!!
	♥ 9:49pm Baja Joe: Limo Beach sounds like KISS, but better
	♥ 9:50pm Handy Haversack: Good call, Baja Joe!
	♥ 9:50pm ultradamno: I have ethical issues with this. I mean if you're in the liquor store, just grab liquor, why fuck around with wine? Unless you're rolling drunks which...ewww.
	♥ 9:52pm Handy Haversack: Limousine Beach sounds like it would be near vineyards and vintners' sheds. I imagine the wine is being stolen from massive casks. And there are watch geese.
	♥ 9:52pm ultradamno: You DO NOT want to fuck with geese in my experience!
	♥ 9:53pm Handy Haversack: 100 percent. Not all Canadians are nice.
	♥ 9:55pm dave wuz here: gg king for president
	♥ 9:56pm mariano: Swans are scary too. When I was in England in Sep/Oct last year I was taking a hike through some marshland and there was this swan colony. They're huge! They're like ostriches with little stubby legs, and they seem pissed off about it. I slinked past them submissively. Could've sworn I heard one of them mutter "Keep moving, shitbird."
	9:58pm CC: Beer and pot, in just the right complementary amounts, is all a person needs, in my humble opinion...mmmm... in addition to music and love of course!!!...:)
	♥ 10:02pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, Mariano, there's a river we paddle in Michigan every year, and we go up and back and I always press to head out toward the lake, but there are swans down by the causeway, and Kate's basically said, "I think we know what the view looks like. This is far enough!"
	10:02pm Joe B: all titles here: wfmu.org...
	♥ 10:04pm nickybones: This Lithics is pretty great. First record I've heard of theirs.
	♥ 10:05pm Nate K.: Thanks, Joe.
	♥ 10:05pm Nate K.: @nickeybones, I definitely need to revisit.
	10:06pm CC: Ah yes...all the well-laid plans..etc...
	♥ 10:06pm ultradamno: Very animated dancing skeleton. Like if Scissor Girls could do a better early Birthday Party
	♥ 10:06pm efd: @nick Definitely go back and check their 2018 release Mating Surfaces, it's also great! (As was their live set on my show that year, just saying... )
	♥ 10:07pm nickybones: @efd: oh WOW, didn't realize they'd come through. Will definitely check out both, thanks!
	10:09pm Tookie Wuthry Guffy: two nights up and no sleep tonight. what do security guards do overnight? something old from back when?
	♥ 10:13pm Chop Scott: Good Evening Nate and all!
	10:14pm james: c.c. - you right!
	♥ 10:15pm ultradamno: Methcathinone.
	10:19pm ToTetsu: I didn't learn the meaning of emulsify until a very late age.
	10:19pm medson: Killer track here.
	♥ 10:20pm ultradamno: New York Punks Are Running for Office www.vice.com...
	10:21pm CC: Yeah baby!!!
	10:21pm Joe B: definitely in my top 10 fake live records of all time!
	♥ 10:23pm ParUbi: Hey everyone, hi Nate
	♥ 10:23pm ultradamno: Yeah, if you're going to go to the trouble you've got to load up on squealing females, otherwise what are you doin'?
	10:29pm CC: I'm pretty sure that most girls still just like to have fun when they can get away with it???...:)
	10:34pm Joe B: great segue!
	10:38pm CC: You're killin' it, Nate!!!
	10:42pm Joe B: Motown turned down gwen owens, guess they couldn't always be right!
	10:43pm CC: Dang..!.. this kind of music is what we've been missing for a while!!!...:)
	♥ 10:47pm mariano: Joe: yeah, they also put out Rockwell!
	10:50pm Joe B: ha, well it was a big seller! i think he was Berry's nephew or something
	♥ 10:51pm Nate K.: I've read that Motown almost signed the Fall. That makes my head spin. They must have really been searching for a new angle.
	♥ 10:53pm ultradamno: I've read that before, might have been in Renegade. Smith said Gordy got a copy of Hex Enduction Hour and he (Smith) was like "Oh, shit" because of how might react to 'that line' in The Classical. I posit no one at Motown got that far into the record.
	10:54pm Joe B: well they did have Meat Loaf before he was famous
	♥ 10:54pm Nate K.: I don't know the Meat Loaf connection.
