Especially loved the interview with April March

Ooh, BoomBoom alumnus Jenny Hval is doing a special show at NYC MOMA www.moma.org...

3:09pm djsheilab:

HELLO FRIDAY FRIENDS!!!! Happy to have you here! Quite frazzled today from a big move this week. But at least I got all my records unpacked :)

♥ 3:09pm frozen_peas:

Is this a geography themed set? Yay!

3:09pm Brian Cat:

I was definitely in the mood for some R&B.

♥ 3:09pm BronwynB:

@Adrian in London: What is the serial killer drama??? I love serial killer dramas!!!! Speaking of which, American Crime Story is finally back and I'm shook

3:09pm P-90:

On 1-10 scale, France Gall tribute show went beyond 11

♥ 3:10pm listener james from westwood:

Ankle sprains are no fun at all. Hoping it's back in fighting trim soon, JakeGould!

3:10pm Carmichael:

You never know how many records you have until you move ...

3:10pm djsheilab:

frozen_peas—A bit of record storytelling for this first set.

3:11pm D. Lightfoot:

Thank god it's boom boom time

3:11pm northguineahills:

crikey, I moved 5 months ago, and I just have my cds unpacked, I'll hit the vinyl this weekend.

3:11pm djsheilab:

P-90—11! Woohoo! Thanks :)

♥ 3:11pm Michael 98145:

Happy New Home, DJ Sheila

3:12pm βrian:

The modern day Sisyphus does not push a boulder but schlepps vinyl from home to home to home to...

3:12pm JasonInBoston:

What a way to kick things off! Love these songs.

♥ 3:12pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Hello and Boom Boom to all!

♥ 3:12pm Rob Kopp:

You moved again? I thought you had already moved recently

3:12pm Jocelyn:

Hoping all the records survived the move! I lost a few in my last move.

3:13pm djsheilab:

northguineahills—Somehow I thought I could move, unpack + do my show in the span of three days. Far too ambitious!

3:13pm Dominick:

www.dailymotion.com...

3:13pm JakeGould:

@ListenerJames: Thanks!!!

I’m so thrilled I can see it bruising now. Oh sweet bruise of healing.

3:13pm JasonInBoston:

POINTER SISTERS! My Northern Soul fix-yeah!

♥ 3:14pm Rob Kopp:

Just play us the first 60 singles from the first box you unpacked and we're happy

♥ 3:14pm Adrian in London:

@BronwynB It's called La Mante, a French TFI production with Carole Bouquet as a serial killer, 'The Mantis'. It's nowhere near as good as Spiral, the greatest French cop show, but it's pretty good, nevertheless (even though TheContessa and I have to pause and yell "Hang on, that would NEVER happen!!!" etc

♥ 3:16pm chris:

hi, Sheila and boomers.
congratulations, Rob K!
Adrian, have you and the Contessa watched Frozen Dead? i liked.

♥ 3:17pm steveo:

haha but will Sheila heed Twa Toots's plea?

3:17pm djsheilab:

Congratulations Rob Kopp!

3:17pm djsheilab:

steveo—Hehe!

3:17pm the hip replacement:

The Hustle!

3:19pm Brian Cat:

hip replacement - youi're right! I thought it sounded friendly.

♥ 3:19pm steveo:

3:20pm Brian Cat:

Great song. I used to sing Rainy NIght in Jersey.

♥ 3:20pm Rob Kopp:

Again thnx everyone

♥ 3:21pm Adrian in London:

@chris No, we haven't seen that, although it's on my list. Braquo is another good French cop show. French cops seem to like slapping their suspects a lot.

3:21pm The Contessa:

Love Brook, Sheila

3:22pm JakeGould:

SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG!

♥ 3:22pm ChrisB.:

Hi SheilaB! How about something to celebrate the birthday of Shelley Fabares?

3:23pm still b/p:

@ngh -- 9:51, UM
www.wfmu.org...

3:23pm Alexio:

You’re sounding tinny today!

3:26pm JakeGould:

This whole set is a subtweet?

3:26pm EarlyMorningInSeoul:

Hi everyone!

♥ 3:28pm listener james from westwood:

w00t—Nicole Atkins! Citizenship! Good things afoot in the Boom-Boomiverse!

3:28pm JakeGould:

Oh man! Sheila is an illegal. She been stealing all of our jobs all week his time? Yikes!!!

Seriously, congrats and hope you nail it.

♥ 3:29pm steveo:

can you submit a demo tape in lieu of the test?

3:30pm βrian:

Sheila soon to be 'murkin? Congrats.

3:30pm northguineahills:

@still b/p: lultz!

