Good afternoon before the early evening to one and all. This is Andy Positive and Wylita, and we are bringing to you live from Riverwest Radio on the perfectly dusty street of center, mother's musical diaries with Andy and Wylita. Now with a hot new phone line, call or text the show at 414-812-1730. That's 414-812-1730. 1730, a great year for the Ubonia Crassacornus, also known as the Thornbug. And uh in the same way that I am, Andrew P. Positive, also known as Nina's Poet Laureate. Uh but enough about me. Uh the Thornbug, I mean, come on, it's really something. And I you can find these little beauties in Florida. Uh they look like a thorn at Halloween, or like a thorn celebrating Halloween in a big way, if that makes any sense. Uh, do me a favor, look it up, and you'll know what I mean, mother lovers. Eubonia Crescorn is Thornbug. Okay, as it goes, we start every show with a diary entry from Mother, and then at some point, we play a song from her musical archives, and finally, we end each show with mother breathing closely, then entering my room to impart wisdom that offers a good deep sleep. And that's the way we start the show. That's like that's what we do. So we begin with the words of mother, a diary entry. For some reason, we're trying to go to the moon. Sure. People say it's about scientific development and progress. I say it's just more bluster, and as we used to say, looks like a pea contest to me. I don't know. Seems like we have enough work to do right here on Blessed Clabber Earth. I take that money spent on a spaceship and buy banjos for the whole town. Mother, what a great idea! A town full of banjos! Well, I mean, you know, given your diary and dream mother, and thank you for that, I thought we'd play a song about space missions or the moon. That's what I thought, but heck, given my recent fixation on the monks, I'd rather follow the whole banjo line if you don't mind.

SPEAKER_04 3:01

Let's go, let's make some.

SPEAKER_07 5:25

Distributors in the US, they refused to release it because of some anti-Vietnam references. And uh pretty well ahead of their time, okay? This stuff is proto-punk all the way. Wow, wow, wow, wow. There's a banjo in the monks music, too! And it's played by Dave D. And uh he used to play rhythm guitar in the band, but he swapped that out as a band developed their aggressive straight rhythm drive sound. And so that's a banjo that's drumming hard in their mother lovers. You gotta look at that stuff on the YouTube, and you can really see that banjo. It's just lovely. And I wondered, but did you did you hear it? It's just so it's just the backbone of that sound. And then that screechy singing, that's Gary Burger. And as I mentioned in the weekly newsletter last week, and side note, mother lovers, side note, if you want to subscribe to the weekly uh email newsletter, you gotta text 414-812-1730 or email too many positives. And gmail.com that's T-O-22Mini. And uh boy, I got off track there. But anyway, Gary Berger, he's from Bemidji, Minnesota! And later he became the mayor of Turtle River, Minnesota. And everything that's good in this country comes from the Midwest. I tell you, it really comes from the Midwest. Good clamber, I love the monks. You know, think about no monks, no students, and I don't mean the abused orphan and sadistic brothers here, okay? Uh the monks from Black Monk Time! And they went all the way with the actual tonsures, which is that bald spot atop a monk's head. For real monks, the tonsure is a symbol of humility and a renunciation of vanity, and I I love that a rock band went that route, you know, a bunch of handsome kids in their early twenties shaving bald spots, which really I really diminished their sex appeal, I guess, but I don't know, they look pretty sexy to me. I guess because they have a zero Wait a second, yeah. Yeah. I I took that acronym, I I kind of launched right into the actual word there, didn't I, Wyolita? Yes. Because they have sexy ZFG attitudes. Okay, that's why they look sexy to me, because they have sexy ZFG attitudes. Do you know what that means? Do you know what that means, Wylita? ZFG? Yes! But don't scream it out of here, you're gonna get shut down by the FCZ! But I have ZFG, honestly. Well, not really. Anyway, I always thought that the tensure was a way to physically get closer to God, you know what? So if you shave the top of your head so God can more easily get get into your head. That's what I thought. ZFG, indeed. Looks like maybe we have a phone call there, Waylita. And mother lovers, you too can you can call or text the show at 414-812-1730, and go ahead, let's see if we can pass that in. Yeah, okay, I'm gonna punch that in at uh number three, the other one with the green light. Okay, mother lover, what do you what do you got there? What do you got for us today? Hey, I'm stuck in traffic. Yeah, what is with all of these cars? But Pierre it is too dangerous with all these cars. Pierre, WXYW Technical Clinician in Residence, be careful. What the heck are you doing? I didn't know you had a license. I had no idea you had a license. And uh, so he and uh Oh, there you are. Are you still there, Pierre? Are you still there? Yes, I'm still here. Pierre, I'm still here, I'm the in the car. Oh, okay, Pierre, let's uh You gotta get uh you gotta get back to the stage. We gotta work to do. Uh you can't be driving without a license. I do not have a license. I'm not the drive to England, man. You're driving to England? This is a cliff. The Premier League is on the zip in there, and heaven's in the midfield, and then get the distributed.

