@Jon I read on your Instagram you were at the June of 44 show in Philly last week. I was there too, a friend of mine and I took the 8-hour drive from Ontario.
Rofflestomp (Sonar Donor) 5:11:13 PM
Howdy Young enthusiests.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:11:28 PM
Brian! Next time you drive to Philadelphia on a whim for a great rock show...let me know!
Ben Reese 5:12:14 PM
Joining the chat just to say Hell, yes to this cover.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:12:24 PM
She cut it out of paper, used sharpie for the black outline + lashes, stuck to forehead. Put a Planet Express logo on a black jacket, wore a white tank top and HAS PURPLE HAIR.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:12:28 PM
C'mon!
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:12:53 PM
Turns out my friend Brad recorded most of Vermonstress. Thanks, Brad.
Captain Ahab 5:13:40 PM
yeah I'm surprised too that no one recognized her!
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:14:32 PM
One person said "I know that show but I don't know who you are." Was weird.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:14:40 PM
Hey, Ben.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:14:43 PM
Roffle!
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:14:54 PM
Cap, I'll send you a photo later.
Brian Kijewski 5:16:08 PM
Yes! Totally wish I’d mentioned it this time. Would have been cool to say hello. Hopefully we make it to some more gigs in the area in future.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:16:43 PM
Were you in Philadelphia for the final out of the baseball? City was surprisingly quiet when I arrived
Brian Kijewski 5:18:37 PM
Yes, we made it in the middle of the game and were also surprised how quiet it was. Caught the last few innings in our Air BNB.
Brian Kijewski 5:19:36 PM
Our first time in the city. Very brief though, drove down the day of show and left next morning.
Rob F 5:20:35 PM
Hi Jon. The Gov't Mule vers of Cortez is a great version
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:21:22 PM
Apparently the intersection outside Johnny Brenda's was madness at the conclusion but thankfully not so when I rolled through. I wore a red shirt to try and fit in just in case...
Jen Redlights 5:21:43 PM
Joel!!! This is terrific.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:22:24 PM
No idea when / where this was recorded but glad I found it on the computer.
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 5:25:33 PM
Perfect waking up accompanyment
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:27:51 PM
Thanks to our own Mike Lupica for tipping me to this one.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:30:36 PM
Appreciate the tip, Rob F.
Brian Kijewski 5:33:01 PM
Great NY track. Haven't heard this Constantines cover before.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:34:10 PM
There's a whole 12" with Constantines doing NY covers on one side and another band doing Gordon Lightfoot tunes on the other. Thankfully my friend Shakey Mike had a copy to lend.

Damn, hope to hear that 12" some day!
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:39:29 PM
I've only heard one side.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:41:27 PM
Brian, I thought June of 44 was superb by the way. Their music has aged very well and Doug Scharin is worth the price of admission alone.
Brian 'D' For Donor 5:44:13 PM
Shelter me from the powder and the finger
Rob from Maryland 5:44:36 PM
Good afternoon everyone
Brian Kijewski 5:44:43 PM
Absolutely, what a performance! So tight. Been a fan for over 20 years and never thought I'd get the chance to catch them live. Chatted with Mueller before the gig and Scharin after. Both were super nice.
Brian 'D' For Donor 5:45:07 PM
O ya just thought of Crash Vegas. Canadian band did a version of Down to the Wire.
Dan Ruccia 5:48:55 PM
There is a band on that comp called Crazier Horse
Dan Ruccia 5:49:30 PM
Black Sabbatical is also a good band name
Dan Ruccia 5:49:59 PM
or, what Captain Ahab will someday be on?
Dan Ruccia 5:52:23 PM
KILLDOZER
Brian 'D' For Donor 5:52:31 PM
Yeah more Neil!
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:52:45 PM
I'll try and preview that one later this week, Brian.
Dan Ruccia 5:52:55 PM
Perhaps the best cover band ever?
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:53:15 PM
This came up before my "Twitter hiatus." Better cover band...Killdozer or The Feelies?
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:53:42 PM
Brian, Jeff Mueller is one of the all-time nice folks I know. Was great to see him!
jimboo 5:53:53 PM
HARD AGREE, DJ OCTO DAN
Dan Ruccia 5:54:38 PM
All I can say is the Feelies never did this cover: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ig12EFepcY
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:54:40 PM
I think The Feelies might be the better cover band overall but they never did Funk #49 by The James Gang.
Donating Supporting Monthly 5:56:30 PM
oh hell yeah
Brian Kijewski 5:57:14 PM
Nice. He tried to give us our merch for free when we mentioned we drove from Canada, but we insisted on paying. He did throw in a free 7"
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 5:58:16 PM
That rules.
Rob from Maryland 5:58:20 PM
There's a total lunar eclipse coming up https://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/total-lunar-eclipse-nov8-2022/. Totality looks to start at 5:16 Eastern time and end right around sunrise, so the moon will be setting in the west while eclipsed
Rob from Maryland 5:58:41 PM