3:31pm Neil in Somerset:

Only just discovered Hollie. Her dad was the drummer in the Sex Pistols. I love trivia.

3:32pm Jocelyn:

Good luck on the test! I know you'll ace it.

3:32pm Jocelyn:

Hi EarlyMorning!

3:33pm Frank Zaatar:

Wow, citizenship test! Sure you'll ace it. Cause we know that deep knowledge of American girl group history pretty much qualifies you automatically. BTW, I just went to a friend's swearing in ceremony. It was one of the most moving events I've ever seen.

3:34pm slugluv1313:

good afternoon, Sheila and everyone!
love Hollie Cook! gotta see if i can catch that live gig in Brooklyn
@ Neil in Somerset -- she was also in The Slits when they had reformed some years ago (and before, sadly, Ari Up passed away)

3:34pm EarlyMorningInSeoul:

Hi Jocelyn!

3:36pm djsheilab:

Righty-o! Now I can properly say hello to you all—P-90, Brian, RomanDogBird, Bronwyn B., Guido from Cologne, ncjay, Rob Kopp, Adrian in London, The Contessa, Tome, Jocelyn, Listener James in Westwood, Brian Cat, Michael 98145, steveo, JakeGould, zmzz, frozen_peas, Carmichael, D. Lightfoot, northguineahills, JasonInBoston, Dominick, chris, the hip replacement, ChrisB., Neil In Somerset, EarlyMorningSeoul, Frank Zaatar, slugluv1313!! Did i get everyone?

3:36pm Neil in Somerset:

Thanks slugluv. I knew she did a song called Ari up. That explains why.

♥ 3:36pm JtotheK:

hi sheilaB, hi boom boomers. @sheila - how do you like the flip of the shirley matthews 45?

3:38pm djsheilab:

JtotheK—you know, I don't think I've listened to the flip. One day I plan to listen to every flip of every 45 in my collection. I just don't know when I'll get around to doing it!

3:38pm Jocelyn:

Dita!

3:38pm The Contessa:

Dita! THE AMAZING DITA VON TEESE!

♥ 3:39pm Adrian in London:

This Dita track is genuinely good. Did I mention we've seen her show? (Everyone: YES!!)

3:39pm zmzz:

lithania?

3:39pm glenn:

who's the cult leader dude in the pic with dita?

3:39pm djsheilab:

The Contessa—Wouldn't it be wonderful if she tours this record?

3:40pm djsheilab:

glenn—Hahaha! Sebastien Tellier, who wrote + produced the record.

♥ 3:41pm Adrian in London:

2000 copies of Dita/Sebastian on pink vinyl from Rough Trade

3:41pm djsheilab:

Adrian in London—Ooh! I'm on it!

3:42pm michael z:

I LOVE the Pierces. We need more music from them.

3:42pm The Contessa:

Oh my goodness, Sheila, that would be wonderful. She is so professional and SO PERFECT!

3:43pm slugluv1313:

@ Neil in Somerset -- here they all are! hard to believe this was recorded almost ten years ago!
www.youtube.com...

♥ 3:43pm listener james from westwood:

Virgin Suicides!

♥ 3:43pm ChrisB.:

Sheila, First Aid Kit released a new album today. Have you heard it?

3:43pm djsheilab:

michael z.—the "You & I" album was flawless! I wish we had more as well. One of the sisters made a solo record, but I didn't love it.

♥ 3:43pm Rob Kopp:

Like the Pierces as well. See I kept their song I put your records on from SBB#29.

3:44pm Brian Cat:

I like this Pierces track also. I still say that Sheila has 80s tastes, although wasn't she in her metal phase at that time? DJ?

3:44pm Carmichael:

Not knowing anything about youth culture and cinema, wiki says the Pierces are known for the opening song from Pretty Little Liars, "Secrets".

3:44pm holly from New Zealand:

Ohhhhh how I love this soundtrack

3:44pm djsheilab:

ChrisB.—Funny you mention that cos when I chose to play this Pierces track, I thought I should also be playing the new First Aid Kit album. But I want to give it a proper listen before I choose what to play.

3:45pm The Contessa:

If you haven't read The Virgin Suicides it is really fantastic!

♥ 3:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...we know where to come to start the weekend w/ GoodVibes...

3:46pm holly from New Zealand:

@Contessa, I concur!!!

3:46pm EarlyMorningInSeoul:

The movie is also being released on the Criterion Collection this April!

♥ 3:46pm listener james from westwood:

One of your uncommon books to be told with a first-person plural narrative voice.

♥ 3:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...[something something] not worth committing suicide over!'...
...*You* obviously have never been a 14 y.o. girl!'...

