	12:20am coelacanth: hi Nick and everyone
	12:23am Alejandroool: Hey NN Tome and Coela - Don Cherry! thankfully not of NHL fame..
	12:24am P-90: Hi Nick, always a pleasure. Nice choice to start.
	12:36am mike s.: According to the Huffington Post Paul Kantner of the Jefferson Airplane has passed on.
	12:39am JakeGould: Who isn’t dying this month?
	12:40am coelacanth: his wikipedia page was changed around by 8 pm too. rest in peace.
	12:46am Tome: bummer ! bit.ly...
	12:48am coelacanth: ahh,one of my favorite airplane songs, Tome.
	12:49am MrFab: Diggin' the heavy sounds here in LA as I do the dishes. (Will try not to break any as I bang my head.)
	12:50am Tome: when you think about it 50 years ago !! wow ... loved the 1st LP too , and Signe Anderson too .
	12:51am coelacanth: as am i Nick; and the ugly animal was excellent.
	12:54am Alejandroool: the slide on this is great....
	12:58am coelacanth: yeh,those first 5 albums. 'mostly excellent. surrealistic pillow and volunteers were a huge part of my high-school daze, until punk took over! ...i rarely liked Slick's singing,but she wrote some great songs.
	1:00am rw: Hey! I like After Bathing at Baxter's
	1:00am JakeGould: @coelacanth: The thing with Jefferson Airplane is they really, really, really overdid it during their “Starship” phase and it almost overwhelms everything else they did that was worth knowing/caring about. Heart almost went down that route as well, but never went as far as they did.
	1:01am coelacanth: ...yeah,50 years ago. 1965...people don't realise how groundbreaking it was then.
	1:05am coelacanth: hey rw! yeah,Jake. now i think about it,i was already into JA when volunteers was released, via my older brother; then lost track of them, probably because he didn't like "bark" or anything after. but then i heard the starship stuff on the radio and 100% hated it immediately!
	1:06am JakeGould: @coelacanth: I think there was one record exec or producer in the 1980s whose responsible for attempting to “revive” older bands in the 1980s with big hair and synths.
	1:10am coelacanth: (...i must be mistaken AGAIN! i think it was c.'71-'72 that my brother got volunteers...but before 'starship came any way.) ...who was it Jake?
	1:11am ausmanx: lovely to arrive and hear (unmistakeably) mr fripp. evening all...
	1:11am Alejandroool: NN really enjoying the tunes - helping me get work done... on JA - think I'm too young to offer much input, but I obviously got into them at some point for however long/ whatever impact it may have had...
	1:16am coelacanth: good timing ausmanx! Aleja- i was too young to experience it as it hit; but a few years later was just old enough to understand the turmoil of the time, and what role this revolutionary music played in that. -it blew my little mind! i remember very clearly.
	1:17am Alejandroool: man, this is dark sounding, and the dirty bass - love it. Should check out the full Live album
	1:20am Clay: Krankin' the Krimson on the TNP, baby! WTG Nick!!!!
	1:27am coelacanth: and ausmanx Thanks again! this weekend i'll listen to it. Jake, forgive my ignorance but i don't know who you meant...i fairly successfully disengaged myself from mainstream and popular music by the early 80s,and didn't start paying attention again until around 1996- when my car could only get the most powerful stations, and i was with a woman who indulged in some mainstream stuff.
	1:29am Tome: ... "cool" jaZZ , when requested to play in the car in the 90's , oiy ... but good memories ,,
	1:34am Alejandroool: 16 yrs! what would you have heard in 1996 on the most powerful stations at that time hmm
	1:34am coelacanth: yes. there's some music that i like that i probably never would have if not for someone else who i wanted to be open-minded for! ...a lot of those songs i didn't know were mainstream radio songs until years later! i thought she was turning me on to obscure underground music!
	1:36am Tome: ... there's now place like home,,, right here ,,
	1:37am Alejandroool: such a great sounding recording - excellent amount of reverb, great stereo mix...
	1:37am coelacanth: Aleja, rage against the machine, s.t.p.,pearl jam,soul coughing,black crows.... ....
	1:38am coelacanth: this whole album was pretty amazing.
	1:39am Alejandroool: yes - CC, played some of that music in various parent's basements in 1996...hah
	1:41am Dave Bombay: That jefferson airplane track caught me off guard in a wonderful way!
	1:58am coelacanth: hey Aleja, not to beat down a subject,but lest i contradict myself in the future and it looks like i'm fulla shit!... i want to say that that 16 years wasn't spent in a vacuum. i did buy "surfer rosa" when it came out,for instants; and got into nirvana in '92. there must be others i'm not recalling. ...so, were you playing in a band in 1996?
	2:07am Alejandroool: aha no worries - hah nothing that would count, I was 15 yrs old in 1996
	2:08am Alejandroool: still even learning how to play an instrument I'm sure
	2:12am rw: Nick! Hate to do it but I'm cutting out early because my eyes hurt and I'm not getting any work done. Always dig your shows. I may have to listen to the remainder on my way to work tomorrow morning. Have a good week/weekend everybody!
	2:13am coelacanth: okay. i completely forgot to tell you that that song is excellent!
	2:14am coelacanth: good evening rw.
	2:14am Alejandroool: nite rw
	2:17am Nick Name: been busy...thx all for checking in / hanging
	2:18am Nick Name: thx rw - have a good weekend
	2:18am coelacanth: A, you mentioned fugazi,so sure enough i thought of fugazi... i like fugazi- and i'm not sure i would've thought of it if you hadn't said it. so- "influenced by" but not mimicking= good.
	2:25am coelacanth: yes i need to check out too Nick. Thanks Great program! ciao all.
	2:25am Alejandroool: well thx CC for checking it out. we are self aware about that, but not in a bad way, I try very little to describe music when involved in making it..
	2:26am Alejandroool: nite cc!
	2:27am Nick Name: thx coelacanth , have a good weekend
	2:48am Ken From Hyde Park: It'd be neat if someone could translate this whale talk and show us what they're saying.
	2:54am Alejandroool: hopefully something useful
	2:55am ausmanx: the whale is asking if it can come into the FMU studio and do a live session...
	3:00am JakeGould: @ausmanx: Be cool to adopt a WFMU whale.
	3:03am ausmanx: next year's mascot!
	3:04am Nick Name: ha ha
	3:04am Nick Name: thx all - have a good weekend
