	9:44am Priscilla: My favorite coffee shop in Brooklyn (Cafe Pedlar) just closed. The whole neighborhood is under construction and changing very fast.
	9:46am Lixiviated Life: "Dawn in New York groans on enormous fire escapes searching between the angles for spikenards of drafted anguish."

	9:58am Trouble: merci joe from warwick ny
	10:00am Passaic River Blues: I've never heard this William DeVaughn cover. Came to MA later on, I guess. Trouble's weaving sounds!
	10:00am The Oscar: Was there ever any follow-up on that rumor a while back that the guy from Massive Attack is really Banksy?
	10:07am Brad1976: I needed me some MAC!
	10:07am museguy: Hi Trouble, How are you ? Any other suggestions for places to visit in Georgia ? So far have visited Pasaquan, Paradise Garden (Howard Finister) and the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center. All great suggestions by you ! Thank you ! -Mark
	10:07am melinda: Ah, this brings back memories.
	10:08am Trouble: that was an excellant rumor 2 oscar! like a person of banksy's talent and massive attack's talent could be the same person. unlikely i would imagine
	10:08am Asheville Jon: oh noooooo! it's stevie nicks, the singer who swallowed a sheep! baaaaaa
	10:09am Trouble: museguy: have you been to the botanical garden? they have a most outstanding tropical house; sooooo cool
	10:09am glenn: oh, and how come lindsey buckingham and christine mcvie are touring together? it seems odd to me.
	10:10am glenn: or maybe not odd so much as amusing.
	10:11am Whosondephone: what the hell kind of music is??? I like it.
	10:11am Kurt: OMG, that voice has has to be one of the worst ever recorded
	10:13am museguy: Thank trouble, I went to the Botanic Garden, but was put off by the cost $21.95. Will go back to see the tropical house. Thank you !!
	10:14am The Oscar: This might be my favorite band name I've heard in a while. Good song too!
	10:14am βrian: Wow, fluorescent Easter egg.
	10:15am Trouble: i know it's pricey, but if all the flowers are in bloom outside then along with the tropical house it will be worth it. the tropical house is truly one of the most amazing i have seen
	10:18am liam in denmark: If this is trouble I don't want peace. Great show today
	10:20am βrian: Our small-but-nice conservatory costs $2. The outdoor gardens are free.
	10:21am The Oscar: Ken Nordine is such a national treasure.
	10:21am Trouble: merci liam in denmark! @brian: now that's a fantabulous bargain! gardens are always soooooo expensive, o well. the high price of nature in the city
	10:23am Bronwyn Bishop: i love ken nordine's word jazz albums!!!
	10:30am Trouble: www.newyorker.com...
	10:31am Kevlicki: @Trouble, listening to your DJ break over TheLakeRadio stream, freeform over freerorm someho, it works thelakeradio.com Some Danish houseguests told me about it earlier this month.
	10:32am Trouble: howdy kevlicki, will look that up.
	10:32am βrian: What's the collective name for a group of librarians, now? I should know this. A cabal of librarians? A revelation?
	10:32am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and Troublesome people.
	10:33am glenn: i don't know, but the collective noun for gnus is an implausibility.
	10:35am Brian in UK: Hello Trouble & fellow listeners. @βrian A silence perhaps.
	10:36am Brian in UK: @glenn I have been sharing that one gleefully since your first mention of it. Blooming great.
	10:36am glenn: and a bunch of cheetahs is a coalition.
	10:37am βrian: I've heard "a hush of librarians." I think I prefer "a query of librarians."
	10:37am Lucky: The Sade sounded kind of like the Slits in a way...
	10:37am glenn: except that many people have no idea what a gnu is.
	10:38am Priscilla: Garfield Park Conservatory in Chicago has the most amazing fern room. Ferns and moss are planted vertically in layers of rock, set up in winding alleys.
	10:40am Passaic River Blues: @Priscilla: that sounds like a chamber of paradise.
	10:43am Priscilla: garfieldconservatory.org...
	10:43am AndyM: That was stressing me out !
