	12:16pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Tamar, Freedom Riders
	12:16pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Kami Ni Mantara" by "Gnawa Njoum" I remember right after this premium came out. I worked for a large tech company where there was free sitting. I overheard one guy listening to rai, and i gave him the premium to copy (and he was off to Hong Kong the next day). of course, I come in today right after that track finished.
	12:24pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Tamar @12:03 Hi there Tamar and all other listeners!

	12:25pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @12:07 Hiya doc!
	12:25pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:16 Greetings coel!
	12:28pm headcleaner: ↳ Song: "Neicuta Mi-Aduc Aminte" by "Gabi Luncă" Fine stuff today, Tamar. Too bad I can't clicky-star this
	12:28pm coelacanth∅: ngh i've lost a few things that way. tapes, books... finally learned to make the copy myself and give it to the person. with books i do an exchange, borrowing something of theirs. ...unless i'm hot on the person, in which case i might make the mistake again.
	12:29pm coelacanth∅: aloha Andrew!
	12:29pm doctorjazz: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:25 Hello Andrew!
	12:31pm Brian in UK: Hello Tamar & Co.
	12:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~Good ♃Thursday FMUvianz~
	12:33pm Brian in UK: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:28 Was it ever thus. My thinking is that the music is not mine but for all to hear. But do have the decency to return it!!
	12:34pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:28 well, in this case, i didn't lose it. He just copied at work.
	12:34pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:24 hey, Andrew!
	12:36pm spodiodi: greetings, Tamar and all
	12:36pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo. LATE start at work today; sinus issues and could barely get out of bed. Pleasant surprise to find Tamar here!
	12:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Watching The Detectives" by "Elvis Costello & The... Boy, been a minute since I heard this (or this album, which was in constant rotation when it came out).
	12:38pm chris in the redwoods: watching the detectives is one of those tracks i recognize instantly. probably not a coinkydink it’s one of my fav Elvis tracks.
	12:38pm Handy Haversack: Hello, Tamar and wanderers. Just saying hi. Been listening while cooking and eating late breakfast out here in western Michigan. Going to aim the speaker out the window and go hose the spiders out of the canoe.
	12:39pm chris in the redwoods: hey, Handy. i know the hose v spiders game well.
	12:40pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ spodiodi @12:36 aloha, spodi!
	12:41pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ spodiodi @12:36 hiya spodi!
	12:42pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:38 Hi Handy!
	12:42pm Yvang: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:25 Heya Andrew!
	12:43pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Brian in UK @12:33 that's the thing. i've never lent somebody music unless i was sure they'd return it. then they don't. usually they don't mean to steal it, but things suddenly change for them, they leave town or whatever and the thing disappears. 'seems i've usually lent things to people i don't know.
	12:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I think of working in (Used) CD Stores in Santa Barbara - like that would pay rent there - & also trying to own all the Music I wanted that passed by @ the same time ...buying boxed sets - & selling them back to make rent... When today one just Rips everything to a hardrive ...& I actually spend all my time now listening online mostly FMU...
	12:45pm coelacanth∅: aloha spodiodi!
	12:46pm headcleaner: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:43 That's the way to do it, coela. Just let it go. "I'll hear it again in the spirit world"
	12:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...making the Copy & giving that seems a good policy. There are certainly people whose Collections I'd like to sit with & Rip to a hard drive ...their stuff needn't go anywhere...
	12:48pm coelacanth∅: ↳ headcleaner @12:46 it does seem to come back around, eventually. (in the semi-physical world)
	12:50pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:46 yes, and now especially... a cd is so much less expensive than a decent cassette tape. (~30¢ compared to 2-3 bucks, 30 years ago)
	12:52pm listener james from westwood: Ooh, Prince Rama! Their Record Fair appearance was a good 'un.
	12:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - one of those Sets I bought & had to sell was Coltrane on Prestige - big red Box of 16 CDs ...but a more recent friend had it as digital files ! :D ...in mp3 form, not lossless mp4 - but oh well...
