Good morning, WPRB-land! Begin radio transmission.

Good groggy morning, Dan. Great segue from the last track of the previous show

Blast back to great 2000s WPRB memories here

This was totally *the* song of summer 2002

Early aughts Rapture is a bold opening volley. I must quickly grow a cop moustache and unlock my penny farthing for maximum '03 Brooklyn-electroclash vibes.

Aye. Out of the Races and Onto the Tracks was year before wprb fave

I also remember going to a radio friend's wedding at some point in the late aughts, and we put this on when we wanted to clear all the olds off the dance floor

Grab me some rust color corduroy pants while yer there Mike. They stole that clothing item from me the h-words of that era

Good morning Dan! Good morning all!

Hey Parr!

That was more jarring a transition than I expected

Super into this Zomes record. They're new to me, but I love me some good RenFaire dirges.

Zomes=Asa from Lungfish

This songs makes me want to watch The Wicker Man.

Wow! Did not know about the Lungfish connection. Makes perfect sense now that you've revealed that detail!

They do the ritual very well

Great one here

Just read Steve Hanley's book last month

How was it?

Great book! A person who knows the Fall maybe 2nd best next to MES

Bed music today is killer

Fripp & Eno FTW

I thought of this Ryley Walker song the other day but oddly enough didn’t play the album at home. And now you’re playing this specific song.

It's a great one! Randomly popped into my head the other day and of course I had to play it

Maybe we’re on a same plane or something. Vibes, right?

Totally!

It's funny, when I first heard this record, I was kinda down on this particular song. But over the years, I've come to believe it's maybe the best on that record

Ya the Ryley is nice!

This song goes out to all the Kens #kenough

It's also one of the most vicious, unfortunate fade outs I've ever heard. I want that raveup to keep going for another few minutes

My LP of that Walker album is mislabeled. B side label on the A side, etc. I think it’s still my favorite of his, the one after being a close second.

Saw Human Adult Band at a tiny art gallery in Queen Village a couple years ago. Way more into this studio cut than their set that night. Haha

This song goes so hard

Hat tip to Jon Solomon who played something else by GHOLD last week that had me totally intrigued

I have I hat yet I must tip

*tips cranium* ... Ouch.

This is so good to hear after finishing up my yearly physicsl

That was a wild ride

Watching the frequency graph for this piece is wild

hey now. had my ears on entire show.....i wonder if mike pinder knew of this when he did the keyboards for 'in the beginning' on 'on the threshold of a dream.'

Hey Dale! It's possible, but I honestly have no idea. It's unclear how much Pade's music circulated in Europe in the 60s and 70s

Loved that a lot

Hi Dan! Good morning folks. Cool sounds this morning, only missing an air raid klaxon. :)

Thank you very much for the music Dan

Thanks for listening, everyone!

Einar from Sugarcubes figures into the Steve Hanley book on the Fall. Important in getting booking and all things punk in Iceland.