3:47pm northguineahills:

Talking about moves, the Virgin Suicides sndtrk was playing when I was moving out of my place in FL to NYC in 2000 (literally).

♥ 3:48pm JtotheK:

sheila, the shirley flip 'you can count on that' is solid, b/w agreed - i have many 45s with one side unheard by me.

♥ 3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...just this side of A Capella...

♥ 3:49pm Adrian in London:

A propos of nothing, Judy Dyble, first Fairport Convention singer, is playing in London tomorrow lunchtime. Free show at Union Chapel.

3:49pm Neil in Somerset:

Thanks for the link slugluv.

♥ 3:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...'it contrasts with cantata, which is usually accompanied singing'...

3:50pm TDK60:

Free show?! Judy Dyble! Wish I were nearby. Union chapel looks like a good place; saw a vid of Procol Harum playing there.

♥ 3:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Interesting: www.judydyble.com...
...when SandyDenny (Top10 Singers Ever) was w/ the Strawbs, maybe??

♥ 3:53pm Adrian in London:

@TDK60 Union Chapel is a magnificent venue. There's a thing called Daylight Music, which features three artists, and it;s about a fiver donation to get in. I;ve seen the likes of Laetitia Sadier, GLASS, Sweet Billy Pilgrim and others play there, with kids running around…

3:54pm slugluv1313:

@ Neil in Somerset -- anytime! hope you enjoy :)

♥ 3:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Awwesome Adrian.

♥ 3:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Thx for a couple topdrawer minutes SheilaBee!

3:57pm Brian Cat:

Yeah, they had high fidelity back then, even in the 20s also.

♥ 3:57pm BronwynB:

"don;t you make me high" sounds like it should be sung in an overly sultry fashion by a sexy redhead in a seedy bar in a period TV drama

♥ 3:58pm BronwynB:

i mean it's a great song, it just seems like the kind of song that would be seized upon for such purposes

3:58pm slugluv1313:

ah! i recall the Maria Muldaur cover of this song -- but have never heard this (original?) version -- thank you, Sheila!

3:58pm djsheilab:

BronwynB—I like that description!

3:59pm djsheilab:

slugluv1313—I haven't heard the Maria Muldaur version. Gonna check it out. Thank you!

4:00pm Jasons:

Chara! Another one I forgot. Thanks! My rec is the Junior Sweet album.

4:02pm JasonInBoston:

Re: this Chara track: back in the late 90s trip hop days when EVERYBODY was sampling the drums from "It's a New Day" by the Skullsnaps. Back when it was Jnco jeans, Sneaker Pimps and Hooverphonic, etc

4:02pm harold fridkis:

happy belated new year,sheila!

4:04pm Marshall Stacks:

Hi Sheila - I think you mean Perdue, not Pfizer.

4:04pm zmzz:

ohh nan golden

4:04pm holly from New Zealand:

Dang, I’d love to see that Hockney show...

♥ 4:04pm frozen_peas:

Nan Goldin is a saint.

♥ 4:05pm Adrian in London:

All over the world: there are Sackler galleries in London, at the Serpentine and the V&A

4:05pm dale:

afternoon shelia - thanks for the warm music and the cold, cold history

♥ 4:05pm JtotheK:

@JasonInBoston - i would like to find the skull snaps 45 someday. or an original LP.

♥ 4:05pm rsj:

pretty much a rule about the more good after the more bad

4:05pm harold fridkis:

it's such a big surprise to hear Country Girl-City Man by billy vera and judy clay. i have that on CD,and i first heard it on the radio back in 1986,and it's been 32 years since i last heard it. thank you so much for playing it today,sheila!

4:06pm slugluv1313:

aww Sheila, thank you!
one of those "naughty" songs from my teenage years, hah! :)
i believe it is on Maria's first solo album, the one with "Midnight at the Oasis"

♥ 4:06pm listener james from westwood:

Sickens me to see the name of one of the Kochs on a building in Midtown.

4:06pm PBastille:

Hi Sheila! Been listening but just got online

4:07pm glenn:

i will bet a million dollars that if y'all had universal health care your opioid crisis would be about 5% of what it is.

4:07pm P-90:

That New Yorker article is very well researched and written, and tells basically everything one might want to know about the causes of the "opioid crisis". Recommended to anyone who's interested.

4:07pm Neil in Somerset:

The Sacklers j u st try to buy good karma. It doesn't work that way folks.

4:07pm harold fridkis:

i love that song Big Town Boy by shirley matthews. classic!

4:08pm glenn:

which of course, would suck for big pharma.