	10:44am melinda: I don't think I've ever been to a large fancy botanical garden. Sounds fun.
	10:44am βrian: @Priscilla: "Admission: FREE (suggested donation)" I'm on my way.
	10:46am glenn: montreal's botanical gardens is fabulous.
	10:48am melinda: Then again the Arnold Arboretum in Boston is pretty cool, and free. Trees and shrubs, and there is a bonsai collection.
	10:50am The Oscar: @Melinda I used to live by the Arnold Arboretum, and I do miss being able to wander over there. If you can get past the spookiness, Mt. Auburn Cemetery is a pretty wonderful arboretum in its own right, and a very cool place to spend an afternoon.
	10:51am Adrian in London: @kevlicki The Lake is great. It was founded by the wonderful group Efterklang.
	10:55am Passaic River Blues: Nice! The Horace Andy collaborations, now that I remember.
	10:56am Brian in UK: Shara Nelson made Massive Attack special, shame she seemed to lose it.
	10:58am Brian in UK: @glenn here is the beast in question, even the Muppets have covered it. www.youtube.com...
	11:00am bobdoesthings: good morning... boy am I late today ughhh
	11:00am Sem Chumbo: This set has been a delight. Thanks!
	11:01am glenn: i get flanders and swann mixed up with saunders and french.
	11:03am βrian: L'hibou !
	11:05am Brian in UK: Easy mistake to make. One lot have talent the other.....
	11:07am ?: Go Joe!
	11:09am Listener Gregory: With a tip of the hat to Cole Porter's "You're the Top"
	11:09am Sem Chumbo: Oh, yes^
	11:09am Adrian in London: Wow, she's really going for it!
	11:11am Erella: Ali Shuffle is a good Ali song. www.youtube.com...
	11:16am melinda: @Oscar: thanks, I've heard it's very nice there too. I live in Maine and don't get to Boston much these days but would like to.
	11:19am melinda: What a great song, I think I've only heard Nina Simone's version until now. Didn't know it was Bee Gees.
	11:27am drr: non band sounds like alternate universe Can.
	11:28am bobdoesthings: I was gonna say non band reminds me of Saboten ..
	11:29am Passaic River Blues: @Melinda: Our Maine friends told us once there is a botanical garden near Bath that's not bad. You know, flower shows in the summer and whatnot. Fortunately, Maine is gorgeous enough.
	11:33am bobdoesthings: I would guess "moe-lox" .. but just guessing.. I dunno
	11:34am Adrian in London: @Trouble Rhymes with Never Mind the...
	11:34am Fuzzy: Moe Lock, whose ear is a smoking tomb!
	11:34am glenn: i don't know how to pronounce it, but i know how to clicky-star it.
	11:34am Listener Gregory: Moloch is an old testament god who encouraged child sacrifice and accumulation of riches, no? And featured prominently in Ginsburg's Howl. I think.
	11:35am melinda: @PRB thanks for the info!
	11:35am bobdoesthings: Oh, like bollocks? is that a curse word over there adrian?
	11:36am Listener Gregory: What sphinx of cement and aluminum bashed open their skulls and ate up their brains and imagination? Moloch! Solitude! Filth! Ugliness! Ashcans and unobtainable dollars! Children screaming under the stairways! Boys sobbing in armies! Old men weeping in the parks! Moloch! Moloch! Nightmare of Moloch! Moloch the loveless! Mental Moloch! Moloch the heavy judger of men!
	11:36am Listener Gregory: (from Howl: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems-and-poets/poems/detail/49303)
	11:38am The Oscar: Also figures heavily in Lang's Metropolis. Dude gets around.
	11:38am Listener Gregory: @Fuzzy: Yes.
	11:38am Listener Gregory: When did he form a band??
	11:39am The Oscar: media.tenor.co...
	11:39am Adrian in London: @bobdoesthings Technically no, as proved by John Mortimer in the court case. I thought the comic effect would be better if I used an ellipsis, plus I didn't want to 'go below the waist', as it were.
