	♥ 7:20pm Gary: ↳ Mxter Baba @7:18 That was quick!
	♥ 7:21pm Alex from Media: ↳ Mxter Baba @7:18 Your gif is helping me enjoy the music. Perfect.
	🇰🇷 ♥ 7:21pm Ike: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:18 Agreed that black/purple rice is similar to brown rice. Some say it’s nuttier. I’m not a fan, just like I’m not keen on brown and much prefer white rice.
	♥ 7:21pm Gary: ↳ Alex from Media @7:21 Listening now to the cassette on the bottom far left

	♥ 7:23pm Mxter Baba: ↳ Alex from Media @7:21 ha ha that's great! I swiped this from on eof SMK's programs years ago. Take a look at it enlarged for more delight!
	7:23pm peter: ↳ Ike @7:21 i've usually only known black rice as a dessert ingredient, where its nutty flavor is kind of the focus (in combination with sugar and coconut milk, etc.).. never had it as the staple with a meal
	♥ 7:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ohhmugawsh ...what amazing thing is happening here this week...
	♥ 7:24pm tom tom the pipers son: @gary...you know about the artist sudan archives?
	♥ 7:24pm Gary: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:24 YES, haha
	7:25pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Gary @7:23 My cassette bingo card is looking good!
	♥ 7:25pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Gary @7:24 jus' makin' shure
	♥ 7:25pm Alex from Media: ↳ Mxter Baba @7:23 Snickering
	7:26pm peter: ↳ Ike @7:21 red ("cargo") rice, though, especially when prepared in combination with white in some ratio, is a great accompaniment to curries
	7:27pm tim abdellah: Howdy Gary and riceficionados
	♥ 7:27pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ peter @7:23 that's interesting... i had it in a restaurant named rice on mott st. which served unadorned bowls of rice...and i guess thet served more, but i forget
	♥ 7:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...my niece thinks niche is nice...
	♥ 7:32pm chresti: ↳ Mxter Baba @7:23 Mxter Babakins! WFMU's SMK? He has a wonderland of gifs on his programme!
	♥ 7:33pm Gary: Tim and RevRab!
	♥ 7:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:31 ...but when Nietzsche stares into the niche the niche stares back @ Nietzsche...
	7:34pm Listener Gregory: You have a cassette that "is not of the highest sonic quality"??? Weird!
	7:35pm northguineahills: Gary, friends!
	♥ 7:36pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:34 It's very rare when it happens, but occasionally you do get a tape with less-than-high-definition-audio
	♥ 7:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:33 ghow does leroy nieman figure into this...?
	♥ 7:36pm Gary: NGH!
	♥ 7:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:36 ...Nieman was nice - but no man for my niece...
	♥ 7:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:38 neither niece?..
	7:40pm tim abdellah: Whoa - i was just trying to find an old music blog that had sudanese tapes and stumbled across this project out of Oakland! theworld.org...
	7:41pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:34 still not at maggie hertz's level of 'fidelity'.
	♥ 7:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: As the MC5 said - I hear a lot of talk - from a lot of honkies - sittin' on a lot of money - saying they're the highest sonic quality ! ...but if you ask me ...this is the highest sonic quality ! This is the highest sonic quality ! ...well ...something like that...
	♥ 7:42pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @7:40 Holy bananas! I didn't know about that one; thanks, Tim!
	7:43pm northguineahills: a shame cell phone mp3's replaced cassettes as the preferred medium for sharing music in the north africa. (dj /rupture goes in depth about it in his book).
	♥ 7:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:39 No. Neither Nietzsche nor Nieman are men in a niche for either niece.
	7:44pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Gary @7:36 I find if I play a cassette through my Linn $25,000 player (playback only; the recorder is a separate unit) and feed it into my cassette-only tube pre-amp, it comes out pretty well, so long as the speakers are at least 6" tall. (Separate subwoofer should not be necessary if the speakers are good.)
	♥ 7:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:43 ...capiche ??...
	♥ 7:45pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @7:40 Tim, she's in Oakland! You gotta meet her!
	♥ 7:47pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:43 nietzche and neiman could have been neighbors if they married your nieces...wouldn't that be nice
	7:48pm tim abdellah: ↳ Gary @7:45 Inchallah!
	7:48pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:43 nyet?
	♥ 7:49pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Love and Circumstances الحب والظروف" by "Muhammad... Visions of riding in tricked out cab navigating some random sudanese town.
	♥ 7:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:47 You'd practically be a nephew - once removed. Just this moment I apologize for distracting from these Musics with silly wordplay ...Sudanly I'm embarassed...
	♥ 7:52pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Alex from Media @7:49 you might want to hold off on those visions... a civil war ...probably not make it out of that cab alive
	♥ 7:53pm tom tom the pipers son: ha!
