WFMU: Strength Through Failure with Fabio: Playlist from January 12, 2017

Listener comments!
	3:05pm Ted: The greatest worst bass line ever recorded.
	3:05pm Cliff in Prague: I'm imagining a bunch of hula dancers in the studio
	3:05pm V Priceless: Hey Fabio! Nice Roxy kick-off! Woo!
	3:05pm Michael 98145: indeed
	3:08pm Mike: Hi from snowy Portland
	👻 3:10pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ...and summery DC.
	3:11pm Henry: a bit of tiny tim
	3:11pm Chris from DC: Being stuck inside today is just cruel.
	3:11pm Cecile: I love it when you play Roxy Music.
	3:13pm Michael 98145: .. even better
	3:13pm Anonymous Coward: Nice follow... Roxy & Eno. Let's take that tiger Mountain...
	3:13pm V Priceless: One can only dream of the sonics that would have blessed our ear holes if Ferry had passed that Crimson audition. I'd say it worked out well on both fronts, regardless. Ohhh..TTMBS! Yay!
	3:14pm Mike: Bryan does the warbler thing
	👻 3:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid: What th'Toad said. Waiting for ages in a slow queue at the food-truck-of-choice was rather nice, for once..
	3:15pm Dean: Ferry auditioned to front KC? And didn't get the gig. More evidence that vocals are Fripp's weak area.
	3:15pm Anonymous Coward: "We climbed and we climbed, oh how we climbed..."
	3:16pm Polyus: I cannot picture that, especially crooning Peter Sinfield lyrics.
	👻 3:17pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Always thought Ferry & Robert Calvert shared a common .. something .. in vocal technique. BF was the stronger of the two, but there are moments when they could be "almost" interchangeable.
	3:18pm Chris from DC: It's time to get the Led out.
	3:18pm V Priceless: I'd pay in gold to hear Ferry sing "The Great Deceiver", that's for sure..if I had gold.
	3:20pm Dean: Seems to me Daryl Hall would have made a better vocalist for KC than Wetton or Belew. Could be wrong. Oh, yeah, @VP. For sure. That and "Night Watch."
	3:22pm the Master: You musical instinct is uncanny
	3:23pm V Priceless: abowie! Sweet set, Mr. F!
	3:23pm Michael 98145: what they said
	👻 3:23pm Ken From Hyde Park: Seems "Mr. Giant Man" is up to 77 clicky stars. Just 23 more and it gets up to Elite Level.
	3:24pm Cliff in Prague: 78 - it doesn't count your own.
	👻 3:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: Even better...22 to go!
	👻 3:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: I believe it was the first tune I ever clicked when the stars first appeared here.
	👻 3:26pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ...but of course.
	3:26pm MacGuffin: Sorry, but it is this the most dreary Bowie track ever?
	3:26pm βrian: Like Generalissimo Francisco Franco, but somehow different.
	3:30pm Michael 98145: yoda say * you have not to find out the reality, you are the reality *
	3:31pm V Priceless: heroes
	3:31pm Dean: HEROES
	3:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wind wigkey : en.wikipedia.org...
	3:31pm MacGuffin: Heroes!
	3:31pm Lulu: Fabio, et al - do you think the passing of so many bigger than life people last year was like in any way this cosmic exit so they wouldnt have to be here for what lies ahead?
	3:31pm Michael 98145: ( typo "stattion" )
	3:31pm donnie: Heroes
	3:31pm Chris from DC: If you read Bowie in Berlin, Station to Station definitely laid some of the groundwork for the trilogy.
	3:32pm MacGuffin: What lies ahead. Lulu?
	3:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Lulu: When Cohen died the day before the USA?
	3:32pm Ike: @Lulu, sure, celebrities are going to magically stop dying now that it's 2017. ;)
	3:33pm MacGuffin: I just thank God that Betty White survived.
	3:33pm dale: square room! love it!
	3:34pm alex: Low/Heros/Lodger!!! I could you forget!!!
	3:34pm Cliff in Prague: Even Abe Vigoda didn't make it.
	3:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Year of Fire Monkey will become Fire Rooster. Less confusing & tricksy maybe - but likely even more arrogant.
	3:35pm listener Rey: The Idiot has a place in that Berlin grouping tho not a Bowie record per se
	3:35pm Michael 98145: Them lies ahead
	3:36pm Lulu: @macguffin idk something dark it seems
	3:36pm Ike: On another note, Pidge will be trying out for the morning slot on Mon. & Tue. I must be nice! I must repress the urge to comment things like "REO Speedwagon?!?! BAD PIGEON! YOU'RE WORSE THAN HITLER" or "Bleh! Bread is such a moldy band!"
	3:36pm Lulu: @ike well thats some good news at least!
	3:37pm dale: thank god van morrison didn't stick around to sing this.
	3:38pm coelacanth∅: hello Fabio and army of Failures ...this is the best them song i've ever heard.
	3:38pm MacGuffin: @Lulu: Oh, things will be fine.
	3:40pm dale: bread got stale. by the end they were toast
	3:40pm Michael 98145: ( so very 1967 )
	3:41pm coelacanth∅: MacGuffin - in other words, "lay back and enjoy it"?
	3:42pm MacGuffin: @coelacanth: No, just stop overreacting. It's unseemly. And it plays into his (small) hands.
	3:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Good point - but I think Drumpf'll have to be actively opposed. ...Influence maybe of hanging w/ another band w/ a Morrison in L.A. (which they did a bit) - tho' interestingly no keyboard...
	3:45pm Ike: Or "G'morning CP! Ah, Chicago is a nice band... for my cat to poop on!"
	3:46pm Chris from DC: Ooh, Davis Redford.
	3:46pm coelacanth∅: overreacting is not pragmatic, but "unseemly"?! what an asinine thing to say. ...and it's not acknowledging the problems that have brought this country and this planet to a point of irreversible shit storm for the majority of people.
	3:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...seamless segue...
	3:47pm dale: fabio - follow this up with the poppy family's 'free from the city' - plenty-o-sitar in that one.
	3:47pm MacGuffin: One must retain one's dignity.