	10:54pm CC: Motown became a big racket just like so many other things...people found other ways to get the stuff out...
	10:55pm Joe B: meatloaf was signed to the Rare Earth label
	♥ 10:55pm Nate K.: @Ultra, I heard "that line" is what busted the deal. So, who knows?
	♥ 10:55pm mariano: Gordy's son actually. There's a cool YT channel, Todd in the Shadows, does a show called One Hit Wonderland, does a 15-20 min video for each song/band. He did one about Rockwell, was interesting. Apparently BG was never a big part of his life, he was from a previous marriage. He got his record deal without his father's knowledge, which is cool I guess, but of course everybody else knew who he was, so...
	♥ 10:55pm Nate K.: As Meat Loaf?!
	10:56pm Joe B: yeah a male/female due - Meatloaf & Stoney was the billing
	♥ 10:57pm ultradamno: I've never heard of anyone at Motown commenting on it. Just Smith's words, and he never let facts get in the way of a good narrative.
	♥ 10:57pm Blacktooth: This Roy Brooks is heavy like a truckload of bricks. Great stuff.
	10:57pm Joe B: I doubt Berry was involved. There was thought they might start a UK version of a rock label like Rare Earth. I'm sure that line was the deal breaker but 'almost signed' is probably 'was one of dozens of bands they considered'
	10:58pm Joe B: @mariano - ah cool! will have to investigate. figured he had to have some pull to get two Jacksons on his record!
	10:59pm Frank: +1 on the Roy Brooks!
	11:03pm Joe B: breaking news, hot takes - Nate brings it all!
	11:03pm CC: I know it's probably not the right time to mention it but there have always been black racists just like there have been white racists maybe not in the same category???
	11:04pm Joe B: @nate - ha!
	♥ 11:04pm mariano: Yesss! Fred Garvin!
	♥ 11:04pm ultradamno: He wore a truss.
	♥ 11:05pm mariano: In the best version of the universe, the two Garvins would be one.
	♥ 11:06pm ultradamno: Excuse me. I'm selling him short. It was an elaborate network of trusses snltranscripts.jt.org...
	11:06pm CC: Mmmm...this is a nice song!!!
	11:07pm Joe B: In Fred We Truss
	♥ 11:08pm mariano: Trusses. Hah!
	♥ 11:09pm ultradamno: Which is probably the seed which gave rise to that show Hung. You remember, right? Where all the pretty women wanted to pay Thomas Jane for sex...
	♥ 11:11pm mariano: Goulet!
	11:11pm CC: Timeless!!!
	♥ 11:11pm Aitch: Another Scott to love.
	♥ 11:13pm ultradamno: I bet that creep from Wisconsin is going to launch a singing career soon, just to make web searches that much more difficult.
	♥ 11:14pm mariano: Wow, need a cigarette after that one!
	11:14pm CC: Cigarettes are good!!!...:)
	11:17pm Dave Miss: Good show
	11:17pm CC: Just remember to buy your tobacco off of an Indian reservation and roll your own!!!...:)
	♥ 11:18pm Nate K.: @ultra, I feel conflicted every time I say I hate that guy, lest someone misunderstand me.
	♥ 11:18pm Nate K.: @Aitch, so many Scotts...
	11:21pm CC: I'm trying to think of famous people that were named Scott... F Scott Fitzgerald???
	♥ 11:22pm ultradamno: Scott 'Rock Action' Asheton
	♥ 11:25pm slugluv1313: damn! i remember Stoney and Meatloaf! "What You See Is What You Get" was their hit when i was a kid (catching up with the comments -- and yeah, i can remember THAT, but stuff i have to get at the grocery store?!!)
	11:27pm Andal: I have never heard a Jacques Brel cover on FMU. That was great. I stumbled upon the very moving ritual dedicating a plaque to him in Paris in 2019.
	♥ 11:27pm ultradamno: Dr. Gene Scott
	11:28pm CC: Just like Barry Gibb Brian outlived all his brothers..
	♥ 11:31pm Nate K.: @Andal, Scott Walker did an entire album of Jacques Brel covers.
	11:33pm Andal: @Nate K.: Wow. Thank you!
