	9:12am glenn: all right. i was wr wr wr.
	9:14am LovecraftDude888: was saying prev. show gonna supp. snow/freez. rain overnight to Wed. here in NYC area ...again! haha
	9:20am Marcel M: I just saw that LovecarfDude... I'm not happy. I work outside.
	9:20am bibi: hi all. apparently you can skate on italo disco.
	9:22am paula pc: what an excellent cover idea -- had no idea this existed!
	9:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I do have a Y-chromosome - but S.Hoffs just does it for me...
	9:24am common: i like their voices together.
	9:24am AndrewC.: I was just thinking this was one of those trendy 80's revival hauntological groups - then I see its actually susannah hoffs. Authentic!
	9:25am Roberto: Bangles on HIMYM last night.
	9:28am dale: was wondering why lindsay buckingham needed to be covered, but i liked it!
	9:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - I think ? JoeB said it was a wasted opportunity to reinterpret - but I'm impressed w/ them as Producers on 'under the covers'...
	9:33am Chris from DC: Digging this Scientist.
	9:33am Trouble: i'm timing how long it takes for the hate to flow...
	9:33am Trouble: gotta love this man's voice, no matter the bad facial hair
	9:33am glenn: hate oozes.
	9:34am SeanG: I love this stuff
	9:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - always wanted for a 24/7 stream of bitchin' dub...
	9:34am Trouble: yacht rock is the cure for the winter blues
	9:35am Trouble: ok maybe not
	9:35am paula pc: no hate here
	9:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - actually not an overplayed track - @ least for me - so point taken...
	9:36am dale: pre michael macdonald doobies are just alright with me.
	9:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it's good white soul produced too slick is all...
	9:37am bobdoesthings: morning all, hey marcel!
	9:38am Marcel M: Morning Bob!
	9:39am duke: Freeform means "Play it, damn the consequences"
	9:39am Andy from Atlanta: Michael McDonald sings a lot of songs that sound like the closing credits to SNL.
	9:39am glenn: i agree with dale. once that insidious simpering oaf macdonald came on board, the doobies were dead to me.
	9:39am PKNY: I need to commission someone to make me a painting of Michael McDonald and Christopher Cross riding like the wind to the border of Mexico.
	9:40am common: @glenn: absolutely!
	9:40am common: @pkny: ha hee!!!
	9:42am neilwarren: Bill Payne's piano made that track!
	9:42am PKNY: Woah, just checked the Wikipedia page for "Ride like the Wind": What you probably didn't know about the song: Christopher Cross was on acid when he wrote the lyrics. "We were living in Houston at the time, and on the way down to Austin to record the songs, it was just a beautiful Texas day," he told us. "I took acid. So I wrote the words on the way down from Houston to Austin on acid."
	9:45am glenn: hmmmmm. number of songs written while stoned on acid - too many to count. number of no-hitters thrown while stoned on acid - 1.
	9:45am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I didn't mind the sax! - I think the quickest way to a crap sound is cheap slick electronic keyboard ...the Production philosophy of Yacht Rock is to take all the Edges off - like audio Koons w/ no irony - if that even makes sense; it's the opposite of Authenticity to the ears & tastes of some of us...
	9:45am koto@kanagawa: good morning Trouble and all, and good night...i'll be soon dreaming me skating on the huge art.
	9:47am PKNY: @glenn - Ok, so replace Michael McDonald with Dock Ellis in that painting.
	9:48am glenn: i can work with that.
	9:49am glenn: actually, the doobies would have been better if they had replaced macdonald with dock ellis.
	9:50am northguineahills: I've must have been MIA for a while, never noticed this B&S release.
	9:51am common: @rev rabbit: I agree. the cheap keyboard sound makes my head throb. @pkny christopher cross on acid. never woulda thunk it.
	9:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - of course, you might use a cheap slick keyboard sound in a >context< that would work...
	9:54am Brian in UK: Hello trouble. Always trying to see the bigger picture.
