WFMU: Strength Through Failure with Fabio: Playlist from January 16, 2014

Listener comments!
	3:06pm chocolate monk: perfect way to start my weekly thursday 8pm wonk off,, love this track.
	3:07pm Sem Chumbo: Pipeline, mainline...whatever. I'm up for failure any old how. Hiya, Fabio.
	3:09pm TDK60: This Thursday is a failure.
	3:11pm JakeGould: How is Thursday a failure?
	3:12pm DCE: but TDK tapes never fail! Hi Fabio, friends.
	3:12pm DCE: is that Uriah Heep mixed in there? "Life...Life..."
	3:13pm JakeGould: Oh, never mind ((<-- Emily Littela (<-- Ancient reference)) <-- Irony!)
	👻 3:17pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Peace be with you.
	3:18pm JakeGould: Peas be with soup.
	3:19pm chocolate monk: DCE,, i aint sure if its Uriah Heep,, i always thought it was this band Dawn Davenport that appear on the Fug Gum 2 compilation.. but now you mention it...
	👻 3:19pm Rev. Turnip Druid: It was indeed a day for soup. ...so says the vegetable clergyman with a dewlap full of yellow lentils.
	3:21pm TDK60: My day is a failure so I'm relaxing with the 'way out' sounds here on Strength Through Failure.
	3:22pm JakeGould: I took a sick day today because I did.
	3:23pm chocolate monk: every day is a day for soup!
	👻 3:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Lentils are king of the world! also: Digging this sound!
	3:25pm JakeGould: I had soup for breakfast because I was so burned out this sick day is just a “me” day.
	3:26pm Yair yona: Hi Fabio, good evening everyone
	3:26pm JakeGould: Thai Sweet Potato. Should do that more often.
	3:27pm DCE: that does sound interesting...hello, Yair!
	3:27pm dale: i made a big crockpot of lentil soup yesterday. this winter has been bean soup overload for me.
	3:28pm DCE: I made lentil soup a few weeks ago...by day three I was just non-stop flatulence. By day 5, the situation had corrected itself.
	3:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I don't eat animals & I think lentils are yummy & nutritious...but for some reason my tummy doesn't always agree; the iron ? I don't mind beans & their side-effects generally...
	3:29pm DCE: by day 7, it had reversed itself
	3:30pm dale: usually do bobs redmill 16 bean mix and gas has not been a problem. switched to lentil and last night i was blowing the covers off the bed
	👻 3:31pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Never had issues with lentils. I dig 'em like mad. With rice it's a complete protein, so as a fellow non-chewer-uponer-of-animals, it's a non-flatulent win-win.
	3:31pm dale: should probably save this topic for clays comments board
	3:32pm Dean: I'm thinking the Mad magazine flexi-disk 45" of "It's a Gas" is fitting right about now.
	3:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: beans + grain =s complete protein is the word (corn works) - need not even eat simultaneously I'm told...
	3:33pm Mike East: we have lentils and rice every other week. The other week is black beans and rice. I'm in a pretty consistent state of moderate flatulence all the time.
	3:33pm dale: also made a loaf of whole wheat bread in the bread machine for sopping. i try to not eat much bread but it was yummy
	3:34pm InBrkly: Lentils don't like me either.
	3:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Black beans are what oats eat when they need fiber.
	3:34pm DCE: you guys ain't afraid of the arsenic factor in the rice? I understand it's fairly serious...I've cut out brown rice, and white rice really isn't worth eating...
	3:35pm Jedd XperIence: Listening in real time my friend, whooop!
	3:36pm Mike East: unaware, DCE. do you have a link to an article that will scare me out of eating rice?
	👻 3:36pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Indian basmati is the only rice i'll touch anymore. No idea if it's poisonous or anything, but it's a groove.
	3:36pm djelrock: Ya Fabio! Buona Sera. My cerebrum is prepared to receive your musical mind altering emanating choices.
	3:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bronwyn says green tea has lead. I haven't Searched about it...Arsenic you say...it's not in the manufacturing/processing ??...