	♥ 11:33pm Nate K.: Or, I should say, there is a collection of all the Brel he covered on his early albums.
	♥ 11:35pm ultradamno: I was going to say... Funeral Tango is my personal favorite...so, so pissy.
	11:35pm johnzo: fatalencounters.org
	♥ 11:35pm mariano: There's Randolph Scott, Scott of the Antarctic. Andal: I first heard Mort Shuman on FMU, he was another American interpreter and popularizer of Brel's songs.
	11:36pm CC: I remember John Lennon mentioning Jacques brel in an interview???
	♥ 11:36pm ultradamno: George C. Scott.
	♥ 11:38pm ultradamno: Scott Wilson (Walking Dead) Jacqueline Scott
	11:38pm RabidRabbit: @Andal www.discogs.com... Bought it ages ago...awesome album :)
	11:41pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Glad to hear you burning it down as usual...
	11:44pm Joe B: @ ultra - not to be confused with George Scott!
	♥ 11:44pm Nate K.: Hey, Todd! Hope you're well. And I hope to see you out there someday soon.
	♥ 11:44pm mariano: Gah, of course, George C. Scott! I can't think of him without thinking of this scene: www.youtube.com...
	11:45pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks, Nate...would be great to see you too.
	11:46pm KWilde: I was wondering if you were going to bookend the show with this version. Great show BTW
	♥ 11:46pm ultradamno: Sir Walter Scott and Winfield Scott...AKA GREAT SCOTT!!!
	11:48pm Andal: @RabidRabbit, thank you!! Will look up.
	11:48pm Ira: Which George Scott? The ex-Red Sock or the bassist in the Raybeats and 8 Eyed Spy?
	11:49pm Frank: It's a thin field; Scott Joplin
	♥ 11:50pm ultradamno: Scott Rudin...I had to look him up, he's an actor, I knew the name though and I call that famous.
	11:50pm Ira: C'mon, guys, I have a show to prepare. Do I have to do all the work for you? F. Scott Key. Pippa Scott. Marge Scott.
	♥ 11:51pm ultradamno: Not actor, producer.
	♥ 11:51pm mariano: Sir Walter Scott.
	11:52pm Andal: Randolph Scott...
	♥ 11:52pm ultradamno: Scotty Pippin, that's a person, isn't it?
	♥ 11:53pm ultradamno: Scott Towels?
	♥ 11:53pm Nate K.: Is that a Cincinnati Reds joke, Ira?
	♥ 11:53pm mariano: Great Scott. Scotty on Star Trek.
	11:54pm Ira: Too soon?
	♥ 11:54pm mariano: Thank you Nate and crew!
	11:54pm RabidRabbit: @Andal Always welcome fistbump:)
	11:55pm CC: She comes..!..etc...
	♥ 11:55pm Nate K.: Thanks, folks.
	♥ 11:56pm Fuzzy: Bon Scott already mentioned?
	11:56pm CC: Great fricken show!!!
	♥ 11:56pm mariano: Duh, Bon, of course!
	♥ 11:56pm Fuzzy: Thanks Nate and skeleton crew!
	11:57pm Tookie Wuthry Guffy: window time
	♥ 11:57pm ultradamno: Now Ludivines, I'll start Ludivine Sagnier.
	♥ 11:58pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Nate!
	11:58pm Joe B: thanks Nate
	♥ 11:58pm Blacktooth: Great show tonight, thanks for broadcasting the tunes!! Just lost $50 to bandcamp tonight because of this show.

View Nate K.'s profile

Music for the revolution in my head: choogling punks; power pop, both skinny-tied and long-haired; soul shouters and girl groups; bubblegum and acid rock; global fuzz; weirdos and outsiders, and the Weirdos and the Outsiders; Archie Shepp and J. Geils. Plus, live bands.

Upcoming events:

Fri. May 3rd, 9pm - Midnight: Little Black Egg (More info...)
Georgia Hubley needs no introduction, especially around these parts. But when she's not drumming and singing in the one and only Yo La Tengo, Georgia dons the moniker Little Black Egg. A loose, improvisatory project that delivers an almost liminal version of that special something that she so deftly brings to YLT, Little Black Egg will be rounded out with Ira Kaplan for a special live, in-the-studio performance on Burn It Down! Friday, May 3.

