	3:13pm David (in London): rushes into the Lounge of Failure carrying a large samovar of smoky Russian caravan tea.

	👻 3:24pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Last failure in the eastern-standard timezone. Still not quite used to this being not-thursday, but having it start at 1pm will be a hell of a brain bender.
	3:25pm ∫ydniuß: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:24 I’m your hermit cousin INTP
	3:25pm David (in London): ↳ winston legthigh @3:22 My people operate from a ghost office in Nuneaton and are hidden behind a complex web of offshore holding companies registered in the British Virgin Islands. Best if I just give you a tenner for the dry cleaning I reckon.

	3:28pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ ∫ydniuß @3:25 dang it that means i'm probably a bigger jerk. Js are just awful. (sorry, carmichael. i'm speaking for myself.)
	3:30pm ∫ydniuß: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:28 meh it’s largely just modern phrenology, we all contain multitudes
	3:34pm David (in London): ↳ ∫ydniuß @3:30 Yeah, second that Sydniuß - bad juju of the misapplied kind.
	3:34pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ ∫ydniuß @3:30 no, i really want to believe that of 120 billion people who have lived on earth there are only 16 personalities!!!!
	3:37pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ Song: "Power Spot" by "Jon Hassell" I am sitting in a room, different from the room....
	3:37pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): New Duncan Hannah drop made me look it up and dammit the Hannah on Paper show closed last week.
	3:37pm abbazabba: ↳ Acid Cazh @3:11 The Failures lost, sir. Well, that's just like your opinion, man
	3:38pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:37 That part in Please Kill Me where you find out Duncan Hannah was president of the Television fan club.
	3:38pm Tom from Stirling: Hannah!
	3:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: + hullo btw +
	3:38pm lpfnrobin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:34 Pretty interesting reduction. Im sure there's more than that each moment for some

	3:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Power Spot" by "Jon Hassell" ...this makes me think of AdrianBelew, which is always welcome...
	👻 3:40pm Ken From Hyde Park: When failure begets failure.
	3:40pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ lpfnrobin @3:38 i'm being facetious. i find myers-briggs to be more fun to play with than zodiac for sure.
	3:42pm lpfnrobin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:40 I hear you - I mean when did Nostradamus stop predicting the future??? what a mess that practice is
	3:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: As the resident Astrology Enthusiast - my duty to note that where most only know their Sun Sign - it gives us each a Birth Chart no less involved than this : wfmu.org... - & which one interprets like this : www.facebook.com...
	3:45pm David (in London): The Failure of Prediction.
	3:45pm lpfnrobin: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:44 Nice RR63!!!
	3:46pm Brendan: ↳ abbazabba @3:37 -"This will not stand, you know. This aggression will not stand, man."
	3:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David (in London) @3:45 Read 'Chaos' by James Gleick. The failure of prediction indeed !
	3:50pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:44 okay that looks kind of fun
	3:51pm David (in London): 'Chaos' by Tom O'Neill, likewise. Or is it...?
	3:51pm ∫ydniuß: I’m all for rabbits with bombs
	3:51pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): The two Hannah images displayed today appear to be available if you want to make an inquiry and have a little scratch to spare. www.kasmingallery.com...
	3:52pm lpfnrobin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:50 Yes looks good
	👻 3:55pm winston legthigh: ↳ Song: "Covering the Surface (Excerpt)" by "Marsha Basset... tinnitus triggering.

	3:56pm Ike: Love it.
	4:00pm Handy Haversack: Hello, Fabio, Failsafes.
	4:01pm Handy Haversack: ↳ winston legthigh @3:55 Labyrinthitis triggering, too.

	4:08pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): 20th-century Boy is the name of the memoir.
	4:09pm drumbone: Great show, Fabio! Thanks.
	4:10pm tim: Hello Fabio! Hello everyone!
	4:10pm DjLorraine: I could put the kettle on
	4:10pm slugluv1313: greetings, Fabio! Failure Family! been listening, just laying low (still dealing with sciatica -- i hope none of you ever have to experience this) -- so grateful to be here listening with you all :)
	4:11pm Arthur Negus: Going For a Song, anyone?