	9:57am emily: loving the music this morning, trouble. thanks!
	9:57am Trouble: hey brian! you got it!
	9:59am bobdoesthings: Right click on image, click view image (while holding command on a mac to open in new tab in firefox) - see the image fit to screen. Or just.. here - blogfiles.wfmu.org...
	10:00am Marcel M: Bob.... your a genius!
	10:00am bobdoesthings: you're* and yeah, duh.
	10:01am Marcel M: Oh you just can't resist correcting people....
	10:02am bibi: thx bob, now i realise it figures a sewer system map. and a duck.
	10:02am Brian in UK: Looking forward to hearing Bill Callahan & Alasdair Roberts this weekend.
	10:02am bobdoesthings: hehehehe
	10:07am Brian in UK: I do not normally like to see roadkill but this week I have seen two foxes lying prone in the road. I smiled quietly to myself. It was cheap but some small recompense for our chickens slaughtered.
	10:08am glenn: hey! foxes rock. and besides, what's the difference between foxes slaughtering them and you slaughtering them?
	10:10am βrian: We keep our chickens in enclosures, so the fox can watch.
	10:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Google: 'this child that I had you done' ...??...
	10:14am Brian in UK: Our chooks are for eggs only. You would not want to eat them at their age. @βrian I thought our fencing was sufficient. WRONG. They came mob handed. Should move to the country. All the foxes have gone urban.
	10:15am NotFromHere: Hey Revolution Rabbit. Basically he's asking her what she's done with the child he made with her, and she doesn't seem to even recognize him, and keeps flirting with him instead of answering.
	10:17am bobdoesthings: I keep my chicken in the freezer... sorry couldn't help myself
	10:17am NotFromHere: The whole song is making fun of the gooey romance songs that were popular over here at the time.
	10:17am Brian in UK: Kevin Morby reminds me of The Clientele.
	10:17am Snortley: I know a couple who raise free-range chickens in Vermont. They leave out the less-edible parts for the local foxes to keep them away from the live birds.
	10:18am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cheers NFH
	10:18am bibi: @rev rabbit : im working but lyrics of that b. fontaine song disturbed me (again). more or less : they lost a baby, but literally. they dont know where they've put it last...
	10:18am βrian: So the chickens are all amputees?
	10:18am bibi: sorry didnt see @notfromhere comment. you got it.
	10:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the plot thickens...cut w/ chickens...
	10:19am NotFromHere: The juxtaposition of lost babies and amputee chickens... Is that a topic or...? @bibi no worries at all, two answers are better than none, plus we agree.
	10:21am Brian in UK: Our plot thickened with chicken blood. Six out of eight were taken This myth about just killing is exactly that. Cubs to feed.
	10:22am Snortley: After slaughter, of course. Funny thing about their free-range practices; although the birds are allowed to go anywhere on the farm, they choose to huddle together in a mass in one corner of the barn.
	10:23am NotFromHere: They're scared, they've heard tales of amputee chickens being fed to foxes and wayward babies.
	10:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...there'll be payback when they let the chickenosaurs come to term...
	10:24am Brian in UK: Many people are scared of chickens, think it is the way they run t'wards you and the nip from beaks.
	10:24am northguineahills: Well, that and in the wild, they wouldn't have prey in an enclosed space that didn't have effective means of escape (domestic chickens). Also, being able to stash a kill for later w/o actually being able to do so effectively, either by being startled or being unable to.
	10:27am Brian in UK: There is one woman on our allotments that FEEDS the foxes. Saints preserve us.
	10:28am Snortley: blogfiles.wfmu.org...
	10:30am Brian in UK: Is that last track Snail Love?
	10:33am Brian in UK: Looks like a great film. www.youtube.com...
	10:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - shame they can't just feed on the American GreySquirrels over there (we are sorry)...even Eastern Buddhists are killing (non-native) racoons to save their ancient wood temples...
	10:37am bobdoesthings: Anyone know if Josephine Foster is ever going to do another album with "The Supposed" ?
