	♥ 9:38am Handy Haversack: Quentin Crisp's phone number used to be in the Manhattan phone book. A friend and I called once to express our admiration, and he invited us over for tea! Super nice person.
	9:39am Doug in JC: Did you go? That's pretty cool
	♥ 9:39am Webhamster Henry: @Handy I think I met him once with Sylvia Miles in the Mudd Club the only time I went in there.
	♥ 9:40am waters7: Hellooo!
	♥ 9:40am LastVisibleDog: Wow, really enjoying this.
	♥ 9:40am Passaic River Blues: @Handy: Holy shit--that is extremely and enviably awesome.
	9:41am Sylvia (France-NYC): Hello Trouble, listeners
	♥ 9:44am βrian: Felt like Jacques Pépin this morning when I made a simple omelet with paper-thin slices of zucchini and caramelized red onions.
	♥ 9:45am Handy Haversack: Of course we went! Tea!
	9:45am Reno D: Trouble and Irene! One has favorites and these are.
	♥ 9:45am northguineahills: I missed jimmy somerville. Oddly enough, I have the orlando sndtrk (especially since I find myself in orlando, fl).
	♥ 9:46am Bobby: This Aki Tsuyuko track can just keep on going. I’d take 6 more rooms.
	9:47am Deborah: Was so meditative at 9:42!
	♥ 9:49am Trouble: good morning @reno! nice of you to say...
	♥ 9:50am northguineahills: @βrian: when I'm able to cook, I feel more like Julie Chile (minus the voice). Stuck w/ leftover pizza hut (I wish I had a kitchen, my kitchenware, and spices). Most 'restaurant' food kills my gut.
	♥ 9:50am βrian: @NGH: Have you crossed paths with Willem Dafoe down there?
	♥ 9:50am Yes: hello everyone
	9:50am nah: @βrian: That sounds so good
	9:52am Peter in SEA: Bon jour Trouble and listeners, saw "Alex Wheatle", Steve McQueen, Small Axe, last night, so good!
	♥ 9:52am βrian: I've some good single-pot cooking when in camping mode. It involved a lot of effort, though.
	♥ 9:54am northguineahills: @βrian: Juilia Child actually did a children's record w/ an orchestra, called, "Tubby the Tuba". (why, yes, I have it). I never noticed famous people unless they were at a concert, so, no Dafoe sighting (been holed up almost a year anyways)
	♥ 9:54am βrian: @NGH: I think of you when I reach for the red pepper flakes, but 7yrOld has her eye on me. "Not too shpicy!"
	♥ 9:55am Trouble: bonjour @peter! i have been thinking about you lots: how is life in the classroom? we watched 'the chambermaid' (2018 la camarista) for my film club this week, it was fabulous!
	♥ 9:55am northguineahills: @βrian: When i was 6, I discovered Tabasco. I never looked back....
	♥ 9:57am northguineahills: been collecting chilies and spices from the Thai restaurant across the street to make other food palatable.
	9:58am Peter in SEA: @trouble. It's next to impossible to remain 6' away. We are hybrid, week on in-person, week off in remote, this week remote, and there are always 6-8 students that will always be remote so navigating between students in the room and those on the big screen from home is...challenging... And then there's the issue of supplies to in school and those always remote...Vaccines probably by the end of the month out here. Onward and Upward with the Arts!
	♥ 9:59am Trouble: frontier co-op has this fab blend called turmeric twist: turmeric, black pepper, cinnamon. sweet with a little kick. try that in hot chocolate! snap
	♥ 10:00am Trouble: speedy vaccine to you @ peter! i have zero idea when i might get it, even though i am 1b as an educator.
	♥ 10:01am Trouble: @peter: i was hoping we would be back in the classroom before the end of the year. at this point, who knows
	♥ 10:01am northguineahills: I put chili pepper (the good stuff) in my partner's hot chocolate (melted dark mexican chocolate, soy milk, and agave).
	♥ 10:02am waters7: :)
	♥ 10:02am northguineahills: (agave syrup for sweetness)
	♥ 10:03am YETI BOB: Hi Trouble. I was going to keep a low profile today, but you played Aksak Maboul and I had to comment. Great show so far!
	♥ 10:04am YETI BOB: (this music is how you summon the yeti, in case you were wondering)
	♥ 10:04am Trouble: merci@yeti bob!
	♥ 10:04am Trouble: hola@emily!
	10:04am Listening Out There: Just got here. Good morning from out West...
	10:06am Peter in SEA: @trouble fingers crossed; it is wonderful to see the students but we are not in the art studio :-( it's not designed for 20 students 6' apart in desks, so I am on a cart..:-/ yeah..."challenging"
	10:06am Listening Out There: @Peter: "Art in a cart"?
	♥ 10:07am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and trouble makers!
	10:08am Peter in SEA: Hey @waters7! :-)
	♥ 10:08am Trouble: so sorry to hear @peter. for me it's all about supporting the students, art is second to that right now. sometimes that's painful.
	♥ 10:09am βrian: @NGH: She does have bold tastes, in some regards: pickled herring, kalamata olives and the accompanying brine, etc. But she balks at significant picante-ness. And she extravagantly praises my hot chocolate, and that always has some cinnamon and cayenne. So she's making progress.
	♥ 10:10am Jason from Houston: ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱
	10:11am Peter in SEA: @listening out there :Chekhov's story "In the Cart" (also called The Schoolmistress"): recommended.;-)
	♥ 10:12am northguineahills: @βrian: stop teasing me w/ pickled herring (love it).
	10:13am Martinibomb: I gave up grid drawing in my teens <3
	♥ 10:13am Jason from Houston: And their cameras are not on. LOL
	10:14am Peter in SEA: @trouble..... sigh.....goggle classroom.....
	♥ 10:14am βrian: "Histoire de fesses" ??
	♥ 10:14am Trouble: i abhor grid drawing. in this covid space i thought it would be the fastest way to give them a jump into drawing. ugh
	♥ 10:14am northguineahills: The only grid drawing I've done before was statistical graphs (had graph paper since elementary school).
	10:14am Peter in SEA: @Jason from H: Yes!!! "Can you please turn your camera on when you are SPEAKING to me?"
	♥ 10:15am Jason from Houston: Hang tight, good teachers out there.
	♥ 10:15am Skurky: When you said "painting peppers" I imagined exactly what that kid did.
	♥ 10:16am Jason from Houston: Peter in SEA, A: No.
