	9:04am Mike W.: Greetings from the Exiled
	9:06am Handy Haversack: Mike W., how stands your field today? K8's sched. suddenly changed, and our old dog walker is out of commission, so it looks like I'm working from home this week while we sort that out. But there are worse fates than watching the kittens play! Hey, Marley, Strandlund, Guido, 12539, G, and of course Yeti Bob again!
	9:06am TDK60: Hello Monday Joe. I missed last week's Verve-Folkways/Forecast special, but have been slowly listening to each set. Music of my youth plus things I never heard. Great idea.
	9:07am adampsyche: happy monday, this is gorgeous
	9:07am Krys O.: Greetings!

	9:15am Joe McG: Hey, radio friends, welcome to the show. Starting nice and easy today for a Monday morning in November.
	9:15am mb: Morning Joe and listener folk
	9:16am Krys O.: There's a scene in Jailhouse Rock where Elvis Presley's character is surrounded by jazz hounds discussing Lennie Tristano. When someone asks his opinion, the answer is: "Lady I don't know what the hell you're talking about."
	9:18am annie: :)
	9:18am skyline chili: Helloey Joey McGaskoey
	9:20am Mike W.: Handy, the field is drenched (I didn’t do it!), so it’ll be a streets-of-suburbia walk for us this morning. I’m glad you’re at home, safe and dry and mit der animals, several states away.
	9:21am Handy Haversack: Hey, Marley! Thanks! Gray day here. The hound and I will explore it a little soon enough.
	9:26am lpfnrobin: Not Van Halen yet.....Morning Joe!
	9:27am wiliam OHara: echos of pat
	9:27am Ceej: Nice and easy...
	👻 9:27am Hughie Considine: Nothing like Monday morning sublimity with just a touch of surface noise ... greetings to all.
	9:28am skyline chili: K E double L, O double good, Kellogg's best to you.
	9:28am Son Of Pantz: Smooth
	👻 9:28am Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Hi you noisy lot!
	9:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Morning FMUland !
	9:30am Roberto: "Between you and I" gahhh. Back to grammar school for Colin.
	9:31am Joe McG: @Roberto: Ha ha
	👻 9:31am Marley P. Dogg: Ahh Szabo - it’s literally my middle name
	9:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 58 Years : www.facebook.com...
	9:35am steveo: Pszabo? Gorgeous opening set
	9:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: with the beatles : www.facebook.com...
	👻 9:35am yerfriendpaul: Good morning Joe, everyone!
	9:39am Mike W.: Joe has the calendar read very accurately, it is AnneBriggsvember for the next four months at least
	9:40am Joe McG: @Mike W: Yes, indeedy!
	9:42am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Beeswing herself. Only read about Anne as some elusive legendary figure.
	👻 9:42am Webhamster Henry: This is an almost Irene-ian set.
	9:42am Handy Haversack: Well, that's good news. Will see us through Smarch. Stephen Merritt's voice sounds a lot like David Wiffin, meseems.
	9:43am Rachel Bo Bachel: Oh Joe the heartstrings- first Anne Briggs and now this song… sudden onset verklemptness is setting in! Good morning!
	👻 9:44am YETI BOB: HH: Sounds like Steven Merritt with more vocal training and well-controlled vibrato
	9:44am Joe McG: @RBR: "Onset verklemptness"! Ha ha
	9:45am TDK60: Lots of good versions of "Four."
	👻 9:45am YETI BOB: @WHH: "Irenic" is actually an adjective www.merriam-webster.com...
	9:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Had to go to wigkey to brush on up Merritt's exact patriarchal situation... remarkable story !
	9:46am skyline chili: @Marley P. Dogg: M P single D, O double good, Marley P. Dogg best to you. So what's the story with Szabo, I'm guessing perhaps your mother's maiden name?
	9:47am Handy Haversack: Hey, Rache!
	9:47am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mentally conflate the names 'Carolyn Hester' & 'Jusy Henske'. This is a serious mistake.
	9:48am Roger: perfect curation for a grey dey
	9:48am steveo: such a grey feeling
	👻 9:49am 12539: Such a rich, multicolored grey.
	👻 9:50am Brian in UK: Hello Jeffrey, oh no sorry. Hey Joe!!!
	👻 9:50am Webhamster Henry: @YETI BO Irene plays Irenic music! Catch the drummer stream at noon today! wfmu.org...
	9:52am Joe McG: I'll take it as flattery that people say I'm channeling Irene and Jeffrey, two WFMU immortals!
	👻 9:52am YETI BO: WHH: It's quite apt, isn't it? "Favoring, conducive to, or operating toward peace, moderation, or conciliation"
	9:52am davefromtoronto: i prefer to wander as i wonder but that's just me.
	9:53am Handy Haversack: This. This is November. Wet boots and rains. Chimney-smoke lanes. Nice one, Joe. Perfect touch.
	👻 9:53am karlward: Yes
	👻 9:53am karlward: Full confidence in this song
	9:53am Speck: What a great show. Love this set.
	9:53am Handy Haversack: karlward knows. Not his first November.
	9:53am TDK60: Yeh Joe, Jeffrey D.'s show was fab. Irene's still is.
	9:54am Colin: Great show today. Thanks!
	👻 9:55am Brian in UK: Theremin or bowed saw? Or neither.
	👻 9:55am YETI BO: Brian: Sounds like saw to me
	9:55am TDK60: Brian in UK: I see it as a saw.
	👻 9:55am Webhamster Henry: This is a bowed saw! I play wrenches, so I should know1
	9:56am steveo: bowed theremin
	9:56am lpfnrobin: Same sound to me but...thats a little out there...
	👻 9:56am YETI BO: Old joke from my Dad: "I see, said the blind carpenter, as he picked up his hammer and saw."
	👻 9:56am Brian in UK: I was favouring a saw.
	9:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh yeah - Waits'd be a saw.
	9:56am Stanley: Brian - I saw it as a theremin
	👻 9:56am YETI BO: Theremin has a purer tone - with the saw you can hear the horsehair a little (if you listen for it)
	9:57am Regina Stargazer: It was a saw. If it is Tom Waits, it's usually garbage turned beautiful instruments ♡
	👻 9:57am Brian in UK: Remember hearing it on the first Flatlanders album.
