	5:02pm bill: they give a grammy to every record that comes out dont they?
	5:04pm ruth: We're back with more! Hi all. I sincerely hope if you're near NYC that you're listening from outside or at least near an open window It's SO gorgeous out.
	🥁 ♥ 5:06pm chresti: Hi David, ruth, and Ridgewood society!
	♥ 5:08pm david w: Hey , bill, participation trophies you think?
	♥ 5:08pm david w: chresti! a society of their own!
	♥ 5:13pm david w: The Melford/Brandis duo had a major presence in the downtown scene in the 80s.
	🥁 ♥ 5:15pm chresti: I'll be listening in the resting chair, been up since very early and hey, there's an asteroid on it's way..
	♥ 5:20pm david w: An asteroid, hmmm. That rates low on my list of global worries this week. But the resting chair sounds good to me.
	5:21pm Dean: I assume the playful child is Jane Ginsburg, now a professor of law at Columbia. Her younger brother, Jim, operates Cedille Records in Chicago, a purveyor of very fine classical recordings.
	♥ 5:23pm david w: Thanks, Dean. Definitley the coolest of families.
	5:25pm Schell: A few voices in there that have since made their way out here to Seattle!
	♥ 5:26pm david w: Early Shelley and early Zeena, just as they began to investigate electronics.
	♥ 5:28pm david w: Prof. Schell! And Seattle had some major input into the NYC downtown scene as well.
	🥁 ♥ 5:36pm WR: Was Esperanza Spalding born in '86?
	♥ 5:37pm david w: That would resonate nicely today, WR. Team?
	5:38pm Schell: '84
	♥ 5:49pm david w: Christian Marclay is invited in, and this little set lost for 34 years!
	🥁 ♥ 5:52pm WR: A fun set, happy it has been found and broadcast.
	5:52pm ruth: This is great D. A re-Discovery for sure.
	♥ 6:03pm Ike: Groovy!
	♥ 6:04pm david w: Hey, Ike. Some wacky 1986 hijinx!
	6:06pm Dean: Wait a second. I get why this collaboration is rare, but why unheard? Was nobody in attendance?
	6:06pm northguineahills: Here, working. Digging!
	♥ 6:07pm david w: Unheard on radio until this fabulous moment.
	♥ 6:11pm david w: ngh, we interrupt this workspace...
	🥁 ♥ 6:13pm WR: North Guinea Hills, i was thinking you would dig that track. Worth a relisten. RE: unpacking who was doing what sound, interesting but at a certain point it is the group results that matter. Those there that day got to experience the creation. Being able to hear, repeatedly if desired, the recording we can relish what was created.
	♥ 6:17pm david w: Thanks, WR. I was also thinking that putting this into the public record, even if some details were lost, was of value. Gives us a chance to examine what happened and where it all went.
	🥁 ♥ 6:19pm WR: My comment is a general truism for any recorded performance but resonated for me when I caught myself torn between deciphering and enjoying the general melee of sounds.
	♥ 6:25pm david w: Here's where they let go.
	🥁 ♥ 6:33pm Jeff Golick: "unheard collaboration" reminds me of a phrase Jonathan Schwartz would use fairly often on his Sinatra programs: "never recorded," he would say, after playing...a recording. Hi.
	6:35pm northguineahills: Always dig Marclay.
	6:36pm northguineahills: Can’t read the musicians on the app
	♥ 6:36pm david w: Jeff! I'm just juggling so many unknowns here, grasping at terms and trying to be fair to the knowns.
	🥁 ♥ 6:37pm Jeff Golick: Well, of course there are known knowns, etc etc. You know the rest. How are ya?
	6:37pm northguineahills: I had to earn a father w/ a little kid, donn’t go near ducks w/ ducklings, they will attack!
	♥ 6:37pm david w: ngh: too much text?
	6:38pm northguineahills: Warn a father... don’t go near the ducks.
	6:39pm northguineahills: Ughhh, warn the father. I’m typing in English and still autocarrot gets me!
	🥁 ♥ 6:39pm Jeff Golick: The built-in app playlist doesn't include the comment field, only song/artist/album.
	6:45pm northguineahills: I’ve been texting in multiple languages, so my phone is confused I tried to do an interview in Mandarin today, unsuccessfully. I only know a dozen or so phrases. My linguistics failed me.
	♥ 6:46pm Ike: "Autocarrot", LOL. Is that an app for rabbits?
	♥ 6:47pm david w: Thanks, Jeff. I'm doing okay. Pretty upset about RBG, not a surprise but stings. And don't look now!
	♥ 6:48pm david w: ngh becomes more interesting week by week, and Ike never misses a cue.
	6:51pm northguineahills: @Ike: it was an autocorrect that word on my phone that just became an autocorrect after some time. So, now I just roll w/ it and spell it intentionally.
	🥁 ♥ 6:51pm Jeff Golick: Stings indeed. It's hard to sense because of incremental shifts, but I think we're all under tremendous daily stress and strain. Cumulative body blows and minor mental breakdowns that leave us (or at least me) in a state somehwere between numb and quivering-like-a-violin-string.
	6:52pm northguineahills: And thanks david and Ruth. Almost done working. Some one told me to get a drink, I’m going to take them up on said advice.
	♥ 6:53pm david w: Thanks, everybody, for walking though this little bit of history with me.
	🥁 ♥ 6:56pm Jeff Golick: Thanks to you, David!
	♥ 6:56pm david w: 7-10pm (ET) : BODEGA POP LIVE with Gary Sullivan : Hit Filmi Geet: Tracks never before played on WFMU, all ripped from Indian CDs found in Brooklyn, the Bronx, Chicago, Iselin, Jackson Heights, Jersey City, and Manhattan. 10-Midnight (ET) : IF YOU LOSE YOUR HORSE with Sam Segal
	🥁 ♥ 6:56pm chresti: Thanks David!
	6:58pm ruth: Bye for now Ridgewoodians see y'all next time.
	🥁 ♥ 7:00pm WR: Thank you david. Laters all.
	7:06pm northguineahills: Just bought a stale donut from a 7-11. It tastes great! My expectations from culinary confectionaries has really dropped!