	12:52pm Phillippe: howdy
	12:53pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Phillippe!
	12:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always wonderful to have Tamar btw. Assumed, but appreciated.
	12:53pm Phillippe: 'sup coel?
	12:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Joy" by "Apollo 100 Featuring Tom Parker" Vinyl Glitches? (doesn't sound like the digital kind).
	12:55pm TDK60: Hello in-filler Tamar DJ! I just finished music practice. Now, I will turn my Ear toward "AWTY?"
	12:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:52 I'm a lunatic for any box labeled "The Complete...", actually hard to listen to them, but I love getting them.
	12:56pm coelacanth∅: RR one thing i sometimes do when my only source of something i really like is a lossy file is dub it to cassette tape. then usually back again (to a flac file). it obviously lowers the quality, technically; but it smooths out some of those ugly digital artifacts.
	12:57pm coelacanth∅: my parents had that apollo 100 45. very good to hear that again, in all it's crackly glory.
	12:58pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Phillippe @12:52 hey, Phillippe!
	1:00pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ TDK60 @12:55 Hello TDK60!
	1:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @12:56 I had the little Miles & Gil Evans thing - a brass spine like a trumpet ! Wish I coulda held onto that !! Just to have the files would be great ...but actual artifact in that case is kewl... Columbia Legacy is the example often pointed to for how a Label can do this right - Soundwise & everything...
	1:02pm doctorjazz: I've raved about this before, but Craft Recordings released "The Birth of Bop", which is the Savoy recordings of early bebop (not Bird and Diz). I have most of this on Savoy reissues, but the packaging and sound (LPs) is great!
	1:03pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Guerra E Pace, Pollo E Brace" by "Voci Bianche di... knew this was a morricone jig....
	1:03pm Phillippe: Hey chris!
	1:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:56 Very interesting. We could evoke the entire Digital vs. Analog discussion ...I'll just note that 16bits was probly random & less than the best they could've landed on. & we've all been reduced by expanded dynamic range - & then began to long for the Artistry of Mastering Engineers who understood the limits of Analog & used it well !...
	1:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:05 *seduced by expand range...
	1:06pm coelacanth∅: ↳ doctorjazz @1:02 sometimes the packaging is just too good. the raven by the stranglers is a good example. i'm willing to let go of the music, but i want that album cover on my wall!
	1:06pm spodiodi: hello, chris, Adrew, coelacanthØ, Phillippe!
	1:07pm Phillippe: spodi!
	1:08pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:00 I believe I have all those Miles Davis Columbia sets (with the gold spines, pull out book-like sets), they're packaged terrifically. You can gripe about the presentation (historical reissues generally forgo the original album order for order of recording and alternate takes), but overall, they get high marks (The Bitches Brew set is also amazing).
	1:08pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:05 agree on all counts... seduced , and reduced!
	1:08pm coelacanth∅: greetings chris!
	1:09pm TDK60: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @1:00 Hello Andrew.
	1:10pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:08 coel!
	1:11pm northguineahills: ↳ doctorjazz @1:08 I don't have all of them, but I have quite a few...
	1:12pm coelacanth∅: i have an OLD copy of "daphnis and chloé" by Ravel. the record is scratched beyond listenable, even for my very high crackle tolerance, but i've kept it for the beautiful packaging. reproductions of gorgeous wood-cut prints, about 8 pages within a sturdy white book.
	1:14pm coelacanth∅: (actually i just looked. it's not surface noise, but it's cracked)
	1:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @1:08 Yeah. I try not to be That Artifact Guy. But some packaging is notable. ...& I'm kind of a Beatles, Hendrix, Who completist ...not like proactively acquisitive - like some people you can see online these days. I just wish I was :D ...
	1:17pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:05 There are labels releasing 24 bit (96 khz and higher), which in theory sound better (a lot depends on how good the original master is to begin with-you can't fix a bad recording with more "bits").
	1:18pm Phillippe: great set
	1:19pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:16 Pretty sure I have the complete discography of those artists (much in CD/LP form, almost all in digital, hi-rez formats as well). Probably will pass on before I get to listen to it all...