	9:57am Handy Haversack: There's definitely saw played on the album.
	9:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously - can't move the station to Canada to get Jeffrey Davison back ?
	9:58am Regina Stargazer: Incredible Playlist today, Joe. thank you ♡
	9:58am Handy Haversack: It's the customs duties, Rev Rab. If the station were a canoe, it would be covered by treaty, but they really get you on the tariffs with nonprofit radio stations.
	👻 9:59am YETI BO: " The saw player on this record is Don Neely, a Bay Area musician, who also is the band leader of the Royal Society Jazz Orchestra. " - sawnotes.com...
	9:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...damn Handy. F*ckin' commies...
	👻 9:59am Brian in UK: Webhamster Henry. Thought wrenches were spanners to us. What is a wrench then?
	10:03am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...all in a day's work for - Bicycle RepairMan !!
	👻 10:03am Webhamster Henry: They ARE spanners: Here's something I did with WFMU chatboarder Ranjit: vimeo.com...
	10:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nice video WebHenry ! ...ready for the Holidaze...
	10:05am Mike W.: Before Sharon Van Etten released her first LP she regularly performed solo a cappella around NYC. I remember one particularly moving set at Monkeytown...all 30 or so of us rapt as fuck.
	10:05am steveo: We Release Whatever the Fuck We Want Records
	👻 10:06am karlward: WHAT
	10:06am steveo: lol
	👻 10:08am Brian in UK: Thanks WH.
	10:09am Rachel Bo Bachel: Steveo oh my! Awww love this song super cute cover CP :)
	10:09am Peter K.: For the record, the Bill Evans album you mentioned, “Conversations With Myself” — on which he actually overdubbed himself twice — was recorded eight years after that Lennie Tristano album. Tristano presumably inspired Evans to do what he did, but it took the inspiration a while to take hold.
	10:10am Joe McG: Thanks for the info, steveo! @Mike W.: She sings it beautifully. I mean, it takes a lot of courage to take on Anne Briggs, in my view. She does well! @Peter: I like the Bill Evans record more, but it's cool that Tristano had this inspirational idea!
	👻 10:12am Hughie Considine: Getting a major Warren Zevon "Mutineer" vibe from this rendition...
	👻 10:12am Brian in UK: Gerry is a lot less nasally here.
	10:14am Kaper79: I can hear Shane MacGowan
	10:14am Brendan: Top of the morning to ya, Joe.
	10:14am Stanley: Brian - probably blew his nose good before recording this. I think Gerry Rafferty is an overlooked artist. His work with Rab Noakes is really good.
	👻 10:15am karlward: This is great. I've only ever heard the Frank Black cover from Fast Man Raider Man.
	10:16am Doug in JC: whosampled shows 25 covers of the original
	👻 10:16am Brian in UK: Agree, so is Rab Noakes. Rab gets a mention in an old Lindisfarne song.
	👻 10:16am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning. I'm guessing Baker Street is in some other town?
	10:17am Baja Joe: Good morning Joe.
	10:18am Joe: Listening from Wisconsin Joe. I really enjoy your show.
	👻 10:19am Brian in UK: Salford, where Ewan McColl was born is now cleaned up. The river Irwell running through used to be disgusting.
	10:19am Rachel Bo Bachel: Loving this jangly Pogues tune I’ve never heard before! ❤️
	10:19am Kaper79: Enjoying with all me tender heart !
	10:20am Joe McG: @Stanley: Agree, very overlooked! @Brian: Nice to hear that Salford is a bit less dirty! @Joe and Kaspar: Thanks and great!
	10:21am iron wombat: I thought the Pogues song was the Jazz Butcher. Only to be followed by the Jazz Butcher
	10:22am Andres: ❤️ RIP Jazz Butcher
	👻 10:24am YETI BO: Henry: Are your wrenches (spanners) tuned in equal-temperment or just intonation? Or are they adjustable?
	10:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: BillEvans 'Convo with Myself' famous for exposition of him as Composer utilizing multi-tracking. All in his head like Brian Wilson... Clapton in Cream would do two tracks of bitchen wailing - but Hendrix would genuinely construct things...
	10:29am Phillippe: This Swansea Sound is great! Hey everyone! Hi Handy, YB, RR, Stanley et al
	10:30am efd: Pre-emptively mentioning that HHBTM stands for “Happy Happy Birthday To Me” in case you’re not aware, Joe. Much nicer than WRWTFWW.
	10:31am Joe McG: @EFD: Ha ha, thanks, Evan!
	10:31am Stanley: Hi Phillippio.
	10:32am SeanG: Gerry Rafferty rules all!
	👻 10:32am karlward: @EFD we're going to miss you this week, but I know I'm not the only one who is PSYCHED for the extra Duane Train
	👻 10:32am chresti: Morning Joe and company, listening from the tennis booth in Griffith Park!
	10:33am efd: @karllward I’m psyched for it too!!
	10:33am jt: WRWTFWW!They also have JAZZ swag...
	👻 10:34am Webhamster Henry: @YETI BOB some are imperial, some are metric. You can tine them a little by adjusting the mass with supermagnets, but... why! I hang them by fishing line from a portable drying rack.
	10:35am Handy Haversack: I step out for a moment and miss "Down All the Days"?! Never get off of the boat. Hey, Phillippe!
	10:36am prudy: Yes...how is Shane McGowan still alive? The pickling effect?
	10:36am Rachel Bo Bachel: Handy I didn’t know that one it reminded me of REM a little!
	10:38am xangoir: never been this excited for meatloaf since mama made it
	👻 10:38am YETI BO: Deep Cuts of Meat Loaf!
	10:38am Phillippe: Mr. Loaf
	10:38am Joe McG: @prudy: That documentary "Crock of Gold" is both funny and disturbing at the same time. He's so messed up. @xangoir: This song may change your mind!
	👻 10:39am Brian in UK: YETI BO, go to your room!!!!
	10:39am Son Of Pantz: Reminds me of my wife's meatloaf...stoney.
	10:39am Handy Haversack: Dang, now I have to listen to that Cat Power cover, too. "A Pair of Brown Eyes" is one of my all-time favorite songs. Rache, that whole album is great.
