WFMU: The Wiggle Room: Playlist from December 3, 2024

Listener comments!
	👻 6:00pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	👻 6:11pm BC Sterrett: Hello Hello
	👻 7:53pm BC Sterrett: Just getting set up...
	👻 7:56pm Austin Rich: I'm excited to hear this California '99 record. I don't know what to expect.
	👻 8:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Sushi Bar (Background Music)" by "Vangelis" I need to pick up that four disc set. I do love that movie, and the soundtrack quite a bit.
	👻 8:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Appopopoulisberg" by "Jimmie Haskell" Okay, I'm in love with this album already. What the what? This is fantastic!
	👻 8:05pm BC Sterrett: ↳ Austin Rich @8:02 I feel like a lot of his extra soundtrack music is coming out in foreign countries since his death during covid.
	👻 8:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ BC Sterrett @8:05 We just started selling records at my bookstore, and thus, we started buying records to sell. The first box had a bunch of Vangelis in it. That felt like a good start to me.
	👻 8:08pm BC Sterrett: I have an odd Vangelis obsession.
	👻 8:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ BC Sterrett @8:08 I came to him late, and largely because I loved "Blade Runner" and realized he did a lot of other music, too. Fortunately, his records were easy to come by for many years, so I have four or five now. But I wish I'd started collecting sooner.
	👻 8:11pm Austin Rich: The weird "Pac-Man-esque" sounds are great!
	👻 8:13pm BC Sterrett: I have a handful of his albums on LP, but because I mainly listen to him while driving, I have most of his work on CD :)
	👻 8:14pm Austin Rich: I'm probably in good company here, but when I hear this soundtrack, I can only be impressed. I'm baffled by people who find this movie (and the soundtrack) merely "so-so." It felt like a revelation to me.
	👻 8:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ BC Sterrett @8:13 That makes sense. I sort of collect every format, but LPs are certainly my preference.
	👻 8:17pm BC Sterrett: It's what Otis taught me about music that is more ambient. CD copies of Eno were his preference, because of where it was listened to.
	👻 8:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" by "Jimmie H... The Band guested on this record? Woah.
	👻 8:23pm Austin Rich: Reading about this "California '99" record is wild. It's like the US has become some sort of hippy paradise... that still somehow has a fascist government. I do appreciate when Sci-Fi and reality start to converge.
	👻 8:24pm BC Sterrett: I didn't know what this record was when I found it many years ago in a musty shed selling off random odds and ends. The cover had no title, just the map.
	👻 8:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ BC Sterrett @8:24 I love stuff like that!
	👻 8:26pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Intro/Prelude" by "Jimmie Haskell" I have a Jimmie Haskell record where he does James Bond themes. For some reason, I assumed it was instrumental rock music. Maybe it's weirder...?
	👻 8:27pm BC Sterrett: I guess you're my only audience tonight. lol
	👻 8:28pm Mr Fab: Hey Ho, BC! Always up for some Jimmy Haskell. He had a long and very interesting career. Making space age pop long way before synthesizers were invented. Like, this crazy early rock ‘n’ roll with bloops and bleeps. And I see his name on a lot of credits for arranging for many big names. But this is definitely a new one on me. Unless maybe you played it before? It sounds a bit familiar.
	👻 8:28pm Austin Rich: ↳ BC Sterrett @8:27 I think we have similar tastes. I tend to appreciate your Wiggle Rooms.
	👻 8:28pm Mr Fab: ↳ BC Sterrett @8:27 Ha, sorry I haven’t commented yet. I’m busy doing laundry right now.
	👻 8:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @8:28 "Music To Fold By" is the Wiggle Room's Tagline.
	8:30pm Imaginos: Ahoy!
	👻 8:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @8:30 Lovely to see you in the chat, Imaginos!
	8:31pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @8:30 And you. Nice to see you
	👻 8:31pm BC Sterrett: ↳ Mr Fab @8:28 I've never played this LP before, nor have I heard it on the air before. It looks however that that Ken and Otis have played the 2nd track though a couple times in the station history.
	👻 8:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @8:28 Okay, you convinced me. I bet his James Bond covers would be plenty cool. I'll finally put on that record.
	👻 8:33pm Mr Fab: Like many people, it was the soundtrack to Carl Sagan’s “Cosmos” tv show that hipped me to Vangelis. So many people were writing into PBS asking what is that music?! that they finally put out a soundtrack album. Which I got for Christmas for one year. And yes, you could get his albums very cheap. Every record store’s “electronic music“ section they were there, I grabbed a few of those $.99 beauties. (Except for his weirdo prog band Aphrodite’s Child and their Satanic album “666.” I had to spend like REAL money for that one.
	👻 8:34pm BC Sterrett: ↳ Austin Rich @8:28 Thanks Austin! I love your shows as well :)
	👻 8:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @8:33 That Cosmos soundtrack is so good. I have a copy, too. I've actually been re-watching the original show, and the music is SO excellent.
	👻 8:36pm BC Sterrett: What turned me onto Vangelis was a friend in the mid-90's who played me his accordion solo in the middle of a track on his "The City" CD. He had borrowed it from the library. I had to borrow it as well.
	👻 8:40pm BC Sterrett: My recent obsession with Vangelis came from finding his music over and over in Chinese vampire and black magic films. lol
	👻 8:40pm Mr Fab: ↳ BC Sterrett @8:36 That’s amazing! A man so famous for being an electronic music pioneer and it was his ACCORDION playing that made you a fan! my daughter is asking for an accordion for Christmas. And an Omnicord. Yep, that’s my kid all right.
	👻 8:40pm Mr Fab: That’s amazing! A man so famous for being an electronic music pioneer and it was his ACCORDION playing that made you a fan! my daughter is asking for an accordion for Christmas. And an Omnicord. Yep, that’s my kid all right.
	👻 8:41pm WR: Hello BC Sterrett and folks. Have been listening but work keeping me focused elsewhere. Thanks for the interesting wiggle episode.
	👻 8:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @8:40 Oooo! I want an Omnicord, too! Those Darn Accordions are heavy. Make sure they start working out in parallel to playing that beast.
	👻 8:42pm BC Sterrett: Thanks WR :)
	8:42pm Imaginos: We got snowed on today
	👻 8:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @8:42 Ooooo, very cool! I love snow. We will probably not get any, based on our elevation. I'm jealous! Do you like snow?
	8:44pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @8:42 Depends on where it is. On the lawns a NH d trees, yes. On the sidewalk, not so much
	👻 8:44pm BC Sterrett: oops, a skip...
	8:45pm Imaginos: ↳ Song: "California Fairy Tale" by "Jimmie Haskell" Interesting
	👻 8:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ BC Sterrett @8:44 That's how you know it's live.
	👻 8:49pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Qu'ran" by "Brian Eno and David Byrne" This is Brian Eno and David Byrne, not Vangelis. Itwas actually left off later pressings of the Eno/Byrne album, because Muslims protested the use of chanting from the Quran sampled in the music.
	👻 8:49pm BC Sterrett: OOoh! let me change that now :)
	👻 8:54pm Austin Rich: Thanks again BC! As usual, a pleasure.
	8:56pm Imaginos: Hope your parents had a safe flight
	👻 8:56pm WR: Thank you!