	4:12pm Rich from Wading River: Fabio…the antidote to excessive Xmas “cheer”
	👻 4:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid: this scelsi thing is absolute fekkin wonders
	👻 4:15pm Jason from Houston: ↳ Rev. Turnip Druid @4:14 No joke. Wow...
	4:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Ohoi" by "Giancinto Scelsi" ...things like this that are like the sound @ the beginning of 'Master of the Universe' by Hawkwind - but stay in one sorta tone like Horror movie stuff. So then - the thing of how Horror appropriates the Avant ~ Experimental realms ...or does not...
	4:17pm dale: ↳ Song: "Ohoi" by "Giancinto Scelsi" tonally how high can we go?
	4:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Betcha rather harder to realize than one thinks.
	4:17pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Ohoi" by "Giancinto Scelsi" I had to turn the treble somewhat, I admit.
	4:18pm TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @4:17 [treble /down/ somewhat]
	👻 4:19pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Ohoi" by "Giancinto Scelsi" This is headphones recommended listening!
	4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...whenever they saw Giancinto ...oh boy. Here comes treble...
	4:21pm TDK60: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:19 Rev: Well, if ya look for treble.
	4:21pm fred: ↳ slugluv1313 @4:10 I hope you'll recover fast. I had sciatica last year, it was no fun (due to other meds and a blood anomaly, I'm not allowed pain medication, which added to the not-fun)
	4:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ TDK60 @4:21 ...squeak & ye shall find...
	4:22pm bobobob plasticland: wasn't Jon Hassell one of the Oblique Strategies albums the Eno produced?
	4:23pm dan in wisconsin: Anyone read the 33+1⁄3 series of album-themed books? I recently read the one on David Bowie - Low and Suicide - Self-Titled. Both of those books had pretty neat details of the recording processes. Still have Miles Davis - Bitches Brew sitting on the shelf to get to soon. I'm happy to see there's still new ones being published.
	4:25pm tim: ↳ fred @4:21 Hey Fred! Good to see you! I haven't seen you in a while. I've been wanting to tell you that they email you sent me a while back with Sonic Protest related bands was super helpful. I'll be featuring a quite a few on my Radio Row show on Jan. 7.
	👻 4:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:16 Had that exact thought, re: the HW track. X In Search of Space is a #1 LP here for all time, those sounds are chemical/DNA at this point.
	4:26pm tim: ↳ dan in wisconsin @4:23 Yeah, those are pretty fun. It's been a while since I've read one but I think I've read 6-7 overall.
	4:26pm Handy Haversack: ↳ tim @4:25 Ooo, you're doing a Radio Row now as well?! Sweet!
	4:27pm TDK60: ↳ dan in wisconsin @4:23 Dan: I've read a few. Interesting series.
	4:28pm ironybread: This track is me getting my high-frequency hearing back after standing up too fast.
	4:30pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:26 Yes! I feel like I'm becoming a FMU DJ like that Johnny Cash song One Piece At A Time - hahaha! Yeah, on my Radio Row show, I'm playing music made by developmentally disabled/neurodivergent musicians. I'm really happy with how it came out. Then I've got another Rock'n'Soul Drop In on Jan 20th. I'm just playing some high energy jams that night.
	4:30pm dale: really great show so far fabio.
	4:30pm Unearth Noise: damn, UN following the great Jon Hassell - thank you, good sir!
	4:32pm Handy Haversack: ↳ tim @4:30 Year of the Tim!
	4:32pm dan in wisconsin: David Toop's 'An Ocean of Sound' was pretty fun to read. I still need to finish 'All Gates Open: The Story of CAN.'
	4:33pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:32 I know 2024 is going to be really crappy, but not that crappy! ;) Thanks though, man!
	4:35pm fred: ↳ tim @4:25 I'm glad it helped; these musicians deserve exposure beyond the medical sphere. I think I gave you the email of the guy who runs this project, you should send him the link to your Radio Row show when it's done
	4:38pm tim: ↳ fred @4:35 Thanks! Good idea getting letting him know.
