Listener comments!
	🥁 11:48am Sean in Bristol UK: Good afternoon, Irene, hello one and all
	11:58am Irene Trudel: Welcome Sean! Happy afternoon to you too!
	12:01pm Really Lisa: Hello Irene and everyone. Glad to have this soundtrack to Monday afternoon.
	12:03pm Irene Trudel: Welcome Lisa! Happy to provide it.
	12:03pm Malcolm: Hi Irene and everyone
	12:09pm Irene Trudel: Hi Malcolm!
	🥁 12:12pm Sean in Bristol UK: Can I share a little bit of deep despair, absolutely minor with what is going on but an artist close to our heart, Irene, had a new album pencilled in for a release last Friday. Steven Wilson has now delayed that until next January. A minor, minor problem I know but \| was so looking forward, a new album from this maestro is an event.
	12:12pm Alan Cynics: Found you no problem today.....lovely start :)
	12:15pm Irene Trudel: Aww, that is a shame Sean. As you know I'm also a big fan. Everything these days is on a big delay, so we'll just have to be patient!
	12:16pm doctorjazz: Hi Irene and all.
	12:17pm Irene Trudel: Ah, that's great Alan! I'll try to make it plain each time I post about a new show. Glad you're able to join us all. And 'hi" doctorjazz!
	🥁 12:18pm Sean in Bristol UK: My home town had a piece in today's NY Times, we are under the spotlight but glad that the city is waking up to the sordid past
	🥁 12:20pm Brian in UK: Hello Irene and gentle folks. Sean, people have been trying for years to get Colston's statue removed?
	12:28pm gongoleer: Hello from Vermont to Irene & everyone. Running a bit late and almost forgot to log in. Hope your days run well all week. It's crazy out there.
	12:29pm Irene Trudel: Sean I haven't read it but will later (presumably about the statue dumped into the river). And hello to you, Brian and gongoleer! Trying to keep sane through the music.
	12:30pm alanr: And another shoutout from my temporary exile in Mexico City (until the end of June). Can't live without you!
	12:31pm Irene Trudel: Hey alanr! How are things in Mexico City? Hope you're keeping well.
	12:33pm alanr: Nice vibe here. For while, it was the safer option than returning to Brooklyn! Now one must be more careful. My second home. Wonderful cultural world here. Thanks for asking!
	12:34pm Dean: This Lang and Basho remind me of a show I attended in the late '80s or early '90s at Covina's Fret House featuring a 12-string picker who was something of a Kottke acolyte. Just can't remember his name!
	12:35pm alanr: The peak of contagion is now and probably into early July here!!!
	12:35pm gongoleer: And speaking of Basho, Lang & Kottke lest we not forget Bykoff. @alanr maybe that's who you mean.
	🥁 12:38pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Hi Irene, WFMU folx—thanks for your contributions to my sanity.<3
	12:46pm Irene Trudel: Ooh, hope you're keeping safe alanr! I know the lockdown can try your patience. Hey Dean, if you remember who it was maybe I can add something to today's mix. And, yes, gongoleer, some Don Bikoff will fit nicely today.
	12:47pm doctorjazz: Feel like I'm just being strung along...
	12:49pm Irene Trudel: Hi Granny! Sanity is in short supply here these days.
	🥁 12:50pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Irene: it's time to make some Stone Soup outta what we got!
	🥁 12:51pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Good morning(-ish), Irene! May lose you for the last hour because guys are coming over to replace our modem but all the better to hear you on the archive after without dodgy internet service! We love you! x
	12:53pm Dean: Not Bikoff... I recall that on the day of the show I was listening to KPFK when they announced the appearance. I thought, "I got nothing to do tonight. I'll check it out." Nice venue, kind of a tiny McCabe's.
	12:56pm Stanley: Hi Irene and fellow listeners. Say Africa is sweet
	12:56pm doctorjazz: Really like Say Africa
	🥁 12:56pm Brian in UK: Hello Stanley.
	12:57pm gongoleer: @Irene. That would be cool. I mentioned him only because perhaps it was Don who Dean couldn't recall.
	12:58pm Irene Trudel: Indeed, Granny! Hi Summer and Michael and Sylvia! Hope you don't lose too much time. There's always the archive. Hi Stanley! Glad you're enjoying today's mix.
	12:59pm Stanley: Hi Brian. Another day, another gray hair.
	1:00pm Webhamster Henry: Hi Irene and drummer streamers - I've been listening, but not commenting.
	1:00pm Irene Trudel: Well, it's nice to have you lurking, Henry!
