	4:08pm Hi from Holland: its glorious
	4:08pm John in Bklyn: It sounds like an 80s TV show theme.
	4:09pm doug: The way he sustains those tones makes me think he's on a treadmill
	4:09pm coelacanth∅: not much worse than "space lady" (or whatever she calls herself) and she got played fairly heavily for a few challenging months last year.
	👻 4:10pm chris: yay, Irwin. responsible party(ies) please come forward to claim the acclaim.
	4:10pm zopa: Mr. Chusid, YOU are the best thing in the world!
	4:10pm coelacanth∅: well, it is better than heavy metal (takin a ride), but i'm still nt clicky-starring it.
	4:11pm Irwin: Such a treat. So catchy. And followed by Hatchie.
	👻 4:11pm chris: but it seems so sincere, coel.
	4:12pm Irwin: That was the high point of the program. You can all change the station now.
	4:12pm coelacanth∅: fleep hahaha! - or just rockin' out to it in washington square park on a scary evening.
	👻 4:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: That should be a single along with "Can I Borrow a Feeling?"
	4:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Clearly Executive material...now - about last week's topic...
	4:13pm Irwin: Tho I do have several other interesting tracks from that demo compilation cued up.
	4:13pm John in Bklyn: Mmm... Cocteau-y
	4:14pm Honeybear: these two songs are almost exactly the same
	4:14pm John in Bklyn: Please play Hot In The Airport!
	4:14pm zpulpa: I am charmed by The Space Lady!
	4:15pm Ike: @coelacanth∅, my thoughts exactly.
	4:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yay for SpaceLady.
	4:16pm John in Bklyn: Rational Funk
	4:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: [...notes in CIA diary: Bring up the SpaceLady...] Nice John.
	4:18pm Fredericks: Ligeti interpreted by The Bad Plus! That's why I listen to this show whenever I can.
	4:20pm Irwin: How is "Ligeti" pronounced?
	👻 4:21pm Alison Porchnik: L /short i/ get/ ee, accent on Li and ee
	4:22pm John in Bklyn: I remember this tune from URGH! A Music War. I can't believe I never knew it was a cover.
	4:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: /ˈlɪɡəti/; Hungarian: Ligeti György Sándor, pronounced [ˈliɡɛti ˈɟørɟ ˈʃaːndor ...I mean - obviously...
	4:23pm Jeff Moore: Yes, does someone here know authoritatively? I've always said LEE-ge-TEE
	4:24pm Irwin: I've heard LIG-uh-tee.
	4:24pm ɨkɛ: Irwin, any chance I could bribe you to find that Heavy Metal soundtrack and run your bicycle over it, or get your cat to chew on it? If it's destroyed, Matt will probably just find an MP3 of that moronic song, so maybe you could just add some severe scratches. I would never advocate such an immoral thing under normal circumstances, but Matt has driven us insane with that blockheaded POS song every week. Don Felder is the Antichrist.
	4:25pm John in Bklyn: The upside down lowercase f is really difficult to pronounce.
	4:25pm Jeff Moore: Oh, Ike. Can't you find something else to think about?
	👻 4:26pm Alison Porchnik: Irwin your pronunciation is correct.
	4:26pm John in Bklyn: I've heard LIG-eh-tee, too.
	4:27pm coelacanth∅: this reminds me a tiny bit of klaatu
	4:27pm John in Bklyn: In grade school we used to call him Ligeti Spaghetti. But you know how cruel kids can be.
	4:27pm Irwin: Ike, did "Best Thing in the World" alleviate your existential pain in any small way?
	4:27pm Jeff Moore: Like LIG-eh-tee doo dah, LIG-eh-tee yay?
	4:28pm coelacanth∅: haha Jeff!
	4:30pm coelacanth∅: (why does that crack me up? -i guess because i immediately started singing it!)
	4:30pm Jeff Moore: Ha! Welcome to my world!
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Joe Doc. So kewl.
	4:32pm Michael 98145: will there be a GoFundMe for the Monty Hall mop-up ?
	4:32pm ɨkɛ: @Jeff Moore@4:25, even if you've learned nothing else about me, you should at least have observed that I'm characterized by a significant amount of monomania. I sometimes regard that as a feature, not a bug. Though perhaps not at the moment. @Irwin, nope!
	4:34pm adampsyche: wwwwwhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaattttttt
	4:35pm Jeff Moore: @Ike: I have learned that. I should not have presumed to try to fetter your obsession. Fly, fly, be free!
	4:35pm The Oscar: Been busy working, but this is GLORIOUS.
