A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

From:
annie
this is where the organizer in me would do this to those cumbersome things, trouble: a rod placed on a plywood square, for however high you want the stack to be. i'd organize those puppies alphabetically by artist and separate them with paper spacers to show the beginning and end of each section.. ok, i'm done.. back to breakfast..

pat, i have to joys of the woodstove! i use things like that to start the morning fire... around here they have banned burn barrels, so most people are just announcing that they will continue to use burn barrels or throw stuff in the woodstove.. i'm an advocate of safe incineration over landfills.
Thu. 10/22/09 9:52am

dc pat: I compost brown bags all the time (and newspaper) I find they are a great source of 'dry browns' - especially if you're like me and you don't have a lot of leaves or grass.
Thu. 10/22/09 10:08am
From:
dc pat
krexus: ok, thanks. I haven't read anything about composting in about 15 years so forgot what was acceptable

I am embarrassed to admit that I only just discovered your station a few days ago (the shame of it)!. There was a crazy single called "strokin'" played yesterday which blew my mind.

Thu. 10/22/09 10:48am

HEY, are the bird calls on 45s??
Thu. 10/22/09 10:51am
From:

the bird calls are on a 10" record, the rarest of the odd vinyl family. why won't someone grve them their own week long run?
Thu. 10/22/09 10:51am

Oh, I'd forgotten how good this song is (Colourbox). Paul, shouldn't you be out by a brazier, wearing shorts and a tabard?!

Doron, the WMP stream is still down. Is there an ongoing problem?
Thu. 10/22/09 11:09am
From:
carmichael
It shouldnt be but it looks like it just took a dip. I have it back up. Might need to take it offline for a sec in a few mins to double check something.
Thu. 10/22/09 11:10am
From:
dc pat
yeah 10" week would be impossible and it would suck.
Thu. 10/22/09 11:11am

From:

Did I just call Kate Nash Kate Mosh? I don't know. I mean, I know, but I don't know what's going with synapses misfiring.
Thu. 10/22/09 11:16am
From:
PKNY
I love me some Freda Payne. But everytime I hear the intro to this song, I think it's "Strong Island" by JVC Force.
Thu. 10/22/09 11:19am

Laurie,
So you are saying she is faking it then?
Thu. 10/22/09 11:23am

adrian - unfortunately i will not be replete with fluorescent tabard and placard on picket duty tomorrow because we are big wuss's down here in brighton preferring to console ourselves in beckoning inns of ill repute!

about a year ago i found a secos album that looked fairly recent. it was an updated cover from their first album with everyone's head coming out of the table. however, i don't think the original singer was on this album. did they reform a few years ago and put out something without him?
Thu. 10/22/09 11:26am
From:
Carmichael
PMP, stick it to The Man (or "The Chap", if you will)! I'm sipping away at my Harney's Irish Breakfast tea and urging you on.
You have nothing to lose but your chains.
Thu. 10/22/09 11:26am

This sounds like a French version of Caravan.

Probably BIlly Jam is...

From:

I just have to say, this is one of my favorite songs ever - I actually don't like most of the rest of the album I have which contains this song, but this one is in my top 10 list - however it is "Olhos Coloridos" not Corridos" - which would be "running eyes"
Thu. 10/22/09 11:51am
From:
PMD
Chris in Bristol - yeah, that single blew my mind too. Ken's show in general tends to do that.
Thu. 10/22/09 11:54am
From:

There was a diner under the West Side Highway at 125th Street (West Side Diner, I think) back in the mid-80's that had a jukebox with Clarence Carter singles on it and I fondly remember getting nasty looks from the waitress very late one night / early one monring when I put Strokin' on - gotta love that part about "you sister will"!

carmichael - is this the chap you speak of?
www.thechap.net
adrian - i missed spymonkey but after viewing on utube will def look out for them next time theyre naked in this neck of the woods!

It made me feel slightly violated, but in a good way.
Thu. 10/22/09 11:56am

This Jorge Ben song is great.
I take it this is a big satirical, the way they're singing some of the lines?
Thu. 10/22/09 11:57am
From:

PMD, Chris, wait then, that wasn't an instructional record?
ooops
Thu. 10/22/09 11:57am
From:

Oh my. Hearing that in a diner would REALLY blow my mind.
Thu. 10/22/09 11:57am

PMP, that's too funny! You don't see those fine upstanding gentlemen in the Land of Grey and Pink.
Thu. 10/22/09 11:59am
From:

That soccer song Jorge Ben did was wonderful. I think the English translation was "Goalie Man".

I don't even collect records but I so want to go now that it has been hyped up so much. Wish I lived closer.
Thanks Wolmar for some awesome music choices.