	3:51pm TDK60: Wow Fab, rockin' in the "free" world. Got any Floyd?
	3:55pm Lulu: what is dignity?
	3:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Interesting to consider. Sometimes I think Obama was too much about 'dignity'. Too much of that & it's passive Normalization & Stockholm Syndrome. Too much passivity & presumption has got us here generally, I think. & by here I mean - colossal wealth inequality, irreversible climate change, environmental mass extinctions, class war leading to global embrace of Fascism, failing justice systems, utterly degraded infrastructure, economic & societal collapse, & other trivia...
	4:02pm MacGuffin: Dignity is not getting hysterical just because your side has had a setback. The Trump years will be ridiculous but this too shall pass.
	4:03pm Splits: Fabs!
	4:05pm Polyus: The only couple of Clark Hutchinson tracks I have heard were quite different from each other. I wish someone would reissue their stuff again, would like to hear more.
	4:06pm Chris from DC: This album is the place to go.
	4:07pm Wilson K: Well, this rules.
	4:08pm Brendan: Im there man. Dig.
	4:09pm Brendan: Love how this morphed from a native american thing into a boleroesque groove
	4:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah - I don't think it's all one or the other - but what reason to not expect the worst administration in history (@ least our own)? There's already damage to civil society - & his cabinet is full of Oligarchs & people determined to destroy the very departments they're supposed to run. He's surrounding himself w/ Generals & dispensing w/ Diplomacy...Were that it was only 'ridiculous'. The country & the world are @ critical junctures - & the reins are being handed to a hate-filled racist nationalist business fraud, bankruptcy pest, & game show host famous for terminating people. But - this is not Unreality TV - this is the real stage...
	4:11pm coelacanth∅: okay, MacGuffin -good points; but it's not about one's "side" having a setback. that shit's for the republicans and, to a smaller degree, the democrats. it's about the world having setbacks. (see RR @3:56) -people who are passionately upset are so because they are concerned - or scared- for all the people of this planet. ...but yes, at least this era shall be entertaining.
	4:11pm TDK60: Dig that psych-raga-rock, Fabio.
	4:12pm Dean: OED, first entry on "dignity": "The quality of being worthy or honourable; worthiness, worth, nobleness, excellence." Best quotation that supports RRN63's remark, justifying scare quotes around "dignity": 1836 H. Taylor Statesman xv. 107 It is of the essence of real dignity to be self-sustained, and no man's dignity can be asserted without being impaired.
	4:12pm Dean: More like AY-vi-guh, isn't it?
	4:15pm Brendan: No way!
	4:15pm TDK60: I can't believe Norway (supposedly liberal?) has ended radio! Why? For High Definition Radio? Maybe it will inspire some pirates there?
	4:16pm Brendan: We dropped the r for radio
	4:16pm Lulu: Norway ended radio as a symbolic gesture to the end of times
	4:17pm Cliff in Prague: Actually they're trying to force people to switch over to digital radio
	4:17pm TDK60: Cliff: And digital radio costs $?
	4:18pm Ike: That move by Norway is too wacky. I bet no big countries will dick around w/a screwy move like that. Small countries are more likely to pull these weird experimental moves. Consumers don't want to all have to buy new digital radios. Too extreme.
	4:18pm Bronwyn Bishop: Hey Fabio and everyone!
	4:19pm Polyus: Theater in my town is showing a 35 mm print of the original THX-1138 this weekend (not the jazzed-up later cut). Hoping I can make it, but lots going on.
	4:19pm TDK60: That's a damn shame there, Oslo! Bergen! Trondheim! Tromso! "No static at all".
	4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I dunno. It happened to TV & we survived. Will there be airwave broadcast of digital radio?
	4:20pm dale: norway is ending national fm broadcasts - i can't find any mention of private broadcasters. howsabout shortwave and the broadcast band?
	4:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...presumably heading to general broadcast of wifi signal - internet - anyhow.
	4:21pm Cliff in Prague: Yes, they're switching to DAB, you can still receive stations for free, it's just that it's digitally encoded instead of analog. Kind of like HDTV vs. NTSC/PAL.
	4:22pm dale: instead of just 5 stations they will get 22 so it isn't a bad thing.
	4:23pm Brendan: You have to get a digital radio or get a conversion kit. A pain for car radios.
	4:23pm TDK60: Oh...is there an article on this (Norway) online?
	4:24pm Cliff in Prague: Digital encoding = no interference or static, however a weak station will just drop out instead of fading out. TDK60 - www.engadget.com...
	4:24pm coelacanth∅: digital radio is shit, relatively speaking. that's sad. ...although it can't sound any worse than sirius. - but it's all about greed in any case.
	4:25pm Ike: @RRN63, yeah but most 40+ folks have far more radios than TVs. Cars have radios built in, but not TVs built in. I have something like 5 or 6 radios without even trying. They're just lying around. Also upgrading to HDTV was a clear huge improvement in pic quality but digital radio will NOT be any better-sounding, I'm sure. Already-existing "HD radio" is useless garbage and doesn't sound any better than analog.
	👻 4:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: In mountainous Norway, it's difficult to get line-of-sight to transmitters.
	4:25pm βrian: "No, I don't want those tickets. But thanks, anyway." How's that?
	4:25pm Whooda: 2-0-0-9-0-8-6-0-0-0....Oh I hope I win! Answer, answer, answer DJ Strength Through Failure Fabio.
	4:26pm melinda: Howdy everyone
	4:27pm TDK60: Thanks Cliff.
	4:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: A digital radio in a fossil fuel car: representing a technological span of three centuries. Good points Ike. I never listen to airwave radio, if I can help it - streams @ home & podcasts outside it...oh - my alarm clock radio... @KenFHP: The same for analog or digital signals; NorthNewEngland here has the same problem w/ hills...
	4:28pm geezerette: Hey melinda, and dudes. :)
	4:29pm Brendan: Those Norwegian weather broadcasts weren't that important anyway
	4:30pm βrian: "That parrot is just pining for FM radio, that's all."
	4:31pm geezerette: Stately Anne Gillis.
