Love the Syd era and how wild their music was then

It always shocked me when Syd started singing on this one after his absence on the rest of the album. Love Syd.

the madcap laughs is one of my faves, yeah

Love him

LCD!

yup! I don't often play lcd but when i do...it must be Saturday night

Sa'uh'day innit

This will definitely do!!

Ooh I haven't heard this Wings song in yonks

Lovely sounds and I think I heard Carlton Banks from Fresh Prince singing this

thanks for the syd tune before

haha did he song this, os?

another tune by syd coming up

In his own Carlton way for a bit off key, lmao

lol

Big up, DJE!

Bless Syd 💙

Hey I heard my name on the radio!!

yoyoyo!

yes you did

A favorite PF song at our house:)

Nice sounds tonight, thanks Esoterica!

I had that Wings album since HS, but can't find it now. One of the few McCartney things I actually liked, but just can't bring myself to buy it now... lest someone find out... LOL

Was tonight’s show not started with the Bay City Rollers’ “Saturday Night”? I saw Adrenalin O.D. play the song last week at Dingbatz!

ha! cool, david, no I started with Nick Lower Rollers Show

Legendary jam right here

Welcome to Esoterica's Laser Light Show...free with planetarium ticket!

🔥🔥🎶🎶💨💨💨

it was high school nostalgia weekend for me

sweet, andrew. i'm spacin' what's fod lol

I believe there’s gonna be a laser light show at Novins Planetarium next week. (I think, or hope, that WPRB can still be received in Ocean County.)

https://novinsplanetarium.secure.force.com/ticket/#/events/a0S6A0000006POPUA2

cool, david

If the climate is clear enough, I've had PRB at Seaside and Island Beach before!

flag of democracy. thrashy philly punk band from the 80s

Shine 💎

sweet! @andrew

what a heartwrenching, beauty of a song, right jerry?

💎

this is kinda perf for a saturday night, if i do say so myself

Chatting off line and saying how this tune hits home for me

ha!

yeah me too, jerry

Bill Weedo of Mental Decay was among the 80's NJ hardcore veterans who attended last Saturday’s show at Dingbatz. I just heard that he died.

Were you In my Chevy nova hanging in the tabernacle woods esoterica? 💨💨🔥

Wow, that's QUITE a segue :-O

haha, selecta

yeah that is what i am here for, rob!

oh no david, rip

Waiting for the boc you teased as well I am hanging

oh yes, coming up but its the most famous one, should i switch it up? haha

Play one of Jokers Wild's Four Seasons covers!

i will try, david!

RIP keith levene

aw yes, andrew

I disapproved of Lydon's continued use of the PiL name after Keith Levene left. I also think Pink Floyd should've changed their name after Barrett left.

Yay! Big Star#1

yay, richard!

@ david, I feel ya

good point, david.

Firehose and New Order did the right thing.

agree

@david

anybody going to the big star tribute shows in december?

where are they? andrew

white eagle & ardmore. jody stephens & some notable friends

Wait this is not 7 screaming dizz busters!! 😂🤣🤣

Do y'all know the Shonen Knife song called "Blue Oyster Cult"?

Huge jam

totally

Selecta! I had a 70 Nova. Four door, bullet holes.

I haven't heard this in such a long time. Thanks, Eso!

Big up blue oyster cult and eboss.

If my dad was home right now I would force him to listen to the station and he would probably enjoy the show so far. All he ever listens to otherwise are the radio stations that play this kind of classic rock all the time

aw thanks, gboss!

And he is a bit of a Floyd head so he would have definitely enjoyed earlier too

Rob...I love that shonen knife song!

sure thing, rob!

I see “Jugband Blues” on the playlist. Once I found myself whistling a passage from that tune, and somebody thought I was whistling the Kinks’ “Harry Rag”. Understandable!

aha, TAndy! but we do the class ic rock selectively here so no overdosing on it

true, david, i could see that

The feeling of Halloweentown still on with Oyster!

can't go wrong with (most) BOC

Probably the only time I could get my dad to listen to the station is doing Sunday trips to the store. Caught him tapping his toes quite a bit to McSweden's music

true, os!

swee TAndy

sweet!

