Be shaken. Be stirred. A whimsical wham-bam of exotic enchantments, sleazy oddities, pop fancies, and swingin’ slingers broadcast from Ridgewood, NYC’s very own Shangri-Lounge. Best served chilled, garnished with signature swizzle schtick.

Hi, Shangri-La! Hello, Scott and Pauly! It's a balmy 32ºC here where the WFMU Mothership hovers.

Hey all you melodramatics!

Funny, that "Hula Hop" was the (mis-titled) "Hawaiian War Chant"...with English lyrics?
Avatar 6:15pm

Yeah, totally seems that way, Fab!! I enjoy it.

Pauly from Clifton:

Hey Scott! At 1815 it's still about 32C and steamy, like Gaylord mentioned. I may try the patio, tho.
Avatar 6:21pm
Mr Fab:

Shangri-La, Gaylord and other New Yorkers out there - Henri didn't get anything too soggy? Nothing floated off?
Avatar 6:21pm
Carmichael:

The female Scott Walker, perhaps?

Halloo!

shangri-lounge:

It was quite wet, Fab! I hid at home the entire time, luckily. Lots of thunder and lightning. I believe there was some flooding in the subways. But, it didn't get too nasty overall.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:23pm
Krys O.:

Towns in NJ near me got 5-6 inches of rain. Central Jersey had up to a foot of rain. Flooding was a problem.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:24pm
Scott67:

Pauly, sounds lovely! Be sure to hydrate!
🍺💦😎🤙👣☀️

Hey Krys! Hope the flooding didn't impact you.

Carmichael, I could see that! Good assessment.

G'day Carmichael.👍😎

Pauly from Clifton:

Hi Mr Fab, Krys O, Carmichael!

Scott, great advice! I will do so!🍻
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:29pm
Krys O.:

Hey, DJ Shangri La! I'm on a hill and I stayed inside, but a small river down the hill from me was overflowing its banks and flooding a road.

Ooh, loving this Hellen Christian.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:29pm
Scott67:

G'day Krys.✌😎
Avatar 6:30pm
shangri-lounge:

It is MOODY. It's a cover of a Paul Anka song, apparently. Anyway, glad to hear you were in a prime location for all that.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:31pm
Krys O.:

Yeah, I'm very familiar with the overwrought Anka hit. I like Christian's Helen Shapiro-like voice.

Hey, Scott!
Avatar 6:35pm
shangri-lounge:

Yeah, Paul Anka is a little too much cheese - even for me. Or, not the right kind, rather. Though I do have him coming up. ;-)
Avatar 6:40pm
Mr Fab:

Anka's "Rock Swings" album is amazing - swingin big-band versions of Nirvana, The Cure, Billy Idol, etc. It's like Richard Cheese with a big budget.
Avatar 6:41pm
shangri-lounge:

Wow, haha. I'll have to check that out, Fab. I could maybe get into that. What is the Billy Idol track?
Avatar 6:43pm
shangri-lounge:

I'd enjoy the novelty for at least one listen.
Avatar 6:43pm
Mr Fab:

"Eyes Without A Face" - a tune made for a crooner when you think about it.
Avatar 6:44pm
shangri-lounge:

Hahaaaa. Yes, definitely have to hear that.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:49pm
Krys O.:

It's far better than Pat Boone, for certain.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:58pm
Krys O.:

Thanks, DJ Shangri La!! Fab show!

Thanks for tuning in, Krys! Appreciate it.
