Destroyer! Love Dan Bejar

It was so hard picking just one Dan Bejar song. Almost went with one of his New Pornos tunes

@Dan Ruccia - while we’re on the Dan’s set- was wondering if you know Dan Bern? You might like his sing Jerusalem.

Hey Gautham! I don't know Dan Bern. Will have to check it out

ABBA reunion album from 2021 has a song titled Keep an Eye on Dan. Just remembered... heard it on Dan Buskirk's show that year.

Dan Bern doing Jerusalem at the Philly Folk Fest in late 1990s was a big EYE OPENING highlight. Wow. Funny guy. Laughed like crazy during his set. Did not hear about him for a while then noticed he wrote or co wrote some songs from the Dewey Cox Walk Hard movie

Another great Daniel Lanois project i loved was Black Dub. Trixie Whitley on vocals. Really liked the sound they got on that one time only lp.

I believe AC Newman said it "BAY-har" when he mentioned Dan Bejar on stage. Seems to be confirmed on online sources , interviews, intros etc

Yeah definitely BAY-har now that I read more. Father is Spanish

Ahhh. Excellent. Now we know!

Reminders of Mickey Sprawl show w the DOOM!

love DOOM in the morning

BIG LOVE TO THE ONE AND ONLY MAD VILLAIN MF DOOM

The greatest of all musical Daniels

that's a great observation 2nd best musical Dan ;)

3030 yes yes yes

And Yes!!

You're the best, Dan.

Nice Aphrodite's Child sample right there!

I always wondered what that sample was. A good one!

Caribouuuuuu

I was doing a clean out of my records recently and this one was briefly on the chopping block until I remembered that it is, in fact, awesome

I can't believe you would ever consider putting Caribou on The chopping block. The only time that's permissible is if it's the bed of winter and that's the only food you have

I know. It was silly and I was being overzealous

Incomprehensible 🤣

FLOW DANIEL

I bet he only lets his mom call him that

💣💣💣💣💣💣💣💣

I came from a thing where somebody on Twitter called him that and he thought it was the funniest thing

hahahaha

One of the best grime voices in the biz

Gremlins repped

That might have been the best station ID I ever heard

Not the Hull Kogan gremlins 🤣

All goblins are secretly Dans

But not all Dans are goblins

There are no Dans in Goblin, however

Dan sounds like my kind of guy

Happy birthday Bob Marley!

Such a good Daniel Johnson rendition!

i guess this is thie 3rd best musical dan..

Johnston is so precious

Danny Whitten!

omg sorry.. just noticing all the musical dans now haha

Almost played the Crazy Horse version of this, but this version is so much more fun

Dan Fogelberg?

Oh yeah, forgot about him. I'll be honest that I don't really know his stuff (beyond whatever showed up on classic rock radio in the late 90s)

lol ...Danny and The Juniors.

Daniels dans le playlist ce matin 💯

Hey Christine!

Really dug that Dan Melchior. Not familiar that album, I’ll have to check that one out.

One of my favorites of his Das Menace albums. Not sure if it's in print physically, but I know it's on Bandcamp

Hey Dan...Sounding good!

Christmas for the Crowd is the only one from Das Menace I have. Constantly finding albums of his I haven’t heard yet, but that’s Melchior.

Crows*

There are like 4 or 5 more Das Menace albums, so you are in for a treat!

Damn good Dan show! Thanks!

Cheers, Dan

We're dan-dan-dancin'!

Thanks for listening y'all! Hooray for the new schedule!

Happy birthday, Greg Lyon! (Sorry, that's my muscle memory reflex for this song.)

LOL!

I was actually in the room for that (us getting a musical telegram to sing this song for Greg on his birthday in 2003 (?). The musical telegram guy was dressed as a clown. It was incredible.)

For reference: https://www.wprbhistory.org/singing-telegram-does-hip-priest-by-the-fall/

So glad there was no Danny Bonnaducci

Thanks Dan!

Oh my god Mike