	1:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @1:17 Yeah. Get me as close to the Master as I can get ! :D
	1:23pm coelacanth∅: Leyla's channeling Bobbie Gentry
	1:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @1:19 Yeah there's - I can listen to anything they did ...but then there's - the Argentinian Pressing had an Orange label & one misspelling kind of Completist. :D With TheBeatles I can understand the Artifact trip. I don't have any resources presently - but if it happens to cross my path, I'll hold onto it... Yerknow there's people with Beatle Rooms - whatever, right ?...
	1:23pm doctorjazz: They've been reissuing remastered Beatles (for the 50 Anniversary of the albums), with some fixes by AI related technology. I have to say, they sound quite good!
	1:24pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @1:23 Giles Martin, I believe.
	1:24pm doctorjazz: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:23 I thought Roches when it started.
	1:26pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Memory Song" by "Leyla McCalla" Signed in for clicky star purposes (this and Big Thief)
	1:27pm Handy Haversack: Heading for the lakes. Thanks, Tamar. Bye, all.
	1:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @1:23 I expounded @ length on the 2009 Remasters of TheBeatles' Studio Albums : www.facebook.com... - but I have just not had the resources to obtain any of these Deluxe BoxSets for each Album coming out more recently. For TheBeatles - or TheWho for that matter.
	1:29pm Michael 98145: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 Enjoy !!
	1:29pm Phillippe: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 have fun!
	1:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: Greetings, Tamar and Tamargaritas! 🍹
	1:30pm TDK60: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 Handy, get wet, will ya?
	1:32pm TDK60: ↳ Kat in the chat @1:26 Yeah, Kat. I've been enjoying many of the more recent folkish/folkrockish acts like these, Big Thief, McCalla, Rhiannon Giddens, etc.
	1:32pm northguineahills: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 michagan has lakes?!, who knew?
	1:32pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 Not the lake where you're all itchy afterwards, I hope.
	1:32pm doctorjazz: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 Jealous! Enjoy!
	1:34pm Phillippe: ↳ northguineahills @1:32 They're all pretty small. Ponds, actuallly
	1:35pm spodiodi: have fun, Handy!
	1:40pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Haiti" by "Accolade" Great track!
	1:45pm northguineahills: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:32 There's a spring-fed river that is popular w/ innertubers about 40 miles from gainesville call the Itchetucknee River. We used to alway just call it the itch me touch me river....
	1:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& you came up with that yourself from Scratch...
	1:50pm doctorjazz: See me, feel me, touch me, heal me...
	1:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Zaina" by "Ry-Co Jazz" ...wull here's a delightful little track...
	1:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Welcome to Itchetucknee River, where nothing can possib-lie go wrong. Uh, possibly go wrong. That's the first thing that's ever gone wrong.
	1:57pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:56 The whole set has been great, and very danceable!
	1:59pm Tamar: Here's for your dancing pleasure, for those not dipping into summer lakes-- and for those who are.
	2:03pm northguineahills: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:57 frinkiac.com...
	2:04pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "La Cumbia del Chaca Chaca" by "Palomo/Grupo Super... si! silla bailando a cumbia!
	2:09pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Cumbia Pa' Gozar (feat. IMS & Toy Selectah" by "L... Toy Selectah is a member of the Monterrey hihop group Control Machete..
	2:16pm βrian: Just had some sweet cherries that a friend brought over from northern Michigan. There are none better.
	2:18pm northguineahills: ↳ βrian @2:16 Yoop! There it is!
	2:26pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Toubouk Ine Chihoussay" by "Etran de L'Aïr" hello all, nice track!
	2:27pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Song: "Toubouk Ine Chihoussay" by "Etran de L'Aïr" what a banger!
	2:29pm Brian in UK: This is relentless.