SPEAKER_06 9:36

Who is he getting the heck this is in the bummer?

SPEAKER_07 9:40

You sort of give me the pummel. What do you want with your PR agreed? But settle down. And be safe and get the heck off the phone, would you? I saw L I saw I saw Larry today, eh? But then I realized that it was only the back end of a laboratory retriever. Sacred blew! Sacred blue. Oh boy, I gotta tell I gotta tell you what, I love that guy. I love that guy. Yeah, okay. And I he's just way he's he's gotta be my favorite technical clinician that we've ever had at WXRW. And uh, come on now. He saw Larry, but it was only the back end of a Labrador retriever. Ha ha ha! You can you you just can't beat that out. I just want to just say to you out there, Pierre, thanks for taking the time to call in. Oh, come on, this is live radio, and that was The Bridge, a German band that I believe made this one record only, just like the monks, if I'm not mistaken. Uh I don't know, R R and D anyone. Uh anyway, uh yeah, I'm pretty sure this this this was just this one album. It is called Overdrive Rock Jazz Party, and uh the liner notes are all in German. So I have I have I have no idea what the heck they're saying. Uh let's see, uh see what does it say here? Uh Win and Dass beer M Glaze swing t okay, whatever you say. Uh speaking of glaze, I had the most delicious miss Glaze raised donut at the special bakery called Greeby's. It's that place I Lincoln and like 55th with a super tall sign that might be Neon. I can't remember. There's a picture of an older woman. Maybe Grandma Greeby. Anyway, I put the whole darn thing in my mouth, and it just melted like a pad of butter on a warm car hood. Looks like we got a call there, yeah. Yeah, let's Yeah, let's go ahead and put that in, Wylita. Go ahead. Okay, yeah, I'm gonna put this one on line five because line three is full, Wylita. Okay, you caught me in the middle of my glazed raised donut story, but the leather. Uh what do you what do you got?

SPEAKER_06 17:06

I'm calling to help pronounce the children. Schmidt Schmid. Schmidt. Hold on, I uh I have to uh flush the toilet.