♥ 4:08pm chris:

Sackler made his fortune in publishing and trade advertising... yes, in medical profession. he was an art collector as well - en.wikipedia.org...

i think its his family who has now sold their souls.

4:08pm slugluv1313:

@ Marshall Stacks -- i think BOTH are evil, pharmaceuticals and factory farming!

♥ 4:09pm Adrian in London:

As Dara Flynn said on Twitter in 2013: "I need to get in touch with Emilio Estevez. Does anyone have his Emailio Addresstevez?"

♥ 4:09pm chris:

or if we eliminated the racist prohibition against cannabis, glenn!

♥ 4:10pm BronwynB:

WELSH!

4:10pm michael z:

Nan Goldin has a petition that needs signing. Elizabeth Sackler has said that she supports Nan’s demands that the Sacklers support educational programs and rehabs to rectify some of the damage they have wrought.

4:10pm Marshall Stacks:

@slugluv1313, no, Perdue is the name of the Sackler family pharmaceutical company,. I wasn't referring to the chicken processor.

♥ 4:10pm BronwynB:

cornish is nice too and all

4:10pm TDK60:

Cornish! Another one of the Celtic languages. Close to Welsh. I think Cornish almost died out but there are folks trying to revive it.

4:11pm northguineahills:

Cornish technically went extinct in the early 20th century. But, linguists created lexicons of the language before it died, and since it's technically similar to Welsh, it's been revived.

4:11pm Listener Robert:

The crisis is of people not getting enough effective pain treatment, which means narcotic analgesics should be used MORE liberally, not less. You know the biggest risk factor in getting someone "addicted"? By TELLING them that a certain drug is "addictive", that you might not be "able" to stop using it. "Addiction" is a belief system.

♥ 4:11pm -Ken:

Is this brand new Gwenno?

4:11pm Neil in Somerset:

Cornish is very similar to Welsh. But if you go to cornwall you won't hear anyone speaking it. Practically a dead language.

4:12pm djsheilab:

Ken—Brand new Gwenno indeed!

4:12pm glenn:

cornish has 50% more vowels than welsh.

4:12pm Mandy:

unfortunately some of the greatest art pieces on earth were commissioned by rich guys trying to buy good kharma. look at the D'Medicis for example :-/

4:12pm P-90:

@listener james: the fountains in front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art on 5th Ave and the entire ballet theater at Lincoln Center are now also named for Koch brothers too...

4:12pm djsheilab:

Oops! I got it the Sackler pharmaceutical company wrong—it's Purdue!

4:12pm djsheilab:

Here's the New Yorker piece:
www.newyorker.com...

4:14pm slugluv1313:

@ Marshall Stacks -- YES! just read Nan Goldin's article and realized my mistake! great big DUH! on my part!

4:14pm PBastille:

so is this a Welsh rare bit or a Cornish... oh darn, can't think of a game hen pun

4:14pm JakeGould:

Here is Nan Goldin’s op-ed in Artforum announcing her own personal campaign simple called “SacklerPain” https://www.artforum.com/inprint/issue=201801&id=73181

4:14pm dale:

can we get gwenno and heino to work together?

4:14pm northguineahills:

Are the fountains named after Fred Koch? B/c he's the one Koch brother not involved w/ the family business and gives heavily to the art community?

4:16pm northguineahills:

danks for the links, sheila et Jake!

4:17pm Listener Robert:

I'm acquainted with David I. Koch, though I haven't spent MUCH time with him, and he's a good guy too. If people listened more to him, the world would be a lot better.

4:17pm slugluv1313:

but geez, i am definitely convinced at this point that all those "legal" drugs are way more addictive than the "illegal" stuff (and yes i am speaking from experience)
what makes the legally prescribed drugs even more dangerous is that, b/c they are prescribed by a doctor or some other "medical professional," they are believed to be safe . . .

♥ 4:17pm chris:

and here are the three drug distributors who continue to collude to divert opioids to the black market and are getting away with murder fortune.com...

4:19pm Listener Robert:

Slutglub, narcotics are some of the safest drugs we have, with a very long record of effective use. They're safer than aspirin or acetaminophen.

4:19pm Neil in Somerset:

Hey this is on one of those great Nippon girls comps. But the you know that djsheila ;-)

4:21pm djsheilab:

@Marshall Stacks—Thanks for the correction. Will correct in mic break.

♥ 4:22pm Michael 98145:

( moving is stressful enough, so Thank You for bringing us the usual excellent music :)

4:22pm Listener Robert:

I meant slugluv, not slutglub.

4:23pm djmorticia:

Laura Lee! Love this Sheila, just found it recently here in Malmö. Martin says hello, we've been with you from the start tonight!