	👻 10:39am karlward: Reminds me of that Kiss song from The Elder, "A World Without Meatloaf"
	10:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WYSIWYG ...not on WRWTFWW. Wull speak of the devil Cream.
	10:41am Krys O.: Wow! Never heard this.
	👻 10:41am chresti: wow these singles!
	10:42am Joe McG: Adding a Latin groove with a hip-hop edge to Cream in 1968 is pretty damned amazing!
	👻 10:42am DjLorraine: Dance floor is like the sea...(not darsblower)
	10:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Works !
	10:47am Krys O.: Watching old Ozzie & Harriet shows was great. When Ricky performed with James Burton backing him up, they always showed Ozzie beaming with joy.
	10:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Usually they had to signal to the Old School by Clowning it Out when the kids Rawked...
	10:49am Joe McG: @Krys: "It's Late" might be a "Wake Up Little Susie" rip-off, but it's a good one!
	10:51am McGroovey: New Colony Six: I have the Sundazed comp that came out in 1993. Why isn't that song on it? I feel cheated!
	👻 10:51am karlward: This is what living in Houston without an air conditioner was like
	👻 10:51am karlward: Oh wait it was nothing like this, now that we're at the chorus
	10:52am efd: #notthatsting
	👻 10:52am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Ugh, just spent an hour locked out of work because of perfect storm of Citrix update, password expiring, and Google Play not letting me disable Play Protect. Happy Monday!
	10:52am Joe McG: Little did anyone know what Sting was up to in his off-time from the Police.
	10:52am skyline chili: WYSIWYG... WRWTFWW ? with the exception of WTF, which I am assuming it is what it is, that's what I'm asking about WTF Is the rest of that junky jive
	👻 10:52am Brian in UK: I'll get the Karcher!
	10:52am Kat in Chicago: I’m not sure what’s more hilarious, the subject matter of this tune, or the fact that it’s attributed to “Sting”
	10:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Sting takes so long with his Tantra that the hot water runs out is the thing...
	10:53am Strandlund: I always heard that Sting sang in the shower...
	👻 10:53am Hughie Considine: His shower is of course a Roman bath...
	10:53am ?: Nice. I made it for "Do It In The Shower" 😄
	10:54am OTB: That was far superior to the majority of Sting's post-police albums.
	10:54am Will: Poor Sting. His burgeoning late-70s career derailed by some other guy named Sting.
	10:55am McGroovey: Janis really wants to crowd all these words in to this song
	10:55am Joe McG: @Will: Ha ha, the ignominy!
	👻 10:55am Hughie Considine: I'd like to hear the other Sting take on "Synchronicity II."
	10:55am Joe McG: @Hughie: Ha ha, he'd sure add some excitement to it.
	👻 10:56am Oxidized: I heard there are Blue Turtle outtakes with the lyric "I hope Russians do it in the shower too" but someone talked him out of it.
	10:58am Joe McG: @Oxidized: Ha ha ha. And then the Loch Ness monster showed up to eat the blue turtles.
	11:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...told ya it was a long shower...
	11:02am Yes: morning everyone
	11:03am Roberto: I swear the hold music for my local pharmacy's phone line sounds like the intro to Geronimo's Cadillac.
	11:05am lpfnrobin: You'd be thinking that we could have custom wait music....but the bots love to work! No music for you 'ya know?
	11:06am Roberto: Cadillac was founded in 1902, so it's possible he was sitting in one.
	11:07am McGroovey: I was confused by Michael Murphy when I was a kid because my friend's older brother was named Michael Murphy. I was also confused by George Wallace because one of my teachers was Mrs Wallace.
	👻 11:07am YETI BO: Skyline: It's a record label, stands for "We Release Whatever The Fuck We Want + We Release Jazz" :-)
	👻 11:08am YETI BO: wrwtfww.com
	👻 11:09am YETI BO: WYSIWYG is an old computing acronym for "What you see is what you get" (meaning, basically, what you see on the screen is the same as what comes out the printer)
	11:10am lpfnrobin: Whizzy Whigs
	👻 11:10am YETI BO: Also, I recall that Camper Van Beethoven had a song called "Joe Stalin's Cadillac"
	11:10am skyline chili: Mucho gracias senor yeti.
	11:13am lpfnrobin: Thats an interesting site YETI, found a thing I need to check in on....if I recall the visuals were so good - you look for any links and follow / wand(t)er a path
	👻 11:13am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Last night my local Trade Fair had one of the many REM Greatest Hits albums on as background music. I felt very old.
	👻 11:13am SEÑOR YETI: De nada, Skyline.
	11:14am steveo: djs doing other djs' theme shows is fun
	11:15am V Priceless: yay Stranglers! Hi Joe!
	👻 11:16am SEÑOR YETI: "New Stranglers Album" is something I never expected to hear
	11:17am skyline chili: Yeti B: I usually don't know what anyone is talking about half the time, so pay no attention to me. Come to think of it i think i owe an explanation to Marley p dogg about something i texted her earlier.
	11:18am Ed: Wow! Stranglers are back with Hugh Cornwall? sadly sans Dave Greenfield. Pencil in that album for x-mas!
	11:18am Joe McG: "This is where your solo would go" kills me.
	👻 11:18am Hughie Considine: This is really wonderful and quietly devastating.
	11:19am Joe McG: @Ed: No Hugh, alas, but still very good.
	👻 11:19am SEÑOR YETI: Skyline: You're fine, you're one of the regulars here
	11:20am DJ Guin: Interesting Fact: The Stranglers' Dave Greenfield was a musical perfectionist and could be awkward in social situations; observations consistent with his diagnosis, never made public during his lifetime, as a very high-functioning autistic.
	11:20am Ed: @joe Dang It sounded like Hugh singing. But hey I'll take that new album none the less.
	11:21am lpfnrobin: I purposely disorganize myself, I eventually find it which is good. Well more than good. Its the only arcane way to find truth....
	11:23am McGroovey: Oops
	11:23am Joe McG: Oopsie!
	11:23am Handy Haversack: Turntable 1? Are you messing with the MP3s? This vengeful streak must end!
