6:05am : hello everyone. Wuzzup?![]()
♥ 6:05am :
Morning, Frank. Sun is up and shining. Ready for your show. Hi, all.![]()
♥ 6:09am :
Glad I made it too. Good morning, Frank, and O'Toolaids here-and thereabouts.
Pronounce *about* as *aboot* and become an honourary Canuck.![]()
6:10am : Konin: goob morgan. It's rain back here.
Sem: hows bayou?6:11am : Guten TZAG, fxo and all O'Toologists. Haven't heard this version of Morning Dew before, intriguing.![]()
6:13am : Guten TZAG, P-90.6:16am : If anyone's not familiar with Robert Plant's cover of this song from his (in my opinion best) solo album "Dreamland" from 20002, you might check it out. Like his cover of "Darkness, Darkness", it seems to have influenced other covers of the song that have been done since.6:17am : 2-0-0-2. A-D.![]()
♥ 6:26am :
FXO: drinking the O'Toolaid again this am:-D
Wouldn't be Monday without a few exciting moments to get the heart started.![]()
6:26am : Morning All-
Grey skys but dry, with a chorus of morning bird outside mixing with cha-cha![]()
6:27am : Brooklyn that is...6:29am : Goo morning fxo & fxoers. Aboot to start my week with you all and WFMU.![]()
6:30am : thanks for the update, 3d.
Cooh: glad we're here.![]()
6:35am : Hey Frank. what's what? up's up.![]()
6:36am : here, here, mauri. ...and there.![]()
6:49am : Greetings all. Sunny and spring-y here in east Ireland. Glad to be tuning in live this morn. It's been a while.6:53am : Loved this song since I first heard it from the movie Radio Baghdad.![]()
6:54am : top o' the afternoon, left.![]()
♥ 7:00am :
- ey-up! Grey in NewHampshuh. Good sounds though.![]()
7:04am : hey RevRab. Chill in our morning, eh?7:10am : Profoundly gray and a light but steady rain on the Upper West Side now. Still, feels like a spring rain, not the endless winter.![]()
7:10am : love this version of "Up from the skies"![]()
7:13am : Hendricks' wa wa pedal was amazing, yet Rankins version works fine too-![]()
7:13am : Bonjour FxO !![]()
7:17am : bonjour, Pierre.![]()
♥ 7:24am :
- yes - the Elvis by Bill Lloyd helps me appreciate the song as well.7:30am : Better than Moviefone!![]()
7:37am : BTW- Rankins interpetation does not seem like simply a version or cover of a known song... Ferry was able to do this occasionally too I think-![]()
♥ 7:42am :
- there is the point of view : why cover a song if you can't do something different / interesting / expressive of yourself w/ it?![]()
7:44am : agreed, to both of you, 3d & RevRab.![]()
♥ 7:45am :
..&/or that reveals something about the song...![]()
7:50am : taking an old tune, with a new twist.![]()
7:52am : As a listener, a differnet take can reveal new facets about a song..
if the song has them to revealed that is-
Giant Fingers version of Eno's "Babys on fire" does that too I think-![]()
♥ 7:56am :
Ferry - hm! ...so now thinking - what are the great covers? 'Tambourine Man' by The Byrds - we sort-of forget it's one...Jazz was (is) all about Standards & taking them somewhere (playing the 'head' & going elsewhere) - Folk was (is) about reinterpretation of Tradition (Dylan himself - much stuff often based heavily on Traditional or Blues songs)
...a topic that could go on & on - unless we limit it to Rawk/Pop or something...7:56am : Good Morning folks, a great music morning, thanks Mr. DJ.![]()
7:58am : morning Jack.
Rev, somethings can help, or hurt. Yet, another p.o.v.![]()
8:08am : Classical conductors interpetations of a composers piece can vary,
but not nearly to the extent that Pop music can be by various musicians..
@ fxo:
Agreed, help , hurt, ...but sometimes reflect something not originally apparent-![]()
♥ 8:17am :
- interpreting - well or badly, misinterpreting, reinterpreting, & just plain repurposing...because I likes big words...![]()
♥ 8:44am :
Tuning in for the end. I liked the Turnquist.![]()
♥ 8:45am :
