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.

  Thu. 12/17/09 9:04am Adrian in London:

Silver? It's a rather pathetic whiteout here in South London? A 20-second snowstorm. Hello to all and glad you're back, Trouble.
  Thu. 12/17/09 9:04am texas scott:

great to have you back in the dj chair.

more wood thrush for the gentleman from madison! and yes ask your boss to leave but do it in finnish, it's more polite.
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:01am dc pat:

  Thu. 12/17/09 10:02am dale:

  Thu. 12/17/09 10:03am trouble:

  Thu. 12/17/09 10:31am Cecile:

Trouble, if you have some Marlene Dietrich, that would be great...
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:33am Adrian in London:

Hon, I'm in south London, Hackney Wick might as well be in Middlesbrough for me… I get a headache if I go north of Highbury Corner.

And yes, that Big Blood track was amazing.
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:33am calumny:

a touching cover of "she sells sanctuary", followed by "fairest of the seasons"... plus there was "wax and wane"... are you out to make broad swathes of gen x cry in their cubicles... *sniff*
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:35am zazani:

between that and the hs kids' grandmother.whatever happened to salem 66 is that a possibility?
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:36am Rex:

I was about to open my wrists like Christmas presents, until Nico followed by Delta Blues gave me a reason to live past lunchtime.
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:38am Carmichael:

Mornin' Trouble and fellow Trouble-Seekers. I'm with Cecile; this is the last day before the last day before vacation. Gotta do actual work.
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:38am Kat:

Rex - ME TOO.
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:39am Cecile:

I got that as an early Xmas present for my husband and he loves it. It's great!
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:42am thecleef:

This is my CHOICE Neon Indian song! Good Choice
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:44am Cecile:

I mean the dust to digital christmas collection.
I also got him a John Waters Christmas which is also pretty cool.
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:48am texas scott:

yes,cecile.the john waters christmas IS cool!
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:49am trs:

J'aime ou j'emmerde ?
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:49am Carmichael:

I think Mr. Waters will be in everybody's sock this year.
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:49am Cecile:

the liner notes are almost as good as the music. That guy needs a radio show.
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:52am texas scott:

yes he does.
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:54am Cecile:

he lives in NYC, doesn't he? Just sayin'.
  Thu. 12/17/09 10:58am 55rpm:

  Thu. 12/17/09 11:00am dale:

  Thu. 12/17/09 11:01am Cecile:

I will hear you on NYE, trouble.
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:05am Maria D:

Is the Big Star box set worth the money?
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:06am Cecile:

I love Talladega Nights. And Elf.
And Anchorman.

great stuff. I noes, I'm lowbrow.
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:06am Maria D:

Oh, Trouble just answered my question. Guess I need to splurge.
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:06am Carmichael:

I enjoy all the old claymation Christmas programs, as well as the Dr. Seuss Grinch show, which was on last night.
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:06am DF:

I thought you said you were not doing a "urine" special. I guess that's a Rhode Island accent?
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:07am Chris:

Ephemeral Artery is like the best title ever.
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:08am Elias:

Elf! That movie made me freeze my ass off! They were filming on the Queensboro Bridge (with NO advance warning) and I had to wait on my bicycle in the cold for half an hour! I hate that movie!
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:12am thecleef:

Ephemeral Artery is great, I also like Ephemeral Exhibits by Starkey
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:15am trouble:

RI accent: that sure is a possibility...
is the big star box worth it? YES. but check around the web you can find it for less than the 70 clams...
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:19am dc pat:

hmm, I haven't checked out a new Xmas movie in years. Elf, huh? Anything that pisses Elias off that much must be good...
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:19am Cecile:

ooooh! Do you have the King by Steelye Span? It was a British folk song sung while people walked a dead bird in state from door to door to hasten the coming of spring around Christmas time.
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:20am Carmichael:

Wow, does Shirley Collins ever bring back memories .....
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:20am Cecile:

It's like a Wicker Man Holiday Special...
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:20am dale:

shirley must have really influenced jaqui mcshee of pentangle - so similar!
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:21am Carmichael:

ANY Steeleye Span or Brass Monkey would be great.
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:25am Elias:

In that case I've got a whole list of good stuff!
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:33am annie:

steeleye span's "gaudete"!!
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:39am north guinea hills:

wasn't davey graham on that shirley collin's track (or at least the rest of the album)?
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:40am Cecile:

Yes, ngh. He was on the whole record
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:41am Cecile:

I think.
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:45am trouble:

you are right cecile. It was a legendary collaboration of the two varied & great artists
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:45am north guinea hills:

jozef van wissem, always a joy live!
  Thu. 12/17/09 11:59am Adrian in London:

Such a great show today, and a lovely way of ending it.
  Fri. 12/18/09 9:26pm Aja West:

Thanks so much for rocking "Vicoden Reality" by The Mackrosoft (Waxpoetics 7). If you like this funky jazz stuff I can send you some CD's or LP's if you'd be interested in playing them or checking them out? Thanks again. Aja West.