	👻 11:23am Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Oh cool! The dance mix!
	11:23am SomeGuy: Whoa. You just Max Hedroom'd the audio feed. Kind of dug it.
	11:23am Joe McG: Extended version!
	11:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...that was where his Solo went...
	11:26am Joe McG: Apologies to Ethan Miller and the gang. Hopefully we'll get a physical copy of this album since I'm better with records than these damned mp3s!
	11:26am lpfnrobin: Wrong as snow in October....I mean are we ready yet?
	11:28am skyline chili: SEÑOR YETI: if you consider me a regular, then all the rest of you must be permanent's. I just don't understand how all you can work, play, eat, and do everything else and maintain staying constantly on the chat. The only thing i can figure is that you all have super multi tri-tasking powers.
	11:28am lpfnrobin: heh
	11:30am V Priceless: @ Ed - no Hugh Cornwell, no Jet Black (retired). Album is quite good - JJ leading the charge.
	11:30am EG_Astro: thank you for playing this song
	11:30am SomeGuy: Great tune but The Silos version is a real banger, as this song should be.
	11:30am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Mr. YETI BOB also maintains 4 simultaneous online chess games. I read that on the Interweb thingie.
	11:31am lpfnrobin: Is this Michaell Hall from John Oats and co??
	👻 11:31am karlward: See this is what the holidays are really about
	11:31am Morgan: hi all, that Stranglers wake song was very moving. @DJGuin have you ever read oliver sachs’ musicophilia? neat case studies of musical phenomena experienced by the neuro-atypical
	11:31am Jason from Houston: Get in, karlward. Let's go.
	11:31am egould310: All of this is really reckless behavior. Be careful fella’s.
	👻 11:32am karlward: Jason I am already parkouring in my truck, a straight line coming right at you
	11:32am Baja Joe: Drugs and driving don't exactly mix well, dontcha' know.
	👻 11:33am SEÑOR YETI: Skyline: Fast fingers and gigabit fiber :) Woods: Actually I'm terrible at chess! I get too distracted. Also go on the offense and miss my own weak spots. A kid could beat me. All: Why does this piano part sound so familiar? What song did Michael Hall crib this from?
	11:33am Jason from Houston: Happy Thanksgiving, boss. See you soon.
	11:33am Stanley: Them were the days!
	11:33am lpfnrobin: Yeah you screw up the Daryl's form the Michaels cause' you cant right now.
	👻 11:33am karlward: "All I Hear is Metal and Motown" is possibly the greatest quote from the 90s
	👻 11:33am SEÑOR YETI: Baja Joe: Depends on the drugs...
	11:35am skyline chili: Woods: I believe it !
	11:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pretty much G-Em-F-G7 - which is most Songs in the 1950s. 1st chord sequence I ever learned - cause someone had written it in ball-point on the gittar I had...
	11:36am lpfnrobin: Known to happen, grease pencils and all, sometimes it takes effort arcane to make the next big thing that thang
	11:36am Handy Haversack: karlward, yeah, that one really landed.
	👻 11:37am SEÑOR YETI: RevRab: Sure, good ol' I-vi-IV-V7 - but, the particular way it was being played, the rhythm and feel of it, sounded a LOT like something else.... it will come to me (maybe)
	11:37am judy from croton: What a song!
	11:38am judy from croton: So relate
	👻 11:39am DjLorraine: Pardon the tangent, is NorthGineaHills ok? I haven't seen a post in awhile
	👻 11:39am SEÑOR YETI: RR: Did you mean something like C-Am-F-G7? Or am I confused?
	11:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Has to be sure not to gain in emphasis or momentum anything... Reminds me of Motern Media somehow...
	11:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeti you're exactly correct.
	11:40am judy from croton: Goosebumps
	11:40am Zephyr: I try to only leave sweet comments but that song should have ended half way.
	11:40am Joe B: thank you Shelto for summing up my life
	11:41am joseloalter: Very beautiful, moving show. Thank you Joe!
	11:41am Handy Haversack: DjLorraine, I was wondering the same thing but did see him post briefly last week. Just can't remember which day now.
	11:41am lpfnrobin: When you wish....what a thing
	11:41am Joe McG: @Joe B: Ha ha ha
	11:43am lpfnrobin: Fading into this...
	11:47am Kotzwinkled: Yesss...Loudon is an underrated king of songwriting.
	11:48am Joe McG: Richard Thompson and BJ Cole on this one.
	11:48am lpfnrobin: Damn song give me indigo eyes.....really waving this air around
	11:48am Roberto: Loudon AKA Capt. Spalding on MAS*H!
	11:49am skyline chili: ♪all I hear is metal and Motown♪I guess that was the case at one time, but not anymore. I don't even think ¾ of today's generation even knows what Motown is, or anything pretty much before 1990
	11:50am lpfnrobin: Beep Boop you are correct %you%
	11:50am DJ Guin: @Morgan - 11:31am -- no, can't say I have, but that is why i love WFMU and the community. i learn something every day.
	11:51am Handy Haversack: The Singing Surgeon, Roberto! Didn't even realize that.
	11:51am Son Of Pantz: Great show today, Joe. Pass the stuffing.
	11:52am joeymargaret: Hi Joe McG, thanks for another week of beautiful music. Happy Thanksgiving!
	11:52am Roberto: Yeah I didn't realize it until I rewatched the series with my daughter recently on Hulu. I remember watching it as a kid but I had no idea who Loudon was at the time.
	11:53am dreamyandseedy: hi joe, wanted to say thank you for playing that Dion song last week, Daddy Rollin, I've played that song every day, multiple times a day ever since! and thanks for the show today :)
	11:53am lpfnrobin: If your asked to hold the celery, let it steep in a fine breakdown before serving. It might never be held back again...just not ripe enough

K8's sched. suddenly changed, and our old dog walker is out of commission, so it looks like I'm working from home this week while we sort that out. But there are worse fates than watching the kittens play! Hey, Marley, Strandlund, Guido, 12539, G, and of course Yeti Bob again!
	9:06am TDK60: Hello Monday Joe. I missed last week's Verve-Folkways/Forecast special, but have been slowly listening to each set. Music of my youth plus things I never heard. Great idea.

