	9:31am Cheri Pi: Woa, blast from the new wave past!
	9:33am Roberto: Yup, I had this Cucumbers album on cassette in the early '90s via my then-girlfriend now-wife's brother (now brother-in-law). It was music to paint by.
	9:34am common: nice, roberto!
	9:36am duke: Tuned in just in time for Der Bingle
	9:36am Alessia: It looks like there's a supercool music scene in Hoboken..

	9:42am Joe McG: Shucks, Roberto!
	9:50am Planet Tyler: Dave Gedge - I miss that guy. You read me mind Joe - was just playing this last week after not for a long time.
	9:52am Alessia: @Joe I've managed to get my Cate Le Bon eventually! The record is soooo great!
	9:52am Joe McG: @Alessia: I saw! What a great birthday present!!
	9:54am Rev. Turnip Druid: Waah, missed Kishore K.!
	9:54am dc pat: OOO! James Chance next!
	9:55am Joe McG: @Rev: I may come back to that great comp today, so there may be another shot!
	9:56am fred: Good morning Joe and everyone @dc pat: It should be a track from an album called James, to keep the diagonal going
	9:57am cee dubbles: Lloyd Cole! sigh
	9:57am dc pat: eh, good point @fred..
	9:58am dc pat: BUT, that's blown out of the water now so: JAMES CHANCE!
	9:58am Greg from Bloomfield: Joe! KILLER Mekons on Sunday. A highlight among highlights.
	9:58am Van in DC: Oooh, a James run? I of course would be expected to request James and the Cold Gun.
	9:58am listener james from westwood: I did what now? The radio lady's talking to me!
	9:59am Alessia: Oh Joe! you are giving me chills with this set today! Thank you!
	9:59am dc pat: oh yeah, I second the Mekons motion. Excellent choice/performance.
	9:59am earrie: Yeah. What Greg wrote. Excellent, Joe.
	9:59am Joe McG: Thanks, Greg and dcpat, much fun! @James: You've been so bad, James!
	10:00am Fernando M P: I'm melting with this James set. It's so good...
	10:01am listener james from westwood: I don't think Camera Obscura's sending me a Christmas card this year.... :(
	10:02am paula pc: could only hope this was coming...about James from Leaving Trains I believe
	10:02am listener james from westwood: Jeez, I get around. When do I have time for all this?!
	👻 10:02am tim from champaign: For a variation on a theme there's the Undertones' "Jimmy Jimmy".
	10:03am Chris M.: man what is James' problem
	10:03am KP: Why did Hoffs do a song about my brother and not me!
	👻 10:04am tim from champaign: Hey, a Prince cover.
	10:05am common: soul asylum covering prince? strange.
	10:05am Cheri Pi: Did Hetfield die?
	10:05am bobdoesthings: being Bob... the only song I can think of with my name is Doctor Robert.. and I hate that song.
	10:05am SeanG: MPLS
	10:06am bibi: hi all. happy birthday, james ! huh, is it ? someone died ? give me a clue please.
	10:07am listener james from westwood: For the record, I was a putz at 16. This may be why Susanna and Ms. Obscura were so ticked.
	10:08am common: nice! throwing in the godfathers.
	10:08am Joe McG: Five points to anyone who can name all the songs by the end!
	10:08am dc pat: oh man, best Go4 cover EVER.
	10:08am KP: Birth, School, Work, WFMU!
	10:09am Dominick: Hold the ladder steady
	10:10am will: I stand by what I said at 9:38, this is the shit. When it comes to radio.
	10:10am bobdoesthings: here is a start : www.allmusic.com...
	10:10am Roberto: Soul Asylum bringin' it! Who knew?
	10:11am listener james from westwood: @Dominic: Is that ladder snippet part of a James song? A guy in the neighborhood deli always used to sing that w/ my name when my mom brought me into the joint as a kid.
	10:14am KP: i was just going to say this medley gives me a Peaceful Easy Feelin'
	10:14am Lizardner Dave: Wow, this takes me back to my college radio days.
	10:15am Dominick: James, Hold the Ladder Steady - Sue Thompson
	10:15am Roberto: To be fair, I also like that song that plays during the closing credits to Clerks.
	👻 10:15am tim from champaign: I think I got it. Prince, Buffalo Springfield, Velvets, Godfathers, Gang of 4, Average White Band, Ted Nugent, Run DMC, George Clinton, Bee Gees, The Time, The Eagles.
	10:16am common: whoa, tim!
	10:16am Cheri Pi: Only Ones cover!
	10:16am dc pat: nice work Tim. Keep this up and you'll be going places.
	10:16am Planet Tyler: O please play some Only Ones next?
	👻 10:16am tim from champaign: I always thought the Replacements were influenced by the Only One.
	10:16am listener james from westwood: Who sang that "Wishing Well" song back in the 80s, Terence Trent D'arby? Was a bit of that in the medley, too. @Dominick: Thanks! You solved a 40-year mystery!