	4:32pm Cecile: Did you ever think that Obama had to keep an aura of dignity because he was our first black President? You see it on Fox News and the idio-right sites. He chastises someone gently, it's lashing out. He's doing normal lame-duck pardons and other business he knows he can get through, Fox News calls it "a year-long temper tantrum". And don't even get me started on how Hillary was treated. Yes, she was an Establishment candidate, but I heard from the left and right that her only qualifications were that she was a woman
	4:32pm Cliff in Prague: Digital helps a lot with shortwave.....but who listens to THAT anymore?! No real improvement in audio quality for FM as far as I can tell. Hey melinda & geezerette!
	4:33pm Cecile: "you girls and your girl candidate have your fun."
	4:36pm geezerette: Hi Cliff!
	4:37pm TDK60: Shortwave had interesting propaganda/news from governments. And human interest type stories one might hear on "public" radio. It was exciting and nerdy at the same time to be DXer.
	4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @C'ec: Oh absolutely true - true. Obama could not be 'the angry black man' - & wasn't. I think Democrats went NeoLiberal as a response to the NeoConservatives - that is, dragged the DemParty to the Right/'Center' - & found there was no Left anymore - & no 'Center' to stand on. (Oops Hillary.) Maybe now in present straits we can actually start to address all this together - but the DNC has to get there too...
	4:38pm Linda Lee: loving the sounds. fantastic. yes, i want 2 tickets! thank you! unfortunately i can't use them.
	4:39pm TDK60: RRN: Please, The Demz never were and never will be "left"!
	4:39pm Linda Lee: the job of the DNC has been to neutralize & absorb the Left for decades now. they're not making a Left turn any time soon. forget it.
	4:39pm geezerette: Cecile,couldn't believe the reflexive misogyny myself! I was dumb enough to think we were over that.
	4:39pm melinda: Yo Cliff!
	4:41pm melinda: @cecile: yeah, Obama really had to walk a fine line.
	4:41pm TDK60: Gotta go y'all. Fabio, maybe Floyd next time?
	4:42pm geezerette: Howdy Linda Lee!
	4:42pm Cliff in Prague: TDK60 - One of these days I'm going to rig up a good enough antenna to pull in Radio Pyongyang. Them and Radio Havana Cuba are the last Commie stations on the air!
	4:42pm Linda Lee: hello geezerette!!
	4:42pm Cecile: I hope Keith Ellison gets the chairmanship. he is a great rep. I'm in his district and got the best email back to my demand that he not confirm Seth Mnuchin or any of those other scoundrels. I call myself a Liberaltarian. I like small government. But it has to the a small government that keeps the safety net taut, and the roads fixed.
	4:43pm Linda Lee: has anyone heard the otters on organ today? good stuff! :-)
	4:44pm melinda: I'm hoping Ellison gets the DNC chair, too.
	4:45pm Cliff in Prague: And then there's Radio Martí broadcast from Miami, and routinely jammed by the Cuban government: en.wikipedia.org...
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yeah yeah - I know. Bernie for example is both an Independent & a Senator: trying his best from Inside a System a true Left would say should not exist. But he decided not to run Independent & divide the vote. This election result is a symptom of Default System Failure - & the radical Left says even the end-stage disintegration of it...Unfortunately, Libertarianism, got highjacked into the Tea Party & getting even more radical Republicans in the back door under the guise of 'Deregulation' & 'personal freedumbs' & being 'pro-business'...so I'm feeling excessively Socialist these days...
	4:45pm Linda Lee: at this point 'small government' is polspeak for pillaging the public trough. functional safety net, infrastructure isn't relevant.
	4:45pm Chris from DC: Cecile I like that Liberaltarian thing. That would resonate.
	4:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh - Libera - L - tarian - I see...
	4:46pm Linda Lee: don't believe we're actually getting anywhere until we realize we don't have a functional government, per se. Trump et al will make that completely clear. what we have is full scale opportunism.
	4:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Deregulate - privatize - let it fail - sell it to the 1%.
	4:47pm Linda Lee: when half the nation's people are officially poor, you don't have functional government.
	4:48pm Linda Lee: failure accomplished!
	4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Isn't it really that simple? & perpetual warfare is foreign policy failure.
	4:50pm Brendan: On the other hand tomorrow's Friday
	4:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (Deregulate & Defund.)
	4:50pm Bronwyn Bishop: Agreed Linda
	4:50pm Linda Lee: actually, perpetual warfare is foreign policy success, if the main point is profiteering. & considering the general upshot of our massive engagements, there can be no other point! because all that improves is industry profit.
	4:51pm Lulu: i dont follow :(
	4:51pm Linda Lee: look up the definition of 'failed state'. we're right on schedule. we are not exceptional. not at all. we can easily fit the profile.
	4:51pm Cecile: yeah, I know, Linda Lee. I remember voting for a mayoral candidate, even though he was personally conservative, because he said that his agenda would be to get the roads fixed, snow plowed in the winter, better police protection in the inner city neighborhoods,spruce up the community gardens and give more money to the schools. He didn't get out of the primaries, but the candidate who won, borrowed heavily from his platform.
	👻 4:52pm Rev. Turnip Druid: what th'Toad said. about what Cecile said.
	4:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If there wasn't Oil there - the perpetual warfare wouldn't be happening there.
	4:52pm Linda Lee: so ~ is it being handled Cecile?
	4:53pm Cecile: And then he sold a block of downtown Minneapolis to Target Corp, displacing 30 thriving businesses.
	4:53pm Linda Lee: yes. ok. anything for the fcking vote. then fck all.
	4:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - because - he's Pro-Business...Free Market - & Thank You...
	4:54pm Cecile: Our stuff is hanging in there, but we have a good tax base and unusually involved citizenry. It's fragile. And the police protection is not anything to write home about.
	4:54pm Linda Lee: look up your man's name at opensecrets.org some time. see where Target sits on the list of political contributions.
	4:55pm Cecile: yeah, I know.
	4:55pm Linda Lee: seems like you're riding on what's already been done, but the future is unclear. .. guy sounds like a dildo so far.
