	9:36am north guinea hills: i need to put a moratorium on supporting my local record stores so i can pay my taxes (i've been splurging a lot on vinyl lately anyways). as for my record shopping, i never go in w/ pre-conceived notions of what i want, and i refuse to listen to any thing before i buy..... it works 90% of the time...
	9:36am trouble: thanks listener mark for pointing out my typo: i meant pastoral abandonment...
	9:36am jaypee: Oh, thank goodness, Trouble. I feel much better now. As do my ears.
	9:37am listener mark: oh trouble, there are so many books in my house, I can't fit records. I do have CDs wedged in strategic places to prevent book slides.

	9:45am north guinea hills: my gf wants me to stop buying recs as i've run out of shelf space and my flat is already cluttered w/ piles of various media precarious stacked and wedged in various shelfs and under tables. i might have to make a sliding shelf system in the near future, since we all know i won't stop buying books or records...

	9:48am The Great White Whale: Annie... are there? Or are you in trouble! huh?

	9:53am listener mark: annie, author?
	9:55am annie: mark t'were so simple... alas all i have is a synopsis. very memorable story and lovely title, but it all escapes me except the story..

	10:02am Cecile: Good morning!

	10:05am Baba B: I learned that as "the good lord giveth and the landlord taketh away."
	10:06am annie: they have new turntables? wow.. nice. it was all hartwick could do to keep up the one turntable they have.. it one of the reasons why i stopped deejaying. my shows were 85% vinyl.
	10:06am lt: live from the biodome

	10:08am GP: It..say hi to Pauly for me.
	10:08am trouble: thanks cecile!
	10:09am annie: mark, i think the book was paperback so it must have been remaindered. it was about 7-10 years ago...ish..
	10:09am The Great White Whale: Annie... Sounds like you got birds in your bonnet? I love birds! Ever so thirsty you wanted to drink Canada Dry? It will be an honor to have you as my guest.