	10:17am JDWilson: virtual school = virtual students
	10:19am winston legthigh: whats up @ngh! the "big game" is coming to a city near u :-)
	♥ 10:19am Listener Gregory: I am constantly in danger of forgetting about Abbey Lincoln and Arto Lindsay, so I really appreciate your playing them.
	10:20am Listening Out There: @Peter, et al: Art in a Cart should not of course be confused with Sheep in a Jeep....("Beep beep, sheep in a jeep on a hill that's steep...")
	♥ 10:22am bigkafka: seconding, listener g about arto. i always think of DNA and that sort of thing and forget about his lovely later brazilian stuff.
	♥ 10:22am Mick: What a beautiful start to the show this morning! "Brought to you by the letter A" When I heard the Abbey Lincoln i thought "well, I'm going to need to visit the chat today..." Great to see the shot of Simone Leigh in the studio too - love her work on the high line plinth
	♥ 10:24am Trouble: gracias@mick. @listener gregory/bigkafka: i love arto and abbey's voices so much. i could listen every day
	♥ 10:25am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I wasn't particularly familar with Abby Lincoln but then she put out a record that had Pat Metheny on it. Folks told me that she wasn't in particularly fine form on that one (I loved her voice there) so I started looking backward. Oh yes...!
	10:26am Peter in SEA: arto lindsay's story is interesting. I wonder what's up with his old Modern Lovers' partner Peter Scherer....? That's where I first heard him, NYC 1987(?)
	♥ 10:26am northguineahills: missed this Arto album.... Arto did grow up in Brazil. He once commented me on a gory Dinosaur Jr tee....
	10:27am Listening Out There: @WoodsOfNH: Look for her duet recording with Hank Jones, When There Is Love (1993). Great voice, wonderful piano....
	♥ 10:28am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Listening Out There: Will do. And the album I was referring to is A Turtle's dream.
	♥ 10:29am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	♥ 10:29am LastVisibleDog: what a gorgeous track!
	♥ 10:31am northguineahills: The Apartments, not to be confused w/ the Apartment Ensemble....
	♥ 10:33am Irene Trudel: WoodsOfNH, I found the same thing when I first heard Abby on our local jazz station, vocally very flat. It was a tune from very late in her career. My husband urged me to go back to her earlier albums and I was transformed. I especially love Lincoln's work on (then husband) Max Roach's Freedom Now Suite.
	♥ 10:36am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): There are definitely voices that I can use a dose of every single day: Abbey Lincoln, Edith Piaf, Nina Simone, Cassandra Wilson...
	10:37am alan the painter: Well, there you are. Having trouble keeping up my stream. moved my act around placing my speaker mouth atop the ole air duct for added bass. So happy to have you, Trouble, focusing my mindscape. thank you for this stream of consciousness.
	10:37am Androu B.: Good morning, Trouble, everyone! That Apartments track reminded me of The New Radicals for the chord progression.
	♥ 10:38am Trouble: sounds like ace problem solving @alanthe painter
	♥ 10:38am YETI BOB: @Peter in SEA: Sorry, but are you sure you meant Modern and not Ambitious?
	♥ 10:39am p/b: GM Trouble and FMUall everywhere - big love to all
	10:40am Joey joe joe: Love this “First Cut” version
	♥ 10:40am Hubig Pie: The Koobas were Mersey beats?
	♥ 10:40am unpopularfred: hmm, the koobas. I had guessed Vanilla Fudge
	10:43am Androu B.: I wonder how many versions of "The First Cut" there has ever been recorded in all of music history so far. I know of the Eurythmics version and the most famous hit version by a particular country singer that i'm not particular about.
	♥ 10:48am unpopularfred: @Androu B. - P. P. Arnold was first, I believe, and best, I also believe. I had Rod Stewart pegged as most famous, but that's the world I live in
	10:48am Joey joe joe: @Androu—dozens and dozens I think. My first memory is Rod Stewart (!) from me ma, but I’ve also heard a couple old reggae versions. Putting looking up original on the day’s to-do list.
	10:48am Doug in JC: Whosampled lists 35 covers, there are undoubtedly more that didn't make the list
	♥ 10:48am Trouble: @ androu b,the PP Arnold original is the bar for me. no one has touched it...
	10:50am Robbie Darling: Mernin"
	♥ 10:50am tim from champaign (now washington): Hi Trouble and everyone.
	10:52am morphe': Re: Quentin Crisp - saw him one day on his stoop (3rd or 4th street) and Said hello. We chatted for a minute and shook hands good-bye.. Lovely, soft spoken person. He had the 2nd most softest hands in the world i have Known... The softest ever were Klauss Naomi's. Did not know him either but met him after a show of his... hello and goodbye and a handshake and a thanks for the great show... I turned to my friend and said,"His hand was so soft.. It was like shaking hands with a warm cloud..." Both hands softer than a newborn's....
	♥ 10:53am Hubig Pie: Cat Stevens penned the song and did a fine version hisself
	♥ 10:53am Listener Gregory: @Tim from champaign (now washington), may I ask you what happened to Champaign? I am formerly of there too, and I always liked thinking that you were carrying on there. Is there a chance you will return?
	10:54am Malcolm: janet kay for all the rocking lovers
	♥ 10:54am alanr: Just wanted to butt in and say....this is quite a lovely show this morning, while watching the snow melt outside into big messy puddles that may freeze tonight.
	♥ 10:54am mlsgrrl: Thanks for this lovely show this morning, Trouble.
	♥ 10:55am northguineahills: lover's rock!
	♥ 10:55am alanr: lovely is the word!!!
	♥ 10:55am mlsgrrl: Consensus: LOVELY
	10:55am Listener Dayffid: I concur with @alanr beautiful show as always
	♥ 10:56am Handy Haversack: Update: I have been listening while attending this all-day metadata conference. The perfect crime! Show sounds wonderful, Trouble. That "Tarot Card" song -- hoooooo!
	10:56am morphe': Hubig Pie : "... Cat Stevens penned the song..." which song???
	♥ 10:56am Trouble: muchos gracias@misgrrl, alanr & listener dayffid!
	10:57am Malcolm: don't normally celebrate valentines day but this year i've got my partner a janet kay LP and a Caroll Thompson LP
	♥ 10:57am Hubig Pie: Morphe, 1st cut be the deepest
	♥ 10:58am Trouble: merci and my condolences@handy...
	♥ 10:58am Trouble: right on! @ malcolm
	10:59am morphe': Trouble, great show and loved the art class pepper painting story... Will relay to yer fellow, frustrated on-line art teacher, Butterman, tomorrow...