	9:15am mb: Morning Joe and listener folk
	9:16am Krys O.: There's a scene in Jailhouse Rock where Elvis Presley's character is surrounded by jazz hounds discussing Lennie Tristano. When someone asks his opinion, the answer is: "Lady I don't know what the hell you're talking about."
	9:18am annie: :)
	9:18am skyline chili: Helloey Joey McGaskoey
	9:20am Mike W.: Handy, the field is drenched (I didn’t do it!), so it’ll be a streets-of-suburbia walk for us this morning. I’m glad you’re at home, safe and dry and mit der animals, several states away.
	9:21am Handy Haversack: Hey, Marley! Thanks! Gray day here. The hound and I will explore it a little soon enough.

	👻 9:35am yerfriendpaul: Good morning Joe, everyone!
	9:39am Mike W.: Joe has the calendar read very accurately, it is AnneBriggsvember for the next four months at least
	9:40am Joe McG: @Mike W: Yes, indeedy!
	9:42am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Beeswing herself. Only read about Anne as some elusive legendary figure.
	👻 9:42am Webhamster Henry: This is an almost Irene-ian set.
	9:42am Handy Haversack: Well, that's good news. Will see us through Smarch. Stephen Merritt's voice sounds a lot like David Wiffin, meseems.
	9:43am Rachel Bo Bachel: Oh Joe the heartstrings- first Anne Briggs and now this song… sudden onset verklemptness is setting in! Good morning!
	👻 9:44am YETI BOB: HH: Sounds like Steven Merritt with more vocal training and well-controlled vibrato
	9:44am Joe McG: @RBR: "Onset verklemptness"! Ha ha
	9:45am TDK60: Lots of good versions of "Four."
	👻 9:45am YETI BOB: @WHH: "Irenic" is actually an adjective www.merriam-webster.com...
	9:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Had to go to wigkey to brush on up Merritt's exact patriarchal situation... remarkable story !
	9:46am skyline chili: @Marley P. Dogg: M P single D, O double good, Marley P. Dogg best to you. So what's the story with Szabo, I'm guessing perhaps your mother's maiden name?
	9:47am Handy Haversack: Hey, Rache!
	9:47am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mentally conflate the names 'Carolyn Hester' & 'Jusy Henske'. This is a serious mistake.
	9:48am Roger: perfect curation for a grey dey
	9:48am steveo: such a grey feeling
	👻 9:49am 12539: Such a rich, multicolored grey.
	👻 9:50am Brian in UK: Hello Jeffrey, oh no sorry. Hey Joe!!!
	👻 9:50am Webhamster Henry: @YETI BO Irene plays Irenic music! Catch the drummer stream at noon today! wfmu.org...
	9:52am Joe McG: I'll take it as flattery that people say I'm channeling Irene and Jeffrey, two WFMU immortals!
	👻 9:52am YETI BO: WHH: It's quite apt, isn't it? "Favoring, conducive to, or operating toward peace, moderation, or conciliation"
	9:52am davefromtoronto: i prefer to wander as i wonder but that's just me.
	9:53am Handy Haversack: This. This is November. Wet boots and rains. Chimney-smoke lanes. Nice one, Joe. Perfect touch.
	👻 9:53am karlward: Yes
	👻 9:53am karlward: Full confidence in this song
	9:53am Speck: What a great show. Love this set.
	9:53am Handy Haversack: karlward knows. Not his first November.
	9:53am TDK60: Yeh Joe, Jeffrey D.'s show was fab. Irene's still is.
	9:54am Colin: Great show today. Thanks!
	👻 9:55am Brian in UK: Theremin or bowed saw? Or neither.
	👻 9:55am YETI BO: Brian: Sounds like saw to me
	9:55am TDK60: Brian in UK: I see it as a saw.
	👻 9:55am Webhamster Henry: This is a bowed saw! I play wrenches, so I should know1
	9:56am steveo: bowed theremin
	9:56am lpfnrobin: Same sound to me but...thats a little out there...
	👻 9:56am YETI BO: Old joke from my Dad: "I see, said the blind carpenter, as he picked up his hammer and saw."
	👻 9:56am Brian in UK: I was favouring a saw.
	9:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh yeah - Waits'd be a saw.
	9:56am Stanley: Brian - I saw it as a theremin
	👻 9:56am YETI BO: Theremin has a purer tone - with the saw you can hear the horsehair a little (if you listen for it)
	9:57am Regina Stargazer: It was a saw. If it is Tom Waits, it's usually garbage turned beautiful instruments ♡
	👻 9:57am Brian in UK: Remember hearing it on the first Flatlanders album.
	9:57am Handy Haversack: There's definitely saw played on the album.
	9:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously - can't move the station to Canada to get Jeffrey Davison back ?
	9:58am Regina Stargazer: Incredible Playlist today, Joe. thank you ♡
	9:58am Handy Haversack: It's the customs duties, Rev Rab. If the station were a canoe, it would be covered by treaty, but they really get you on the tariffs with nonprofit radio stations.
	👻 9:59am YETI BO: " The saw player on this record is Don Neely, a Bay Area musician, who also is the band leader of the Royal Society Jazz Orchestra. " - sawnotes.com...
	9:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...damn Handy. F*ckin' commies...
	👻 9:59am Brian in UK: Webhamster Henry. Thought wrenches were spanners to us. What is a wrench then?
	10:03am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...all in a day's work for - Bicycle RepairMan !!
	👻 10:03am Webhamster Henry: They ARE spanners: Here's something I did with WFMU chatboarder Ranjit: vimeo.com...
	10:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nice video WebHenry ! ...ready for the Holidaze...
	10:05am Mike W.: Before Sharon Van Etten released her first LP she regularly performed solo a cappella around NYC. I remember one particularly moving set at Monkeytown...all 30 or so of us rapt as fuck.
	10:05am steveo: We Release Whatever the Fuck We Want Records
	👻 10:06am karlward: WHAT
	10:06am steveo: lol
	👻 10:08am Brian in UK: Thanks WH.