	10:41am Hotel Califorina: This reminds me of something.
	10:54am Davee: you mean "Is she Supposed to"?
	10:55am Brian in UK: Got 'Static' for a Christmas present, still not sure about it. Not the spark of the first album. Ah broken relationships.
	10:56am bobdoesthings: @davee - ?? Hmm.. there was an album out like 10 years ago by Josephine Foster and The Supposed. Two guys playing with her, electric.. great album called "All the Leaves Are Gone" ... I was hoping they'd put out something else.. but nothing :( I was curious if anyone knew anything about that
	10:57am Davee: The Bird songs got everyones attention here at the office
	10:57am Davee: No problem - just having pun
	10:58am βrian: @E: Is your office full of cats, too?
	10:59am Davee: Can you take something when you are ornery?
	10:59am Priscilla: Flamethrowers - Yay!
	11:00am βrian: To make you more ornery: pronounce the final 'n' in "Fontaine."
	11:00am Davee: @Brian - interesting you should ask that . . .
	11:01am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Trouble - this gif pretty much sums up how I feel about this winter. gph.is...
	11:02am earrie: Microcosmos ! That's an amazing film. Just found that 'l'amour des escargots' scene, here. youtu.be.com...
	11:02am john: Is John Lee Hooker talking about catnip there?
	11:03am Peter: Thanks for the huge visual shout out Trouble! :)
	11:04am earrie: Er, youtu.be...
	11:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I posted two stream addresses for Birdsong @ 10:01 on the Jan. 21 playlist if more cats are bored...
	11:06am Sem Chumbo: Tardy, but happy the first thing I hear is John Lee Hooker. Thanks, Trouble.
	11:08am βrian: When will "Dinah" again be the trendy new baby name?
	11:10am Sem Chumbo: @earrie: pleasantly lubricious, and what a singer. Thx.
	11:11am Davee: @Brian - When she blows her horn?
	11:11am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I got 'Microcosmos' on VHS ! ...checkin' that YT: ..some snails are pretty 'quick' - nudge nudge...
	11:12am Brian in UK: The birdsong station over here has closed now. CDs available. www.radiobirdsong.com
	11:15am Priscilla: This reminds me of Television
	11:16am Trouble: i hear you jennique!
	11:16am bibi: it is a known path, but this forsyth has his own way on it.
	11:20am βrian: "Dinah is not in the top 1000 names for any year of birth in the last 14 years. Please enter another name." Ouch! I like Dinah.
	11:21am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: The name Dinah always makes me think of the song, I've Been Working on the Railroad. "Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah..."
	11:22am earrie: Gastropoda - the chunk o' Mollusca that live in air (land), salt water, freshwater, you name it. And the nudibranchs, nudies going without a shell, even.
	11:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - it's perhaps ? considered a colloquial version of Diana...I agree, I like it... ...some YT watchers have the shell fetish - some prefer nudi...
	11:25am Brian in UK: Calm down, earrie.
	11:25am dale: wow, this vashti is pop confection done to perfection. loog oldham-ish, to boot.
	11:27am Davee: this is shaking my world!
	11:27am earrie: I love and admire the range of ecosystems Gastropods have evolved to inhabit. Is it that obvious?
	11:29am Whosondephone: Those accidentals are hurting my head!
	11:30am Trouble: hey peter!!!yeah seattle
	11:31am βrian: Butter and garlic — my favorite ecosystem.
	11:32am Sem Chumbo: @Brian: two crucial food groups.
	11:32am Brian in UK: I used to get a lot of stick at skool because of Brian the snail in the Magic Roundabout. A French childrens programme bought by BBC and the names Anglised.
	11:33am Davee: Brian does not seem to be the right name for a snail . . .
	11:33am Brian in UK: Mollusc is a beautiful word.
	11:33am Davee: Perhaps Sheldon?
	11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...almost wish I smoked ganja again to hear this dub: smoke enuff & you'd feel you were going right away w/ an echo that crazy...
