6:14 PM, March 12th, 2022

Hi Steve. Here from the beginning.

6:17 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Hi Dave!

6:20 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Ignore my 6:40 (0:40 in On Demand) comment about Robin Kenyatta playing flute... he's doing that on the album cover, but on the track we heard, saxophone...

6:40 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
lots of things can be done faster'n'louder, but not everything needs to be

6:52 PM, March 12th, 2022
mikep
hey! the Eric Cheneaux sounded inspirationally surreal in this time, and beat the inty. super chunk right now?

6:56 PM, March 12th, 2022
m
I got to slow down thanks

6:56 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
mike p, superchunk then, yes, but also coming right up next!

6:56 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
I have to admit to an about-face on Guided By Voices... always thought there was too much dross among their recorded output, symptomatic of releasing everything they recorded... of late it seems more of everything they record is worth listening to.

6:59 PM, March 12th, 2022
Wally
Really enjoying this Guided By Voices song 👏

7:00 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steffi in Lowertown
Luv the Pinkmountaintops

7:08 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Hi Steffi! Me, too... they're coming to town in the coming months

7:11 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
No, that The Living track mentioned at 7:20 (1:20 in On Demand) was in fact NOT in the mix

7:21 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
... and I neglected to announce the Minor Threat tune at 6:58 PM ():58 in On Demand)...

7:22 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
...those two glitches cancel each other out... heh heh

7:23 PM, March 12th, 2022
TonyP
"Really BIG show" going on here tonight!

7:25 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
EC wrote the original Shipbuilding, but I'm very partial to Robert Wyatt's version

7:25 PM, March 12th, 2022
Tony
Robert and June, definitely 2 giants of the scene.

7:27 PM, March 12th, 2022
Wally
June Tabor's version is quite good 👍

7:28 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Hi Tony -- would love to see/hear the two of them together on the same stage

7:29 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
... and Thanks Tony, glad you're enjoying

7:29 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steffi in Lowertown
cool news about Pinkmountaintops coming to town. ... I hope they bring the entire band this time.

7:36 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
fingers crossed, S

7:38 PM, March 12th, 2022
Dave JC
Apparently Bowie was partial to the Robert Wyatts version, as I am, but that might be my Canterbury Scene bias. However, Costello's version is better than I remembered. Both good basically.

7:39 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steffi in Lowertown
they're gonna play the Rainbow Bistro?? I thought that place was done.

7:39 PM, March 12th, 2022
Dave JC.
And June Taylor version is pretty good also.

7:41 PM, March 12th, 2022

7:42 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Resurrected, S... actually looking forward to going there, it's easily been 20+ years since I last went

7:42 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Dave, I share your Canterbury Bias... and as for Declan McManus' original, I'll grant you that

7:46 PM, March 12th, 2022
Heavy Ben
Hey Steve

7:48 PM, March 12th, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Hey Ben, what do you and Chris have up your sleeve for tonight's Heavy Friends?

7:50 PM, March 12th, 2022
TonyP
' Declan McManus'... sounds much more melodic, ah well, that's show biz.

7:51 PM, March 12th, 2022
M