	10:16am Cheri Pi: Where does James fit in Tim??
	10:17am KP: Another Girl, Another Planet, Another James
	👻 10:17am tim from champaign: Shit, I don't know CP.
	10:19am bibi: the replacements were mainly influenced by james.
	👻 10:19am tim from champaign: I have to keep my chops up in case WKRP runs another "name that tune" radio edit contest. Can't win if you don't try.
	10:19am KP: www.adioslounge.com...
	10:21am Ike: Just another day in NJ with a gas tanker truck exploding and damn near melting off the train catenary wires. What a commute. newjersey.news12.com...
	10:21am KP: They played the Stuytown Oval last summer. Noted same ripped jeans as last time i saw them 18 years ago and kept walking
	👻 10:23am tim from champaign: That's too bad, Ike. Yikes.
	10:31am Ike: Oh wait, I thought the fire bollocksed up the PATH train btwn. Nwk and JSQ, but it was last night's high winds that did it. Just another pathetic Port Authority screw-up. Speaking of which, please sign this petition re: idiotic PATH construction outages on weekends: www.change.org... Many FMU DJs affected!
	10:32am KP: hope no one was hurt in that. looks horrendous
	10:32am dc pat: wow, what an improvement on the Doors tune...
	10:32am PKNY: I've overlooked that Merry Clayton track on her "Gimme Shelter" record, I mainly picked it up for her version of "Southern Man". I'll have to revisit that record when I get a chance.
	10:32am Planet Tyler: Or not :)
	10:33am bobdoesthings: twentyfeetfromstardom.com
	10:34am Joe McG: @PT: Your DJ just too lazy to run into the library today! @bob: Thanks for the link, that is the one!
	10:34am Karen in Sleepy Hollow: Do a full hour of 45's to make up for the marathon!
	10:35am Joe McG: @Karen: Great idea! But I only brought a half-hour's worth! :S
	👻 10:38am 12539: @Joe: b-sides!
	10:38am Joe McG: @12539: You ain't kiddin'!
	10:39am Cheri Pi: Hey that's my middle name.
	10:39am Ange: <3 <3
	10:39am dc pat: PI!!! TMI!!
	10:39am bobdoesthings: send this track over to Why Oh Why.
	10:41am Joe McG: @Cheri: I'll dedicate that one to you and FMA Andrea!
	10:41am Andrea: I'm not above favoriting this song! Kurt sent this one to me a while ago. There's a girl who looks kinda like me in this music video: www.youtube.com...
	10:41am Cecile: Is this Sylvia Robinson?
	10:41am pierre: Bonjour Tout le monde, tuning in late, but here !
	10:42am Joe McG: @Andrea: Ha! @Cecile: Sho-nuff is!
	10:42am Cheri Pi: P@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:42am Cecile: awesome.
	10:43am Cheri Pi: PIERRE! Cecile!
	10:43am Joe McG: Hey, Pierre, bonjour!
	10:44am Cecile: hola, all!
	10:44am Cecile: wow deep Sweet cut
	10:45am Cecile: is it the b-side of Action?
	10:45am Joe McG: @Cecile: No, it's the A side! Might be Europe only. This copy is French.
	👻 10:46am tim from champaign: Hey Cecile! This is for you: www.youtube.com...
	10:47am Guido (Cologne): Remember well when this Sweet came out. Was a minor hit in Germany. After some silence from the group i guess.
	10:47am DCE: never heard this before--great stuff!
	10:47am will: Queen = the poor man's Sweet.
	10:47am Cecile: Ok, I figured it out. It's on OFf THe Record, which I tend to ignore for some reason.
	10:48am DCE: oh f yeah
	10:48am dc pat: Bluuuuuuuuueeeeeee Spark....
	👻 10:48am tim from champaign: Yes!!!! I love X so much. Always in my top 5 favorite bands of all time. Billy Zoom rules!
	10:49am Cecile: Oh, yeah, Off the Record came out in '77, and I was in a funk then. Then the awful Love is Like Oxygen came out.
	10:49am dc pat: ^ what tfc said.
	10:49am Cecile: I like Australian X a lot better. Still, they have 5-6 classic songs.
	10:51am Cecile: now i gotta get on finding a dl or cheap CD of Off The Record.
	10:51am Cecile: the organ sound on this is sick.
	10:52am doca: Hi, Joe, Cecile, CP, Guido, and all McGaskians :)
	👻 10:52am tim from champaign: Wow, JJ 180. Never heard this. Total KBD goodness.
	10:53am Guido (Cologne): "Love is Like Oxygen" was better than "Lost Angels" IMHO
	10:53am Cecile: Bom dia, doca.
	10:54am Cecile: oh hell no, Guido. It was so non Sweet-like and drippy. We'll have to A2D. (trying to coin a short phrase for "agree to disagree")
	10:54am Guido (Cologne): Hi Doca!
	10:55am doca: Tag, Guido! Tudo bem, Cecile?