	4:41pm headcleaner: Delcy Morelos: El abrazo -- diaart.org...
	👻 4:41pm winston legthigh: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:01 hi/bye handy and failures! im off to see the wizard.
	4:42pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dan in wisconsin @4:23 I liked the ones on Beefheart, Raincoats, Wire's Pink Flag. I've read a bunch but those really stand out. I'm excited to see that they are now expanding the series to other countries. I'm looking forward to the Japan series for sure.
	👻 4:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: Fight Club, you say? Are there rules involved?
	4:43pm fred: ↳ tim @4:38 He can then share it with the bands you feature, I'm sure they'd love to know
	4:44pm tim: Ha! Yeah, The Audition is really good! It's pretty burly too - hahaha!
	4:45pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dan in wisconsin @4:23 How was the Suicide volume? I need to pick it up.
	4:46pm tim: ↳ fred @4:43 Oh, that's awesome. I'll get in touch this week to give him a heads up.
	👻 4:46pm Rev. Turnip Druid: now HERE is a FMU hit. approved.
	4:50pm bobobob fabtriplasticland: Dan in Wisconsin. In reading a book Written by a former Milwaukee resident. Sigmund Snopek in Milwaukee told me about .Called Adventures in Avant pop .chapters on Zappa Yoko Ono Neil Young Joni Mitchell Sun Ra and Sigmund Himself has a chapter
	4:51pm bobobob plasticland: I'm a big Alan Vega fan myself
	4:57pm Juli: Waiting on my neighbor to bring me a Sephora Gift Card I dropped outside getting out of the car lol I tore my home apart looking for the gift card lol I went outside to look & my neighbor happened to be leaving & say hey did you drop a Sephora Gift Card? TG I went outside! I would have had to drive so far & cancel my plans & spend another twenty bucks I do not have on this Secret Santa:::} Timing is beautiful.
	5:04pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @4:21 when i was a child, my father was temporarily paralyzed from the waist down by sciatica... it can get that bad.
	5:04pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:45 It's written quite well. Lots of crossover stories and mentions of the No Wave scene of the late 1970s. It was my entrypoint into the series, so I cannot really contrast it to others within the series. But I will say, if you enjoy Ghost Rider (the comic book source for the song) too, you will especially enjoy it, as it has recurring themes of the rise of the anti-hero as New York was experiencing hardship in the late 1970s.
	5:05pm dale: i wonder if santa and his elves are listening to this in the workshop while they work overtime....
	5:05pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ bobobob plasticland @4:51 I miss that fella. I've seen Martin Rev solo in the last decade but I really wish I'd seen Suicide.
	5:06pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ bobobob fabtriplasticland @4:50 That sounds interesting. I will check into that book.
	5:06pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dan in wisconsin @5:04 oh thanks. i am a 70s NY freak. (disclosure: I wrote the volume on Television & a colleague wrote the one on Some Girls. Both books have a lot of 70s NYC going on.)
	5:11pm DonJuanTijuana: Nice! A little LAMFS
	5:11pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:06 Oh that's awesome! I'm going to check out your book now. Do you know what the issue was between Television and The Damned? Because I know that The Damned took a poke at Marquee Moon in the lyrics to the song 'Idiot Box' which makes me think that The Damned didn't think too highly of Television. I don't know of a whole lot of other bands who made lyrical jokes about other bands, but I'll bet people on this Accu know more than I on that.
	5:12pm P-90: That abominable Dr. Phibes
	5:14pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dan in wisconsin @5:11 Can't remember if I ran across anything specific to it. That is a funny song though. TV had been hyped up in England before there were records to play and then they didn't end up sounding much like what people had imagined from the photos and fliers and write-ups.
	5:15pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:14 Here's a flashback episode of Trouble's show about those two volumes though. wfmu.org...
	5:15pm tom tom the pipers son: an anybody having problems with pop up stream?
	5:15pm Juli: My timing is on fire lately::::} V happy.