	10:59am Marco Esquandolas: @WoodsofNewHampshire: I like your list of vocalists. I also never get tired of the voices of Allison Kraus and Nora Jones
	♥ 10:59am TomDash: Good morning Trouble and all...LOVING this Kelenkye Band track - perfect soundtrack for my coffee.
	10:59am morphe': Hubig, thanks... did not know that...
	♥ 11:00am Trouble: howdy@tom dash!
	11:00am headcleaner: J'apprécie beaucoup ce joli programme de radio que tu as créé pour nous aujourd'hui, Trouble
	♥ 11:01am Trouble: merci bien@headcleaner!
	♥ 11:02am βrian: Mais où sont les oiseaux ?
	♥ 11:04am tim from champaign (now washington): Hey Listener Gregory - Howdy! - Did we ever cross paths? My apologies if we've met or talked before and I don't remember. Re: returning to Champaign. It's highly unlikely. I was there from 2006-2018. It's a perfectly fine place. I particularly enjoyed having access to the university cultural perks. The lack of water, hills, trees and nature in central Illinois really got me down. I lived in Michigan until age 33. Easy access to nature was a big part of my life. Where I live currently I can see 3 different mountain ranges, I'm minutes away from complete immersion in nature. I see seals, migrating birds and running salmon regularly. Plus I'm a ferry ride away from Seattle. I'd love to be back in the midwest someday but I'm more keen on northern midwest. How about you?
	♥ 11:05am unpopularfred: @ morphe' - the first cut is the deepest
	11:05am headcleaner: ne t'inquiète pas, βrian! ils vont revenir bientôt!
	♥ 11:06am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Marco Esquandolas: Agreed! Got to see Nora play one time and she did not disappoint. Opener Gillian Welch wasn't too bad either. ;-)
	♥ 11:07am βrian: @tim from champaign: Where in Michigan? (Have I already asked?)
	♥ 11:08am Listener Gregory: @tim from champaign, Yes, your reaction to East Central Illinois is exactly like mine. I was there through the 90s, so we couldn't have met. They did have a good community radio station then. We'll have to recruit another listener to post from there to keep us connected.
	11:08am morphe': Fred - El Popular - thanks... As I said to Hubig ... never knew that....
	♥ 11:08am TomDash: big fan of Call My Agent (and Charlotte Gainsbourg)
	11:09am Peter in SEA: @YETI: d'oh,ja ja, YES Ambitious Lovers of course! Ambitious! apologies to both Jonathon and Arto! ;-)
	11:10am rob in charlotte: What’s the French thing called?
	11:10am Marco Esquandolas: @WoodsofNH- that's super cool! I was fortunate to have seen Allison Kraus twice, but not Nora Jones. Someday.
	11:10am Peter in SEA: @Trouble: So cool to see the armature of that Simone Leigh piece!
	♥ 11:11am northguineahills: @handy: back in the day, I used to use DublinCore.com for my tertiary metatdata instructions....
	♥ 11:11am LastVisibleDog: June Tyson!!!!
	♥ 11:11am Webhamster Henry: I can't deal with French apostrophes and swallowed word ends.
	♥ 11:12am Trouble: learn french with alexa @rob in charlotte
	♥ 11:12am tim from champaign (now washington): @Brian - Grand Rapids until 18, them Kalamazoo until 33. @Gregory - Was it WEFT? I think WEFT unfortunately went under a few years ago. My good buddy in Champaign worked at the Highdive, Cafe Espresso and went to all the shows in the 90s so we may have some mutual connections.
	♥ 11:12am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Trouble Have you see Painting With John? Oh man, so funny...and I love that dude's painting style.
	♥ 11:13am tim from champaign (now washington): What LastVisibleDog said.
	♥ 11:13am Tank Top: ..also on Sun Ra's "My Brother the Wind Vol 2"
	♥ 11:13am Trouble: no@woods ofNH, i don't have HBO. will have to wait a while til i can watch it somewhere else. i loved fishing with john. He is a true character!
	♥ 11:15am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Trouble We didn't have it either, but signed up for HBO Max just for this. Turns out, there is a _ton_ over other stuff on there. (To add to the other tons of stuff everywhere these days)
	♥ 11:15am Listener Gregory: @tim from champaign, yes it was WEFT. Sorry to hear that it has died. It was a great outlet for local dj's and to hear jazz and blues.
	11:17am still b/p: If Bob Ross was still around, having him guest on Lurie's series would be great. Or terrible. I haven't seen the show, but Lurie specifically and sourly challenges Ross's painting attitude.
	♥ 11:17am Trouble: today's picture atop of the page/artist, simone leigh, is representing the US at the next venice biennale
	♥ 11:18am bigkafka: i left the room and missed a two-fer of june tyson. nooooooooooo
	♥ 11:19am Andrea: happy birthday Robert Wyatt. You signed my curtain, in my mind.
	♥ 11:19am LastVisibleDog: this and rock bottom...
	♥ 11:20am tim from champaign (now washington): Oh wow! I was not aware of Matching Mole. Thanks Trouble!
	♥ 11:20am eºIºk: If I may ask the board op a silly q: hey Matt, which seasons of Survivor have you watched so far? I love that dumb show.
	♥ 11:20am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @still b/p: If you see the show, he's sort of joking...goes on to list a bunch of celebs who thought they could paint but couldn't. The show is pretty open-hearted. And hilarious.
	♥ 11:20am LastVisibleDog: @Tim--this whole album is great. I like the rest of MM, but the first album is on par with Rock Bottom, it's incredible.
	11:24am Slaboch: Lovin' this tribute set!
	♥ 11:24am Trouble: hey @michael! gracias
	♥ 11:25am βrian: Thanks, Trouble. I gotta run. See some of you later: Continental Subway wfmu.org...
	♥ 11:26am Rick from SC: I can never get enough robert wyatt
	11:27am Malcolm: alfie?
	11:27am Emory Buffinstuff: Never cqn 'unsee' an artist in their studiio. thanks DJ v This Is The Modern World with Trouble
	11:28am rw: Good morning! I'm with Rick from SC. Excellent song choices!!
	♥ 11:28am YETI BOB: this one is a heart-breaker.
	♥ 11:29am YETI BOB: all of "Comicopera", really. I love that album but can't bear to listen to it very often
	♥ 11:30am LastVisibleDog: alifie my larder
	♥ 11:30am tim from champaign (now washington): I'm embarrassed to admit that I didn't get deep into solo Rpbert Wyatt until 2020. I have SOft Machine records and was always pereferally interested in the solo work. It was Wyatt's Chic covered that pulled me in.