	10:13am annie: wow!!!! woohoo you did it! oh thanks. how did you do it? and how many years was i off?
	10:13am Cecile: Let me know if you come up short, Trouble. I might end up with more than one copy.
	10:13am listener mark: would've had it sooner but I was outside chasing the squirrel from the bird feeder
	10:14am The Great White Whale: Annie...Nice mix,indeed! You get the Good Housekeeping Seal Of Approval! lol Keep up the interest! winks GWW
	10:16am listener mark: I've nothing against the squirrel, but two pairs of pileated woodpeckers feed there. The birds are protected by law. So you see it's a matter of legalities.
	10:16am squirrel: I will always win. Always.
	10:16am The Great White Whale: Annie... Any NICO Velvet Underground? Need to get some pop for a change! GWW
	10:17am Cecile: wow, everything I've heard from Grouper is just lovely
	10:18am annie: no, but lots of lou reed . velvet underground is on cd.. not alot.
	10:19am The Great White Whale: Waiting for my woodpecker friends anyday now. The feeder is ready! They haven't called me yet. I'm a little worried. Maybe they will text me soon. GWW
	10:19am north guinea hills: grouper now does "songs"?! the only album i have from them is mostly albient stasis w/ traces of slowdive's curlicue whispers....
	10:20am listener mark: Oh squirrel I will fight you on the beaches. I will fight you in the fields. I will fight you in the towns and villages. I will never surrender!
	10:21am The Great White Whale: Annie... LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!!! Thanks! I'm all ears sister! GWW
	10:22am jaypee: TGWW, ooooo, more bird talk! I saw a Meadowlark last weekend, first I've seen in years!
	10:23am GP: <delayed comment> I don't know anyone who likes Burger King...no food snob here..I eat almost anything as long as it is not moving...but HATE Burger King.....their commercials don't help either.
	10:23am Scottish Terrier: Listener Mark, I approve of your message.
	10:23am The Great White Whale: jaypee. excellent! good eye! keep peeking! GWW
	10:24am jaypee: And here's a tip to keep squirrels out of your bird feeders: cayenne pepper powder. The hot stuff. Mix it in with the seed so that it's all covered with the powder. The birds don't notice the heat, but squirrels can't handle it. Caution: be careful when mixing! Inhaling pepper powder is like getting pepper sprayed.
	10:24am still b/p: Stasis With Traces. Your Thurs. morning GNFAB, or at least a GNFAS.
	10:24am Squirrel McSquirrelson: Do ya think ya kin defeat me ya wee laddie? I laugh in your direction.
	10:25am The Great White Whale: Annie... Virginia swamps calling! GWW
	10:26am annie: i just saw a story about the city-fication of tysons corner!
	10:27am The Great White Whale: Thanks for the tip Jaypee!
	10:27am Cajun Squirrel: Cayenne pepper, whoo eee, load it up in dere, That is jus gettin warm for me.
	10:28am Scottish Terrier: My mighty teeth are a big as a German Shepherd's and my bark is as loud as one, too. And, aye, I'm not afraid to make you a snack with my kibble! So, step orf, you long-tailed rat.
	10:28am The Great White Whale: I hear ya Annie. Actually I'm near the mountains! Love that mountain air and I'm on a flyway too! Lot's of birds! GWW
	10:30am The Great White Whale: Annie... Somebody sick there? GWW
	10:31am fishmonkeystew: Ah, squirrel talk. I've been slowly depleting the population in my neighborhood. Not that I really want to. I like squirrels, but their eating my garage and eyeballing my house. I tried to get a squirrel treaty signed, but they laughed in my face...
	10:31am annie: healthy as horses gww. i lived in bluemont area long ago..worked in leesburg
	10:31am still b/p: I intermittenly attempt to establish a cayenne pepper perimeter on the rail of my deck to protect plants from pitiless diggers -- wondering if the neighbors think there's some warlock bizness up when I do the sprinkle.
	10:31am The Great White Whale: Annie... No Lou Reed? :(
	10:32am north guinea hills: is this a relatively recent pharoah? who'd think i'd hear a terry riley piece and a pharoah sanders piece i've never heard before in the same show....
	10:33am The Great White Whale: Wow Annie.. we are closer than we think! lol GWW
	10:33am annie: we have a collection of chipmunks here. not many squirrels, lots of rabbits, but the owls are having a feast.. gww. only two on vinyl
	10:33am still b/p: ..and some -- squirrels, not warlocks -- have homesteaded in the eaves for years, but that's the landlord's challenge.
	10:34am listener mark: two legs good four legs bad out with squirrels!
	10:34am Ian: I'm diggin' this Pharoah Sanders, no sax and he's still awesome.
	10:35am GP: Now we know their secret: http://tiny.cc/Squirrley
