Good afternoon, everyone. This Syd Dale is like a sonic balm for frayed nerves. Now I just need to go find a palm tree or two and a hammock.

Just heating the espresso machine on another cold morning here. So sticking with coffee, for now.🍵😎🐾

Seems a wise choice, Scott. What is the morning fav for Gus?

Poor Koalas get it tough even without the fires. Developers & Farmers want their habitat for profits.✌🐨

Just learned, as perusing recipes for crêpes, that a pony is an ounce.

Curling up on his shed bed in the sun, then breakfast of some really healthy locally produced tucker. He just trotted up there as I write, the rising sun just hit his bed. One of several choices strategically placed to catch the moving sun.✌😎🐾🌞

shangri-lounge:

Ha Haaa...Gus has got it good - I hope I can meet him someday! Not sure what the visa restrictions are like - but maybe I will come to him! He seems used to being adored.

He is indeed Shangri-la! 🐾

Perhaps you should consider posing Gus on a tiger skin rug. When he is feeling in the mood.

I'm not sure the Tiger would like it, he's still using his skin.

Ha haaa - Gus has not yet made friends with the local tiger community? Just a matter of time, right?

This show eases the tiki-sized hole in my heart since Aloha Friday ended.

That makes me so happy, Fab! I was just thinking I'm looking to re-find my place. Suddenly, it's daylight here during 6-8pm ET!

We may have to import a few first. The Tasmanian Tiger is extinct.

Mod Mokka Matti:

OH YAY, Françoise!! <3 I can still remember hearing this or the instrumental version for the first time on the Nutone Intercom system we always had on in my parents' house when I was still a very young boy in the '70s. It latently began my long-time infatuation with her that has only deepened as I've gotten older.

I was so pleased to come across a couple of her LP's in Paris - her legacy never ends!

There you go Shangri-la, no Tigers were annoyed in the making of this image. Gus reclining on his shed bed in the morning sun.🐾🌞

Scott, I'll have to google the Tasmanian Tiger - I am constantly impressed by how many animal species/sub-genres (?!?!), I do not know about!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:52pm
Scott67:

So many we have caused to become extinct too.
Avatar 7:00pm

If only we could create a Jayne Mansfield-type calendar with each and every one of them!

They would no longer be extinct.

Don Ralke did the orchestration of that very weird Johnny Gunn, Introspection VI LP.

This is a distinctly Roadrunner sounding Vibraphone

Rich in Washington:

Is that Gus, Scott67? That looks like a fine four legged friend!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:05pm
Scott67:

Not to my knowledge, he's a Jack Russell cross, so anything could've stuck in I guess. But I think it is some Kelpie character he has.

Feldpausch, I have been working on a J Richman playlist that I am too shy to unveil!!

Pretty soon - I think. The people need it!!!

Mod Mokka Matti:

I wasn't aware that Mr. Hazlewood kept a pack of musical rodents. He was a rather busy man.
Avatar 7:07pm
shangri-lounge:

He was so busy! It's unclear where those surf instrumentals were meant to ultimately go, Mod Mokka Matti!
Avatar 7:08pm
shangri-lounge:

Light in the Attic compiled them all tho, and it's a great LP!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:08pm
Scott67:

Gus himself Rich! He is my brother from another mother indeed. Scroll through my Fakebook page one day when you're bored. There's some of our adventure pics there.👍😎🐾

Aw! Scott, I'll need to add you on FB. Gus is our unofficial swag for life member, I think!

Pity FMU don't do tte annual Mascot anymore. He's no Chinchilla, but a sure contender.

Mr Fab:

"Love is Strange " such a great, and historic record:
-inspired the New York Dolls "Trash"
-Sylvia went on to co-found Sugar Hill Records, thus giving birth to hip-hop
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:32pm
WR:

I'm blanking, but didn't some WFMU DJs do Love is Strange for the end of marathon party, it might have been from a prior year that they showed a clip of....
Avatar 7:32pm
Mod Mokka Matti:

@shangri-lounge: I have to say that I have no idea who Richard Adam is/was - Just did a search on Discogs, and the first hit was of a Czech singer, who seems to have performed in Czech and a lot of German in the 50s through the 80s, and passed in 2017. If it was a different guy, and was/is French, his name is a lot like Ronnie Bird's - deceptive. Do you have any info on him?
Avatar 7:35pm
shangri-lounge:

That's so cool, Fab! I actually had no idea, but it makes so much sense!!

Martinibomb:

hey Shangri la! Just got back home from getting my 2nd shot yay! fully vaccinated
Avatar 7:36pm
shangri-lounge:

hell yeah, MB! But, definitely try to take it easy.
Avatar 7:37pm
shangri-lounge:

Matti, I don't have further info on Richard - just sorta assumed he was a one and done!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:38pm
Scott67:

Yay!! MB👍😎🍸💣
Avatar 7:40pm
shangri-lounge:

I did not feel well for a couple days post-vaccine - but I don't say that to discourage others from taking it. Just be sure to take it easy! I am very pro-vaxxx!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:41pm
WR:

Yay MB, but still a few weeks before you have maximum resilience and then we all have to plan on getting the vacx at least yearly for the foreseeable future. Ever looking on the bright side I am.
Avatar 7:42pm
shangri-lounge:

Ha! WR, you are correct though.
Avatar 7:42pm
shangri-lounge:

Perhaps our new normal.

Only time will tell.

Mod Mokka Matti:

Okay, now that you cued up Serge, all you need is some Jacques Dutronc or Johnny Hallyday to round things out :-)
Avatar 7:45pm
Mod Mokka Matti:

But I'll gladly accept Gillian.
Avatar 7:46pm
shangri-lounge:

Ugh I am so not a Jonny Hallyday fan - I feel like I am missing something!!!
Avatar 7:46pm
shangri-lounge:

But I do love Jacques!!
Avatar 7:47pm
shangri-lounge:

Which Johnny song do you like best, Matti?
Avatar 7:48pm
shangri-lounge:

I am ready to re-evaluate, but I think I need to be guided in the right direction.
Avatar 7:50pm
Mr Fab:

Most Johnny Hallyday is pretty crappy. Maybe some of his early stuff is ok.
Avatar 7:51pm
shangri-lounge:

LOL Fab, give it to us straight.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:53pm
Scott67:

Not a Hallyday fan either! The French are mad for him, but I didn't catch the bug when I was there.
Avatar 7:53pm
Mr Fab:

Well, hey, supposedly Pat Boone was the second-biggest selling "rock" artist after Elvis! So we Americans cant' get too snooty.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:54pm
Scott67:

Nor we Aussies, we have our own crimes of taste too.
Avatar 7:56pm
Mod Mokka Matti:

Oh, you've got me there. I'm not really up on Johnny's catalogue, other than seeing occasional stuff come up when I was looking for Sylvie's tracks, though I do like a lot of Jacque's output.

@Scott - Wasn't Hallyday billed as "The French Elvis" or something like that, because he introduced them to American style R&R?

Thanks Shangri-la! Lovely interlude as usual, but oh too brief.🐾😎🤙🌺🌴