	♥ 11:31am Threemoons: New to this Wyatt guy; getting Leonard Cohen vibes!!
	♥ 11:32am YETI BOB: 3Moons - one of my heros (and I think many people's hero)
	11:33am Emory Buffinstuff: @WoodsOfNH. So goes the eternal struggle: musicians that want to be painters vs painters that wish to be musicians....geez, make up your mind LOL. Joni Mitchell nearly pulled it off though.
	♥ 11:33am LastVisibleDog: Wow Trouble! I only managed to see the Arkestra a couple years ago here in LA.
	♥ 11:34am Webhamster Henry: I want to hear a bossa nova cover of "I wanna be sedated".
	♥ 11:35am Hubig Pie: This bossa nova Stones cover givin' me the warm fuzzies
	♥ 11:35am Trouble: i lived in Providence until 1989, sun ra was managed by a guy who owned Lupo's heartbreak hotel, sun ra played Prov. LOTS!
	♥ 11:37am tim from champaign (now washington): @Emory - An even finer line is musicians who think they're novelists or poets and visa versa. The bottom of the barrel is actors who think they're musicians. coughJohnnyDeppcough*
	♥ 11:37am Listener Gregory: Trouble, I also lived in Providence (and Cranston) '82-'90, but I only saw Sun Ra in a concert at the park. That was memorable, however.
	11:37am headcleaner: beleza!
	11:40am Emory Buffinstuff: @Tim, haven't heard coughJohnnyDepp'scough* tunes. Thanks for the warning :) If he pens a song, "Edward Sissorhands" I'll give it a listen.
	11:40am Buddha of Suburbia: Trouble and Listener Gregory, I live in CT. but spent a lot of time in Providence. It's about 35 minutes from me.
	♥ 11:40am mlsgrrl: @Handy I, too, am in a metadata webinar! Suspect it is not the same as you. Trouble plays music for metadata.
	♥ 11:41am unpopularfred: @ Webhamster Henry - I was once in a wedding band, and we would sometimes play a bossa nova version of "I wanna be sedated" during the dinner set if we ran out of songs. I also once worked it in as the bows music for a play I wrote the music for, which had included the original reording
	♥ 11:41am Listener Gregory: "Metadata webinar" is a horrible combination of words.
	♥ 11:41am eºIºk: Also juggling metadata. Sounds great, Trouble!
	♥ 11:42am Trouble: @buddha of suburbia: do you visit paper nautilus books in prov? or in your ear records in warren? excellent resources!
	♥ 11:42am captain beef fart: I like Willie Vlautin's work. Both novels and song, though I like the written more.
	11:43am Emory Buffinstuff: @Budda in my humble opinion there is some sort of supernatural good energy in the Cape Cod area. Something truly powerful. Energy center or whatever you kids call those things these days.
	11:44am morphe': Sun Ra at SQUAT Theatre 14th Street: http://sunraarkive.blogspot.com/2008/06/sun-ra-at-squat-theatre-1979-to-1981.html Doc: SPACE IS THE PLACE... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCalqwsicls
	11:45am still b/p: Other Simone Leigh work just glanced at now is wonderful. And will read a bit about her later. Thanks for pointing us. Have to stop sometime soon in Providence and see if impressions are much different after so much tme and "renaissance" since I passed through or saw concerts there in the 70s.
	♥ 11:46am jmr3: so much metadata - this must be THE wfmu show for librarians
	11:47am Malcolm: i'm working on a troublesome metadata csv form... what are the chances
	♥ 11:47am Listener Gregory: We need to start the metadata webinar resistance—right NOW!
	11:47am charlie: Del-Bs!
	♥ 11:50am Phillippe Bastille: other folks in meetings talking about metadata? Just got out of one myself
	♥ 11:50am tim from champaign (now washington): Jim Jarmusch's group?
	11:50am Slaboch: @Trouble the Arkestra is still booked by Jack!
	11:51am Emory Buffinstuff: Webinar Resistance?! YOUR CANCELLED! DEPLATFORMED!
	♥ 11:51am Trouble: no way@slaboch: that's great to hear!!he is a doll
	11:51am Henri: Give the drummer channel is not working in the Android app. It streams fine in browser
	♥ 11:52am Trouble: yes@ tim from champaign
	11:53am Slaboch: Yeah he is super sweet. We had the Arkestra on the books for a Storehouse show in 2020 that got postponed. He was so great to work with to make that dream "kinda" come true...
	♥ 11:53am YETI BOB: Robert, and now Kevin. Allright!
	♥ 11:53am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Trouble! Very glad to have been listening. Thanks, Skeleteam. Be well, Troubled Ones.

	11:55am morphe': Thanks Trouble and all... !!! Handy.. If you can make 1/2 up the Willyburg one day soon ... I can give you a bottle of that decent red ...
	♥ 11:55am tim from champaign (now washington): Thanks, Trouble!
	♥ 11:55am Trouble: thanks for sitting in this morning! see you next week
	♥ 11:56am Handy Haversack: Thanks, morph! Busy these next days but let me see what's possible.
	♥ 11:56am -Ken: @Henri, you might want to try the WoofMoo app in the Google play store, instead of the official WFMU app in there which is partially broken
	11:56am morphe': Handy - give a shout on the other side...
	11:57am Malcolm: nice show trouble, thanks
	♥ 11:57am John L: Kevin Ayers and Robert Wyatt in the same program. Both pivotal to the change in my teenage musical taste. When I was growing up, on Long Island, I would stay up late listening to the radio. There was a college station, somewhere in CT, that first introduced me to their music and I haven't been the same since. Wish I could remember the name of that station.
	♥ 11:58am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	11:58am Buddha of Suburbia: Bye bye gang! No, Trouble, I'll have to check out those places. I usually frequented the music scene. I'm talking way back. Then lived in NYC for 12 years. Hope they're still around. (ooph). Have a good day everyone! Bye bye Trouble! Bye Trouble Makers! Great show!!
	11:58am Androu B.: @Trouble Thanks for the info on "First Cut" and turning me on to Whosampled. I just might be using that site for future reference. Take care!

	♥ 12:00pm Irene Trudel: Beautiful show as always, Trouble!
