	♥ 9:30am steveo: Yé-yé (French pronunciation: [jeje]) was a style of pop music that emerged from France, Italy, Spain and Portugal in the early 1960s. The term "yé-yé" was derived from the English term "yeah! yeah!", popularized by British beat music bands such as the Beatles. The style expanded worldwide, due to the success of figures such as the French singer-songwriters Serge Gainsbourg and Françoise Hardy. [Wikipedia]
	♥ 9:33am Ken From Hyde Park: Oh, nice! That sounds like a good way to celebrate a birthday.
	9:33am Brendan: Digging the maritime birds. Transportive.
	9:37am Serpico: Trouble in the Modern World.
	9:41am Andal: she sure is objectifying herself!
	9:43am JakeGould: Speaking of French, just rewatched the original Twin Peaks for the first time since it first aired. When Jerry Horne comes back from France raving about baguettes with butter and Brie? Those rolls are just crappy hero rolls.

	♥ 10:01am Passaic River Blues: It is kind of amazing Laetitia will be at Monty Hall in only three weeks.
	♥ 10:01am Trouble: laetitia sadier is playing montgomery hall on august 4. tickets still available!
	♥ 10:02am Trouble: good one passaic river blues, you beat me too it!!
	♥ 10:03am Passaic River Blues: hahaha I was just marveling at the idea. It's pretty cool.
	♥ 10:07am MD: NIGHT RIDER! THINK OF ME WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE NIGHT SKY!!!
	♥ 10:10am The Oscar: Ask and ye shall receive: www.arfarfrecords.com...
	♥ 10:11am The Oscar: There's also a pretty great pipe organ cover on a Sacred Bones sampler from a few years back, though the artist escapes me at the moment.
	♥ 10:13am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, gang!
	♥ 10:18am Ken From Hyde Park: I was IMing with a French chap this morning and wished him Happy Bastille Day and that I was sorry we couldn't send a more competent leader. His response: "I know."
	♥ 10:19am MD: me loves Stereo Total! Thanks you!
	10:23am Sam: They almost ended up with The Pen
	♥ 10:24am Passaic River Blues: @Ken: Can you imagine Trump attending a bal de pompiers in Paris tonight? "I thought this was going to be a classy ball! What's with all these firemen? Sad!"
	10:26am Sam: The French totally copied us. Democracy was our idea. Then 13 years after our revolution, they plagiarize our idea. Sad!
	10:27am sugarwolf: Las Grecas!!!
	♥ 10:28am Passaic River Blues: @Sam: hahahaha! "This guy Jack O'Bin is being recognized more and more, I notice. Sounds like a nut!"
	♥ 10:29am The Oscar: Yay!!
	♥ 10:29am Sebastian: this is nice
	♥ 10:29am Trouble: @sam: macron won 2/3 of the vote. they had a 74% voter turnout: lowest turnout since 1969. when was the last time we even had that turnout? our turnout is usually sooooo low
	10:30am sugarwolf: I hope Macron continues to troll Trump.
	♥ 10:31am Webhamster Henry: Plus de "non plus"
	10:31am Sam: Yes, everybody loves to complain and talk about politics ad inifinitum but they often forget that part about showing up to the voting booth.
	10:33am Sam: Is Macron going to keep his promise to give everyone free macarons?
	10:36am Linda: Hello! The Pierre Henry, the "Grandfather of Techno," died recently..I know it is unusual to make requests, but do you have any in your awesome collection of French music that you could play???
	10:41am Andal: That song about dreaming of Paris hurt my heart. lived there 3 years ago and miss my friends.
	♥ 10:41am frozen_peas: I still have the biggest crush on a young Daniel Darc.
	10:42am Lewis: @Linda - My guess is that Fabio will do at least one set this afternoon with a focus on Pierre Henry. He did one set last week toward the end of the show if you want a fix right away from the archives... (not that you should forego Trouble of course!)
	♥ 10:43am Tome: FaBuLouS !
	♥ 10:44am The Oscar: Man, I need to check out this comp. Ellie Greenwich was so amazing.
	10:46am Linda: @Lewis Hey thanks! Will check out later... And thank you Trouble!
	10:49am çàö+§: too hot in Geneva, trouble's birds are good but we still need to be cooled down. help¬¬¬¬¬
	10:51am Sam: This jazz organ stuff is brilliant
	♥ 10:52am tadpoles: Always great to hear the TVPs on FMU. Thanks for a great show Trouble.
	♥ 10:54am Trouble: that organ was pierre henry remixed by st germain. cd is trashed, so i took it out and wiped it and will begin again
	♥ 10:55am Trouble: @linda: i plyed some pierre henry last week before i knew he had died! weird...