	🥁 1:02pm Sean in Bristol UK: What a marvellous set this is,
	🥁 1:05pm Sean in Bristol UK: Sorry to witter on about Bristol, we have a rather fine concert venue here called Colston Hall, seen some great artists there, Todd Rundgren, Steven Wilson to name a few. Well it looks like it is going to be renamed.
	1:05pm maestroso: Had you on since the beginning. Great sounds Irene! Music to crunch numbers by in my home office as a bear wanders around the yard.
	1:07pm doctorjazz: Web had a bear wandering around my neighborhood last week...
	1:10pm gongoleer: Great choice on Bikoff, Irene.
	1:12pm Irene Trudel: maestroso, that's good to hear. Happy to be everyone's soundtrack to the afternoon!
	1:12pm gongoleer: No bears here, yet but plenty of chipmunks, squirrels and other critters.
	1:16pm Dean: Yow. I'm combing through old issues of LAT, when they listed the performers at just about every venue, and I see that Fahey played the Fret House in April '87.
	1:18pm Malcolm: i saw derek gripper perform his arrangements of Malian music in Johannesburg a few years ago... one of the most transcendent musical experiences I've had
	1:23pm Malcolm: i've also seen guy buttery perform in grahamstown but was quite drunk at the time :D
	1:24pm Irene Trudel: Malcolm, Last year I saw Derek Gripper at Zankel Hall with a wonderful Malian trio whose name is escaping me at the moment. His imitations of the Kora are astonishing! Also, I had the pleasure of meeting and engineering a session with Guy Buttery for New Sounds a couple of years ago. (A really nice guy) Both of them jaw-droppingly good!
	🥁 1:28pm Sean in Bristol UK: That was a track of beauty from Richard Bona, thank you, Irene
	1:28pm Malcolm: @Irene oh wow cool! I'll have to search out that New Sounds session
	🥁 1:29pm chris: hi, Irene and folks. been listening and enjoying. have a special place in my heart for 'Beyond the Missouri Sky'. brings happy, warm feels when i hear anything from it. thanks for spinning it, Irene!
	1:32pm Maggie B.: Hi Irene and all! Loving these sounds for easing into my virtual work week. (It's been exactly 3 months now.)
	1:40pm Irene Trudel: Hi chris and Maggie B! Beyond the Missouri Sky is one of my go-to albums when I need something beautiful and calming. Maggie, I think it's about 3 months WFH for me as well. Gonna be a while longer I'm afraid. At least, thanks to our lead Drummer, Doug, I have this show to look forward to.
	1:45pm Sean in Bristol, UK: The sun is shining, a rather chilled craft IPA to hand and this wonderful music, for three hours each Monday life goes from ass wiping bad to finger lickin’ good!
	1:46pm Peter K.: Irene's show, today as always, is a barrage of beauty and an oasis of sanity in an insane world.
	🥁 1:46pm Michael 98145: @Sean chilly and damp morning here on the left coast, so that future sounds quite appealing
	1:47pm Maggie B.: Hear, hear, @Peter K.
	1:49pm Irene Trudel: Thanks Peter and Maggie B! Sean and Michael, that sounds like a fine idea once I'm done with the show. Feet up and relaxation=good!
	1:58pm Doug Schulkind: I've been doing actual work all day and unable to listen. The show, however, LOOKS fantastic.
	🥁 1:58pm βrian: Deliriously lovely weather here. A soft breeze, bird song, and now Irene.
	🥁 2:02pm Brian in UK: Sean, an odd metaphor!!
	2:04pm Irene Trudel: Thanks Doug and βrian! Having a lovely day playing music in this mild, cloudy June weather.
	🥁 2:10pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Oooh, great stuff, Irene! Is this from the new David Garland album? Love!
	2:12pm Sean in Bristol, UK: @Brian, picked up the ‘ass wiping’ etc, etc from a movie way back in time
	2:12pm Irene Trudel: Yes, it's David's latest!
	🥁 2:14pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Great! Going on the Bandcamp wishlist, pronto! x
	🥁 2:16pm Michael 98145: yes. liking these.
	2:20pm Sean in Bristol, UK: So maybe I have a little too much sun but it’s recycling collection tomorrow. Three bins dedicated to food leftovers, beer cans, (since the lockdown my beer empties has been a little embarrassing), newspapers, plastic. Huge thanks goes to the guys who have been collecting. How are folks doing with recycling, are you a tad embarrassed by the bottles of wine, beer etc that you have put out. Totally random stream here, profuse apologies for my off kilter moment!
	🥁 2:21pm Michael 98145: whoopsie
	🥁 2:22pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: !
	🥁 2:25pm βrian: It's wine bottles for us. They pile up, since pickup is only every other week whereas trash is picked up weekly. Seems bacward to me.