	10:35am The Great White Whale: Annie... I was a Middleburger for a spell. Now in Rappahannock County? You on a bathroom break or something? lol gww
	10:35am fishmonkeystew: I once found a recipe for squirrel pie in a nice acorn flour crust.....I didn't try it.
	10:35am annie: we have mouse inside the walls of our house. and i think i watched a raccoon crawl down the back wall of the house, late at night and clumbering slowly.
	10:35am Scottish Terrier: four legs bad, lad? Ay, ye might need to rephrase that.
	10:36am annie: hhhmm acorn flour crust... i'll take possum though
	10:37am Cecile: yeah, those suckers are bitter. that's post-apocaplyptic restarting the civilization desperation dinner.
	10:37am The Great White Whale: Annie... You can bring vinyl if you wish! Find an air slot for you for sure as a guest dj ok? GWW richful@hotmail.com
	10:39am mouse: are the birds outside noisier than the birds inside? maybe! (chilltown jc)
	10:39am annie: i'll email you gww.
	10:41am The Great White Whale: Annie... OK! If I ever get up your way maybe I can sit in and try to be as cool! hehehe GWW
	10:42am annie: i don't dj anymore ....wish i did
	10:43am The Great White Whale: Annie.. You pretty mellow this am but that's fine! I am slo grrovin' and movin' with the beat! Whoo hooo! GWW Happy Day!! :)
	10:44am annie: i'm getting some work done. emailing etc.... and trouble's show is helpin me concentrate
	10:45am The Great White Whale: Annie... Don't dj anymore? huh? You got board operator? Tell me it's not true! huh? GWW
	10:45am fishmonkeystew: mmmmm...Possum pie... This year we bought 3 new bird feeders. The birds have been so loud that when we go for a walk down the street, you can hear a loud racket coming from my yard. All week we've had turkeys (1 tom and 2 hens) hanging out, too. Neato!
	10:46am dale: the hidden door is remarkably akin to the Persuaders theme by John Barry
	10:47am jaypee: This song reminds me of something that would be on the soundtrack for TheNeverEnding Story.
	10:48am annie: fms- the turkey up here are everywhere now and the fields are full of deer and young. i love watching the turkeys strut.. and gww. i am not close enough to a radio station to do shows anymore, i get my vicarious thrills listening to great djs on stations like this..
	10:48am The Great White Whale: Annie... I'm outta here! Got to get some work done! Ugh! Been a blast! Thanks! Write! Great show! Peace! GWWHRW-FM Rich :) waves
	10:50am listener mark: Sorry Scot Terrier. Squirrel has me,... squirrelly. This particular squirrel has eaten a lot of suet cake. If I frighten it enough it might have a heart attack.
	10:51am fishmonkeystew: Annie-we've been seeing LOADS of turkeys up and down the street out here (N.E. CT). My wife and I counted 40 in one flock, all spread out across the road. They could care less if there's a car beeping its horn at them. Just take their time crossing. It's a hoot. Well, I'm off to West Haven. I wish I could take you all with me. Laters.
	10:53am Scottish Terrier: Apology accepted, lad! Ah, suet cake! suet pudding! That will put some fat on ye for the winter! I can't say I blame the bugger for swipin' that. But, yes, those fluff-tails are wee mangy bastards.
	10:53am listener mark: this dj mehdi is great I just pushed volume to 11
	10:54am Cecile: There are a couple of Tiger Sushi places here in MN. Completely strange, inauthenic sushi, but also extremely delicious. And yes, LM, this has a great cruisin' deep house/movie theme going on.
	10:55am annie: mark, how did you find the book so fast?
	10:55am listener mark: stereo's red lining there is an error message!
	10:56am listener mark: annie, I buy and sell books part time.
	10:58am annie: i'm impressed you found it so quickly. greatly appreciated. now i have to locate a copy..
	10:58am annie: pocket piano is great!
	11:04am dc pat: I hope the pocket piano dies a fiery, horrible death...
	11:04am Cecile: that film is very, very strange. I watched it completely straight.
	11:05am annie: what was the movie?
	11:06am dc pat: I like when they get all wet and foamy..
	11:06am Bill W: Hello, Mary Lou! The Criterion DVD comes with the novel, which is a little mores traightforward.
	11:08am trouble: the movie is called The man who fell to earth by nicholas roeg. The "mary lou" character was a film invention, she was not connceted romantically to bowie's character in the novel...thankfully. yikes!
	11:09am Laurie: That His Name Is Alive member you mentioned... Is it the fellow who plays that weird accordion like thing? And he plays with Tara Jane O'Neil as well? PS: There's a little red cardinal and his girlfriend hopping around in the angel's trumpet bush outside my window. My little calico cat is sitting in the window, watching.
	11:10am annie: oohh, i saw that loong ago, perhaps a revisit is in order..
