Ho, HI

Hey, Ha

Oi oi

hahah Just caught the 'personal leopard skin phones' part xD

Port Salut is made of theese

😝🤓

Made of cheese??

Who am I to dis-a-Brie?!?

RENFIELD❣️

In 4-D

What. Is. This. Album. !?!

Love this.

Give. It. To. Me. Not. Now. But RIGHT NOW.

It's a Hal Wilner Disney comp

sound like some gabbagoul

Ooh!

That rhythm and accompaniment love it on the Waits. Similar to the Latin Playboys production sounds. Clangingn banging, Chamberlin or Mellotron string sounds. Perfect

Kazoo tah YOU

I just now realized Tom Waits has something do to with Captain Beefheart

Yup! Chad Blake and Mitchell Froom from Latin Playboys on that Waits track. No wonder. Optigan and Chamberlain together on one track. Quirk instrument heaven.

Very much like the opening track sound on Latin Playboys rekkid. Tchad Blake involved with both

Plus Waits mainstays Marc Ribot and Larry Taylor. That is a studio band and a half

Hollywood FL Nightmare AmIRight?! 👻

That Latin Playboys record is wonderful. Gets even better listening after 12am-1am ish..

Thunderclap Newman! Accidents was one of those songs the DJ would play when they needed to answer the call… RIP guitarist Jimmy McCulloch, who got to stretch out a bit on this one.

And I see that Willner record has Ken Nordine and Bill Frisell on track 1 medley 1st bit. Some cool parts on that cd

Whiskey in pocket...

I found Stay Awake on cassette in a rack at a drugstore for a dollar or two. Had no idea what I had until I got it home and played it for the first time!

Cool Pic! That British salute is either very cool or they are sayin' don't shoot in northern Ireland.

RORY! YEAH!

Warshateria! 🧺 🎸 Wooo!

One o the greats on the guit

Put the Hammer down!

Back from when guitars were made by men for men. LOL

Awww, JEFF BECK 💔❤️

fortepiano

awesome

I love this Gong with Holdsworth

Expresso is my fave

OMG, I still know all the modulations.

Great selections to start the show, DJ Wilbo!

Thanks, and to close out blues /prog hour, A Tab In The Ocean!

Put a tap on the ocean. Maybe people will get ideas.

Wait, there’s a prog hour?

@ǝʌɐꓷ, somebody's gotta a count for it. Blame it on prog.

I’ll have a Sarsaparilla in the Tub #BathBoy Is it real, or just deception?

It's Brand X Sarsaparilla for sure.

Big love for the GONG

Evidently there is an X in Expresso

It's 1972 again. SCHWEWWWWW!

Yeah, they are mostly dead these days.

I seen these guys for 2 bucks

Bravo on that 1st hour there! Wilbo is on it

Bravo! 👏👏👏

Arrowsmith was .96 cents

Now tickets are $296.00

I'm glad I was first in line but the cramps were better

WestSiiidddeee!

@Billy O'Damit, I caught Steven Stills at the Steamboat on 6th street in Austin back in the day for five US dollars..

Too Cool

Billy O’Damit went to some awesome shows!

I been to them all east and west

Why remove a pool?!?

Tower theater in Philly Palladium in Hollywood

The Cramps have eyeballs for dials. Is that a good thing? Idunno.

The cramps eat eyeballs for treats. Damce to the Ultra Twist

I 've seen Rory Gallagher at the 250 seat Roxy theater in North hampton Pa. Tooo good!

Crest of a Wave is monster from Rory

The Boom town Rats did a free show inside Fredericks of Hollywood during rush hour

Nice Billy O'Damit. I bet you have a few cool ticket recipts.

I just scream at the sun all day and I bark at the Moon all night

Oh I've heard many stories of people just straight up walking their dogs while in the screening chat room

up his nostrils! L0LZ

Geez

I cant believe you commented on my concert tickets. I have them all except most of the punk ones they didnt give stubs back at those shows.

Some favourite chat complaints are from BillyO’Damit! Glad to see you happy here today! Cheers!

I was able to get out of selection last year entirely because I told them that I work night shifts

yeah, I just got evicted on fri 13 I dont know what else to think

Gotta go now Kids it's been fun

Take good care, BillyO’Damit!

Be safe, be warm Billy

Take it easy, guy!

People pay good green money for vintage concert tickets! 🎫

he ain't heavy...he's my brother!

1️⃣9️⃣8️⃣4️⃣ 💙

this playlist is not gonna update itself

and that’s sad 😢

L0LZ

NoMeansNo‼️

Pay good green money for vintage concert tickets? I will take a fools money any day. They never got even see the show? Some of those are still in Wallet! LOL Another cash form! love it.

Gyptocurrency

Haha

😂

Wait, wait... Can we sell replicas legally on EBay? Lets get rich as fuck if so.