	3:38pm DCE: shit...I hate to spoil what was once a go-to staple...just google it, it's all over the place. Even organics. It's more in the way it's grown than in processing.
	3:38pm davis: didnt the ondes martineu work by moving a metal ring side to side over volcanic rock?
	3:38pm dale: oh no - russell johnson, the professor form gilligans island died.
	3:39pm TDK60: The Ondes Martinot was used on the Lawrence of Arabia soundtrack. Along with orchestra. 1962?
	3:39pm DCE: but you can distract yourself by looking at some old photos of the vinyl manufacturing process tinyurl.com...
	3:40pm longtime listener: Shoe size?
	3:40pm InBrkly: If it is named after the Bronx River, maybe over time it just became the shortened form of saying "from the bronx river".
	3:41pm muwa: The Bronx is a family name
	3:42pm Mike East: Actually Bronck is the family name. The Bronx name came from referring to Bronck's river, I believe.
	3:43pm Santos L Halper: Learned about the ondes martenot on an FMU show last year I think. Made me go out and buy some Messaien (Turangalila Symphony). Cool stuff
	3:44pm Santos L Halper: No, not FMU but an interview w Johnny greenwood in NYT ...
	3:47pm muwa: Oh, well. You are right. But only apparently. http://tinyurl.com/k9tpms7
	3:47pm TDK60: Is this Fripp & Eno?
	👻 3:48pm Rev. Turnip Druid: TDK60: Heldon, methinks.
	3:50pm DCE: that's gotta be Fripp, just not sure which incarnation
	👻 3:50pm Rev. Turnip Druid: well shut mah face, it's those other blokes.
	3:50pm Chris from DC: I thought it was Fripp & Eno. Evening clicky starred.
	3:53pm TDK60: Yeah, interesting album photo, F. & E. sitting in a room full of mirrors.
	3:54pm Fern: I just realized this is the reversed version. This and the half-speed version are revelations.
	👻 3:55pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Been a Pinhas fan since forever, but don't know squat about this (more famous) duo. I suppose the everpresent Fripp references folks use when describing Pinhas make sense now...?
	👻 3:56pm Rev. Turnip Druid: In any case, great stuff.
	3:56pm Cheri Pi: I approve these messages
	3:57pm longtime listener: Shortwave numbers station
	👻 3:57pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Are you 'diversified' now, CP?
	3:58pm Mike East: Well, shit. Thanks for ruining the rice party, DCE. My wife was gonna make rice balls next week, too.
	3:58pm longtime listener: I searched the whole shortwave spectrum and could not find one numbers station
	4:00pm DCE: yeah, Mike E, I'm sorry, but better to know than to continue poisoning yourself, I always say
	4:00pm Chris from DC: Rev, start with No Pussyfooting. The half-speed and reversed bonus disc versions are indeed special. Don't know if there's a vinyl reissue?
	4:01pm Cheri Pi: Damn skiipy I am & ready to rumble too, those diversifying workshops get me all agitated and wanting to fight the powers that be.
	4:02pm Cheri Pi: Heat!
	👻 4:03pm Rev. Turnip Druid: We did the "behave yourself" sessions over here about a month ago, and all it did was inspire a new wave of hostile-work-environment jokes. Saucy!
	4:03pm SeanG: it's been a long day!
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wondering now if it's just in the nature of rice & what it absorbs or converts - or depends also on where it's grown & what it's fed...what the quantity is compared to, say, apple juice...this is insufficient data ...sound however is kewl...
	4:07pm Cheri Pi: Being the group that we are, we have been emboldened to make A LOT of work for our HR department over the next year or so, a sport around here.
	👻 4:09pm Rev. Turnip Druid: size 9 represent! [quivers out some damned strange foot-related gang-sign]
	4:09pm chocolate monk: timeless record!!!!!! still sounds so fresh!!