Ya this Florry thing is cool. Heard a few times in past couple yrs on prb
Vicky Wheeler 6:10:11 PM
OMG this is beautiful... is that Florry? My playlist is not updating
Annie Mok 6:10:22 PM
What a lovely version of a lovely song!
Annie Mok 6:10:38 PM
Hello Jon and hello all! Been enjoying this week and last week!
Vicky Wheeler 6:10:38 PM
I love her so much
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:10:56 PM
It is Florry and there's a link to download the Neil Covers EP in the playlist.
Annie Mok 6:10:57 PM
ohhhh if I'm not wrong this is Low & Dirty Three?
Annie Mok 6:11:25 PM
Zak Sally & co.... I am never wrong (that's a lie)
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:11:45 PM
You are not wrong! Also, your cover is flagged for week three, Annie. I had the first two nights "scripted" by the time your (quite good) file arrived...
Vicky Wheeler 6:11:53 PM
Hi everybody, hi Jon, this show made me wish my terrible traffic jam commute would just stay jammmmmwd
Vicky Wheeler 6:12:05 PM
Jammmed*
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:12:27 PM
"jammmmmwd" makes a certain sense too though.
Dan Wade 6:15:37 PM
Hi all
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:15:56 PM
Heya Dan. How are things?
jimboo 6:16:48 PM
Dang, forgot about this dirty low cover!
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:17:46 PM
I am thrilled someone reminded me of it / that I found our copy of this CD (was in the glove compartment where it has been for years).
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:18:48 PM
Jeff, the version of this you pointed me to was something else!
Brian 'D' For Donor 6:20:16 PM
YEAH!
Dan Wade 6:20:33 PM
Overheard at work today: they're on bandcamp; they're old fashioned
Brian 'D' For Donor 6:20:34 PM
Give Danny some !
Rachel Milligan 6:21:01 PM
loved that low track wow!
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:21:23 PM
Hey, Rachel. I agree.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:21:43 PM
Dan, that is....something.
Rachel Milligan 6:22:33 PM
howdy :) popping onto chat for a sec while pumping gas, hah
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:23:01 PM
We've determined you're not in NJ then!
Sebastian Petsu 6:23:30 PM
Hey Rusties! Go Phils!
Jeff Jotz (1) 6:23:33 PM
Thanks, Jon? TBH, I can't remember what. did an hour ago, let alone a week ago.
Sebastian Petsu 6:24:11 PM
ooohhh tuning in just in time for one of my favorite Neil covers! SY goes deep!
Brian 'D' For Donor 6:24:13 PM
The Tooth! They do this right
Sebastian Petsu 6:24:45 PM
sounds more "Neil" than the original!
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:25:11 PM
Jeff, it was a 45 recorded by a Philly TV host...
Jeff Jotz (1) 6:27:04 PM
@Jon, I wasn't in Philly that often so the only TV host I was familiar with was Capt. Noah
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:27:16 PM
What about Mario Cantone?
Jeff Jotz (1) 6:28:16 PM
@Jon, I forgot I used to watch Jim Gardner on Action News when I was visiting family in Philadelphia.
Sebastian Petsu 6:29:57 PM
god i love this rockin' in the 8-bit world
Dan Ruccia 6:31:35 PM
agreed, Sebastian

TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 6:34:51 PM
This show tonight is legendary.
jimboo 6:35:04 PM
Feelies also never covered NASTY by Ms. Jackson.
Vicky Wheeler 6:35:12 PM
"Made them their own" it's bc NY is so flexy and the melodies are basically cowboy chords with the odd B- or A whatever to sound Neil. It's easy to ride and expand on. I'm not a musician so I'm just making this up.
Dan Ruccia 6:37:57 PM
@Jimbo: Now I want to hear either the Feelies or Killdozer cover "Sorry Miss Jackson"
jimboo 6:38:08 PM
Prodigal Pledgers will always be welcomed back into the fold with a modicum of gentle ribbing...
Vicky Wheeler 6:38:10 PM
Oooooooo coooool I love Chris Brokaw!! This is fantastic!
Sebastian Petsu 6:39:18 PM
yeah, this is good. was never really a fan of the original neil version, but i dig this
jimboo 6:39:40 PM
Guess my money will have to be on the Feelies unless KILLDOZER reunites (again), Dan!
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:39:56 PM
I still want each band to cover the other! Dare to dream!
Vicky Wheeler 6:40:44 PM
Agree with Sebastian, this is better than the original haha
Jeff Jotz (1) 6:43:10 PM
This is my favorite Neil song to sing off-key.
Rob from Maryland 6:43:42 PM
This is a great song in my opinion (the Ida song)
Vicky Wheeler 6:43:52 PM
Jotz, this is my favorite song to make up random harmonies
CARLOS RAMONE 6:44:16 PM
@ Jeff..most Neil songs can be sung off key and still sound good
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:44:37 PM
This is an ALL-STAR CHAT LINEUP tonight.
Sebastian Petsu 6:44:39 PM
heck! Cher covered Neil?!!! how did i never know this?!
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:44:52 PM
Listener Carlin pointed me to this one.
Vicky Wheeler 6:45:02 PM
Holy sh!t
Sebastian Petsu 6:46:26 PM
on a related Cher note folks should check out the Cher/Bowie mega-medley from a 70s TV appearance. i think it's still on youtube it's pretty amazing
Vicky Wheeler 6:46:31 PM
I feel like I am tripping right now
Sebastian Petsu 6:46:57 PM
they duet thru a bunch of covers
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:47:16 PM
I have heard Cher on WPRB twice in as many days. What a world.
Chef Emeril Lagasse 🍳 monthly dough-nor 6:47:31 PM
that sounds excellent. the "moonage daydream" movie was a trip
Dan Ruccia 6:47:36 PM
Peter Laughner!
Vicky Wheeler 6:48:08 PM
Of COURSE. this is perfect.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:48:39 PM
This Peter Laughner track sounds like it was recorded on a device in a different area code than the musician. Yet somehow it works.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:48:55 PM
(His version of Barstool Blues had too much cussin' in it.)
Brian 'D' For Donor 6:51:19 PM
ooo Ambulance Blues.
Sebastian Petsu 6:51:45 PM
do we have to bleep "p*ssing in the wind" in this one?
Dan Ruccia 6:53:23 PM
I'm suddenly reminded of this article by James Jackson Toth: https://www.stereogum.com/1445091/neil-young-albums-from-worst-to-best/photo/
Sebastian Petsu 6:53:47 PM
oohh, are those ambient ambulance noises on the recording or in my west philly neighborhood?
Patrick Rapa 6:53:50 PM
it's Toth!
Jarret Mitchell 6:53:51 PM
Jeff Rosenstock is top of 10 singer/ songwriter/musician of our time and he definitely does this song justice
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:54:08 PM
Sebastian, sadly yes.
Chef Emeril Lagasse 🍳 monthly dough-nor 6:54:57 PM
giving me slight Scott Street by Phoebe Bridgers vibes with the melody
Sebastian Petsu 6:54:58 PM
i remember from my radio days that was a word that wasn't allowed. seemed so tame but rules are rules i guess
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:54:58 PM
These days, can't sing about things going out of (or into) the middle third of the body.
Jarret Mitchell 6:54:59 PM
With complements from Laura Stevenson
Brian 'D' For Donor 6:55:04 PM
Ambulance Blues, Roll Another Number, Thrasher, Hippie Dream all have a thread. A gaze back in the past. Not wanting to relive it
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:55:11 PM
Used to be OK Now, less so unfortunately.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 6:56:41 PM
A reminder to those joining us late about pledge.wprb.com. No better time than tonight to join the WPRB family. Thanks to so many of you who are already members! You're the best.

