Happy 2022!
Brian D 5:06:57 PM
Happy New Year KPC and all!
DSM 5:07:52 PM
Heyooo
DSM 5:08:29 PM
Can't wait for the 1/3 of a song
DSM 5:10:07 PM
Oh and here it is!
KPC (host) 5:12:23 PM
LOL
KPC (host) 5:12:29 PM
Welcome & Happy New year!
Fossil (AndrewT) 5:13:05 PM
So will you have a specisl show for your 103.3'd consecutive show?
KPC (host) 5:13:45 PM
LOL. Pretty sure I already had that years ago!
Fossil (AndrewT) 5:14:22 PM
🤔
DSM 5:16:36 PM
KPC, do you have any of your 1988 broadcasts archived? And if so, at some point could you play a 'throwback' segment from one?
KPC (host) 5:17:20 PM
OMG...I actually have a part of my first show on cassette in my attic somewhere believe it or not...
KPC (host) 5:17:26 PM
Summer 1988
KPC (host) 5:17:38 PM
Finding it would be a challenge
KPC (host) 5:17:51 PM
I'm sure I'd just be embarrassed
DSM 5:19:08 PM
Haha, I'm always so curious about the long term DJ's young broadcasts.
DSM 5:19:39 PM
Summers in the attic may have claimed it by now...
KPC (host) 5:19:54 PM
Haha...hopefully!!
KPC (host) 5:21:21 PM
I'm sure I'd be wincing to hear it.
DSM 5:21:44 PM
Fully understandable haha
DSM 5:23:27 PM
I've listened to quite a few best of 2021 shows on WPRB now, and there's still so much new stuff I'm hearing. 2021 churned out a lot a quality music, if nothing else.
KPC (host) 5:24:28 PM
Yes! The hard part is choosing what doesn't get in the countdown.
KPC (host) 5:25:16 PM
And of course there's always the "How'd I miss that?" moments afterwards.
Ambrose Hughes 5:32:09 PM
Hello KPC, Happy New Year!
KPC (host) 5:33:39 PM
Hi Ambrose! Happy New Year!
Ambrose Hughes 5:49:24 PM
Nice to know Sunvolt still exist, I had no idea.
Ambrose Hughes 5:50:02 PM
*Sun Volt, rather.
KPC (host) 5:50:59 PM
Yeah me neither til I found this record at Rough Trade!
Teresa Peacock 5:55:53 PM
Happiest New Year, Everyone! Do you think 'Regain Records' is a foil for Relapse? This band sounds sorta Relapse Records-esque
KPC (host) 5:58:17 PM
Hi Teresa! Def sounds like it.
KPC (host) 5:58:37 PM
Apparently Regain came from Wrong Again Records.
Teresa Peacock 6:00:06 PM
Oh that makes sense! (-:
Ambrose Hughes 6:01:44 PM
Hi Teresa! Happy New Year to you too.
Teresa Peacock 6:02:24 PM
Happiest New Year, Ambrose!!
Rob from Snowy Maryland 6:02:31 PM
Good evening everyone and happy new year!
KPC (host) 6:03:07 PM
Hi & Happy New Year Rob!
Teresa Peacock 6:04:05 PM
Oooo! I forgot about Nightshift! I love their gentle, bossa-like vocals and the spacey psych fuzz!
Teresa Peacock 6:04:55 PM
Happiest 2022, Rob from MD!
Rob from Snowy Maryland 6:05:56 PM
Hi KPC and Teresa! We picked up like 6 inches of snow today ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
KPC (host) 6:06:04 PM
Yes I love Nightshift! I like their 2020 a little better
KPC (host) 6:06:20 PM
Hey cool! No snow here :(
Rob from Snowy Maryland 6:06:54 PM
KPC your turn will come. Maryland's capital Annapolis got more than we did, I think
Ambrose Hughes 6:09:01 PM
Hi Rob! Happy New Year.
Rob from Snowy Maryland 6:09:50 PM
Hi Ambrose and happy new year to you too!
Teresa Peacock 6:12:30 PM
No snow here in Central MA either. )-: I've got the snow-envy but fierce!!
KPC (host) 6:12:41 PM
Me too!
KPC (host) 6:15:21 PM
When I was little my friend & I used to bet when the first snow (of significance) would come...we always guessed the 1st week of December.
KPC (host) 6:15:41 PM
B/c we wanted it to snow if course.
KPC (host) 6:17:54 PM