♥ 4:23pm chris:

♥ 4:24pm Michael 98145:

< has a certain ring to it >?

4:24pm djsheilab:

djmorticia! So happy you're here. I hope you'll stay tuned for a little while longer. Two songs from you two coming up!

4:24pm Marshall Stacks:

Thanks, djsheilab. Loving the show, including your commentary, as always. The NYer piece was excellent, I agree. I do still like visiting the Temple of Dendur at the Met, though.

4:24pm michael z:

Wedlock is a padlock is a brilliant rhyme.

4:25pm JakeGould:

The thing about the Sacklers is their fortunes have funded tons of feminist art centers and initiatives across the nation. At the end of the day, these donations are good. These centers would not exist without rich people donating their money. But the moral contradiction is really hard to swallow.

Also, I have a news flash regarding the history of most any art museum or collection: The source of the wealth that created those spaces is pretty dirty if you dig deep enough. The positive aspect of these collections is they are more and more open to the people nowadays.

The Louvre was originally the home of French kings before Louis XIV.

4:26pm dan c:

this is a very enjoyable set of music! productivity dropping as i get immersed in the sounds.....

4:28pm JakeGould:

@ListenerRobert: Tell your Koch friends I say hello. Here… “Hello!”

4:28pm djsheilab:

JakeGould—I agree 100%. We need patrons of the arts! Wish my songs weren't 2 minutes long so I could write properly.

4:29pm zmzz:

tis is a wonderful track

4:29pm slugluv1313:

@ Listener Robert -- no prob!
and YES! when properly administered, narcotics can be great!
however -- when i had a spinal injury and could barely walk, when i got to the ER, they sent me home with 10 oxys -- and after barely a day, i understood WHY they gave me only 10!
my impression is that way too much of the "medical" profession is devoted to "managing" a problem, instead of making the effort to find the root cause and fixing that

4:29pm The Contessa:

Love all those Doris Day films

4:30pm djmorticia:

Of course Sheila! You're warming up our cold dark Swedish Friday night! :)

4:32pm still b/p:

One of the actual taglines for movie "Send Me No Flowers" --Rock is ready to make love yesterday, tomorrow, and especially to Day (Doris that is!)

4:32pm ncjay:

Eartha! Did you read this in today's WaPo?

'Sex kitten' vs. Lady Bird: The day Eartha Kitt attacked the Vietnam War at the White House

t.co...

♥ 4:32pm Michael 98145:

( a brief episode with Percocet did lead to some -interesting- dreams ... )

4:33pm JakeGould:

Also anyone saying Oxycontin or Fentanyl is not a big deal. Just give it a rest. Some people have highly addictive personalities and avoid opioids. Then doctors prescribe this stuff, they take it and BOOM.

♥ 4:33pm Stevel:

Eartha Kitt hits me right in the solar plexus.

4:33pm JakeGould:

Also what are Chicken Blintzes? If you know what a blintz is that sounds disgusting.

4:33pm hail girls:

two clicky stars for Kitt

♥ 4:34pm Michael 98145:

ditto

♥ 4:34pm Adrian in London:

@djmorticia where in Sweden are you?

4:34pm Jocelyn:

Contessa, me too! Watched Pillow Talk last night. Love watching her films before bed.

4:35pm northguineahills:

Due to nostalgia, I have a thing for 80s and 90s J-pop (it was everywhere there). *Don't judge me!*

4:35pm Jocelyn:

Slugluv, so true! I've lost too many friends over the years who believed they had no problem because the medications came from a Dr.

4:36pm The Contessa:

@Jocelyn, some of her outfits were gorgeous

♥ 4:36pm Adrian in London:

@northguineahils You should know that no-one judges your musical tastes on this show

4:36pm northguineahills:

Richard James, the first Cornish person that comes to mind.

4:36pm zmzz:

pretty compelling NYer piece, gave me good laugh at "a Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter
“None of the descendants of Arthur M. Sackler have ever had anything to do with, or benefited from, the sale of OxyContin.” Sackler-Berner made no mention of Librium, Valium, or MS Contin, but he added, “Given the current controversy surrounding OxyContin, I appreciate your clarifying the matter.” did they called up every Sackler on phone book?

4:37pm The Contessa:

@Sheila! What!

4:37pm Jocelyn:

Contessa, yes! I love the dresses with matching coats.

♥ 4:37pm Adrian in London:

@Sheila WHAT?!?!?! You went fishing off Cornwall?? Off pastie-land?!?!