Me too, Rob. But I said if Musk bought it I was out and I gotta be true to my word. Things could change. Nothing is set in stone. Fully understand sticking around but it isn't for me at present. Might start blogging again?

We haven't had what I call "that channel changin' tv" in a long time. On a vacation rental week I saw H Jon Benjamin hawkin sammiches for a big ol fast food chain and it did not bother me. Go get that cash H Jon. Way to go.
Vicky Wheeler 7:12:59 PM
I would buy all his sammiches
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:13:14 PM
If someone at the H Jon tier can grab fast food $$ way to go. I had no idea I loved H Jon way way way back when I first watched Dr Katz but yeah. He is the great
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:13:31 PM
What chain was it, Brian? 👁️👁️
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:13:48 PM
Been a fan of his since Home Movies and his character Coach
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:14:23 PM
Apparently TAndy this particular chain has the meats
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:14:43 PM
This ad campaign was maybe 5-7 years ago?
Rob from Maryland 7:15:05 PM
Thanks, Jon! I'll bookmark it
CARLOS RAMONE 7:15:18 PM
Chanukah marathon too?
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:15:43 PM
Oh :(

Brian 'D' For Donor 7:16:12 PM
Yes! Revisited Home Movies recently. Fun. And of course there is the video store guy on Family Guy
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:16:18 PM
Mmm their cheese sticks :)

Vicky Wheeler 7:17:28 PM
Yesssssss
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:17:31 PM
Carlos, I need to figure out what Wednesday works for Hanukkah but it is On My Mind.
Ossy Hyouka 7:17:39 PM
Philly!
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:17:41 PM
I think I have eaten the "have the meats" place less than 3 times in 53 years. There was one within walking distance of home in Levittown, PA back in the day.
Sebastian Petsu 7:18:38 PM
any chance there are any covers out there of "T-Bone" by NYCH?
Patrick Rapa 7:18:54 PM
cool that jon is a phillies fan now
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:18:55 PM
Man, this show has felt like a slow, steady ramp up all night. Having a great time on my side of the microphone.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:19:04 PM
Sebastian, see what you can find!
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:19:09 PM
From the self titled lp way back. Interesting rabbit hole reading about the pressings and mixings/masterings of Neil's solo debut lp.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:19:25 PM
I am on your bandwagon! I love you, weirdly wet baseball man.
Sebastian Petsu 7:19:28 PM
i mean, what's the alternative for Jon right now? Astros fan? naw
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:19:51 PM
glassy golden lead gtr tone
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:19:52 PM
I went there once, it was okay. Never knew of any that existed around Mercer County. GO PHILS
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:20:35 PM
Also don't forget to cheer for Philly Union on Saturday in their MLS cup final against LAFC. #phillydomination
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:20:50 PM
I mean roast beef... that's something that dinner at grandma's house perfected. I don't want a sad grey sammich of that. under a heat lamp. And I want it maybe 2 X a year
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:20:58 PM
I know someone in the chat was at the Eastern Conference Final the other night...

Patrick Rapa 7:22:04 PM
that Union game might've been the best sporting event i've ever been to. pure joy
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:23:01 PM
That's awesome. So glad you were able to go.
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:23:05 PM
@Patrick the only union game I've been blessed to attend was their game against the Red Bulls a few years ago. I forgot when, it was before the stadium was renamed Subaru.
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:23:06 PM
World it turn
Vicky Wheeler 7:23:24 PM
Honestly I always name Heart of Gold when ppl ask what's the most famous song that's the worst song by an artist. THIS CHANGED MY MIND.
Dan Ruccia 7:23:44 PM
Digging all the On the Beach covers tonight
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:24:49 PM
This is Dave from The Gary. Really like his voice a good deal.
Patrick Rapa 7:24:56 PM
nyc/north jerz has it rough when it comes to MLS. one team on a non-regulation pitch and the other named for their sponsor.
Sebastian Petsu 7:25:34 PM
"I need a crowd of people but I can't face them day to day" is the Neil line that resonates with me the most
Patrick Rapa 7:26:10 PM
i like this a lot
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:26:13 PM
It would be significantly easier to root for the Red Bulls if they were not called the Red Bulls. Go...Metrostars?
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:26:37 PM
Go Monstars
Dan Ruccia 7:26:42 PM
I always forget just how unrelentingly bleak this tune is
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:27:03 PM
His deep voice adds bleak on existing bleak.
Sebastian Petsu 7:27:23 PM
this has a Bill Callahan/Smog feel to it
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:27:23 PM
He's getting out of town to go watch the Phils game
Patrick Rapa 7:27:30 PM
Yeah. The Union have Bimbo bread as their sponsor. :(
Patrick Rapa 7:28:04 PM
definitely smog vibes
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:28:14 PM
That's appropriately New Yorkian of a sponsor, however!
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:28:18 PM
I can't decide if that makes me more likely or less likely to buy a kit.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:28:31 PM
Pat, there's a Mountain Goats cover on one of The Gary's LPs.
Vicky Wheeler 7:28:50 PM
@patrick smog yes, I was thinking David Berman