	10:56am Listener Gregory: This (Jericho Jerk) is a very nice track, but I had to turn off the radio for a second to make sure the gong was coming from the music and not my building's fire alarm!
	10:56am thriftstoreleather: What TVP song was that???
	10:58am Will: That collaboration between Spooky Tooth and Pierre Henry in 1969 will forever lives as one of weirdest experiments ever. Right down to the difficult cover art.
	11:00am Linda: Tous à la Bastille! And RIP Pierre Henry.
	♥ 11:02am steveo: such birds
	11:03am josh: syd barrett lived in cherry hinton, cambridge - just down the road from me. naturally everyone in cambridge had a story about having seen him...
	♥ 11:03am The Oscar: A+ segue!
	11:04am Stay Frosty: Syd...what a troubled genius. Pun intended.
	♥ 11:05am The Oscar: Also @josh I used to work in a used record shop (in the other Cambridge, funny enough) down the road from Tom Lehrer's house. It was always funny reading about what a recluse he is, when I would see him walking down the street every day.
	11:05am jt: This is a very different TVP version than i have heard, I know where "Syd Barret Lives" The album version gives an address at the end of the song.. which turns out to be in Munich, but that was not Syd's real address..
	♥ 11:07am The Oscar: No prob :)
	11:08am Listener142985: I lived in an apartment building on Commonwealth Avenue in Boston where Aerosmith had lived years before when they had no money. Anybody else?
	♥ 11:08am tadpoles: @jt.. You're probably thinking of a live version and if it was Munich it was probably a German tour. TVPs once opened for Pink Floyd and gave out Syd's real address at the end of the song which enraged David Gilmour and he kicked them off the tour.
	11:08am Sam: I saw Michel LeGrand in a tiny little club in Paris. His son was there too, who's also an amazing musician. What a great night. I drank a whiskey that was older than I was. Later I and ended up at the urinal right next to Michel LeGrand's son and said made a little small talk.
	11:08am Stay Frosty: Nothing worse than ornery CDs.
	11:08am Emily: Dear Trouble, oh, I have missed you and the birds. Hope they don't mind the jostling, but it's really nice to hear their twittering! XO
	♥ 11:08am steveo: hi @tadpoles -- I saw the Mothersbaugh show at NYU yesterday; thanks for the heads-up!
	♥ 11:09am steveo: The mechanical musical instruments were just astoundingly lovely.
	11:09am listener mark: Thank you so very much!
	11:10am kevlicki: Hi trouble and all!!
	♥ 11:10am tadpoles: @steveo.. you're welcome.. gave me a whole new appreciation for the guy...do we say "genius"?
	♥ 11:10am steveo: seems safe to say
	♥ 11:11am Trouble: howdy emily! howdy kevlicki!
	11:11am Nick K (Killer): so relaxing...
	11:12am melinda: I like the raga
	11:12am kevlicki: Listener142985 i used to hang at a friends house in Red hook Brooklyn that Alice donut used to have in the 80'-90's. Urban myth was they were bikers and someone had fatally lost a game of Russian roulette
	11:14am kevlicki: Animal collective recorded some tracks in my exe's basement
	11:15am sugarwolf: @steveo: I saw that last month, it was really good!
	11:16am kevlicki: I'm sure there's plenty of people that could contribute many connections to sub-lebrities. Shall we?
	11:16am sugarwolf: The same space had a good show about Charlotte Moorman that I really liked.
	11:19am Listener142985: Kev: I also once seriously startled Oedipus when he was program director at WBCN. My 'BCN intern girlfriend said coke made him jumpy.
	11:21am Ghetto Pastrami: loving all of the French language tunes today. I don't speak French but it still makes for great listening.
	11:22am Andal: wow, they really are singing TVA...
	11:23am Ghetto Pastrami: just throwing this out there but there are a few Stranglers songs with French vocals
	♥ 11:27am Trouble: merci@ghetto pastrami, i will look that up for next year!
	11:27am BEAVO: Trump will be disappointed when he finds out oui out doesn't mean what he thinks it means. Colbert.
	♥ 11:28am The Oscar: @Kev I had a bunch through the record store-- Peter Wolf, Andy Pratt, and Damon Krukowski were all regulars, plus memorable appearances by Courtney Love and DJ Kool Herc. Then there was the time Ron Jeremy scorned me in front of an auditorium full of people, and the time I was in St. Vincent's apartment (though I can't remember if I met her, and it kills me).
