Always fun to discover FMU people in the credits and liner notes! Particularly Irwin - I've called him "the King of Liner Notes", and sometimes adding those details to the bands' Wikipedia pages as "Keyofz".
  5:07pm
Dean:

Irwin definitely shows up with some frequency in the areas where I wander. A few years ago I bought a used copy of a William Hooker album at Portland's Mississippi Records. The recording was made on Doug Schulkind's show, engineered by Irene Trudel.

Dean:

Most impressive was when I mentioned Harold Bloom on Tony Coulter's show. Tony responded that he used to work for Bloom. He wrote a number of the Chelsea House literary study titles attributed to Bloom!
