"Politicians In My Eyes" by Death. Jon Solomon Wed Nov 27 with Jon Solomon on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

HAPPY THANKSGIViNG EVE!

Happy penultimate day!

Enjoyed the Bill Orcutt show by the by. Talked to his bass player and for a bit after the show and bought a t-shirt from the opening band. Nice folks.

Happy Day Before Turkey - yo where you be Jon?

Hello! We are good to go.

ahh there you are

La radio es tu amiga

A weird ghost in the machine during that transition, since resolved.

Greetings and salutations to all from the Pacific rim

Nice radio you have here.

Hello hello hello hello!

Weirdo ghosts have a way of showing up.

@Jon..since Christmas and start of Hanukkah fall on the same day what can we expect musically from you ?

Catch up Jon, I haven't had a shower all week!

I thought first night was the 26th?

¡Hola Jon! ¡Porfavor no matas la radio esta noche!

i have first night of hanukkah as the 26th. but I'm not a very good jew.

Ha, Tyler.

Hanukkah starts at sundown on 12/25 and I expect I'll do an All-Hanukkah Show...a couple days into the holiday.

Ok thanks…will pencil in on calender

see? not a very good jew. the 25th it is! socks and latkes for everyone!

Once I know when, I will be sure to alert y'all.

Wow, you guys have a Calendar! So cool!

Speaking as an almost senior , I need one

Roffle, psyched you got to the show.

Heard this one on Lili's show, had to borrow it for mine...

Hola Rob!

like this alot - thought it was Fela - had to come check the compoopoo

It's literally two stops away on the EL line, Jerry's on Front is right there when you get off the station. Fantastic! Thank you so much!

I like this Funmilayo Afrobeat Orquestra! hello Jon! I picked up a Snaildartha t shirt this week :)

Turns out it is originally by Fela, but works well as a stand-alone too!

Amazing, Richard.

great music for cooking our sides (for tomorrow) to!

What you got cookin'?

Kale & Collards - vegan - our bro in law is vegan. And vegan stuffing. but we

're still having a turkey!

I love stuffing. stuffing and gravy. i could make a meal of that

Excellent all around.

what's your favorite side?

I waited in a shockingly long line this morning to pick up two pies we pre-ordered in advance. Felt like there should be fresh Jordans at the front of the line the way people were queued down the block and around the corner.

what kinda pies? love me some pumpkin. and I will put that sides question to the chat as well - favorite Tgiving sidedish. in case anyone wants to play along -

I enjoy a bunch of roasted vegetables as a quality side.

Pies I picked up: Purple sweet potato and lemon yuzu icebox. My wife will also make her famous chocolate pumpkin tart to go with said pies.

i'm liking the sound of famous choco-pumpkin tart

It is very, very good. I will find the recipe.

Such talk! Dinner prepping time! you guys are making me hungry.

I think this is basically it? - https://www.citymarket.coop/recipe/pumpkin-chocolate-tart

Roffle, I did have to get an Emergency Hoagie before I drove home last week because of all the tasty talk.

lemon yuzu icebox (yoyo records, 1998)

That's how you make an entrance, people.

@DJ Tenderloin…love roasted sweet potatoes. Make then throughout the year but on turkey day add almonds onion and a small bit of amaretto…not a marshmallow in sight

Yeah, I get triggered to cook around here rather often Jon. lol

Steamed persimmon pudding. Something like this :

https://www.food.com/recipe/persimmon-steamed-english-pudding-265887

@CR - not a marshmallow in sight - Ha! sounds good. I love stuffing. love love love.

you and your never ending songs...

@AC - now that's a side!

Persimmon is simply the best fruit if you catch it at the ripe moment.

Admittedly more of a dessert.

No rules on Thanksgiving, Andrew!

Heya Chris!

As long as they keep putting out these CAN live records, I'll keep playing these CAN live records!

because you CAN. sorry

Because you can!

There with ya Tenderloin. lol

jinx - 1 - 2 3- 4- 5- - you owe me 5 cokes!

Ha!

:)

jinx - 1 - 2 3- 4- 5- - you owe me 5 cokes - realizing now this may be both an age and regional thing - from when i was a kid. anyone remember this?

It was on SNL in the early / mid 1980s so that probably spread to a national thing.

In the mid-west that would pop for sure.

it was on SNL cuz it was a thing when I was a kid! we said that when we were like 10 and I'm 58

from Maryland - DC area - perhaps lots of kids did this.

the important thing here is that Roffle owes me 5 cokes! Ha!

I'm good for it Tenderloin! One short of a six-pack is my thing.

We shall jinx again I'm sure and then I'll just owe it back to ya! cheers

YES MAHN DO YOU HAVE THE CAN JAM MAN

All good. It's the Rhythm of life Sir Tenderloin. Many cokes abound.

There should be a Jon Solomon Fan cruise that goes to Brazil, Australia, New Zealand and Haledon.

Jon I am making gumbo and am unstoppable, champ. Like an overdriven bass on an Albino-engineered song. A rhino in the kitchen.

You all are in fine form.

MS, did you watch any of the street-naming?

I have not. I am remiss! But I heard about it and it warmed the ol' heart cockles.

I recommend it. Kim Deal's words were especially nice.

I always return to Dude Incredible side one, dude. It's perfect. Kim Deal! I saw them Pixies back in the day, late 1980s. The heroin days (them).

Merriam-Webster states that the word “jinx” dates back to 1902.

Then there’s this from 1958: https://hanna-barbera.fandom.com/wiki/Mr._Jinks

Señor Jinks!

Well-done, David.

I always appreciated that early Pixies sets were in alphabetical order. But boy were they disappointingly dull when I saw them around then, Matt.