	4:09pm dale: i find the european sizing more accurate - 42 wide here
	4:10pm Cheri Pi: That record never sounds the same 2x, I discover something new whenever I hear it.
	4:10pm InBrkly: Fall of Saigon still gets heavy rotation in my playlists.
	👻 4:10pm Ken From Hyde Park: Save up all your failures for Thursday afternoons...that's my motto.
	4:10pm steve: woo hoo home in time for some failure
	4:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 8.5 ...I'll never be the Rev you are...
	4:15pm Cecile: you played flower breath piece before right?
	4:15pm John Kramer: Not to be a d*** but don't you think it's pronounced De-KAY-zhia? Like decay, fantasia, etc. Wish I could see it. GREAT show, Fabio.
	4:18pm sibeliuss: I can't believe Fabio liked American Hustle! Such complete trash
	4:19pm chocolate monk: nostalgia is a weapon!
	4:20pm fleep: Nice Geese!
	4:25pm Fabio: American Hustle is an excellent Hollywood movie. Really well done and acted. See it again.
	4:28pm chocolate monk: no nomination for The Hobbit?
	4:31pm fleep: 3 for Hobbit, sound mixing, sound editing, and visual effects
	4:31pm Mike East: I've been dying to see American Hustle. My wife and I were gonna take turns going because we don't know any babysitters. Anyone wanna babysit my kids?
	4:32pm Cecile: well, don't talk to me about movies. Gonna catch Anchorman II tomorrow.
	4:32pm MenfussMike: one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs
	4:32pm Cheri Pi: Carlton Melton for the clicky.
	4:33pm Santos L Halper: I'm in.
	4:33pm DCE: email me the kids, Mike, I'll watch em for a night
	4:33pm Chris from DC: Really need to get more into Carlton Melton. Everything I've heard has been spot on.
	4:33pm DCE: I think by 10pm I'll be seriously IN
	4:34pm RMD: Greetings. Never been here before, very good things happening indeed.
	4:34pm Rory: Jammin!
	4:34pm DCE: ah, welcome, RMD, your world just got that much better!
	4:34pm fleep: Sixth star for Melton.
	4:34pm Mike East: @Cecile - surprised you haven't caught that yet...seems like your type of movie. btw, I have depicable me2 waiting for me at home tonight. @DCE - I appreciate it. Just don't give them any rice.
	4:35pm Stanley: This is amazing stuff Wheeeeeeeoooooooo
	4:35pm MenfussMike: I did not like American Hustle....I did not dislike it either.
	4:36pm glenn: i figured i should finally watch the first anchorman, so i streamed it last night. i honestly don't get the appeal, other than christina applegate.
	4:36pm chocolate monk: I aint ever seen the Hobbit or any of the prior flicks. I saw Polanskis "The Tenant" for the first time a couple of nights ago,, that was a good movie.
	4:36pm KP: Carlton Melton
	4:36pm DCE: I haven't even heard of the movie
	4:37pm DCE: I mean American Hustle
	4:37pm kirk from beer city usa: fabion meltbrain
	4:38pm chocolate monk: I thought "12 Years A Slave" was really good, but had to stop watching "Shame" 20 or so minutes in last night.. might try again,, worth it?? Still haven't seen McQueens first about Bobby Sands..
	4:39pm Donald Flake: Hi Fabio. Just curious to know if you ever lived/went to record stores in Birmingham. I think I may have got you mistaken with another DJ if not.
	4:40pm DCE: still trying to catch up on 100 movies I've DVR'd since the summer...I'm watching stuff from August now.
	4:40pm Mike East: @chocolate monk - I thought Shame was worth it, but definitely liked Hunger better. Even if you don't make it through Shame, check that one out.
	4:41pm sdfjones: For some reason I'd like to see an exploding house right about now.
	4:41pm Cheri Pi: Fuck. yes.
	4:42pm Fabio: Never Been to Birmingham
	4:42pm KP: A big house
	4:42pm DCE: Michaelangelo Antonionionionionioohnoohnoohno!