	11:29am jt: Brushes w/ Fame dept. : I knew a guy who, over the years, happened to live on three different streets in three different cities where Leonard Cohen had also lived. Parquet Courts had a 'band' photo done in my stairwell, but I had only realized that by looking for their tour dates. I once owned a short that Arlo Guthrie had owned. I eventually gave it away. Heavy aura. Wish I still had that shirt.
	♥ 11:34am Michael 98145: Excellent show, thank you, DJ Trouble. Liberté, égalité, fraternité !
	11:34am peter: Bonne Fete Trouble et Troublistas!
	11:35am Dennis Diken: I met Arnold Stang on a midtown NYC avenue in '88!
	♥ 11:38am Passaic River Blues: This is killer!
	♥ 11:39am -Ken: Agreed Passaic River Blues, this Kensuke Ide is incredible.
	♥ 11:41am Michael 98145: now we dance
	♥ 11:41am Mick: @tadpoles: I also caught the Mark Mothersbaugh show yesterday, many thanks to you for the tip! Agree with steveo that it was astonishing. Sort of ashamed to admit that I had no idea of the breadth of his work - must have been snoozing.
	♥ 11:41am Greg from ZONE 5: Feeling it
	11:43am Laura L: @ Mick and tp--glad you saw it! I designed the announcement for it, which was great fun, and MM loved it. He's a terrific artist and a gent.
	♥ 11:44am tadpoles: @Mick...@Steveo..@Laura L....I still can't get over the 30,000 postcards and yes his instruments are brilliant!
	♥ 11:45am steveo: yes & I also enjoyed the weird miniatures in the basement
	11:47am Laura L: I know--the postcards alone! Whoa! And mixed into those were some Devo dollars--which we used to make long ago in their honor--take a Sharpie and black out letters other than D E V O in "Federal Reserve Note" at top of a dollar bill and you've got yourself a DEVO dollar!
	♥ 11:50am Mick: The instruments were over the top amazing - pulled you into the room no matter what you were looking at. Laura, do you know how many different compositions are programmed into that? The postcards boggled the mind...
	♥ 11:50am Greg from ZONE 5: Holy smokes! I just put that show on my calendar so I don't miss it.
	♥ 11:51am Michael 98145: @LL, heh. i remember doing that ...
	11:52am Jeff: So was that "wooden ships" a different band from the one with the silent "j"? Music is so confusing.
	11:54am Laura L: The instruments were fantastic! Pure happiness! Dunno how many compositions tho. There is a book that goes w/ the exhibition--it was organized by the Denver Museum of Art first, and it's well done. By the way, MM told me Eno showed them the Sharpie-dollar thing first--he was making ENO dollars, so they stared making DEVO dollars. Ha!
	♥ 11:55am Trouble: no jeff, that's my mistypiiiiinggggness
	♥ 11:55am steveo: @mick @laura the person at the desk said there were about 11 different pieces -- I wish I'd had time to stay longer.
	♥ 11:55am tomasz.: that J was silent? i always called them Wooden Shuh-jips
	♥ 11:57am tadpoles: Excellent Laura. Just had to do one in his honour and love the Eno bit although DEVO works better...you can spread it out. Thanks for your nice work. I had to buy the book. Thanks for your nice mix today Trouble.
	♥ 11:58am The Oscar: In my mind I've always called them "Wooden Shyips" (the Danish blood in me, I suppose), but I don't know if I've ever had the opportunity to say it out loud.
	11:58am sugarwolf: <3<3 France Gall
	♥ 11:58am steveo: thank you Trouble; happy bastille day!
	♥ 11:59am Passaic River Blues: Thank you, Trouble!
	♥ 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. I learned last night on EFD's show that Terre T's bed music was from Pierre Henry.
	♥ 11:59am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, Trubble!
	♥ 11:59am Priscilla: Merci Trouble!
	♥ 12:00pm Michael 98145: <<merci>>
	♥ 12:00pm Trouble: merci bien!
	♥ 12:00pm Mick: Thank you Trouble! Joyeux Fete Nationale!

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.

	10:33am Sam: Is Macron going to keep his promise to give everyone free macarons?
	10:36am Linda: Hello! The Pierre Henry, the "Grandfather of Techno," died recently..I know it is unusual to make requests, but do you have any in your awesome collection of French music that you could play???
	10:41am Andal: That song about dreaming of Paris hurt my heart. lived there 3 years ago and miss my friends.
	♥ 10:41am frozen_peas: I still have the biggest crush on a young Daniel Darc.
	10:42am Lewis: @Linda - My guess is that Fabio will do at least one set this afternoon with a focus on Pierre Henry. He did one set last week toward the end of the show if you want a fix right away from the archives... (not that you should forego Trouble of course!)