	11:34am Brian in UK: The rabbit was called Dylan. Hey.
	11:34am Davee: Is Mollusc french for Mull over?
	11:34am Trouble: put up a link on the facebook page for a collaboration lonnie holley did with some artists he is mixing with at the robert rauschenberg artists colony down florida way, fab stuff! www.facebook.com...
	11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...snails usually have a lot of stick...
	11:35am βrian: Gaston would work. Gaston the Gastronome.
	11:37am Guido (Cologne): If Vashti Bunyan had some success stayed with Immediate, would she have been "more lucky"? I guess maybe not really.
	11:37am earrie: Yeah and a tasty edible too.
	11:42am Brian in UK: Great show, trouble. Gotta cut & run.
	11:42am northguineahills: Yeah, you have to quarantine the snails and feed them fresh clean veggies for a week or so, then starve for a few days before the arduous task of boiling and cooking them multiple times to get rid of the slime. In Nigeria, the use some sort of lye on the giant African land snails to remove the slime, if I remember correctly. I want to try some.
	11:44am Trouble: merci brian! ciao!
	11:45am Davee: Nice Miles tune - perfect for today
	11:45am LovecraftDude888: just cleaned off car..that was fun
	11:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - still always very happy to hear 'Kind of Blue'.
	11:46am LovecraftDude888: wet snow though...easier a bit
	11:46am LovecraftDude888: more like Slush Dude888
	11:47am Giulio: First time listening and you play Miles, Love you already! BTW it is almost 6 pm here in Italy so it's kinda the perfect mood!
	11:47am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Kind of Dude.
	11:48am Sem Chumbo: Really enjoyed this Miles Davis bio the other evening from 2001: www.youtube.com...
	11:50am LovecraftDude888: oh Rabbit....this sucks hard winter of doom
	11:50am John Juan de San Antonio: Nothing worse than when "Freddie Freeloader" comes on and then the DJ starts yammerin' over it the time, weather, traffic, concert promotions, etc. Thank you for not doing that. My local jazz station always does just that though.
	11:51am LovecraftDude888: and now for the hog report.....today in hog news...bla bla
	11:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cheers Sem! ...the way Trane comes in on this is one of my favorite things in the world: he's got stuff he's ready to say awlright...
	11:54am Trouble: cheerio, thanks for all the good vibes peeps!
	11:55am Adrian in London: Ah, dammit, it's Tuesday, isn't it? Just realised. Off to the archives then… x
	11:56am earrie: wow, @nhg ! Thanks for the listening cheers, Trouble.
	11:56am Sem Chumbo: @RevRab: avec plaisir :)
	11:57am northguineahills: Thanks a doodle for the wintry sounds, Trouble!
	11:58am Davee: Good show - thanks
	12:39pm mimi: this envelopes me with our troubles & with joy
	4:55pm Sean B.: Catching up with this one, TROUBLE..;Simply beautiful radio. Thanx for the soundz!.
	12:12pm van: mmmmm
	12:13pm van: So how large WAS that painting before? It's still kind of, um, large!
	12:04pm van: Came back to finish the final hour. Great show!
	5:39pm Erik: I have listened to this show three (3) times already. Marathon time is coming up people, get your pledges ready for Trouble and WFMU!
	3:41pm Trouble: today's playlist art is done by peter gross. fmu listener and awesome artist guy! thanks peter!!

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

	9:39am Andy from Atlanta: Michael McDonald sings a lot of songs that sound like the closing credits to SNL.
	9:39am glenn: i agree with dale. once that insidious simpering oaf macdonald came on board, the doobies were dead to me.
	9:39am PKNY: I need to commission someone to make me a painting of Michael McDonald and Christopher Cross riding like the wind to the border of Mexico.
	9:40am common: @glenn: absolutely!
	9:40am common: @pkny: ha hee!!!
	9:42am neilwarren: Bill Payne's piano made that track!