June 23, 2020: "Just imagine. Don't say it out loud."

	♥ 9:34pm mariano: Was wondering the same thing, ultradamno. Copyright that sucker! sugluv: yeah, it was a crazy MOMC episode.
	9:34pm thesecoronalives: nate k: what are 2-3 beatles albums you would rate highly ?
	9:35pm CC: I'm a sucker for stuff that's live mic in a good room!!!
	♥ 9:35pm Nate K.: @thesecoronalives, I love "Revolver," that comes to mind.
	♥ 9:36pm Nate K.: @efd come for the rock, stay for the enlightening conversation.
	♥ 9:37pm ultradamno: I like The Beatles Play The Residents and The Residents Play The Beatles
	9:38pm thesecoronalives: @nate k: interesting and not exactly the clue to gaining any better understanding that i maybe had hoped for.. : - D
	♥ 9:39pm ultradamno: Maybe Klaatu...though I think they started that rumor themselves.
	9:40pm CC: Bruuuuuccce!!!!
	♥ 9:49pm Baja Joe: Limo Beach sounds like KISS, but better
	♥ 9:50pm Handy Haversack: Good call, Baja Joe!
	♥ 9:50pm ultradamno: I have ethical issues with this. I mean if you're in the liquor store, just grab liquor, why fuck around with wine? Unless you're rolling drunks which...ewww.
	♥ 9:52pm Handy Haversack: Limousine Beach sounds like it would be near vineyards and vintners' sheds. I imagine the wine is being stolen from massive casks. And there are watch geese.
	♥ 9:52pm ultradamno: You DO NOT want to fuck with geese in my experience!
	♥ 9:53pm Handy Haversack: 100 percent. Not all Canadians are nice.
	♥ 9:55pm dave wuz here: gg king for president
	♥ 9:56pm mariano: Swans are scary too. When I was in England in Sep/Oct last year I was taking a hike through some marshland and there was this swan colony. They're huge! They're like ostriches with little stubby legs, and they seem pissed off about it. I slinked past them submissively. Could've sworn I heard one of them mutter "Keep moving, shitbird."
	9:58pm CC: Beer and pot, in just the right complementary amounts, is all a person needs, in my humble opinion...mmmm... in addition to music and love of course!!!...:)
	♥ 10:02pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, Mariano, there's a river we paddle in Michigan every year, and we go up and back and I always press to head out toward the lake, but there are swans down by the causeway, and Kate's basically said, "I think we know what the view looks like. This is far enough!"
	10:02pm Joe B: all titles here: wfmu.org...
	♥ 10:04pm nickybones: This Lithics is pretty great. First record I've heard of theirs.
	♥ 10:05pm Nate K.: Thanks, Joe.
	♥ 10:05pm Nate K.: @nickeybones, I definitely need to revisit.
	10:06pm CC: Ah yes...all the well-laid plans..etc...
	♥ 10:06pm ultradamno: Very animated dancing skeleton. Like if Scissor Girls could do a better early Birthday Party
	♥ 10:06pm efd: @nick Definitely go back and check their 2018 release Mating Surfaces, it's also great! (As was their live set on my show that year, just saying... )
	♥ 10:07pm nickybones: @efd: oh WOW, didn't realize they'd come through. Will definitely check out both, thanks!
	10:09pm Tookie Wuthry Guffy: two nights up and no sleep tonight. what do security guards do overnight? something old from back when?
	♥ 10:13pm Chop Scott: Good Evening Nate and all!
	10:14pm james: c.c. - you right!
	♥ 10:15pm ultradamno: Methcathinone.
	10:19pm ToTetsu: I didn't learn the meaning of emulsify until a very late age.
	10:19pm medson: Killer track here.
	♥ 10:20pm ultradamno: New York Punks Are Running for Office www.vice.com...
	10:21pm CC: Yeah baby!!!
	10:21pm Joe B: definitely in my top 10 fake live records of all time!
	♥ 10:23pm ParUbi: Hey everyone, hi Nate
	♥ 10:23pm ultradamno: Yeah, if you're going to go to the trouble you've got to load up on squealing females, otherwise what are you doin'?