	5:16pm RevErie: https://archive.jsonline.com/entertainment/newswatch/238472591.html/
	5:18pm Juli: Smug lol
	5:19pm Scott Williams: hey Tom! not noticing any issues here, what sort of probs are you having?
	5:20pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Scott Williams @5:19 thx, its ok now ...several drop outs in a row
	👻 5:21pm chresti: Yay LAFMS! RIP Ace Farren Ford
	5:24pm tim: What does Derailleur refer to? I only know it as the bicycle part that helps move the chain when shifting.
	5:25pm drumbone: Fabio switched gears using Derailleur! Slick
	5:26pm tim: ↳ drumbone @5:25 Ha! I missed that pun at first.
	5:26pm tom tom the pipers son: re morricone, devon of morricone island did an interview with curator of moma series a few weeks back, recommended
	5:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I like the Jazzes.
	5:27pm slugluv1313: ↳ fred @4:21 thank you! but oh geez -- i am so sorry -- and that sucks about not being able to take pain killers when they could really help
	5:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Home is where the Coltrane is.
	5:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Impressions" by "John Coltrane" ..I was maybe gonna play some Gittar. But now I Listen...
	5:30pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Dunbar Days & Miami Joys" by "Archie Shepp" something kind of half drunk and jokey about the tempo rhythms
	5:33pm coelacanth∅: greetings Fabio, Trane, ravers
	5:33pm Juli: Knock on wood.
	5:34pm dale: oh, the jazz. and it was such a good show, too...
	5:35pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ Song: "Impressions" by "John Coltrane" This is rad. Wish there were more video footage of Coltrane playing with Eric Dolphy. Is Dolphy actually on this cut?
	👻 5:36pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Fabio and all, I'm home now ... Been listening, diggin the tunes!!!
	5:39pm coelacanth∅: ↳ dan in wisconsin @5:35 definitely don't hear him
	5:41pm coelacanth∅: if i remember correctly from the original "impressions" album Dolphy's only on 1 track
	5:41pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:39 You're right. I don't hear a clarinet or any flute....I thought he might show up on this track eventually. Apparently this was a posthumous release. McCoy Tyner is amazing on piano usually too.
	5:42pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Impressions" by "John Coltrane" this from '63 thought it was later...scramblin' them eggs as wayne shorter said
	5:44pm coelacanth∅: yeah the original impressions album was a compilation released in the early 60s (though i have a cd reissue only)
	5:46pm coelacanth∅: here it is www.discogs.com... Dolphy on bass clarinet, but only on one track
	5:49pm tom tom the pipers son: this the correct quote... There's a famous story where someone asks John Coltrane about Shorter's playing, saying it just sounds like scrambled eggs. Coltrane's reply: “Yeah, but it's the way he scrambles them!” In this new group the quartet finds an even more scrambled way of scrambling the eggs.Mar 26, 2013
	5:50pm Handy Haversack: OK, gotta feed the monsters. Thanks, Fabio. Much appreciated.
	5:54pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @5:49 Ha. That's sort of what 'Out There' by Eric Dolphy is like at times. I think it's his master work. Even better than 'Out To Lunch'. Just my opinion though. I'm still finding more and more jazz to explore.
	5:55pm lpfnrobin: Thanks Fabio - got some archive digging to do
	👻 5:57pm chresti: Thanks Fabio!
	5:57pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dan in wisconsin @5:54 been recently exposed to intresting early 70's outings, by 'lesser' players like freddie hubbard, seems electric miles opened ground for others in early 70's
	5:57pm dale: i see what you did here, jesus's birthday and all.
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Fabio ~
	5:58pm HyperDose: Thanks, Fabio!
	5:59pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): Great way to end that show! Thanks, Fabio!
	6:00pm lpfnrobin: ↳ dale @5:57 A Velvet Jesus sounds pretty Fab....ughhh sorry
	👻 6:00pm 2/3 of the Perrin Family: thanks
	👻 6:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Fabio.
	6:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Fabio!
	6:00pm bleubombersune: Fabio Great afternoon of music.......... . All stay safe and be well.
	6:00pm Juli: TY FABIO!!!