THE GERALDINE FIBBERS❣️

now im going down the ebay rabbithole

wow https://tinyurl.com/yt6faw62

This is so so so good

I love this Spanish finger point on guitar.

¡Me Encanta!

Brazilian ya

Guitarra yah

Belo!

I have spent my whole life dying, but somehow I always point back to guitars.

Pics of Egberto on search come up showing him playing one of those extended 10 or more string nylons (not just doubled like a 12 string with pairs etc but a big wide neck w the extra strings)

Finger that out.

This is amazing

And not "floating" like a harp guitar either. The neck is that wide. Big big stretch of fingers to get to the thick low bass strings ha

he must have big hands.

"I got big arms cuz I drum, right? " - Scott Thompson

Those strings must be so touchy nice. Like a stick.

Jerry Seinfeld "she had man-hands"

Been a while since I heard Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet. Used to pop up on the wprb playlists (theme song from Kids in the Hall and many more songs)

Oh yea Mok, Size dozen't matter is a myth.

Ya he has to release the thumb from back of the neck to be able to fret the low strings on that type of guitar

Oh shit Brian, I really do believe a guitar should be crafted to the player. That is rather spot on.

Any instrument really.

Me, I don't worry at all. You could say I'm fretless...

You dog you!

? Not sure... ? Other people play those wide neck instruments too not just crafted for him. That's just the way to extend one's reach. Anyone could do it really

Yea, now get a cheap build. Not so much.

ah hammonda

Those proggy metal players have the electric versions of that type of thing too (Haken etc). Wide neck extra strings (7, 8, 9, 10 etc)

Yea the baritones are nice.

I am 6 foot four inches tall and love a longer fretboard.

Yes those too. Another type. The "Bajo Sexto" and the like

The Tex-Mex bands love them. Not the same as tuning down a regular guitar. That extended scale neck and the thicker gauge strings really make the diff

howdy, wilbo! i am coming on after you:) digging all this great stuff, btw. love that stay awake comp.

Meters! Rejuvenation!

Intonation is the boss there. You need other insturments in your set.

Esoterica! Cool!

This one is chock full of good songs

hey bri, hey roffle!

Happy New Year Eso! Stuck my head into Revilla yesterday, they've got TONS of soundtracks, just an FYI

... 'and or pocket? In that pocket all night long

Now i gotta look up that "15 minutes.." comedian that used to do the "Hand or pocket?!" routine... always forget his name

"Doctored for 'Super - Stereo ' t.m. "

sweet, wilbo! will check that out. and happy new year!

DO THE DANCING IN YOUR HEAD

LET THEME FROM A SYMPHONY TAKE OVER EVERYONE'S BRAINS

@Dan Ruccia my final destination for sure.

GCS! Slap happy Larry.

Thick stew today on the Tues afternoon

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Hey! There we are!

Cheeseburger Cheeseburger Cheeseburger

GANG OF FOUR 💝

It and Don Cherry's Brown Rice are the best jazz records of the 70s

Thoroughly enjoying all these swell selections! Big cheers, DJ Wilbo!

MX-80!

ELVIS PRESLEY 🕺🏻❤️‍🔥👑

@ Wilbo (host) Tremendous show today, thanks. And we're all so glad you survived The Invasion of the Pool Eradication Creatures !!! :-0

@MrMalcontent No Coke, Petsi. Petsi, Petsi, Petsi.

EEP!

Steer Clear of The Skidsteers, I always say...

Eeep! Op! Ork! Ah Ah!

@ ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 Yeah, and it's a killer Presley track I'd never before heard. The Paul Oakenfold remix is formidable, now I'm keen to hear the Elvis original as well.

Originally by Jet Screamer!

He's all the rage at Orbit High School I hear

also luv ‘A Little Less Conversation’❣️

VIOLENT FEMMES 🤎

Just listened to Ocean's Eleven soundtrack this weekend (Little Less Convo on that)

Oh no. It’s Ted Nugent.

Clarification Update: also luv ELVIS ❤️‍🔥 ‘A Little Less Conversation’❣️ with and without JUNKIE XL 💙

@Brian D - Baby! Baby! Baby! Ah Ah Ah!

Rather brilliant stuff Dan. Thanks a bunch

Amboy Dukes bass player is pretty hyperactive on that song. Especially since the bass was pretty much inaudible on 1960s radios… 📻

JOHNNY CASH 🖤🖤🖤

Johnny Cash.

Thank you for the show Wilbo!

Great shakes today Wilbo!

Well done, DJ Wilbo! Many thanks & kind regards!

Stefan not only an ace guitar player but creator of a ton of gtr instructional books, videos, recordings.

Or Wilbo, you get it.

@Brian D, ear training never hurt no one as far as I can tell. But I have seen mistakes at Paul Hall in Julliard.

I wanna hear erythang in the Wilbo Library

Have a good'n

😵‍💫 the acid test

I put the demental in fundamental

Go The Mustang Sally

Thanks everybody! I survived the pool deconstruction

Byeeeee
