WFMU: Irwin Chusid: Playlist from February 27, 2013

Listener comments!
	👻 3:00pm rrg: Arf Noon!
	👻 3:00pm rrg: Irwin was actually a little early today.
	👻 3:05pm G: Yes, we are here :-) Sean Daily, I mean rrg, just makes us all look lethargic...
	3:06pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: LeeMorganMania - ! Frank Zappa - "Jazz isn't dead. It just smells funny."
	👻 3:06pm rrg: All right, all right. I'll get this Jenny O. album. You've convinced me.
	3:07pm Matt from Springfield: That Mr. Daily! Jenny-O-Mania, too!
	3:07pm Matt from Springfield: We're only going backwards, listening to this Tame Impala track over and over.
	3:09pm Caryn: Man, the rhythm of this Tame Impala is quite hypnotic... Never noticed before.
	👻 3:10pm rrg: Is this the song that those kids sang? I forget.
	3:10pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...On the outside chance that Posting the Stream Address for somewhere else isn't the greatest gauchest faux paux there could be : - Radio Free Americana : http://sc9.shoutcaststreaming.us:9526/ ...& if it in fact is - I got first dibbs - !...
	3:10pm Matt from Springfield: "I connected with Thomas by telephone in April 2012. He began the conversations with a plea for help, saying he was living with a demon inside him, a second personality he called “Erwin.” He wanted to learn how to control Erwin, how to stop the badness. Erwin, he said, was the rapist. Aaron, he said, was a good person, a family man, someone who helped the elderly and had love for everyone. “Erwin would show up, and things would happen in the middle of the night,” Thomas said. “He only comes around when I’m lonely.”"
	3:11pm Matt from Springfield: Irwin: Stopping The Badness Since 1975.
	3:11pm Barb: Irwin is master of the Earworm - I've had Jenny O. and Tame Impala in my head since last week's show!
	3:12pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Okay, Matt. You win.
	3:12pm Matt from Springfield: @rrg: Yes, it is the one the Brooklyn kids choir sang. @Barb: "Master of Earworms he's pulling your...um, ears?"
	3:12pm Caryn: That stream address reminds me, anyone hear that Samuel L. Jackson version of the Taylor Swift song?
	3:13pm steve: i love that Tam Impala song but fear how long it will be before it gets licensed and we hear it in a car commercial...
	3:14pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20120411-why-do-songs-stick-in-our-heads
	👻 3:15pm rrg: There's a waiting room?
	3:16pm Matt from Springfield: New Jersey Voter Initiative #5238-13-B: "Does DJ Duane rock a lot?", has passed 100% in favor, with 2 votes.
	3:16pm hamburger: nice Ken #Burns! :o)
	3:16pm Sam: Ken prefers to annoy rather than rock
	👻 3:16pm G: Ken must feel an affinity??
	3:17pm Matt from Springfield: @rrg: There's the Green Room. It's yours for a year for only $180! www.flickr.com...
	3:17pm Sam: I agree, Duane rocks 100%
	3:18pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Does he deliver the Taylor Swift w/ the Evangelical Conviction of his Pulp Fiction lines - ?!? - Mahogany Rush- ! ...Saw him in Boston few years ago - & it was KEWL people - !
	3:18pm Sugarfly Waterloo: I think I'll be aiming for an animated icon this marathon.
	3:18pm Matt from Springfield: Nice Mahogany Rush! @Caryn: I haven't--where did SLJ sing it, at an awards show, as a novelty MP3?
	👻 3:18pm AnAnonymousParty: Yay! Frank Marino!
	3:19pm steve: if we're still counting i also would vote in favor of "Duane rocks"
	👻 3:20pm rrg: Mahogany Rush? Now that's a phrase I haven't heard in a long time.
	3:21pm Caryn: @RRN63 & Matt: on another radio station, which is why I am resisting posting the link. Ah, what the hell: ondemandpopout.musicradio.com...
	👻 3:23pm rrg: RRN63 turns 50 this year. I'm guessing.
	3:24pm Marc: So Irwin, are you saying that Ken only plays music sung by Republicans?
	3:24pm Andy in Tucson: This sounds like Ray Davies.
	3:24pm Andy in Tucson: This sounds like Ray Davies.
	3:25pm Andy in Tucson: Or R Hitchcock.
	3:25pm Sugarfly Waterloo: that Mahogany Rush had a bit of Hendrix vibe to it.
	👻 3:26pm rrg: New talkover music?
	3:26pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: OhYahs Caryn!: This's gonna be GOOD... - It doesn't seem FMU stylee to get all Big Brother about the existence of other stuff out there - but I'm still pretty new here & not up to the Urban Etiquette of the Regal Jersyites 'n' stuff like that...
	👻 3:27pm rrg: Edited, well...
	👻 3:28pm G: Yeah, as in the comments are not edited.
	3:28pm Matt from Springfield: The PROF - is - the BOF!
	👻 3:28pm rrg: Ice cream and tea would be even better.
	3:29pm Caryn: @RRN63: I will also cover my tuchus by now stating that I believe everything else on that radio station is probably total crap, but as I never listen to them, but to WFMU, I wouldn't know. There, that should be better.
	3:29pm common: love the professor
	👻 3:29pm G: Cornetto, there's a word I haven't heard since I lived in the UK.
	3:29pm Matt from Springfield: Too much ice cream+tea can produce calcium oxide kidneystones. I remember that from an "ER" many years ago. To date, not sure how true that is...
	3:29pm Caryn: Yay, the prof is back!
	3:30pm Matt from Springfield: Yummy! I'll have a chocolate labrador, Professor!
	👻 3:30pm rrg: I'll risk it.
	3:31pm Jennique: I bought tickets to see Bow Wow Wow live this weekend in Brooklyn, only to later find out that Annabella will NOT be singing. I mean, what is the POINT? Feel cheated.
	3:31pm Droll: . o O ( I love a delicious double-scoop cone of horsemeat and salted caramel ice cream! )
	3:32pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...@ rrg: Hmmm - the Force is strong w/ this one... @ Sugarfly: If ya can find the infamous Lester Bangs thang about Mahogany Rush - ya should...altho' he's sorta wrong & Frank Marino is great go see him - ! Bangs trashed MC5 in his first article too - so go figure...
	3:32pm Caryn: I'll have a 99, prof! Just because I didn't have one while in the UK. (In reality, a banoffee ice cream would be better.)
	3:33pm Matt from Springfield: Salty sticky horsey!
	3:34pm Matt from Springfield: @Caryn: Interesting! In the US that would prob be like a Dulce de Leche/Toffee combo, something Ben & Jerry would make.
	3:35pm Listening Out There: ...typo in the playlist? Should it be "Liz Tunekill"?
	3:35pm Matt from Springfield: Avant-garde lyrics and super lo-fi electronica! Woohoo!