	10:09am Rachel Bo Bachel: Steveo oh my! Awww love this song super cute cover CP :)
	10:09am Peter K.: For the record, the Bill Evans album you mentioned, “Conversations With Myself” — on which he actually overdubbed himself twice — was recorded eight years after that Lennie Tristano album. Tristano presumably inspired Evans to do what he did, but it took the inspiration a while to take hold.
	10:10am Joe McG: Thanks for the info, steveo! @Mike W.: She sings it beautifully. I mean, it takes a lot of courage to take on Anne Briggs, in my view. She does well! @Peter: I like the Bill Evans record more, but it's cool that Tristano had this inspirational idea!
	👻 10:12am Hughie Considine: Getting a major Warren Zevon "Mutineer" vibe from this rendition...
	👻 10:12am Brian in UK: Gerry is a lot less nasally here.
	10:14am Kaper79: I can hear Shane MacGowan
	10:14am Brendan: Top of the morning to ya, Joe.
	10:14am Stanley: Brian - probably blew his nose good before recording this. I think Gerry Rafferty is an overlooked artist. His work with Rab Noakes is really good.
	👻 10:15am karlward: This is great. I've only ever heard the Frank Black cover from Fast Man Raider Man.
	10:16am Doug in JC: whosampled shows 25 covers of the original
	👻 10:16am Brian in UK: Agree, so is Rab Noakes. Rab gets a mention in an old Lindisfarne song.
	👻 10:16am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning. I'm guessing Baker Street is in some other town?
	10:17am Baja Joe: Good morning Joe.
	10:18am Joe: Listening from Wisconsin Joe. I really enjoy your show.
	👻 10:19am Brian in UK: Salford, where Ewan McColl was born is now cleaned up. The river Irwell running through used to be disgusting.
	10:19am Rachel Bo Bachel: Loving this jangly Pogues tune I’ve never heard before! ❤️
	10:19am Kaper79: Enjoying with all me tender heart !
	10:20am Joe McG: @Stanley: Agree, very overlooked! @Brian: Nice to hear that Salford is a bit less dirty! @Joe and Kaspar: Thanks and great!
	10:21am iron wombat: I thought the Pogues song was the Jazz Butcher. Only to be followed by the Jazz Butcher
	10:22am Andres: ❤️ RIP Jazz Butcher
	👻 10:24am YETI BO: Henry: Are your wrenches (spanners) tuned in equal-temperment or just intonation? Or are they adjustable?
	10:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: BillEvans 'Convo with Myself' famous for exposition of him as Composer utilizing multi-tracking. All in his head like Brian Wilson... Clapton in Cream would do two tracks of bitchen wailing - but Hendrix would genuinely construct things...
	10:29am Phillippe: This Swansea Sound is great! Hey everyone! Hi Handy, YB, RR, Stanley et al
	10:30am efd: Pre-emptively mentioning that HHBTM stands for “Happy Happy Birthday To Me” in case you’re not aware, Joe. Much nicer than WRWTFWW.
	10:31am Joe McG: @EFD: Ha ha, thanks, Evan!
	10:31am Stanley: Hi Phillippio.
	10:32am SeanG: Gerry Rafferty rules all!
	👻 10:32am karlward: @EFD we're going to miss you this week, but I know I'm not the only one who is PSYCHED for the extra Duane Train
	👻 10:32am chresti: Morning Joe and company, listening from the tennis booth in Griffith Park!
	10:33am efd: @karllward I’m psyched for it too!!
	10:33am jt: WRWTFWW!They also have JAZZ swag...
	👻 10:34am Webhamster Henry: @YETI BOB some are imperial, some are metric. You can tine them a little by adjusting the mass with supermagnets, but... why! I hang them by fishing line from a portable drying rack.
	10:35am Handy Haversack: I step out for a moment and miss "Down All the Days"?! Never get off of the boat. Hey, Phillippe!
	10:36am prudy: Yes...how is Shane McGowan still alive? The pickling effect?
	10:36am Rachel Bo Bachel: Handy I didn’t know that one it reminded me of REM a little!
	10:38am xangoir: never been this excited for meatloaf since mama made it
	👻 10:38am YETI BO: Deep Cuts of Meat Loaf!
	10:38am Phillippe: Mr. Loaf
	10:38am Joe McG: @prudy: That documentary "Crock of Gold" is both funny and disturbing at the same time. He's so messed up. @xangoir: This song may change your mind!
	👻 10:39am Brian in UK: YETI BO, go to your room!!!!
	10:39am Son Of Pantz: Reminds me of my wife's meatloaf...stoney.
	10:39am Handy Haversack: Dang, now I have to listen to that Cat Power cover, too. "A Pair of Brown Eyes" is one of my all-time favorite songs. Rache, that whole album is great.
	👻 10:39am karlward: Reminds me of that Kiss song from The Elder, "A World Without Meatloaf"
	10:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WYSIWYG ...not on WRWTFWW. Wull speak of the devil Cream.
	10:41am Krys O.: Wow! Never heard this.
	👻 10:41am chresti: wow these singles!
	10:42am Joe McG: Adding a Latin groove with a hip-hop edge to Cream in 1968 is pretty damned amazing!
	👻 10:42am DjLorraine: Dance floor is like the sea...(not darsblower)
	10:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Works !
	10:47am Krys O.: Watching old Ozzie & Harriet shows was great. When Ricky performed with James Burton backing him up, they always showed Ozzie beaming with joy.
	10:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Usually they had to signal to the Old School by Clowning it Out when the kids Rawked...
	10:49am Joe McG: @Krys: "It's Late" might be a "Wake Up Little Susie" rip-off, but it's a good one!
	10:51am McGroovey: New Colony Six: I have the Sundazed comp that came out in 1993. Why isn't that song on it? I feel cheated!
	👻 10:51am karlward: This is what living in Houston without an air conditioner was like
	👻 10:51am karlward: Oh wait it was nothing like this, now that we're at the chorus
	10:52am efd: #notthatsting
	👻 10:52am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Ugh, just spent an hour locked out of work because of perfect storm of Citrix update, password expiring, and Google Play not letting me disable Play Protect. Happy Monday!
	10:52am Joe McG: Little did anyone know what Sting was up to in his off-time from the Police.