	11:11am north guinea hills: i almost forgot how much i enjoy this show. i just procured the whole blood & fire recs back catalogue and have been listening to an album or three first thing in the morning at work the last 3 months. now i've finished blood & fire, i can enjoy no longer having trouble-free mornings (and other morning wfmu dj's).
	11:13am Cecile: I find with Nick Roeg movies that I am usually befuddled while watching them, but they resonate and haunt long after they've finished. Except for "Man" which was just silly, IMO.
	11:15am trouble: this film made "performance" look like a disney flick...very dark
	11:17am trouble: ngh: you can now work your way through the bullwackies catalog. there was an interesting article in monday or tuesday's times about the label
	11:19am 55ffrr: What was the Roeg film with Theresa Russell & Art Garfunkle? That one was odd as well.
	11:19am Cecile: walkabout is the one that really knocks me for a loop.
	11:20am Cecile: Track 29, never saw it, but I remember crap like that.
	11:20am annie: i could see that movie over and over cecile. jennie aggutter was great in that. have you read the book?
	11:20am north guinea hills: trouble, i do have a bit from wackies (the i dub ny kids throw me stuff every now and them), but i dearly need to take a break from all things dub for a few months. i will look up that article tonight, thought thanks! it would be nice to support what is now a local label, anyhoo.
	11:22am Cecile: No, was there a book? Gotta look that up!
	11:23am annie: there are explanations in the book for the boy's odd behavior.
	11:24am still b/p: I remember that a second or third viewing of the Man Who Fell to Earth lowers the frustration/bafflement factor of first viewing, because what's unclear matters less, and the elements that are entertaining can just be taken as they come.
	11:25am dc pat: if you don't like this oh sees song, then as far a I'm concerned, you've got spit for blood...
	11:25am Cecile: oh, ok. I could kind of guess why. I like that movie because it could SO not get made today. And it's like nothing else. I miss the bittersweet/dark parts of 70s cinema quite a bit.
	11:25am annie: i'm gonna watch that tonight..
	11:26am Cecile: still b/p, I should probably give it another chance dcp, i have coffee for blood, but love that song.
	11:26am annie: it all focusses on the concept of the walkabout for the young man but spills over into the girl's behavior as well. yeah i'm watching "man" tonight
	11:27am listener mark: trader joe's has a great fair trade organic bolivian blend that's great
	11:29am dc pat: speaking of walkabout, did you ever watch Walkabout?
	11:29am N by N again: Ya down with OBB?
	11:30am Cecile: I got a big can of that from my sister for Christmas. Now I'm working on a lovely house blend from Twin Lakes Coffee in Twin Lakes, MI. The guy is a fanatic. and the place is located in the middle of nowhere. Is there another Walkabout than the Walkabout we were talking about?
	11:31am Matt: Wow, I love the Mr. Scruff tune. It sounds very Kruder-and-Dorfmeister-ish
	11:31am annie: coffee roasters are a breed among themselves.
	11:33am dc pat: sorry, popping in and out. Didn't realize it was already mentioned...
	11:33am GP: 2 coffee plants near me.Man, what a wonderful smell when they are cooking their goods!
	11:35am Cecile: yeah, we were really digging it. Now i have to find the book.
	11:37am annie: small little book cecile, easily found in any used book shop. let me know when you do read it. would love to hear your thoughts
	11:38am Cecile: i sure will.
	11:42am zoot: The one with Art Garfunkel and Theresa Russell was Bad Timing. Track 29 featured Theresa Russell and Gary Oldman. You also might want to check out Insignificance, a very interesting Roeg talkie.
	11:42am annie: i keep thinkin i'm gonna turn around and watch a bear traipse through the land here.
	11:42am listener mark: By the end of "this is the modern world" listener comments side bar just jumps back and forth
	11:45am Cecile: Oh, zoot, you are right. I just mixed that up. thank you.
	11:46am Roosevelt Franklin: A bear eats bear food
	11:47am Johnny Crow: ......And the bear had nothing to wear.
	11:48am trrrriihs: zut alors!
	11:48am dc pat: ..the BEAR sang a sentimental AIR, you clown!
	11:49am dc pat: oh man prince rama--time to feel weird..
	11:49am listener mark: several cups of coffee adds to the effect of the jumping back and forth, this is interesting music
	11:53am Cecile: Rama sounds like it's from this crazy alternate universe 70s
	11:54am annie: trouble, great show today.. thanks....
	11:54am jt: This Prince Rama was just here yesterday... Not complainin' just sayin'
	11:59am north guinea hills: trouble is a radio show
	12:00pm listener mark: great show today trouble thank you