4:37pm P-90:

...Pfizer has it's own long list of sins

4:38pm zmzz:

no mentions on nan golden protesting Purdue on the piece

4:38pm TDK60:

Hats off to Eartha Kitt for her candid bravery.

♥ 4:38pm Michael 98145:

... money changes everything

♥ 4:39pm Michael 98145:

( we're not here to judge your accuracy :)

4:41pm Jocelyn:

Agree with Michael, we're not ever going to judge accuracy. We're here for the music and your general awesomeness you put out in to the world.

4:41pm northguineahills:

yo tambien, sheila! My brain is the only thing I have going for me, so when I make a mistake in public or even online, I'm mortified. (I terrified when I was teacher at Hunter College).

4:41pm JakeGould:

@Zmdz: Nan Goldin only came out recently about speaking out about it. Like in the last literal two weeks. Look up “@sacklerpain” on Twitter and Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/sacklerpain

4:41pm northguineahills:

(I've gotten used to grammatical and spelling errors, I'm chill w/ that *see above*)

4:41pm djundertaker:

Wow!!! Oh god! Thank you Sheila, love that you love it!!!!

4:42pm JasonInBoston:

Stacy and I almost had Garnet Mimms marry us! Great track!

4:43pm Brian Cat:

freedom of speech, even it's a lie or a mistake. Bill of Rights.

4:43pm JakeGould:

Chicken blintzes sound so nasty.

♥ 4:43pm JtotheK:

great adorables 45! (and that mimms track was new to me, liked it!)

4:44pm lpcoverlover:

Love ya Sheila!

♥ 4:44pm Tome:

lovin' the funk ee ness this afternoon too \\///\\

4:44pm djsheilab:

JtotheK—And the Mimms is a cheap one! And so great! Gets better with each listen!

4:45pm djmorticia:

Haha, of course you have it! Always in my box, often getting asked who it is. Love the Adorables, love to spin Deep Freeze and Daddy Please as well!

♥ 4:45pm steveo:

thanks Sheila! fantastically enjoyable show today and it's time for me to hit the road

4:47pm djsheilab:

lpcoverlover—Right back atcha!

4:47pm JasonInBoston:

@djmorticia Adorables on Golden World is a different group. Recently met all the members and had them sign my sleeve for "Ooh Boy". What a surreal moment. This one on Peacock is good too.

4:48pm djsheilab:

northguineahills—Thanks for sharing :)

4:50pm slugluv1313:

ooooo MERRY CLAYTON! thank you Sheila!!!!!!!

4:51pm kerbo:

sounds soooooo good

4:52pm djmorticia:

Wow @jasoninboston, that sounds like a great moment! Well, I love both groups! But the Peacock label graphics wins, it's pure art!

4:52pm zmzz:

i had to moce back this nico piece once in a while as we all do

4:52pm Alexio:

Yessss love this tune!

♥ 4:53pm Guido from Cologne:

Is this an imroved stereo version of the first Nico album?

4:54pm glenn:

a good jackson browne tune.

4:54pm zmzz:

10 4 Jake. paralell lines with Nico and Nan: the era glamorous drug use made their fame and attention how nan coping with phama protest...

♥ 4:54pm Michael 98145:

Nico!! thank you

♥ 4:55pm Guido from Cologne:

Jackson Browne completely unknown at the time

4:56pm glenn:

he was sixteen, so pretty much.

4:57pm glenn:

In retrospective 21st century reviews AllMusic feel the album is "an unqualified masterpiece",[2] while Trouser Press feel that the album "is sabotaged by tepid arrangements and weak production" and is "of interest mainly for its links to the band Nico had just left."[5]

Nico was dissatisfied with the finished product. Looking back in 1981, she stated:
“ I still cannot listen to it, because everything I wanted for that record, they took it away. I asked for drums, they said no. I asked for more guitars, they said no. And I asked for simplicity, and they covered it in flutes! [...] They added strings and – I didn't like them, but I could live with them. But the flute! The first time I heard the album, I cried and it was all because of the flute.[6]

4:57pm djsheilab:

Guido from Cologne—It's off a CD.

4:58pm djsheilab:

Thanks for all this great info Glenn!

4:58pm glenn:

flute makes me cry too, so i get it.

♥ 4:59pm Michael 98145:

@glenn, can't even imagine the result of those changes ...

5:00pm glenn:

i kinda like chambery strings, though.

♥ 5:00pm Guido from Cologne:

My copy of "Chelsea Girls" is straight left chanel / right chanel, nothing in between. This CD seems like decent stereo.

5:01pm still b/p:

Despte my intention and attention to calendar, regrettably failed to make it to recent local substantial exhibit of Nan Goldin photos from last 40 years.