Commie Francis! How was the gongs?
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:29:55 PM
A very cool part of the Shakey bio the Human Highway info. Wish there was even more in there.
Rofflestomp (Sonar Donor) 7:29:58 PM
Devo is all about the rust I'm sure.
jimboo 7:30:00 PM
Watching this video IN MY MIND
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:31:03 PM
Neil just ripping it up

jimboo 7:32:36 PM
I really wanted to GONG I just couldn't swing it. Appreciate the heads-up Commie!
Brian Kijewski 7:33:01 PM
I'd read of this Neil Young/Devo collab before, but first time actually hearing it. Really neat.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:33:33 PM
Where was the gong? What was the gong?
jimboo 7:34:27 PM
Eat it up, Spuds! https://youtu.be/clR-KJXk7DY
Rofflestomp (Sonar Donor) 7:34:33 PM
Going, going, gong!
Ossy Hyouka 7:34:49 PM
I can think of Robot Jones cartoon on this!
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:34:50 PM
Just reading how Frank "Poncho" Sampedro said Crazy Horse played this even harder thanks to Neil sharing this Devo collab performance footage with CH
Vicky Wheeler 7:35:15 PM
Idk.. I might GONG this 🤷🏼‍♀️

Rofflestomp (Sonar Donor) 7:37:35 PM
Long time gong.
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:37:39 PM
That Neil DEVO collab was insane. Was that the one Rick James was part of too?
Jen Redlights 7:38:01 PM
Oh, my! I had no idea who did this cover.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:38:31 PM
@TAndy it is from the Human Highway film (that I was told to ask the Garden Theater to screen as a double feature with Rust Never Sleeps).
TAndy: Monthly Doner 🥙 7:38:44 PM

Jeff Jotz (1) 7:38:57 PM
When I was a kid, I thought that Nicolette Larson's version was the original one. It was always playing on the radio, it seemed.
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:39:07 PM
That's sweet.
Vicky Wheeler 7:39:37 PM
She's way tougher than the arrangement, just listen!

Donating Supporting Monthly 7:42:10 PM
I like the way the rhythm guitar and bass keep flirting with turning this into a reggae version before it unravels into the chorus

Brian 'D' For Donor 7:46:21 PM
Rick James was way earlier. In the 60s. The Mynah Birds. They were on Motown Records for 5 minutes. This was before Rick James was Rick James. Not famous yet
Jon Solomon (1) (host) 7:47:03 PM
I am way curious about the matcha place opening next to TJs!
Donating Supporting Monthly 7:47:49 PM
i am also clapping
Brian 'D' For Donor 7:47:58 PM
Eddie Van Halen did session work on that Nicolette Larson lp. Not the song Lotta Love though

Wow. No. I havent. Shall remedy that TONIGHT.

One more after this, then ML. Seriously, send those covers over for next week. I've got it 2/3 sorted already but I'm sure I'm missing some gems...
Mike Tropiano 7:56:21 PM
PRB is great all the time, but Wednesdays are my favorite day, in front of the warm, glowing radio, in front of the computer getting lots of work done. Thanks for another fun show.
Vicky Wheeler 7:56:43 PM
Aww this is an awesome song, a great cover, and a perfect closer. Thanks for the terrific night!!