	👻 6:02pm Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you Fabio!!!

	3:13pm David (in London): rushes into the Lounge of Failure carrying a large samovar of smoky Russian caravan tea. Trips over a small chihuahua, and is sent sprawling across the floor, tea sloshing about everywhere, over rugs, shoes and the bottoms of everyone's trousers. Evening Fabio and everyone.
	3:13pm βrian: Ah, here we are.
	3:15pm dale: hey now fabio and fabious people. i like this poo stick song.
	3:16pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Brendan @3:13 We have a canine pratfall it seems.

	3:24pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Carmichael @3:21 i'm your introverted cousin, intj.
	👻 3:24pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Last failure in the eastern-standard timezone. Still not quite used to this being not-thursday, but having it start at 1pm will be a hell of a brain bender.
	3:25pm ∫ydniuß: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:24 I’m your hermit cousin INTP
	3:25pm David (in London): ↳ winston legthigh @3:22 My people operate from a ghost office in Nuneaton and are hidden behind a complex web of offshore holding companies registered in the British Virgin Islands. Best if I just give you a tenner for the dry cleaning I reckon.
	3:26pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): Love that late Duncan Hannah painting, Fabio. He died that summer.
	3:26pm spodiodi: nice Hannah painting. recognized his work immediately . amazing
	3:27pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ spodiodi @3:26 wavelengths

	3:28pm headcleaner: ↳ spodiodi @3:26 (finally scrolling down to take a look) ... yep, definitely a lot going on in that painting
	3:28pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ ∫ydniuß @3:25 dang it that means i'm probably a bigger jerk. Js are just awful. (sorry, carmichael. i'm speaking for myself.)
	3:30pm ∫ydniuß: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:28 meh it’s largely just modern phrenology, we all contain multitudes
	3:34pm David (in London): ↳ ∫ydniuß @3:30 Yeah, second that Sydniuß - bad juju of the misapplied kind.
	3:34pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ ∫ydniuß @3:30 no, i really want to believe that of 120 billion people who have lived on earth there are only 16 personalities!!!!
	3:37pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ Song: "Power Spot" by "Jon Hassell" I am sitting in a room, different from the room....
	3:37pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): New Duncan Hannah drop made me look it up and dammit the Hannah on Paper show closed last week.
	3:37pm abbazabba: ↳ Acid Cazh @3:11 The Failures lost, sir. Well, that's just like your opinion, man
	3:38pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:37 That part in Please Kill Me where you find out Duncan Hannah was president of the Television fan club.
	3:38pm Tom from Stirling: Hannah!
	3:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: + hullo btw +
	3:38pm lpfnrobin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:34 Pretty interesting reduction. Im sure there's more than that each moment for some

	👻 3:40pm Ken From Hyde Park: When failure begets failure.
	3:40pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ lpfnrobin @3:38 i'm being facetious. i find myers-briggs to be more fun to play with than zodiac for sure.
	3:42pm lpfnrobin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:40 I hear you - I mean when did Nostradamus stop predicting the future??? what a mess that practice is
	3:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: As the resident Astrology Enthusiast - my duty to note that where most only know their Sun Sign - it gives us each a Birth Chart no less involved than this : wfmu.org... - & which one interprets like this : www.facebook.com...
	3:45pm David (in London): The Failure of Prediction.
	3:45pm lpfnrobin: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:44 Nice RR63!!!
	3:46pm Brendan: ↳ abbazabba @3:37 -"This will not stand, you know. This aggression will not stand, man."
	3:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David (in London) @3:45 Read 'Chaos' by James Gleick. The failure of prediction indeed !
	3:50pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:44 okay that looks kind of fun
	3:51pm David (in London): 'Chaos' by Tom O'Neill, likewise. Or is it...?
	3:51pm ∫ydniuß: I’m all for rabbits with bombs
	3:51pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): The two Hannah images displayed today appear to be available if you want to make an inquiry and have a little scratch to spare. www.kasmingallery.com...