	9:42am PKNY: Woah, just checked the Wikipedia page for "Ride like the Wind": What you probably didn't know about the song: Christopher Cross was on acid when he wrote the lyrics. "We were living in Houston at the time, and on the way down to Austin to record the songs, it was just a beautiful Texas day," he told us. "I took acid. So I wrote the words on the way down from Houston to Austin on acid."
	9:45am glenn: hmmmmm. number of songs written while stoned on acid - too many to count. number of no-hitters thrown while stoned on acid - 1.
	9:45am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I didn't mind the sax! - I think the quickest way to a crap sound is cheap slick electronic keyboard ...the Production philosophy of Yacht Rock is to take all the Edges off - like audio Koons w/ no irony - if that even makes sense; it's the opposite of Authenticity to the ears & tastes of some of us...
	9:45am koto@kanagawa: good morning Trouble and all, and good night...i'll be soon dreaming me skating on the huge art.
	9:47am PKNY: @glenn - Ok, so replace Michael McDonald with Dock Ellis in that painting.
	9:48am glenn: i can work with that.
	9:49am glenn: actually, the doobies would have been better if they had replaced macdonald with dock ellis.
	9:50am northguineahills: I've must have been MIA for a while, never noticed this B&S release.
	9:51am common: @rev rabbit: I agree. the cheap keyboard sound makes my head throb. @pkny christopher cross on acid. never woulda thunk it.
	9:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - of course, you might use a cheap slick keyboard sound in a >context< that would work...
	9:54am Brian in UK: Hello trouble. Always trying to see the bigger picture.
	9:57am emily: loving the music this morning, trouble. thanks!
	9:57am Trouble: hey brian! you got it!
	9:59am bobdoesthings: Right click on image, click view image (while holding command on a mac to open in new tab in firefox) - see the image fit to screen. Or just.. here - blogfiles.wfmu.org...
	10:00am Marcel M: Bob.... your a genius!
	10:00am bobdoesthings: you're* and yeah, duh.
	10:01am Marcel M: Oh you just can't resist correcting people....
	10:02am bibi: thx bob, now i realise it figures a sewer system map. and a duck.
	10:02am Brian in UK: Looking forward to hearing Bill Callahan & Alasdair Roberts this weekend.
	10:02am bobdoesthings: hehehehe
	10:07am Brian in UK: I do not normally like to see roadkill but this week I have seen two foxes lying prone in the road. I smiled quietly to myself. It was cheap but some small recompense for our chickens slaughtered.
	10:08am glenn: hey! foxes rock. and besides, what's the difference between foxes slaughtering them and you slaughtering them?
	10:10am βrian: We keep our chickens in enclosures, so the fox can watch.
	10:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Google: 'this child that I had you done' ...??...
	10:14am Brian in UK: Our chooks are for eggs only. You would not want to eat them at their age. @βrian I thought our fencing was sufficient. WRONG. They came mob handed. Should move to the country. All the foxes have gone urban.
	10:15am NotFromHere: Hey Revolution Rabbit. Basically he's asking her what she's done with the child he made with her, and she doesn't seem to even recognize him, and keeps flirting with him instead of answering.
	10:17am bobdoesthings: I keep my chicken in the freezer... sorry couldn't help myself
	10:17am NotFromHere: The whole song is making fun of the gooey romance songs that were popular over here at the time.
	10:17am Brian in UK: Kevin Morby reminds me of The Clientele.
	10:17am Snortley: I know a couple who raise free-range chickens in Vermont. They leave out the less-edible parts for the local foxes to keep them away from the live birds.
	10:18am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cheers NFH
	10:18am bibi: @rev rabbit : im working but lyrics of that b. fontaine song disturbed me (again). more or less : they lost a baby, but literally. they dont know where they've put it last...
	10:18am βrian: So the chickens are all amputees?
	10:18am bibi: sorry didnt see @notfromhere comment. you got it.
	10:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the plot thickens...cut w/ chickens...