	3:35pm Listening Out There: ...nonetheless, I haven't heard anything else like it so far today...
	3:36pm Caryn: @Matt: yep, it's just an ice cream equivalent of banoffee pie. Every chain has their own version of it. My time in the UK was very coloured by Ben & Jerry's and banoffee pie ice cream.
	3:36pm Michael: Howdy Irwin and howdy fellow listeners.
	3:37pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: Kidney Stones are worth avoiding. Trust me on this. (...I am saying something of significance. You heard her.) ...Like giving birth to rocks thru the tube twixt yer kideny & bladder. - Esp. great if you have no freaking idea what's happening yet...
	3:37pm Caryn: Woohoo, the Ruts!
	3:37pm Matt from Springfield: @Caryn: Oooh! A 99 Flake, just heard of that, so I certainly will get one next time I'm in the UK! en.wikipedia.org... And hey - they have a "Monkey's Blood" variant! Perfect for the Prof!
	👻 3:38pm G: I see Michael's icon found Prof Elemental's pimped out van.
	👻 3:39pm rrg: Stereo!
	3:42pm Sem Chumbo: King Louie, Ho!
	3:42pm Matt from Springfield: King Louie's a nice crooner! And is there an INSTRO version of that backing track?!! PERFECT for bed music!
	3:43pm northguineahills: Don Ho not good enough?
	👻 3:44pm rrg: Oh, THIS I have to hear...
	3:45pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...No 'irony' in 'Surrey w/ the Fringe on Top' - ohhh nooo...
	👻 3:45pm rrg: Chicks and ducks and geese.
	3:45pm Matt from Springfield: Oh dear Lord, now this CPE! This would make PERFECT bed music as is! I'm suffering from choice bed music paralysis!!!! Yeah!!!!!!!
	👻 3:46pm rrg: Hey, I like this stuff. Don't you?
	3:46pm Matt from Springfield: YES! And now the classic "Tropical" bed! Love this one!
	👻 3:47pm rrg: Looks fine to me.
	👻 3:47pm G: Well, isn't that special :)
	3:48pm Caryn: @Matt: As I am neither a fan of the Flake (give me a Mint Aero any day) or soft-serve ice cream, I resisted it, but I kinda feel like it's such a cultural icon, I should have it one day (like how I felt I had to order a corned beef on rye once when in NY). Heck, my love of KLF alone makes me feel like I should have one one day.
	3:48pm Listening Out There: ...S'not much that Irwin knows about Liz T, eh?
	👻 3:49pm rrg: If we never say "91.1" on-air anymore, why do we have to say "91.9" for Rockland County?
	👻 3:50pm rrg: If I couldn't describe something, then I'd stumble through the interview too.
	3:51pm Caryn: @rrg: because it's still so new? Because they're really sensitive over there? Who knows.
	3:51pm Matt from Springfield: Another fine one from Steinberg, Inc.!
	3:53pm Caryn: Steinberg wrote this after his initial songs: "Where in the world is Carmen?" and "Oh, there you are, Carmen". He then followed this with "Sorry to wake you up, Carmen" and "Stop hitting me, Carmen!"
	3:53pm Matt from Springfield: @rrg: Because it's merely a repeater, the letters are something like W2XWP or something like that. I don't think we're required to announce those repeaters of other stations in FCC rules, but FMU probably does that to acknowledge our audience in Rockland County.
	3:54pm Matt from Springfield: Caryn, Don't Worry (repeat riff ad nauseum)
	3:55pm Listening Out There: ...fun program thus far. I'm enjoying it...
	3:56pm Droll: It's W220DQ New City, but as you note, as a MFU translator it's not required in the Legal Incantation. I think they just want to give fair warning to all the new victims. I mean fans -- New City fans.
	3:57pm Alison Porchnik: This is really nice reading-when-I-should-be-working four-o'clock-slump music. Please, sir, may we have another? (after the interview, of course).
	3:58pm Matt from Springfield: Poor guy in the rear, he's getting drafted.
	👻 3:59pm G: My grandmother bought this 45 for us kids when it came out. What she thought we were going to get out of it about politics I can't imagine. :)
	👻 3:59pm Alison Porchnik: frigging hippies, squares, and centrist freaks, all of em.
	3:59pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ..She plucked a banana outta her headress & gave it to him good ...then he told her Marilyn Monroe did a better job of 'Having a Heat Wave' - & it was all over... - Saw some thing someone was trying to get all Higbrow on Zappa - & he pointed out that 'Carmen' is all about a bigtime whore...
	4:00pm Matt from Springfield: "Warning, you're listening to a WFMU station!" W-Two Twenty-Dairy Queen, 91.9.
	👻 4:00pm G: OK, she was married to a federal administrative law judge, that must explain it.
	4:02pm Matt from Springfield: @G: It has a fun beat, chorus endings reminiscent of "talking blues", involves violence and a lesson on manners. The political "positions" would be too opaque, but I think it's a folk song suitable for kids.
	👻 4:02pm Alison Porchnik: Thanks, Irwin!
	4:02pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: Will no one play 'Chicken in Black' by Cash?
	👻 4:04pm G: She also got us "I Got Swallowed By a Boa Constrictor and I Don't Like Snakes One Bit." Any insight there?
	4:05pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Born in the (Todd Browning) USA....
	4:06pm Matt from Springfield: Warning, you're listening to Nick Brooke! Good afternoon from WFMU! >:)
	4:07pm Clark Barr: There is nothing wrong with your radio. Irwin is controlling transmission.
	4:08pm Matt from Springfield: @G: It would suggest she was a supporter of children's music, which was mainly that silly sort of folk at that time. Woody Guthrie is said to be the first to release an album of children's music, and as Bob Dylan points out, Leadbelly is one of the very few ex-cons to go on to release a successful children's album.
	👻 4:08pm rrg: And the horizontal and the vertical. And the Indian-head test pattern.
	4:09pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: @ mention of Freakshows (gabba gabba) : - Anybody know the book 'The Monster Show' by David J. Skal - ?
	4:11pm Droll: rrg, Yeah, I think that's the point: no matter where you set the dial or adjust the knobs, you receive all the messages (but not completely, and in no particular order). I like the collage.
	4:12pm Matt from Springfield: Yep, Nick Brooke now officially exists. en.wikipedia.org... But, no photo! Someone find one!
	4:13pm Gamelan Listener: Sigh, I give up...
	4:16pm paula pc: I needed this today...thank you both...
	👻 4:16pm rrg: Hey, Irwin really DID write that Wikipedia page.
	👻 4:17pm G: No stalking Irwin's wikipedia handle for all his edits, you creeps.
	👻 4:17pm G: :-)
	👻 4:18pm rrg: You'll never guess mine.