Sweeeeee

TAndy, McSweden plays some good melodys on Sundays :)

ha TAndy that too

agree, richard, he does

I rarely tune in on Sundays, but McSweeden indeed plays hot sounds! One time he played Patrice Rushen's Haven't You Heard classic!

McSweden is a VIP

new wave

💚💛🖤

oh yeah, was going to use this for my self-referential songs, or calling out their own name songs

theme that is

The upsetter

oh yes

Waylon!!!

oh yeah, i remember my bro ron singing this in the 70s

:)

ELO

oh yeah!

hey selecta, when is that remix of punky reggae form actually?

from

Sounds like turn to stone but disco’d up a bit

true with that double clap sound

ELO of Evil Woman

Stephen Marley bobs son did that legend remix a few years back you actually played one of the playable tracks off it

yes love that song, os!

proper roller skating music

haha selecta

true gboss!

One of my fave halloween songs, indeed, Es!

ELO on 8 track is what I remember 🔥🎶

quadraphonic

‘Ello Gov’na DJ Esoterica!

Perfect!

Hi DJ SelectaJerry!

Saw boc at the conduit in Trenton a show to remember Buck Darma up close and personal

Waylon Jennings lost a coin toss so he didn’t get to ride on the airplane that crashed and killed Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper.

Mr M greetings governor!

Greetings and Salutations to Erybody!

Yes, David. Crazy

ello, Mr M!

The Outlaws are comin' out

oh yeah possum!

george jones

Ahoy 2.0 MrM

heck yeah

Here’s some pulp fiction geekery: Thulsa Doom was played by James Earl Jones in the 1982 Conan movie, even though he was originally the antagonist in a story starring another Robert E. Howard character, Kull the Conqueror–who lived 90,000 years BEFORE Conan the Cimmerian!

that is cool! i didn't know that reference, david.

DJ Esoterica and Anyone, did ya see PATTY LOVELESS 💖 and CHRIS STAPLETON 💙 perform “You’ll Never Leave Harlan Alive” on the CMA’s this week?!? Check it out! Outstanding!

L0LZ

Also, I heart THE XX 💜

X has a cool edge about them.

my fave band

x

Nice!

here's one of my faves, too, warren zevon

This set is 🔥

thanks, TAndy

Zevon is a social justice advocate par excellence!

totally roffle

Snazzy Jazzy❣️

Let me get this straight. In “Judy is a Punk”, Jackie and Judy both went down to Berlin and joined the Ice Capades, then both went down to Frisco and joined the SLA. Then in “The Return of Jackie and Judy”, they both came up to New York just to see the Ramones. They apparently fared better than Patty Hearst! And exactly which of them “wrote that letter”?

i had to go and google what is a Thompson Gunner.

AutomaticGoogle. ;)

Well copy and paste for the real lazy, Colin!

a gun developed in WWI, right, colin? yes do

submachine gun

is that right?

Someone explain the David Shortell post too 😝🤓

"The" Thompson Automatic. A collectors dream gun which thanfully requires special permits.

-ᎷяM, the Brain shampoo defence is all I remember about the SLA stuff my self.

WestSiiidddeee!

School Library Association offers brain shampoo??

Cowlafornyuh

Errr oopppsssssie

>:)

lol

Nice ad like it's on youtube

-ᎷяM, sometime after the initial freshman library orientation I believe. :)

nooooooo

Imma wash that smartz right into my brainz!

The answer to the thompson gunner google was a little unexpected: The fictional character Roland is a Norwegian who becomes embroiled in the aftermath of the Nigerian Civil War and Congo Crisis of the 1960s. The lyrics mention a "Congo war" and the years 1966 and 1967, which correspond to the mercenary-led Kisangani Mutinies after the Congo Crisis.

@Esoterica, it was nice to hear the Zevon and the BOC songs!

aw thx, thx for hanging with me!

I read and thought, i gonna have to google all of that...... (brain static noises)

@rob

et al of course!!

Goodnight everyone! (and thanks Esoterica)