	♥ 7:54pm doctorjazz: ↳ northguineahills @7:43 I was in Africa last summer (posted this before), Rwanda and Kenya. I asked about records, CD's, recorded music wherever I went, people looked me with a blank stare. Finally, one person realized what I wanted, and told me, "Oh, nobody uses those, we just download our music on a thumb drive".
	♥ 7:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:44 ;- ) (Think I'm the butt of that, but that's cool!)
	♥ 7:55pm Alex from Media: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:52 Ha yeah, that trip is way on hold if ever it was planned. But you know the sort of jalopy that needs the heat running in summer to cool the engine but the cabbies blasting some tiny radio with the current pop standards.
	♥ 7:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yeah ...seems the places to take a random cab safely on planet Earth of a Wed. evening are get fewer...
	♥ 7:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:56 are getting...
	♥ 7:57pm Mxter Baba: ↳ chresti @7:32 yes! though most of them trigger me a little!
	♥ 7:58pm Mxter Baba: ↳ tim abdellah @7:40 so cool! thanks!
	♥ 7:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:44 I may be a filthy Socialist ...but if I won the big Lottery - I'd have a g-dam Theater in the crib, man. Be listening to the FMUs on a freakin' spaceship like.
	8:00pm peter: this intro sounds so bollywood
	♥ 8:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Alex from Media @7:55 in kolkata they have a big 1950' style car, i think the ambassador, used for cabs... crazy drivers , no lanes, blaring horns, saw no accidents
	♥ 8:03pm Mxter Baba: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:59 I live less than 5 miles from where the 1.3 billion dollar winning ticket was recently sold
	8:03pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:49 i just woke from a nap, no nominal nocturnal nefarious notorious niche novelist's non-natalist's nicks notations nor nephews in alliterations tonight.....
	8:06pm northguineahills: ↳ doctorjazz @7:54 in NYE '99 in rural jamaica, i took a trip to Port Antonio. Not only did they not have vinyl, but only cdrs. I had better luck in Mexico in '07-'12.
	8:06pm northguineahills: having a beer, and getting some street Mexi corn elote, or maybe papusas....
	♥ 8:07pm Gary: ↳ northguineahills @8:06 Nice! I'm just having a beer and am famished
	♥ 8:07pm coelacanth∅: Good evening Gary
	♥ 8:08pm Gary: Coelacanth!
	8:08pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @8:06 corn elote, now that's interlingually redundant....
	8:08pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @7:55 Not at all!
	♥ 8:08pm chresti: ↳ Mxter Baba @8:03 Gee whiz! I have to start buying winning lottery tx!
	8:11pm Listener Gregory: Happy Arab-American Heritage Month, everyone! John Schaefer put together a show on New Sounds featuring the work of Arab Americans that might be of interest to listeners of this show: www.newsounds.org...
	♥ 8:12pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:11 Sweet! Thanks, Gregory
	♥ 8:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mxter Baba @8:03 ...yerknow ...just the .3 wouldn't be too bad a day...
	8:16pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:11 shkran lak!
	8:18pm northguineahills: you've probably covered already, but this show is very apropos since the nation has imploded into civil war, and all the civilian suffering it entails in the last year.
	8:23pm Listener Gregory: I found that Al Suraya unexpected.
	8:24pm mmzm: hello
	8:25pm northguineahills: my corner bodega is staffed my Mexicans and Yemenis. So, I chat them up a bit...
	8:25pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @8:25 (and seem to be trilingual)
	8:27pm northguineahills: (wish i knew arabic outside of a few words, but semetic languages are hard!)
	♥ 8:28pm Gary: Mmzm!
	♥ 8:28pm coelacanth∅: ↳ northguineahills @8:25 i'm trylingual... i try to learn other languages.
	8:29pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:28 snerfle!
	♥ 8:30pm doctorjazz: Gotta run, thanks, Gary!
	8:30pm tim abdellah: I found that old blog I was trying to remember. The blog was sudanesemusicblog.wordpress.com and the corresponding YouTube channel was called American fan of Sudanese music. Looks like it started up in 2018. The person deleted the blog in 2021, and YouTube removed the channel for "multiple third-party claims of copyright infringement". I think the site was a little information-lite to hold my attention, but I did download some music from there
	♥ 8:30pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "M. Al Franqabia م. الفرنقبية" by "Hafez Abdel Rah... That stuttering rhythm reminds me of a track from my life n the bush of ghosts.
	♥ 8:31pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @8:30 Oh, shoot -- I don't know if I ever even knew about that one
	♥ 8:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I'm fluent in basic Astrologese - understand a certain amount of Music Nerd & Monster Kid ...& struggle with the Englishes...
	8:37pm TDK60: Hola Gary.
	8:37pm Listener Gregory: Gary, a pro-tip. The proper term for a group of cassettes is not "a pile of cassettes." It is "a tangle of cassettes." (Don't ask about crows.)
	♥ 8:37pm Gary: Speaking of Tangles of Tapes: TDK60!
	8:40pm Dean: Re: SMB, archive.org has this: https://archive.org/details/DeepCutsFromSudaneseMusicBlogVol1
	♥ 8:41pm Gary: Dean! Thank you
	8:46pm northguineahills: ↳ tim abdellah @8:30 grimble grumble (bleeding YT)
	8:47pm Carmichael: Heya Gary and intellectuals.
	8:48pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Carmichael @8:47 I feel left out.

