Greetings on this special Weds edition of the the show!

Howdy! Fun start

haha i actually did guess the theme from yesterday clue : wasn’t that hard after all :)

haha nice! very astute of ya

Ha googling copiers and finding their music took a few tries

Bands and SEO do not always get along

Also, for as much as I love Bandcamp, their search algorithm could really use some fine tuning

@dude do u use shazam ? that’s how I’ve created my digital catalog of prb music / i probably started almost 1 year ago when it was all robot 🤖 play for around 6 weeks

Yeah not perfect, adding band camp does always help, I primarily listen on YouTube which @mark yeah I do use Google's Shazam feature which is nice , but try and store everything in my YouTube history which isn't perfect for digging back but helps keep it somewhere. I want to organize better for sure. Is Shazam searchable?

Shazam's gotten better over the years, now it creates a visual backlog of items that youve scanned, not sure if its searchable though

Bandcamp has been my Go-To for keeping track of releases

yes shazam has an artist search feature that brings up what u shazam & their associated music / i would guess shazam recognizes about 95% Of my prb shazam attempts

there’s kinda complicated way to export shazam catalog into a database for further search queries/ sorts

it misidentify space opera but picked up this one & cold foamers

typo there haha, meant to say Oh! Surprised it got Cold Foamers thats cool

Space Operas

Space Operas* one of those that hasnt gotten a reissue, but really deserves one. OG copies will still only run you >$50

3 hours from pupster woo hoo

A WPRB Puppathon!

Puppa's in the house (no pizza though)

i probably was the first to shazam cold foamers/ it showed no previous fyi /

deirdre’s show from my experience gives their search the hardest test !

Deirdre is excellent in the realm of the esoteric and non-Shazamable soundverse

haha pup not too shabby or rest of prb! not too many baked-in Sonic muffins:)

CAN!

yes we CAN

hey pup! i think we met in breakout rooms at the wprb all station meeting this past weekend -- loving the music

Yes we did! Thanks for tuning in man

Thx.just ordered Hookey from band camp

Vinyl for 5 bucks

hell yeah, thats a deal!

darn missed the jim Sullivan / can we reopen the discussion of his disappearance- can u tune that doc in on the tv cart u just wheeled in ? :)

Nice set, DJ Pup!

If that is a documentary that currently exists please direct me to it, if it doesn't exist please make it lmao

thanks Christine! appreciate it :)

haha i May have to create one / there’s a good NYT article from a couple of years ago out there

oh word I'll have to check that out nice

they start by calling him a character from a pynchon or delillo novel :) what an aptly named album!

definitely "believed" haha, helps add to the mystery too

there are some you tube vids too that I’m going to watch tonite/ thanks for sending me down this rabbit 🐇 hole ;)

my pleasure! its a fun story

Very groovy tunes pup!!!

thank you!

what a fun 'n' catchy Fall song... enjoying the show. and the variety.

great show / hope all the records have a safe journey to their new home !

I actually posted an update on the Instagram page haha they made it safe!

Currently getting unboxed now

thanks Kristin!