	4:35pm prudy: this is profound
	4:35pm queems: this is glorious
	4:35pm zpulpa: Already a fan! wow, I love this
	4:35pm Travisano66: I used to sing like this to torture my sister.
	4:35pm queems: @the oscar jinx
	4:36pm fleep: again, have stopped all activity to experience this
	4:36pm Lil Dwyane: a good song is a good song doesn't matter who sings it
	4:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...they have to be in on the joke that this is...don't they??...
	4:36pm The Oscar: @queems It's absolutely the correct adjective.
	4:36pm queems: can you imagine the people driving in their cars accidentally tuning into this
	4:37pm Asheville Jon: this is so much better than the original!
	4:37pm queems: shock and awe
	4:37pm Irwin: Dwyane: Amen.
	4:37pm Fox: That's right! David Cross did the whole skit with Joe Frank about being OJ Simpson's ambiguously gay companion. I'm so excited to see the film.
	4:37pm Michael 98145: @queems, that OFTEN occurs to me, too.
	4:37pm John in Bklyn: He should be the musical guest on SNL, like NOW! Get him an 8 x 10 glossy of Pope Frankie and we're all set.
	4:37pm ɛɨk: @Jeff Moore, IDK, I'd like to get away from myself for just a little while. Everywhere I go, there I am! Sheesh! What a racket.
	4:37pm zpulpa: @Revolution Rabbit Nov63, do you know something we don't?
	4:38pm queems: @michael SAME. like all the time. but this one is extra special
	4:38pm John in Bklyn: He's a melismatic master, too!
	4:38pm adampsyche: this is how i first heard shittyflute, long drive back from upstate, pissed off at traffic, finally got into WFMU range, and my wife and i lost our shit at the consecutive shittiness
	4:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...but it'as still so...so...
	4:40pm The Oscar: I'd love to talk to anyone who accidentally tuned into Brian Turner's Kars-4-Kids "live set" while driving.
	4:41pm Languorous Lass: Irwin! Haven't signed in to comment in eons. But you're bringing me such joy today that I had to!
	4:42pm Irwin: Share the joy!
	4:42pm John in Bklyn: @The Oscar: Wow, do you know when that occurred? Did they sing that song from the commercial??
	4:42pm Itzall Ablurr: Favorite Riptones lyric; "the first time that he drops it, his wife will make him sell it". Hah!
	4:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Saw EddieHarris SHAME a local pick-up rhythm section by telling them to sit out - & just clacking the keys on his sax better than they played.
	👻 4:45pm Listening Out There: Pickup bands and Republicans...oi...
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& he passed away not too much after that...
	4:46pm The Oscar: @John Kiiiiiiind of... (the "set" starts at 1:08) wfmu.org...
	4:46pm John in Bklyn: Eddie started doing like half stand up/half music records after a while.
	4:47pm John in Bklyn: @The Oscar: Thanks! I'll check it. At my own peril.
	4:47pm panurge: hi irwin and everyone
	4:49pm Mike tp: good bloom
	4:55pm Irwin: John: check this out: www.allmusic.com...

	4:57pm Bill W: happy Kovacs Centennial, everyone.
	4:57pm Fredericks: RIGHT!
	4:59pm John in Bklyn: Ha! Thanks Irwin! I think I heard the bit where he's annoyed that the club management asked him to mention the NEXT band that will be appearing there!
	5:00pm common: Good eve.
	5:00pm Irwin: Gotta get that Eddie Harris talkin' shit album.
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ernest Edward Kovacs January 23, 1919 – January 13, 1962 Huh - '62...
	5:03pm The Oscar: I think TCM is showing a bunch of Kovacs shows and movies tonight, FYI. One of my many heroes as a teenager that makes me sound a good 50 years older than I am.
	5:05pm John in Bklyn: @The Oscar: I remember seeing some Kovacs as a teen in the late 70s and thinking that it was from another planet. I thought Monty Python was "out."
	5:06pm Michael 98145: { Solfeggio : www.youtube.com... }
	👻 5:07pm Listening Out There: Guess if we were going to hear the Nairobi Trio theme on the program, today would be the day, eh?
	👻 5:08pm Listening Out There: ...which is "Solfeggio"! Thank you, Mr. Michael Sir...
	5:08pm The Oscar: I had a set of VHS tapes my dad gave me for Christmas in the late '90s which I watched over and over. I like to imagine someone in the '50s turning on their very first television set and seeing plucked chicken marionettes dancing to Esquivel.
	5:09pm paulshrug: Dori Freeman track is gorgeous
	5:10pm paulshrug: I meant the Deke Leonard track, that's gorgeous. But so is the Dori Freeman track. Equal in gorgeousness.

