Listener comments!
	12:00pm Tony Coulter: Hello, all! Can anyone guess today's mystery LP-under-the-cassettes? It's actually the back cover -- but it's a pretty well-known record, so... PS: I think I used this one before....
	12:01pm Kay: Strawbs - From the Witchwood?
	🥁 12:01pm listener james from westwood: Good Tuesday, Tony and all!
	12:02pm headcleaner: holger hiller, a true prophet
	12:02pm Tony Coulter: Kay: You are correct! That was fast....
	12:02pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, James and headcleaner....
	12:03pm spodiodi: greetings, Tony Coulter and Hissheads!
	12:03pm Tony Coulter: Here's the Strawbs back cover: www.discogs.com...
	12:04pm Rich in Washington: Hellooooooooo
	12:05pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, heya, spodi & Rich!
	12:09pm Cmurtha: Tape time. Hello everyone.
	12:09pm ARB: This is very pleasant!
	12:09pm Tony Coulter: Hola, Cmurtha!
	12:10pm Tony Coulter: and ... hiya, ARB!
	12:12pm Tony Coulter: To the tune of the Television Personalities' "I Know Where Syd Barrett Lives"....
	12:13pm Tony Coulter: (this track on now, I mean)
	12:28pm Tony Coulter: For a language that's supposedly the closest to English, Dutch is pretty impenetrable, to these ears at least....
	12:29pm Tony Coulter: I find German much easier to grok....
	🥁 12:39pm WR: shucks, late again. darn work distracting me again. Grrrrr.
	12:40pm Tony Coulter: Hey, hey, WR!
	12:40pm headcleaner: That's the Hogan's Heroes effect, Tony
	12:41pm Tony Coulter: Ha!
	12:43pm Tony Coulter: And ... here's German. I really can get the gist much more easily....
	12:43pm headcleaner: German becomes easier because we've heard more of it (from TV, movies and songs). Technically (in terms of word and phoneme distance) Dutch is probably closer. But we never hear it (until we go there, and are totally confused).
	12:44pm Tony Coulter: Yeah, I think you're right about that.
	12:45pm headcleaner: Even dialects of English proper can be borderline impenetrable when first heard, after all
	12:49pm coelacanth∅: greetings Tony and hisstory buffs
	12:50pm spodiodi: wow. he sounded serious aloha, coelacanth∅
	12:50pm Tony Coulter: Greets, coel!
	12:51pm coelacanth∅: really liking this tape hey spodí
	12:59pm Worm Man: Are you familar with Stepmother with Lukas Simonis? I enjoyed Trespassers W.
	1:02pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Worm Man! I am definitely familiar with Lukas Simonis -- I'm a big fan -- but I haven't heard Stepmother. Their album "Calvary Greetings" has been on my wantlist a long time.
	1:02pm Little Fyodor: Hi Tony! That last tape was pretty cool. Reminded me of a review Walls Of Genius once received saying that we were good enough to make normal music but lacked the mental balance to do so! Haha!! These Josef folks are starting out very cool and interesting, too! Funny, I know I've heard their name before, but I never knew they were a band not a solo act, so I must not have known them all that well! This music doesn't sound familiar, either. So hey, I thought I knew Josef K. Noyce, but instead I'm learning something new!! And happy to do so!!
	1:03pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, heya, hello, Fyodor!
	🥁 1:05pm David (in London): Hey Tony and all groovers here gathered. We've got a total power outage here, so all devices are very low on juice. I'm listening till they all cark it...
	1:06pm Tony Coulter: @ Fyodor: The main guy in Josef K. Noyce is Wolfgang Fadi Dorninger, who was also in Monochrome Bleu.
	1:07pm Tony Coulter: Hey, David! Power to the people!
	1:07pm Stanley: Hi David. I've just heard about the floods.
	1:08pm Stanley: T-T-T-Tony!
	🥁 1:08pm David (in London): Stanley. There's an amazing clip on YouTube of a manhole cover in Chiswick exploding like a geezer.
	1:08pm Tony Coulter: Stanley! Stanley!
	1:11pm ARB: I'm new, why are they not archived?
	1:13pm Tony Coulter: @ ARB: It's because I play whole tapes, and sometimes demos and unreleased stuff. Station management thinks it's safer from a legal standpoint if I don't archive these shows. (My freeform shows are archived.)
	1:15pm Worm Man: "Calvary Greetings"is a must to hear!
	1:15pm Tony Coulter: Technically, I believe, radio stations aren't supposed to play entire albums. I have considered playing only one side of each tape, so I can archive the shows. May yet do that....
	1:16pm Tony Coulter: What say you to that idea?
	1:17pm ARB: Thanks Tony, that makes sense, glad I'm here live!
	1:20pm JtotheK: hiya Tony, hi everyone!
	1:20pm JtotheK: and ahoy, Arb! Enjoyed your programme yesterday.