SPEAKER_07 18:30

Yeah, we can't take it right now. Maybe nothing. Take it away right out of me, I tell you what, why didn't he die? Can we uh You know I gotta say, as much as he disturbs me, he intrigues me, it's true. Let's play that German band for Schmidt Schmidt uh while he's on the throne. Yeah. Yeah, Wellita. Yeah, the band from last week, the duo spin-in from Munich in Germany. Yeah, I gotta I absolutely I love this album, and I got it for $7.99, which is such a steal. Come on. Yeah, we had a bit of a snafu with up here in the studio without our technical c clinician in residence, that record kinda got sure what happened, but we're gonna try that again. Let's see if we can get that going. Yeah, that's better. Spinin, that was spinning on Mother's Musical Diaries with Andy and Wyalita here at 104.1 WXRW. Only the best music from mine and mother's LP collection. All vinyl, all the time spinning! And I'm gonna get in touch with that duo from Germany and just see if they can come here and play a show, uh, maybe a Lineman's. They got a pretty pretty good sound system, or maybe Patty's Power Plant! Or uh or maybe uh Anthony, you know. We should we should we should we should have gone to Patty's Power Plant. I'm sorry. My buddy Anthony was in town and said no, I didn't take him to Patty's Power Plant. I mean, there are hundreds of great neighborhood bars in Milwaukee, buddy. And Anthony had visited from the Twin Cities and uh the great metropolis that showed the nation what it means to be a neighbor, because that's what that was about in Minneapolis. Neighbors being freaking neighborly! Uh try that again, you freaking uh federal imbeciles! If you don't show them enough is enough, they'll just keep pushing. And pushing further and further into my consciousness is Yes. Here cometh the Carbon County Comet! Uh this is a fish ramp out of Carbon County uh Missouri and uh yeah sweet I wish Pierre were here. He could fix that whole butt thing. There it is. This is a fish ramp out of Carbon County, Missouri. And I have been told that if you if you say it like that, if you say uh I got my geography all wrong. It's Wyoming. It's uh Carbon County, Wyoming. And if you say it like that, Wyoming, Wyoming, you might get your ears boxed. Uh so I'll try it again. This is a fish wrap out of Carbon County, Wyoming. That's how you say it. There it is. Okay, a recent addition to this copyrighted feature included some uh major confusion about the crossword puzzle. I believe if a if memory serves, there was a crossword clue for eight across. The clue was just uh it was Christmas blank, the time leading up to Christmas and just after. Four letters, uh, the last letter was E. Christmas blank, the time leading up to Christmas uh just after. Nothing made sense there, so I asked that you call in to help us out. And not one of you had the right answer. One of you said Yule. That was a nice guess. Christmas Yule, the time leading up to Christmas gin just after. And then another mother lover said cube. Christmas cube, the time leading up to Christmas and just after. Again, nice guess, but top notch, our listeners. But the answer was time, Christmas time, the time leading up to Christmas and just after. That was wild. About lost my drawers on that one, but uh today we're visiting the Carbon County Comets Rollins Elementary School breakfast and lunch menu, and here it goes. Get out your pens, mother lovers. Okay, for breakfast on March 30th, we've got cereal, chilled fruit, kiwi, graham snack, yogurt cup, cheese stick, milk, and Tuesday, March 31st, we've got oatmeal bowl, fresh fruit, yogurt cup, cheese stick, milk, and uh Wednesday, April 1st, we've got French toast, strawberries, juice, yogurt cup, milk, and then on April 2nd, Thursday, April 2nd, we've got breakfast pizza! Breakfast pizza, sign me up Sausage, canned fruit, blue cool tropic, yogurt cup, milk, and then uh Yeah, I'm just gonna fade out of yeah, but then oh boy, I'm starting to feel a little bit Yeah, yogurt milk breakfast, pizza, sausage fruit of my stomach from my girl. Oh, come on, that was ho two too too, which means I have you. That was from the great Bollywood movie, Hum Jolie. And uh, that's the soundtrack. And I, you know what? Uh the great LaFlam, an outstanding guitarist in our band, Wailita, he gave us that record. Yeah, you told me that. I re you reminded me about that, and uh So that's the soundtrack from Hum Jolie, and uh you gotta see that movie, and uh Hum Joly and this is a movie where Gopal Das is a vile, greedy man who is in love with a girl Shyama. Once he visited a wedding which is called off as the bride Rupa is d is dark. Uh uh just a side just uh just a side note here. They have a lot of issues with cast and any of other lovers. It's it's it's pretty deep. Uh anyway, during the during that fight, Gopaldas marries Rupa for her property. Later, he returns and assures Shyama that he will surely discard Rupa and marry her. Time passes, and the couple is blessed with a baby girl Rani. Due to extortion by Shyama, Gopaldas seeks to kill Rupa along with the baby. Fortuitously, the child is rescued with Gopaldas, while Gob which Gobaldas hides years roll by and Gobaldas marries Shyama and secretly rears Rani. In college, she loves a smart guy, Rajash, the brother of her close friend Shoma. Okay, you get the idea. I don't really remember the movie, but I'll tell you this much of the music. It's outstanding. You gotta check that out. Check out that L P if you can. Hum Joly H-U-M-J-O-A-J-O-L-I, Hum Jolie. And it just so happens that uh Asha Bosh Bosal Asha I don't know how to say her name, Asha Bosel. Uh there was a grand and exquisite voice of the song we just heard. She left the earth the other day, and I don't mean she was on Artemis. Uh she died on Sunday. And uh Asha was one of the most important singers in Hindi cinema. And uh now this doesn't really matter, but but why Lisa pulled the Hum Joly record out on Sunday, and she dusted it off and because we hadn't listened to it for uh three years, four years. And we sang a dance because that's an outstanding soundtrack, as you just heard. And then, uh, by chance, while reading the liner notes on the album, we looked up Asha, who who was the singer credited that I just mentioned, and ha ho ho choo choo choo! And uh looked it up because we said, Man, oh man, she has such a great voice! Looked her up on the internet some Monday to learn that she was no longer with us. Why did we decide to listen to the record on the day of her passing? That's a lot of energy coming together right there, mother lovers. Okay, enough with cosmic coincidences, no more cosmic quinky dinks. Let's shift back to the concreteness of musical pleasures. Go ahead and hit that, Wileita.