	10:52am skyline chili: WYSIWYG... WRWTFWW ? with the exception of WTF, which I am assuming it is what it is, that's what I'm asking about WTF Is the rest of that junky jive
	👻 10:52am Brian in UK: I'll get the Karcher!
	10:52am Kat in Chicago: I’m not sure what’s more hilarious, the subject matter of this tune, or the fact that it’s attributed to “Sting”
	10:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Sting takes so long with his Tantra that the hot water runs out is the thing...
	10:53am Strandlund: I always heard that Sting sang in the shower...
	👻 10:53am Hughie Considine: His shower is of course a Roman bath...
	10:53am ?: Nice. I made it for "Do It In The Shower" 😄
	10:54am OTB: That was far superior to the majority of Sting's post-police albums.
	10:54am Will: Poor Sting. His burgeoning late-70s career derailed by some other guy named Sting.
	10:55am McGroovey: Janis really wants to crowd all these words in to this song
	10:55am Joe McG: @Will: Ha ha, the ignominy!
	👻 10:55am Hughie Considine: I'd like to hear the other Sting take on "Synchronicity II."
	10:55am Joe McG: @Hughie: Ha ha, he'd sure add some excitement to it.
	👻 10:56am Oxidized: I heard there are Blue Turtle outtakes with the lyric "I hope Russians do it in the shower too" but someone talked him out of it.
	10:58am Joe McG: @Oxidized: Ha ha ha. And then the Loch Ness monster showed up to eat the blue turtles.
	11:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...told ya it was a long shower...
	11:02am Yes: morning everyone
	11:03am Roberto: I swear the hold music for my local pharmacy's phone line sounds like the intro to Geronimo's Cadillac.
	11:05am lpfnrobin: You'd be thinking that we could have custom wait music....but the bots love to work! No music for you 'ya know?
	11:06am Roberto: Cadillac was founded in 1902, so it's possible he was sitting in one.
	11:07am McGroovey: I was confused by Michael Murphy when I was a kid because my friend's older brother was named Michael Murphy. I was also confused by George Wallace because one of my teachers was Mrs Wallace.
	👻 11:07am YETI BO: Skyline: It's a record label, stands for "We Release Whatever The Fuck We Want + We Release Jazz" :-)
	👻 11:08am YETI BO: wrwtfww.com
	👻 11:09am YETI BO: WYSIWYG is an old computing acronym for "What you see is what you get" (meaning, basically, what you see on the screen is the same as what comes out the printer)
	11:10am lpfnrobin: Whizzy Whigs
	👻 11:10am YETI BO: Also, I recall that Camper Van Beethoven had a song called "Joe Stalin's Cadillac"
	11:10am skyline chili: Mucho gracias senor yeti.
	11:13am lpfnrobin: Thats an interesting site YETI, found a thing I need to check in on....if I recall the visuals were so good - you look for any links and follow / wand(t)er a path
	👻 11:13am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Last night my local Trade Fair had one of the many REM Greatest Hits albums on as background music. I felt very old.
	👻 11:13am SEÑOR YETI: De nada, Skyline.
	11:14am steveo: djs doing other djs' theme shows is fun
	11:15am V Priceless: yay Stranglers! Hi Joe!
	👻 11:16am SEÑOR YETI: "New Stranglers Album" is something I never expected to hear
	11:17am skyline chili: Yeti B: I usually don't know what anyone is talking about half the time, so pay no attention to me. Come to think of it i think i owe an explanation to Marley p dogg about something i texted her earlier.
	11:18am Ed: Wow! Stranglers are back with Hugh Cornwall? sadly sans Dave Greenfield. Pencil in that album for x-mas!
	11:18am Joe McG: "This is where your solo would go" kills me.
	👻 11:18am Hughie Considine: This is really wonderful and quietly devastating.
	11:19am Joe McG: @Ed: No Hugh, alas, but still very good.
	👻 11:19am SEÑOR YETI: Skyline: You're fine, you're one of the regulars here
	11:20am DJ Guin: Interesting Fact: The Stranglers' Dave Greenfield was a musical perfectionist and could be awkward in social situations; observations consistent with his diagnosis, never made public during his lifetime, as a very high-functioning autistic.
	11:20am Ed: @joe Dang It sounded like Hugh singing. But hey I'll take that new album none the less.
	11:21am lpfnrobin: I purposely disorganize myself, I eventually find it which is good. Well more than good. Its the only arcane way to find truth....
	11:23am McGroovey: Oops
	11:23am Joe McG: Oopsie!
	11:23am Handy Haversack: Turntable 1? Are you messing with the MP3s? This vengeful streak must end!
	👻 11:23am Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Oh cool! The dance mix!
	11:23am SomeGuy: Whoa. You just Max Hedroom'd the audio feed. Kind of dug it.
	11:23am Joe McG: Extended version!
	11:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...that was where his Solo went...
	11:26am Joe McG: Apologies to Ethan Miller and the gang. Hopefully we'll get a physical copy of this album since I'm better with records than these damned mp3s!
	11:26am lpfnrobin: Wrong as snow in October....I mean are we ready yet?
	11:28am skyline chili: SEÑOR YETI: if you consider me a regular, then all the rest of you must be permanent's. I just don't understand how all you can work, play, eat, and do everything else and maintain staying constantly on the chat. The only thing i can figure is that you all have super multi tri-tasking powers.
	11:28am lpfnrobin: heh
	11:30am V Priceless: @ Ed - no Hugh Cornwell, no Jet Black (retired). Album is quite good - JJ leading the charge.
	11:30am EG_Astro: thank you for playing this song
	11:30am SomeGuy: Great tune but The Silos version is a real banger, as this song should be.
	11:30am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Mr. YETI BOB also maintains 4 simultaneous online chess games. I read that on the Interweb thingie.
	11:31am lpfnrobin: Is this Michaell Hall from John Oats and co??
	👻 11:31am karlward: See this is what the holidays are really about
	11:31am Morgan: hi all, that Stranglers wake song was very moving. @DJGuin have you ever read oliver sachs’ musicophilia? neat case studies of musical phenomena experienced by the neuro-atypical
	11:31am Jason from Houston: Get in, karlward. Let's go.
	11:31am egould310: All of this is really reckless behavior. Be careful fella’s.