	👻 4:19pm G: "quadra" and "tetra" are four in Latin and Greek. logy is from Greek. it should be tetra
	4:19pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...I find the parallels & connections between 'Monster Culture' (Horror & SciFi Genres) - & Rock'n'Roll/CounterCulture pretty illuminating...but then I would, wouldn't I... - Charles Ives, Harry Partch, John Cage, Harry Smith, Dylan are all coming to mind... - Maybe this is Contempo. (?) American Gamelon...
	👻 4:19pm G: rrg, possibly :P
	4:20pm Caryn: @RRN63: while I don't agree with all of Skal's conclusions, it is a good book.
	👻 4:21pm Alison Porchnik: RRN63 - there are also some interesting connections between rock n' roll and alien/UFO enthusiast culture.
	4:22pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Tom Waits ...now he mentions Theatre, why not invoke Artaud & what he said about Sound... - Paraphrase Phillip Glass: ...'It sounds really obvious - but if you're not coming up w/ New Technique - you probably don't have anything New to Say - !'...
	4:23pm paula pc: this is WONDERFUL
	👻 4:23pm rrg: It's too hard to add a photo to a Wikipedia article. Maybe later.
	👻 4:24pm rrg: This reminds me a lot of early Mothers albums.
	👻 4:25pm G: you gotta own the image, have permission, fair use, etc. You can't just copy any picture into wikipedia the you can find on the interwebz. Not everyone wants their picture there, either. Wikipedia has lots of BLP (Bio of Living Person) regs.
	4:29pm paula pc: his website has pic for nick brooke - can we buy this recording somewhere - I can't find a way but I didn't try too hard yet I admi
	4:29pm Irwin: label: Innova.mu
	4:30pm paula pc: whoops he ain't there no more (2/14) -- THANKS Irwin!!!!!
	4:30pm Irwin: rrg: interesting comparison. It is sorta Lumpy Gravyish.
	4:31pm Droll: G, It so happens I've been studying intellectual property rights as they pertain to The Internets, please allow me clarify: If the IP belongs to a musician, do as thou wilt. Otherwise the local national laws apply and are strictly enforced.
	4:31pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: - @ rrg: Yeah! Mothers...I think it took Zappa some time & trouble to find his PLace twixt High & Lowbrow & make sense of it all - John Lennon: ...'before Rock'n'Roll - there were Cowboys w/ guitars!' ...I've read a couple of books about the History of the Guitar recently - & it's interesting stuff alright... - @ Caryn: - Makes sense about Skal - but I haven't encountered another that nails 'Monster Culture' like that yet...
	4:32pm Irwin: www.amazon.com...
	4:32pm paula pc: you even hyper-linked the album cover -- duh on my part. THANKS, Irwin!!
	4:32pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: And as Malcolm McLaren said, before Rock 'n Roll there was square dancing, and its associated moral panic!
	4:34pm Jack DeRider: Whatever the hell "deconstruction" means...
	4:36pm paula pc: well jack I'm totally with you...but I like the way this sounds in and of itself...but have been thinking a lot about the post-mo vs. mo part
	4:37pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Even Lennon was like this on 'I Am the Walrus' & certainly Revolution 9 - & literally 'played the radio' on 'Two Virgins' @ least as rhythm ...It's 'collage' seems to me - that's all - ! 'Mash-up' is new argot not needed here...
	👻 4:38pm G: @Droll: Whatever possessed you to study something so dry as IP law :P
	4:39pm paula pc: well there's love in here and not condescension...I think that comes thru in the collage and the way the singers interact with it...you agree Irwin or am I naive or do you not care
	👻 4:40pm rrg: Because TCP and IP are the only law that matters.
	👻 4:41pm rrg: I don't think Irwin ever plays things that he doesn't care about in one way or another.
	4:42pm Irwin: rrg: Which is why no Cat Stevens, Ella F, or Tuvan throat singing.
	4:42pm Droll: I like the music, but I'm completely floored by the composer -- I think I prefer listening to him speak about the methods and intentions more than listening to the end results. This certainly qualifies as "Concept Album", but not the traditional kind. G, I didn't choose IP, it chose me. Apparently I am the only person on your planet who thinks musicians suffer most from theft, not lack of opportunity.
	4:42pm paula pc: @ rrg - yep I mean the question of how much condescension figures into this project
	4:43pm paula pc: but I think what they are talking about now covers it
	4:43pm Irwin: Gawd, I played Cat Stevens in 2003.
	4:44pm paula pc: @ droll -- I initially thought NO on this guy but I'm 100% won over...and what he and Irwin are saying right now is spot-on
	👻 4:45pm rrg: I know that song.
	4:45pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: What's happening Now w/ the whole 'Americana' Genre is very intertesting to me ...I see it as almost a Political thing of reclaiming Country from all the people Johnny Cash might have been giving the finger to - certainly by the time he was working for Rick Rubin on American... ...A lot of this is like what Cage said about 'audition' - which means literally the Act of Listening...
	4:47pm Matt from Springfield: Likewise, I also like listening to Nick's discussions and musical concepts, moreso than the final product. Thanks Nick for coming in! Thanks to Irwin and WFMU!
	4:50pm Caryn: Yep, the interview bits have been fascinating. Nice booking, Irwin!
	4:50pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: All those terms are probably popularized as the result of micro-marketing. "Americana", like you said, is probably aimed at those outside the social/political core of modern country, playing a kind of country/folk rock that is acceptable for AAA station play, yet not really staying in any one genre.
	4:53pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...I think the 'Post-Modern Question' definitely is relevant in terms of what is 'Folk' (Barbara Allen? Dylan?) 'Classical' (Stockhausen? Eleanor Rigby?) or 'Pop' (Teenage Fanclub? Justin Beiber?) anymore anyhow... - We forget that Mozart was a syphilitic improvising party-animal in his own time... - yeah, Cage: It's about Context. ...Ferinstance: It ticks me off that people still believe Rockfans are dumb & ill-informed in face of all the evidence...We are in fact the Gnostics (the Knowers) - !...
	👻 4:55pm rrg: What's he playing?
	👻 4:56pm rrg: What stringed instrument, I mean?
	👻 4:56pm Alison Porchnik: sounds like a mandolin or maybe even a dulcimer
	👻 4:57pm rrg: But a little different from both.
	4:57pm Caryn: Sounds like a kantele of some kind. Possibly a Scottish upright one.
	👻 4:58pm Alison Porchnik: It also sounds like a mechanical instrument.
	👻 4:58pm Alison Porchnik: It also sounds like a mechanical instrument.
	5:01pm Matt from Springfield: Scottish uptight twangtele.
	5:04pm hamburger: They should play more this kinda music in bars. Old timey!
	5:04pm hamburger: Twang Ahoy!
	5:07pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Brooke actually wasn't as Weird as I thot he'd be @ first from the Set-Up - w/ the talk about Freakshows & all - ! (...What we heard, @ least...) - It was pretty Formal - in its' way: - Country Music Collage - & Theatrical Elements. ...I'd like to stick him in a room w/ Tom Waits & a microphone & see if they get along & what happens...