	10:29pm CC: I'm pretty sure that most girls still just like to have fun when they can get away with it???...:)
	10:34pm Joe B: great segue!
	10:38pm CC: You're killin' it, Nate!!!
	10:42pm Joe B: Motown turned down gwen owens, guess they couldn't always be right!
	10:43pm CC: Dang..!.. this kind of music is what we've been missing for a while!!!...:)
	♥ 10:47pm mariano: Joe: yeah, they also put out Rockwell!
	10:50pm Joe B: ha, well it was a big seller! i think he was Berry's nephew or something
	♥ 10:51pm Nate K.: I've read that Motown almost signed the Fall. That makes my head spin. They must have really been searching for a new angle.
	♥ 10:53pm ultradamno: I've read that before, might have been in Renegade. Smith said Gordy got a copy of Hex Enduction Hour and he (Smith) was like "Oh, shit" because of how might react to 'that line' in The Classical. I posit no one at Motown got that far into the record.
	10:54pm Joe B: well they did have Meat Loaf before he was famous
	♥ 10:54pm Nate K.: I don't know the Meat Loaf connection.
	10:54pm CC: Motown became a big racket just like so many other things...people found other ways to get the stuff out...
	10:55pm Joe B: meatloaf was signed to the Rare Earth label
	♥ 10:55pm Nate K.: @Ultra, I heard "that line" is what busted the deal. So, who knows?
	♥ 10:55pm mariano: Gordy's son actually. There's a cool YT channel, Todd in the Shadows, does a show called One Hit Wonderland, does a 15-20 min video for each song/band. He did one about Rockwell, was interesting. Apparently BG was never a big part of his life, he was from a previous marriage. He got his record deal without his father's knowledge, which is cool I guess, but of course everybody else knew who he was, so...
	♥ 10:55pm Nate K.: As Meat Loaf?!
	10:56pm Joe B: yeah a male/female due - Meatloaf & Stoney was the billing
	♥ 10:57pm ultradamno: I've never heard of anyone at Motown commenting on it. Just Smith's words, and he never let facts get in the way of a good narrative.
	♥ 10:57pm Blacktooth: This Roy Brooks is heavy like a truckload of bricks. Great stuff.
	10:57pm Joe B: I doubt Berry was involved. There was thought they might start a UK version of a rock label like Rare Earth. I'm sure that line was the deal breaker but 'almost signed' is probably 'was one of dozens of bands they considered'
	10:58pm Joe B: @mariano - ah cool! will have to investigate. figured he had to have some pull to get two Jacksons on his record!
	10:59pm Frank: +1 on the Roy Brooks!
	11:03pm Joe B: breaking news, hot takes - Nate brings it all!
	11:03pm CC: I know it's probably not the right time to mention it but there have always been black racists just like there have been white racists maybe not in the same category???
	11:04pm Joe B: @nate - ha!
	♥ 11:04pm mariano: Yesss! Fred Garvin!
	♥ 11:04pm ultradamno: He wore a truss.
	♥ 11:05pm mariano: In the best version of the universe, the two Garvins would be one.
	♥ 11:06pm ultradamno: Excuse me. I'm selling him short. It was an elaborate network of trusses snltranscripts.jt.org...
	11:06pm CC: Mmmm...this is a nice song!!!
	11:07pm Joe B: In Fred We Truss
	♥ 11:08pm mariano: Trusses. Hah!
	♥ 11:09pm ultradamno: Which is probably the seed which gave rise to that show Hung. You remember, right? Where all the pretty women wanted to pay Thomas Jane for sex...
	♥ 11:11pm mariano: Goulet!
	11:11pm CC: Timeless!!!
	♥ 11:11pm Aitch: Another Scott to love.
	♥ 11:13pm ultradamno: I bet that creep from Wisconsin is going to launch a singing career soon, just to make web searches that much more difficult.
	♥ 11:14pm mariano: Wow, need a cigarette after that one!
	11:14pm CC: Cigarettes are good!!!...:)
	11:17pm Dave Miss: Good show
	11:17pm CC: Just remember to buy your tobacco off of an Indian reservation and roll your own!!!...:)
	♥ 11:18pm Nate K.: @ultra, I feel conflicted every time I say I hate that guy, lest someone misunderstand me.
