Sounds ripped from cassettes & CDs found in immigrant-run mom & pop stores. Deconstructed icons. Field recordings. Sonic mayhem from the far corners of the internet.

Little known fact: The Beatles wrote "Your Mother Should Know" about my mom knowing which shows Gregory would also listen to, not realizing that they had it backwards. Actually, I'm kidding. The Brian Jonestown Massacre wrote that song. But that wasn't the title. And it didn't exist.

↳ Song: "Cultura Racional" by "Tim Maia"
...& some more McCartney here with a touch of 'And I Love Her' ? Or more accurately maybe - Harrison's gittar counterpoint...
Avatar 🇰🇷 8:47pm
Listener Gregory:

OK, this is embarrassing—very embarrassing. The song I was reminded of by Paz Interior was not by Milton N, but by... Stevie Wonder! Yes, it is one of the melodies in Ngiculela – Es Una Historia – I Am Singing, from Songs In the Key of Life, which I listened to recently. I apologize to Mr. Nascimento, to all the listeners, and to your mom for letting all of you down. And, as predicted, you now think I am insane.

This music is just so beautifully diverse & filled with so much in terms of reference without quite directly referencing anything -- it's like a mirror on the world of pop of the time and going back a decade or so from then ... is the thought that just came into my head just now

Gary, did you hear a story on NPR about the Master Musicians of Jajouka performing at the Glastonbury Festival in England? Interesting, though a bit depressing at the end, as their numbers seem to be dwindling. Not relevant to this show, but relevant more generally, I believe.

You know, Gary, I tried to listen to your story about what happened to Mr. Maia, but when you said that the cult leader was found having relations with the wife of a cult member, I just got stuck. That really does not seem plausible, and I just couldn't get beyond it.