	♥ 12:01pm Threemoons: Thank you as always
	12:05pm Henri: @-Ken ooooh! Thanks for pointing to woof moo! Seems like a superior app! However, it neither is streaming Give the drummer, but all the other stations play fine. But that's all right, I'm sure it'll get fixed soon enough and I always have web. I only recently discovered WFMU (via Steve Guttenberg youtube video) and am simply in Love! A true music lover's heaven. So inspiring music and always so fresh! Really really helps with keeping mind at ease too, as there's always some new sweet music for brain to decipher

	9:45am Reno D: Trouble and Irene! One has favorites and these are.

	9:47am Deborah: Was so meditative at 9:42!
	♥ 9:49am Trouble: good morning @reno! nice of you to say...
	♥ 9:50am northguineahills: @βrian: when I'm able to cook, I feel more like Julie Chile (minus the voice). Stuck w/ leftover pizza hut (I wish I had a kitchen, my kitchenware, and spices). Most 'restaurant' food kills my gut.
	♥ 9:50am βrian: @NGH: Have you crossed paths with Willem Dafoe down there?
	♥ 9:50am Yes: hello everyone
	9:50am nah: @βrian: That sounds so good
	9:52am Peter in SEA: Bon jour Trouble and listeners, saw "Alex Wheatle", Steve McQueen, Small Axe, last night, so good!
	♥ 9:52am βrian: I've some good single-pot cooking when in camping mode. It involved a lot of effort, though.
	♥ 9:54am northguineahills: @βrian: Juilia Child actually did a children's record w/ an orchestra, called, "Tubby the Tuba". (why, yes, I have it). I never noticed famous people unless they were at a concert, so, no Dafoe sighting (been holed up almost a year anyways)
	♥ 9:54am βrian: @NGH: I think of you when I reach for the red pepper flakes, but 7yrOld has her eye on me. "Not too shpicy!"
	♥ 9:55am Trouble: bonjour @peter! i have been thinking about you lots: how is life in the classroom? we watched 'the chambermaid' (2018 la camarista) for my film club this week, it was fabulous!
	♥ 9:55am northguineahills: @βrian: When i was 6, I discovered Tabasco. I never looked back....
	♥ 9:57am northguineahills: been collecting chilies and spices from the Thai restaurant across the street to make other food palatable.
	9:58am Peter in SEA: @trouble. It's next to impossible to remain 6' away. We are hybrid, week on in-person, week off in remote, this week remote, and there are always 6-8 students that will always be remote so navigating between students in the room and those on the big screen from home is...challenging... And then there's the issue of supplies to in school and those always remote...Vaccines probably by the end of the month out here. Onward and Upward with the Arts!
	♥ 9:59am Trouble: frontier co-op has this fab blend called turmeric twist: turmeric, black pepper, cinnamon. sweet with a little kick. try that in hot chocolate! snap
	♥ 10:00am Trouble: speedy vaccine to you @ peter! i have zero idea when i might get it, even though i am 1b as an educator.
	♥ 10:01am Trouble: @peter: i was hoping we would be back in the classroom before the end of the year. at this point, who knows
	♥ 10:01am northguineahills: I put chili pepper (the good stuff) in my partner's hot chocolate (melted dark mexican chocolate, soy milk, and agave).
	♥ 10:02am waters7: :)
	♥ 10:02am northguineahills: (agave syrup for sweetness)
	♥ 10:03am YETI BOB: Hi Trouble. I was going to keep a low profile today, but you played Aksak Maboul and I had to comment. Great show so far!
	♥ 10:04am YETI BOB: (this music is how you summon the yeti, in case you were wondering)
	♥ 10:04am Trouble: merci@yeti bob!
	♥ 10:04am Trouble: hola@emily!
	10:04am Listening Out There: Just got here. Good morning from out West...
	10:06am Peter in SEA: @trouble fingers crossed; it is wonderful to see the students but we are not in the art studio :-( it's not designed for 20 students 6' apart in desks, so I am on a cart..:-/ yeah..."challenging"
	10:06am Listening Out There: @Peter: "Art in a cart"?
	♥ 10:07am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and trouble makers!
	10:08am Peter in SEA: Hey @waters7! :-)
	♥ 10:08am Trouble: so sorry to hear @peter. for me it's all about supporting the students, art is second to that right now. sometimes that's painful.
	♥ 10:09am βrian: @NGH: She does have bold tastes, in some regards: pickled herring, kalamata olives and the accompanying brine, etc. But she balks at significant picante-ness. And she extravagantly praises my hot chocolate, and that always has some cinnamon and cayenne. So she's making progress.
	♥ 10:10am Jason from Houston: ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱
	10:11am Peter in SEA: @listening out there :Chekhov's story "In the Cart" (also called The Schoolmistress"): recommended.;-)
	♥ 10:12am northguineahills: @βrian: stop teasing me w/ pickled herring (love it).
	10:13am Martinibomb: I gave up grid drawing in my teens <3
	♥ 10:13am Jason from Houston: And their cameras are not on. LOL
	10:14am Peter in SEA: @trouble..... sigh.....goggle classroom.....
	♥ 10:14am βrian: "Histoire de fesses" ??
	♥ 10:14am Trouble: i abhor grid drawing. in this covid space i thought it would be the fastest way to give them a jump into drawing. ugh
	♥ 10:14am northguineahills: The only grid drawing I've done before was statistical graphs (had graph paper since elementary school).
	10:14am Peter in SEA: @Jason from H: Yes!!! "Can you please turn your camera on when you are SPEAKING to me?"
	♥ 10:15am Jason from Houston: Hang tight, good teachers out there.
	♥ 10:15am Skurky: When you said "painting peppers" I imagined exactly what that kid did.
	♥ 10:16am Jason from Houston: Peter in SEA, A: No.
	10:17am JDWilson: virtual school = virtual students
	10:19am winston legthigh: whats up @ngh! the "big game" is coming to a city near u :-)
	♥ 10:19am Listener Gregory: I am constantly in danger of forgetting about Abbey Lincoln and Arto Lindsay, so I really appreciate your playing them.
	10:20am Listening Out There: @Peter, et al: Art in a Cart should not of course be confused with Sheep in a Jeep....("Beep beep, sheep in a jeep on a hill that's steep...")
	♥ 10:22am bigkafka: seconding, listener g about arto. i always think of DNA and that sort of thing and forget about his lovely later brazilian stuff.