	♥ 8:49pm Gary: Carmichael!
	8:50pm Carmichael: Hi to you too, Listener Gregory 😄

	8:53pm tim abdellah: ↳ Dean @8:40 Hey Dean - thanks!
	8:53pm headcleaner: Evening + salam, peoples
	♥ 8:54pm Gary: Headcleaner!
	8:55pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Carmichael @8:50 Thank you. I am trying to read a book so that I can join the intellectuals. However, all the words are a kind of problem.
	♥ 8:58pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tim abdellah @8:53 this set has gotten more so, feels like....just said addis because of wondering about cross border influences
	♥ 9:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:58 but this sudanese music doesn't seem rooted in city as ethiopian music
	9:01pm Listener Gregory: Did you ever read one of those newspaper headlines you feel you have to share with someone, but no one will talk to you except posters on a radio comment board? Well, that happened to me today, as my local paper has the headline: "Alleged dog feces flinger faces resisting arrest charges." Try saying that 5 times fast.
	♥ 9:01pm Gary: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:58 Me, too -- definitely hear things that sound Ethiopian-y/influenced, but it's somehow more ... panoramic feeling
	9:02pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:01 This comment is not strictly related to Sudanese music, per se.
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:04pm mackeral: hey folks!
	9:04pm Dean: So, the alleged feces flinger also allegedly resisted arrest. What the hell else is the person allegedly up to?!
	♥ 9:04pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Gary @9:01 yes ethiopian more cosmopolitan, a little city/country contrast
	♥ 9:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:02 ...given the conflicts ...maybe it makes sense...
	9:07pm Dean: The bored people who continue to listen really miss Kenny G.'s show.
	9:08pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:04 Amharic, also a Semitic language
	♥ 9:09pm chresti: I don't think I've ever listened to that show?
	9:09pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Dean @9:04 After being arrested, she went to the ground and spun around and around, announcing that she was going to do that all day.
	♥ 9:09pm Gary: Makeral!
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:10pm mackeral: ↳ tim abdellah @7:40 wild!
	♥ 9:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:09 Is she the Angus in an AC/DC Tribute Band ? ...the spinning part that is...
	9:11pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:09 Speaking of mackeral, the alleged feces flinger was apprehended carrying a bag of raw fish, which she told police she was going to fling at another neighbor's house. Tuesday is her busiest day, apparently.
	♥ 9:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:10 ...the flinging could be G.G. Allin ...she's both maybe...
	9:12pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:11 I am not familiar with their work, but it sounds like a possible strong defense.
	♥ 9:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:11 ...okay. I don't know a RawkStar who distributed sushi...
	♥ 9:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:12 ...perhaps she's an Original Artist after all...
	♥ 9:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:13 ...if not a niche I'll stare into...
	♥ 9:14pm chresti: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:01 What newspaper?
	9:14pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:13 Performance art is not dead.
	9:14pm Listener Gregory: ↳ chresti @9:14 The Brattleboro Reformer. Didn't you get your copy today??
	♥ 9:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:14 Evidently.
	♥ 9:16pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:08 sudan arabic, mostly right...