	3:52pm lpfnrobin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:50 Yes looks good
	👻 3:55pm winston legthigh: ↳ Song: "Covering the Surface (Excerpt)" by "Marsha Basset... tinnitus triggering.

	4:08pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): 20th-century Boy is the name of the memoir.
	4:09pm drumbone: Great show, Fabio! Thanks.
	4:10pm tim: Hello Fabio! Hello everyone!
	4:10pm DjLorraine: I could put the kettle on
	4:10pm slugluv1313: greetings, Fabio! Failure Family! been listening, just laying low (still dealing with sciatica -- i hope none of you ever have to experience this) -- so grateful to be here listening with you all :)
	4:11pm Arthur Negus: Going For a Song, anyone?
	4:12pm Rich from Wading River: Fabio…the antidote to excessive Xmas “cheer”
	👻 4:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid: this scelsi thing is absolute fekkin wonders
	👻 4:15pm Jason from Houston: ↳ Rev. Turnip Druid @4:14 No joke. Wow...
	4:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Ohoi" by "Giancinto Scelsi" ...things like this that are like the sound @ the beginning of 'Master of the Universe' by Hawkwind - but stay in one sorta tone like Horror movie stuff. So then - the thing of how Horror appropriates the Avant ~ Experimental realms ...or does not...
	4:17pm dale: ↳ Song: "Ohoi" by "Giancinto Scelsi" tonally how high can we go?
	4:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Betcha rather harder to realize than one thinks.
	4:17pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Ohoi" by "Giancinto Scelsi" I had to turn the treble somewhat, I admit.
	4:18pm TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @4:17 [treble /down/ somewhat]
	👻 4:19pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Ohoi" by "Giancinto Scelsi" This is headphones recommended listening!
	4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...whenever they saw Giancinto ...oh boy. Here comes treble...
	4:21pm TDK60: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:19 Rev: Well, if ya look for treble.
	4:21pm fred: ↳ slugluv1313 @4:10 I hope you'll recover fast. I had sciatica last year, it was no fun (due to other meds and a blood anomaly, I'm not allowed pain medication, which added to the not-fun)
	4:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ TDK60 @4:21 ...squeak & ye shall find...
	4:22pm bobobob plasticland: wasn't Jon Hassell one of the Oblique Strategies albums the Eno produced?
	4:23pm dan in wisconsin: Anyone read the 33+1⁄3 series of album-themed books? I recently read the one on David Bowie - Low and Suicide - Self-Titled. Both of those books had pretty neat details of the recording processes. Still have Miles Davis - Bitches Brew sitting on the shelf to get to soon. I'm happy to see there's still new ones being published.
	4:25pm tim: ↳ fred @4:21 Hey Fred! Good to see you! I haven't seen you in a while. I've been wanting to tell you that they email you sent me a while back with Sonic Protest related bands was super helpful. I'll be featuring a quite a few on my Radio Row show on Jan. 7.
	👻 4:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:16 Had that exact thought, re: the HW track. X In Search of Space is a #1 LP here for all time, those sounds are chemical/DNA at this point.
	4:26pm tim: ↳ dan in wisconsin @4:23 Yeah, those are pretty fun. It's been a while since I've read one but I think I've read 6-7 overall.
	4:26pm Handy Haversack: ↳ tim @4:25 Ooo, you're doing a Radio Row now as well?! Sweet!
	4:27pm TDK60: ↳ dan in wisconsin @4:23 Dan: I've read a few. Interesting series.
	4:28pm ironybread: This track is me getting my high-frequency hearing back after standing up too fast.
	4:30pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:26 Yes! I feel like I'm becoming a FMU DJ like that Johnny Cash song One Piece At A Time - hahaha! Yeah, on my Radio Row show, I'm playing music made by developmentally disabled/neurodivergent musicians. I'm really happy with how it came out. Then I've got another Rock'n'Soul Drop In on Jan 20th. I'm just playing some high energy jams that night.
	4:30pm dale: really great show so far fabio.
	4:30pm Unearth Noise: damn, UN following the great Jon Hassell - thank you, good sir!
	4:32pm Handy Haversack: ↳ tim @4:30 Year of the Tim!