	2:29pm northguineahills: there's a glitch in the matrix (happens to me in my reality) 😊
	2:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Toubouk Ine Chihoussay" by "Etran de L'Aïr" Nice Scratchin' Mixmaster ! :D
	2:30pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Toubouk Ine Chihoussay" by "Etran de L'Aïr" I saw a similar band last weekend in Central Park, Mdou Moctar. I was unprepared for the high energy onslaught.
	2:30pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:26 a sahel band... no wonder i like
	2:31pm Tamar: So much for pretend you're at a concert . . .
	2:33pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Tamar @2:31 thx for stickin' w/ it
	2:35pm Funky16Corners: Good afternoon! Testify! Coming up at 3PM ET - https://wfmu.org/shows/playlists/130225
	2:39pm Tamar: Mdour Moctar is wonderful to see live!
	2:44pm doctorjazz: ↳ Tamar @2:39 I saw him a few years back at the Solid Sounds Festival, he did a KILLER set!
	2:44pm Will in Norman: ↳ Tamar @2:39 I've seen him live too, i agree! it was in Bloomington, IN 2019
	2:45pm Will in Norman: i saw imarhan, a similar band from algeria a few weeks ago. also pretty good. a very tight band, the guitarists & bassist especially
	2:47pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:28 RRN63-you have to learn to express yourself ;- ) I just finished reading that post (I have Facebook, but am on it as rarely as I can manage), interesting. Those reissues are not the most recent, though, over the past 3-4 years Giles Martin has remastered, yet again, the more recent Beatles albums, working backwards.
	2:48pm doctorjazz: Loved the show, Tamar, we must be there by now...
	2:55pm spodiodi: thanks for the show, Tamar
	2:56pm TDK60: Fine presentation DJ Tamar. See ya soon round these parts, I hope?
	2:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @2:47 Yes - as I said - I have not resources for the SuperDeluxe boxes for each album. So ...I cannot make especially informed commentary ~ opinion about what Giles Martin has done. But it's makes for a good study in all the things we've broached in this chat ! Should it be done just because we can ?? In this case - I think the Originals as his Dad intended will always be there ...that is: for Reproducible Art - we should maybe be less precious about these things...
	2:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @2:56 ...& if you get me closer to - not only Masters - but everything the Beatles did in the Studio - I have time for it !...
	2:58pm chris in the redwoods: thanks, Tamar!
	2:58pm northguineahills: thank you so much, Tamar, it's been a treat. come back soon!
	2:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Delightful ! ~ TY Always DJ Tamar ~
	3:05pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tamar!

	12:16pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Kami Ni Mantara" by "Gnawa Njoum" I remember right after this premium came out. I worked for a large tech company where there was free sitting. I overheard one guy listening to rai, and i gave him the premium to copy (and he was off to Hong Kong the next day). of course, I come in today right after that track finished.

	12:33pm Brian in UK: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:28 Was it ever thus. My thinking is that the music is not mine but for all to hear. But do have the decency to return it!!
	12:34pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:28 well, in this case, i didn't lose it. He just copied at work.
	12:34pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:24 hey, Andrew!
	12:36pm spodiodi: greetings, Tamar and all
	12:36pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo. LATE start at work today; sinus issues and could barely get out of bed. Pleasant surprise to find Tamar here!
	12:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Watching The Detectives" by "Elvis Costello & The... Boy, been a minute since I heard this (or this album, which was in constant rotation when it came out).
	12:38pm chris in the redwoods: watching the detectives is one of those tracks i recognize instantly. probably not a coinkydink it’s one of my fav Elvis tracks.
	12:38pm Handy Haversack: Hello, Tamar and wanderers. Just saying hi. Been listening while cooking and eating late breakfast out here in western Michigan. Going to aim the speaker out the window and go hose the spiders out of the canoe.
	12:39pm chris in the redwoods: hey, Handy. i know the hose v spiders game well.
	12:40pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ spodiodi @12:36 aloha, spodi!
	12:41pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ spodiodi @12:36 hiya spodi!
	12:42pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:38 Hi Handy!
	12:42pm Yvang: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:25 Heya Andrew!