	♥ 10:43am Tome: FaBuLouS !
	♥ 10:44am The Oscar: Man, I need to check out this comp. Ellie Greenwich was so amazing.
	10:46am Linda: @Lewis Hey thanks! Will check out later... And thank you Trouble!
	10:49am çàö+§: too hot in Geneva, trouble's birds are good but we still need to be cooled down. help¬¬¬¬¬
	10:51am Sam: This jazz organ stuff is brilliant
	♥ 10:52am tadpoles: Always great to hear the TVPs on FMU. Thanks for a great show Trouble.
	♥ 10:54am Trouble: that organ was pierre henry remixed by st germain. cd is trashed, so i took it out and wiped it and will begin again
	♥ 10:55am Trouble: @linda: i plyed some pierre henry last week before i knew he had died! weird...
	10:56am Listener Gregory: This (Jericho Jerk) is a very nice track, but I had to turn off the radio for a second to make sure the gong was coming from the music and not my building's fire alarm!
	10:56am thriftstoreleather: What TVP song was that???
	10:58am Will: That collaboration between Spooky Tooth and Pierre Henry in 1969 will forever lives as one of weirdest experiments ever. Right down to the difficult cover art.
	11:00am Linda: Tous à la Bastille! And RIP Pierre Henry.
	♥ 11:02am steveo: such birds
	11:03am josh: syd barrett lived in cherry hinton, cambridge - just down the road from me. naturally everyone in cambridge had a story about having seen him...
	♥ 11:03am The Oscar: A+ segue!
	11:04am Stay Frosty: Syd...what a troubled genius. Pun intended.
	♥ 11:05am The Oscar: Also @josh I used to work in a used record shop (in the other Cambridge, funny enough) down the road from Tom Lehrer's house. It was always funny reading about what a recluse he is, when I would see him walking down the street every day.
	11:05am jt: This is a very different TVP version than i have heard, I know where "Syd Barret Lives" The album version gives an address at the end of the song.. which turns out to be in Munich, but that was not Syd's real address..
	♥ 11:07am The Oscar: No prob :)
	11:08am Listener142985: I lived in an apartment building on Commonwealth Avenue in Boston where Aerosmith had lived years before when they had no money. Anybody else?
	♥ 11:08am tadpoles: @jt.. You're probably thinking of a live version and if it was Munich it was probably a German tour. TVPs once opened for Pink Floyd and gave out Syd's real address at the end of the song which enraged David Gilmour and he kicked them off the tour.
	11:08am Sam: I saw Michel LeGrand in a tiny little club in Paris. His son was there too, who's also an amazing musician. What a great night. I drank a whiskey that was older than I was. Later I and ended up at the urinal right next to Michel LeGrand's son and said made a little small talk.
	11:08am Stay Frosty: Nothing worse than ornery CDs.
	11:08am Emily: Dear Trouble, oh, I have missed you and the birds. Hope they don't mind the jostling, but it's really nice to hear their twittering! XO
	♥ 11:08am steveo: hi @tadpoles -- I saw the Mothersbaugh show at NYU yesterday; thanks for the heads-up!
	♥ 11:09am steveo: The mechanical musical instruments were just astoundingly lovely.
	11:09am listener mark: Thank you so very much!
	11:10am kevlicki: Hi trouble and all!!
	♥ 11:10am tadpoles: @steveo.. you're welcome.. gave me a whole new appreciation for the guy...do we say "genius"?
	♥ 11:10am steveo: seems safe to say
	♥ 11:11am Trouble: howdy emily! howdy kevlicki!
	11:11am Nick K (Killer): so relaxing...
	11:12am melinda: I like the raga
	11:12am kevlicki: Listener142985 i used to hang at a friends house in Red hook Brooklyn that Alice donut used to have in the 80'-90's. Urban myth was they were bikers and someone had fatally lost a game of Russian roulette
	11:14am kevlicki: Animal collective recorded some tracks in my exe's basement
	11:15am sugarwolf: @steveo: I saw that last month, it was really good!
	11:16am kevlicki: I'm sure there's plenty of people that could contribute many connections to sub-lebrities. Shall we?
	11:16am sugarwolf: The same space had a good show about Charlotte Moorman that I really liked.
	11:19am Listener142985: Kev: I also once seriously startled Oedipus when he was program director at WBCN. My 'BCN intern girlfriend said coke made him jumpy.
	11:21am Ghetto Pastrami: loving all of the French language tunes today. I don't speak French but it still makes for great listening.
	11:22am Andal: wow, they really are singing TVA...
	11:23am Ghetto Pastrami: just throwing this out there but there are a few Stranglers songs with French vocals
	♥ 11:27am Trouble: merci@ghetto pastrami, i will look that up for next year!