	👻 11:32am karlward: Jason I am already parkouring in my truck, a straight line coming right at you
	11:32am Baja Joe: Drugs and driving don't exactly mix well, dontcha' know.
	👻 11:33am SEÑOR YETI: Skyline: Fast fingers and gigabit fiber :) Woods: Actually I'm terrible at chess! I get too distracted. Also go on the offense and miss my own weak spots. A kid could beat me. All: Why does this piano part sound so familiar? What song did Michael Hall crib this from?
	11:33am Jason from Houston: Happy Thanksgiving, boss. See you soon.
	11:33am Stanley: Them were the days!
	11:33am lpfnrobin: Yeah you screw up the Daryl's form the Michaels cause' you cant right now.
	👻 11:33am karlward: "All I Hear is Metal and Motown" is possibly the greatest quote from the 90s
	👻 11:33am SEÑOR YETI: Baja Joe: Depends on the drugs...
	11:35am skyline chili: Woods: I believe it !
	11:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pretty much G-Em-F-G7 - which is most Songs in the 1950s. 1st chord sequence I ever learned - cause someone had written it in ball-point on the gittar I had...
	11:36am lpfnrobin: Known to happen, grease pencils and all, sometimes it takes effort arcane to make the next big thing that thang
	11:36am Handy Haversack: karlward, yeah, that one really landed.
	👻 11:37am SEÑOR YETI: RevRab: Sure, good ol' I-vi-IV-V7 - but, the particular way it was being played, the rhythm and feel of it, sounded a LOT like something else.... it will come to me (maybe)
	11:37am judy from croton: What a song!
	11:38am judy from croton: So relate
	👻 11:39am DjLorraine: Pardon the tangent, is NorthGineaHills ok? I haven't seen a post in awhile
	👻 11:39am SEÑOR YETI: RR: Did you mean something like C-Am-F-G7? Or am I confused?
	11:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Has to be sure not to gain in emphasis or momentum anything... Reminds me of Motern Media somehow...
	11:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeti you're exactly correct.
	11:40am judy from croton: Goosebumps
	11:40am Zephyr: I try to only leave sweet comments but that song should have ended half way.
	11:40am Joe B: thank you Shelto for summing up my life
	11:41am joseloalter: Very beautiful, moving show. Thank you Joe!
	11:41am Handy Haversack: DjLorraine, I was wondering the same thing but did see him post briefly last week. Just can't remember which day now.
	11:41am lpfnrobin: When you wish....what a thing
	11:41am Joe McG: @Joe B: Ha ha ha
	11:43am lpfnrobin: Fading into this...
	11:47am Kotzwinkled: Yesss...Loudon is an underrated king of songwriting.
	11:48am Joe McG: Richard Thompson and BJ Cole on this one.
	11:48am lpfnrobin: Damn song give me indigo eyes.....really waving this air around
	11:48am Roberto: Loudon AKA Capt. Spalding on MAS*H!
	11:49am skyline chili: ♪all I hear is metal and Motown♪I guess that was the case at one time, but not anymore. I don't even think ¾ of today's generation even knows what Motown is, or anything pretty much before 1990
	11:50am lpfnrobin: Beep Boop you are correct %you%
	11:50am DJ Guin: @Morgan - 11:31am -- no, can't say I have, but that is why i love WFMU and the community. i learn something every day.
	11:51am Handy Haversack: The Singing Surgeon, Roberto! Didn't even realize that.
	11:51am Son Of Pantz: Great show today, Joe. Pass the stuffing.
	11:52am joeymargaret: Hi Joe McG, thanks for another week of beautiful music. Happy Thanksgiving!
	11:52am Roberto: Yeah I didn't realize it until I rewatched the series with my daughter recently on Hulu. I remember watching it as a kid but I had no idea who Loudon was at the time.
	11:53am dreamyandseedy: hi joe, wanted to say thank you for playing that Dion song last week, Daddy Rollin, I've played that song every day, multiple times a day ever since! and thanks for the show today :)
	11:53am lpfnrobin: If your asked to hold the celery, let it steep in a fine breakdown before serving. It might never be held back again...just not ripe enough
	11:53am Handy Haversack: Dang, the time sure flies amid all this metal and Motown. Thanks, Joe. Really pitch-perfect show today. Later on, Surfactants.
	11:53am steveo: is it wrong to clicky star a track before it starts?
	👻 11:53am chresti: Thanks Joe!
	11:54am Andres: Thank you, Joe!! A truly beautiful show today.
	11:54am LB: Nice tuneage!
	11:54am steveo: enjoyed listening today, thanks, Joe
	11:54am Son Of Pantz: @lpfnrobin I like the taste of celery but not the texture. I'll take your advice when making my stuffing.
	👻 11:54am 12539: Thanks, Joe!
	11:54am DJ Guin: Psychic Friends Network predicted McGaski would play this song.
	11:54am Joe McG: Hey everybody, thanks for listening and commenting today! I hope you all have a stress-free Thanksgiving, if you celebrate it. See you next week!
	11:55am Stanley: Great listening, once again. Thanks Joe.
	11:56am DJ Guin: @Joe McG - If you're looking for whom stole your Apple Pie on the window sill, tis I!
	11:56am lpfnrobin: Thank you @JoeMcG!
	11:57am lpfnrobin: Never enough time....:)
	11:57am DJ Guin: happythanksgiving Joe and friends!
	👻 11:57am karlward: Not sure if that is true
	👻 11:57am karlward: I don't think a turkey can be a friend to anyone
	11:57am Yes: thank you joe!
	11:57am Stevel: With friends like that…
	11:58am lpfnrobin: Stuffing!!!
	👻 11:58am DjLorraine: Happy thanksgiving wfmu staff and listeners
	11:58am egould310: Friends. But never lovers.
	11:58am skyline chili: ♪hahahaha, heyyyyo, goobagoobagooba♪
	11:58am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY As Ever DJ JoeMcG ~
	11:58am Listener Robert: Hmmm...I call that a pre-emptive strike on Jim Price. Michele's away right? Got to go to the top with that complaint.
	11:59am Handy Haversack: Going over an index MS, and I think there's a subentry here of particular interest to WFMUers.