This Is The Modern World with Trouble: Playlist from April 16, 2009

View Trouble's profile

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

	9:36am north guinea hills: i need to put a moratorium on supporting my local record stores so i can pay my taxes (i've been splurging a lot on vinyl lately anyways). as for my record shopping, i never go in w/ pre-conceived notions of what i want, and i refuse to listen to any thing before i buy..... it works 90% of the time...
	9:36am trouble: thanks listener mark for pointing out my typo: i meant pastoral abandonment...
	9:36am jaypee: Oh, thank goodness, Trouble. I feel much better now. As do my ears.

	10:14am The Great White Whale: Annie...Nice mix,indeed! You get the Good Housekeeping Seal Of Approval! lol Keep up the interest! winks GWW
	10:16am listener mark: I've nothing against the squirrel, but two pairs of pileated woodpeckers feed there. The birds are protected by law. So you see it's a matter of legalities.
	10:16am squirrel: I will always win. Always.
	10:16am The Great White Whale: Annie... Any NICO Velvet Underground? Need to get some pop for a change! GWW

	10:19am north guinea hills: grouper now does "songs"?! the only album i have from them is mostly albient stasis w/ traces of slowdive's curlicue whispers....
	10:20am listener mark: Oh squirrel I will fight you on the beaches. I will fight you in the fields. I will fight you in the towns and villages. I will never surrender!
	10:21am The Great White Whale: Annie... LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!!! Thanks! I'm all ears sister! GWW
	10:22am jaypee: TGWW, ooooo, more bird talk! I saw a Meadowlark last weekend, first I've seen in years!
	10:23am GP: <delayed comment> I don't know anyone who likes Burger King...no food snob here..I eat almost anything as long as it is not moving...but HATE Burger King.....their commercials don't help either.
	10:23am Scottish Terrier: Listener Mark, I approve of your message.
	10:23am The Great White Whale: jaypee. excellent! good eye! keep peeking! GWW
	10:24am jaypee: And here's a tip to keep squirrels out of your bird feeders: cayenne pepper powder. The hot stuff. Mix it in with the seed so that it's all covered with the powder. The birds don't notice the heat, but squirrels can't handle it. Caution: be careful when mixing! Inhaling pepper powder is like getting pepper sprayed.
	10:24am still b/p: Stasis With Traces. Your Thurs. morning GNFAB, or at least a GNFAS.
	10:24am Squirrel McSquirrelson: Do ya think ya kin defeat me ya wee laddie? I laugh in your direction.

