hello everyone! and welcome to this wonderful new hour slot~

Ready for some horse meat

honestly even that sounds appetizing on an empty stomach LOL

(not really)

Haha almost

I hear their fat is yellow, like a human..

it's so funny because that skit is from one of my favorite recent artists, Stabscotch, and i had no idea lol

oh no...

I was wondering what that was from lol, it's pretty good. And yeah.. it's eaten in France I think ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Have we talked about wondershowzen yet?

why am i not surprised loll how has the snow been in philly?

and no we havent!

but now who is going to play HIGH RISE at 10AM?

Heavy! There's a lot, it's cold, but maybe I'll get out to walk around..

Haha agreed beaux!

But you've seen it right? Pffr - Great show, there's a bit on a hot dog factory and dog meat

hi beaux! i hope someone continues the legacy in my absence

and of course! i wanted to include a nice piece from the show on the playlist

any recommendations? love the puppet there

Hi rosasolis dream!

hi bo! hope you're having a great evening

This is the clip i was talking about if you haven't seen ithttps://vimeo.com/4394789

And I have really been liking Midori lately, thanks for introducing that one

LOL i just started watching it and im dying, this show was a treasure

bit sad i was a little late to see it on air

and that's great to hear!! i also just re-discovered them last month so they've been on heavy repeat

Yes, and improving by the song thank you :-)

that's great to hear! as always, everyone is more than welcome to share any requests recommendations

Haha well glad to have provided some lols , if you haven't seen all of the show it's one of their best. Only two seasons, and then they kind of let the show implode on itself..

And yeah great set, looking forward to hearing your selections for a nightly set

How about some Machine Gun Elephant from circa 1997?

I have only seen clips, mostly the ones that are viral or featuring the blue puppet hahah but im going to try to watch it asap!

and ooh Bo I'm liking the sound of this band already, japanese garage rock!! let me look through some songs

Absolutely!

okay that Chicken Zombies album has some quite fun cuts on it

Fire away!

True Sons Of Thunder are from Memphis TN.

yeah I knew they weren't from boston! confused them with the band, life's question

here's that lovely Thee Michelle Gun Elephant

BRILLIANT!!! I left out "Thee" my bad, thank you, I LOVE this song!

And Michelle LOL!

LOL it's okay i figured as much! i feel like machine gun would have made more sense haha

glad i chose the right one!!

Probably :)

Can you guess how they came up with the name, it's fairly obvious?

i feel like they must have misspelled or misappropriated a different band's name or something!

Very good guess, it was the difficulty in pronouncing Machine Gun Etiquette by The Damned apparently but I love their name.

honestly i feel like that could be the only reasoning for such a fun, unique name!

it's crazy to me for some reason how it seems they're much more popular in japan than elsewhere

loving these last few trax!

glad to hear that jim!

gotta couple more hardcore ones i think

The music Bizz is somewhat nuts

WOW!!!

for sure, no way to predict how it ever goes.. and yeah it's getting loud!! :)

rosasolis have you heard of Bo Ningen? And no, that's got nothing to do with this Bo?

I think i've seen them in a compilation for japanese noise music somewhere! haven't listened to any of their albums tho, any that stand out?

Stand out? DO THEY EVER!

wow im excited to check them out!! line the wall looks dope

Daikaisei ...Throwing you in at the deep end.

oh wow im super looking forward to this!

Fantastic!

how did you first hear about them?

Over in my homeland Ireland on the radio

must be the pinnacle of psychic tv (in my book)

agreed, it is the one track I always return to!

and wow Bo that's great that you had some awesome radio shows back home

Well, I was weened on John Peel so its all his fault ;-)

lucky! guess I was happy to have access to so many incredible Peel Sessions on vinyl at the time. Pre web radio!

oh wow yeah that's the best of the best! any live recordings that stuck with either of you? i think i have a henry cow copy somewhere

i worked in a record store, so we previewed everything! Ones that stick out are Birthday Party, Nico, Joy Division. Just love any sort of alternate take...

Jimbeaux, on vinyl? I can't remember seeing those in the record shops but I am old.

yep, i still have the Birthday Party and Nico ones.

Those are precious records Jimbeaux

birthday party!! i imagine that was fun.. gosh i'm surprised he never got the captain and magic band there

oh gosh, that tells me I may be "older" :)

BBC and Peel live archives are massive, so I bet there's a Beefheart at BBC

He loved Beefheart for sure from back in his radio days spent in California

when he start doing shows...early 70s?

i think so! or maybe late 60s.. but i think he was widely established by the 70s

at least if the documentary i saw was right hehe

In England? Prob '72-'73 yep

dang love parson sound, trad gras och stenar, related swedish freakout bangers

That Parson Sound was special!

Here for the killer jams, but also here to find out what record store Jimbeaux worked in.

i've actually never listened to the whole cd cause the parson sound release is over 2 hours but its sooo good

hi mike! yeah im interested too

It was like the PREX of Nebraska..."Pickles"!

thank you for alleviating our Freeform Pathogen withdrawal!

Hi Mike the elusive one

rosasolis dream, that's a lengthy listen!

that's an amazing name for a record store! tho i do admit i don't like pickles hahaah

it is! but i imagine a lovely record to have in the car, during road trips

Like going to Nebraska?

Ahh, the PREX of Nebraska. Will have to put that one on my list!

this was 30 yrs ago. free tix to shows, most of the employees were in bands, fun stuff. they did a huge shadow business of rarities that never hit the floor, plus boots, etc. Went out of business, tho.

that's so unfortunate.. i remember a couple years ago there was just a bunch of record stores closing throughout the country

Nice. Sounds like the place I worked in Trenton (also 30 years ago.) Was mostly a mailorder gig, but they had a shopfront in Hamilton Square where I would sit blasting music and huffing Parliaments for eight hours a day, while selling Bad Brains/Rollins Band tix to local criminal-types.

Nice! This was a smoking/drinking job, too. We used to deal with Scorpio dist which is weirdly still in operation. I live nearby!

lol local criminal types, they were getting good gigs with those tickets tho haha

drinking on the job?!

there was a fluid transition to nearby bars :)

Oh god, Scorpio! Yeah, I've heard they still have a warehouse in Trenton somewhere.

right near Grounds for Sculpture. saw it one day and made the connection back to the record store.

All those local criminal types are probably still listening to PRB.

they wish they were this kewl

at least they have decent taste! haha

Truth. Anyway, I gotta peace out for now. Thanks for the great show tonight! Hope to see you weirdos back in the ring for my new timeslot on Wednesday nights!

(And RIP Sophie.)

later mike!

See ya hump day Mike!

thanks for stopping by Mike always appreciate it!

loll hump day

Yes hump day!

i actually never knew why it was called that!!

i feel like the gears are turning in my head now tho, like when i guess michelle elephant gun's name haha

Heheh! I really screwed that one up :-? I guess cos it's mid week but ..

that's what i think! like a camel's hump is in the middle... wednesday is the middle of the week

it all makes sense now! lol i will have to use it

LOL! Yeah why not

hi! really vibing with the whole playlist rn

thanks grady!! always appreciate everyone listening

actually having the biggest problem with my mic now..

Great show rosasolis, stay safe n well.

thanks so much Bo! great to have you and stay warm!

thx rosasolis! later bo

thanks jim as always!

Night Jimbeaux
