Fri. 11/21/08 12:12pm From: stingy d

yea i would say thats a fair trade

unlike the move the diane's just made sending my favroite player to the my least favorite coast of america.

Name a wimp a gimp and a blimp.

Yacca!

Fri. 11/21/08 12:19pm From: Doug from DC

I'm reading about the purported dangers of playing the glass harmonica. In the late 18th/early 19th cents., it was believed playing it or listening too much could cause you to go mad, suffer from depression, or become ill.

Fri. 11/21/08 12:20pm From: stingy d

my only diane carson joke is visual

Fri. 11/21/08 12:21pm From: christina

bryce, this henry cowell is quite jaunty

Fri. 11/21/08 12:25pm From: bryce

aye!

Fri. 11/21/08 12:26pm From: bzul

A glass harmonica is less strirring than an accordion and might push you to Bonkertown, but at least it won't pinch you purple.

Fri. 11/21/08 12:26pm From: bryce

the last great glass harmonica maker was an amazing german fellow who made them when he wasn't making precision glass bits for laboratories.

.........he got in his plane at lunch one day and fleeeewwwww awaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy.

It's like six degrees of Wikipediation.

Fri. 11/21/08 12:28pm From: bzul

Wikipediane knows all, tells all.

Fri. 11/21/08 12:29pm From: Doug in DC

Bryce, it must have been the exposure to glass hamonica that drove him over the edge.

Fri. 11/21/08 12:29pm From: Ike

Listening to the glass harmonica could help *cure* depression and illness, not cause it, I would think.

Fri. 11/21/08 12:30pm From: Doug in DC

Maybe is stimulates too much yin.

Fri. 11/21/08 12:31pm From: bzul

I liked Bryan Ferry's version of "I'm Yin with the Yin Crowd".

Fri. 11/21/08 12:32pm From: paulthepostman

salutations bryce and posters, felt a bit queasy during that glass harmonica piece but I'll pull thru.

Fri. 11/21/08 12:48pm From: Cecile

ZOMG - the dueling pianos of Ferrante and Teicher. A formative influence for me.

Hey, got any Lionel Hampton?

Fri. 11/21/08 12:55pm From: dc pat

got any guys saying words with silent letters?

Fri. 11/21/08 12:55pm From: dc pat

Alright, rock!

Fri. 11/21/08 12:58pm From: hjmaiere

Holger Czukay! I'd forgotten about him. Thanks!

Fri. 11/21/08 1:00pm From: christina

I know, it sounds like a european commerical from the 70s for granola or something like that.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:04pm From: Bad Ronald

Taking Tiger Mountain is a superb album!

Fri. 11/21/08 1:04pm From: zoot

Are you familiar with Czukay's "Persian Love" that I think was on WOMAD's Music and Rhythm vinyl?
A quel swell tune.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:05pm From: hjmaiere

I was gonna mention "Persian Love"...

Fri. 11/21/08 1:05pm From: bzul

Must...put...attic...Eno...records..
..on...CD...

Fri. 11/21/08 1:07pm From: stingy d

i didn't fall asleep last night and everything is melting in front of my face all day

Fri. 11/21/08 1:07pm From: dc pat

jeeze, I borrowed a cd burner from a friend so I could burn my LPs....I think I got, oh 2 done. And that was a year ago. It's NEVER going to happen.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:10pm From: paulthepostman

YELLO PLEASE

Fri. 11/21/08 1:13pm From: Emily

Hi, I've never heard that China My China song before but it sounded really familiar - any reason why? Thx.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:14pm From: diane

hey diane, i feel like some modrin mope sampled it. also everyone imitates diane eno.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:16pm From: bzul

My plan is to check the cheap long-hibernating turntable for signs of life, hook it back up to the still-active Pioneer receiver of the same '75 vintage, output to laptop with audio software to create CD tracks. Not too many records, but really, would I get it done even with six months vacation and a gun to my head? I'd get an ark built sooner.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:18pm From: annie

i think we all have some kind of set-up like that, no one will ever get anything burned; it's all a bad dream

Fri. 11/21/08 1:18pm From: hjmaiere

"China My China" might have also been on the album "801 Live" or something like that. A two-second google consultation doesn't confirm it, but a trip to my attic might.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:19pm From: hjmaiere

Nope, no "China My China," just "Baby's on Fire."