	🥁 2:26pm Michael 98145: yup. we always have a bin full of -containers-
	2:26pm Stanley: Sean - I'm intrigued about your beer. Is it from Bristol?
	🥁 2:31pm chris: Sean, though it pains my physician to hear, i have no shame about my part in the recycle bin contents: bottles of wine, beer, whisky.
	2:31pm Stanley: I'll hit bandcamp on Friday.
	🥁 2:34pm chris: Stanley, i'm currently enjoying an early dad's day gift of a bottle of Michel Couvreur whisky. single malt distilled in Scotland, then aged in very, very old sherry casks in a cave in France. exquisite.
	🥁 2:34pm βrian: Our birds start piping up around 4:30.
	2:35pm Sean in Bristol, UK: @Stanley, we are or were going craft brewery crazy over here, kind of mirroring the beer scene that has exploded in the US over the last ten years plus. We tend to go for a sane level of ABV. Not the 7% plus that is appreciated across ‘the pond’ which I am a huge fan of, hops coming out of your ears. I have a Brewery up the road from me, Twisted Oak, ticks all the boxes
	🥁 2:36pm Michael 98145: salutations from the land of hops
	🥁 2:38pm chris: picked up a half gallon growler of Blind Pig IPA from Russian River Brewing Company over the weekend. very hoppy, floral nose. very light color. slightly bitter. 6%. also exquisite. embarrassment of riches, truth be told.
	2:39pm Stanley: chris - wow! I looked it up. He imports the single malt and finishes the ageing in sherry casks. i saw the price too. You have generous child(ren). And, of course, you deserve it. I love sherry cask single malt. Happy Father's Day.
	2:39pm Irene Trudel: βrian, that may be happening here. My cat is quite aware of bird activity. i just try to ignore it until I see the sun starting to come up.
	2:41pm Malcolm: Got more music in my bandcamp wishlist than I realistically have time to listen to or money to spend on, but will definitely be purchasing some records on friday
	2:42pm Stanley: Hi Sean - I'm up in edinburgh and the scene has gone ape over the last few years. My man gets Verdant, whic I think is from Bristol. Twisted oak, I do not know but I'll enquire. And yes, juicy IPAs for me too (and big percent imperial stouts)
	2:46pm Stanley: My favourite East Coast breweries are Trillium from Massachusetts and Other Half from Brooklyn, who, incidently are doing a colabs with UK breweries to raise money for independents, who are struggling. Check ii out, if you can. During lockdown my guy has made a small fortune.
	2:49pm Dean: Really enjoy Blind Pig, sometimes more so than Pliny the Elder. But fave is still Pliny the Younger. These days, though, my neighborhood Gilman Brewing Co. triple IPA, Missouri Lean (10%abv) does the trick. Hey, I bet Charlie Haden (RIP) and Pat Metheny would enjoy Missouri Lean, too!
	2:51pm gongoleer: Here in So. VT. we have McNeills, an award winning brewery and Hermit's Thrush, a Belgium style brewery. Great both of them. In my small town of 12,000 there are 4 indie breweries. We get lots of NY and other out of state tourists who come for the Vt state brewery tours.
	2:52pm Stanley: I find TIPAs to be a bit too sweet but they can be very elegant, if nicely balanced.
	🥁 2:53pm chris: will need to get over there, Dean. thanks for the tip. Pliny the Younger is truly exceptional. and, cheers, Stanley! :)
	🥁 2:53pm βrian: @gongoleer: Is Otter Creek still in business. They had great beer. Saint Ambroise and Boréale were favorites, too, for road trips to Montreal.
	2:54pm Malcolm: Great show thanks Irene
	2:55pm gongoleer: @Chris-Sure come anytime when it becomes safe to do so. Let me know. We'll down a couple.
	2:56pm gongoleer: @Brian-Yes I think so. I believe there over on western side of state in Middlebury.
	2:56pm Irene Trudel: Thanks everyone for listening today. Let's do this again next Monday!
	2:57pm Webhamster Henry: This is slightly Die Knödel-esque!
	🥁 2:58pm chris: cheers, gongoleer! thanks for another wonderful show, Irene. you made my day.
	2:59pm Sean in Bristol, UK: Thanks for a mind blowing show, Irene, roll on next Monday
	3:00pm gongoleer: You betcha Irene. It's always on my radar. Barring major world calamity, wouldn't miss it. Sending you @your email chirping bird mp4 recorded from my deck. C u next week everyone.Be safe and remain joyful despite what's going on.
	3:00pm Stanley: Lovely show today Irene. Cheers everyone.
	3:06pm Really Lisa: Thank you for another great show, Irene!

	🥁 2:25pm βrian: It's wine bottles for us. They pile up, since pickup is only every other week whereas trash is picked up weekly. Seems bacward to me.