	10:56am dc pat: yeah, @cecile: we'll have to A2D on X...
	10:57am doca: @Guido: I'm thinking about a schedule for the blog translations, I was thinking of making one song per album a day. My choice was: Caetano Veloso's first one, Gilberto Gil's Expresso 2222, Tom Zé's debut album, then Tábua de Esmeralda, by Jorge Ben, and on fridays do a song from that Devendra Banhardt compilation on Tim Maia. What do you think?
	10:57am DCE: I don't A with that
	10:57am doca: I'll just have to translate them BEFORE I publish it, and not just see what it happens when I get on wordpress and translate them on the spot.
	10:58am Cecile: I'm good. and you? I'm taking baby steps with Portuguese.
	10:59am doca: I'm doing fine, Cecile. Where have you been learning Portuguese?
	10:59am Cecile: so you have a blog, doca?
	11:00am doca: Yes! Guido's idea, actually: http://brazil70translationproject.wordpress.com/
	11:00am Guido (Cologne): @doca You put a lot of work on your shoulders !
	11:01am mariano: @Cecile: Love A2D. Will try to propagate it, will give credit!
	11:01am Cecile: that's awesome! Well, I looked up the greeting today on Google, and then I just put it into my Duolingo
	11:01am MattBelow: I kept thinking he was gonna go into that Frankie Valli tune on that last one
	11:01am Cecile: thanks, mariano!
	11:01am doca: Yeah, I know. It will have to wait a little bit. But I was eager to translate Jorge Ben and Tim Maia, but as the blog subject is Tropicália I think I can't just keep it off for so much of a time
	11:02am Cecile: baby steps. Also, a dear friend of mine was a Portuguese language major who spent a good amount of time in Brazil.
	11:04am dc pat: wow, cool guida/doca! Like the Pele icon.
	11:04am doca: Nice, I was speaking with a friend of time on what makes an US resident becomes a Brazilianist. She went to Yale for some time to work with some guy who studied Machado de Assis. But I think Portuguese is a difficult language to master, lots of regional variations and slang and accents
	11:05am doca: Not unlike English, actually.
	11:07am MattBelow: I love bills!
	11:07am Cecile: Or Spanish. I'm amazed at how many people lisp through it. I learned Spanish from a Puerto Rican teacher, she said nobody lisps in the Western Hemisphere. hahaha
	👻 11:08am 12539: Joe, is it true they're changing your address to lsd@wfmu.org?
	11:09am Brian: Where did you get that Kevin Ayers loop you are using as your backing?
	11:09am Cecile: how about surfacenoise@wfmu.org?
	11:10am doca: @Cecile: sorry, lisp? I googled it and don't know if I caught the meaning
	11:10am braveness23: B23 here!
	11:11am Cecile: saying "th" for an "s" or "z" sound. It's a speech impediment in many languages, and i'm told that Castilian Spanish is based on the speech patterns of a king with a lisp.
	11:11am DCE: thanks for the heads up. I will tune into that.
	11:12am Mike East: My buddy sent me a video of a bloco in Brazil of a marching band playing Rage Against the Machine's "know your enemy." looks like quite a party.
	👻 11:13am tim from champaign: Alright! 2nd Bohannon is 2 days.
	11:13am Joe McG: @12539: Absolutely true!
	11:13am common: bohannon!
	11:13am doca: @Cecile: Oh yes, we call it "língua presa", or "stuck tongue" in a rough translation. It's very common in Brazil, but you're right, Spanish is all about it. @Mike: Everything can be played at Carnival. Me and a friend of mine had the idea to do a bloco only of prog rock and Rush-covers.
	11:15am Mike East: @doca - that sounds awesomely fun.
	11:15am bobdoesthings: whose show are the Boogarins playing on?
	11:16am joe: 'ello folks
	11:16am Cecile: that does! Wow, I wasn't that familiar with Bohannon apart from a couple of songs, but boy, I see a thread tying him to Prince.
	11:16am Joe McG: @bob: Sorry, I can't believe I didn't say so. Joe Belock, 12-3, March 25.
	11:18am Joe McG: What I love about Bohannon is how single-minded he is. ALL groove.
	11:18am DCE: the guitar pick will be ground to a stubby nub when this tune ends
	11:18am Cecile: wow, none of his stuff is in print here?!?!??!?!?!
	11:18am bobdoesthings: thanks joe!
	11:19am doca: @Cecile: You're in Minneapolis, right? I'm always impressed that the same place was home to Bob Dylan and Prince and that that city is Minneapolis. Both doesn't seen to belong to the image I have of a cold weather-struck indoors city
	11:20am βrian: Love that guitar spank.
	11:20am doca: By the way, saw that Alexander Payne's Nebraska a couple of days ago. Hard to believe that sleepy American really exists.
	11:20am doca: There's a little of Louie Louie on that Pierre Henry Futurama theme song
	11:21am joe: Throw that underwater bass sound in a song and I'm sold from go.
