	9:30am Adrian in London: @brian Yes, I've been to RTE many times. They've got plenty of lovely vinyl, and a cafe.
	9:30am glenn: trouble for pope in 2013!
	9:32am braveness23: Fear not about the whole pope issue. I have offered my services as the next pope. Still waiting for clarification on whether me not being catholic is a deal breaker.
	9:33am Mike Yahwak: whats up with the blog? It uses to updated daily now nothing for a bout 2 weeks?
	9:34am northguineahills: There was a post-rock band on Rephlex Recs called Jones. Also hard to google.
	9:37am braveness23: We were about to have our chickens slaughtered because they stopped laying about 6 months ago. They must have heard us talking about it because last weekend we heard the ruckus than can only mean one thing - a freshly laid egg. Two of the girls kicked in gear in the 11th hour and started laying again.
	9:39am Magda: Good Morning Everyone, Happy Tuesday!
	9:40am Brian in UK: @B23 Interesting if the man from Ghana gets the nod when the smoke blows. Cannot see it. Do not hold your breath waiting clarification. Only 11 million in this world. Funny ours stopped pre-Xmas, then kicked off again recently.
	9:41am listener mark: Good morning. When chickens are outlawed, only outlaws will have chickens.
	9:42am Magda: Best jam from the artist formerly known as most def.
	9:43am Cheri Pi: I listened to this album 2x last week :)

	9:50am northguineahills: lol, Van.
	9:52am βrian: Hello from the cold and dreary isthmus.
	9:55am jcp: Nice artwork on the playlist page...what is that?
	9:58am kevin: I think the cd is skipping. Please check into it.
	9:59am Snortley: jcp: Ellen Gallagher
	9:59am Trouble: o artwork! thanks for reminding me! that piece is by ellen gallagher, one of my favorite artists...
	10:00am Trouble: through the month of february i am putting up an artwork a day on the facebook page for this is the modern world: www.facebook.com...
	10:06am Magdalena: I think it might be Fela on that mos def track.
	10:08am Trouble: thank you magdalena, that totally makes sense if it is...
	10:09am specksnyder: Good morning all! Thanks for all the great art, trouble. And the music too, of course.
	10:10am Trouble: your welcome specksnyder, my pleasure!
	10:10am Magdalena: Your Welcome. I vaguely recognize it from a documentary I watched on Netflix about him.
	10:14am northguineahills: Crap, another Lee Perry comp I need to acquire.
	10:14am Cheri Pi: Nice interview last night on NPR w Francis Falceto(Curator of Ethiopiques). Inspired me to revisit my goal of collecting 'em all: www.theworld.org...
	10:17am northguineahills: @Cheri Pi: There are like 22, right? I only have four of them. I suppose digital downloads would have to suffice for me. Thanks for the link.
	10:17am northguineahills: Nope, I'm way off, there are at least 28.
	10:19am Cheri Pi: I can't believe there are 28!!
	10:19am Detroit Mac: Stop - Drop - Roll'em.
	10:21am emily: hey trouble, great morning mix! keep those chix safe from the fuzz! emily
	10:24am Trouble: thanks for the info cheri pi, that interview sounds great! thanks emily!!!
	10:31am Trouble: saw this video and was charmedwww.youtube.com...
	10:33am tim from champaign: When is this Jessie Ware track from? I like the pitch tweeked keyboard sound.
	10:34am Cheri Pi: I like this smooth, sweet stuff. Yesterday I came home to the D'Angelo reissue waiting patiently for me in the mailbox. It's nice to come home to D'Angelo..
	10:34am Trouble: it's brand new out of the UK, tim
	10:35am Trouble: she has a little of the sade vibe for sure
	10:35am tim from champaign: It reminds me of more recent His Name Is Alive. Thanks Trouble.
	10:36am northguineahills: I don't think I've heard anything from HNIA since about 2003.
	10:43am Sugarfly Waterloo: Another pleasant morning with Trouble
	10:44am listener mark: Cool, Eno for a Tuesday morning!
	10:44am ken in denver: Hard to remove this Eno track from its Trainspotting context, unfortunately
	10:45am Trouble: thank you sugarfly waterloo, i aim to please!
	10:46am pezonik: Hey Trouble. Did you see this video about printing meat? I think many vegetarians may find it nice. www.youtube.com...
	10:46am tim from champaign: NGH, check out Detrola from 2006. It's one of my top records of the 2000s decade. HNIA also did an excellent tribute to Marion Brown around 2008 or so.
	10:50am Jennique: Mornin' Trouble & friends. Just poppin' in from home today so I will have to go back and listen to the archives. I see you played Mos Def "Quiet Dog". Shout out to Westminster, yo? Went yesterday, good times. Curious to see who wins Best in Show.
	10:52am Trouble: so true pezonik!
	10:53am Trouble: o yes jennique! it is the most important time in NYC, the dog show! i would love to visit one year...