	👻 5:08pm rrg: Wikipedia says Mike Marshall teaches mandolin online at the "School of Mandolin", so...maybe a mandolin.
	5:08pm Irwin: thanks to rrg for the harry
	5:08pm Matt from Springfield: Mandolins are certainly capable of twang.
	5:09pm Matt from Springfield: Irwin's audience, Shmilssoned AGAIN! Thanks rrg!
	5:10pm hamburger: Twangs are the raw deal!
	5:11pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...& I guess 'mash-up' not entirely off-base for some of it...would relate it to something else in its' time...
	5:15pm Matt from Springfield: "Collage" or perhaps "sequence" if it's more organized would be a better description for Nick Brooke.
	5:16pm Matt from Springfield: I thought that was Nina's song "Peeing Good"!!
	👻 5:17pm G: Sequester Who Cares is three words :P
	5:17pm Matt from Springfield: With ol' Uncle Sequester hanging over us, it makes us the United States of Addams Family!
	5:19pm Matt from Springfield: @G: "Three words, sequester, who cares, not me - FIVE! the FIVE words sequester, who cares, not me, man - SIX words!..."
	5:20pm I X Key!: Good morning! I just got back! Well, has this always been the bed music? STEVE REICH ROCKS & DOESN'T SUCK! & also, remind me when the marathon starts?
	5:20pm Matt from Springfield: It's WAY more than 6% better; the ONLY listener-sponsored station pledge drive I actually get excited for!
	👻 5:21pm G: @MfS: Somehow I suspect he could keep adding words indefinitely beyond six.
	5:22pm I X Key!: All the other radio in the world is 0% good, so you can't even compare WFMU's goodness to any of that
	5:22pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...One thing I think doesn't get noted enuff about the Modern / Post-Modern difference - is the Exponential Population Explosion : ...How many 1000's/Millions - / %-age of Overall Population - does it take to make something : - Folk Tradition (how many Folx - for How Long - ??) - a Classic (/'Classsical') - Pop (/Popular) - ???...
	👻 5:23pm rrg: 7" single? Somehow I'm managing to survive without a turntable.
	5:24pm Matt from Springfield: @G: But 24 is the highest number, right?
	5:24pm I X Key!: You should get more turntabled to survive better
	5:26pm Matt from Springfield: I table I X Key's recordlution! (In the Commonwealth sense, where you put a bill ON the table, as opposed to the US where we mean taking a bill OFF the table)
	👻 5:27pm rrg: I knew I knew "Shamrock Shore". Irish musicians play it a lot as "Paddy Green's Shamrock Shore". I have versions by The Chieftains and by The Green Fields of America.
	5:28pm I X Key!: I!m Irish
	👻 5:28pm rrg: If I had a turntable I'd just use it to immediately digitize any vinyl that came my way. Just like I do with analog video. What, you think I'm going to sit down and PLAY the damned things? How old do you think I am?
	5:29pm I X Key!: Springfield MA where it's a commonwealth
	5:30pm Matt from Springfield: What's a "trocious"?
	5:31pm Clark Barr: Maybe this poor kid would have had better luck with Ursula Andress...
	5:31pm I X Key!: Racism is atrocious
	5:32pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: In the modern age of much information, ability to record it and commercial release music, kids' playground rhymes repeated are the clearest example of folk or traditional music; no author, taught person to person with potential for modification, and well established as a performance song by the time it's recorded. Now a "folk singer" can compose their own songs in a "folk" style, but ultimately that style was derived from that series of "traditional" songs. The next question would be: how long does it take to accept a style of music as a "folk" one?
	👻 5:33pm rrg: Rufus Harley! That's why I listen. Thank you.
	5:33pm Matt from Springfield: @IX: You're a "from Springfield" too?! Awesome! I need to seek out the MA, MO, IL and other from Springfields in the comment boards. VA, is also a Commonwealth :)
	👻 5:34pm rrg: Hey, there's a Springfield in NJ too, y'know.
	5:34pm Clark Barr: Wow, blast from the past! Remember when Rufus was on I've Got A Secret and jammed with Steve Allen!
	5:34pm Matt from Springfield: W00t to this Pied Piper of Jazz!! I'm headin' to the bar and ordering a Scotch & Soulda! Thanks! (that means a jazz bagpiper needs to come out and play as I'm drinking it.)
	5:34pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: USAddams - ! Brilliant - ! - 'Uncle Sequester' - except Fester was kind of a Mad Genius - & the whole point of the Sequester was it was so STOO-PPED not even the Tea Party would go there - & them beetches shouldn't be able to use 'Tea Party' anyhow - because that was kinda a Kewl 18th Century thing we New Englanders feel rather proprietary about...
	5:35pm Matt from Springfield: @rrg: Do you know of any FMU listeners from there?
	5:36pm Clark Barr: Here's Rufus on I've Got A Secret: www.youtube.com...
	👻 5:36pm rrg: @Clark, that Rufus Harley clip from IGAS is on YouTube. I know because I put it there.
	5:37pm I X Key!: good on ya @rrg
	5:37pm Clark Barr: Props to you, rrg!
	5:38pm Carmichael: There's a Springsteen in New Jersey too, rrg.
	5:38pm I X Key!: Cheers @Matt
	5:39pm I X Key!: I'm from MA only
	👻 5:40pm rrg: Don't know any WFMU listeners in Springfield NJ, but I can tell you that the best Chinese restaurant in NJ is in Springfield.
	5:40pm I X Key!: & I have spent a substantial amount of my life in Springfield MA w/o having spent every night there--
	👻 5:42pm rrg: My YouTube "channel" has a few other musical things on it as well.
	5:42pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: Ironic too, as the Boston Tea Partiers were protesting the (British) Government, but they did by taking and destroying property of the private tea monopoly. Rather anti-business...
	5:42pm I X Key!: Hooray, Springfnield WFMU! Basketball Hall of Fame? What's up w/the Bldg. #19 there now?

Listener comments!
	👻 3:00pm rrg: Arf Noon!
	👻 3:00pm rrg: Irwin was actually a little early today.
	👻 3:05pm G: Yes, we are here :-) Sean Daily, I mean rrg, just makes us all look lethargic...
	3:06pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: LeeMorganMania - ! Frank Zappa - "Jazz isn't dead. It just smells funny."
	👻 3:06pm rrg: All right, all right. I'll get this Jenny O. album. You've convinced me.
	3:07pm Matt from Springfield: That Mr. Daily! Jenny-O-Mania, too!
	3:07pm Matt from Springfield: We're only going backwards, listening to this Tame Impala track over and over.
	3:09pm Caryn: Man, the rhythm of this Tame Impala is quite hypnotic... Never noticed before.