	4:32pm dan in wisconsin: David Toop's 'An Ocean of Sound' was pretty fun to read. I still need to finish 'All Gates Open: The Story of CAN.'
	4:33pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:32 I know 2024 is going to be really crappy, but not that crappy! ;) Thanks though, man!
	4:35pm fred: ↳ tim @4:25 I'm glad it helped; these musicians deserve exposure beyond the medical sphere. I think I gave you the email of the guy who runs this project, you should send him the link to your Radio Row show when it's done
	4:38pm tim: ↳ fred @4:35 Thanks! Good idea getting letting him know.
	4:41pm headcleaner: Delcy Morelos: El abrazo -- diaart.org...
	👻 4:41pm winston legthigh: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:01 hi/bye handy and failures! im off to see the wizard.
	4:42pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dan in wisconsin @4:23 I liked the ones on Beefheart, Raincoats, Wire's Pink Flag. I've read a bunch but those really stand out. I'm excited to see that they are now expanding the series to other countries. I'm looking forward to the Japan series for sure.
	👻 4:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: Fight Club, you say? Are there rules involved?
	4:43pm fred: ↳ tim @4:38 He can then share it with the bands you feature, I'm sure they'd love to know
	4:44pm tim: Ha! Yeah, The Audition is really good! It's pretty burly too - hahaha!
	4:45pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dan in wisconsin @4:23 How was the Suicide volume? I need to pick it up.
	4:46pm tim: ↳ fred @4:43 Oh, that's awesome. I'll get in touch this week to give him a heads up.
	👻 4:46pm Rev. Turnip Druid: now HERE is a FMU hit. approved.
	4:50pm bobobob fabtriplasticland: Dan in Wisconsin. In reading a book Written by a former Milwaukee resident. Sigmund Snopek in Milwaukee told me about .Called Adventures in Avant pop .chapters on Zappa Yoko Ono Neil Young Joni Mitchell Sun Ra and Sigmund Himself has a chapter
	4:51pm bobobob plasticland: I'm a big Alan Vega fan myself
	4:57pm Juli: Waiting on my neighbor to bring me a Sephora Gift Card I dropped outside getting out of the car lol I tore my home apart looking for the gift card lol I went outside to look & my neighbor happened to be leaving & say hey did you drop a Sephora Gift Card? TG I went outside! I would have had to drive so far & cancel my plans & spend another twenty bucks I do not have on this Secret Santa:::} Timing is beautiful.
	5:04pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @4:21 when i was a child, my father was temporarily paralyzed from the waist down by sciatica... it can get that bad.
	5:04pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:45 It's written quite well. Lots of crossover stories and mentions of the No Wave scene of the late 1970s. It was my entrypoint into the series, so I cannot really contrast it to others within the series. But I will say, if you enjoy Ghost Rider (the comic book source for the song) too, you will especially enjoy it, as it has recurring themes of the rise of the anti-hero as New York was experiencing hardship in the late 1970s.
	5:05pm dale: i wonder if santa and his elves are listening to this in the workshop while they work overtime....
	5:05pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ bobobob plasticland @4:51 I miss that fella. I've seen Martin Rev solo in the last decade but I really wish I'd seen Suicide.
	5:06pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ bobobob fabtriplasticland @4:50 That sounds interesting. I will check into that book.
	5:06pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dan in wisconsin @5:04 oh thanks. i am a 70s NY freak. (disclosure: I wrote the volume on Television & a colleague wrote the one on Some Girls. Both books have a lot of 70s NYC going on.)
	5:11pm DonJuanTijuana: Nice! A little LAMFS
	5:11pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:06 Oh that's awesome! I'm going to check out your book now. Do you know what the issue was between Television and The Damned? Because I know that The Damned took a poke at Marquee Moon in the lyrics to the song 'Idiot Box' which makes me think that The Damned didn't think too highly of Television. I don't know of a whole lot of other bands who made lyrical jokes about other bands, but I'll bet people on this Accu know more than I on that.