	10:19am NotFromHere: The juxtaposition of lost babies and amputee chickens... Is that a topic or...? @bibi no worries at all, two answers are better than none, plus we agree.
	10:21am Brian in UK: Our plot thickened with chicken blood. Six out of eight were taken This myth about just killing is exactly that. Cubs to feed.
	10:22am Snortley: After slaughter, of course. Funny thing about their free-range practices; although the birds are allowed to go anywhere on the farm, they choose to huddle together in a mass in one corner of the barn.
	10:23am NotFromHere: They're scared, they've heard tales of amputee chickens being fed to foxes and wayward babies.
	10:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...there'll be payback when they let the chickenosaurs come to term...
	10:24am Brian in UK: Many people are scared of chickens, think it is the way they run t'wards you and the nip from beaks.
	10:24am northguineahills: Well, that and in the wild, they wouldn't have prey in an enclosed space that didn't have effective means of escape (domestic chickens). Also, being able to stash a kill for later w/o actually being able to do so effectively, either by being startled or being unable to.
	10:27am Brian in UK: There is one woman on our allotments that FEEDS the foxes. Saints preserve us.
	10:28am Snortley: blogfiles.wfmu.org...
	10:30am Brian in UK: Is that last track Snail Love?
	10:33am Brian in UK: Looks like a great film. www.youtube.com...
	10:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - shame they can't just feed on the American GreySquirrels over there (we are sorry)...even Eastern Buddhists are killing (non-native) racoons to save their ancient wood temples...
	10:37am bobdoesthings: Anyone know if Josephine Foster is ever going to do another album with "The Supposed" ?
	10:41am Hotel Califorina: This reminds me of something.
	10:54am Davee: you mean "Is she Supposed to"?
	10:55am Brian in UK: Got 'Static' for a Christmas present, still not sure about it. Not the spark of the first album. Ah broken relationships.
	10:56am bobdoesthings: @davee - ?? Hmm.. there was an album out like 10 years ago by Josephine Foster and The Supposed. Two guys playing with her, electric.. great album called "All the Leaves Are Gone" ... I was hoping they'd put out something else.. but nothing :( I was curious if anyone knew anything about that
	10:57am Davee: The Bird songs got everyones attention here at the office
	10:57am Davee: No problem - just having pun
	10:58am βrian: @E: Is your office full of cats, too?
	10:59am Davee: Can you take something when you are ornery?
	10:59am Priscilla: Flamethrowers - Yay!
	11:00am βrian: To make you more ornery: pronounce the final 'n' in "Fontaine."
	11:00am Davee: @Brian - interesting you should ask that . . .
	11:01am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Trouble - this gif pretty much sums up how I feel about this winter. gph.is...
	11:02am earrie: Microcosmos ! That's an amazing film. Just found that 'l'amour des escargots' scene, here. youtu.be.com...
	11:02am john: Is John Lee Hooker talking about catnip there?
	11:03am Peter: Thanks for the huge visual shout out Trouble! :)
	11:04am earrie: Er, youtu.be...
	11:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I posted two stream addresses for Birdsong @ 10:01 on the Jan. 21 playlist if more cats are bored...
	11:06am Sem Chumbo: Tardy, but happy the first thing I hear is John Lee Hooker. Thanks, Trouble.
	11:08am βrian: When will "Dinah" again be the trendy new baby name?
	11:10am Sem Chumbo: @earrie: pleasantly lubricious, and what a singer. Thx.
	11:11am Davee: @Brian - When she blows her horn?
	11:11am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I got 'Microcosmos' on VHS ! ...checkin' that YT: ..some snails are pretty 'quick' - nudge nudge...
	11:12am Brian in UK: The birdsong station over here has closed now. CDs available. www.radiobirdsong.com
	11:15am Priscilla: This reminds me of Television
	11:16am Trouble: i hear you jennique!
	11:16am bibi: it is a known path, but this forsyth has his own way on it.
	11:20am βrian: "Dinah is not in the top 1000 names for any year of birth in the last 14 years. Please enter another name." Ouch! I like Dinah.