Fri. 11/21/08 1:20pm From: Bad Ronald

and "Third Uncle" - which is off TTM...

Fri. 11/21/08 1:21pm From: Bad Ronald

Bauhaus did a nice cover of "Third Uncle".

Fri. 11/21/08 1:21pm From: bzul

Still remember full lyrics to "Fat Lady of Limbourg". Why?

Quack.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:22pm From: Emily

Ha, ok thanks.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:26pm From: Bad Ronald

Because they're fantastic - I often find myself reciting them as well!

I love "furniture to get it right on"

Fri. 11/21/08 1:28pm From: bryce

because you are from the future

Fri. 11/21/08 1:29pm From: annie

must... get... away...from... computer... must get..some ...work...done... arrgghhh my head!!!

diane: what happened to stingy?

Fri. 11/21/08 1:53pm From: Liz OShea

Hi Bryce,

What album is the Yellow Magic Orchestra version of Tighten Up on? I'm a big fan of Tighten Up and I like to collect versions of it. I am listening over the Internet in Ireland. WMFU is now my second-favourite radio station in the world!

Fri. 11/21/08 1:56pm From: diane

listen diane... that guy is outta here... there were three virgins singing "nightmares nightmares nightmares nightmares" for 45 minutes into his ear when he tried to fall asleep, and then the men came through the window and turned into rats and ate his feet. then the whole world died and he tried to speak out loud but he was the only one who could hear himself. He changed his name to uncle lonely.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:56pm From: doug

hey liz. if wfmu is your second fave whats number one?
something local?

Fri. 11/21/08 1:57pm From: Bad Ronald

I think he got an exclusive deal w/RCA after they caught wind of his performance yesterday.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:57pm From: dc pat

Liz, how do you say "sit down and shut up" in Irish? A friend told me once but I don't think I'm remembering it right.

Fri. 11/21/08 1:58pm From: Bad Ronald

Or he tripped out and turned into uncle lonely...

dcp - "have another drink" - just kidding!

Fri. 11/21/08 1:58pm From: diane

no diane he did not receive said recording contract. he lost the ability to fall asleep and has been feelign really bizarre for a logn time at this point.

Fri. 11/21/08 2:04pm From: dc pat

Hooo, watch it Bad Ron, I'm 3/4 Irish. Liz and I will have to beat on you if you keep up w/ the .... wait a minute, need another beer...

diane: go home and go to bed.

Fri. 11/21/08 2:04pm From: bzul

He needs "Discreet Music" at bedtime, and follow the album instructions.

Fri. 11/21/08 2:06pm From: diane

i am going to put the golding institute to good use in short order

Fri. 11/21/08 2:06pm From: LizOShea

Favourite radio: Anocht FM. Sorry, Doug, I've very few words of Irish, and that phrase isn't among them!

Fri. 11/21/08 2:09pm From: Cecile

the....final...relaxation....

I ususually watch 90210 reruns. Those put me right under, even when I'm too tired to sleep.

Fri. 11/21/08 2:10pm From: dc pat

Liz: Uh, dc pat, as in Patrick as in the patron saint of Ireland.

Here's what I have (I commented this yesterday to trip up stingy):

"Na'ah be a kiench, agus sig sheaus"

Fri. 11/21/08 2:15pm From: uncle lonely

Fri. 11/21/08 2:36pm From: Cecile

Fri. 11/21/08 2:38pm From: annie

Fri. 11/21/08 2:41pm From: Bad Ronald

Top hole. Bally Jerry pranged his kite right in the how's your father. Hairy blighter, dicky-birdied, feathered back on his Sammy, took a waspy, flipped over on his Betty Harper's and caught his can in the Bertie.

Fri. 11/21/08 2:42pm From: Cecile

Fri. 11/21/08 2:43pm From: Jack

That track by Home is on Elf: Gulf Bore Waltz, unless it's an alternate version.
