Now I’m convinced you were single-handedly responsible for all the YouTube uploads that used to go up on the old Walkmen website. The ones I remember were Jamaica by Ben E. King, I Was the One by Elvis, and (best of all) a Rodney Dangerfield stand-up set. Love that you’re a Mermaids fan! Had that soundtrack on cassette.
Hello. I really love your show. I love the stuff I've heard before (1/3? ha ha, so specific), and I especially love and appreciate the stuff I have not heard. I've heard half the episodes so far and I can't wait to hear the rest.
You talk a lot, and I love it. Most DJs can't pull that off and I love it. Your love and respect for this music shows and I love how your delivery is so friendly.
Absolutely killer episode! I knew most of the songs, of course, but then you SLAYED me with El Raton. As for soundtracks, I grew up in a Beatles household so when American Graffiti came out (I think I was 9) it was quite an ear-opener. We saw the movie and then my sister got the cassette and we played over and over…
Okay I won't make a joke about Walter being available to dj weddings and middle school dances. My go-to party song is Ringo's 'Goodnight Vienna.'
I love solo Ringo
The American Graffiti soundtrack is another good one with songs from the 50s and 60s.
Yes! Agree. I have it on vinyl.
Just found u, WoW!

Thanks Rob. I’m going to make all of these accessible on my substack this week. I really appreciate it!
Man, I need to go to a dance party where you are DJ-ing!
Every track a bloody marvel. Thanks!

Ha yes, guilty

Love all your own music too!
Cheers and smiles all around.
Thanks for the note Matt! Glad you’re enjoying the show. ✌️

Goodness. Joe Cuba hits hard.
Oh man. Vacation was our family’s favorite movie growing up. Holiday Road brings it all back. This was a super fun episode. Thanks, Walt!