	4:43pm Barrie: I always think of the slow-mo raw chicken, from the exploding fridge at the end of Zabriskie point, when Waters starts screaming.
	4:43pm DCE: there goes the fridge
	4:44pm InBrkly: American Hustle reminded me of A Quiet Man. The story seemed secondary to the examination of the aesthetic of an era.
	4:44pm Night Al: Nice!
	4:45pm Donald Flake: okay. thanks.
	4:45pm Cecile: glenn, it is better with beer. Also, it's just a big heaping helping of stupid, which I can dig. It's kind of a polarizing movie.
	4:45pm InBrkly: or ugliness. take your pick.
	4:45pm MenfussMike: I agree InBrkly. Too much 70's chic and it's conclusion was a bit short.
	4:49pm Cecile: I'm just amazing that ABSCAM was so long ago.
	4:50pm glenn: apparently philadelphia has a notorious swiss cheese pervert. shouldn't they have a notorious cream cheese pervert? nnews.nationalpost.com...
	4:50pm glenn: i do love christina applegate, though.
	4:51pm Cecile: She is luminous in that movie, which is saying something.
	4:51pm InBrkly: I didnt think it was a bad movie--I just thought it was more about the look. If it had better pacing I would have liked it a lot more. The acting was very good though! Hardly recognized Bale.
	4:52pm common: it's true about the swiss cheese dude. i'm in philthy. proud.
	4:53pm glenn: he looks exactly like toronto's mayor mccrackypants.
	4:53pm Cecile: Oh, come on, "Fare thee well, Baxter. You will always be a friend to the bears" didn't get you?
	4:54pm Cecile: heheheehehehehehehehehehehehehehhehehehehhehehehehehe
	4:54pm Cecile: I love that stupid movie.
	4:54pm common: glenn: are they one and the same? that's a lot of commuting.
	4:56pm Cecile: 60 percent of the time it works all of the time!
	4:56pm fleep: Swiss is a good choice. Cheddar would be too crumbly and brie would be too soft.
	4:56pm glenn: i'm pretty sure a self admitted crack smoker won't be allowed across the border, but you never know.
	4:57pm Cecile: Flavor Flav seemed to be able to travel the world pretty freely in his day.
	5:00pm Ike: I finally saw Anchorman 1 recently too. Better than I was expecting, but C. Applegate was kind of wasted. As with so many other recent comedies, the women get stuck in no-fun roles as disapproving finger-waggers and only the men get to have fun.
	5:01pm kirk from beer city usa: is there a program on?
	5:02pm Cecile: I still thought she was great, Ike. I liked that she was the voice of reason. Also, she really beat the crap out of Ron Burgundy with that typewriter.
	5:03pm TDK60: Wasn't aware of the reversed, slowed No Pussyfooting tracks by Fripp & Eno!
	5:04pm Mike East: yes, Fabio, I am listening. and enjoying. I clicked my first clicky star in a very long time today.
	5:04pm InBrkly: Fabio, much like alcohol, your musical selection simply amplifies ones mood. If you are already tranquel, you will be more so. If you are a chatty cathy....
	5:04pm Cecile: and she gets some of the funniest lines in the movie.
	5:05pm 'And III'm Earrl Camembert': Flloyd Robertson sure didn't have bags o' laughs with Earl Camembert. Ha.
	5:05pm Cecile: Fabio, your music is manna for those of us with divided attention.
	5:05pm Ike: If this is radio furniture, then it's the most exquisite Duchamp-esque furniture ever, mangled wooden chairs bundled inside multicolored metal extrusions hanging upside-down off the walls and ceilings.
	5:05pm TDK60: Don't worry Fabio -- for me this is a true music appreciation class.
	5:06pm Cecile: Mike East, I think you will like DM2 very much.
	5:07pm Sandy in Houston: Keith Rowe came to town a year or so ago and brought a bunch of Scratch Orchestra pieces that we performed & it was fun.