	11:27am BEAVO: Trump will be disappointed when he finds out oui out doesn't mean what he thinks it means. Colbert.
	♥ 11:28am The Oscar: @Kev I had a bunch through the record store-- Peter Wolf, Andy Pratt, and Damon Krukowski were all regulars, plus memorable appearances by Courtney Love and DJ Kool Herc. Then there was the time Ron Jeremy scorned me in front of an auditorium full of people, and the time I was in St. Vincent's apartment (though I can't remember if I met her, and it kills me).
	11:29am jt: Brushes w/ Fame dept. : I knew a guy who, over the years, happened to live on three different streets in three different cities where Leonard Cohen had also lived. Parquet Courts had a 'band' photo done in my stairwell, but I had only realized that by looking for their tour dates. I once owned a short that Arlo Guthrie had owned. I eventually gave it away. Heavy aura. Wish I still had that shirt.
	♥ 11:34am Michael 98145: Excellent show, thank you, DJ Trouble. Liberté, égalité, fraternité !
	11:34am peter: Bonne Fete Trouble et Troublistas!
	11:35am Dennis Diken: I met Arnold Stang on a midtown NYC avenue in '88!
	♥ 11:38am Passaic River Blues: This is killer!
	♥ 11:39am -Ken: Agreed Passaic River Blues, this Kensuke Ide is incredible.
	♥ 11:41am Michael 98145: now we dance
	♥ 11:41am Mick: @tadpoles: I also caught the Mark Mothersbaugh show yesterday, many thanks to you for the tip! Agree with steveo that it was astonishing. Sort of ashamed to admit that I had no idea of the breadth of his work - must have been snoozing.
	♥ 11:41am Greg from ZONE 5: Feeling it
	11:43am Laura L: @ Mick and tp--glad you saw it! I designed the announcement for it, which was great fun, and MM loved it. He's a terrific artist and a gent.
	♥ 11:44am tadpoles: @Mick...@Steveo..@Laura L....I still can't get over the 30,000 postcards and yes his instruments are brilliant!
	♥ 11:45am steveo: yes & I also enjoyed the weird miniatures in the basement
	11:47am Laura L: I know--the postcards alone! Whoa! And mixed into those were some Devo dollars--which we used to make long ago in their honor--take a Sharpie and black out letters other than D E V O in "Federal Reserve Note" at top of a dollar bill and you've got yourself a DEVO dollar!
	♥ 11:50am Mick: The instruments were over the top amazing - pulled you into the room no matter what you were looking at. Laura, do you know how many different compositions are programmed into that? The postcards boggled the mind...
	♥ 11:50am Greg from ZONE 5: Holy smokes! I just put that show on my calendar so I don't miss it.
	♥ 11:51am Michael 98145: @LL, heh. i remember doing that ...
	11:52am Jeff: So was that "wooden ships" a different band from the one with the silent "j"? Music is so confusing.
	11:54am Laura L: The instruments were fantastic! Pure happiness! Dunno how many compositions tho. There is a book that goes w/ the exhibition--it was organized by the Denver Museum of Art first, and it's well done. By the way, MM told me Eno showed them the Sharpie-dollar thing first--he was making ENO dollars, so they stared making DEVO dollars. Ha!
	♥ 11:55am Trouble: no jeff, that's my mistypiiiiinggggness
	♥ 11:55am steveo: @mick @laura the person at the desk said there were about 11 different pieces -- I wish I'd had time to stay longer.
	♥ 11:55am tomasz.: that J was silent? i always called them Wooden Shuh-jips
	♥ 11:57am tadpoles: Excellent Laura. Just had to do one in his honour and love the Eno bit although DEVO works better...you can spread it out. Thanks for your nice work. I had to buy the book. Thanks for your nice mix today Trouble.
	♥ 11:58am The Oscar: In my mind I've always called them "Wooden Shyips" (the Danish blood in me, I suppose), but I don't know if I've ever had the opportunity to say it out loud.
	11:58am sugarwolf: <3<3 France Gall
	♥ 11:58am steveo: thank you Trouble; happy bastille day!
	♥ 11:59am Passaic River Blues: Thank you, Trouble!
	♥ 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. I learned last night on EFD's show that Terre T's bed music was from Pierre Henry.
	♥ 11:59am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, Trubble!
	♥ 11:59am Priscilla: Merci Trouble!
	♥ 12:00pm Michael 98145: <<merci>>
	♥ 12:00pm Trouble: merci bien!
	♥ 12:00pm Mick: Thank you Trouble! Joyeux Fete Nationale!