	♥ 10:22am Mick: What a beautiful start to the show this morning! "Brought to you by the letter A" When I heard the Abbey Lincoln i thought "well, I'm going to need to visit the chat today..." Great to see the shot of Simone Leigh in the studio too - love her work on the high line plinth
	♥ 10:24am Trouble: gracias@mick. @listener gregory/bigkafka: i love arto and abbey's voices so much. i could listen every day
	♥ 10:25am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I wasn't particularly familar with Abby Lincoln but then she put out a record that had Pat Metheny on it. Folks told me that she wasn't in particularly fine form on that one (I loved her voice there) so I started looking backward. Oh yes...!
	10:26am Peter in SEA: arto lindsay's story is interesting. I wonder what's up with his old Modern Lovers' partner Peter Scherer....? That's where I first heard him, NYC 1987(?)
	♥ 10:26am northguineahills: missed this Arto album.... Arto did grow up in Brazil. He once commented me on a gory Dinosaur Jr tee....
	10:27am Listening Out There: @WoodsOfNH: Look for her duet recording with Hank Jones, When There Is Love (1993). Great voice, wonderful piano....
	♥ 10:28am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Listening Out There: Will do. And the album I was referring to is A Turtle's dream.
	♥ 10:29am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	♥ 10:29am LastVisibleDog: what a gorgeous track!
	♥ 10:31am northguineahills: The Apartments, not to be confused w/ the Apartment Ensemble....
	♥ 10:33am Irene Trudel: WoodsOfNH, I found the same thing when I first heard Abby on our local jazz station, vocally very flat. It was a tune from very late in her career. My husband urged me to go back to her earlier albums and I was transformed. I especially love Lincoln's work on (then husband) Max Roach's Freedom Now Suite.
	♥ 10:36am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): There are definitely voices that I can use a dose of every single day: Abbey Lincoln, Edith Piaf, Nina Simone, Cassandra Wilson...
	10:37am alan the painter: Well, there you are. Having trouble keeping up my stream. moved my act around placing my speaker mouth atop the ole air duct for added bass. So happy to have you, Trouble, focusing my mindscape. thank you for this stream of consciousness.
	10:37am Androu B.: Good morning, Trouble, everyone! That Apartments track reminded me of The New Radicals for the chord progression.
	♥ 10:38am Trouble: sounds like ace problem solving @alanthe painter
	♥ 10:38am YETI BOB: @Peter in SEA: Sorry, but are you sure you meant Modern and not Ambitious?
	♥ 10:39am p/b: GM Trouble and FMUall everywhere - big love to all
	10:40am Joey joe joe: Love this “First Cut” version
	♥ 10:40am Hubig Pie: The Koobas were Mersey beats?
	♥ 10:40am unpopularfred: hmm, the koobas. I had guessed Vanilla Fudge
	10:43am Androu B.: I wonder how many versions of "The First Cut" there has ever been recorded in all of music history so far. I know of the Eurythmics version and the most famous hit version by a particular country singer that i'm not particular about.
	♥ 10:48am unpopularfred: @Androu B. - P. P. Arnold was first, I believe, and best, I also believe. I had Rod Stewart pegged as most famous, but that's the world I live in
	10:48am Joey joe joe: @Androu—dozens and dozens I think. My first memory is Rod Stewart (!) from me ma, but I’ve also heard a couple old reggae versions. Putting looking up original on the day’s to-do list.
	10:48am Doug in JC: Whosampled lists 35 covers, there are undoubtedly more that didn't make the list
	♥ 10:48am Trouble: @ androu b,the PP Arnold original is the bar for me. no one has touched it...
	10:50am Robbie Darling: Mernin"
	♥ 10:50am tim from champaign (now washington): Hi Trouble and everyone.
	10:52am morphe': Re: Quentin Crisp - saw him one day on his stoop (3rd or 4th street) and Said hello. We chatted for a minute and shook hands good-bye.. Lovely, soft spoken person. He had the 2nd most softest hands in the world i have Known... The softest ever were Klauss Naomi's. Did not know him either but met him after a show of his... hello and goodbye and a handshake and a thanks for the great show... I turned to my friend and said,"His hand was so soft.. It was like shaking hands with a warm cloud..." Both hands softer than a newborn's....
	♥ 10:53am Hubig Pie: Cat Stevens penned the song and did a fine version hisself
	♥ 10:53am Listener Gregory: @Tim from champaign (now washington), may I ask you what happened to Champaign? I am formerly of there too, and I always liked thinking that you were carrying on there. Is there a chance you will return?
	10:54am Malcolm: janet kay for all the rocking lovers
	♥ 10:54am alanr: Just wanted to butt in and say....this is quite a lovely show this morning, while watching the snow melt outside into big messy puddles that may freeze tonight.

	♥ 10:56am Handy Haversack: Update: I have been listening while attending this all-day metadata conference. The perfect crime! Show sounds wonderful, Trouble. That "Tarot Card" song -- hoooooo!
	10:56am morphe': Hubig Pie : "... Cat Stevens penned the song..." which song???
	♥ 10:56am Trouble: muchos gracias@misgrrl, alanr & listener dayffid!
	10:57am Malcolm: don't normally celebrate valentines day but this year i've got my partner a janet kay LP and a Caroll Thompson LP
	♥ 10:57am Hubig Pie: Morphe, 1st cut be the deepest
	♥ 10:58am Trouble: merci and my condolences@handy...
	♥ 10:58am Trouble: right on! @ malcolm
	10:59am morphe': Trouble, great show and loved the art class pepper painting story... Will relay to yer fellow, frustrated on-line art teacher, Butterman, tomorrow...
	10:59am Marco Esquandolas: @WoodsofNewHampshire: I like your list of vocalists. I also never get tired of the voices of Allison Kraus and Nora Jones
	♥ 10:59am TomDash: Good morning Trouble and all...LOVING this Kelenkye Band track - perfect soundtrack for my coffee.
	10:59am morphe': Hubig, thanks... did not know that...
	♥ 11:00am Trouble: howdy@tom dash!
	11:00am headcleaner: J'apprécie beaucoup ce joli programme de radio que tu as créé pour nous aujourd'hui, Trouble
	♥ 11:01am Trouble: merci bien@headcleaner!
	♥ 11:02am βrian: Mais où sont les oiseaux ?