	🥁 2:26pm Michael 98145: yup. we always have a bin full of -containers-
	2:26pm Stanley: Sean - I'm intrigued about your beer. Is it from Bristol?
	🥁 2:31pm chris: Sean, though it pains my physician to hear, i have no shame about my part in the recycle bin contents: bottles of wine, beer, whisky.
	2:31pm Stanley: I'll hit bandcamp on Friday.
	🥁 2:34pm chris: Stanley, i'm currently enjoying an early dad's day gift of a bottle of Michel Couvreur whisky. single malt distilled in Scotland, then aged in very, very old sherry casks in a cave in France. exquisite.
	🥁 2:34pm βrian: Our birds start piping up around 4:30.
	2:35pm Sean in Bristol, UK: @Stanley, we are or were going craft brewery crazy over here, kind of mirroring the beer scene that has exploded in the US over the last ten years plus. We tend to go for a sane level of ABV. Not the 7% plus that is appreciated across ‘the pond’ which I am a huge fan of, hops coming out of your ears. I have a Brewery up the road from me, Twisted Oak, ticks all the boxes
	🥁 2:36pm Michael 98145: salutations from the land of hops
	🥁 2:38pm chris: picked up a half gallon growler of Blind Pig IPA from Russian River Brewing Company over the weekend. very hoppy, floral nose. very light color. slightly bitter. 6%. also exquisite. embarrassment of riches, truth be told.
	2:39pm Stanley: chris - wow! I looked it up. He imports the single malt and finishes the ageing in sherry casks. i saw the price too. You have generous child(ren). And, of course, you deserve it. I love sherry cask single malt. Happy Father's Day.
	2:39pm Irene Trudel: βrian, that may be happening here. My cat is quite aware of bird activity. i just try to ignore it until I see the sun starting to come up.
	2:41pm Malcolm: Got more music in my bandcamp wishlist than I realistically have time to listen to or money to spend on, but will definitely be purchasing some records on friday
	2:42pm Stanley: Hi Sean - I'm up in edinburgh and the scene has gone ape over the last few years. My man gets Verdant, whic I think is from Bristol. Twisted oak, I do not know but I'll enquire. And yes, juicy IPAs for me too (and big percent imperial stouts)
	2:46pm Stanley: My favourite East Coast breweries are Trillium from Massachusetts and Other Half from Brooklyn, who, incidently are doing a colabs with UK breweries to raise money for independents, who are struggling. Check ii out, if you can. During lockdown my guy has made a small fortune.
	2:49pm Dean: Really enjoy Blind Pig, sometimes more so than Pliny the Elder. But fave is still Pliny the Younger. These days, though, my neighborhood Gilman Brewing Co. triple IPA, Missouri Lean (10%abv) does the trick. Hey, I bet Charlie Haden (RIP) and Pat Metheny would enjoy Missouri Lean, too!
	2:51pm gongoleer: Here in So. VT. we have McNeills, an award winning brewery and Hermit's Thrush, a Belgium style brewery. Great both of them. In my small town of 12,000 there are 4 indie breweries. We get lots of NY and other out of state tourists who come for the Vt state brewery tours.
	2:52pm Stanley: I find TIPAs to be a bit too sweet but they can be very elegant, if nicely balanced.
	🥁 2:53pm chris: will need to get over there, Dean. thanks for the tip. Pliny the Younger is truly exceptional. and, cheers, Stanley! :)
	🥁 2:53pm βrian: @gongoleer: Is Otter Creek still in business. They had great beer. Saint Ambroise and Boréale were favorites, too, for road trips to Montreal.
	2:54pm Malcolm: Great show thanks Irene
	2:55pm gongoleer: @Chris-Sure come anytime when it becomes safe to do so. Let me know. We'll down a couple.
	2:56pm gongoleer: @Brian-Yes I think so. I believe there over on western side of state in Middlebury.
	2:56pm Irene Trudel: Thanks everyone for listening today. Let's do this again next Monday!
	2:57pm Webhamster Henry: This is slightly Die Knödel-esque!
	🥁 2:58pm chris: cheers, gongoleer! thanks for another wonderful show, Irene. you made my day.
	2:59pm Sean in Bristol, UK: Thanks for a mind blowing show, Irene, roll on next Monday
	3:00pm gongoleer: You betcha Irene. It's always on my radar. Barring major world calamity, wouldn't miss it. Sending you @your email chirping bird mp4 recorded from my deck. C u next week everyone.Be safe and remain joyful despite what's going on.
	3:00pm Stanley: Lovely show today Irene. Cheers everyone.
	3:06pm Really Lisa: Thank you for another great show, Irene!