Sometime we got lucky
KPC (host) 6:18:09 PM
In 5th grade it snowed a ton in October here
Teresa Peacock 6:19:33 PM
This last one in the GY!BE -- does anyone else hear an homage to 'Maggot Brain' or am I alone?
KPC (host) 6:20:08 PM
Whoa...didn't notice that!
KPC (host) 6:20:38 PM
That's cool thanks Teresa
Rob from Snowy Maryland 6:22:19 PM
We've enjoyed these last two tracks (GY!BE and 11DD)
KPC (host) 6:24:08 PM
Thank you Rob!
KPC (host) 6:24:54 PM
As an old Neil Young fan & Pink Floyd fan I think they are both awesome.
Bill Davidson 6:49:20 PM
Hey KPC, late to the party today. Best of 2021 meaning music released last year?
KPC (host) 6:49:26 PM
Yes
KPC (host) 6:49:33 PM
Hi Bill!
Bill Davidson 6:53:05 PM
I would have a difficult time filling an hour with new music much less three. I'm still collecting music from the more distant past
KPC (host) 6:53:32 PM
Well me too. But that's all I do really -- listen to music.
Bill Davidson 6:55:53 PM
I admire your ability to keep up with new music. I fell behind after my HMV store closed in 2003.
KPC (host) 6:56:50 PM
It's fun! I can't listen to same stuff forever.
KPC (host) 6:57:01 PM
But I do still like my old records of course.
Bill Davidson 7:03:17 PM
I visited a couple used record stores in Boston recently and discovered that I knew most of the albums in the cut-out bins, i.e. unpopular music.
KPC (host) 7:03:28 PM
LOL
KPC (host) 7:03:44 PM
Well a lot of really good music ends up there..
Bill Davidson 7:04:06 PM
It makes it difficult to find my favorite music on streaming sites.
KPC (host) 7:04:08 PM
It's a lot about exposure as you know.
Bill Davidson 7:05:09 PM
I was exposed to a lot of artists that got dropped by their record label after their first album.
KPC (host) 7:05:17 PM
Well streaming services suck anyway
KPC (host) 7:07:14 PM
I still believe in physical media anyway
KPC (host) 7:07:19 PM
Takes up a lot of space tho
Danosaur🦕 7:07:50 PM
Hi, everybody. Just listening to the station for the first time today and I like what I've heard so far. 👍
KPC (host) 7:08:04 PM
Hi Danosaur! Welcome!
KPC (host) 7:08:09 PM
Glad you like it!
Rob from Snowy Maryland 7:11:04 PM
Hello Danosaur!
Danosaur🦕 7:12:17 PM
Why, hello, Rob from Snowy Maryland. Fancy meeting you here.
Rob from Snowy Maryland 7:13:29 PM
Indeed! Welcome to WPRB I hear there is a radio station outage somewhere today
Danosaur🦕 7:13:30 PM
You gotta love a good pun band name.
Danosaur🦕 7:13:56 PM
Yeah, KSPC is down until tomorrow.
Rob from Snowy Maryland 7:16:19 PM
Hopefully it will be up and running tomorrow evening
Danosaur🦕 7:19:59 PM

Danosaur🦕 7:23:02 PM
Nice spooky synth work on this one

KPC (host) 7:28:57 PM
It really is
KPC (host) 7:37:18 PM
The whole thing really
Rob from Snowy Maryland 7:37:27 PM
Yep!
KPC (host) 7:37:30 PM
Is I want you she's so heavy
KPC (host) 7:37:38 PM
That's why it's great
Bill Davidson 7:37:51 PM
(...Sorry, I deleted my comment.)
Rob from Snowy Maryland 7:38:43 PM
@Danosaur, I learned of the outage from DJ A, and Wal on Saturday afternoon also mentioned it. I too hope Glitter Hour is going to be on tomorrow
Danosaur🦕 7:42:01 PM

This countdown of your favorite 103.3 (ha) songs from 2021 is going to be a fun ride. I missed the third of the song at the start of your show, @KPC.
KPC (host) 7:49:44 PM
Oh sorry...yes I always do that. It's fun & different...playing 1/3 of a song lol
KPC (host) 7:50:22 PM
Sorry you missed it that is
Christine 🦉 7:51:55 PM