	9:16pm Dean: On a recent cab ride return from Oakland International Airport the driver was on a phone call when I entered the vehicle. He was speaking in a foreign language. When he finished and we were on the road, I asked if he was speaking Amharic. He did a double-take, as if to ask, "How did you know that"? Well, I spent a very brief amount of time many decades ago exploring the language. A similar thing happened with Navajo. In each case, the resources I used to study the language were at my public library.
	♥ 9:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:14 Oh ! Up here North NewEngland. Hurray.
	♥ 9:17pm chresti: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:01 Maybe they're related to persons that like to smear the brown stuff on tennis booths ?
	9:17pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @9:16 that's how i found my out half of my bodega lads were Yemeni. I can't speak or understand Arabic, but I know what it sounds like.
	9:17pm Listener Gregory: ↳ chresti @9:14 To be clear, most of the newspaper was devoted to hard news, such as the front-page story on preparations for celebrating the 4/20 pot holiday.
	9:18pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:16 oh, i thought we were talking about Ethiopia...
	9:18pm Listener Gregory: ↳ chresti @9:17 Tennis booths?
	♥ 9:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ chresti @9:17 ...not to say the chambers of Congress...
	9:19pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Amir أمير" by "Abdel Karim al-Kabili عبد الكريم ا... This Sugar album is a keeper.
	♥ 9:19pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:18 about possible musical influences between sudan and ethiopia
	9:25pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:19 there's the blue nile corridor....
	♥ 9:26pm tom tom the pipers son: one other detail that separates ethiopia from sudan apparently is the western influences mostly from america of r'n'b, soul and jazz
	♥ 9:27pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:25 which signifies...?
	♥ 9:30pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Akhar Al Jaza آخر الجزاء" by "Ahmed Al Jaberi أحم... quite "jazzy"
	♥ 9:33pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:25 wondering if you mean it is some geographic language zone
	♥ 9:34pm tom tom the pipers son: jaberi has had the most swing
	♥ 9:35pm Alex from Media: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:34 Agreed. Very easy for western ears.
	9:36pm Dean: One of my ears is western, but the other is eastern. The alternative is one northern, one southern. How do I resolve this conundrum?
	♥ 9:37pm chresti: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:17 Important undertaking.
	9:37pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:27 the historical commercial and cultural interactions from Aksum to Khartoum via the Blue Nile
	♥ 9:38pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @9:36 and you have eyes on the back of your head
	♥ 9:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dean @9:36 ...you could traverse the axis not covered by ears by moving your entire self. Choose carefully...
	♥ 9:39pm Alex from Media: ↳ Dean @9:36 lying down you can have an upper and lower ear.
	♥ 9:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:37 aha thanks
	♥ 9:39pm chresti: Very much enjoying the programme tonight, Gary!
	♥ 9:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Alex from Media @9:39 Indeed ! 45° angles ...possibilities ...simply stay in rotation like a radar antenna in movies...
	♥ 9:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ chresti @9:39 This ain't nothin' but a treat.
	♥ 9:42pm Alex from Media: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:40 I need to. Ramones 1980 left a lasting "impression" on one of my ears.
	9:42pm Carmichael: Turn your head, dean
	♥ 9:45pm Gary: Hey Listeners and Listenables! Stick around after the listening here has gone sour and BRACE yourself for the always already BRIGHT and BUSHY Sam Segal and If You Lose Your Horse! Tonight's episode: "Listen: These Are Its Hooves: It Has Gone Off, Like a Horse" wfmu.org...
	9:45pm tim abdellah: Damn this is good!