	1:21pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, heya, hula hoop, Jtothek!
	1:21pm JtotheK: Yes, tape hiss tuesday is APPOINTMENT radio. I remember years ago a tape featuring numerous belches being recorded by some dude.
	1:22pm JtotheK: ^ of which, I was in a conference room listening with a colleague and as other colleagues wandered in and out of the room were wondering what exactly it was that we were listening to while we were working.
	1:23pm Tony Coulter: They may have the same reaction to today's last tape (by Unternehmen Panzerfaust).
	1:24pm Little Danny: Hi Tony, fascinating. Didn't know about the album-long embargo on FM radio, but seems an extremely outdated FCC proviso in 2021. (What isn't?) Not your problem either way, of course. I'd be totally down for the side-long focus if it meant they'd hit the archive. But I appreciate the uniqueness and have-to-be-there specialness of the album-long focus as well! (Especially in this time of unlimited, non-expiring, on-demand content delivery.)
	1:24pm Kevin / Ringwood / UK: Evening Tony and listeners. There was a Scottish band called Josef K, which is the name of the main character in The Trial by Franz Kafka. Wonder if this band is named with reference to that earlier Scots band, or the Kafka, but I don't know what Noyce could be about.
	1:24pm Little Danny: Also hi and sounding great as always!
	1:25pm headcleaner: Oh so it's actually for copyright reasons that you aren't archiving these shows, Tony? I thought it was to "respect the ephemerality of the Moment", sucker that I am
	1:25pm Tony Coulter: Greetings, Little Danny and Kevin!!
	1:26pm Tony Coulter: @ headcleaner: Well, it definitely started as the first ... but sort of morphed into the second, at least a bit.
	1:28pm JtotheK: hiya Danny! I enjoyed hearing 'Hit to Bongo' by Tito Puente on your recent program. I'd like to find that 45 someday.
	1:28pm headcleaner: Works for me either way - have to admit there's a certain frisson to hearing programs that can be heard once, and only once...
	1:28pm JtotheK: *the
	1:30pm Little Danny: Thanks Jason, and hi! I'd love it on 45 myself, though I'm happy just with the LP too.
	1:31pm ARB: Hi JtottheK, thank you! And hello Little Danny!
	1:32pm Little Danny: Hello Alina!
	1:33pm Little Danny: (ARB, I've started doing my local Wednesday night public radio shows live again, so I'm only how catching the Arbitrarium in the archive unfortch.)
	1:34pm Stanley: Haha - here's me thinking, from the picture, we had some raw UK punk lined up. Finally realised Alternative TV is in the title of this Joseph K Noyce. And on reflection, I think that's a good thing.
	1:35pm ARB: Ahh, gotcha Little Danny, thanks for letting me know that you're not boycottin ;-) Congrats on going back to local too!
	1:37pm Tony Coulter: @ Stanley: I thought the same thing when I first saw the tape! Here's what the liner notes say: ""In Bali old rites and modern life exist in a close contact. While celebrating a ceremony you can watch TV in another room. When life is hard to stand, people always tend to blame a 'higher' spirit for their bad situation. They pray and after celebration they look TV. That's magic!'"
	1:41pm Little Danny: This is really, really, really good.
	1:45pm Tony Coulter: Glad you like it, Danny! It never ceases to amaze me how much great music there is out there that is still more or less unknown ... a seemingly infinite amount.
	1:46pm coelacanth∅: greetings David(iL) sorry about your current issues
	🥁 1:47pm David (in London): Yeah, I'm really liking this as well. 1988, too, that liminal time when the initial tremors of dance music were just seeping into the wider consciousness.
	1:50pm coelacanth∅: Tony @115/116 i wish you would do that!
	1:51pm Little Danny: Totally agree, Tony. And you're definitely on the cutting edge of finding (and airing) quality lost music.
	1:55pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, Danny. Hope I don't cut myself.
	1:55pm Rich in Washington: Tony's the Alan Lomax of the polyester ferric oxide set.
	1:55pm coelacanth∅: as others indicated ^ i too appreciate the "radio-like" aspect of it being once out and that's it. i could tape it as i did in olden days. i thought it was a respect thing for the artist, so they might make some sales. ...but i've looked a few times and invariably either couldn't find the material online, or it was too costly for me.
	🥁 2:03pm David (in London): I actually quite like the fact that the Tape Hiss shows are 'be there or miss it'. In the age of 24/7 availability / streaming across so many platforms, it's rather nice that there is something you have to be home by 5pm for. (Appreciate that with the time difference, that might not be quite as convenient for those in the US).
	2:04pm headcleaner: It brings us in touch with our own ... impending obsolescence
	2:06pm spodiodi: impending
	2:06pm Tony Coulter: Imp ending....
