how's your coffee, Kenny?

Wed. 6/3/09 12:08pm From: Vicki

Us

Wed. 6/3/09 12:08pm From: giraffe-o

So, wait - who are we listening to, now?

Wed. 6/3/09 12:11pm From: Vicki

he's an old cottager

Wed. 6/3/09 12:12pm From: jan

Welcome, Kenny- what a breath of fresh air after the company of the unwashed French.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:12pm From: Cecile

bwah.

Vicki, if you don't mind giving away any trade secrets, what software do you use to make your mixes?

Wed. 6/3/09 12:13pm From: Carmichael

Hi Kenny, what country are you in??

Wed. 6/3/09 12:14pm From: bryan

Please follow this with something by Elmer Fudd.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:14pm From: Webhamster Henry

You should hear Jacques Brel's French version of "Man of La Mancha", Kenny.
Brel was a big fan of it and did the translation and sang the lead.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:16pm From: Vicki

I use PooTools

Wed. 6/3/09 12:16pm From: Cecile

ProTools?

Wed. 6/3/09 12:18pm From: Cecile

ETHEL.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:19pm From: bryan

Or at least tell me you have a Muppet version of this on deck.

I'm totally digging this set. If it could only go on for 3 hours!

Wed. 6/3/09 12:19pm From: Cecile

I remember this song parody from Mad Magazine around the time of Jaws:

To scream the impossible scream
To argh the impossible argh
To wail while a shark drags you under
To know that you're going to ....die!

Wed. 6/3/09 12:20pm From: Doggie

Weird. I thought I was the only one to use PooTools.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:20pm From: dc pat

Audacity is free but not as powerful as some of the non-free stuff..

Wed. 6/3/09 12:20pm From: Jimi Hendrix

Is it 1983?

Wed. 6/3/09 12:20pm From: AnAnonymousParty

It's the Ethel Merman Tabernacle choir.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:20pm From: Cecile

Oh, I think it's cry the impossible cry, and
then
to know that you're going to argh!

correction noted.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:21pm From: dc pat

man, I'm having stream blips--anyone else?

Wed. 6/3/09 12:22pm From: Carmichael

If William Shatner doesn't do a dramatic spoken word version, he should.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:22pm From: Marshall Stacks

DCP, no blips here.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:22pm From: still b/p

Ethel was a wall of sound first...

Wed. 6/3/09 12:22pm From: Carmichael

Comin' in 5 square, DC Pat.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:22pm From: Michael Jeffrey

Hey Jimi, I thought I killed you!

Wed. 6/3/09 12:23pm From: dc pat

ok, maybe just me, on 32k mp3

Wed. 6/3/09 12:29pm From: Cecile

and captain picard created the heavens

Wed. 6/3/09 12:30pm From: Denise in Washington, DC

NNo problems on RealPlayer using 128k version.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:30pm From: Lizardner Dave

This is fucking inspiring in that guy-running-in-the-Grand-Canyon-at-sunset-poster-in-an-office kinda way.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:31pm From: Lizardner Dave

And by that I mean "GO KENNY!!!!!"

Wed. 6/3/09 12:34pm From: Cecile

all this music makes me want to be at a party with Burt Bacharach and Angie Dickinson drinking Martin and Rossi on the rocks.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:36pm From: Adrian in London

Robert Powell, a 'lousy British comedian'?! The man's a fine thespian, he was Jesusfor Christ's sake!

Wed. 6/3/09 12:37pm From: Vicki

Thank you Mr G

Wed. 6/3/09 12:39pm From: Jamesie

Sandra Bernhardt last night sang boring non boring songs in the basement of a church in Leicester Square where I got married 30 years ago. Hasnt changed much. Hello Vicki..

Wed. 6/3/09 12:40pm From: jan

laying down some great tracks, Sir Kenny. How about a reprise of one of your great transcript pieces- The weather report for a year?

Wed. 6/3/09 12:42pm From: Surf Report

This morning's dawn patrol: Glassy, but inconsistent and a bit soft on the shoulders. Still some workable lines to be had with chest high peaks on the bigger ones.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:44pm From: Vicki

Kenny IS doing the Weather Report.

Wed. 6/3/09 12:46pm From: Carmichael

Sounds like some tasty waves, bro.

Wed. 6/3/09 1:00pm From: Cecile

I love Erik Satie

Wed. 6/3/09 1:02pm From: Janet H

I am really enjoying the tunes....very nice!

Wed. 6/3/09 1:06pm From: jan

me too, I am enjoying the show but am waiting for the other shoe to drop

Wed. 6/3/09 1:11pm From: jan

request: Classical gas!

Wed. 6/3/09 1:18pm From: BSI

Shoes don't "drop" in Kenny G's world... they float to the surface like lizard eggs in a pool of diluted mayonnaise. And that is why we love him so.

Wed. 6/3/09 1:19pm From: Carmichael

Kenny: King Kong, I believe?

Wed. 6/3/09 1:25pm From: Jamesie

Flower Pot is always overlooked. So was Derek.

Wed. 6/3/09 1:29pm From: Ike

BSI, you're so disgustingly eloquent! Or maybe that's eloquently disgusting. Or elegantly disgusting. "Lizard eggs in a pool of diluted mayo": ha! I love it.