	♥ 11:04am tim from champaign (now washington): Hey Listener Gregory - Howdy! - Did we ever cross paths? My apologies if we've met or talked before and I don't remember. Re: returning to Champaign. It's highly unlikely. I was there from 2006-2018. It's a perfectly fine place. I particularly enjoyed having access to the university cultural perks. The lack of water, hills, trees and nature in central Illinois really got me down. I lived in Michigan until age 33. Easy access to nature was a big part of my life. Where I live currently I can see 3 different mountain ranges, I'm minutes away from complete immersion in nature. I see seals, migrating birds and running salmon regularly. Plus I'm a ferry ride away from Seattle. I'd love to be back in the midwest someday but I'm more keen on northern midwest. How about you?
	♥ 11:05am unpopularfred: @ morphe' - the first cut is the deepest
	11:05am headcleaner: ne t'inquiète pas, βrian! ils vont revenir bientôt!
	♥ 11:06am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Marco Esquandolas: Agreed! Got to see Nora play one time and she did not disappoint. Opener Gillian Welch wasn't too bad either. ;-)
	♥ 11:07am βrian: @tim from champaign: Where in Michigan? (Have I already asked?)
	♥ 11:08am Listener Gregory: @tim from champaign, Yes, your reaction to East Central Illinois is exactly like mine. I was there through the 90s, so we couldn't have met. They did have a good community radio station then. We'll have to recruit another listener to post from there to keep us connected.
	11:08am morphe': Fred - El Popular - thanks... As I said to Hubig ... never knew that....
	♥ 11:08am TomDash: big fan of Call My Agent (and Charlotte Gainsbourg)
	11:09am Peter in SEA: @YETI: d'oh,ja ja, YES Ambitious Lovers of course! Ambitious! apologies to both Jonathon and Arto! ;-)
	11:10am rob in charlotte: What’s the French thing called?
	11:10am Marco Esquandolas: @WoodsofNH- that's super cool! I was fortunate to have seen Allison Kraus twice, but not Nora Jones. Someday.
	11:10am Peter in SEA: @Trouble: So cool to see the armature of that Simone Leigh piece!
	♥ 11:11am northguineahills: @handy: back in the day, I used to use DublinCore.com for my tertiary metatdata instructions....
	♥ 11:11am LastVisibleDog: June Tyson!!!!
	♥ 11:11am Webhamster Henry: I can't deal with French apostrophes and swallowed word ends.
	♥ 11:12am Trouble: learn french with alexa @rob in charlotte
	♥ 11:12am tim from champaign (now washington): @Brian - Grand Rapids until 18, them Kalamazoo until 33. @Gregory - Was it WEFT? I think WEFT unfortunately went under a few years ago. My good buddy in Champaign worked at the Highdive, Cafe Espresso and went to all the shows in the 90s so we may have some mutual connections.
	♥ 11:12am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Trouble Have you see Painting With John? Oh man, so funny...and I love that dude's painting style.
	♥ 11:13am tim from champaign (now washington): What LastVisibleDog said.
	♥ 11:13am Tank Top: ..also on Sun Ra's "My Brother the Wind Vol 2"
	♥ 11:13am Trouble: no@woods ofNH, i don't have HBO. will have to wait a while til i can watch it somewhere else. i loved fishing with john. He is a true character!
	♥ 11:15am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Trouble We didn't have it either, but signed up for HBO Max just for this. Turns out, there is a _ton_ over other stuff on there. (To add to the other tons of stuff everywhere these days)
	♥ 11:15am Listener Gregory: @tim from champaign, yes it was WEFT. Sorry to hear that it has died. It was a great outlet for local dj's and to hear jazz and blues.
	11:17am still b/p: If Bob Ross was still around, having him guest on Lurie's series would be great. Or terrible. I haven't seen the show, but Lurie specifically and sourly challenges Ross's painting attitude.
	♥ 11:17am Trouble: today's picture atop of the page/artist, simone leigh, is representing the US at the next venice biennale
	♥ 11:18am bigkafka: i left the room and missed a two-fer of june tyson. nooooooooooo
	♥ 11:19am Andrea: happy birthday Robert Wyatt. You signed my curtain, in my mind.
	♥ 11:19am LastVisibleDog: this and rock bottom...
	♥ 11:20am tim from champaign (now washington): Oh wow! I was not aware of Matching Mole. Thanks Trouble!
	♥ 11:20am eºIºk: If I may ask the board op a silly q: hey Matt, which seasons of Survivor have you watched so far? I love that dumb show.
	♥ 11:20am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @still b/p: If you see the show, he's sort of joking...goes on to list a bunch of celebs who thought they could paint but couldn't. The show is pretty open-hearted. And hilarious.
	♥ 11:20am LastVisibleDog: @Tim--this whole album is great. I like the rest of MM, but the first album is on par with Rock Bottom, it's incredible.
	11:24am Slaboch: Lovin' this tribute set!
	♥ 11:24am Trouble: hey @michael! gracias
	♥ 11:25am βrian: Thanks, Trouble. I gotta run. See some of you later: Continental Subway wfmu.org...
	♥ 11:26am Rick from SC: I can never get enough robert wyatt
	11:27am Malcolm: alfie?
	11:27am Emory Buffinstuff: Never cqn 'unsee' an artist in their studiio. thanks DJ v This Is The Modern World with Trouble
	11:28am rw: Good morning! I'm with Rick from SC. Excellent song choices!!
	♥ 11:28am YETI BOB: this one is a heart-breaker.
	♥ 11:29am YETI BOB: all of "Comicopera", really. I love that album but can't bear to listen to it very often
	♥ 11:30am LastVisibleDog: alifie my larder
	♥ 11:30am tim from champaign (now washington): I'm embarrassed to admit that I didn't get deep into solo Rpbert Wyatt until 2020. I have SOft Machine records and was always pereferally interested in the solo work. It was Wyatt's Chic covered that pulled me in.
	♥ 11:31am Threemoons: New to this Wyatt guy; getting Leonard Cohen vibes!!
	♥ 11:32am YETI BOB: 3Moons - one of my heros (and I think many people's hero)
	11:33am Emory Buffinstuff: @WoodsOfNH. So goes the eternal struggle: musicians that want to be painters vs painters that wish to be musicians....geez, make up your mind LOL. Joni Mitchell nearly pulled it off though.
	♥ 11:33am LastVisibleDog: Wow Trouble! I only managed to see the Arkestra a couple years ago here in LA.
	♥ 11:34am Webhamster Henry: I want to hear a bossa nova cover of "I wanna be sedated".
	♥ 11:35am Hubig Pie: This bossa nova Stones cover givin' me the warm fuzzies
	♥ 11:35am Trouble: i lived in Providence until 1989, sun ra was managed by a guy who owned Lupo's heartbreak hotel, sun ra played Prov. LOTS!