	4:57pm Linda Lee: Rev ~ re fossil fuels. of course. part of late stage extraction. everyone knows it's too finite a resource! so the scramble is on.
	4:57pm Linda Lee: it's all too transparent. ...
	4:58pm Cecile: he's out of office. People used to call him "the music man". He often talked a big game. He wasn't a terrible mayor. Just more into being liked than effective. During the bus strike of '04, he was one of the last major officials in the area who wasn't a wingnut to throw his support to us strikers. US reps, the mayor of St. Paul, every other official made a statement of support. He squeaked his displeasure in around Week 4 of a 6 week strike.
	4:59pm Linda Lee: sorry got confused about the start of the term! as if the new guy was in already. i need food. :-D
	5:01pm Cliff in Prague: I have a neurologist appointment on Inauguration Day, hahah
	5:02pm Cecile: oh, that's fine. I sometimes think he's still my mayor, too.
	👻 5:03pm Rev. Turnip Druid: I work about 2 blocks from the White House. Definitely going in that day. Will take long lunchbreak with camera. The street-photo opportunities will be HIGH-LARIOUS.
	5:09pm Michael 98145: I expect CSPAN will cover the event ...
	5:10pm Linda Lee: i plan on spending inauguration day doing what i normally do. living my life as best i can. working to survive the winter without heating oil & iffy power. no one involved in that inauguration gives a damn about this. i'll bet on that.
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @LL: Thx for tip on OpenSecrets (fb: www.facebook.com...). Fabio - apologies for much Politrix chatter: no disrespect to the Music - on the contrary you always deliver, & create a Zone where we relate...FullMoon madness & such...
	5:11pm Linda Lee: you're welcome Rev! :-) Fabio doesn't care about the board, does he?
	5:11pm melinda: @RevTurnip: that will be interesting! I was disappointed to hear that there will be no WFMU correspondent at the inauguration, but I guess the timing was bad for Jim the P
	5:12pm Linda Lee: Rev, on their website you can type in a pol's name & get the skinny.
	5:13pm Michael 98145: Wolf Moon tonight : www.sfgate.com...
	5:13pm Linda Lee: many confounding mysteries solved there.
	5:13pm Chris from DC: Not familiar with this Art Fleury, but clicky.
	5:16pm Linda Lee: personally have a soft spot for any artist/band with the name Art or including those letters. Art Bears, Arto Lindsay, Art Farmer, Arte Johnson ...
	👻 5:18pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @melinda: I'm guessing it would be impossible to send someone at this point. DC is a small town; doesn't take much to shut everything down. The pope visit last year was amusing, to say the least...
	5:19pm Chris from DC: The national xmas tree lighting created gridlock.
	👻 5:21pm Rev. Turnip Druid: BUT: I've been told the tour-bus parking permit requests on inauguration day is at about 200, but requests for the Women's March is more like 1200 busses. Tee-hee!
	👻 5:21pm Rev. Turnip Druid: the surge is working!
	5:22pm Chris from DC: Awesome.
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...WolfMoon~WoofMoo...
	5:28pm Billy Jam: Strength Thru Fabio's Show - Wot up RevRabit, Rev Turnip, Cecile, Ken from Hyde Park and all else tuned into W F M U
	5:30pm Mr. Pumpy: Lovin' this gutteral hyena pop.
	5:32pm Mr. Pumpy: *guttural
	👻 5:32pm Rev. Turnip Druid: BEEJAM!
	5:33pm Linda Lee: actually think you were right the first time Mr. P! hola Billy Jam!!
	5:34pm melinda: Love the deep droney chorus.
	5:34pm common: hello fabio and you good people
	5:36pm dale: that igor piece was great.
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah.
	5:38pm geezerette: This seems like appropriate music for the season.
	5:38pm TehBadDr: Really liking the dark droney soundz Fabio!
	👻 5:38pm Rev. Turnip Druid: PREACH IT, Fabio.
	5:39pm Dean: Release Music Orchestra were nicely jazzy Krautrock. Secret Oyster, except for the fact that they weren't German, are good, too.
	5:39pm common: good to hear you clay
	5:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...@ worst, 'Fusion' was the worst of both worlds - diluting both Rawk's drive & Jazz's intricacy. Too easy to forget that stuff - because we are selective about it now!...Otherwise, it's just what Word you call it...
	5:41pm Michael 98145: La Morte Al Lavoro - Death at work
	👻 5:42pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Thought for a minute you were talking about KHAN, the Steve Hillage/Dave Stewart vehicle...
	5:42pm melinda: The drug references are cracking me up
	5:45pm V Priceless: great show, Fabio! Much thanks!
	5:46pm melinda: I like the Khon (?)
	5:46pm Linda Lee: i like the Kohn too.
	5:47pm Cecile: hey, billy!
	5:51pm Carmichael: Suitably spacey music for my afternoon.
	5:51pm Linda Lee: yes. Terry Riley.
	5:51pm dale: ...and robert reed.
	5:52pm Cecile: Baba O' Riley was a tribute to Meher Baba and Terry Riley.
	5:52pm steve: isnt the OReilley in Baba OReilley actually a reference to Terry?
	5:52pm geezerette: Thanks Fabio. Collective consciousness well caught.
	5:53pm Carmichael: Correct a mundo, Cecile. Not many people realize that!
	5:53pm melinda: @Cecile: I remember reading that somewhere but didn't know anything about Terry Riley at the time, now it makes sense.
	5:53pm Dean: Terry Cohen?
	5:53pm common: hee hee
	5:54pm dale: those are solo cups.
	5:54pm Cecile: Carm, I only heard about it recently, and quite like Pete for doing that.
	5:54pm Fredericks: Citizen Kohn.
	5:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Townshend: ' I meant to portray guru Meher Baba in music - including astrological information & everything converted to sound - & it turned out sounding like Terry Riley '...
	5:56pm Fredericks: I always forget it's Fabio's show when Clayton arrives.
	5:56pm geezerette: RevRab, that's a great quote!