	2:08pm Tony Coulter: Umm, I guess Treble King isn't really a "they," but a "he" ... it's the solo, one-man project of Mark Brooks of the Denver band Warlock Pinchers. (Thanks to Little Fyodor for that info!)
	2:09pm Stanley: I echo what David said about catching Tape Hiss.
	2:15pm Tony Coulter: Well, this is why I've hesitated in switching to the archivable half-a-tape approach ... a lot of people seem to enjoy the show's current evanescence.
	2:17pm ARB: I'm totally enjoying that aspect of it, and the show in general. Either way is cool, I was just curious why.
	2:17pm JtotheK: wonders if the Treble King is a benevolent king.
	2:18pm Rich in Washington: I like this a lot.
	2:18pm JtotheK: (And while I'm bummed when I miss a Tape Hiss, I do like the current format!)
	2:19pm Rich in Washington: Reminds me of very early Severed Heads. But also completely different.
	🥁 2:25pm David (in London): When the Treble King met the Bass Queen, it was moider.
	2:28pm Mark Williams: this Treble King has been quite good. New to me. Hey Tony and others.
	🥁 2:29pm WR: I record the tape hiss program when I can. catch maybe 1 a month. And like today, I often don't catch it from the beginning.
	2:29pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Mark!
	🥁 2:30pm David (in London): Rich, Mark, WR, salutations.
	2:30pm headcleaner: wholesome stuff, Tony - must dash, alas
	🥁 2:31pm WR: HI David i L, glad your devices still have some power.
	2:31pm Tony Coulter: @ Mark: There are at least four Treble King tapes (I only have the one we just heard).
	2:32pm Tony Coulter: See you, headcleaner!
	2:33pm JtotheK: yeah, this Pants Fest is pretty interesting. enjoyed all the tapes today, Tony!
	🥁 2:34pm WR: Ha, this one has my partner giving me the I'm trying to work here look.
	2:36pm Tony Coulter: Well, you can tell them it'll be over before you know it.
	2:36pm Rich in Washington: because of wmfu shows like this one I have been put in my own sound isolation room.
	🥁 2:37pm David (in London): WR it makes you realise how utterly at you are at the mercy of the power grid. It goes down and, with all the devices we surround ourselves with these days, you are floundering completely.
	🥁 2:38pm WR: I can always go to head phones but we'll ride this one out.
	🥁 2:42pm WR: Yes David iL, totally dependent for work and comfort and entertainment. Have been through outage before, but fortunately nothing longer than a day or two, and not recently.
	2:44pm FCC: https://www.broadcastlawblog.com/2021/02/articles/looking-at-the-performance-complement-and-other-rules-that-apply-to-webcasting-companies-relying-on-the-sound-recording-statutory-license/ Terrestrial broadcasters are exempt. Webcasters must comply with the rules about the sound recording performance complement.
	2:44pm Little Danny: Thanks Tony, fantastic selections today.
	2:45pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, Danny!
	🥁 2:56pm WR: Interesting read anonymous representation of FCC.
	2:57pm Rich in Washington: they solved a math problem to post that.
	2:57pm spodiodi: thanks for sharing another magical entry of fleeting Hisstory, Tony!
	2:58pm Rich in Washington: Wonderful hiss filled show today, Tony! Thank you!
	🥁 2:58pm David (in London): Thanks for a great show today Tony.
	2:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tony!
	2:58pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, everybody! See you!
	🥁 2:59pm listener james from westwood: Always a fun three-hour tour, Tony—thanks!
	🥁 3:00pm WR: Thank you Tony!

	1:31pm ARB: Hi JtottheK, thank you! And hello Little Danny!
	1:32pm Little Danny: Hello Alina!
	1:33pm Little Danny: (ARB, I've started doing my local Wednesday night public radio shows live again, so I'm only how catching the Arbitrarium in the archive unfortch.)
	1:34pm Stanley: Haha - here's me thinking, from the picture, we had some raw UK punk lined up. Finally realised Alternative TV is in the title of this Joseph K Noyce. And on reflection, I think that's a good thing.
	1:35pm ARB: Ahh, gotcha Little Danny, thanks for letting me know that you're not boycottin ;-) Congrats on going back to local too!
	1:37pm Tony Coulter: @ Stanley: I thought the same thing when I first saw the tape! Here's what the liner notes say: ""In Bali old rites and modern life exist in a close contact. While celebrating a ceremony you can watch TV in another room. When life is hard to stand, people always tend to blame a 'higher' spirit for their bad situation. They pray and after celebration they look TV. That's magic!'"
	1:41pm Little Danny: This is really, really, really good.
	1:45pm Tony Coulter: Glad you like it, Danny! It never ceases to amaze me how much great music there is out there that is still more or less unknown ... a seemingly infinite amount.