	9:46pm Listener Gregory: Gary, the secret to getting people to check out your Facebook, Twitter, etc. accounts is to advise them to “join the conversation.” Apparently, that is irresistible.
	♥ 9:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Albarid Wa'ana البريد وأنا" by "Emad Youssef عماد... nice sax
	♥ 9:46pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @9:45 This is a decidedly not unsatisfying cassette-length album!
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:46pm mackeral: ↳ Song: "Albarid Wa'ana البريد وأنا" by "Emad Youssef عماد... this is wonderful
	9:47pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:39 aksum is the pre-moderb name for ethiopia. The ties b/tn and Khartoum are documented to at least the third egyptian dynasty.
	♥ 9:47pm Alex from Media: I fear that I'll never be able to stream most of my faves from this playlist. Bottled up in casettes like genies.
	9:48pm Dean: I just completed a somersault and cartwheel. Suddenly, I hear all!
	9:48pm tim abdellah: ↳ mackeral @9:10 Hey Mack! is that a pastrami sandwich and do you pastrami and if so where?
	9:49pm Dean: I'll let my buddy mackeral chime in, tim, but please don't get me started on pastrami, let alone pastrami with googly eyes.
	9:50pm Dean: Gotta run to pick up my daughter from soccer. My unorthodox, even heretical choice for pastrami, Johnnie's Pastrami on Sepulveda, just up the road from LAX.
	9:50pm tim abdellah: ↳ Dean @9:49 👀
	9:50pm Dean: I could tell you stories about mackeral and googly eyes...
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:51pm mackeral: Johnnies, gotta go
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:52pm mackeral: I used to put eyes on burger ads on buses in the East Bay. I found it thrilling beyond measure.
	9:52pm Listener Gregory: Googly Eyes, join the conversation!
	9:52pm Dean: Jack in the Box at San Pablo & Allston. Remember the eyes on the breakfast biscuit or whatever it was?
	9:52pm tim abdellah: ↳ mackeral @9:52 LOL!
	♥ 9:53pm Alex from Media: I put googly eyes on the robotic arm at work. Makes people jump when it moves. Fun every time.
	9:53pm Dean: The Buses Have Eyes The Burgers Have Eyes
	9:53pm Dean: M'kay, bye.
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:53pm mackeral: and yes, that profile pic is a pastrami. I found it online somewhere. I've had Manny's in Chicago, but if Dean is to be believed, it might be worth going to LA for Johnnies
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:54pm mackeral: ↳ Dean @9:52 yes, that was me! I still have a roll of those stickers...
	♥ 9:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:47 u huh... thanks...

	9:56pm Listener Gregory: Gary, we need an entire show on googly eyes. Think about it.
	9:57pm tim abdellah: ↳ mackeral @9:53 Nice! I wondered whether you had any East Bay preferences
	9:57pm tim abdellah: This was super-fun, Gary! Hope you get some more Sudanese cassettes!

	🇰🇷 ♥ 7:21pm Ike: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:18 Agreed that black/purple rice is similar to brown rice. Some say it’s nuttier. I’m not a fan, just like I’m not keen on brown and much prefer white rice.

	7:23pm peter: ↳ Ike @7:21 i've usually only known black rice as a dessert ingredient, where its nutty flavor is kind of the focus (in combination with sugar and coconut milk, etc.).. never had it as the staple with a meal
	♥ 7:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ohhmugawsh ...what amazing thing is happening here this week...

	♥ 7:27pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ peter @7:23 that's interesting... i had it in a restaurant named rice on mott st. which served unadorned bowls of rice...and i guess thet served more, but i forget

	7:34pm Listener Gregory: You have a cassette that "is not of the highest sonic quality"??? Weird!
	7:35pm northguineahills: Gary, friends!
	♥ 7:36pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:34 It's very rare when it happens, but occasionally you do get a tape with less-than-high-definition-audio
	♥ 7:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:33 ghow does leroy nieman figure into this...?
	♥ 7:36pm Gary: NGH!
	♥ 7:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:36 ...Nieman was nice - but no man for my niece...