	5:57pm Dean: Jacques Louis-David, Death of Marat: http://www.bc.edu/bc_org/avp/cas/his/CoreArt/art/resourcesb/dav_marat.jpg
	5:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I always thot of 'Who's Next' as 1972 or even 3 - but it's still 1971. Quite a band.
	5:58pm Dean: Er, J-L David. Misplaced hyphen, a blow against the Revolution.
	5:58pm Dean: Same here, @RRN63, until I bought the CD a month or so ago and, for the first time in my life, actually listened to the album from beginning to end.
	5:59pm Michael 98145: ( that sounded like a Thai khaen )
	5:59pm Fredericks: Fast Eddie!
	10:01am raga: Man, that second set was fucking awesome. Thanks!

Listener comments!
	3:05pm Ted: The greatest worst bass line ever recorded.
	3:05pm Cliff in Prague: I'm imagining a bunch of hula dancers in the studio
	3:05pm V Priceless: Hey Fabio! Nice Roxy kick-off! Woo!
	3:05pm Michael 98145: indeed
	3:08pm Mike: Hi from snowy Portland
	👻 3:10pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ...and summery DC.
	3:11pm Henry: a bit of tiny tim
	3:11pm Chris from DC: Being stuck inside today is just cruel.
	3:11pm Cecile: I love it when you play Roxy Music.
	3:13pm Michael 98145: .. even better
	3:13pm Anonymous Coward: Nice follow... Roxy & Eno. Let's take that tiger Mountain...
	3:13pm V Priceless: One can only dream of the sonics that would have blessed our ear holes if Ferry had passed that Crimson audition. I'd say it worked out well on both fronts, regardless. Ohhh..TTMBS! Yay!
	3:14pm Mike: Bryan does the warbler thing
	👻 3:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid: What th'Toad said. Waiting for ages in a slow queue at the food-truck-of-choice was rather nice, for once..
	3:15pm Dean: Ferry auditioned to front KC? And didn't get the gig. More evidence that vocals are Fripp's weak area.
	3:15pm Anonymous Coward: "We climbed and we climbed, oh how we climbed..."
	3:16pm Polyus: I cannot picture that, especially crooning Peter Sinfield lyrics.
	👻 3:17pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Always thought Ferry & Robert Calvert shared a common .. something .. in vocal technique. BF was the stronger of the two, but there are moments when they could be "almost" interchangeable.
	3:18pm Chris from DC: It's time to get the Led out.
	3:18pm V Priceless: I'd pay in gold to hear Ferry sing "The Great Deceiver", that's for sure..if I had gold.
	3:20pm Dean: Seems to me Daryl Hall would have made a better vocalist for KC than Wetton or Belew. Could be wrong. Oh, yeah, @VP. For sure. That and "Night Watch."
	3:22pm the Master: You musical instinct is uncanny
	3:23pm V Priceless: abowie! Sweet set, Mr. F!
	3:23pm Michael 98145: what they said
	👻 3:23pm Ken From Hyde Park: Seems "Mr. Giant Man" is up to 77 clicky stars. Just 23 more and it gets up to Elite Level.
	3:24pm Cliff in Prague: 78 - it doesn't count your own.
	👻 3:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: Even better...22 to go!
	👻 3:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: I believe it was the first tune I ever clicked when the stars first appeared here.
	👻 3:26pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ...but of course.
	3:26pm MacGuffin: Sorry, but it is this the most dreary Bowie track ever?
	3:26pm βrian: Like Generalissimo Francisco Franco, but somehow different.
	3:30pm Michael 98145: yoda say * you have not to find out the reality, you are the reality *
	3:31pm V Priceless: heroes
	3:31pm Dean: HEROES
	3:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wind wigkey : en.wikipedia.org...
	3:31pm MacGuffin: Heroes!
	3:31pm Lulu: Fabio, et al - do you think the passing of so many bigger than life people last year was like in any way this cosmic exit so they wouldnt have to be here for what lies ahead?
	3:31pm Michael 98145: ( typo "stattion" )
	3:31pm donnie: Heroes
	3:31pm Chris from DC: If you read Bowie in Berlin, Station to Station definitely laid some of the groundwork for the trilogy.
	3:32pm MacGuffin: What lies ahead. Lulu?
	3:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Lulu: When Cohen died the day before the USA?
	3:32pm Ike: @Lulu, sure, celebrities are going to magically stop dying now that it's 2017. ;)
	3:33pm MacGuffin: I just thank God that Betty White survived.
	3:33pm dale: square room! love it!
	3:34pm alex: Low/Heros/Lodger!!! I could you forget!!!
	3:34pm Cliff in Prague: Even Abe Vigoda didn't make it.
	3:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Year of Fire Monkey will become Fire Rooster. Less confusing & tricksy maybe - but likely even more arrogant.
	3:35pm listener Rey: The Idiot has a place in that Berlin grouping tho not a Bowie record per se
	3:35pm Michael 98145: Them lies ahead
	3:36pm Lulu: @macguffin idk something dark it seems
	3:36pm Ike: On another note, Pidge will be trying out for the morning slot on Mon. & Tue. I must be nice! I must repress the urge to comment things like "REO Speedwagon?!?! BAD PIGEON! YOU'RE WORSE THAN HITLER" or "Bleh! Bread is such a moldy band!"
	3:36pm Lulu: @ike well thats some good news at least!
	3:37pm dale: thank god van morrison didn't stick around to sing this.
	3:38pm coelacanth∅: hello Fabio and army of Failures ...this is the best them song i've ever heard.
	3:38pm MacGuffin: @Lulu: Oh, things will be fine.
	3:40pm dale: bread got stale. by the end they were toast
	3:40pm Michael 98145: ( so very 1967 )
	3:41pm coelacanth∅: MacGuffin - in other words, "lay back and enjoy it"?
	3:42pm MacGuffin: @coelacanth: No, just stop overreacting. It's unseemly. And it plays into his (small) hands.
	3:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Good point - but I think Drumpf'll have to be actively opposed. ...Influence maybe of hanging w/ another band w/ a Morrison in L.A. (which they did a bit) - tho' interestingly no keyboard...