	♥ 11:37am tim from champaign (now washington): @Emory - An even finer line is musicians who think they're novelists or poets and visa versa. The bottom of the barrel is actors who think they're musicians. coughJohnnyDeppcough*
	♥ 11:37am Listener Gregory: Trouble, I also lived in Providence (and Cranston) '82-'90, but I only saw Sun Ra in a concert at the park. That was memorable, however.
	11:37am headcleaner: beleza!
	11:40am Emory Buffinstuff: @Tim, haven't heard coughJohnnyDepp'scough* tunes. Thanks for the warning :) If he pens a song, "Edward Sissorhands" I'll give it a listen.
	11:40am Buddha of Suburbia: Trouble and Listener Gregory, I live in CT. but spent a lot of time in Providence. It's about 35 minutes from me.
	♥ 11:40am mlsgrrl: @Handy I, too, am in a metadata webinar! Suspect it is not the same as you. Trouble plays music for metadata.
	♥ 11:41am unpopularfred: @ Webhamster Henry - I was once in a wedding band, and we would sometimes play a bossa nova version of "I wanna be sedated" during the dinner set if we ran out of songs. I also once worked it in as the bows music for a play I wrote the music for, which had included the original reording
	♥ 11:41am Listener Gregory: "Metadata webinar" is a horrible combination of words.
	♥ 11:41am eºIºk: Also juggling metadata. Sounds great, Trouble!
	♥ 11:42am Trouble: @buddha of suburbia: do you visit paper nautilus books in prov? or in your ear records in warren? excellent resources!
	♥ 11:42am captain beef fart: I like Willie Vlautin's work. Both novels and song, though I like the written more.
	11:43am Emory Buffinstuff: @Budda in my humble opinion there is some sort of supernatural good energy in the Cape Cod area. Something truly powerful. Energy center or whatever you kids call those things these days.
	11:44am morphe': Sun Ra at SQUAT Theatre 14th Street: http://sunraarkive.blogspot.com/2008/06/sun-ra-at-squat-theatre-1979-to-1981.html Doc: SPACE IS THE PLACE... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCalqwsicls
	11:45am still b/p: Other Simone Leigh work just glanced at now is wonderful. And will read a bit about her later. Thanks for pointing us. Have to stop sometime soon in Providence and see if impressions are much different after so much tme and "renaissance" since I passed through or saw concerts there in the 70s.
	♥ 11:46am jmr3: so much metadata - this must be THE wfmu show for librarians
	11:47am Malcolm: i'm working on a troublesome metadata csv form... what are the chances
	♥ 11:47am Listener Gregory: We need to start the metadata webinar resistance—right NOW!
	11:47am charlie: Del-Bs!
	♥ 11:50am Phillippe Bastille: other folks in meetings talking about metadata? Just got out of one myself
	♥ 11:50am tim from champaign (now washington): Jim Jarmusch's group?
	11:50am Slaboch: @Trouble the Arkestra is still booked by Jack!
	11:51am Emory Buffinstuff: Webinar Resistance?! YOUR CANCELLED! DEPLATFORMED!
	♥ 11:51am Trouble: no way@slaboch: that's great to hear!!he is a doll
	11:51am Henri: Give the drummer channel is not working in the Android app. It streams fine in browser
	♥ 11:52am Trouble: yes@ tim from champaign
	11:53am Slaboch: Yeah he is super sweet. We had the Arkestra on the books for a Storehouse show in 2020 that got postponed. He was so great to work with to make that dream "kinda" come true...
	♥ 11:53am YETI BOB: Robert, and now Kevin. Allright!
	♥ 11:53am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Trouble! Very glad to have been listening. Thanks, Skeleteam. Be well, Troubled Ones.
	♥ 11:53am Trouble: merci@ henri. i passed on that info
	♥ 11:54am LastVisibleDog: Thanks for the show! Time to go teach virtual school.
	♥ 11:54am Listener Gregory: Have to leave early to beat the rush. Thanks for an excellent show, Trouble. And remember, metadata webinar resistance fighters, I am with you! (from a safe distance)
	11:55am morphe': Thanks Trouble and all... !!! Handy.. If you can make 1/2 up the Willyburg one day soon ... I can give you a bottle of that decent red ...
	♥ 11:55am tim from champaign (now washington): Thanks, Trouble!
	♥ 11:55am Trouble: thanks for sitting in this morning! see you next week
	♥ 11:56am Handy Haversack: Thanks, morph! Busy these next days but let me see what's possible.
	♥ 11:56am -Ken: @Henri, you might want to try the WoofMoo app in the Google play store, instead of the official WFMU app in there which is partially broken
	11:56am morphe': Handy - give a shout on the other side...
	11:57am Malcolm: nice show trouble, thanks
	♥ 11:57am John L: Kevin Ayers and Robert Wyatt in the same program. Both pivotal to the change in my teenage musical taste. When I was growing up, on Long Island, I would stay up late listening to the radio. There was a college station, somewhere in CT, that first introduced me to their music and I haven't been the same since. Wish I could remember the name of that station.
	♥ 11:58am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	11:58am Buddha of Suburbia: Bye bye gang! No, Trouble, I'll have to check out those places. I usually frequented the music scene. I'm talking way back. Then lived in NYC for 12 years. Hope they're still around. (ooph). Have a good day everyone! Bye bye Trouble! Bye Trouble Makers! Great show!!
	11:58am Androu B.: @Trouble Thanks for the info on "First Cut" and turning me on to Whosampled. I just might be using that site for future reference. Take care!
	♥ 11:59am Pale Son: Great show, thank you! First time ever I got to listen to the whole thing. Flawless.
	♥ 11:59am Rob W: Beautiful ethereal track to close out with, thanks for a fab show as always Trouble!
	11:59am still b/p: Partially broken temporarily? I noticed last night and today app wouldn't connect.
	♥ 12:00pm Irene Trudel: Beautiful show as always, Trouble!
	♥ 12:01pm Threemoons: Thank you as always
	12:05pm Henri: @-Ken ooooh! Thanks for pointing to woof moo! Seems like a superior app! However, it neither is streaming Give the drummer, but all the other stations play fine. But that's all right, I'm sure it'll get fixed soon enough and I always have web. I only recently discovered WFMU (via Steve Guttenberg youtube video) and am simply in Love! A true music lover's heaven. So inspiring music and always so fresh! Really really helps with keeping mind at ease too, as there's always some new sweet music for brain to decipher