	11:21am bobdoesthings: are there actual words to this song?! I only know the drunken Kingsmen version..
	11:21am Listening Out There: thought this was Pat Boone's "Louie Louie." I was mistooked.
	11:22am joe: this song would flow great into CM'S Pusherman.
	11:22am Guido (Cologne): @doca in a way i'm not the biggest fan of that radical "mobile-first"-philosophy of navigation. somehow i feel lost when i click the 'navi'-icon.
	11:23am dc pat: speaking of borrowing music, I just wrote this song for a project I'm working on and realized yesterday the chord progression is a rip off of Twisted Sister.... I hate Twisted Sister.
	11:23am Cecile: Dylan is actually from Northern MN, which is a different vibe that Minneapolis. But Mpls did give him a launching pad of sorts. Prince is so part of the fabric of Minneapolis. People went to school with him, played in his bands. He's not quite the recluse he portrays. People see him at shows, he was at Janelle Monae recently. I think part of it is the weather. You are forced to stay inside and read, draw, cook or play music for days on end. Especially this winter! We should have a huge artistic surge this summer.
	11:24am Mike East: @dc pat - then its good that you're using the chords to make a better song...one would hope
	11:24am Cecile: We had 50 days below zero this year!
	11:24am Parq: @Joe, 11:21, I first read your reference to bass with the short A, and I wondered, "what other kind is there?" Don't mind me, I'm always a bit discombobulated when Friday the 13th falls on a Thursday.
	11:25am Cecile: ita with mike east, frankenstein it into something betteer.
	11:26am Tom in PA: @Cecile Yowza. No wonder my heating bill is higher than a kite.
	11:26am chinaski: Dexter!
	11:27am doca: @Guido: Don't remember what you're talking about right now actually, but I'm radically against all things mobile (kinda kidding) @Cecile: Below zero fahrenheit or celsius? Anyway, I hope Mpls is blooming soon, hard to even imagine that much cold.
	11:28am cee dubbles: man that sounds like the late great Warren Zevon
	11:28am Cecile: below zero, doca. But once it gets down to -30 or -40, the 2 systems converge and it's the same.
	11:29am doca: I know it sounds like a bad joke, but I dream of something like a polar vortex after all the heat we had this summer. We had more than a month over 35C
	11:29am Greg from Bloomfield: Saw these guys the one time I went to SXSW– Sara was one of the illest drummers I've ever seen.
	11:29am Cecile: and, yeah I had a hard time imagining that much cold and i was in the middle of it.
	👻 11:30am tim from champaign: @Cecile - Bohannon records are real easy to come by. Used LPs are affordable. I'm not sure what's available on cd though. I was hipped to Bohannon about 5 years ago. I've since found about 8 of his LPs. The late 70s-early 80s Bohannon is just as good as the mid 70s records.
	11:30am chinaski: if you like Romweber i highly recommend his early duo, Flat Duo Jets
	11:30am doca: Didn't know that, Cecile.
	11:31am doca: Have to lunch right now, thanks for all the sounds and talks (:
	11:31am V Priceless: Hmmm...a spin on "I Can Hear The Grass Grow" perhaps?
	11:31am SSS: Ah Curly.Where HAVE you been?
	11:31am Cecile: thanks, tim. The CDs seem way out of print. You are also in an area where there are actual people who listen to actual funk.
	11:31am common: @chinaski: one of the best shows i ever saw was in nc. flat duo jets. started the first song and then dexter ran through the crowd and out the door and never came back. that's punk!
	11:31am Cecile: later, doca!
	11:31am DCE: talk to the grass, man
	11:32am bobdoesthings: makes me think of Johnny Cash "as the grass shall grow"
	11:32am Cecile: holy crap, she is alive and singing!
	11:33am V Priceless: Dear Curly: you prob is obvious: stop talking to it and just fire it up already! : )
	👻 11:33am tim from champaign: Cecile - Did you catch the Mel Farr Superstar link I posted above?
	11:35am Cecile: no, I'll take a look at it.
	11:36am h_cameron: hi Joe! it's heather cameron. I wasn't planning to comment, but this song is super special to me! I grew up on the Mississippi River!
	👻 11:36am tim from champaign: I was watching Mel Farr Superstar commercials on YooToob last night.
	11:37am Joe McG: Hey, Heather! I'm so glad you like it! You can comment anytime.
	11:38am Carmichael: Hiya Joe and citizens. Would have tuned in earlier, but my avatar explains it all.
	11:39am h_cameron: one of my old faves...I always liked the Doc Watson, but that version was great! Never heard it before.
	11:39am Cecile: that was awesome, tim!
	11:41am Cecile: ah, yes, cul de sac.
	11:42am Joe McG: That's one smokey avatar, Carm.
	11:42am KevinfromBayRidge: Hello Joe Mc & all . Laaate start. it's the archives pour moi! Congrats on over-achieving!