	11:21am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: The name Dinah always makes me think of the song, I've Been Working on the Railroad. "Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah..."
	11:22am earrie: Gastropoda - the chunk o' Mollusca that live in air (land), salt water, freshwater, you name it. And the nudibranchs, nudies going without a shell, even.
	11:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - it's perhaps ? considered a colloquial version of Diana...I agree, I like it... ...some YT watchers have the shell fetish - some prefer nudi...
	11:25am Brian in UK: Calm down, earrie.
	11:25am dale: wow, this vashti is pop confection done to perfection. loog oldham-ish, to boot.
	11:27am Davee: this is shaking my world!
	11:27am earrie: I love and admire the range of ecosystems Gastropods have evolved to inhabit. Is it that obvious?
	11:29am Whosondephone: Those accidentals are hurting my head!
	11:30am Trouble: hey peter!!!yeah seattle
	11:31am βrian: Butter and garlic — my favorite ecosystem.
	11:32am Sem Chumbo: @Brian: two crucial food groups.
	11:32am Brian in UK: I used to get a lot of stick at skool because of Brian the snail in the Magic Roundabout. A French childrens programme bought by BBC and the names Anglised.
	11:33am Davee: Brian does not seem to be the right name for a snail . . .
	11:33am Brian in UK: Mollusc is a beautiful word.
	11:33am Davee: Perhaps Sheldon?
	11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...almost wish I smoked ganja again to hear this dub: smoke enuff & you'd feel you were going right away w/ an echo that crazy...
	11:34am Brian in UK: The rabbit was called Dylan. Hey.
	11:34am Davee: Is Mollusc french for Mull over?
	11:34am Trouble: put up a link on the facebook page for a collaboration lonnie holley did with some artists he is mixing with at the robert rauschenberg artists colony down florida way, fab stuff! www.facebook.com...
	11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...snails usually have a lot of stick...
	11:35am βrian: Gaston would work. Gaston the Gastronome.
	11:37am Guido (Cologne): If Vashti Bunyan had some success stayed with Immediate, would she have been "more lucky"? I guess maybe not really.
	11:37am earrie: Yeah and a tasty edible too.
	11:42am Brian in UK: Great show, trouble. Gotta cut & run.
	11:42am northguineahills: Yeah, you have to quarantine the snails and feed them fresh clean veggies for a week or so, then starve for a few days before the arduous task of boiling and cooking them multiple times to get rid of the slime. In Nigeria, the use some sort of lye on the giant African land snails to remove the slime, if I remember correctly. I want to try some.
	11:44am Trouble: merci brian! ciao!
	11:45am Davee: Nice Miles tune - perfect for today
	11:45am LovecraftDude888: just cleaned off car..that was fun
	11:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - still always very happy to hear 'Kind of Blue'.
	11:46am LovecraftDude888: wet snow though...easier a bit
	11:46am LovecraftDude888: more like Slush Dude888
	11:47am Giulio: First time listening and you play Miles, Love you already! BTW it is almost 6 pm here in Italy so it's kinda the perfect mood!
	11:47am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Kind of Dude.
	11:48am Sem Chumbo: Really enjoyed this Miles Davis bio the other evening from 2001: www.youtube.com...
	11:50am LovecraftDude888: oh Rabbit....this sucks hard winter of doom
	11:50am John Juan de San Antonio: Nothing worse than when "Freddie Freeloader" comes on and then the DJ starts yammerin' over it the time, weather, traffic, concert promotions, etc. Thank you for not doing that. My local jazz station always does just that though.
	11:51am LovecraftDude888: and now for the hog report.....today in hog news...bla bla
	11:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cheers Sem! ...the way Trane comes in on this is one of my favorite things in the world: he's got stuff he's ready to say awlright...
	11:54am Trouble: cheerio, thanks for all the good vibes peeps!
	11:55am Adrian in London: Ah, dammit, it's Tuesday, isn't it? Just realised. Off to the archives then… x