	👻 3:10pm rrg: Is this the song that those kids sang? I forget.
	3:10pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...On the outside chance that Posting the Stream Address for somewhere else isn't the greatest gauchest faux paux there could be : - Radio Free Americana : http://sc9.shoutcaststreaming.us:9526/ ...& if it in fact is - I got first dibbs - !...
	3:10pm Matt from Springfield: "I connected with Thomas by telephone in April 2012. He began the conversations with a plea for help, saying he was living with a demon inside him, a second personality he called “Erwin.” He wanted to learn how to control Erwin, how to stop the badness. Erwin, he said, was the rapist. Aaron, he said, was a good person, a family man, someone who helped the elderly and had love for everyone. “Erwin would show up, and things would happen in the middle of the night,” Thomas said. “He only comes around when I’m lonely.”"
	3:11pm Matt from Springfield: Irwin: Stopping The Badness Since 1975.
	3:11pm Barb: Irwin is master of the Earworm - I've had Jenny O. and Tame Impala in my head since last week's show!
	3:12pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Okay, Matt. You win.
	3:12pm Matt from Springfield: @rrg: Yes, it is the one the Brooklyn kids choir sang. @Barb: "Master of Earworms he's pulling your...um, ears?"
	3:12pm Caryn: That stream address reminds me, anyone hear that Samuel L. Jackson version of the Taylor Swift song?
	3:13pm steve: i love that Tam Impala song but fear how long it will be before it gets licensed and we hear it in a car commercial...
	3:14pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20120411-why-do-songs-stick-in-our-heads
	👻 3:15pm rrg: There's a waiting room?
	3:16pm Matt from Springfield: New Jersey Voter Initiative #5238-13-B: "Does DJ Duane rock a lot?", has passed 100% in favor, with 2 votes.
	3:16pm hamburger: nice Ken #Burns! :o)
	3:16pm Sam: Ken prefers to annoy rather than rock
	👻 3:16pm G: Ken must feel an affinity??
	3:17pm Matt from Springfield: @rrg: There's the Green Room. It's yours for a year for only $180! www.flickr.com...
	3:17pm Sam: I agree, Duane rocks 100%
	3:18pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Does he deliver the Taylor Swift w/ the Evangelical Conviction of his Pulp Fiction lines - ?!? - Mahogany Rush- ! ...Saw him in Boston few years ago - & it was KEWL people - !
	3:18pm Sugarfly Waterloo: I think I'll be aiming for an animated icon this marathon.
	3:18pm Matt from Springfield: Nice Mahogany Rush! @Caryn: I haven't--where did SLJ sing it, at an awards show, as a novelty MP3?
	👻 3:18pm AnAnonymousParty: Yay! Frank Marino!
	3:19pm steve: if we're still counting i also would vote in favor of "Duane rocks"
	👻 3:20pm rrg: Mahogany Rush? Now that's a phrase I haven't heard in a long time.
	3:21pm Caryn: @RRN63 & Matt: on another radio station, which is why I am resisting posting the link. Ah, what the hell: ondemandpopout.musicradio.com...
	👻 3:23pm rrg: RRN63 turns 50 this year. I'm guessing.
	3:24pm Marc: So Irwin, are you saying that Ken only plays music sung by Republicans?
	3:24pm Andy in Tucson: This sounds like Ray Davies.
	3:24pm Andy in Tucson: This sounds like Ray Davies.
	3:25pm Andy in Tucson: Or R Hitchcock.
	3:25pm Sugarfly Waterloo: that Mahogany Rush had a bit of Hendrix vibe to it.
	👻 3:26pm rrg: New talkover music?
	3:26pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: OhYahs Caryn!: This's gonna be GOOD... - It doesn't seem FMU stylee to get all Big Brother about the existence of other stuff out there - but I'm still pretty new here & not up to the Urban Etiquette of the Regal Jersyites 'n' stuff like that...
	👻 3:27pm rrg: Edited, well...
	👻 3:28pm G: Yeah, as in the comments are not edited.
	3:28pm Matt from Springfield: The PROF - is - the BOF!
	👻 3:28pm rrg: Ice cream and tea would be even better.
	3:29pm Caryn: @RRN63: I will also cover my tuchus by now stating that I believe everything else on that radio station is probably total crap, but as I never listen to them, but to WFMU, I wouldn't know. There, that should be better.
	3:29pm common: love the professor
	👻 3:29pm G: Cornetto, there's a word I haven't heard since I lived in the UK.
	3:29pm Matt from Springfield: Too much ice cream+tea can produce calcium oxide kidneystones. I remember that from an "ER" many years ago. To date, not sure how true that is...
	3:29pm Caryn: Yay, the prof is back!
	3:30pm Matt from Springfield: Yummy! I'll have a chocolate labrador, Professor!
	👻 3:30pm rrg: I'll risk it.
	3:31pm Jennique: I bought tickets to see Bow Wow Wow live this weekend in Brooklyn, only to later find out that Annabella will NOT be singing. I mean, what is the POINT? Feel cheated.
	3:31pm Droll: . o O ( I love a delicious double-scoop cone of horsemeat and salted caramel ice cream! )
	3:32pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...@ rrg: Hmmm - the Force is strong w/ this one... @ Sugarfly: If ya can find the infamous Lester Bangs thang about Mahogany Rush - ya should...altho' he's sorta wrong & Frank Marino is great go see him - ! Bangs trashed MC5 in his first article too - so go figure...
	3:32pm Caryn: I'll have a 99, prof! Just because I didn't have one while in the UK. (In reality, a banoffee ice cream would be better.)
	3:33pm Matt from Springfield: Salty sticky horsey!
	3:34pm Matt from Springfield: @Caryn: Interesting! In the US that would prob be like a Dulce de Leche/Toffee combo, something Ben & Jerry would make.
	3:35pm Listening Out There: ...typo in the playlist? Should it be "Liz Tunekill"?
	3:35pm Matt from Springfield: Avant-garde lyrics and super lo-fi electronica! Woohoo!
	3:35pm Listening Out There: ...nonetheless, I haven't heard anything else like it so far today...
	3:36pm Caryn: @Matt: yep, it's just an ice cream equivalent of banoffee pie. Every chain has their own version of it. My time in the UK was very coloured by Ben & Jerry's and banoffee pie ice cream.
	3:36pm Michael: Howdy Irwin and howdy fellow listeners.
	3:37pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: Kidney Stones are worth avoiding. Trust me on this. (...I am saying something of significance. You heard her.) ...Like giving birth to rocks thru the tube twixt yer kideny & bladder. - Esp. great if you have no freaking idea what's happening yet...
	3:37pm Caryn: Woohoo, the Ruts!
	3:37pm Matt from Springfield: @Caryn: Oooh! A 99 Flake, just heard of that, so I certainly will get one next time I'm in the UK! en.wikipedia.org... And hey - they have a "Monkey's Blood" variant! Perfect for the Prof!