	11:43am Guido (Cologne): Glenn Jones' favourite Fahey song. This IS a landmark guitar-piece actually! One of my all time faves.
	11:43am will: This show has captured my imagination from beginning to end (yes been here 3 hours, rapt) and for you Joe I am glad to have become a Life Swagger in this last go-round. Will J
	11:45am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Just star clicked this Cul de Sac one. Surprised it is a 2014 issue, sounds older.
	11:45am Carmichael: It's a smoggy avatar, Joe. From all the GODDAMN cars between me and my office.
	11:45am Guido (Cologne): It was on the first Cul de Sac (1989ish) album, when Fahey was still to bere-discovered by the younger musicians generations.
	11:46am Joe McG: Excellent news, Will J, thanks, man! @Carm: Cars suck.
	11:47am dc pat: man, what a show Joe McG. Thanks a million.
	11:48am Cecile: yup, it took 90s reissues to get his stuff back in the public eye. I had been listening to him since the early 80s, and basically kept combing record bins.
	11:48am Joe McG: Freeform radio for a whole other year! You people are the bestest of the best. THANKS AGAIN!!
	11:48am DCE: ah yes, I thought that might be the tender pickins of Mr Rose
	11:48am bibi: whats the name again of this movement of avant-folk/minimal acoustic guitarists ?...
	👻 11:49am Brian in UK: Hey Joe, better late than later. Were you cut off in your prime on the H&M video?
	11:49am Ike: Ah, Cul de Sac's "Portland Cement Factory," a big WFMU hit back in the 90s.
	11:50am Joe McG: @Brian: Yes, I think my bellowing and flailing alarmed the people at U-Stream and they excised me.
	11:50am bibi: american primitivism wiki tells me.

	10:11am listener james from westwood: @Dominic: Is that ladder snippet part of a James song? A guy in the neighborhood deli always used to sing that w/ my name when my mom brought me into the joint as a kid.
	10:14am KP: i was just going to say this medley gives me a Peaceful Easy Feelin'

	10:16am Cheri Pi: Where does James fit in Tim??
	10:17am KP: Another Girl, Another Planet, Another James

	👻 10:23am tim from champaign: That's too bad, Ike. Yikes.
	10:31am Ike: Oh wait, I thought the fire bollocksed up the PATH train btwn. Nwk and JSQ, but it was last night's high winds that did it. Just another pathetic Port Authority screw-up. Speaking of which, please sign this petition re: idiotic PATH construction outages on weekends: www.change.org... Many FMU DJs affected!
	10:32am KP: hope no one was hurt in that. looks horrendous
	10:32am dc pat: wow, what an improvement on the Doors tune...
	10:32am PKNY: I've overlooked that Merry Clayton track on her "Gimme Shelter" record, I mainly picked it up for her version of "Southern Man". I'll have to revisit that record when I get a chance.
	10:32am Planet Tyler: Or not :)
	10:33am bobdoesthings: twentyfeetfromstardom.com
	10:34am Joe McG: @PT: Your DJ just too lazy to run into the library today! @bob: Thanks for the link, that is the one!
	10:34am Karen in Sleepy Hollow: Do a full hour of 45's to make up for the marathon!
	10:35am Joe McG: @Karen: Great idea! But I only brought a half-hour's worth! :S

	10:41am Joe McG: @Cheri: I'll dedicate that one to you and FMA Andrea!
	10:41am Andrea: I'm not above favoriting this song! Kurt sent this one to me a while ago. There's a girl who looks kinda like me in this music video: www.youtube.com...
	10:41am Cecile: Is this Sylvia Robinson?
	10:41am pierre: Bonjour Tout le monde, tuning in late, but here !
	10:42am Joe McG: @Andrea: Ha! @Cecile: Sho-nuff is!
	10:42am Cheri Pi: P@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:42am Cecile: awesome.
	10:43am Cheri Pi: PIERRE! Cecile!
	10:43am Joe McG: Hey, Pierre, bonjour!
	10:44am Cecile: hola, all!
	10:44am Cecile: wow deep Sweet cut
	10:45am Cecile: is it the b-side of Action?
	10:45am Joe McG: @Cecile: No, it's the A side! Might be Europe only. This copy is French.
	👻 10:46am tim from champaign: Hey Cecile! This is for you: www.youtube.com...
	10:47am Guido (Cologne): Remember well when this Sweet came out. Was a minor hit in Germany. After some silence from the group i guess.
	10:47am DCE: never heard this before--great stuff!
	10:47am will: Queen = the poor man's Sweet.
	10:47am Cecile: Ok, I figured it out. It's on OFf THe Record, which I tend to ignore for some reason.
	10:48am DCE: oh f yeah
	10:48am dc pat: Bluuuuuuuuueeeeeee Spark....
	👻 10:48am tim from champaign: Yes!!!! I love X so much. Always in my top 5 favorite bands of all time. Billy Zoom rules!
