Yey! Bacharach, the master himself!
Actually he even can sing!

Reminds me of poor George Meek ...
have all those collectors labels done him justice by pushing his embarrassing demos to the public?

Same about the 'Cole Porter sings Cole Porter' recordings.

Excellent! Do we know who was speaking about Jazz clubs at the beginning of the track? Thank heaven no one has sampled Phil Schaap in a song....

By the way "Dark Was The Night" by Kronos Quartett was pretty awesome. I admire them anyway, but this is another surprise. Never heard about this 4AD-comp..

Noel Coward singing Noel Coward is another noteworthy example

...freezing rain warning up he-uh in North New England; we must all step carefully, & you know there will be traffic accidents somewhere...highs around 20°F all week...all we have to do is learn to enjoy this & a maximum of 20 min.s of sunlight a day until April, & we'll have this thing down fine...
Avatar 6:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...the words 'Noel Coward' capture my sentiments about the Season exactly - but then he was very witty like that...
Avatar 6:44am fxo:

RevRab: eggs-zactly...
  6:47am P-90:

Greetings, RevRab. Drive w/caution up in Noo Hamsha. Not so bad in NY, just slushy because it isn't quite cold enough for snow to stick. It's been teens and twenties Farenheit in Chicago all last week--that's our weather for the next week. "Noel Coward": should enter the language as a slang term for those sentiments re: the Season.
Avatar 6:50am mauri:

heya. Here in Finland its all snowy. Just did over an hour of snowshoveling pheeuw. Getting down to -20C next night but after that it'll be over 0C ... can't wait to get skiing on lake.

Hi Philo! May I ask where in Midwest?
Avatar 7:03am kat330:

That comment was about "Lose This Skin" if already had ended however you listen. Also heard Matthew Sweet doing a mighty faithful version of Morrissey's song. Seemed just his Sweet voice to same arrangement. Not exactly karaoke, but close enough. Still dug it.

Hi P-90! Southern Indiana, near Louisville Kentucky. Slushy snow, wet and cold and slick... reminded me of my days in Kallio. A few more trees, maybe.

First time tuning in live since...too long! Hello fxo and everyone. Delighted to be here :)
  7:07am P-90:

Now all I can think of is hot chocolate w/Irish Cream....I'm very suggestible where food and beverages are concerned. @Philo: where the heck is Kallio?
Avatar 7:09am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...there is always chocolate & alcohol...hopefully served in the lobby of the Neutral Milk Hotel...
Avatar 7:09am Philo Gristle:

Me too! Oh, thought maybe you were also a Finn -- Kallio is an old borough or section of Helsinki.

Yeah, I was going to say "step right in, left."
Avatar 7:12am Philo Gristle:

@kat That was always one of my fave songs of that Clash album. THough like I just mentioned (off the air) I never even heard of the Aunt Rhody song.
Avatar 7:13am Sem Chumbo:

Hiya, Frank, and good morning all. First real snow of the season starting later, followed by that mess RevRab reports. Sorry to have missed all the early good stuff but Christmas party last night...
Avatar 7:13am kat330:

It was only one tiny recurring theme in that Clash song that sounded like "Go Tell Aunt Rhody."
Avatar 7:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...I ruminate that the Clash were more stoned poets than is most commonly thot...
Avatar 7:14am kat330:

Funny that NMH is one of Philo's all-time faves, and he's lactose intolerant.
Avatar 7:14am Philo Gristle:

@P-90 That's about right. Lots of bars, book and music shops. At least was so in late 90s when I lived there for 5 years or so. Couldn't probably afford to live there these days; used to be cheap.

...well - it's *Neutral* Milk...
Avatar 7:15am Philo Gristle:

@kat I think it's the "neutral" part that helps.
  7:15am P-90:

Actually, I've been to Norway and Sweden, but not Finland. Yet. I'm guessing the ladies in Helsinki are amazing. "Aunt Rhody" is a really old (like Colonial) children's folk song. One probably wouldn't have heard it except in the NorthEast US.

...'go tell Aunt Rhody the old grey goose is dead' ; I'd guess a Folk tune is Southern 9 times out of 10
- but some BritPsych is being referred to ?
Avatar 7:20am kat330:

Actually, I was discussing that point with Philo. I was wondering if South African?
Avatar 7:21am kat330:

And as for me hearing bits of other songs in songs, that's just how my brain is wired. After posting my Rogue World mashup, someone commented "I'd like to inhabit the universe you inhabit." I dunno if I'd wish so much aural vermicelli in another's brain myself.

P-90 you must be steering the collective unconscious this day! :)
Avatar 7:27am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...heard a Nick Lowe tune on 'Prairie Home Companion' yesterday that borrows heavily from 'If I Only Had a Brain' - an interesting example of decisions a songwriter has to make - yerknow - is it a deliberate reference ~ meant as an allusion to intrigue us & is it worth it & such...
  7:27am P-90:

[Our exciting Saturday night life is revealed.]