	12:43pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Brian in UK @12:33 that's the thing. i've never lent somebody music unless i was sure they'd return it. then they don't. usually they don't mean to steal it, but things suddenly change for them, they leave town or whatever and the thing disappears. 'seems i've usually lent things to people i don't know.
	12:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I think of working in (Used) CD Stores in Santa Barbara - like that would pay rent there - & also trying to own all the Music I wanted that passed by @ the same time ...buying boxed sets - & selling them back to make rent... When today one just Rips everything to a hardrive ...& I actually spend all my time now listening online mostly FMU...
	12:45pm coelacanth∅: aloha spodiodi!
	12:46pm headcleaner: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:43 That's the way to do it, coela. Just let it go. "I'll hear it again in the spirit world"
	12:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...making the Copy & giving that seems a good policy. There are certainly people whose Collections I'd like to sit with & Rip to a hard drive ...their stuff needn't go anywhere...
	12:48pm coelacanth∅: ↳ headcleaner @12:46 it does seem to come back around, eventually. (in the semi-physical world)
	12:50pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:46 yes, and now especially... a cd is so much less expensive than a decent cassette tape. (~30¢ compared to 2-3 bucks, 30 years ago)
	12:52pm listener james from westwood: Ooh, Prince Rama! Their Record Fair appearance was a good 'un.
	12:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - one of those Sets I bought & had to sell was Coltrane on Prestige - big red Box of 16 CDs ...but a more recent friend had it as digital files ! :D ...in mp3 form, not lossless mp4 - but oh well...
	12:52pm Phillippe: howdy
	12:53pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Phillippe!
	12:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always wonderful to have Tamar btw. Assumed, but appreciated.
	12:53pm Phillippe: 'sup coel?
	12:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Joy" by "Apollo 100 Featuring Tom Parker" Vinyl Glitches? (doesn't sound like the digital kind).
	12:55pm TDK60: Hello in-filler Tamar DJ! I just finished music practice. Now, I will turn my Ear toward "AWTY?"
	12:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:52 I'm a lunatic for any box labeled "The Complete...", actually hard to listen to them, but I love getting them.
	12:56pm coelacanth∅: RR one thing i sometimes do when my only source of something i really like is a lossy file is dub it to cassette tape. then usually back again (to a flac file). it obviously lowers the quality, technically; but it smooths out some of those ugly digital artifacts.
	12:57pm coelacanth∅: my parents had that apollo 100 45. very good to hear that again, in all it's crackly glory.
	12:58pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Phillippe @12:52 hey, Phillippe!
	1:00pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ TDK60 @12:55 Hello TDK60!
	1:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @12:56 I had the little Miles & Gil Evans thing - a brass spine like a trumpet ! Wish I coulda held onto that !! Just to have the files would be great ...but actual artifact in that case is kewl... Columbia Legacy is the example often pointed to for how a Label can do this right - Soundwise & everything...
	1:02pm doctorjazz: I've raved about this before, but Craft Recordings released "The Birth of Bop", which is the Savoy recordings of early bebop (not Bird and Diz). I have most of this on Savoy reissues, but the packaging and sound (LPs) is great!
	1:03pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Guerra E Pace, Pollo E Brace" by "Voci Bianche di... knew this was a morricone jig....
	1:03pm Phillippe: Hey chris!
	1:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:56 Very interesting. We could evoke the entire Digital vs. Analog discussion ...I'll just note that 16bits was probly random & less than the best they could've landed on. & we've all been reduced by expanded dynamic range - & then began to long for the Artistry of Mastering Engineers who understood the limits of Analog & used it well !...
	1:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:05 *seduced by expand range...
	1:06pm coelacanth∅: ↳ doctorjazz @1:02 sometimes the packaging is just too good. the raven by the stranglers is a good example. i'm willing to let go of the music, but i want that album cover on my wall!
	1:06pm spodiodi: hello, chris, Adrew, coelacanthØ, Phillippe!
	1:07pm Phillippe: spodi!