	10:49am Cecile: Oh, yeah, Off the Record came out in '77, and I was in a funk then. Then the awful Love is Like Oxygen came out.
	10:49am dc pat: ^ what tfc said.
	10:49am Cecile: I like Australian X a lot better. Still, they have 5-6 classic songs.
	10:51am Cecile: now i gotta get on finding a dl or cheap CD of Off The Record.
	10:51am Cecile: the organ sound on this is sick.
	10:52am doca: Hi, Joe, Cecile, CP, Guido, and all McGaskians :)
	👻 10:52am tim from champaign: Wow, JJ 180. Never heard this. Total KBD goodness.
	10:53am Guido (Cologne): "Love is Like Oxygen" was better than "Lost Angels" IMHO
	10:53am Cecile: Bom dia, doca.
	10:54am Cecile: oh hell no, Guido. It was so non Sweet-like and drippy. We'll have to A2D. (trying to coin a short phrase for "agree to disagree")
	10:54am Guido (Cologne): Hi Doca!
	10:55am doca: Tag, Guido! Tudo bem, Cecile?
	10:56am dc pat: yeah, @cecile: we'll have to A2D on X...
	10:57am doca: @Guido: I'm thinking about a schedule for the blog translations, I was thinking of making one song per album a day. My choice was: Caetano Veloso's first one, Gilberto Gil's Expresso 2222, Tom Zé's debut album, then Tábua de Esmeralda, by Jorge Ben, and on fridays do a song from that Devendra Banhardt compilation on Tim Maia. What do you think?
	10:57am DCE: I don't A with that
	10:57am doca: I'll just have to translate them BEFORE I publish it, and not just see what it happens when I get on wordpress and translate them on the spot.
	10:58am Cecile: I'm good. and you? I'm taking baby steps with Portuguese.
	10:59am doca: I'm doing fine, Cecile. Where have you been learning Portuguese?
	10:59am Cecile: so you have a blog, doca?
	11:00am doca: Yes! Guido's idea, actually: http://brazil70translationproject.wordpress.com/
	11:00am Guido (Cologne): @doca You put a lot of work on your shoulders !
	11:01am mariano: @Cecile: Love A2D. Will try to propagate it, will give credit!
	11:01am Cecile: that's awesome! Well, I looked up the greeting today on Google, and then I just put it into my Duolingo
	11:01am MattBelow: I kept thinking he was gonna go into that Frankie Valli tune on that last one
	11:01am Cecile: thanks, mariano!
	11:01am doca: Yeah, I know. It will have to wait a little bit. But I was eager to translate Jorge Ben and Tim Maia, but as the blog subject is Tropicália I think I can't just keep it off for so much of a time
	11:02am Cecile: baby steps. Also, a dear friend of mine was a Portuguese language major who spent a good amount of time in Brazil.
	11:04am dc pat: wow, cool guida/doca! Like the Pele icon.
	11:04am doca: Nice, I was speaking with a friend of time on what makes an US resident becomes a Brazilianist. She went to Yale for some time to work with some guy who studied Machado de Assis. But I think Portuguese is a difficult language to master, lots of regional variations and slang and accents
	11:05am doca: Not unlike English, actually.
	11:07am MattBelow: I love bills!
	11:07am Cecile: Or Spanish. I'm amazed at how many people lisp through it. I learned Spanish from a Puerto Rican teacher, she said nobody lisps in the Western Hemisphere. hahaha
	👻 11:08am 12539: Joe, is it true they're changing your address to lsd@wfmu.org?
	11:09am Brian: Where did you get that Kevin Ayers loop you are using as your backing?
	11:09am Cecile: how about surfacenoise@wfmu.org?
	11:10am doca: @Cecile: sorry, lisp? I googled it and don't know if I caught the meaning
	11:10am braveness23: B23 here!
	11:11am Cecile: saying "th" for an "s" or "z" sound. It's a speech impediment in many languages, and i'm told that Castilian Spanish is based on the speech patterns of a king with a lisp.
	11:11am DCE: thanks for the heads up. I will tune into that.
	11:12am Mike East: My buddy sent me a video of a bloco in Brazil of a marching band playing Rage Against the Machine's "know your enemy." looks like quite a party.
	👻 11:13am tim from champaign: Alright! 2nd Bohannon is 2 days.
	11:13am Joe McG: @12539: Absolutely true!
	11:13am common: bohannon!
	11:13am doca: @Cecile: Oh yes, we call it "língua presa", or "stuck tongue" in a rough translation. It's very common in Brazil, but you're right, Spanish is all about it. @Mike: Everything can be played at Carnival. Me and a friend of mine had the idea to do a bloco only of prog rock and Rush-covers.
	11:15am Mike East: @doca - that sounds awesomely fun.
	11:15am bobdoesthings: whose show are the Boogarins playing on?
	11:16am joe: 'ello folks
	11:16am Cecile: that does! Wow, I wasn't that familiar with Bohannon apart from a couple of songs, but boy, I see a thread tying him to Prince.