	3:45pm Ike: Or "G'morning CP! Ah, Chicago is a nice band... for my cat to poop on!"
	3:46pm Chris from DC: Ooh, Davis Redford.
	3:46pm coelacanth∅: overreacting is not pragmatic, but "unseemly"?! what an asinine thing to say. ...and it's not acknowledging the problems that have brought this country and this planet to a point of irreversible shit storm for the majority of people.
	3:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...seamless segue...
	3:47pm dale: fabio - follow this up with the poppy family's 'free from the city' - plenty-o-sitar in that one.
	3:47pm MacGuffin: One must retain one's dignity.
	3:51pm TDK60: Wow Fab, rockin' in the "free" world. Got any Floyd?
	3:55pm Lulu: what is dignity?
	3:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Interesting to consider. Sometimes I think Obama was too much about 'dignity'. Too much of that & it's passive Normalization & Stockholm Syndrome. Too much passivity & presumption has got us here generally, I think. & by here I mean - colossal wealth inequality, irreversible climate change, environmental mass extinctions, class war leading to global embrace of Fascism, failing justice systems, utterly degraded infrastructure, economic & societal collapse, & other trivia...
	4:02pm MacGuffin: Dignity is not getting hysterical just because your side has had a setback. The Trump years will be ridiculous but this too shall pass.
	4:03pm Splits: Fabs!
	4:05pm Polyus: The only couple of Clark Hutchinson tracks I have heard were quite different from each other. I wish someone would reissue their stuff again, would like to hear more.
	4:06pm Chris from DC: This album is the place to go.
	4:07pm Wilson K: Well, this rules.
	4:08pm Brendan: Im there man. Dig.
	4:09pm Brendan: Love how this morphed from a native american thing into a boleroesque groove
	4:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah - I don't think it's all one or the other - but what reason to not expect the worst administration in history (@ least our own)? There's already damage to civil society - & his cabinet is full of Oligarchs & people determined to destroy the very departments they're supposed to run. He's surrounding himself w/ Generals & dispensing w/ Diplomacy...Were that it was only 'ridiculous'. The country & the world are @ critical junctures - & the reins are being handed to a hate-filled racist nationalist business fraud, bankruptcy pest, & game show host famous for terminating people. But - this is not Unreality TV - this is the real stage...
	4:11pm coelacanth∅: okay, MacGuffin -good points; but it's not about one's "side" having a setback. that shit's for the republicans and, to a smaller degree, the democrats. it's about the world having setbacks. (see RR @3:56) -people who are passionately upset are so because they are concerned - or scared- for all the people of this planet. ...but yes, at least this era shall be entertaining.
	4:11pm TDK60: Dig that psych-raga-rock, Fabio.
	4:12pm Dean: OED, first entry on "dignity": "The quality of being worthy or honourable; worthiness, worth, nobleness, excellence." Best quotation that supports RRN63's remark, justifying scare quotes around "dignity": 1836 H. Taylor Statesman xv. 107 It is of the essence of real dignity to be self-sustained, and no man's dignity can be asserted without being impaired.
	4:12pm Dean: More like AY-vi-guh, isn't it?
	4:15pm Brendan: No way!
	4:15pm TDK60: I can't believe Norway (supposedly liberal?) has ended radio! Why? For High Definition Radio? Maybe it will inspire some pirates there?
	4:16pm Brendan: We dropped the r for radio
	4:16pm Lulu: Norway ended radio as a symbolic gesture to the end of times
	4:17pm Cliff in Prague: Actually they're trying to force people to switch over to digital radio
	4:17pm TDK60: Cliff: And digital radio costs $?
	4:18pm Ike: That move by Norway is too wacky. I bet no big countries will dick around w/a screwy move like that. Small countries are more likely to pull these weird experimental moves. Consumers don't want to all have to buy new digital radios. Too extreme.
	4:18pm Bronwyn Bishop: Hey Fabio and everyone!
	4:19pm Polyus: Theater in my town is showing a 35 mm print of the original THX-1138 this weekend (not the jazzed-up later cut). Hoping I can make it, but lots going on.
	4:19pm TDK60: That's a damn shame there, Oslo! Bergen! Trondheim! Tromso! "No static at all".
	4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I dunno. It happened to TV & we survived. Will there be airwave broadcast of digital radio?
	4:20pm dale: norway is ending national fm broadcasts - i can't find any mention of private broadcasters. howsabout shortwave and the broadcast band?
	4:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...presumably heading to general broadcast of wifi signal - internet - anyhow.
	4:21pm Cliff in Prague: Yes, they're switching to DAB, you can still receive stations for free, it's just that it's digitally encoded instead of analog. Kind of like HDTV vs. NTSC/PAL.
	4:22pm dale: instead of just 5 stations they will get 22 so it isn't a bad thing.
	4:23pm Brendan: You have to get a digital radio or get a conversion kit. A pain for car radios.
	4:23pm TDK60: Oh...is there an article on this (Norway) online?
	4:24pm Cliff in Prague: Digital encoding = no interference or static, however a weak station will just drop out instead of fading out. TDK60 - www.engadget.com...
	4:24pm coelacanth∅: digital radio is shit, relatively speaking. that's sad. ...although it can't sound any worse than sirius. - but it's all about greed in any case.
	4:25pm Ike: @RRN63, yeah but most 40+ folks have far more radios than TVs. Cars have radios built in, but not TVs built in. I have something like 5 or 6 radios without even trying. They're just lying around. Also upgrading to HDTV was a clear huge improvement in pic quality but digital radio will NOT be any better-sounding, I'm sure. Already-existing "HD radio" is useless garbage and doesn't sound any better than analog.
	👻 4:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: In mountainous Norway, it's difficult to get line-of-sight to transmitters.
	4:25pm βrian: "No, I don't want those tickets. But thanks, anyway." How's that?
	4:25pm Whooda: 2-0-0-9-0-8-6-0-0-0....Oh I hope I win! Answer, answer, answer DJ Strength Through Failure Fabio.
	4:26pm melinda: Howdy everyone
	4:27pm TDK60: Thanks Cliff.