And uh at night, uh where there was no moon at all, it was pitch black, and he sat outside our tent and he made just the worst sort of stomach groans. Really, really scary stuff, and uh I I don't know what that whole him not eating sardines was about. Um But uh Waylita and I we just held hands real tight and we just we just kind of clasped our fingers together because that's the whole s the sardine's a little more scary.

We can't we can't let him down. He's listening right now, Doc! Doctor, we have a good one for you. I was listening to this album the other day while I was cleaning up Godzilla's puke. And I just thought to myself, wow, this is an extraordinary, extraordinary suite of music. Yeah, if you remember that, Mother Lovers. Johnny Dionni, he was a staunch opponent of South African apartheid, part of the resistance in every way, Mother Lovers, and he was a crazy good bassist and pianist and composer and writer. And wow, wow, wow. I just love that steel. I love that steel drum. Did you hear that? It was so beautiful. Johnny Dionni, very hypnotic, and uh, Wyallita, we gotta play that for the kitties and see if we can put them put them under a spell.

And uh Boy oh boy of the Badeski Martin and Wood with their groundbreaking song, Sugarcraft, and I anointed it at such groundbreaking. So there. And you know what else is groundbreaking? It's if that's it, why not? Hi! Each show, I'll read a short passage from my unpublished memoir titled The Diarrhea of Foundos and Me, which will be illustrated by Wylita! And each show will get a little deeper into the story. Last week, uh Andy, after waking up from a restless sleep, noticed his big toe was bleeding, and so he suspected his dumb cousin Lewin of being a toe vampire. Hey, I can't wait to hear what's next. The diarrhea of Foundos and Me. Crab apples really sting. Crab apples really sting when you get nailed on the back of your bare leg. Dutchie and I have crab apple fights regularly. However, the ammunition has been running low. The apples are trampled, and the yellow jackets get in there and feed, and it's just a big mess. The great circle of life. Seed to tree, tree to crab apple, crab apple to crab apple fight, crabapple fight to trample, trample to yellow jackets, yellow jackets to mess, mess to seed, seed to tree, etc. And so on. Wow, that's a lot of wisdom there, little and you really understand the cycle of life, and yeah, I have to, you know what, you know where you got that from. I'll tell you what, who else knows about the cycle of life? That's mother, because I think I hear her coming. Yes, mother. Andy Don't be fooled by the naysayers, Andy. Life is a mosquito and a stone. A rope. And a phone. Oh, thank you, mother. I love all that wisdom just kind of being breathed into my ears. I really, I really thank you for that. And you know who else I'm thankful for? I really thankful for Jerry Han, and there we go. Yeah. Okay. Uh yes. Alright, hey, thanks everyone for joining us today. It was a real lot of fun. And before today's show, you heard La Java, who plays a lot of international music. And you can check his show out live on Friday nights at 8 p.m. uh WXRW River West Radio.