This Baker St. is so great. But it's one of my fave tunes, IAE.
Avatar 7:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...Nick Lowe was on Michael Shelley - making the rounds for his Xmas album - but I didn't here him here 'cause I work then. His 'Christmas @ the Airport' tune an instant earworm, & I hate Xmas music 'cause I work in a shop...
  7:31am P-90:

@Rev: Isn't that all any artist can do, take bits and pieces of stuff he's heard/seen/read and liked, and put them together his own way? But yeah, the question of when you're INTENDED to detect a "quote" or "influence" is interesting...

This "Baker Street" guitar arrangement is kickass!
Avatar 7:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...I mean here him hear...I mean...
Avatar 7:33am kat330:

@Rev --a shop? Are you one of Santa's elves?
Damn, missed him THIS time on Shelley -- heard him last time -- but I heard him before PHC on Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me. He surely IS making the rounds.
  7:34am P-90:

@Rev: it's worth checking the archive, Shelly did a great job with Lowe, there's a lot of stuff in it you'll like. (Lowe gives a long description of what Yes was like in London clubs back in the day, believe it or not)
Avatar 7:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...& oh - that brings to mind how that's what they did in Bop & whether that was Sampling - & then the whole 'Copyright Criminals' documentary which is really good...I work @ a Thrift Store for Community Services - & *heve* been described as elf-like @ least once in life (if not relating to Xmas specifically) - & Dickensian as well, altho' I was never sure which character *precisely*. The English fiddler who plays @ our local's weekly Irish Trad. sessions & was briefly employed by FairportConvention notes there I'd be my own character...
  7:39am P-90:

He also talks about why Americans have a stronger tradition of Christmas songs than the English do, fascinating observations. And: yeah, "X-mas at the Airport" is a worthy addition to the holiday songbook
Avatar 7:39am kat330:

It's a Rafferty fest!
Avatar 7:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...I got so into 'War on Xmas' tunes (Fear, South Park, Eric Idle) that - well - more or less...Tradition...
Avatar 7:41am duke:

The only Gerry Rafferty tune I ever heard before was Baker Street. That was played to death. This cut is kind of nice.
Avatar 7:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...like when Beatles & Rutles get together & reportedly all sing each others' songs together...
Avatar 7:42am kat330:

@P-90: I'll try to find time for the archive. Lowe's always been special to me. Odd what he said about English vs. American's and Christmas songs. My fave songs (in English) as a kid were always those from the UK. I've never cottoned to the modern U.S. "carol." I do love the Waitresses though. :)
Avatar 7:42am Philo Gristle:

Gotta head out to work; great list and a terrific set of tunes, Frank! Cheerio.
Avatar 7:43am kat330:

Moi, moi, hunaja! (Oh, right, I can kiss you 'bye right here. ;)
  7:44am P-90:

@Rev: Well, you're certainly an "elf-like" presence on these boards, so no surprise. And you have an English fiddler and "weekly Irish trad sessions"? Lucky dog, sounds really cool
Avatar 7:44am fxo:

duke: I used to pump up the volume, in the headphones to hear the Baker guitar lead. Still sends me up...
Avatar 7:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...to survive it all one year - I developed this whole imaginary Alternate Holiday of the Ugly Green Dwarf of MumbledeyPeg...partly based on 'Electric Funeral' by Black Sabbath; a song about how in defiance of Nature, we would burn all the energy & fuel possible in Midwinter until it was one blazing fiery Light like an evil Never-Resting Sauron-like eye in the sky

Two interesting snippets I heard were their version of "O Come Emmanuel" and "Little Drummer Boy," a song I HATE WITH A PASSION, but sounded as though they bang it up pretty good.

Go tell Aunt Rhody was one of the first songs in the book when learning a musical instrument back in the 4th grade.
Avatar 8:06am kat330:

@Rev: You have me on board -- actually more likely I'm the engineer of any anti-consumerism train given my age and how long I've been touting conservation and environmentalism -- with your anti-crass Christmas campaign. But that shouldn't mean turning a deaf ear to great music just because the wankers have co-opted and abused it in the name of the almighty dollar.

Oh, and Hi Frank!
Avatar 8:08am kat330:

@phlodnaR: Yeah, we had to learn a bunch of folk songs in elementary school. I recall learning "Waltzing Matilda," too, so I thought maybe "Rhody" was also one from outside the U.S.

If you want to get a real picture of late Yardbirds I recommend the Pierre Lattès' "Bouton Rouge"-show. It prooves that the group almost sounded like Led Zep at that time.

Check YouTube for it. It's worthwhile.
