I play music that is old and that is new. Some of it is digital while some is analog. It is from many different countries; sometimes it is loud and at other times it is quiet.

Yes, I'm recovering and have fewer doctor appointments now. And I received my christmas present to myself today: the Dust to digital bundle of their 2016 releases

I've been doing that for a few years, ordering once to save on shipping. The bargain on the bundle was a nice surprise, I hope they will keep doing that

Nice Gavin Bryars track

Yeah! This album of Gavin Bryars is quite beautiful.

This makes it 4 clicky-stars in a row, I might as well favorite the show already

haha, despite of the show started with "wonderful christmastime"?!

Back from the kitchen! That set was excellent chili-making music!

Joy Division was my first-ever karaoke, back in April. "Love Will Tear Us Apart" in my case. My friends aren't much up for it, so I never had the chance. Fortunately I was a roomful of hundreds of tipsy copy editors at a convention's afterparty and the margaritas were strong in my veins.

Mayuko:

welcome back james! now I'm hungry and want some chili!!
Happy holidays to you too, Doctorjazz, thank you for tuning in!

Dust to Digital released a 2CD+book set of Lomax' prison recordings called Parchman Farm. I think it's out of print, but there's probably a copy in the library.
Also, wasn't your bed music a Bjork track?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:00pm
listener james from westwood:

So I went for one of the classics; with my tremendously narrow vocal range, Curtis was a good match.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:03pm
fred:

@james: I'll take your word that your range is narrow, but you still need a deep voice to pull it off. I certainly couldn't
Avatar 1:07pm
Mayuko:

Can't imagine Joy Division on Karaoke! Doesn't it make people feel sad and wanting to go home crying rather than partying?!?!
Avatar 1:08pm
Mayuko:

and yes, that was a Bjork track, which I only realized now that it was way too fast to talk over.

Doug Schulkind:

Blue Saturday!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:11pm
listener james from westwood:

New Order!! This too would be on my karaoke list. (Why yes, I was a heavy WDRE/WLIR listener as a youth.)

@fred: Yelling over a crowd all night helped deepen my vocal cords juuuuust enough.

Mayuko:

Doug! Happy Saturdays!

Mayuko:

haha, I CAN imagine New Order on karaoke, that must be fun!

listener james from westwood:

@Mayuko: Years ago I made chili for the masses during a WFMU Marathon. Nobody went to the hospital, so I'll take that as a success. :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:13pm
listener james from westwood:

Doug! Good tidings be on your house!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:14pm
fred:

Blue Monday was the first New Order track I heard (years before hearing about Joy Division) at a cousin's birthday party. I annoyed the DJ to learn what it was then spent the remaining years of the 80's converting Depeche Mode fans to New Order
Avatar 1:14pm
Mayuko:

Hopefully I'll see you next time during the marathon 2017, james! (((and your food))) if you're around!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:17pm
Doug Schulkind:

And may good tidings ebb and flow their way to Westwood, Listener James!
Avatar 1:19pm
Mayuko:

It must have been True Faith that I heard New Order for the first time, since it was a huge hit in Japan too. Previous singles must have been too but I don't remember hearing them then.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:20pm
fred:

Actually, Blue Monday wasn't the first. New Order tracks were used as theme and/or background music in music shows on French TV (including the top hits countdown). I just didn't know it was New Order
  1:21pm
Ike:

I don't think James's chili is Jewish. (IS there such a thing as Jewish chili?)
Avatar 1:24pm
Mayuko:

Blue Monday was used for some TV commercial too, is that right? I don't know how one can handle it when you write a song about a close friend who committed suicide, and hear it being used to sell some irrelevant products. That must be surreal.
  1:30pm
Ike:

Sorry, that was a very silly proofreading joke (sort of).

That was a fast two hours. Thanks, Mayuko, and enjoy the holidays. Can't believe it'll be New Years Eve next Saturday already.

THIS would be my pick for karaoke though!!!

Then again, keeping christmas trees around turns them into a fire hazard