	5:12pm P-90: That abominable Dr. Phibes
	5:14pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dan in wisconsin @5:11 Can't remember if I ran across anything specific to it. That is a funny song though. TV had been hyped up in England before there were records to play and then they didn't end up sounding much like what people had imagined from the photos and fliers and write-ups.
	5:15pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:14 Here's a flashback episode of Trouble's show about those two volumes though. wfmu.org...
	5:15pm tom tom the pipers son: an anybody having problems with pop up stream?
	5:15pm Juli: My timing is on fire lately::::} V happy.

	5:18pm Juli: Smug lol
	5:19pm Scott Williams: hey Tom! not noticing any issues here, what sort of probs are you having?
	5:20pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Scott Williams @5:19 thx, its ok now ...several drop outs in a row
	👻 5:21pm chresti: Yay LAFMS! RIP Ace Farren Ford
	5:24pm tim: What does Derailleur refer to? I only know it as the bicycle part that helps move the chain when shifting.
	5:25pm drumbone: Fabio switched gears using Derailleur! Slick
	5:26pm tim: ↳ drumbone @5:25 Ha! I missed that pun at first.
	5:26pm tom tom the pipers son: re morricone, devon of morricone island did an interview with curator of moma series a few weeks back, recommended
	5:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I like the Jazzes.
	5:27pm slugluv1313: ↳ fred @4:21 thank you! but oh geez -- i am so sorry -- and that sucks about not being able to take pain killers when they could really help
	5:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Home is where the Coltrane is.
	5:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Impressions" by "John Coltrane" ..I was maybe gonna play some Gittar. But now I Listen...
	5:30pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Dunbar Days & Miami Joys" by "Archie Shepp" something kind of half drunk and jokey about the tempo rhythms
	5:33pm coelacanth∅: greetings Fabio, Trane, ravers
	5:33pm Juli: Knock on wood.
	5:34pm dale: oh, the jazz. and it was such a good show, too...
	5:35pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ Song: "Impressions" by "John Coltrane" This is rad. Wish there were more video footage of Coltrane playing with Eric Dolphy. Is Dolphy actually on this cut?
	👻 5:36pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Fabio and all, I'm home now ... Been listening, diggin the tunes!!!
	5:39pm coelacanth∅: ↳ dan in wisconsin @5:35 definitely don't hear him
	5:41pm coelacanth∅: if i remember correctly from the original "impressions" album Dolphy's only on 1 track
	5:41pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:39 You're right. I don't hear a clarinet or any flute....I thought he might show up on this track eventually. Apparently this was a posthumous release. McCoy Tyner is amazing on piano usually too.
	5:42pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Impressions" by "John Coltrane" this from '63 thought it was later...scramblin' them eggs as wayne shorter said
	5:44pm coelacanth∅: yeah the original impressions album was a compilation released in the early 60s (though i have a cd reissue only)
	5:46pm coelacanth∅: here it is www.discogs.com... Dolphy on bass clarinet, but only on one track
	5:49pm tom tom the pipers son: this the correct quote... There's a famous story where someone asks John Coltrane about Shorter's playing, saying it just sounds like scrambled eggs. Coltrane's reply: “Yeah, but it's the way he scrambles them!” In this new group the quartet finds an even more scrambled way of scrambling the eggs.Mar 26, 2013
	5:50pm Handy Haversack: OK, gotta feed the monsters. Thanks, Fabio. Much appreciated.
	5:54pm dan in wisconsin: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @5:49 Ha. That's sort of what 'Out There' by Eric Dolphy is like at times. I think it's his master work. Even better than 'Out To Lunch'. Just my opinion though. I'm still finding more and more jazz to explore.
	5:55pm lpfnrobin: Thanks Fabio - got some archive digging to do
	👻 5:57pm chresti: Thanks Fabio!
	5:57pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dan in wisconsin @5:54 been recently exposed to intresting early 70's outings, by 'lesser' players like freddie hubbard, seems electric miles opened ground for others in early 70's
	5:57pm dale: i see what you did here, jesus's birthday and all.
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Fabio ~
	5:58pm HyperDose: Thanks, Fabio!