♥ 5:02pm Rob Kopp:

I'm going down to drink a glass of wine with grandma to our first grandchild. Will try to put the radio on, but I can't comment. Until next week.

♥ 5:02pm Adrian in London:

@Yami SKIP YOUR CLASS!!!!! SEVDALIZA IS MUCH MORE IMPORTANT!!!!!

♥ 5:02pm Michael 98145:

Cheers, Rob K

5:04pm TDK60:

It was probably because she was a woman musician suffering from male sexism back then -- '67 the women's lib movement was just emerging.

5:05pm Yami:

@adrian in London you are absolutely right!

5:05pm michael z:

Those male producers on These Days were Tom Wilson, John Cale and Lou Reed I think ( not at a computer)

♥ 5:06pm Adrian in London:

Nico made beautiful music but, to echo the Nan Goldin conversation from earlier, according to this article by Simon Reynolds, she was also a violent racist www.theguardian.com...

♥ 5:07pm Adrian in London:

@yami Seriously, you won't be disappointed

♥ 5:07pm Michael 98145:

and , sevdaliza.bandcamp.com

♥ 5:07pm Guido from Cologne:

Sevdaliza Cologne Feb. 4th.

Tickets sold out!
I bought the last ones!
:-)

5:08pm northguineahills:

d'oh, no one comes to FL! :(

(although I saw a female Irish raga guitar player and a band from Portland last night.)

5:08pm glenn:

tom wilson gets the only producer credit, as far as i can see.

5:09pm djsheilab:

Guido from Cologne—Hurray!

5:09pm northguineahills:

(her name was clang sayne, and quite delightful).

♥ 5:10pm Ken From Hyde Park:

I heard and enjoyed Sevdaliza this morning. If all Iranians are as cool as you two, I'd be packing my bags tonight!

5:11pm glenn:

my nephew's wife is iranian, and he's the whitest guy you ever saw.

5:11pm Yami:

It will be for music research purposes of course ;) @djsheilab @Adrian in London

5:11pm ncjay:

the segue to Diane Birch left us both breathless here, Sheila :)

5:11pm djsheilab:

Haha! Aren't you lovely Ken from Hyde Park!

5:12pm Jocelyn:

Rob, enjoy that precious bundle!

♥ 5:12pm Guido from Cologne:

Tom Wilson was busy with his girlfriends during the VU and Zappa production and let the artists do what they wan.. Guess the simply was no money for the Nico album. And the arrangements were done in a rush, as was the stero mix.

5:12pm djsheilab:

YAMI IS SKIPPING CLASS + COMING WITH ME TO SEVDALIZA!!!! Nice work Adrian In London!

5:13pm djsheilab:

ncjay—you're the best for noticing my segues, thank you :)

5:13pm zmzz:

thanx for the Nico Guardian piece. I must be called racist too but for Nico her attitude anf the incidents adds another glomour. in this hyper sensitve climate don't we need something like her?

5:14pm ncjay:

as a veteran of many mix tapes in the 70s and 80s I appreciate a good segue!

5:14pm JakeGould:

@Adrian: “Every once in a while there’d be something about Jews and I’d be, 'But Nico, I’m Jewish,' and she was like ‘Yes, yes, I don't mean you.’” One of my fave bits of of anti-Semitism is the “Oh, but you are not one of those Jews.”

“…but suddenly she said ‘I hate black people.’” And people who spontaneously shout—for no reason—“I hate black people!” are another favorite kind of racist.

PEOPLE ARE AMAZING!!!!

5:14pm Mark R:

I like this Diane Birch lady.

5:14pm northguineahills:

I dated an Iranian girl for a year back in 2003-2004. Her family was Zoroastrian. Nice girl, good family. We were just different people. It was the physical attraction that kept us together.

5:15pm djsheilab:

Say it in Italian! Say it in Italian!

5:15pm zmzz:

che oosa e?

♥ 5:16pm Michael 98145:

we're all different people :)

♥ 5:16pm frozen_peas:

this song is so dreamy!

5:16pm glenn:

i'm going back to italy in may. i'll say it then.

5:16pm JakeGould:

@Zmzz: So you have just randomly rambled on about “the Jews” and then shouted “I hate black people!” while trying to gouge out the eyeball of a singer who worked with Jimi Hendrix with a wine glass at the Chelsea Hotel once?

Pretty amazing coincidences.

I LOVE PEOPLE!!!!

5:17pm zmzz:

it seems the world even than over sesitive about it, no? but nico!