	10:54am v k: Mogwai remix v nice - listen to 'Letters from the Metro' multiple times per week - nice song to get lost in
	10:55am Brian in UK: Love the last line 'If the chain don't break'
	10:57am Parq: Mad Magazine's Jack Rickard did the cover for that Sailcat hit: 1.bp.blogspot.com...
	10:58am listener mark: motorcycle mama, I can remember when this was released, 1972! I need a rocking chair.
	11:07am braveness23: Love this song 'holocaust '
	11:07am Van in DC: Kind of a This Mortal Coil sound, eh?
	11:08am Ike: You mentioned Clockwork Orange. I just saw Clockwork Orange for the first time and I thought it was lame and WAAAAAY overrated but I'm not a Kubrick fan. Dude had a heart of solid black ice. There is nobody to like in any of his films except for the most psychotic, murderous characters -- Alex in C.O., HAL in 2001.
	11:09am tim from champaign: I'd rate Holocaust as one of the heaviest songs ever.
	11:11am v k: originally by Big Star - had no idea
	11:12am ffrr: Shelly Winters in 'Lolita' is so memorable as to be likeable. Hi T.
	11:13am Trouble: big star wrote it in 74, released in 78. this mortal coil and rainy day versions were released in 84...
	11:14am Brian in UK: @Ike. Kubrick is no Mr Chuckles but CO is of its time. Your opinion might be different if you saw it at the cinerma in '69. Ever read Burgess' book?
	11:16am v k: a more contemporary cover of 'holocaust' is echoing in my head but can't place the artist - help?
	11:18am Ike: @Brian, no, and a friend likes the movie because he links it to the book, but I can only judge based on what I saw on the screen. The victims all being marginalized or portrayed as upper-class jerks was awful -- my friend says that's because it's all Alex's POV but I don't buy it. There are plenty of scenes without Alex present. If the book is an unreliable narrator kind of thing, well, that's ONLY the book. Kubrick can't get away with that excuse based on how he filmed it.
	11:18am glenn: who doesn't love the possum?
	11:23am Brian in UK: @Ike Not sure about it being all Alex's POV. Burgess' attempt at a future vision then put through Kubricks sensibilities!! Like them or not. A stylist?
	11:24am Brian in UK: @glenn is that Carly Simon's version?
	11:26am Ike: Pauline Kael's awesome review of C.O.: www.visual-memory.co.uk...
	11:28am listener mark: Shrove Tuesday is in full effect.
	11:30am Brian in UK: @Ike I saw the film when it came out & read the book but have had no desire to see them again. NOW the soundtrack is a different thing.
	11:30am Palmer Eldritch: There must be a band called 'Nigerian Boogie Badness'. If there isn't, I have formed it. In my head.
	11:31am Trouble: sounds good to me palmer eldritch!
	11:31am Yarblockos: Kubrick understood the limitations of film. It is neither a strong vehicle for narrative (hence the remarkably lush and uneventful Barry Lyndon) or character (hence the salience of HAL among all roles in his films).
	11:38am Ike: @Brian, I agree, the soundtrack was cool. @Yarb, film not good for narrative or characters?!? Har har, you're winding us up.
	11:42am listener mark: Thank you DJ Trouble, happy music for a dreary, damp morning.
	11:43am Brian in UK: trouble, I bought Grasscut after you played them, seen them since. These boys like a map!!
	11:44am fleep: Good day, Trouble, air people, org people
	11:47am Yarblockos: I got a million of 'em. Seriously, though, I have a very hard time suffering--I mean, watching--movies. Kubrick's are at least entertaining, because they don't try to do more than the medium can support, in my view. Another limitation: it is impossible to act on film. This is why Ryan O'Neal was such a perfect lump of nothing in Barry Lyndon. But, hey, I think Blazing Saddles is cinematography at its finest.
	11:49am Trouble: hey big shout out to all the new commenters today: welcome aboard maties!
	11:51am Yarblockos: Pleasure!
	11:51am Brian in UK: @Yarblockos can I assume you are male then the only reason to watch BL was Marisa Berenson. Nudge nudge wink wink. PS never seen it.
	11:52am v k: Barry Lyndon my favorite Kubrick film - by far
	11:53am Faye: Blige remix on my WFMU? yes please. yes.
	11:54am Palmer Eldritch: Excellent music as per, Trouble. Much appreciated over here in wintry UK.
	11:55am Joe D: yuuuuuuuuuuup
	11:55am Brian in UK: Certainly some attitude in the toon selection today, trouble. Nice.
	11:55am kat330: Hi/Bye, Trouble! I'll catch this wonderful playlist in archive! Happy Mardi Gras!
	11:55am Trouble: hey faye!!thanks allllll you fabulous peeps!
	11:57am Yarblockos: Brian: Yep, XY here. Approaching supernumerary, too, so I'll confess to having read Time magazine's review of the film when it was first released. MB was, of course, an attraction, but I'm also a dork. Thus, I was as interested in the much-hyped natural lighting during the scenes of her deshabile as in her shapeliness.