	👻 3:38pm G: I see Michael's icon found Prof Elemental's pimped out van.
	👻 3:39pm rrg: Stereo!
	3:42pm Sem Chumbo: King Louie, Ho!
	3:42pm Matt from Springfield: King Louie's a nice crooner! And is there an INSTRO version of that backing track?!! PERFECT for bed music!
	3:43pm northguineahills: Don Ho not good enough?
	👻 3:44pm rrg: Oh, THIS I have to hear...
	3:45pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...No 'irony' in 'Surrey w/ the Fringe on Top' - ohhh nooo...
	👻 3:45pm rrg: Chicks and ducks and geese.
	3:45pm Matt from Springfield: Oh dear Lord, now this CPE! This would make PERFECT bed music as is! I'm suffering from choice bed music paralysis!!!! Yeah!!!!!!!
	👻 3:46pm rrg: Hey, I like this stuff. Don't you?
	3:46pm Matt from Springfield: YES! And now the classic "Tropical" bed! Love this one!
	👻 3:47pm rrg: Looks fine to me.
	👻 3:47pm G: Well, isn't that special :)
	3:48pm Caryn: @Matt: As I am neither a fan of the Flake (give me a Mint Aero any day) or soft-serve ice cream, I resisted it, but I kinda feel like it's such a cultural icon, I should have it one day (like how I felt I had to order a corned beef on rye once when in NY). Heck, my love of KLF alone makes me feel like I should have one one day.
	3:48pm Listening Out There: ...S'not much that Irwin knows about Liz T, eh?
	👻 3:49pm rrg: If we never say "91.1" on-air anymore, why do we have to say "91.9" for Rockland County?
	👻 3:50pm rrg: If I couldn't describe something, then I'd stumble through the interview too.
	3:51pm Caryn: @rrg: because it's still so new? Because they're really sensitive over there? Who knows.
	3:51pm Matt from Springfield: Another fine one from Steinberg, Inc.!
	3:53pm Caryn: Steinberg wrote this after his initial songs: "Where in the world is Carmen?" and "Oh, there you are, Carmen". He then followed this with "Sorry to wake you up, Carmen" and "Stop hitting me, Carmen!"
	3:53pm Matt from Springfield: @rrg: Because it's merely a repeater, the letters are something like W2XWP or something like that. I don't think we're required to announce those repeaters of other stations in FCC rules, but FMU probably does that to acknowledge our audience in Rockland County.
	3:54pm Matt from Springfield: Caryn, Don't Worry (repeat riff ad nauseum)
	3:55pm Listening Out There: ...fun program thus far. I'm enjoying it...
	3:56pm Droll: It's W220DQ New City, but as you note, as a MFU translator it's not required in the Legal Incantation. I think they just want to give fair warning to all the new victims. I mean fans -- New City fans.
	3:57pm Alison Porchnik: This is really nice reading-when-I-should-be-working four-o'clock-slump music. Please, sir, may we have another? (after the interview, of course).
	3:58pm Matt from Springfield: Poor guy in the rear, he's getting drafted.
	👻 3:59pm G: My grandmother bought this 45 for us kids when it came out. What she thought we were going to get out of it about politics I can't imagine. :)
	👻 3:59pm Alison Porchnik: frigging hippies, squares, and centrist freaks, all of em.
	3:59pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ..She plucked a banana outta her headress & gave it to him good ...then he told her Marilyn Monroe did a better job of 'Having a Heat Wave' - & it was all over... - Saw some thing someone was trying to get all Higbrow on Zappa - & he pointed out that 'Carmen' is all about a bigtime whore...
	4:00pm Matt from Springfield: "Warning, you're listening to a WFMU station!" W-Two Twenty-Dairy Queen, 91.9.
	👻 4:00pm G: OK, she was married to a federal administrative law judge, that must explain it.
	4:02pm Matt from Springfield: @G: It has a fun beat, chorus endings reminiscent of "talking blues", involves violence and a lesson on manners. The political "positions" would be too opaque, but I think it's a folk song suitable for kids.
	👻 4:02pm Alison Porchnik: Thanks, Irwin!
	4:02pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: Will no one play 'Chicken in Black' by Cash?
	👻 4:04pm G: She also got us "I Got Swallowed By a Boa Constrictor and I Don't Like Snakes One Bit." Any insight there?
	4:05pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Born in the (Todd Browning) USA....
	4:06pm Matt from Springfield: Warning, you're listening to Nick Brooke! Good afternoon from WFMU! >:)
	4:07pm Clark Barr: There is nothing wrong with your radio. Irwin is controlling transmission.
	4:08pm Matt from Springfield: @G: It would suggest she was a supporter of children's music, which was mainly that silly sort of folk at that time. Woody Guthrie is said to be the first to release an album of children's music, and as Bob Dylan points out, Leadbelly is one of the very few ex-cons to go on to release a successful children's album.
	👻 4:08pm rrg: And the horizontal and the vertical. And the Indian-head test pattern.
	4:09pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: @ mention of Freakshows (gabba gabba) : - Anybody know the book 'The Monster Show' by David J. Skal - ?
	4:11pm Droll: rrg, Yeah, I think that's the point: no matter where you set the dial or adjust the knobs, you receive all the messages (but not completely, and in no particular order). I like the collage.
	4:12pm Matt from Springfield: Yep, Nick Brooke now officially exists. en.wikipedia.org... But, no photo! Someone find one!
	4:13pm Gamelan Listener: Sigh, I give up...
	4:16pm paula pc: I needed this today...thank you both...
	👻 4:16pm rrg: Hey, Irwin really DID write that Wikipedia page.
	👻 4:17pm G: No stalking Irwin's wikipedia handle for all his edits, you creeps.
	👻 4:17pm G: :-)
	👻 4:18pm rrg: You'll never guess mine.
	👻 4:19pm G: "quadra" and "tetra" are four in Latin and Greek. logy is from Greek. it should be tetra
	4:19pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...I find the parallels & connections between 'Monster Culture' (Horror & SciFi Genres) - & Rock'n'Roll/CounterCulture pretty illuminating...but then I would, wouldn't I... - Charles Ives, Harry Partch, John Cage, Harry Smith, Dylan are all coming to mind... - Maybe this is Contempo. (?) American Gamelon...
	👻 4:19pm G: rrg, possibly :P
	4:20pm Caryn: @RRN63: while I don't agree with all of Skal's conclusions, it is a good book.
	👻 4:21pm Alison Porchnik: RRN63 - there are also some interesting connections between rock n' roll and alien/UFO enthusiast culture.
	4:22pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Tom Waits ...now he mentions Theatre, why not invoke Artaud & what he said about Sound... - Paraphrase Phillip Glass: ...'It sounds really obvious - but if you're not coming up w/ New Technique - you probably don't have anything New to Say - !'...
