James (host) 8:56:54 AM
Good morning KOTJ and ZBC folks. It's a re-airing a Mem Day show May 24, 2014. It's a fine perhaps less rockin. Please enjoy. There are a couple songs that were in last week's classic KOTJ and Toiling in Obscurity shows. One overlaps Nick's show.
PiGuy 9:07:53 AM
Rockin' good start. Hope all is well.
James (host) 9:08:07 AM
BTW: Sound Syrup/Ignore the Machine back today with two hours of Bradley Jay
Saginaw 9:08:25 AM
Good morning
PiGuy 9:08:56 AM
Looking forward to it, if work doesn't get in the way that is.

Check email shortly, Pi.
Joanie Lindstrom 9:22:27 AM
What is this, the 11:15 song of the day?
James (host) 9:25:33 AM
Pardon Joanie. Busy where I am trying to manage playlist.
Joanie Lindstrom 9:26:23 AM
I'm joking, referencing the oddball song I play at 11:15 on my show. Timothy is a great one.
James (host) 9:26:50 AM
Oh yeah. Cold As Ice! Glad the celts won last night, i'm sure.
Joanie Lindstrom 9:26:51 AM
And I didn't realize it got a re-relesae
Joanie Lindstrom 9:27:17 AM
I will gladly eat my words if the Celtics pull off that miracle.
James (host) 9:28:02 AM
I'm updating to actual. I think I mention the weird history of that song in back announce.
James (host) 9:28:05 AM
I'm updating to actual. I think I mention the weird history of that song in back announce.
tom siegfried 9:30:21 AM
Almost feel like I remember this show…at least that BW song tripped some KOTJ memory…never enough Bongwater
Roadsider 9:32:57 AM
Jeez, good thing there's this chat. I had to check it to see why James sounds like he's on fire this morning.
James (host) 9:33:53 AM
I mentioned Joanie!
Joanie Lindstrom 9:35:42 AM
How weird, I was down the hall and thought I heard MBR, I guess I did. Bizarre.
James (host) 9:36:40 AM
There are no coincidences.
Fred 9:37:32 AM
fashionably late good morning
James (host) 9:38:33 AM
Fred. Always the archive(s).
James (host) 9:39:53 AM
I'm playing Bauhaus....? I guess I've been known to.
Bradgic 9:47:24 AM
Love these old shows! And they hold up so well. Thanks James! Have a good weekend all!
James (host) 9:49:18 AM
Thanks as well Brad! I think it was a good show choice.
James (host) 9:50:18 AM
"Everything will be alright...."🙏🏻
James (host) 9:50:39 AM
Totally mixed up.
DJ Simon 9:50:50 AM
I like hearing the old studio again.
Bradgic 9:51:06 AM
Oh yeah, good point DJS!
James (host) 9:51:44 AM
Yes DJS!
DJ Simon 9:52:21 AM
Sounds like a warm tube amp.
Elnor Vashti 9:53:16 AM
remember when BCN used to play Cars demos before album came out?
James (host) 9:53:28 AM
I agree. Although this recording is from the Z-chive files and for the last half year I've been recording off board. But yeah something does sound better.
Elnor Vashti 9:54:31 AM
it's clearer for some reason. crisper. don't know how that can be. though.
James (host) 9:58:03 AM
Not a digital board?
James (host) 10:00:41 AM
Sadly no Prof Ire Gold Soundz this summer
bruckner4 10:10:17 AM
that's a blow.
Elnor Vashti 10:13:21 AM
DJ S, the old digital vs. analog argument. Digital preserves all the information! it cannot sound different!! and yet, it does.
Barry Hart 10:13:42 AM
Good morning,one and all,hope everyone is having a pleasant Friday.Nice to hear the Memorial Day show from nine years ago,James,particularly the Buoys,Gary Numan and the Cars.
DJ Simon 10:16:53 AM
@Elnor - So true.
PiGuy 10:19:00 AM
Haven't given it a listen yet but Romeo Void just released a live show recording from 1980 on Bandcamp and other versions. Came out a couple of weeks ago .
James (host) 10:26:44 AM
DJS - It's a freak out
Victor Venckus 10:28:16 AM
Please announce; On LUCID SOUNDS a little after 8am I will play recordings of TINA TURNER doing Hindu chants. On EXPANDING AWARENESS the topic is MALE CIRCUMCISION.
DJ Simon 10:28:17 AM
I was just thinking that!
BobbyLove 10:32:02 AM
Morning James. Bobby from the Rule. This is time travel.
James (host) 10:33:17 AM
Victor, I'd announced but it's not a live show. From May 2014
James (host) 10:33:33 AM
Hey Bobby. Rule 62 FOR SURE, right?
Roger Jermyn 10:38:36 AM
Good morning all
James (host) 10:39:36 AM
As know. Stranglers tune was on last week's show. Oh well.
DJ Simon 10:40:38 AM
Not a bad thing to hear "Nice 'N' Sleazy" twice in seven days.
James (host) 10:40:47 AM
Agreed!
ex DJ tamer 10:40:52 AM
Your 2014 self also played two songs that the bot played last night -- I'm calculating the odds now (cuz I like math)
James (host) 10:41:26 AM
Wild. There are no coincidences and anyone that knows me knows I'm repetitive.
ex DJ tamer 10:42:30 AM
Actually, the bot copied you. It "knew" which old show your were going to play and liked some of the songs. A.I. iz real.
James (host) 10:47:28 AM
I agree with The Fonz when it comes to AI...."A, I, whoa."
BobbyLove 10:47:43 AM
@James, Yep.
James (host) 10:48:40 AM
This one...A Request...was played on last Saturday's Toiling in Obscurity classick show.
Barry Hart 11:11:37 AM
Really liked “Nice’N’ Sleazy”-kind of reminds me of the Clash’s”Guns of Brixton”.
JeffB 11:33:52 AM
Listening has me feeling 9 years younger
Elnor Vashti 11:39:39 AM
James, you just played Tubes a few weeks ago. this is actually exactly what i want from life: KOTJ. :-)
Elnor Vashti 11:40:44 AM
i'm kinda feeling 45 years younger. :-) not really... :-(
DJ Simon 11:45:08 AM
Soldier, Soldier - classic KOTJ!
Victor Venckus 11:45:59 AM
Music was so much better back then.
Victor Venckus 11:46:35 AM
now it's a grave new world!
Shanti 11:47:10 AM