	5:07pm Philthy woman: Common, maybe you are right! Too much time in a car commuting makes people do strange things. Mayhaps the swiss cheese started as a way to not have to make rest stops and stay 'decent' while having convenient holes to let the fluids out,
	5:07pm Night Al: Radio furniture? ... This couch smells funny.
	5:07pm Cecile: hey, sandy!
	5:07pm Philthy woman: ...and then he liked it too much...
	5:08pm Night Al: This would make excellent druid processional music.
	5:09pm dale: do you think the cheese masturbators lawyer will be able to kraft a defense?
	5:09pm TDK60: Almost forgot! I have a very old, home-taped cassette of Floyd's 'Ummagumma', very muffled. But the tape got tangled and upside-down so it plays backwards!
	5:11pm Sandy in Houston: Hi Cecile!
	5:11pm Fabio: @ Dale: Really?
	5:11pm earrie: Oh, dale! For singles, undoubtedly, yes
	5:11pm Santos L Halper: Felicitations! Enjoying Fabio's Floyd-fest and Frequency Furniture Forum Freakout Fun! Meant to post this back when it was published. You’ve probably seen it, but thought the board might also enjoy: opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com...
	5:11pm !.!: seem like my bou favbio ALWAYS on....!!!!!! 'n' i like it ;)
	👻 5:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Sorry I'm late. Was busy processionalizing...
	5:13pm Cecile: SLH, people who don't fail very much seem to like writing articles about failure.
	5:14pm chocolate monk: TDK60.. send it to Fabio, he would jam it,, he loves a bit of Gen ken 8-Track magic,, but then, who doesn't???
	5:14pm TDK60: This Fabio Failure is truly Felicitous.
	5:17pm dale: can't be the worst joke on the topic fabio.
	5:19pm Night Al: If Greg or Ian chance to reach Nirvana are irrelevant, why sing them? Does anybody get it?
	5:21pm david_: this cornelius cardew is purdy.
	5:23pm TDK60: @ Chocolate Monk: I could tape him a cassette of it...it would be more muffled too.
	5:23pm Ike: If this show were furniture, it would look like this: www.artsjournal.com...
	5:24pm david_: high-speed dubbing!
	5:24pm chocolate monk: more muffle.
	5:24pm YETI BOB: Fabio: I've been meaning to learn more about Cardew. Thanks for the opportunity!
	5:25pm Cecile: Ike, there aren't enough beer bottles or Luna bar wrappers strewn around.
	5:26pm Sem Chumbo: @Ike: it works for me.
	5:30pm YETI BOB: Ike: That's not FURNITURE, it's ART. Looks like a John Chamberlain on the left, and a Jean Tingueley on the right.
	5:30pm david_: wow, Alog is quite prolific.
	5:31pm YETI BOB: @Ike: also of interest: John Chamberlain's son Jesse drummed for the Red Krayola in the 80's.
	5:32pm Cecile: DAMN!
	5:32pm TDK60: Beefheart and MLK birthdays.
	5:33pm david_: Captain Beefheart and MLK share the same birth date... who knew?!
	5:33pm Xray Gingham: More texture?
	5:33pm MenfussMike: i LOVE beefheart....but I HATE Trout Mask Replica.....I think I'm weird
	5:33pm Ike: @YB@5:30, my point exactly. But if you insist on actual furniture, maybe you'd prefer: www.oddee.com...
	5:33pm dale: beefheart had a dream
	5:34pm david_: I owe you a Coke, TDK60.
	5:34pm TDK60: Who played the Theremin? Or was that synth? Ry Cooder was likely on electric geetar.
	5:35pm Cecile: MM, I like it, but not like the other ones. I actually was supposed to name one of my influences in class yesterday, and Beefheart was #1. And now i know it was his birthday, that makes it cooler.
	5:35pm dale: i never got into him, but stuff i hear here i like. fmu is the great curator!
	5:36pm YETI BOB: @Ike: www.berlinartlink.com...
	5:37pm bobdoesthings: I think I like this version more than the album version...