	1:14pm Olga: Trouble, I just discovered that you played "Here Comes the Sun" this morning about ten minutes before I had the same idea. I had an urge to here it for obvious reason and first thought I wanted the Beatles version, but then went for Nina Simone. So excited I'm finally thinking like my favorite DJ!

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.

Dude had a heart of solid black ice. There is nobody to like in any of his films except for the most psychotic, murderous characters -- Alex in C.O., HAL in 2001.
	11:09am tim from champaign: I'd rate Holocaust as one of the heaviest songs ever.
	11:11am v k: originally by Big Star - had no idea
	11:12am ffrr: Shelly Winters in 'Lolita' is so memorable as to be likeable. Hi T.
	11:13am Trouble: big star wrote it in 74, released in 78. this mortal coil and rainy day versions were released in 84...
	11:14am Brian in UK: @Ike. Kubrick is no Mr Chuckles but CO is of its time. Your opinion might be different if you saw it at the cinerma in '69. Ever read Burgess' book?
	11:16am v k: a more contemporary cover of 'holocaust' is echoing in my head but can't place the artist - help?
	11:18am Ike: @Brian, no, and a friend likes the movie because he links it to the book, but I can only judge based on what I saw on the screen. The victims all being marginalized or portrayed as upper-class jerks was awful -- my friend says that's because it's all Alex's POV but I don't buy it. There are plenty of scenes without Alex present. If the book is an unreliable narrator kind of thing, well, that's ONLY the book. Kubrick can't get away with that excuse based on how he filmed it.
	11:18am glenn: who doesn't love the possum?
	11:23am Brian in UK: @Ike Not sure about it being all Alex's POV. Burgess' attempt at a future vision then put through Kubricks sensibilities!! Like them or not. A stylist?
	11:24am Brian in UK: @glenn is that Carly Simon's version?
	11:26am Ike: Pauline Kael's awesome review of C.O.: www.visual-memory.co.uk...
	11:28am listener mark: Shrove Tuesday is in full effect.
	11:30am Brian in UK: @Ike I saw the film when it came out & read the book but have had no desire to see them again. NOW the soundtrack is a different thing.
	11:30am Palmer Eldritch: There must be a band called 'Nigerian Boogie Badness'. If there isn't, I have formed it. In my head.
	11:31am Trouble: sounds good to me palmer eldritch!
	11:31am Yarblockos: Kubrick understood the limitations of film. It is neither a strong vehicle for narrative (hence the remarkably lush and uneventful Barry Lyndon) or character (hence the salience of HAL among all roles in his films).
	11:38am Ike: @Brian, I agree, the soundtrack was cool. @Yarb, film not good for narrative or characters?!? Har har, you're winding us up.
	11:42am listener mark: Thank you DJ Trouble, happy music for a dreary, damp morning.
	11:43am Brian in UK: trouble, I bought Grasscut after you played them, seen them since. These boys like a map!!
	11:44am fleep: Good day, Trouble, air people, org people
	11:47am Yarblockos: I got a million of 'em. Seriously, though, I have a very hard time suffering--I mean, watching--movies. Kubrick's are at least entertaining, because they don't try to do more than the medium can support, in my view. Another limitation: it is impossible to act on film. This is why Ryan O'Neal was such a perfect lump of nothing in Barry Lyndon. But, hey, I think Blazing Saddles is cinematography at its finest.
	11:49am Trouble: hey big shout out to all the new commenters today: welcome aboard maties!
	11:51am Yarblockos: Pleasure!
	11:51am Brian in UK: @Yarblockos can I assume you are male then the only reason to watch BL was Marisa Berenson. Nudge nudge wink wink. PS never seen it.
	11:52am v k: Barry Lyndon my favorite Kubrick film - by far
	11:53am Faye: Blige remix on my WFMU? yes please. yes.
	11:54am Palmer Eldritch: Excellent music as per, Trouble. Much appreciated over here in wintry UK.
	11:55am Joe D: yuuuuuuuuuuup
	11:55am Brian in UK: Certainly some attitude in the toon selection today, trouble. Nice.
	11:55am kat330: Hi/Bye, Trouble! I'll catch this wonderful playlist in archive! Happy Mardi Gras!
	11:55am Trouble: hey faye!!thanks allllll you fabulous peeps!
	11:57am Yarblockos: Brian: Yep, XY here. Approaching supernumerary, too, so I'll confess to having read Time magazine's review of the film when it was first released. MB was, of course, an attraction, but I'm also a dork. Thus, I was as interested in the much-hyped natural lighting during the scenes of her deshabile as in her shapeliness.
	1:14pm Olga: Trouble, I just discovered that you played "Here Comes the Sun" this morning about ten minutes before I had the same idea. I had an urge to here it for obvious reason and first thought I wanted the Beatles version, but then went for Nina Simone. So excited I'm finally thinking like my favorite DJ!