	4:23pm paula pc: this is WONDERFUL
	👻 4:23pm rrg: It's too hard to add a photo to a Wikipedia article. Maybe later.
	👻 4:24pm rrg: This reminds me a lot of early Mothers albums.
	👻 4:25pm G: you gotta own the image, have permission, fair use, etc. You can't just copy any picture into wikipedia the you can find on the interwebz. Not everyone wants their picture there, either. Wikipedia has lots of BLP (Bio of Living Person) regs.
	4:29pm paula pc: his website has pic for nick brooke - can we buy this recording somewhere - I can't find a way but I didn't try too hard yet I admi
	4:29pm Irwin: label: Innova.mu
	4:30pm paula pc: whoops he ain't there no more (2/14) -- THANKS Irwin!!!!!
	4:30pm Irwin: rrg: interesting comparison. It is sorta Lumpy Gravyish.
	4:31pm Droll: G, It so happens I've been studying intellectual property rights as they pertain to The Internets, please allow me clarify: If the IP belongs to a musician, do as thou wilt. Otherwise the local national laws apply and are strictly enforced.
	4:31pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: - @ rrg: Yeah! Mothers...I think it took Zappa some time & trouble to find his PLace twixt High & Lowbrow & make sense of it all - John Lennon: ...'before Rock'n'Roll - there were Cowboys w/ guitars!' ...I've read a couple of books about the History of the Guitar recently - & it's interesting stuff alright... - @ Caryn: - Makes sense about Skal - but I haven't encountered another that nails 'Monster Culture' like that yet...
	4:32pm Irwin: www.amazon.com...
	4:32pm paula pc: you even hyper-linked the album cover -- duh on my part. THANKS, Irwin!!
	4:32pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: And as Malcolm McLaren said, before Rock 'n Roll there was square dancing, and its associated moral panic!
	4:34pm Jack DeRider: Whatever the hell "deconstruction" means...
	4:36pm paula pc: well jack I'm totally with you...but I like the way this sounds in and of itself...but have been thinking a lot about the post-mo vs. mo part
	4:37pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Even Lennon was like this on 'I Am the Walrus' & certainly Revolution 9 - & literally 'played the radio' on 'Two Virgins' @ least as rhythm ...It's 'collage' seems to me - that's all - ! 'Mash-up' is new argot not needed here...
	👻 4:38pm G: @Droll: Whatever possessed you to study something so dry as IP law :P
	4:39pm paula pc: well there's love in here and not condescension...I think that comes thru in the collage and the way the singers interact with it...you agree Irwin or am I naive or do you not care
	👻 4:40pm rrg: Because TCP and IP are the only law that matters.
	👻 4:41pm rrg: I don't think Irwin ever plays things that he doesn't care about in one way or another.
	4:42pm Irwin: rrg: Which is why no Cat Stevens, Ella F, or Tuvan throat singing.
	4:42pm Droll: I like the music, but I'm completely floored by the composer -- I think I prefer listening to him speak about the methods and intentions more than listening to the end results. This certainly qualifies as "Concept Album", but not the traditional kind. G, I didn't choose IP, it chose me. Apparently I am the only person on your planet who thinks musicians suffer most from theft, not lack of opportunity.
	4:42pm paula pc: @ rrg - yep I mean the question of how much condescension figures into this project
	4:43pm paula pc: but I think what they are talking about now covers it
	4:43pm Irwin: Gawd, I played Cat Stevens in 2003.
	4:44pm paula pc: @ droll -- I initially thought NO on this guy but I'm 100% won over...and what he and Irwin are saying right now is spot-on
	👻 4:45pm rrg: I know that song.
	4:45pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: What's happening Now w/ the whole 'Americana' Genre is very intertesting to me ...I see it as almost a Political thing of reclaiming Country from all the people Johnny Cash might have been giving the finger to - certainly by the time he was working for Rick Rubin on American... ...A lot of this is like what Cage said about 'audition' - which means literally the Act of Listening...
	4:47pm Matt from Springfield: Likewise, I also like listening to Nick's discussions and musical concepts, moreso than the final product. Thanks Nick for coming in! Thanks to Irwin and WFMU!
	4:50pm Caryn: Yep, the interview bits have been fascinating. Nice booking, Irwin!
	4:50pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: All those terms are probably popularized as the result of micro-marketing. "Americana", like you said, is probably aimed at those outside the social/political core of modern country, playing a kind of country/folk rock that is acceptable for AAA station play, yet not really staying in any one genre.
	4:53pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...I think the 'Post-Modern Question' definitely is relevant in terms of what is 'Folk' (Barbara Allen? Dylan?) 'Classical' (Stockhausen? Eleanor Rigby?) or 'Pop' (Teenage Fanclub? Justin Beiber?) anymore anyhow... - We forget that Mozart was a syphilitic improvising party-animal in his own time... - yeah, Cage: It's about Context. ...Ferinstance: It ticks me off that people still believe Rockfans are dumb & ill-informed in face of all the evidence...We are in fact the Gnostics (the Knowers) - !...
	👻 4:55pm rrg: What's he playing?
	👻 4:56pm rrg: What stringed instrument, I mean?
	👻 4:56pm Alison Porchnik: sounds like a mandolin or maybe even a dulcimer
	👻 4:57pm rrg: But a little different from both.
	4:57pm Caryn: Sounds like a kantele of some kind. Possibly a Scottish upright one.
	👻 4:58pm Alison Porchnik: It also sounds like a mechanical instrument.
	👻 4:58pm Alison Porchnik: It also sounds like a mechanical instrument.
	5:01pm Matt from Springfield: Scottish uptight twangtele.
	5:04pm hamburger: They should play more this kinda music in bars. Old timey!
	5:04pm hamburger: Twang Ahoy!
	5:07pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Brooke actually wasn't as Weird as I thot he'd be @ first from the Set-Up - w/ the talk about Freakshows & all - ! (...What we heard, @ least...) - It was pretty Formal - in its' way: - Country Music Collage - & Theatrical Elements. ...I'd like to stick him in a room w/ Tom Waits & a microphone & see if they get along & what happens...
	👻 5:08pm rrg: Wikipedia says Mike Marshall teaches mandolin online at the "School of Mandolin", so...maybe a mandolin.
	5:08pm Irwin: thanks to rrg for the harry
	5:08pm Matt from Springfield: Mandolins are certainly capable of twang.
	5:09pm Matt from Springfield: Irwin's audience, Shmilssoned AGAIN! Thanks rrg!
	5:10pm hamburger: Twangs are the raw deal!
	5:11pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...& I guess 'mash-up' not entirely off-base for some of it...would relate it to something else in its' time...
	5:15pm Matt from Springfield: "Collage" or perhaps "sequence" if it's more organized would be a better description for Nick Brooke.