	5:37pm Cecile: Fab, can you played Owed t'Alex?
	5:38pm Bill F.: Today's my birthday, Fabio, no joke. How 'bout one of those jams from the Mirror Man Sessions? It's OK if the answer is no!!!
	5:40pm Xray Gingham: Stop. Mike doesn't like.
	5:41pm Fredericks: MenfussMike, I, too, am a Beefheart fan who has little time for Trout Mask. Like the cover and The Blimp (which I understand is actually the Mothers not the Magic Band backing the Captain.)
	5:42pm MenfussMike: Hehehe
	5:42pm Night Al: We lost 2 supporting TV actors today .... Dave Madden -- who played "The Partridge Family's" aggravated band manager on the 1970s TV show -- has died after a long illness at age 82 ... TMZ has learned. Madden played Reuben Kincaid on the show ... who was often bedeviled by the antics of the Partridge kids, particularly Danny, played by Danny Bonaduce. Dave's former agent tells TMZ ... he died of congestive heart and kidney failure early this morning. Madden also appeared on another popular 70s TV show, "Laugh-In" and was the author of a couple books, including a book of memoirs published in 2007. We're told Madden died in Florida ... where he lived with his wife. ALSO... The actor who played the Professor in "Gilligan's Island" has died ... TMZ has learned. Russell Johnson, who played Professor Roy Hinkley, died of natural causes at his home in Washington. Dawn Wells, who played Mary Ann, just posted on Facebook, "My 2 favorite people are now gone. The professor past (sic) away this morning. My heart is broken." The other person who died is Bob Denver, who played Gilligan. He died in 2005. Johnson was on the show from 1964 to 1967. Johnson was not in the original opening of the show. He and Mary Ann were referred to as "The rest." But Denver insisted that they be included and that happened later. Wells went on: "Russell was a true gentleman, a good father, a great friend, and 'the rest.'" Johnson was married -- this was his third wife. He passed away in hospice, surrounded by his wife and 2 kids. Johnson was 89. The only surviving members of the original cast are Mary Ann and Ginger, played by Tina Louise.
	5:43pm TDK60: Kandy Korn is sorta psych meets post-punk? A precursor?
	5:44pm Fredericks: Oh, and "Dachau Blues".
	5:44pm kirk from beer city usa: LOVE this song, thanks Fabio
	5:44pm MenfussMike: Fredericks, I am glad I am not the only one. I would much rather hear Safe As Milk, Spotlight, Ice Cream for Crow...really any other. Trout Mask is my least favorite Beefheart, yet it seems as it is THE ONE in the public eye.
	5:45pm Xray Gingham: Hahaha
	5:45pm ReCalcitrant: Another non-Trout Mask fan. Big fan of Doc at the Radar Station and Shiny Beast/Bat Chain Puller and Safe as Milk.
	5:46pm chocolate monk: its a percurosr straddler... a rare but fine breed. i reckon the captain musta had some genius chafing for sure.
	5:47pm dale: yeah see, this beefheart doesn't cut it for me.
	5:47pm Cecile: Love any iteration of Bat Chain Puller. Also, Clear Spot.
	5:47pm TDK60: Ella Guru is great. Scary, funny, powerful.
	5:47pm Fredericks: I have a soft spot for Clear Spot.
	5:48pm MenfussMike: Clear Spot is a diamond!
	5:48pm Night Al: On this day in 1980 - Paul McCartney was jailed in Tokyo for possession of a half pound of marijuana. He spent ten days behind bars before being kicked-out of the country by Japanese authorities. The remainder of his tour was canceled.
	5:48pm MenfussMike: Regardless, thank you Fabio and more importantly, thank you Don and his band
	5:48pm TDK60: One vote for T.M.R.
	5:49pm nic: i didn't like any of beefheart
	5:49pm Rich in Washington: I go back and forth on TMR often. Currently, I am rather fond of certain songs on it.
	5:50pm Night Al: Not a good start Clay...