	7:41pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:34 still not at maggie hertz's level of 'fidelity'.
	♥ 7:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: As the MC5 said - I hear a lot of talk - from a lot of honkies - sittin' on a lot of money - saying they're the highest sonic quality ! ...but if you ask me ...this is the highest sonic quality ! This is the highest sonic quality ! ...well ...something like that...
	♥ 7:42pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @7:40 Holy bananas! I didn't know about that one; thanks, Tim!
	7:43pm northguineahills: a shame cell phone mp3's replaced cassettes as the preferred medium for sharing music in the north africa. (dj /rupture goes in depth about it in his book).
	♥ 7:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:39 No. Neither Nietzsche nor Nieman are men in a niche for either niece.
	7:44pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Gary @7:36 I find if I play a cassette through my Linn $25,000 player (playback only; the recorder is a separate unit) and feed it into my cassette-only tube pre-amp, it comes out pretty well, so long as the speakers are at least 6" tall. (Separate subwoofer should not be necessary if the speakers are good.)
	♥ 7:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:43 ...capiche ??...
	♥ 7:45pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @7:40 Tim, she's in Oakland! You gotta meet her!

	♥ 7:52pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Alex from Media @7:49 you might want to hold off on those visions... a civil war ...probably not make it out of that cab alive
	♥ 7:53pm tom tom the pipers son: ha!
	♥ 7:54pm doctorjazz: ↳ northguineahills @7:43 I was in Africa last summer (posted this before), Rwanda and Kenya. I asked about records, CD's, recorded music wherever I went, people looked me with a blank stare. Finally, one person realized what I wanted, and told me, "Oh, nobody uses those, we just download our music on a thumb drive".
	♥ 7:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:44 ;- ) (Think I'm the butt of that, but that's cool!)
	♥ 7:55pm Alex from Media: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:52 Ha yeah, that trip is way on hold if ever it was planned. But you know the sort of jalopy that needs the heat running in summer to cool the engine but the cabbies blasting some tiny radio with the current pop standards.
	♥ 7:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yeah ...seems the places to take a random cab safely on planet Earth of a Wed. evening are get fewer...
	♥ 7:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:56 are getting...
	♥ 7:57pm Mxter Baba: ↳ chresti @7:32 yes! though most of them trigger me a little!

	♥ 7:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:44 I may be a filthy Socialist ...but if I won the big Lottery - I'd have a g-dam Theater in the crib, man. Be listening to the FMUs on a freakin' spaceship like.
	8:00pm peter: this intro sounds so bollywood
	♥ 8:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Alex from Media @7:55 in kolkata they have a big 1950' style car, i think the ambassador, used for cabs... crazy drivers , no lanes, blaring horns, saw no accidents

	8:03pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:49 i just woke from a nap, no nominal nocturnal nefarious notorious niche novelist's non-natalist's nicks notations nor nephews in alliterations tonight.....
	8:06pm northguineahills: ↳ doctorjazz @7:54 in NYE '99 in rural jamaica, i took a trip to Port Antonio. Not only did they not have vinyl, but only cdrs. I had better luck in Mexico in '07-'12.
	8:06pm northguineahills: having a beer, and getting some street Mexi corn elote, or maybe papusas....
	♥ 8:07pm Gary: ↳ northguineahills @8:06 Nice! I'm just having a beer and am famished

	8:18pm northguineahills: you've probably covered already, but this show is very apropos since the nation has imploded into civil war, and all the civilian suffering it entails in the last year.
	8:23pm Listener Gregory: I found that Al Suraya unexpected.

	♥ 8:30pm doctorjazz: Gotta run, thanks, Gary!
	8:30pm tim abdellah: I found that old blog I was trying to remember. The blog was sudanesemusicblog.wordpress.com and the corresponding YouTube channel was called American fan of Sudanese music. Looks like it started up in 2018. The person deleted the blog in 2021, and YouTube removed the channel for "multiple third-party claims of copyright infringement". I think the site was a little information-lite to hold my attention, but I did download some music from there

	8:37pm TDK60: Hola Gary.
	8:37pm Listener Gregory: Gary, a pro-tip. The proper term for a group of cassettes is not "a pile of cassettes." It is "a tangle of cassettes." (Don't ask about crows.)