♥ 5:18pm Adrian in London:

@Sheila @Yami I am here on Earth to do good work, clearly ;-)

♥ 5:18pm Yvang:

Far better than the french Dalida/Alain Delon version.

5:19pm JakeGould:

WhatdoIknow… We have a President who watches “Shark Week” for 3 hours before letting a porn actress spank him who then makes love to her while comparing her to his own daughter.

I’M AMAZED BY PEOPLE!!!! EDNLESSLY AMAZED!!!

5:19pm northguineahills:

In the office alone, so I can scream all the lyrics of all these songs in any language! (once I know said lyrics).

5:20pm glenn:

huh. over sensitive about being hated for having been born anything other than white? i'm not so sure about that.

5:20pm zmzz:

oh no no dont' turn to politians we all lose our flares too.

♥ 5:21pm Michael 98145:

to change the subject, we hope to join the women's march tomorrow. for wives and sisters everywhere.

5:21pm djsheilab:

Let's re-direct the conversation to the VERY IMPORTANT news that Natalia Lafourcade is doing a massive US tour!!!

5:21pm JakeGould:

If I didn’t sprain my ankle, I would be marching too.

5:21pm djsheilab:

*looks at Natalia Lafourcade tour dates, goes and sobs in the corner*

5:26pm northguineahills:

well, at least 'some' people come to FL.

5:27pm djsheilab:

Mmust be a great ep of chridtine pizer

5:29pm Linda Lee:

Brava SheilaB!! fantastic tracks as always.

5:29pm michael z:

Now at a computer. I think John Cale and Lou Reed arranged the Chelsea Girls album. Tom Wilson is the great unsung producer. Cecil Taylor, Sun Ra, Bob Dylan through Like a Rolling Stone, Simon and Garfunkel, and then the first Mothers of Invention and Velvet Underground albums the same year. Later Soft Machine.

5:29pm Jocelyn:

Hi common!

5:29pm glenn:

maybe natalia could tour with toby keith, n.g.h.

♥ 5:30pm Adrian in London:

woohoo, Geowulf! Playing a small show in London in a couple of weeks.

5:30pm djsheilab:

Thanks Linda Lee!

5:31pm djsheilab:

Adrian in London—Are you going? You must must report back! I've listened to her singing in the studio and her voice sounds even better live than on record.

5:31pm Cooh John:

Hello djsheilab and sophisticates. Made it for the last half hour.

5:31pm northguineahills:

as noted on an earlier playlist, Geowulf is the most amazing name....

5:32pm Linda Lee:

Tom Wilson! www.producertomwilson.com...

5:32pm michael z:

Tom Wilson was an African American from Waco Texas and head of the Young Republicans at Harvard. Yet there is no documentary about him.

5:32pm SeanG:

digging the geowulf

5:33pm Linda Lee:

enjoyed hearing the 'music factory' radio programs on Irwin's show last year. bits of time in a bottle.

5:35pm northguineahills:

Irwin plays Tom Wilson's radio shows, same guy?

5:35pm Linda Lee:

believe so!

♥ 5:35pm Adrian in London:

@Sheila Yep, I must buy a ticket

5:35pm glenn:

yep, same guy.

5:36pm Brian Cat:

another Tom Wilson fan here. Mothers of Invention, not for thier lyrical content, but for the production and getting Zappa's music out there.

♥ 5:37pm Michael 98145:

was just going to say lotsa Music Factory episodes with Tom Wilson in the Irwin archives ...

5:37pm Linda Lee:

never skip a good gig for class. i have too many regrets in that direction.

5:39pm Linda Lee:

it's shameful!

♥ 5:40pm Adrian in London:

This Nadine track, like their others, IS SOOOOOO GOODDDDD

5:40pm Linda Lee:

i agree. really nice.

5:41pm northguineahills:

@Linda Lee: It's a quantum miracle I made it out of grad school right as I moved to NYC, b/tn djing, teaching, studying, and hitting a good four shows a week (I didn't sleep until my late 20s)

(actually will hit five shows w/ this one tonight, but all I have to do is work these days, but being 41, I'm going to have to sleep all weekend.

5:44pm djsheilab:

northguineahills—she initially went by the name Yumi Arai.

5:45pm djsheilab:

So glad to hear it David from KS!

5:51pm northguineahills:

Thanks Sheila. Still no bell rung. I probably just heard it as a wee lad in Nippon (The Buddhist monk who's kids my mother taught English to, had a deep record collection. I wish I paid more attention to the recs[coolest adult I ever hung out w/])

5:51pm djsheilab:

Listener James + Glenn + Carmichael—She was a fantastic songwriter. Love the thoughtful, comforting lyrics on "Everything Changes."