	11:40am meredith: @The Oscar @Melinda I had a picnic at Mt. Auburn Cemetery when I lived in Boston in the 90s. It was maybe the 3rd or 4th date with my (now) husband and probably the moment I feel hard for him. Lovely place lovely morning. I even remember what we ate. Iced coffee, strawberries, bagels and lox. swoon - twas probably 23 yrs ago? How time flies...
	11:40am bobdoesthings: @adrian - ah, fair enough, thanks
	11:40am βrian: An ellipsis is a kind grammatical treasure trail, when properly used.
	11:40am WO Town Wick: I'm loving not only the great tunes but the free, high-level education from the listeners' comments.
	11:40am emily: The "You're the Greatest" song reminded me of my first love; Clark Gable and the song that Judy Garland sang to him, "Dear Mr. Gable", especially the lines: well you almost tripped over me on your way--it's kind of verbatim from this song.
	11:42am Devin B.: Moloch also makes an appearance in one of Melville's Civil War poems: www.poetryfoundation.org...
	11:45am Listener Gregory: @Devin: Nice. The young soldiers are compared to Moloch's child sacrificees. (That is now a word.)
	11:46am melinda: @meredith: that sounds like my kind of date! I know there are also famous people buried at Mt. Auburn.
	11:47am bobdoesthings: this pep laguarda & tapineria -- this is a cover of something right? sounds so familiar
	11:47am MenfussMike: i dont know, i just know i like it
	11:48am The Oscar: @Meredith That's lovely :) I had been living in Boston for years before my girlfriend turned me onto Mt. Auburn. We try to go every couple of months or so, and I'm positive I haven't seen the whole thing. @Melinda Buckminster Fuller is the rock star there-- always a bunch of trinkets left on his grave. Plus, you know, a ton of founding fathers and Boston Brahmin.
	11:48am Passaic River Blues: Yo, tip of the hat to Devin B. for the Melville link. Thank you.
	11:49am glenn: a well played bongo is a wonderful thing.
	11:49am Devin B.: @Listener Gregory: Yep. Good stuff. That image has stuck with me since college, although I don't think I really got it back then.
	11:50am Devin B.: @PRB: My pleasure!
	11:50am glenn: yeah, it's a donovan song, i think.
	11:53am Trouble: thanks for sitting in to listen and chat! see you next week. gray weather will not prevent the music.
	11:55am bobdoesthings: thanks trouble!
	11:56am βrian: "Now, fair Hippolyta, our luncheon hour draws on apace…" (Hmm, Bibimbap? Japchae?)
	11:57am Passaic River Blues: Thank you, Trouble!
	11:58am Sem Chumbo: Likewise^
	11:59am βrian: Mille mercis, DJ Troulbe. À la prochaine.
	12:00pm meredith: have a lovely week peoples and @trouble
	3:25pm museguy: Thank you Trouble ! Your suggestions have been wonderful ! -Mark

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.

	10:13am museguy: Thank trouble, I went to the Botanic Garden, but was put off by the cost $21.95. Will go back to see the tropical house. Thank you !!
	10:14am The Oscar: This might be my favorite band name I've heard in a while. Good song too!
	10:14am βrian: Wow, fluorescent Easter egg.
	10:15am Trouble: i know it's pricey, but if all the flowers are in bloom outside then along with the tropical house it will be worth it. the tropical house is truly one of the most amazing i have seen
	10:18am liam in denmark: If this is trouble I don't want peace. Great show today
	10:20am βrian: Our small-but-nice conservatory costs $2. The outdoor gardens are free.
	10:21am The Oscar: Ken Nordine is such a national treasure.
	10:21am Trouble: merci liam in denmark! @brian: now that's a fantabulous bargain! gardens are always soooooo expensive, o well. the high price of nature in the city
	10:23am Bronwyn Bishop: i love ken nordine's word jazz albums!!!
	10:30am Trouble: www.newyorker.com...
	10:31am Kevlicki: @Trouble, listening to your DJ break over TheLakeRadio stream, freeform over freerorm someho, it works thelakeradio.com Some Danish houseguests told me about it earlier this month.
