	9:03am Jenny: Gooood morning Trouble!!
	♥ 9:05am Trouble: Peter Nencini is our fabulous artist of the day today!
	♥ 9:06am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, folks. I tuned in at 9:00 on the dot.
	♥ 9:07am Trouble: promptness is appreciated here @kenfromhyde park
	9:08am josh: this is dreamy goodness..
	9:09am baker nick: hello from montclair
	♥ 9:16am Webhamster Henry: Trouble in mind!
	♥ 9:17am Trouble: hello from jersey city, where last i checked the statue of liberty is still in the harbor
	♥ 9:17am Webhamster Henry: You should be playing Laurie Spiegel. Anything from "The Expanding Universe" will do.
	9:19am baker nick: love this
	♥ 9:20am Trouble: Love laurie spiegel!!
	♥ 9:28am adampsyche: omg this song is great
	♥ 9:29am Passaic River Blues: Love the rhythm on this one. Funky, nyabinghi flourishes, dubbyness--awesome!
	♥ 9:29am melinda: hi everyone!
	♥ 9:30am Adrian in London: Hello squirrels!! Snowed under at work so listening not chatting. Sounding good though.
	♥ 9:30am adampsyche: this ended up on the latest A Tribe Called Quest if I'm not mistaken (Whateva Will Be track)
	♥ 9:36am adampsyche: PLAY IT AGAIN SAM
	9:37am Mark Williams: @Trouble - it's the same cut as the original 1975. You have a more recent pressing (not sure if it's a boot or not) by a label that is just putting songs that were never paired together originally. DJ culture reissue, in other words.
	9:38am dfb: start every set with it !
	9:40am Itzall Ablurr: Regarding today's minimalist/abstract artwork- I'm seeing a hockey skirmish with the guy on the lower right heading down ice after bowling over the guy up top, who appears to also be a Pittsburgh Penguin. Go Jaromir! Also, may I have one more large coffee, please?...
	9:40am Mark Williams: also, I think it might've been a take on an earlier reggae song by Carlton & the Shoes, but I need to listen closely again to see if I'm right. Have a listen yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4M3b1UhIzc
	♥ 9:42am Sem Chumbo: Oh, yeah. What a groove.
	♥ 9:42am Trouble: thanks @markwilliams. will look that up and listen later. howdy adrian!
	♥ 9:43am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Trouble and all!
	9:43am miles: yeah but what IS a dollar?
	9:45am Itzall Ablurr: Dear miles, here's ONE example of a very angry one: en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 9:47am Michele: Damn Trouble, GREAT show so far.
	♥ 9:49am Waking Bacon: Chain and the Gang :)
	♥ 9:51am The Oscar: I remember a PBS spot a few years ago that used the Clash's version of this to promote their weekly schedule (for the "Monday-Tuesday-Wednesday" bit). It was a little surreal to hear "Police On My Back" over clips of Arthur.
	♥ 9:51am Trouble: merci! @michele!
	♥ 9:51am adampsyche: i like this better than the original
	9:55am Marc Francis: That was fun!!!!!

This Is The Modern World with Trouble: Playlist from August 3, 2017

View Trouble's profile

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.
