Cypress Hill) – 10/04/1998 – Sunday Night Show Source – The Lost Batch of Tapes (2017) with a Tobydog Tape (2008) Patch This is the new Tape from that Top-Secret Stash we just acquired, there is a 20 second chunk patched in from an old Tobydog Tape that I may have transferred 9 years ago. The band are making what seems to be their 2nd appearance of the Adam era, the band’s previous episode if it exists is still lost to time, perhaps from 95 or 96. They have 8 more appearances on CLL during Adam’s run, between now and 2005. Cypress Hill were some of the most frequent and solid Loveline guests in the show’s history, pre-and post Adam era. This episode is great, it sounds better than ever and the Read More →

CLL #783 (feat. The Flys) – 09/29/1998 – Tuesday Night Show Source – TobyDog Tape (pre-2007)  This is the only known copy of this show, it’s missing roughly 5 to 7 minutes, the band are making their first of two visits to LoveLine, they return one more time for CLL #933 in April of 1999. They had a song on the ‘Disturbing Behavior’ soundtrack and their voices are similar to Criss Angel. They’re brothers and overall solid guests. LoveLineTapes Original notes I wrote about a decade ago. The two guests are great, they are brothers who started a band. I only remember that they had a song on the “Disturbing Behavior” soundtrack, nonetheless the guys are fantastic. They discuss their Bizarre childhood(s) and their father, a traveling physician/surfer. The guests Read More →

CLL #782 (feat. Fart Lighting) – 09/28/1998 – Monday Night Show Source – DAT Tape (2017) This is the rarest of all of the tapes, if only a VHS could be recovered showing the security video, that would be the only greater find. The audio is without comparison and this replaces the old TobyDog Tape from before 2007. This is what I’ve been working on, Adam’s Assterpiece and the first attempt of on air Fart Lighting. “Special guest tonight… My ass. Doin’ more talking than a lot of our guests do” – Adam Sorry ’bout DAT file size!

CLL #781 (feat. The Love Between The Two Hosts) – 09/27/1998 – Sunday Night Show Source – TobyDog Tape (2008) This is the only known source, a TobyDog tape possibly transferred by me nearly a decade ago, the show is nearly complete just missing a few seconds in a couple of spots.  Adam shares the Tim The Russian Rapper story, Adam and Drew are fresh from Syracuse. This show is full of rare old stories and long lost one time only mentions from both hosts, do not miss it!  LoveLineTapes   The original notes either UnclePenny or I wrote about a decade ago Great Show! Includes some garlic belching and a great telling of the Tim the Russian rapper story along with some other great, somewhat rare stories. The show starts right Read More →

CLL #780 (feat. Henry Rollins) – 09/24/1998 – Thursday Night Show Source – Kevin Tape (2017) with TobyDog Tape (pre-2007) patches This is the new Kevin Tape with some patches from the older transfer, 13 of the missing 15 minutes have been restored and the show is nearly complete and just missing about 2 minutes from the beginning. Henry is a lot harder on Adam in this episode than he is during later visits, he’s making his 2nd known appearance of the Adam era and has 5 more appearances between this show and 2002 for his final visit of the Adam era. Some listeners found Henry to be a dick others thought he was just not into Adam’s fart humor, once again decide for yourself. Adam reveals the real reason he was kicked Read More →

CLL #779 (feat. The Love Between The Two Hosts) – 09/23/1998 – Wednesday Night Show Source – Kevin Tape (2016) with TobyDog (pre-2007) Patches This is a new merging of two sources, the show is now complete with the missing 5+ minutes restored and somehow extra hilarious! Adam and Drew riff about trying to explain prohibition to aliens and Adam has two specific hilarious interactions with callers, pay attention! Adam Sings, all around terrific “Love Between The Two Hosts” LoveLine at it’s best. The show was previously mislabeled as a JBJ show but it was in fact a Tobydog Recording I didn’t get to transfer, the quality was rough. Now with the quality upgrade the show plays “funnier” perhaps because you don’t need to filter out the noise to focus on the comedy. LoveLineTapes Read More →