	10:32am Trouble: howdy kevlicki, will look that up.
	10:32am βrian: What's the collective name for a group of librarians, now? I should know this. A cabal of librarians? A revelation?
	10:32am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and Troublesome people.
	10:33am glenn: i don't know, but the collective noun for gnus is an implausibility.
	10:35am Brian in UK: Hello Trouble & fellow listeners. @βrian A silence perhaps.
	10:36am Brian in UK: @glenn I have been sharing that one gleefully since your first mention of it. Blooming great.
	10:36am glenn: and a bunch of cheetahs is a coalition.
	10:37am βrian: I've heard "a hush of librarians." I think I prefer "a query of librarians."
	10:37am Lucky: The Sade sounded kind of like the Slits in a way...
	10:37am glenn: except that many people have no idea what a gnu is.
	10:38am Priscilla: Garfield Park Conservatory in Chicago has the most amazing fern room. Ferns and moss are planted vertically in layers of rock, set up in winding alleys.
	10:40am Passaic River Blues: @Priscilla: that sounds like a chamber of paradise.
	10:43am Priscilla: garfieldconservatory.org...
	10:43am AndyM: That was stressing me out !
	10:44am melinda: I don't think I've ever been to a large fancy botanical garden. Sounds fun.
	10:44am βrian: @Priscilla: "Admission: FREE (suggested donation)" I'm on my way.
	10:46am glenn: montreal's botanical gardens is fabulous.
	10:48am melinda: Then again the Arnold Arboretum in Boston is pretty cool, and free. Trees and shrubs, and there is a bonsai collection.
	10:50am The Oscar: @Melinda I used to live by the Arnold Arboretum, and I do miss being able to wander over there. If you can get past the spookiness, Mt. Auburn Cemetery is a pretty wonderful arboretum in its own right, and a very cool place to spend an afternoon.
	10:51am Adrian in London: @kevlicki The Lake is great. It was founded by the wonderful group Efterklang.
	10:55am Passaic River Blues: Nice! The Horace Andy collaborations, now that I remember.
	10:56am Brian in UK: Shara Nelson made Massive Attack special, shame she seemed to lose it.
	10:58am Brian in UK: @glenn here is the beast in question, even the Muppets have covered it. www.youtube.com...
	11:00am bobdoesthings: good morning... boy am I late today ughhh
	11:00am Sem Chumbo: This set has been a delight. Thanks!
	11:01am glenn: i get flanders and swann mixed up with saunders and french.
	11:03am βrian: L'hibou !
	11:05am Brian in UK: Easy mistake to make. One lot have talent the other.....
	11:07am ?: Go Joe!
	11:09am Listener Gregory: With a tip of the hat to Cole Porter's "You're the Top"
	11:09am Sem Chumbo: Oh, yes^
	11:09am Adrian in London: Wow, she's really going for it!
	11:11am Erella: Ali Shuffle is a good Ali song. www.youtube.com...
	11:16am melinda: @Oscar: thanks, I've heard it's very nice there too. I live in Maine and don't get to Boston much these days but would like to.
	11:19am melinda: What a great song, I think I've only heard Nina Simone's version until now. Didn't know it was Bee Gees.
	11:27am drr: non band sounds like alternate universe Can.
	11:28am bobdoesthings: I was gonna say non band reminds me of Saboten ..
	11:29am Passaic River Blues: @Melinda: Our Maine friends told us once there is a botanical garden near Bath that's not bad. You know, flower shows in the summer and whatnot. Fortunately, Maine is gorgeous enough.
	11:33am bobdoesthings: I would guess "moe-lox" .. but just guessing.. I dunno
	11:34am Adrian in London: @Trouble Rhymes with Never Mind the...
	11:34am Fuzzy: Moe Lock, whose ear is a smoking tomb!
	11:34am glenn: i don't know how to pronounce it, but i know how to clicky-star it.
	11:34am Listener Gregory: Moloch is an old testament god who encouraged child sacrifice and accumulation of riches, no? And featured prominently in Ginsburg's Howl. I think.