	4:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: A digital radio in a fossil fuel car: representing a technological span of three centuries. Good points Ike. I never listen to airwave radio, if I can help it - streams @ home & podcasts outside it...oh - my alarm clock radio... @KenFHP: The same for analog or digital signals; NorthNewEngland here has the same problem w/ hills...
	4:28pm geezerette: Hey melinda, and dudes. :)
	4:29pm Brendan: Those Norwegian weather broadcasts weren't that important anyway
	4:30pm βrian: "That parrot is just pining for FM radio, that's all."
	4:31pm geezerette: Stately Anne Gillis.
	4:32pm Cecile: Did you ever think that Obama had to keep an aura of dignity because he was our first black President? You see it on Fox News and the idio-right sites. He chastises someone gently, it's lashing out. He's doing normal lame-duck pardons and other business he knows he can get through, Fox News calls it "a year-long temper tantrum". And don't even get me started on how Hillary was treated. Yes, she was an Establishment candidate, but I heard from the left and right that her only qualifications were that she was a woman
	4:32pm Cliff in Prague: Digital helps a lot with shortwave.....but who listens to THAT anymore?! No real improvement in audio quality for FM as far as I can tell. Hey melinda & geezerette!
	4:33pm Cecile: "you girls and your girl candidate have your fun."
	4:36pm geezerette: Hi Cliff!
	4:37pm TDK60: Shortwave had interesting propaganda/news from governments. And human interest type stories one might hear on "public" radio. It was exciting and nerdy at the same time to be DXer.
	4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @C'ec: Oh absolutely true - true. Obama could not be 'the angry black man' - & wasn't. I think Democrats went NeoLiberal as a response to the NeoConservatives - that is, dragged the DemParty to the Right/'Center' - & found there was no Left anymore - & no 'Center' to stand on. (Oops Hillary.) Maybe now in present straits we can actually start to address all this together - but the DNC has to get there too...
	4:38pm Linda Lee: loving the sounds. fantastic. yes, i want 2 tickets! thank you! unfortunately i can't use them.
	4:39pm TDK60: RRN: Please, The Demz never were and never will be "left"!
	4:39pm Linda Lee: the job of the DNC has been to neutralize & absorb the Left for decades now. they're not making a Left turn any time soon. forget it.
	4:39pm geezerette: Cecile,couldn't believe the reflexive misogyny myself! I was dumb enough to think we were over that.
	4:39pm melinda: Yo Cliff!
	4:41pm melinda: @cecile: yeah, Obama really had to walk a fine line.
	4:41pm TDK60: Gotta go y'all. Fabio, maybe Floyd next time?
	4:42pm geezerette: Howdy Linda Lee!
	4:42pm Cliff in Prague: TDK60 - One of these days I'm going to rig up a good enough antenna to pull in Radio Pyongyang. Them and Radio Havana Cuba are the last Commie stations on the air!
	4:42pm Linda Lee: hello geezerette!!
	4:42pm Cecile: I hope Keith Ellison gets the chairmanship. he is a great rep. I'm in his district and got the best email back to my demand that he not confirm Seth Mnuchin or any of those other scoundrels. I call myself a Liberaltarian. I like small government. But it has to the a small government that keeps the safety net taut, and the roads fixed.
	4:43pm Linda Lee: has anyone heard the otters on organ today? good stuff! :-)
	4:44pm melinda: I'm hoping Ellison gets the DNC chair, too.
	4:45pm Cliff in Prague: And then there's Radio Martí broadcast from Miami, and routinely jammed by the Cuban government: en.wikipedia.org...
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yeah yeah - I know. Bernie for example is both an Independent & a Senator: trying his best from Inside a System a true Left would say should not exist. But he decided not to run Independent & divide the vote. This election result is a symptom of Default System Failure - & the radical Left says even the end-stage disintegration of it...Unfortunately, Libertarianism, got highjacked into the Tea Party & getting even more radical Republicans in the back door under the guise of 'Deregulation' & 'personal freedumbs' & being 'pro-business'...so I'm feeling excessively Socialist these days...
	4:45pm Linda Lee: at this point 'small government' is polspeak for pillaging the public trough. functional safety net, infrastructure isn't relevant.
	4:45pm Chris from DC: Cecile I like that Liberaltarian thing. That would resonate.
	4:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh - Libera - L - tarian - I see...
	4:46pm Linda Lee: don't believe we're actually getting anywhere until we realize we don't have a functional government, per se. Trump et al will make that completely clear. what we have is full scale opportunism.
	4:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Deregulate - privatize - let it fail - sell it to the 1%.
	4:47pm Linda Lee: when half the nation's people are officially poor, you don't have functional government.
	4:48pm Linda Lee: failure accomplished!
	4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Isn't it really that simple? & perpetual warfare is foreign policy failure.
	4:50pm Brendan: On the other hand tomorrow's Friday
	4:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (Deregulate & Defund.)
	4:50pm Bronwyn Bishop: Agreed Linda
	4:50pm Linda Lee: actually, perpetual warfare is foreign policy success, if the main point is profiteering. & considering the general upshot of our massive engagements, there can be no other point! because all that improves is industry profit.
	4:51pm Lulu: i dont follow :(
	4:51pm Linda Lee: look up the definition of 'failed state'. we're right on schedule. we are not exceptional. not at all. we can easily fit the profile.
	4:51pm Cecile: yeah, I know, Linda Lee. I remember voting for a mayoral candidate, even though he was personally conservative, because he said that his agenda would be to get the roads fixed, snow plowed in the winter, better police protection in the inner city neighborhoods,spruce up the community gardens and give more money to the schools. He didn't get out of the primaries, but the candidate who won, borrowed heavily from his platform.
	👻 4:52pm Rev. Turnip Druid: what th'Toad said. about what Cecile said.
	4:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If there wasn't Oil there - the perpetual warfare wouldn't be happening there.
	4:52pm Linda Lee: so ~ is it being handled Cecile?
	4:53pm Cecile: And then he sold a block of downtown Minneapolis to Target Corp, displacing 30 thriving businesses.
	4:53pm Linda Lee: yes. ok. anything for the fcking vote. then fck all.