	10:28am The Great White Whale: I hear ya Annie. Actually I'm near the mountains! Love that mountain air and I'm on a flyway too! Lot's of birds! GWW
	10:30am The Great White Whale: Annie... Somebody sick there? GWW
	10:31am fishmonkeystew: Ah, squirrel talk. I've been slowly depleting the population in my neighborhood. Not that I really want to. I like squirrels, but their eating my garage and eyeballing my house. I tried to get a squirrel treaty signed, but they laughed in my face...
	10:31am annie: healthy as horses gww. i lived in bluemont area long ago..worked in leesburg
	10:31am still b/p: I intermittenly attempt to establish a cayenne pepper perimeter on the rail of my deck to protect plants from pitiless diggers -- wondering if the neighbors think there's some warlock bizness up when I do the sprinkle.
	10:31am The Great White Whale: Annie... No Lou Reed? :(
	10:32am north guinea hills: is this a relatively recent pharoah? who'd think i'd hear a terry riley piece and a pharoah sanders piece i've never heard before in the same show....
	10:33am The Great White Whale: Wow Annie.. we are closer than we think! lol GWW
	10:33am annie: we have a collection of chipmunks here. not many squirrels, lots of rabbits, but the owls are having a feast.. gww. only two on vinyl
	10:33am still b/p: ..and some -- squirrels, not warlocks -- have homesteaded in the eaves for years, but that's the landlord's challenge.
	10:34am listener mark: two legs good four legs bad out with squirrels!
	10:34am Ian: I'm diggin' this Pharoah Sanders, no sax and he's still awesome.
	10:35am GP: Now we know their secret: http://tiny.cc/Squirrley
	10:35am The Great White Whale: Annie... I was a Middleburger for a spell. Now in Rappahannock County? You on a bathroom break or something? lol gww
	10:35am fishmonkeystew: I once found a recipe for squirrel pie in a nice acorn flour crust.....I didn't try it.
	10:35am annie: we have mouse inside the walls of our house. and i think i watched a raccoon crawl down the back wall of the house, late at night and clumbering slowly.
	10:35am Scottish Terrier: four legs bad, lad? Ay, ye might need to rephrase that.
	10:36am annie: hhhmm acorn flour crust... i'll take possum though
	10:37am Cecile: yeah, those suckers are bitter. that's post-apocaplyptic restarting the civilization desperation dinner.
	10:37am The Great White Whale: Annie... You can bring vinyl if you wish! Find an air slot for you for sure as a guest dj ok? GWW richful@hotmail.com
	10:39am mouse: are the birds outside noisier than the birds inside? maybe! (chilltown jc)
	10:39am annie: i'll email you gww.
	10:41am The Great White Whale: Annie... OK! If I ever get up your way maybe I can sit in and try to be as cool! hehehe GWW
	10:42am annie: i don't dj anymore ....wish i did
	10:43am The Great White Whale: Annie.. You pretty mellow this am but that's fine! I am slo grrovin' and movin' with the beat! Whoo hooo! GWW Happy Day!! :)
	10:44am annie: i'm getting some work done. emailing etc.... and trouble's show is helpin me concentrate
	10:45am The Great White Whale: Annie... Don't dj anymore? huh? You got board operator? Tell me it's not true! huh? GWW
	10:45am fishmonkeystew: mmmmm...Possum pie... This year we bought 3 new bird feeders. The birds have been so loud that when we go for a walk down the street, you can hear a loud racket coming from my yard. All week we've had turkeys (1 tom and 2 hens) hanging out, too. Neato!
	10:46am dale: the hidden door is remarkably akin to the Persuaders theme by John Barry
	10:47am jaypee: This song reminds me of something that would be on the soundtrack for TheNeverEnding Story.
	10:48am annie: fms- the turkey up here are everywhere now and the fields are full of deer and young. i love watching the turkeys strut.. and gww. i am not close enough to a radio station to do shows anymore, i get my vicarious thrills listening to great djs on stations like this..
	10:48am The Great White Whale: Annie... I'm outta here! Got to get some work done! Ugh! Been a blast! Thanks! Write! Great show! Peace! GWWHRW-FM Rich :) waves
	10:50am listener mark: Sorry Scot Terrier. Squirrel has me,... squirrelly. This particular squirrel has eaten a lot of suet cake. If I frighten it enough it might have a heart attack.
	10:51am fishmonkeystew: Annie-we've been seeing LOADS of turkeys up and down the street out here (N.E. CT). My wife and I counted 40 in one flock, all spread out across the road. They could care less if there's a car beeping its horn at them. Just take their time crossing. It's a hoot. Well, I'm off to West Haven. I wish I could take you all with me. Laters.
	10:53am Scottish Terrier: Apology accepted, lad! Ah, suet cake! suet pudding! That will put some fat on ye for the winter! I can't say I blame the bugger for swipin' that. But, yes, those fluff-tails are wee mangy bastards.
	10:53am listener mark: this dj mehdi is great I just pushed volume to 11
	10:54am Cecile: There are a couple of Tiger Sushi places here in MN. Completely strange, inauthenic sushi, but also extremely delicious. And yes, LM, this has a great cruisin' deep house/movie theme going on.
	10:55am annie: mark, how did you find the book so fast?
	10:55am listener mark: stereo's red lining there is an error message!
	10:56am listener mark: annie, I buy and sell books part time.
	10:58am annie: i'm impressed you found it so quickly. greatly appreciated. now i have to locate a copy..
	10:58am annie: pocket piano is great!
	11:04am dc pat: I hope the pocket piano dies a fiery, horrible death...
	11:04am Cecile: that film is very, very strange. I watched it completely straight.