	4:08pm Itzall Ablurr: Bad? Mais non. Compared to?... Love it.
	4:08pm Hi from Holland: its glorious
	4:08pm John in Bklyn: It sounds like an 80s TV show theme.
	4:09pm doug: The way he sustains those tones makes me think he's on a treadmill
	4:09pm coelacanth∅: not much worse than "space lady" (or whatever she calls herself) and she got played fairly heavily for a few challenging months last year.
	👻 4:10pm chris: yay, Irwin. responsible party(ies) please come forward to claim the acclaim.
	4:10pm zopa: Mr. Chusid, YOU are the best thing in the world!
	4:10pm coelacanth∅: well, it is better than heavy metal (takin a ride), but i'm still nt clicky-starring it.
	4:11pm Irwin: Such a treat. So catchy. And followed by Hatchie.
	👻 4:11pm chris: but it seems so sincere, coel.
	4:12pm Irwin: That was the high point of the program. You can all change the station now.
	4:12pm coelacanth∅: fleep hahaha! - or just rockin' out to it in washington square park on a scary evening.
	👻 4:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: That should be a single along with "Can I Borrow a Feeling?"
	4:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Clearly Executive material...now - about last week's topic...
	4:13pm Irwin: Tho I do have several other interesting tracks from that demo compilation cued up.
	4:13pm John in Bklyn: Mmm... Cocteau-y
	4:14pm Honeybear: these two songs are almost exactly the same
	4:14pm John in Bklyn: Please play Hot In The Airport!
	4:14pm zpulpa: I am charmed by The Space Lady!
	4:15pm Ike: @coelacanth∅, my thoughts exactly.
	4:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yay for SpaceLady.
	4:16pm John in Bklyn: Rational Funk
	4:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: [...notes in CIA diary: Bring up the SpaceLady...] Nice John.
	4:18pm Fredericks: Ligeti interpreted by The Bad Plus! That's why I listen to this show whenever I can.
	4:20pm Irwin: How is "Ligeti" pronounced?
	👻 4:21pm Alison Porchnik: L /short i/ get/ ee, accent on Li and ee
	4:22pm John in Bklyn: I remember this tune from URGH! A Music War. I can't believe I never knew it was a cover.
	4:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: /ˈlɪɡəti/; Hungarian: Ligeti György Sándor, pronounced [ˈliɡɛti ˈɟørɟ ˈʃaːndor ...I mean - obviously...
	4:23pm Jeff Moore: Yes, does someone here know authoritatively? I've always said LEE-ge-TEE
	4:24pm Irwin: I've heard LIG-uh-tee.
	4:24pm ɨkɛ: Irwin, any chance I could bribe you to find that Heavy Metal soundtrack and run your bicycle over it, or get your cat to chew on it? If it's destroyed, Matt will probably just find an MP3 of that moronic song, so maybe you could just add some severe scratches. I would never advocate such an immoral thing under normal circumstances, but Matt has driven us insane with that blockheaded POS song every week. Don Felder is the Antichrist.
	4:25pm John in Bklyn: The upside down lowercase f is really difficult to pronounce.
	4:25pm Jeff Moore: Oh, Ike. Can't you find something else to think about?
	👻 4:26pm Alison Porchnik: Irwin your pronunciation is correct.
	4:26pm John in Bklyn: I've heard LIG-eh-tee, too.
	4:27pm coelacanth∅: this reminds me a tiny bit of klaatu
	4:27pm John in Bklyn: In grade school we used to call him Ligeti Spaghetti. But you know how cruel kids can be.
	4:27pm Irwin: Ike, did "Best Thing in the World" alleviate your existential pain in any small way?
	4:27pm Jeff Moore: Like LIG-eh-tee doo dah, LIG-eh-tee yay?
	4:28pm coelacanth∅: haha Jeff!
	4:30pm coelacanth∅: (why does that crack me up? -i guess because i immediately started singing it!)
	4:30pm Jeff Moore: Ha! Welcome to my world!
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Joe Doc. So kewl.
	4:32pm Michael 98145: will there be a GoFundMe for the Monty Hall mop-up ?
	4:32pm ɨkɛ: @Jeff Moore@4:25, even if you've learned nothing else about me, you should at least have observed that I'm characterized by a significant amount of monomania. I sometimes regard that as a feature, not a bug. Though perhaps not at the moment. @Irwin, nope!
	4:34pm adampsyche: wwwwwhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaattttttt
	4:35pm Jeff Moore: @Ike: I have learned that. I should not have presumed to try to fetter your obsession. Fly, fly, be free!
	4:35pm The Oscar: Been busy working, but this is GLORIOUS.
