Eight and a half bil- eight and a half minutes ago, they're in the center of the sun, they're generated by the, uh, sunlight-generated nuclear reactions.
Marcus ChownGUEST
5:53
Uh, and, um- Somebody, you probably have covered this on your program, uh, Ray Davis, not Ray Davis of the Kinks pop group, but, uh, Ray Davis, uh, American physicist, decided to put 100,000 gallons of cleaning fluid down a mine, one mile down a mine in, in South Dakota to try and detect neutrinos from the sun, because occasionally a neutrino would, would go through his detector and turn a chlorine atom in his cleaning fluid into an argon atom.
Marcus ChownGUEST
6:20
Argon's a gas.
Marcus ChownGUEST
6:21
You could collect that at the end of the month and find out whether any neutrinos came through.
Dave SchneiderHOST
111:37
Some people say, what's Perfect Pop? That's Perfect Pop.
Dave SchneiderHOST
111:43
Before that, The Kinks, Session Man, Abba's Knowing Me, Knowing You, and we started off with Shake Your Coconuts by...
Dave SchneiderHOST
111:52
One of my favorite records by Junior Senior, they had some weird song called Move Your Feet, but the whole record is really, Very interesting, and I don't know what happened to that band, but they're from France, and they made you dance, so I like that.
Dave SchneiderHOST
112:11
You're listening to WPKN 89.5 FM.
Wayne BledsoeHOST
31:05
So I think that fits into the category kind of what you're talking about.
John BakerUNKNOWN
31:09
Well, I think going back to Escape songs, too, on the Kinks' 1967 album, Arthur, they have the song Driving, and it's like, you know, we'll just leave the troubled world behind.
John BakerUNKNOWN
31:20
We're just going to go out and drive.
John BakerUNKNOWN
31:21
Yeah.
Wayne BledsoeHOST
32:35
where he's loaned his girlfriend his Jaguar while he's gone off.
Wayne BledsoeHOST
32:40
What are you laughing
Chuck CampbellHOST
32:40
about? I was just thinking, sometimes people say they have trouble following us, and we just went from the Kinks to Tate McRae to Lou Christie.
Chuck CampbellHOST
32:49
This
David HobbsGUEST
27:14
two million more when all of the foolishness started happening.
David HobbsGUEST
27:17
But I think that the biggest issue is that, you know, Run DMC, slightly before us, they crossed over with Aerosmith when they did the Walk This Way song, but we crossed over because we were making explicit versions of records, but we're using Van Halen and Well, the Kinks and all these other different people in our records.
David HobbsGUEST
27:40
But we didn't really think it would be off the way that it went because of the comedians like Eddie Murphy, Richard Pryor, they never caught that kind of flack.
David HobbsGUEST
27:51
So we were wondering why we were actually catching the flack.
Douglas LevinsonGUEST
31:21
This is, it, I'm not gonna answer that question because it's not real.
Ethan KleinHOST
31:25
The Kinks?
Douglas LevinsonGUEST
31:25
I'm giving you a element of a hypothetical that is real.
Douglas LevinsonGUEST
31:29
The man who-

21 MINS LATER

Douglas LevinsonGUEST
52:12
... question
Ethan KleinHOST
52:12
...
Ethan KleinHOST
52:12
The Kinks-
Douglas LevinsonGUEST
52:13
I listen to plenty of music.
Mike CadaverHOST
6:04
So it's like, that sucks.
Mike CadaverHOST
6:06
But, oh, and the Kinks, Dave Davies did the guitar solos, but it was John Carpenter.
Mike CadaverHOST
6:11
But yeah, he did the scores.
Mike CadaverHOST
6:14
Yeah, the score for the whole thing, plus that song.
speaker_0HOST
2:16
And there's no exception to this song.
speaker_0HOST
2:18
This song is from my favorite band, The Kinks.
speaker_0HOST
2:21
You like The Kinks? A British invasion band.
speaker_0HOST
2:24
Started way back in the early 1960s.
speaker_0HOST
2:26
In fact, this song came out before I was even born.
speaker_0HOST
2:33
And it never really got to number one here in the U.S. or in the U.K. for that matter.
speaker_0HOST
2:38
But it's a timeless track without a doubt.
speaker_0HOST
2:42
There's a storied history with the Kinks.
Patti ComptonHOST
14:01
And then after that is a Wilco song.
Patti ComptonHOST
14:04
The first one's by the Kinks, and the second one is by Wilco, and it was from this film Boyhood.
Patti ComptonHOST
14:08
And if you haven't seen Boyhood, it's very, very cool.
Patti ComptonHOST
14:12
It is about this kid growing up, and they filmed it at different ages.
Patti ComptonHOST
14:22
So if you haven't seen that, I recommend it.
Patti ComptonHOST
14:24
But here you go.
Patti ComptonHOST
14:24
The Kinks and then Wilco here on KXFM.
Patti ComptonHOST
14:26
Mm-hmm.
Joe KiserGUEST
63:19
And then they did the Christmas-themed punk rock album.
Joe KiserGUEST
63:22
We really wanted to do the Kinks song, Father Christmas, but another band had already grabbed it.
Joe KiserGUEST
63:27
So we're like, damn.
Joe KiserGUEST
63:28
But then we were like, man, Last Christmas, that's a good one.
Charles AustinHOST
48:13
and they stole the chord progression from Chicago.
Alex NicholsHOST
48:16
And also Picture Book by the Kinks.
Alex NicholsHOST
48:18
They ripped that off.
Alex NicholsHOST
48:19
Yeah, that one too.