	11:35am melinda: @PRB thanks for the info!
	11:35am bobdoesthings: Oh, like bollocks? is that a curse word over there adrian?
	11:36am Listener Gregory: What sphinx of cement and aluminum bashed open their skulls and ate up their brains and imagination? Moloch! Solitude! Filth! Ugliness! Ashcans and unobtainable dollars! Children screaming under the stairways! Boys sobbing in armies! Old men weeping in the parks! Moloch! Moloch! Nightmare of Moloch! Moloch the loveless! Mental Moloch! Moloch the heavy judger of men!
	11:36am Listener Gregory: (from Howl: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems-and-poets/poems/detail/49303)
	11:38am The Oscar: Also figures heavily in Lang's Metropolis. Dude gets around.
	11:38am Listener Gregory: @Fuzzy: Yes.
	11:38am Listener Gregory: When did he form a band??
	11:39am The Oscar: media.tenor.co...
	11:39am Adrian in London: @bobdoesthings Technically no, as proved by John Mortimer in the court case. I thought the comic effect would be better if I used an ellipsis, plus I didn't want to 'go below the waist', as it were.
	11:40am meredith: @The Oscar @Melinda I had a picnic at Mt. Auburn Cemetery when I lived in Boston in the 90s. It was maybe the 3rd or 4th date with my (now) husband and probably the moment I feel hard for him. Lovely place lovely morning. I even remember what we ate. Iced coffee, strawberries, bagels and lox. swoon - twas probably 23 yrs ago? How time flies...
	11:40am bobdoesthings: @adrian - ah, fair enough, thanks
	11:40am βrian: An ellipsis is a kind grammatical treasure trail, when properly used.
	11:40am WO Town Wick: I'm loving not only the great tunes but the free, high-level education from the listeners' comments.
	11:40am emily: The "You're the Greatest" song reminded me of my first love; Clark Gable and the song that Judy Garland sang to him, "Dear Mr. Gable", especially the lines: well you almost tripped over me on your way--it's kind of verbatim from this song.
	11:42am Devin B.: Moloch also makes an appearance in one of Melville's Civil War poems: www.poetryfoundation.org...
	11:45am Listener Gregory: @Devin: Nice. The young soldiers are compared to Moloch's child sacrificees. (That is now a word.)
	11:46am melinda: @meredith: that sounds like my kind of date! I know there are also famous people buried at Mt. Auburn.
	11:47am bobdoesthings: this pep laguarda & tapineria -- this is a cover of something right? sounds so familiar
	11:47am MenfussMike: i dont know, i just know i like it
	11:48am The Oscar: @Meredith That's lovely :) I had been living in Boston for years before my girlfriend turned me onto Mt. Auburn. We try to go every couple of months or so, and I'm positive I haven't seen the whole thing. @Melinda Buckminster Fuller is the rock star there-- always a bunch of trinkets left on his grave. Plus, you know, a ton of founding fathers and Boston Brahmin.
	11:48am Passaic River Blues: Yo, tip of the hat to Devin B. for the Melville link. Thank you.
	11:49am glenn: a well played bongo is a wonderful thing.
	11:49am Devin B.: @Listener Gregory: Yep. Good stuff. That image has stuck with me since college, although I don't think I really got it back then.
	11:50am Devin B.: @PRB: My pleasure!
	11:50am glenn: yeah, it's a donovan song, i think.
	11:53am Trouble: thanks for sitting in to listen and chat! see you next week. gray weather will not prevent the music.
	11:55am bobdoesthings: thanks trouble!
	11:56am βrian: "Now, fair Hippolyta, our luncheon hour draws on apace…" (Hmm, Bibimbap? Japchae?)
	11:57am Passaic River Blues: Thank you, Trouble!
	11:58am Sem Chumbo: Likewise^
	11:59am βrian: Mille mercis, DJ Troulbe. À la prochaine.
	12:00pm meredith: have a lovely week peoples and @trouble
	3:25pm museguy: Thank you Trouble ! Your suggestions have been wonderful ! -Mark