	11:16am Joe McG: @bob: Sorry, I can't believe I didn't say so. Joe Belock, 12-3, March 25.
	11:18am Joe McG: What I love about Bohannon is how single-minded he is. ALL groove.
	11:18am DCE: the guitar pick will be ground to a stubby nub when this tune ends
	11:18am Cecile: wow, none of his stuff is in print here?!?!??!?!?!
	11:18am bobdoesthings: thanks joe!
	11:19am doca: @Cecile: You're in Minneapolis, right? I'm always impressed that the same place was home to Bob Dylan and Prince and that that city is Minneapolis. Both doesn't seen to belong to the image I have of a cold weather-struck indoors city
	11:20am βrian: Love that guitar spank.
	11:20am doca: By the way, saw that Alexander Payne's Nebraska a couple of days ago. Hard to believe that sleepy American really exists.
	11:20am doca: There's a little of Louie Louie on that Pierre Henry Futurama theme song
	11:21am joe: Throw that underwater bass sound in a song and I'm sold from go.
	11:21am bobdoesthings: are there actual words to this song?! I only know the drunken Kingsmen version..
	11:21am Listening Out There: thought this was Pat Boone's "Louie Louie." I was mistooked.
	11:22am joe: this song would flow great into CM'S Pusherman.
	11:22am Guido (Cologne): @doca in a way i'm not the biggest fan of that radical "mobile-first"-philosophy of navigation. somehow i feel lost when i click the 'navi'-icon.
	11:23am dc pat: speaking of borrowing music, I just wrote this song for a project I'm working on and realized yesterday the chord progression is a rip off of Twisted Sister.... I hate Twisted Sister.
	11:23am Cecile: Dylan is actually from Northern MN, which is a different vibe that Minneapolis. But Mpls did give him a launching pad of sorts. Prince is so part of the fabric of Minneapolis. People went to school with him, played in his bands. He's not quite the recluse he portrays. People see him at shows, he was at Janelle Monae recently. I think part of it is the weather. You are forced to stay inside and read, draw, cook or play music for days on end. Especially this winter! We should have a huge artistic surge this summer.
	11:24am Mike East: @dc pat - then its good that you're using the chords to make a better song...one would hope
	11:24am Cecile: We had 50 days below zero this year!
	11:24am Parq: @Joe, 11:21, I first read your reference to bass with the short A, and I wondered, "what other kind is there?" Don't mind me, I'm always a bit discombobulated when Friday the 13th falls on a Thursday.
	11:25am Cecile: ita with mike east, frankenstein it into something betteer.
	11:26am Tom in PA: @Cecile Yowza. No wonder my heating bill is higher than a kite.
	11:26am chinaski: Dexter!
	11:27am doca: @Guido: Don't remember what you're talking about right now actually, but I'm radically against all things mobile (kinda kidding) @Cecile: Below zero fahrenheit or celsius? Anyway, I hope Mpls is blooming soon, hard to even imagine that much cold.
	11:28am cee dubbles: man that sounds like the late great Warren Zevon
	11:28am Cecile: below zero, doca. But once it gets down to -30 or -40, the 2 systems converge and it's the same.
	11:29am doca: I know it sounds like a bad joke, but I dream of something like a polar vortex after all the heat we had this summer. We had more than a month over 35C
	11:29am Greg from Bloomfield: Saw these guys the one time I went to SXSW– Sara was one of the illest drummers I've ever seen.
	11:29am Cecile: and, yeah I had a hard time imagining that much cold and i was in the middle of it.
	👻 11:30am tim from champaign: @Cecile - Bohannon records are real easy to come by. Used LPs are affordable. I'm not sure what's available on cd though. I was hipped to Bohannon about 5 years ago. I've since found about 8 of his LPs. The late 70s-early 80s Bohannon is just as good as the mid 70s records.
	11:30am chinaski: if you like Romweber i highly recommend his early duo, Flat Duo Jets
	11:30am doca: Didn't know that, Cecile.
	11:31am doca: Have to lunch right now, thanks for all the sounds and talks (:
	11:31am V Priceless: Hmmm...a spin on "I Can Hear The Grass Grow" perhaps?
	11:31am SSS: Ah Curly.Where HAVE you been?
	11:31am Cecile: thanks, tim. The CDs seem way out of print. You are also in an area where there are actual people who listen to actual funk.
	11:31am common: @chinaski: one of the best shows i ever saw was in nc. flat duo jets. started the first song and then dexter ran through the crowd and out the door and never came back. that's punk!
	11:31am Cecile: later, doca!
	11:31am DCE: talk to the grass, man
	11:32am bobdoesthings: makes me think of Johnny Cash "as the grass shall grow"
	11:32am Cecile: holy crap, she is alive and singing!
	11:33am V Priceless: Dear Curly: you prob is obvious: stop talking to it and just fire it up already! : )
	👻 11:33am tim from champaign: Cecile - Did you catch the Mel Farr Superstar link I posted above?