	8:55pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Carmichael @8:50 Thank you. I am trying to read a book so that I can join the intellectuals. However, all the words are a kind of problem.
	♥ 8:58pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tim abdellah @8:53 this set has gotten more so, feels like....just said addis because of wondering about cross border influences
	♥ 9:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:58 but this sudanese music doesn't seem rooted in city as ethiopian music
	9:01pm Listener Gregory: Did you ever read one of those newspaper headlines you feel you have to share with someone, but no one will talk to you except posters on a radio comment board? Well, that happened to me today, as my local paper has the headline: "Alleged dog feces flinger faces resisting arrest charges." Try saying that 5 times fast.
	♥ 9:01pm Gary: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:58 Me, too -- definitely hear things that sound Ethiopian-y/influenced, but it's somehow more ... panoramic feeling
	9:02pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:01 This comment is not strictly related to Sudanese music, per se.
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:04pm mackeral: hey folks!
	9:04pm Dean: So, the alleged feces flinger also allegedly resisted arrest. What the hell else is the person allegedly up to?!
	♥ 9:04pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Gary @9:01 yes ethiopian more cosmopolitan, a little city/country contrast
	♥ 9:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:02 ...given the conflicts ...maybe it makes sense...
	9:07pm Dean: The bored people who continue to listen really miss Kenny G.'s show.
	9:08pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:04 Amharic, also a Semitic language
	♥ 9:09pm chresti: I don't think I've ever listened to that show?
	9:09pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Dean @9:04 After being arrested, she went to the ground and spun around and around, announcing that she was going to do that all day.
	♥ 9:09pm Gary: Makeral!
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:10pm mackeral: ↳ tim abdellah @7:40 wild!
	♥ 9:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:09 Is she the Angus in an AC/DC Tribute Band ? ...the spinning part that is...
	9:11pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:09 Speaking of mackeral, the alleged feces flinger was apprehended carrying a bag of raw fish, which she told police she was going to fling at another neighbor's house. Tuesday is her busiest day, apparently.
	♥ 9:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:10 ...the flinging could be G.G. Allin ...she's both maybe...
	9:12pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:11 I am not familiar with their work, but it sounds like a possible strong defense.
	♥ 9:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:11 ...okay. I don't know a RawkStar who distributed sushi...
	♥ 9:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:12 ...perhaps she's an Original Artist after all...
	♥ 9:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:13 ...if not a niche I'll stare into...
	♥ 9:14pm chresti: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:01 What newspaper?

	9:14pm Listener Gregory: ↳ chresti @9:14 The Brattleboro Reformer. Didn't you get your copy today??
	♥ 9:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:14 Evidently.
	♥ 9:16pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:08 sudan arabic, mostly right...
	9:16pm Dean: On a recent cab ride return from Oakland International Airport the driver was on a phone call when I entered the vehicle. He was speaking in a foreign language. When he finished and we were on the road, I asked if he was speaking Amharic. He did a double-take, as if to ask, "How did you know that"? Well, I spent a very brief amount of time many decades ago exploring the language. A similar thing happened with Navajo. In each case, the resources I used to study the language were at my public library.
	♥ 9:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:14 Oh ! Up here North NewEngland. Hurray.
	♥ 9:17pm chresti: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:01 Maybe they're related to persons that like to smear the brown stuff on tennis booths ?
	9:17pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @9:16 that's how i found my out half of my bodega lads were Yemeni. I can't speak or understand Arabic, but I know what it sounds like.
	9:17pm Listener Gregory: ↳ chresti @9:14 To be clear, most of the newspaper was devoted to hard news, such as the front-page story on preparations for celebrating the 4/20 pot holiday.
	9:18pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:16 oh, i thought we were talking about Ethiopia...
	9:18pm Listener Gregory: ↳ chresti @9:17 Tennis booths?
	♥ 9:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ chresti @9:17 ...not to say the chambers of Congress...

	9:42pm Carmichael: Turn your head, dean

	9:48pm tim abdellah: ↳ mackeral @9:10 Hey Mack! is that a pastrami sandwich and do you pastrami and if so where?
	9:49pm Dean: I'll let my buddy mackeral chime in, tim, but please don't get me started on pastrami, let alone pastrami with googly eyes.