	1:46pm coelacanth∅: greetings David(iL) sorry about your current issues
	🥁 1:47pm David (in London): Yeah, I'm really liking this as well. 1988, too, that liminal time when the initial tremors of dance music were just seeping into the wider consciousness.
	1:50pm coelacanth∅: Tony @115/116 i wish you would do that!
	1:51pm Little Danny: Totally agree, Tony. And you're definitely on the cutting edge of finding (and airing) quality lost music.
	1:55pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, Danny. Hope I don't cut myself.
	1:55pm Rich in Washington: Tony's the Alan Lomax of the polyester ferric oxide set.
	1:55pm coelacanth∅: as others indicated ^ i too appreciate the "radio-like" aspect of it being once out and that's it. i could tape it as i did in olden days. i thought it was a respect thing for the artist, so they might make some sales. ...but i've looked a few times and invariably either couldn't find the material online, or it was too costly for me.
	🥁 2:03pm David (in London): I actually quite like the fact that the Tape Hiss shows are 'be there or miss it'. In the age of 24/7 availability / streaming across so many platforms, it's rather nice that there is something you have to be home by 5pm for. (Appreciate that with the time difference, that might not be quite as convenient for those in the US).
	2:04pm headcleaner: It brings us in touch with our own ... impending obsolescence
	2:06pm spodiodi: impending
	2:06pm Tony Coulter: Imp ending....
	2:08pm Tony Coulter: Umm, I guess Treble King isn't really a "they," but a "he" ... it's the solo, one-man project of Mark Brooks of the Denver band Warlock Pinchers. (Thanks to Little Fyodor for that info!)
	2:09pm Stanley: I echo what David said about catching Tape Hiss.
	2:15pm Tony Coulter: Well, this is why I've hesitated in switching to the archivable half-a-tape approach ... a lot of people seem to enjoy the show's current evanescence.
	2:17pm ARB: I'm totally enjoying that aspect of it, and the show in general. Either way is cool, I was just curious why.
	2:17pm JtotheK: wonders if the Treble King is a benevolent king.
	2:18pm Rich in Washington: I like this a lot.
	2:18pm JtotheK: (And while I'm bummed when I miss a Tape Hiss, I do like the current format!)
	2:19pm Rich in Washington: Reminds me of very early Severed Heads. But also completely different.
	🥁 2:25pm David (in London): When the Treble King met the Bass Queen, it was moider.
	2:28pm Mark Williams: this Treble King has been quite good. New to me. Hey Tony and others.
	🥁 2:29pm WR: I record the tape hiss program when I can. catch maybe 1 a month. And like today, I often don't catch it from the beginning.
	2:29pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Mark!
	🥁 2:30pm David (in London): Rich, Mark, WR, salutations.
	2:30pm headcleaner: wholesome stuff, Tony - must dash, alas
	🥁 2:31pm WR: HI David i L, glad your devices still have some power.
	2:31pm Tony Coulter: @ Mark: There are at least four Treble King tapes (I only have the one we just heard).
	2:32pm Tony Coulter: See you, headcleaner!
	2:33pm JtotheK: yeah, this Pants Fest is pretty interesting. enjoyed all the tapes today, Tony!
	🥁 2:34pm WR: Ha, this one has my partner giving me the I'm trying to work here look.
	2:36pm Tony Coulter: Well, you can tell them it'll be over before you know it.
	2:36pm Rich in Washington: because of wmfu shows like this one I have been put in my own sound isolation room.
	🥁 2:37pm David (in London): WR it makes you realise how utterly at you are at the mercy of the power grid. It goes down and, with all the devices we surround ourselves with these days, you are floundering completely.
	🥁 2:38pm WR: I can always go to head phones but we'll ride this one out.
	🥁 2:42pm WR: Yes David iL, totally dependent for work and comfort and entertainment. Have been through outage before, but fortunately nothing longer than a day or two, and not recently.
	2:44pm FCC: https://www.broadcastlawblog.com/2021/02/articles/looking-at-the-performance-complement-and-other-rules-that-apply-to-webcasting-companies-relying-on-the-sound-recording-statutory-license/ Terrestrial broadcasters are exempt. Webcasters must comply with the rules about the sound recording performance complement.
	2:44pm Little Danny: Thanks Tony, fantastic selections today.
	2:45pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, Danny!
	🥁 2:56pm WR: Interesting read anonymous representation of FCC.
	2:57pm Rich in Washington: they solved a math problem to post that.
	2:57pm spodiodi: thanks for sharing another magical entry of fleeting Hisstory, Tony!
	2:58pm Rich in Washington: Wonderful hiss filled show today, Tony! Thank you!
	🥁 2:58pm David (in London): Thanks for a great show today Tony.
	2:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tony!
	2:58pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, everybody! See you!
	🥁 2:59pm listener james from westwood: Always a fun three-hour tour, Tony—thanks!
	🥁 3:00pm WR: Thank you Tony!