	♥ 11:18pm Nate K.: @Aitch, so many Scotts...
	11:21pm CC: I'm trying to think of famous people that were named Scott... F Scott Fitzgerald???
	♥ 11:22pm ultradamno: Scott 'Rock Action' Asheton
	♥ 11:25pm slugluv1313: damn! i remember Stoney and Meatloaf! "What You See Is What You Get" was their hit when i was a kid (catching up with the comments -- and yeah, i can remember THAT, but stuff i have to get at the grocery store?!!)
	11:27pm Andal: I have never heard a Jacques Brel cover on FMU. That was great. I stumbled upon the very moving ritual dedicating a plaque to him in Paris in 2019.
	♥ 11:27pm ultradamno: Dr. Gene Scott
	11:28pm CC: Just like Barry Gibb Brian outlived all his brothers..
	♥ 11:31pm Nate K.: @Andal, Scott Walker did an entire album of Jacques Brel covers.
	11:33pm Andal: @Nate K.: Wow. Thank you!
	♥ 11:33pm Nate K.: Or, I should say, there is a collection of all the Brel he covered on his early albums.
	♥ 11:35pm ultradamno: I was going to say... Funeral Tango is my personal favorite...so, so pissy.
	11:35pm johnzo: fatalencounters.org
	♥ 11:35pm mariano: There's Randolph Scott, Scott of the Antarctic. Andal: I first heard Mort Shuman on FMU, he was another American interpreter and popularizer of Brel's songs.
	11:36pm CC: I remember John Lennon mentioning Jacques brel in an interview???
	♥ 11:36pm ultradamno: George C. Scott.
	♥ 11:38pm ultradamno: Scott Wilson (Walking Dead) Jacqueline Scott
	11:38pm RabidRabbit: @Andal www.discogs.com... Bought it ages ago...awesome album :)
	11:41pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Glad to hear you burning it down as usual...
	11:44pm Joe B: @ ultra - not to be confused with George Scott!
	♥ 11:44pm Nate K.: Hey, Todd! Hope you're well. And I hope to see you out there someday soon.
	♥ 11:44pm mariano: Gah, of course, George C. Scott! I can't think of him without thinking of this scene: www.youtube.com...
	11:45pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks, Nate...would be great to see you too.
	11:46pm KWilde: I was wondering if you were going to bookend the show with this version. Great show BTW
	♥ 11:46pm ultradamno: Sir Walter Scott and Winfield Scott...AKA GREAT SCOTT!!!
	11:48pm Andal: @RabidRabbit, thank you!! Will look up.
	11:48pm Ira: Which George Scott? The ex-Red Sock or the bassist in the Raybeats and 8 Eyed Spy?
	11:49pm Frank: It's a thin field; Scott Joplin
	♥ 11:50pm ultradamno: Scott Rudin...I had to look him up, he's an actor, I knew the name though and I call that famous.
	11:50pm Ira: C'mon, guys, I have a show to prepare. Do I have to do all the work for you? F. Scott Key. Pippa Scott. Marge Scott.
	♥ 11:51pm ultradamno: Not actor, producer.
	♥ 11:51pm mariano: Sir Walter Scott.
	11:52pm Andal: Randolph Scott...
	♥ 11:52pm ultradamno: Scotty Pippin, that's a person, isn't it?
	♥ 11:53pm ultradamno: Scott Towels?
	♥ 11:53pm Nate K.: Is that a Cincinnati Reds joke, Ira?
	♥ 11:53pm mariano: Great Scott. Scotty on Star Trek.
	11:54pm Ira: Too soon?
	♥ 11:54pm mariano: Thank you Nate and crew!
	11:54pm RabidRabbit: @Andal Always welcome fistbump:)
	11:55pm CC: She comes..!..etc...
	♥ 11:55pm Nate K.: Thanks, folks.
	♥ 11:56pm Fuzzy: Bon Scott already mentioned?
	11:56pm CC: Great fricken show!!!

	♥ 11:56pm Fuzzy: Thanks Nate and skeleton crew!
	11:57pm Tookie Wuthry Guffy: window time
	♥ 11:57pm ultradamno: Now Ludivines, I'll start Ludivine Sagnier.