	5:50pm TDK60: Burnt Weeny Sandwich
	5:51pm chocolate monk: Beefheart. he done those two real DUDS! but apart from that, he's the shit.
	5:51pm david_: Adrian Belew?
	5:51pm MenfussMike: Beefheart > Zappa
	5:51pm Night Al: Mr Kincaid and the Professor died today.
	5:51pm Rich in Washington: There was a period where I read Harkleroad/Rollo's book Lunar Notes and I had a hard time liking Don Van Vliet or his music for a while.
	5:52pm chocolate monk: let Clay know it was Biff Byford of saxons birthday yesterday... get ye arse to the library!!
	5:52pm MenfussMike: Good read, Rich?
	5:52pm david_: Clay doesn't know his own strength.
	5:52pm steve: early and instrumental Zappa are great, Joe's Garage and the pop/rock stuff where he tries to be funny not so much
	5:52pm Scott: I have this bumper sticker, it's a baby's face with Safe As Milk printed next to it. I have it on my office wall. I must have gotten it back in the 1970s, 'cause I found it with some old junk, but I have no idea where I got it. I was into Zappa but never Beefheart, and had no idea that Capt. Beefheart had an album with that name until a few years ago. A mystery I guess.
	5:52pm MenfussMike: Get yer Wheels of Steel to the library....wearing Denim and Leather.
	5:53pm dale: i had the hustler with dale bozzio. dirty girl.
	5:53pm Cecile: Rich, I have avoided reading more about Don because I know he was a hard taskmaster.
	5:54pm glenn: oh come on. ringo's great.
	5:54pm Nellie: Yay....looked forward to this all day!
	5:55pm glenn: condition is micky newbury.
	5:56pm dale: del shannon further adventures of j alfred prufrock - aces!
	5:56pm Bill F.: Yeah, but Walsh.
	5:57pm dale: oh, meant charles westover. was j alfred prufrock on the flintstones? or was that alfred brickrock? clay gets me confused
	5:58pm Cecile: Telma Hopkins from Dawn was a busy character actress for a while.
	5:58pm Cubicle Carl: Dawn was absorbed into Tony Orlando's mustache.
	5:58pm Rich in Washington: @Cecile: Probably your best bet. I know with me, I don't like reading artist bios much. I don't like to know that much about an artist. Curiousity has killed that cat for me.
	5:58pm chocolate monk: save the story for another time.... this chemistry is too good tonight!! just this listing bands aLL NIGHT!!
	5:59pm johnforz: i'm surprised fab doesn't like King Crimson at all
	5:59pm dale: jazz cigarettes!
	6:00pm Cecile: I usually like artist bios, but I don't think knowing more about Beefheart matters.
	6:01pm Santos L Halper: Other planes of Clay
	10:35am Fabio: I did not say i didn't like King crimson. on The contrary, i do indeed like them...

Listener comments!
	3:06pm chocolate monk: perfect way to start my weekly thursday 8pm wonk off,, love this track.
	3:07pm Sem Chumbo: Pipeline, mainline...whatever. I'm up for failure any old how. Hiya, Fabio.
	3:09pm TDK60: This Thursday is a failure.
	3:11pm JakeGould: How is Thursday a failure?
	3:12pm DCE: but TDK tapes never fail! Hi Fabio, friends.
	3:12pm DCE: is that Uriah Heep mixed in there? "Life...Life..."
	3:13pm JakeGould: Oh, never mind ((<-- Emily Littela (<-- Ancient reference)) <-- Irony!)
	👻 3:17pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Peace be with you.
	3:18pm JakeGould: Peas be with soup.
	3:19pm chocolate monk: DCE,, i aint sure if its Uriah Heep,, i always thought it was this band Dawn Davenport that appear on the Fug Gum 2 compilation.. but now you mention it...
	👻 3:19pm Rev. Turnip Druid: It was indeed a day for soup. ...so says the vegetable clergyman with a dewlap full of yellow lentils.
