Kick Out the James!

Mar 5, 2021 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM

ZBC Rock

With James

In these confused times isn't it nice to find some relief? Every week, James will try to bring some sense into this crazy world via the radio waves. Look back. Look forward. Seek the truth. Never dull. Always irreverent. Fight the good fight by just sitting back and listening.

We return to our regular programming. Thanks to David Nance and Tom Greenhouse for joining a guy like me for the last two weeks of shows.

Kick Out the James!

A Kitty Kat Kouplette.
DJ Simon 9:42:49 AM
I thought I recognized that riff.
James (host) 9:43:09 AM
You already played this??
DJ Simon 9:43:30 AM
No – haven't heard it before. It's great – much better than Janet's version.
DJ Simon 9:44:08 AM
I recognized the riff because I had to listen to Black Cat about 3000 times for a project I worked on back in the 90s.
James (host) 9:44:10 AM
OHHHH! Now I understand my idiotic back announce call out about the song.

James (host) 10:24:54 AM
I've said it a million times before...but...it was my dad that turned me on to college radio. "You should be listening to the music on the left side of the dial." And so it began.
Verb Crunch 10:28:29 AM
My Dad and I got into huge fights because he didn't consider the Doors, the Rolling Stones, and the Beatles to be "music".. in 1967..
James (host) 10:29:41 AM
HAH. My Dad had albums by all them. He liked classical as young person, jazz as a young man and then by time he passed...MDC, GBH and much hardcore.
James (host) 10:31:15 AM
One day, coming home from collecting from my paper route customers, heard my Nugent record playing from down the street. Ran home pissed at my brother for stealing my records again. Nope. Dad fast asleep. When turned it down, said, "Why you turn it down. It was calming me."
ex-DJ tamer 10:32:53 AM
I got into a fight with a RollingStones-loving hippie on a college radio station in 1978. He insisted that punk rock was not music.
ex-DJ tamer 10:34:00 AM
Your dad is way cool, James.
James (host) 10:34:39 AM
Was way cool
ex-DJ tamer 10:34:56 AM
Awww
Jamie YBN 10:35:27 AM

James (host) 10:36:22 AM
I was phone talking about punk with Barry Nolan when on WZLX doing his oldies thing...I said, "soon the sex pistols will be oldies and played here." He said, "That's the day I quit." and hung up.
Roger Jermyn 10:36:35 AM