	5:16pm Matt from Springfield: I thought that was Nina's song "Peeing Good"!!
	👻 5:17pm G: Sequester Who Cares is three words :P
	5:17pm Matt from Springfield: With ol' Uncle Sequester hanging over us, it makes us the United States of Addams Family!
	5:19pm Matt from Springfield: @G: "Three words, sequester, who cares, not me - FIVE! the FIVE words sequester, who cares, not me, man - SIX words!..."
	5:20pm I X Key!: Good morning! I just got back! Well, has this always been the bed music? STEVE REICH ROCKS & DOESN'T SUCK! & also, remind me when the marathon starts?
	5:20pm Matt from Springfield: It's WAY more than 6% better; the ONLY listener-sponsored station pledge drive I actually get excited for!
	👻 5:21pm G: @MfS: Somehow I suspect he could keep adding words indefinitely beyond six.
	5:22pm I X Key!: All the other radio in the world is 0% good, so you can't even compare WFMU's goodness to any of that
	5:22pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...One thing I think doesn't get noted enuff about the Modern / Post-Modern difference - is the Exponential Population Explosion : ...How many 1000's/Millions - / %-age of Overall Population - does it take to make something : - Folk Tradition (how many Folx - for How Long - ??) - a Classic (/'Classsical') - Pop (/Popular) - ???...
	👻 5:23pm rrg: 7" single? Somehow I'm managing to survive without a turntable.
	5:24pm Matt from Springfield: @G: But 24 is the highest number, right?
	5:24pm I X Key!: You should get more turntabled to survive better
	5:26pm Matt from Springfield: I table I X Key's recordlution! (In the Commonwealth sense, where you put a bill ON the table, as opposed to the US where we mean taking a bill OFF the table)
	👻 5:27pm rrg: I knew I knew "Shamrock Shore". Irish musicians play it a lot as "Paddy Green's Shamrock Shore". I have versions by The Chieftains and by The Green Fields of America.
	5:28pm I X Key!: I!m Irish
	👻 5:28pm rrg: If I had a turntable I'd just use it to immediately digitize any vinyl that came my way. Just like I do with analog video. What, you think I'm going to sit down and PLAY the damned things? How old do you think I am?
	5:29pm I X Key!: Springfield MA where it's a commonwealth
	5:30pm Matt from Springfield: What's a "trocious"?
	5:31pm Clark Barr: Maybe this poor kid would have had better luck with Ursula Andress...
	5:31pm I X Key!: Racism is atrocious
	5:32pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: In the modern age of much information, ability to record it and commercial release music, kids' playground rhymes repeated are the clearest example of folk or traditional music; no author, taught person to person with potential for modification, and well established as a performance song by the time it's recorded. Now a "folk singer" can compose their own songs in a "folk" style, but ultimately that style was derived from that series of "traditional" songs. The next question would be: how long does it take to accept a style of music as a "folk" one?
	👻 5:33pm rrg: Rufus Harley! That's why I listen. Thank you.
	5:33pm Matt from Springfield: @IX: You're a "from Springfield" too?! Awesome! I need to seek out the MA, MO, IL and other from Springfields in the comment boards. VA, is also a Commonwealth :)
	👻 5:34pm rrg: Hey, there's a Springfield in NJ too, y'know.
	5:34pm Clark Barr: Wow, blast from the past! Remember when Rufus was on I've Got A Secret and jammed with Steve Allen!
	5:34pm Matt from Springfield: W00t to this Pied Piper of Jazz!! I'm headin' to the bar and ordering a Scotch & Soulda! Thanks! (that means a jazz bagpiper needs to come out and play as I'm drinking it.)
	5:34pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: USAddams - ! Brilliant - ! - 'Uncle Sequester' - except Fester was kind of a Mad Genius - & the whole point of the Sequester was it was so STOO-PPED not even the Tea Party would go there - & them beetches shouldn't be able to use 'Tea Party' anyhow - because that was kinda a Kewl 18th Century thing we New Englanders feel rather proprietary about...
	5:35pm Matt from Springfield: @rrg: Do you know of any FMU listeners from there?
	5:36pm Clark Barr: Here's Rufus on I've Got A Secret: www.youtube.com...
	👻 5:36pm rrg: @Clark, that Rufus Harley clip from IGAS is on YouTube. I know because I put it there.
	5:37pm I X Key!: good on ya @rrg
	5:37pm Clark Barr: Props to you, rrg!
	5:38pm Carmichael: There's a Springsteen in New Jersey too, rrg.
	5:38pm I X Key!: Cheers @Matt
	5:39pm I X Key!: I'm from MA only
	👻 5:40pm rrg: Don't know any WFMU listeners in Springfield NJ, but I can tell you that the best Chinese restaurant in NJ is in Springfield.
	5:40pm I X Key!: & I have spent a substantial amount of my life in Springfield MA w/o having spent every night there--
	👻 5:42pm rrg: My YouTube "channel" has a few other musical things on it as well.
	5:42pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: Ironic too, as the Boston Tea Partiers were protesting the (British) Government, but they did by taking and destroying property of the private tea monopoly. Rather anti-business...
	5:42pm I X Key!: Hooray, Springfnield WFMU! Basketball Hall of Fame? What's up w/the Bldg. #19 there now?
	5:43pm Matt from Springfield: Art Blakey & The Jazz Vacuumers! Helping you clean your studio or listening space, in style!
	5:44pm I X Key!: How do I get to yr "channel" @rrg
	5:45pm RevolutionRabbitNov63: Yer Home for BadassBagpipeJazz - Man!: ...Having WinAmp for Noise (...'in the Attic'...) - & 3 frames in the Window (Playlist, Comment, Comment Posting) - sure slows my ancient handcranked PC down ...buu I appear to be happy to throw my days off from work into that timesink vortex... - Have I ever mentioned not being fond of Mercury Retrograde - ??...
	👻 5:47pm rrg: Should be a link underneath the title on the Rufus Harley video page...
	5:50pm I X Key!: What do you thing of the Springfield MA Bldg. #19
	5:55pm Listening Out There: I think Conlon Nancarrow would have liked "Outlier"
	👻 5:55pm rrg: I would like an album of Music Box music. And I'm sure one of you fine people can tell me where to find one.
	👻 5:56pm rrg: But hurry! The show's almost over!
	5:58pm Matt from Springfield: Pleasant ending with these New-fangled music box sounds! And...still pleasant with Amor de Días! Thanks for the great show and interview Irwin! Have a great ending everyone!
	5:58pm Droll: rrg, This sounds like kalimba, which might make a good substitute. Frank Mills, maybe?
	👻 5:58pm rrg: All right, show's over. Tonight I dine alone, on poached eggs and chocolate cake. Not that I'm complaining. Catch youse all later.
	6:00pm Matt from Springfield: Poach and cake away, rrg!