Wed. 6/3/09 1:31pm From: Carmichael

!Out far really that's

Wed. 6/3/09 1:31pm From: BSI

...or just plain disgusting, I bet!

Wed. 6/3/09 1:32pm From: Marshall Stacks

Great set, Kenny.

Now, if you could mix Blue Swede's "Hooked On a Feeling" this way, you may be able to achieve world dominance.

Wed. 6/3/09 1:42pm From: Hugo

Schwitters sounds interesting ... perhaps I ought to make it up the coast ...

Wed. 6/3/09 1:44pm From: Vicki

number 7 in my top stats searches for peoplelikeus.org are people looking for Kenny G. And it ain't the one singing "Bluebird" at the moment either

Wed. 6/3/09 1:47pm From: ken

what a hip set. the airplane -- too too groovy on this gray afternoon

Wed. 6/3/09 1:49pm From: Vicki

I was just sitting here thinking "Kenny's playing Jefferson Airplane" and the world seemed like a Good Place.

Wed. 6/3/09 1:50pm From: Vicki

I am now in heaven.

Wed. 6/3/09 1:51pm From: Bad Ronald

With my green metal suit I'm preparing to shoot up the city!

DAMN BOUNCED!!!

Wed. 6/3/09 2:02pm From: Laura L

Thanks, Kenny G, for Vicki's Heavenly Set--come back to earth, now, Vicki, we need more PLU! That set was super as the Brits say! Brilliant! Kenny, go for the slope!

Wed. 6/3/09 2:03pm From: ken

soundtrack from monsieur hulot... pour les french peoples

Wed. 6/3/09 2:03pm From: Jamesie

Ca Plein pour moi
Lovely show

Wed. 6/3/09 2:04pm From: jojo

play some paris instead, in honor of ken's night in paris, a cappella of course, he is always listening right?

Wed. 6/3/09 2:05pm From: ken

jonny hallyday (je crois)

Wed. 6/3/09 2:05pm From: Hugo

Nice West Coast touch there for a while. Now, a 35-minute version of Quicksilver Messenger Service doing "Who do you love" wouldn't go amiss (it does exist - right here on this computer)

Kudos for Bailey. Dig out the one called "Fictions" by Company for some extemporisation on improvisation ...

Wed. 6/3/09 2:09pm From: Vicki

Eureka.

Wed. 6/3/09 2:10pm From: ken

vicki, very pretty

Wed. 6/3/09 2:11pm From: Vicki

well, thank you

Wed. 6/3/09 2:11pm From: Hugo

Yeah, the soundtrack for Monsieur Hulot's "Play Time" was kinda groovy. And the musette on "Mon Oncle" was nice, too ...

Wed. 6/3/09 2:11pm From: Carmichael

I have been Motted. Thanks a bunch, Kenny!

Wed. 6/3/09 2:17pm From: ken

gotta run -- but really digging the show and the airplane/paris thing realy worked for me. i think of godard filming the airplane on the roof of a mid-60's midtown -- and how well they work with macca!!! ca marche!

Wed. 6/3/09 2:17pm From: Vicki

bye Ken :)

Wed. 6/3/09 2:19pm From: Dave B

Sorry for the interruption - whos the artist who did the mixed up version of Norwegian Wood that I've heard only here on WFMU? All the sentances are shuffled about, but the melody remains the same.

Thanks

Wed. 6/3/09 2:20pm From: Vicki

Dave B - you're thinking of Mutation. I've played it on DO or DIY

Wed. 6/3/09 2:21pm From: Dave B

That's it! Thanks Vicki!

Wed. 6/3/09 2:21pm From: Vicki

the track is called Norwogian Weed.

Wed. 6/3/09 2:23pm From: vanya

Wed. 6/3/09 2:24pm From: BSI

A dub version of "A Day in the Life"!

Wed. 6/3/09 2:39pm From: crom

dude, you are doing a great job of showcasing one of the best bands of all times, the beetles. i was talking to Yoko the other night, in a dream, when she told me to tune in today at this time! the only issue i have is it seems like some of the songs aren't original versions. next time contact me and i will send you every album so you can choose. also, you should play more stuff from Lenin because he's cooler than McCarthy. you had me crackin up when you were singing along too! i just want you to know because i just tuned in for the first time when i heard your excellent homage!

Wed. 6/3/09 2:41pm From: sasha

did joe bennett stretch that with Ableton Live??

Wed. 6/3/09 2:47pm From: free photo bags

oh kenny g sing us to hypnogogic worlds in which you are also singing but for a slightly longer time

Wed. 6/3/09 2:49pm From: Hugo

"Back in the USSR" was more McCarthy than Lenin, though ...

Wed. 6/3/09 2:58pm From: Richard Kostelanetz

STFU.

Wed. 6/3/09 2:59pm From: cue-monkey

I'm Spartakostelanecus!

Wed. 6/3/09 3:00pm From: Editor B

Hey, that's my baby crying. Sweet!

Wed. 6/3/09 3:01pm From: Todd Rundgren

Will the real Richard Kostelanetz please sit down?