	1:08pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:00 I believe I have all those Miles Davis Columbia sets (with the gold spines, pull out book-like sets), they're packaged terrifically. You can gripe about the presentation (historical reissues generally forgo the original album order for order of recording and alternate takes), but overall, they get high marks (The Bitches Brew set is also amazing).
	1:08pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:05 agree on all counts... seduced , and reduced!
	1:08pm coelacanth∅: greetings chris!
	1:09pm TDK60: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @1:00 Hello Andrew.
	1:10pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:08 coel!
	1:11pm northguineahills: ↳ doctorjazz @1:08 I don't have all of them, but I have quite a few...
	1:12pm coelacanth∅: i have an OLD copy of "daphnis and chloé" by Ravel. the record is scratched beyond listenable, even for my very high crackle tolerance, but i've kept it for the beautiful packaging. reproductions of gorgeous wood-cut prints, about 8 pages within a sturdy white book.
	1:14pm coelacanth∅: (actually i just looked. it's not surface noise, but it's cracked)
	1:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @1:08 Yeah. I try not to be That Artifact Guy. But some packaging is notable. ...& I'm kind of a Beatles, Hendrix, Who completist ...not like proactively acquisitive - like some people you can see online these days. I just wish I was :D ...
	1:17pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:05 There are labels releasing 24 bit (96 khz and higher), which in theory sound better (a lot depends on how good the original master is to begin with-you can't fix a bad recording with more "bits").
	1:18pm Phillippe: great set
	1:19pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:16 Pretty sure I have the complete discography of those artists (much in CD/LP form, almost all in digital, hi-rez formats as well). Probably will pass on before I get to listen to it all...
	1:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @1:17 Yeah. Get me as close to the Master as I can get ! :D
	1:23pm coelacanth∅: Leyla's channeling Bobbie Gentry
	1:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @1:19 Yeah there's - I can listen to anything they did ...but then there's - the Argentinian Pressing had an Orange label & one misspelling kind of Completist. :D With TheBeatles I can understand the Artifact trip. I don't have any resources presently - but if it happens to cross my path, I'll hold onto it... Yerknow there's people with Beatle Rooms - whatever, right ?...
	1:23pm doctorjazz: They've been reissuing remastered Beatles (for the 50 Anniversary of the albums), with some fixes by AI related technology. I have to say, they sound quite good!
	1:24pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @1:23 Giles Martin, I believe.
	1:24pm doctorjazz: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:23 I thought Roches when it started.
	1:26pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Memory Song" by "Leyla McCalla" Signed in for clicky star purposes (this and Big Thief)
	1:27pm Handy Haversack: Heading for the lakes. Thanks, Tamar. Bye, all.
	1:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @1:23 I expounded @ length on the 2009 Remasters of TheBeatles' Studio Albums : www.facebook.com... - but I have just not had the resources to obtain any of these Deluxe BoxSets for each Album coming out more recently. For TheBeatles - or TheWho for that matter.
	1:29pm Michael 98145: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 Enjoy !!
	1:29pm Phillippe: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 have fun!
	1:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: Greetings, Tamar and Tamargaritas! 🍹
	1:30pm TDK60: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 Handy, get wet, will ya?
	1:32pm TDK60: ↳ Kat in the chat @1:26 Yeah, Kat. I've been enjoying many of the more recent folkish/folkrockish acts like these, Big Thief, McCalla, Rhiannon Giddens, etc.
	1:32pm northguineahills: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 michagan has lakes?!, who knew?
	1:32pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 Not the lake where you're all itchy afterwards, I hope.
	1:32pm doctorjazz: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:27 Jealous! Enjoy!
	1:34pm Phillippe: ↳ northguineahills @1:32 They're all pretty small. Ponds, actuallly
	1:35pm spodiodi: have fun, Handy!
	1:40pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Haiti" by "Accolade" Great track!
	1:45pm northguineahills: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:32 There's a spring-fed river that is popular w/ innertubers about 40 miles from gainesville call the Itchetucknee River. We used to alway just call it the itch me touch me river....