	4:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - because - he's Pro-Business...Free Market - & Thank You...
	4:54pm Cecile: Our stuff is hanging in there, but we have a good tax base and unusually involved citizenry. It's fragile. And the police protection is not anything to write home about.
	4:54pm Linda Lee: look up your man's name at opensecrets.org some time. see where Target sits on the list of political contributions.
	4:55pm Cecile: yeah, I know.
	4:55pm Linda Lee: seems like you're riding on what's already been done, but the future is unclear. .. guy sounds like a dildo so far.
	4:57pm Linda Lee: Rev ~ re fossil fuels. of course. part of late stage extraction. everyone knows it's too finite a resource! so the scramble is on.
	4:57pm Linda Lee: it's all too transparent. ...
	4:58pm Cecile: he's out of office. People used to call him "the music man". He often talked a big game. He wasn't a terrible mayor. Just more into being liked than effective. During the bus strike of '04, he was one of the last major officials in the area who wasn't a wingnut to throw his support to us strikers. US reps, the mayor of St. Paul, every other official made a statement of support. He squeaked his displeasure in around Week 4 of a 6 week strike.
	4:59pm Linda Lee: sorry got confused about the start of the term! as if the new guy was in already. i need food. :-D
	5:01pm Cliff in Prague: I have a neurologist appointment on Inauguration Day, hahah
	5:02pm Cecile: oh, that's fine. I sometimes think he's still my mayor, too.
	👻 5:03pm Rev. Turnip Druid: I work about 2 blocks from the White House. Definitely going in that day. Will take long lunchbreak with camera. The street-photo opportunities will be HIGH-LARIOUS.
	5:09pm Michael 98145: I expect CSPAN will cover the event ...
	5:10pm Linda Lee: i plan on spending inauguration day doing what i normally do. living my life as best i can. working to survive the winter without heating oil & iffy power. no one involved in that inauguration gives a damn about this. i'll bet on that.
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @LL: Thx for tip on OpenSecrets (fb: www.facebook.com...). Fabio - apologies for much Politrix chatter: no disrespect to the Music - on the contrary you always deliver, & create a Zone where we relate...FullMoon madness & such...
	5:11pm Linda Lee: you're welcome Rev! :-) Fabio doesn't care about the board, does he?
	5:11pm melinda: @RevTurnip: that will be interesting! I was disappointed to hear that there will be no WFMU correspondent at the inauguration, but I guess the timing was bad for Jim the P
	5:12pm Linda Lee: Rev, on their website you can type in a pol's name & get the skinny.
	5:13pm Michael 98145: Wolf Moon tonight : www.sfgate.com...
	5:13pm Linda Lee: many confounding mysteries solved there.
	5:13pm Chris from DC: Not familiar with this Art Fleury, but clicky.
	5:16pm Linda Lee: personally have a soft spot for any artist/band with the name Art or including those letters. Art Bears, Arto Lindsay, Art Farmer, Arte Johnson ...
	👻 5:18pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @melinda: I'm guessing it would be impossible to send someone at this point. DC is a small town; doesn't take much to shut everything down. The pope visit last year was amusing, to say the least...
	5:19pm Chris from DC: The national xmas tree lighting created gridlock.
	👻 5:21pm Rev. Turnip Druid: BUT: I've been told the tour-bus parking permit requests on inauguration day is at about 200, but requests for the Women's March is more like 1200 busses. Tee-hee!
	👻 5:21pm Rev. Turnip Druid: the surge is working!
	5:22pm Chris from DC: Awesome.
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...WolfMoon~WoofMoo...
	5:28pm Billy Jam: Strength Thru Fabio's Show - Wot up RevRabit, Rev Turnip, Cecile, Ken from Hyde Park and all else tuned into W F M U
	5:30pm Mr. Pumpy: Lovin' this gutteral hyena pop.
	5:32pm Mr. Pumpy: *guttural
	👻 5:32pm Rev. Turnip Druid: BEEJAM!
	5:33pm Linda Lee: actually think you were right the first time Mr. P! hola Billy Jam!!
	5:34pm melinda: Love the deep droney chorus.
	5:34pm common: hello fabio and you good people
	5:36pm dale: that igor piece was great.
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah.
	5:38pm geezerette: This seems like appropriate music for the season.
	5:38pm TehBadDr: Really liking the dark droney soundz Fabio!
	👻 5:38pm Rev. Turnip Druid: PREACH IT, Fabio.
	5:39pm Dean: Release Music Orchestra were nicely jazzy Krautrock. Secret Oyster, except for the fact that they weren't German, are good, too.
	5:39pm common: good to hear you clay
	5:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...@ worst, 'Fusion' was the worst of both worlds - diluting both Rawk's drive & Jazz's intricacy. Too easy to forget that stuff - because we are selective about it now!...Otherwise, it's just what Word you call it...
	5:41pm Michael 98145: La Morte Al Lavoro - Death at work
	👻 5:42pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Thought for a minute you were talking about KHAN, the Steve Hillage/Dave Stewart vehicle...
	5:42pm melinda: The drug references are cracking me up
	5:45pm V Priceless: great show, Fabio! Much thanks!
	5:46pm melinda: I like the Khon (?)
	5:46pm Linda Lee: i like the Kohn too.
	5:47pm Cecile: hey, billy!
	5:51pm Carmichael: Suitably spacey music for my afternoon.
	5:51pm Linda Lee: yes. Terry Riley.
	5:51pm dale: ...and robert reed.
	5:52pm Cecile: Baba O' Riley was a tribute to Meher Baba and Terry Riley.
	5:52pm steve: isnt the OReilley in Baba OReilley actually a reference to Terry?
	5:52pm geezerette: Thanks Fabio. Collective consciousness well caught.
	5:53pm Carmichael: Correct a mundo, Cecile. Not many people realize that!
	5:53pm melinda: @Cecile: I remember reading that somewhere but didn't know anything about Terry Riley at the time, now it makes sense.
	5:53pm Dean: Terry Cohen?
	5:53pm common: hee hee
	5:54pm dale: those are solo cups.