Have t repost this gem from TAndy. Sent it to Ahab too. https://imgchest.com/p/md7oexegd4p

ok - i'm out - off to deep south philly - well, below Snyder - some friends have rented a house for thanksgiving cuz theirs is too small to cook in! is this a thing? maybe. happy night before! when I was young this was a big bar night, still is I guess. everyone have a great thanksgiving!

Jon I agree, early 90s Pixies didnt grab me much live, but in retrospect I sure wish I'd paid better attention.

Wave of Mutilation was always my Pixies jam back then. Has aged well.

Pixie, of course, was one of those miserable meeses that Jinks hated to pieces.

Lol David S

Naturally.

This record on the other hand, captivating!

I think Surfer Rosa is my favorite Pixies record?

Just made a strawberry-banana smoothie. Now I'm looking at what I also was going to cook for dinner questioning if there is an immediate need. The back burner has arrived.

I dated a girl who looked A LOT like Kim Deal; tragically, it ended, nearly fatally (for me, anyway)

kim deal is so good

I went to Syracuse by train for a girl who looked like Kim Deal. As one did in 1989.

Randy M lucky!

Good choice, Rob.

Last record Steve Albini worked on, is that right?

Randy, I actually know the answer to this.

The OG DEATH !

I knew you would, Jon

I used to dress up like Kim Deal for a goof when I lived in Syracuse

The last full album SA recorded was the next Mint Mile album (recorded in France as part of a hands-on symposium for aspiring engineers).

He died in the middle of a session for the forthcoming FACS album. Finished his work, went home, dropped dead. The band finished the record with a different engineer two days later.

ah I knew it was an M band

"Loud-QUIET-Loud" doc is highly recommended

FACS that's right. Facts.

Patrick, are YOU who I watched Apocalypse Now and stole a street sign with??!?

Lol

i'll never tell. but don't get your Pod EP appraised

NEVER GET OUT OF THE BOAT

what kind of street sign and where is it now?

I think it was a STOP sign. We carried it back to her house in the snow. I'd guess it is still in Syracuse.

Apocalypse Now is good bro bond

We never made it to Rehoboth Beach to check out Gidgets Gadgets and Blue Monkey that Randy Marthins mentioned a few weeks ago. Maybe we'll make it out there next month

I'm going to spoil my favorite guest stars on Detroiters: The Fat Boys reviving their characters from their movie Disorderlies

I enjoyed Apocalypse Now with extreme prejudice.

yep, Moped

boo

I deserved that.

@Jon, did you make it down to DC to see Velocity Girl?

Hiya JS! Vicky and I are tuning in and ensuring that a houseful of kids is puzzled over what is playing on the hifi.

@ Jon Solomon 🐧 (host) A "Mal-Tease Falcon"? Ohhhhhhhh ... Please don't talk about the Death of Humor, that's the Rub!

Rob, alas no. Wish I had. Heard great reports.

Thank you, Richard. I'll be here all night!

Jeff! Vicky!

hey now. is there a theme for the requests or just good segues?

Hifi? Isn't that a contraction for stereo?

No theme, Dale.

cool! how about some johnny hallyday?

'voyage au pays des vivants' with the faces on backup...

I can't promise I'll have time for it given what I've got slotted but we shall see...

groooooovvvvyyyyy

no problem..i know i'm late to the party.

A party, it is.

this really reminds me of Erik Carlson's guitar playing Jon

I bet Joshua would take that as a big compliment. There's a part that reminds me of another song but I can't quite place which one...

Name your price download, linked in the playlist.

hello, jon! it really is the prelude to the 25-hour show. I'm excited.

@Jon, we were supposed to be out of town. But then my wife got sick so we stayed in town, and of course didn't go to see Velocity Girl

Hope she is on the mend.

Jen! Hello!

Think about the one Thanksgiving we spent together fondly (though there may have been more than one over the years who knows).

we need more of those. :)

Songs sounds like it would be right at home on the Ween country album

Jon there's a song called White Electric from the album of ours with the same title that has a really long outro coda thing that's all Erik and that song reminded me of it

This is Shakira doing the Tetris theme for series 1 Gameboy

I'll have to refresh my memory, Chris.

Pat, wait until you hear the cover of Personal Jesus I can't wait to play next week!

nice

good evening

Is that the Variety from Texas? I saw them in New Brunswick two Thursdays ago.

thanks for providing the soundtrack for my drive to Philly to see Dead Bob

my wife was just in hamilton a couple weeks ago to see dead bob. wore her no means no tee shirt....

Wish I could be there Andrew, but I'm here on the radio!

David, the same Variety! Wanted to get to the show you went to but it was during a very hectic week on this end.

Dale, I'm guessing Ontario not New Jersey?

yes, she was up in toronto.

Dead Bob! @andrew, have fun

Where is the show, Andrew?

Good for you, Dr Solomon. Out music performed and nicely executed by U Arts practitioners.. solid work and completely caught us by surprise here in downtown Hopewell

Glad you could catch it, Mike. Happy Thanksgiving Eve!

Very happy with the sound quality on this one, if I'm allowed to say such a thing about a session I engineered.

Happy Thanksgiving Jon & everyone!

We enjoyed your show tonight, Jon!

everyone loves a cavalcade of all stars!

joyce dewitt, peter lemonjello....

Those are good gets!

Jumping on briefly to wish a happy Thanksgiving to all!

The same to you and yours, Mary!

(been busy fighting with a butternut bisque and a cranberry curd.)

Good luck!!

Jon, I'm sure like many, I am thankful for you show, and I just want to say that here!

Another good one! Thanks Jon

NO YOU ARE, MARY!

thanks for the sounds!

Great stuff tonight Jon, appreciate the tunes

awesome sounds and happy thanksgiving

Bye!