	1:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& you came up with that yourself from Scratch...
	1:50pm doctorjazz: See me, feel me, touch me, heal me...
	1:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Zaina" by "Ry-Co Jazz" ...wull here's a delightful little track...
	1:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Welcome to Itchetucknee River, where nothing can possib-lie go wrong. Uh, possibly go wrong. That's the first thing that's ever gone wrong.
	1:57pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:56 The whole set has been great, and very danceable!
	1:59pm Tamar: Here's for your dancing pleasure, for those not dipping into summer lakes-- and for those who are.
	2:03pm northguineahills: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:57 frinkiac.com...
	2:04pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "La Cumbia del Chaca Chaca" by "Palomo/Grupo Super... si! silla bailando a cumbia!
	2:09pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Cumbia Pa' Gozar (feat. IMS & Toy Selectah" by "L... Toy Selectah is a member of the Monterrey hihop group Control Machete..
	2:16pm βrian: Just had some sweet cherries that a friend brought over from northern Michigan. There are none better.
	2:18pm northguineahills: ↳ βrian @2:16 Yoop! There it is!
	2:26pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Toubouk Ine Chihoussay" by "Etran de L'Aïr" hello all, nice track!
	2:27pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Song: "Toubouk Ine Chihoussay" by "Etran de L'Aïr" what a banger!
	2:29pm Brian in UK: This is relentless.
	2:29pm northguineahills: there's a glitch in the matrix (happens to me in my reality) 😊
	2:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Toubouk Ine Chihoussay" by "Etran de L'Aïr" Nice Scratchin' Mixmaster ! :D
	2:30pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Toubouk Ine Chihoussay" by "Etran de L'Aïr" I saw a similar band last weekend in Central Park, Mdou Moctar. I was unprepared for the high energy onslaught.
	2:30pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:26 a sahel band... no wonder i like
	2:31pm Tamar: So much for pretend you're at a concert . . .
	2:33pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Tamar @2:31 thx for stickin' w/ it
	2:35pm Funky16Corners: Good afternoon! Testify! Coming up at 3PM ET - https://wfmu.org/shows/playlists/130225
	2:39pm Tamar: Mdour Moctar is wonderful to see live!
	2:44pm doctorjazz: ↳ Tamar @2:39 I saw him a few years back at the Solid Sounds Festival, he did a KILLER set!
	2:44pm Will in Norman: ↳ Tamar @2:39 I've seen him live too, i agree! it was in Bloomington, IN 2019
	2:45pm Will in Norman: i saw imarhan, a similar band from algeria a few weeks ago. also pretty good. a very tight band, the guitarists & bassist especially
	2:47pm doctorjazz: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @1:28 RRN63-you have to learn to express yourself ;- ) I just finished reading that post (I have Facebook, but am on it as rarely as I can manage), interesting. Those reissues are not the most recent, though, over the past 3-4 years Giles Martin has remastered, yet again, the more recent Beatles albums, working backwards.
	2:48pm doctorjazz: Loved the show, Tamar, we must be there by now...
	2:55pm spodiodi: thanks for the show, Tamar
	2:56pm TDK60: Fine presentation DJ Tamar. See ya soon round these parts, I hope?
	2:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ doctorjazz @2:47 Yes - as I said - I have not resources for the SuperDeluxe boxes for each album. So ...I cannot make especially informed commentary ~ opinion about what Giles Martin has done. But it's makes for a good study in all the things we've broached in this chat ! Should it be done just because we can ?? In this case - I think the Originals as his Dad intended will always be there ...that is: for Reproducible Art - we should maybe be less precious about these things...
	2:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @2:56 ...& if you get me closer to - not only Masters - but everything the Beatles did in the Studio - I have time for it !...
	2:58pm chris in the redwoods: thanks, Tamar!
	2:58pm northguineahills: thank you so much, Tamar, it's been a treat. come back soon!
	2:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Delightful ! ~ TY Always DJ Tamar ~
	3:05pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tamar!