	11:35am Cecile: no, I'll take a look at it.
	11:36am h_cameron: hi Joe! it's heather cameron. I wasn't planning to comment, but this song is super special to me! I grew up on the Mississippi River!
	👻 11:36am tim from champaign: I was watching Mel Farr Superstar commercials on YooToob last night.
	11:37am Joe McG: Hey, Heather! I'm so glad you like it! You can comment anytime.
	11:38am Carmichael: Hiya Joe and citizens. Would have tuned in earlier, but my avatar explains it all.
	11:39am h_cameron: one of my old faves...I always liked the Doc Watson, but that version was great! Never heard it before.
	11:39am Cecile: that was awesome, tim!
	11:41am Cecile: ah, yes, cul de sac.
	11:42am Joe McG: That's one smokey avatar, Carm.
	11:42am KevinfromBayRidge: Hello Joe Mc & all . Laaate start. it's the archives pour moi! Congrats on over-achieving!
	11:43am Guido (Cologne): Glenn Jones' favourite Fahey song. This IS a landmark guitar-piece actually! One of my all time faves.
	11:43am will: This show has captured my imagination from beginning to end (yes been here 3 hours, rapt) and for you Joe I am glad to have become a Life Swagger in this last go-round. Will J
	11:45am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Just star clicked this Cul de Sac one. Surprised it is a 2014 issue, sounds older.
	11:45am Carmichael: It's a smoggy avatar, Joe. From all the GODDAMN cars between me and my office.
	11:45am Guido (Cologne): It was on the first Cul de Sac (1989ish) album, when Fahey was still to bere-discovered by the younger musicians generations.
	11:46am Joe McG: Excellent news, Will J, thanks, man! @Carm: Cars suck.
	11:47am dc pat: man, what a show Joe McG. Thanks a million.
	11:48am Cecile: yup, it took 90s reissues to get his stuff back in the public eye. I had been listening to him since the early 80s, and basically kept combing record bins.
	11:48am Joe McG: Freeform radio for a whole other year! You people are the bestest of the best. THANKS AGAIN!!
	11:48am DCE: ah yes, I thought that might be the tender pickins of Mr Rose
	11:48am bibi: whats the name again of this movement of avant-folk/minimal acoustic guitarists ?...
	👻 11:49am Brian in UK: Hey Joe, better late than later. Were you cut off in your prime on the H&M video?
	11:49am Ike: Ah, Cul de Sac's "Portland Cement Factory," a big WFMU hit back in the 90s.
	11:50am Joe McG: @Brian: Yes, I think my bellowing and flailing alarmed the people at U-Stream and they excised me.
	11:50am bibi: american primitivism wiki tells me.
	11:50am Carmichael: Hunter Thompson, of all people, turned me on to Fahey and Sandy Bull. Talked about them frequently in his books.
	11:50am Cecile: bib - fingerstyle, or American Primitive
	11:51am Cecile: bibi
	11:51am Joe McG: That's it, bibi, I couldn't remember. Thanks, Cecile.
	👻 11:53am Brian in UK: @Carmichael first time I ever heard of an oud was when I bought Sandy Bull's E Pleurbum Funk (totally wrong spelling)
	11:53am common: cars do suck.
	11:54am Matt ww: Joe I wish you could see me air guitaring right now. I've got this song figured out
	11:54am Joe McG: Re-enact it tomorrow!
	11:55am Guido (Cologne): "primitivism" refers to "primitivist" composers from late romantic era, as opposed to "academic" composers ... such as Rimsky Kosakoff, Villa Lobos, etc. ... not just "primitive music" ... just saying.
	11:55am KevinfromBayRidge: Hey Brian, how does it feel to be the 1.2 mill man!
	11:56am fred: @bibi: if you like this kind of thing you should get on these guys' mailing list: lachaiselestabourets.wordpress.com
	11:56am Guido (Cologne): Good question kevin.
	11:56am Carmichael: And don't forget your Davey Graham, folkies.
	11:57am Joe McG: Thanks for listening, everybody! Have a great week!
	👻 11:57am Brian in UK: @Kevin Very good. Feels like a MILLION DOLLARS.
	11:57am braveness23: thanks Joe!
	👻 11:57am tim from champaign: Thanks Joe!
	11:57am frenchee: boppin' with JOE!
	11:57am Guido (Cologne): Davey Graham instead of Jimmy page ... ... things that must be said against copycats!
	👻 11:58am 12539: Ah, those big bands of the 90s!
	11:58am Guido (Cologne): THANKS FOR THE SHOW! CU next week Joe!
	11:58am earrie: Great end to a great show, Joe.
	11:59am Greg from Bloomfield: Thanks much, Joe!
	👻 11:59am 12539: Thanks as always, Joe.
	👻 11:59am Brian in UK: This is the real Hoof 'N Mouth.
	12:00pm listener james from westwood: Thanks for the fine show, and congrats on the marathon!