	11:05am annie: what was the movie?
	11:06am dc pat: I like when they get all wet and foamy..
	11:06am Bill W: Hello, Mary Lou! The Criterion DVD comes with the novel, which is a little mores traightforward.
	11:08am trouble: the movie is called The man who fell to earth by nicholas roeg. The "mary lou" character was a film invention, she was not connceted romantically to bowie's character in the novel...thankfully. yikes!
	11:09am Laurie: That His Name Is Alive member you mentioned... Is it the fellow who plays that weird accordion like thing? And he plays with Tara Jane O'Neil as well? PS: There's a little red cardinal and his girlfriend hopping around in the angel's trumpet bush outside my window. My little calico cat is sitting in the window, watching.
	11:10am annie: oohh, i saw that loong ago, perhaps a revisit is in order..
	11:11am north guinea hills: i almost forgot how much i enjoy this show. i just procured the whole blood & fire recs back catalogue and have been listening to an album or three first thing in the morning at work the last 3 months. now i've finished blood & fire, i can enjoy no longer having trouble-free mornings (and other morning wfmu dj's).
	11:13am Cecile: I find with Nick Roeg movies that I am usually befuddled while watching them, but they resonate and haunt long after they've finished. Except for "Man" which was just silly, IMO.
	11:15am trouble: this film made "performance" look like a disney flick...very dark
	11:17am trouble: ngh: you can now work your way through the bullwackies catalog. there was an interesting article in monday or tuesday's times about the label
	11:19am 55ffrr: What was the Roeg film with Theresa Russell & Art Garfunkle? That one was odd as well.
	11:19am Cecile: walkabout is the one that really knocks me for a loop.
	11:20am Cecile: Track 29, never saw it, but I remember crap like that.
	11:20am annie: i could see that movie over and over cecile. jennie aggutter was great in that. have you read the book?
	11:20am north guinea hills: trouble, i do have a bit from wackies (the i dub ny kids throw me stuff every now and them), but i dearly need to take a break from all things dub for a few months. i will look up that article tonight, thought thanks! it would be nice to support what is now a local label, anyhoo.
	11:22am Cecile: No, was there a book? Gotta look that up!
	11:23am annie: there are explanations in the book for the boy's odd behavior.
	11:24am still b/p: I remember that a second or third viewing of the Man Who Fell to Earth lowers the frustration/bafflement factor of first viewing, because what's unclear matters less, and the elements that are entertaining can just be taken as they come.
	11:25am dc pat: if you don't like this oh sees song, then as far a I'm concerned, you've got spit for blood...
	11:25am Cecile: oh, ok. I could kind of guess why. I like that movie because it could SO not get made today. And it's like nothing else. I miss the bittersweet/dark parts of 70s cinema quite a bit.
	11:25am annie: i'm gonna watch that tonight..
	11:26am Cecile: still b/p, I should probably give it another chance dcp, i have coffee for blood, but love that song.
	11:26am annie: it all focusses on the concept of the walkabout for the young man but spills over into the girl's behavior as well. yeah i'm watching "man" tonight
	11:27am listener mark: trader joe's has a great fair trade organic bolivian blend that's great
	11:29am dc pat: speaking of walkabout, did you ever watch Walkabout?
	11:29am N by N again: Ya down with OBB?
	11:30am Cecile: I got a big can of that from my sister for Christmas. Now I'm working on a lovely house blend from Twin Lakes Coffee in Twin Lakes, MI. The guy is a fanatic. and the place is located in the middle of nowhere. Is there another Walkabout than the Walkabout we were talking about?
	11:31am Matt: Wow, I love the Mr. Scruff tune. It sounds very Kruder-and-Dorfmeister-ish
	11:31am annie: coffee roasters are a breed among themselves.
	11:33am dc pat: sorry, popping in and out. Didn't realize it was already mentioned...
	11:33am GP: 2 coffee plants near me.Man, what a wonderful smell when they are cooking their goods!
	11:35am Cecile: yeah, we were really digging it. Now i have to find the book.
	11:37am annie: small little book cecile, easily found in any used book shop. let me know when you do read it. would love to hear your thoughts
	11:38am Cecile: i sure will.
	11:42am zoot: The one with Art Garfunkel and Theresa Russell was Bad Timing. Track 29 featured Theresa Russell and Gary Oldman. You also might want to check out Insignificance, a very interesting Roeg talkie.
	11:42am annie: i keep thinkin i'm gonna turn around and watch a bear traipse through the land here.
	11:42am listener mark: By the end of "this is the modern world" listener comments side bar just jumps back and forth
	11:45am Cecile: Oh, zoot, you are right. I just mixed that up. thank you.
	11:46am Roosevelt Franklin: A bear eats bear food
	11:47am Johnny Crow: ......And the bear had nothing to wear.
	11:48am trrrriihs: zut alors!
	11:48am dc pat: ..the BEAR sang a sentimental AIR, you clown!
	11:49am dc pat: oh man prince rama--time to feel weird..
	11:49am listener mark: several cups of coffee adds to the effect of the jumping back and forth, this is interesting music
	11:53am Cecile: Rama sounds like it's from this crazy alternate universe 70s
	11:54am annie: trouble, great show today.. thanks....
	11:54am jt: This Prince Rama was just here yesterday... Not complainin' just sayin'
	11:59am north guinea hills: trouble is a radio show
	12:00pm listener mark: great show today trouble thank you