	4:35pm prudy: this is profound
	4:35pm queems: this is glorious
	4:35pm zpulpa: Already a fan! wow, I love this
	4:35pm Travisano66: I used to sing like this to torture my sister.
	4:35pm queems: @the oscar jinx
	4:36pm fleep: again, have stopped all activity to experience this
	4:36pm Lil Dwyane: a good song is a good song doesn't matter who sings it
	4:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...they have to be in on the joke that this is...don't they??...
	4:36pm The Oscar: @queems It's absolutely the correct adjective.
	4:36pm queems: can you imagine the people driving in their cars accidentally tuning into this
	4:37pm Asheville Jon: this is so much better than the original!
	4:37pm queems: shock and awe
	4:37pm Irwin: Dwyane: Amen.
	4:37pm Fox: That's right! David Cross did the whole skit with Joe Frank about being OJ Simpson's ambiguously gay companion. I'm so excited to see the film.
	4:37pm Michael 98145: @queems, that OFTEN occurs to me, too.
	4:37pm John in Bklyn: He should be the musical guest on SNL, like NOW! Get him an 8 x 10 glossy of Pope Frankie and we're all set.
	4:37pm ɛɨk: @Jeff Moore, IDK, I'd like to get away from myself for just a little while. Everywhere I go, there I am! Sheesh! What a racket.
	4:37pm zpulpa: @Revolution Rabbit Nov63, do you know something we don't?
	4:38pm queems: @michael SAME. like all the time. but this one is extra special
	4:38pm John in Bklyn: He's a melismatic master, too!
	4:38pm adampsyche: this is how i first heard shittyflute, long drive back from upstate, pissed off at traffic, finally got into WFMU range, and my wife and i lost our shit at the consecutive shittiness
	4:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...but it'as still so...so...
	4:40pm The Oscar: I'd love to talk to anyone who accidentally tuned into Brian Turner's Kars-4-Kids "live set" while driving.
	4:41pm Languorous Lass: Irwin! Haven't signed in to comment in eons. But you're bringing me such joy today that I had to!
	4:42pm Irwin: Share the joy!
	4:42pm John in Bklyn: @The Oscar: Wow, do you know when that occurred? Did they sing that song from the commercial??
	4:42pm Itzall Ablurr: Favorite Riptones lyric; "the first time that he drops it, his wife will make him sell it". Hah!
	4:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Saw EddieHarris SHAME a local pick-up rhythm section by telling them to sit out - & just clacking the keys on his sax better than they played.
	👻 4:45pm Listening Out There: Pickup bands and Republicans...oi...
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& he passed away not too much after that...
	4:46pm The Oscar: @John Kiiiiiiind of... (the "set" starts at 1:08) wfmu.org...
	4:46pm John in Bklyn: Eddie started doing like half stand up/half music records after a while.
	4:47pm John in Bklyn: @The Oscar: Thanks! I'll check it. At my own peril.
	4:47pm panurge: hi irwin and everyone
	4:49pm Mike tp: good bloom

	4:57pm Bill W: happy Kovacs Centennial, everyone.
	4:57pm Fredericks: RIGHT!
	4:59pm John in Bklyn: Ha! Thanks Irwin! I think I heard the bit where he's annoyed that the club management asked him to mention the NEXT band that will be appearing there!
	5:00pm common: Good eve.
	5:00pm Irwin: Gotta get that Eddie Harris talkin' shit album.
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ernest Edward Kovacs January 23, 1919 – January 13, 1962 Huh - '62...
	5:03pm The Oscar: I think TCM is showing a bunch of Kovacs shows and movies tonight, FYI. One of my many heroes as a teenager that makes me sound a good 50 years older than I am.
	5:05pm John in Bklyn: @The Oscar: I remember seeing some Kovacs as a teen in the late 70s and thinking that it was from another planet. I thought Monty Python was "out."
	5:06pm Michael 98145: { Solfeggio : www.youtube.com... }
	👻 5:07pm Listening Out There: Guess if we were going to hear the Nairobi Trio theme on the program, today would be the day, eh?
	👻 5:08pm Listening Out There: ...which is "Solfeggio"! Thank you, Mr. Michael Sir...
	5:08pm The Oscar: I had a set of VHS tapes my dad gave me for Christmas in the late '90s which I watched over and over. I like to imagine someone in the '50s turning on their very first television set and seeing plucked chicken marionettes dancing to Esquivel.
	5:09pm paulshrug: Dori Freeman track is gorgeous
	5:10pm paulshrug: I meant the Deke Leonard track, that's gorgeous. But so is the Dori Freeman track. Equal in gorgeousness.
