Hey, it's Tuesday afternoon! And it's radio time!
Brian D 3:01:12 PM
Don't tentacle that dial....
Ambrose Hughes 3:05:17 PM
High eight🐙
Dan Ruccia (host) 3:10:20 PM
Howdy Bo and Brian!
Dan Ruccia (host) 3:18:33 PM
Gotta say, this Sniffany & the Nits record is maybe one of my favorite albums of the summer. Gloriously demented
Brian D 3:22:19 PM
Pazuzu! The name of the demon from The Exorcist
Brian D 3:22:50 PM
A lozenge sir perhaps?
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ 3:23:08 PM
Tasmanian Devil knows how to rock!
Brian D 3:23:15 PM
Great post Wilbo moment here
Brian D 3:23:41 PM
Fits right into this afternoon
Dan Ruccia (host) 3:24:36 PM
Definitely down for Exorcist metal
Brian D 3:39:16 PM
I've always thought Pazuzu is quite a cute name for a demon. Snuggly even. Not at all a bad ass name
TAndy 3:41:18 PM
Haveing fun isn't hard when you have a lieberry card!
Dan Ruccia (host) 3:44:40 PM
The Exorcist remake from Pazuzu's perspective, about how it was just a misunderstood, friendly demon and it was all that pesky priest's fault
richard lyons 3:46:30 PM
Pazuzu's Pesky Priest
Brian D 3:47:10 PM
Demon Dancer!
Dan Ruccia (host) 3:48:08 PM
It's so utterly bizarre that this song somehow became a hit for a minute
Brian D 3:48:21 PM
Mashup medley with Tom Waits "Jockey Full of Bourbon" fits so well with this SNZ tune
Brian D 3:49:43 PM
Then get fitted for a suit of flame.
Brian D 3:49:56 PM
HA! NICE!
Brian D 3:50:21 PM
That whip crack makes the whole song
Brian D 3:50:48 PM
And... Marc Ribot's guitar lines... perfect
Dan Ruccia (host) 3:51:14 PM
The overall space is just really nice. Whatever is clanging in the background under this solo is spot on
Brian D 3:51:47 PM
There's the devil again... that flat five interval in Marc's solo ha
Brian D 3:52:34 PM
Stayzebo horn. Slingerland ride. Great music instrument name drops
Jon Solomon 4:01:43 PM
Regular shirts, wide ties.
Dan Ruccia (host) 4:05:42 PM
I swear I can only successfully identify like half of the clothing items that ID mentions. The late 60s were a weird time
Brian D 4:10:39 PM
Johnny Greenwood
Krista 4:14:04 PM
Love personal and the pizzas
Brian D 4:14:17 PM
i minor to V Major progression. Good stuff
TAndy 4:21:05 PM
I just love pizzas
Dan Ruccia (host) 4:33:23 PM
Leftover space song from last week
Dan Ruccia (host) 4:33:47 PM
Like pizza, space songs can also be eaten cold
TAndy 4:38:21 PM
I wonder if they have pizza in Space
Dan Ruccia (host) 4:39:38 PM
Extreme Looney Tunes voice: "PIZZAS. IN. SPAAAAAAACE."
TAndy 4:43:41 PM
Toppings: space dust; space weed; space radiation molecules; mars bacteria