	3:21pm TDK60: My day is a failure so I'm relaxing with the 'way out' sounds here on Strength Through Failure.
	3:22pm JakeGould: I took a sick day today because I did.
	3:23pm chocolate monk: every day is a day for soup!
	👻 3:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Lentils are king of the world! also: Digging this sound!
	3:25pm JakeGould: I had soup for breakfast because I was so burned out this sick day is just a “me” day.
	3:26pm Yair yona: Hi Fabio, good evening everyone
	3:26pm JakeGould: Thai Sweet Potato. Should do that more often.
	3:27pm DCE: that does sound interesting...hello, Yair!
	3:27pm dale: i made a big crockpot of lentil soup yesterday. this winter has been bean soup overload for me.
	3:28pm DCE: I made lentil soup a few weeks ago...by day three I was just non-stop flatulence. By day 5, the situation had corrected itself.
	3:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I don't eat animals & I think lentils are yummy & nutritious...but for some reason my tummy doesn't always agree; the iron ? I don't mind beans & their side-effects generally...
	3:29pm DCE: by day 7, it had reversed itself
	3:30pm dale: usually do bobs redmill 16 bean mix and gas has not been a problem. switched to lentil and last night i was blowing the covers off the bed
	👻 3:31pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Never had issues with lentils. I dig 'em like mad. With rice it's a complete protein, so as a fellow non-chewer-uponer-of-animals, it's a non-flatulent win-win.
	3:31pm dale: should probably save this topic for clays comments board
	3:32pm Dean: I'm thinking the Mad magazine flexi-disk 45" of "It's a Gas" is fitting right about now.
	3:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: beans + grain =s complete protein is the word (corn works) - need not even eat simultaneously I'm told...
	3:33pm Mike East: we have lentils and rice every other week. The other week is black beans and rice. I'm in a pretty consistent state of moderate flatulence all the time.
	3:33pm dale: also made a loaf of whole wheat bread in the bread machine for sopping. i try to not eat much bread but it was yummy
	3:34pm InBrkly: Lentils don't like me either.
	3:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Black beans are what oats eat when they need fiber.
	3:34pm DCE: you guys ain't afraid of the arsenic factor in the rice? I understand it's fairly serious...I've cut out brown rice, and white rice really isn't worth eating...
	3:35pm Jedd XperIence: Listening in real time my friend, whooop!
	3:36pm Mike East: unaware, DCE. do you have a link to an article that will scare me out of eating rice?
	👻 3:36pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Indian basmati is the only rice i'll touch anymore. No idea if it's poisonous or anything, but it's a groove.
	3:36pm djelrock: Ya Fabio! Buona Sera. My cerebrum is prepared to receive your musical mind altering emanating choices.
	3:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bronwyn says green tea has lead. I haven't Searched about it...Arsenic you say...it's not in the manufacturing/processing ??...
	3:38pm DCE: shit...I hate to spoil what was once a go-to staple...just google it, it's all over the place. Even organics. It's more in the way it's grown than in processing.
	3:38pm davis: didnt the ondes martineu work by moving a metal ring side to side over volcanic rock?
	3:38pm dale: oh no - russell johnson, the professor form gilligans island died.
	3:39pm TDK60: The Ondes Martinot was used on the Lawrence of Arabia soundtrack. Along with orchestra. 1962?
	3:39pm DCE: but you can distract yourself by looking at some old photos of the vinyl manufacturing process tinyurl.com...
	3:40pm longtime listener: Shoe size?
	3:40pm InBrkly: If it is named after the Bronx River, maybe over time it just became the shortened form of saying "from the bronx river".
	3:41pm muwa: The Bronx is a family name
	3:42pm Mike East: Actually Bronck is the family name. The Bronx name came from referring to Bronck's river, I believe.
	3:43pm Santos L Halper: Learned about the ondes martenot on an FMU show last year I think. Made me go out and buy some Messaien (Turangalila Symphony). Cool stuff
	3:44pm Santos L Halper: No, not FMU but an interview w Johnny greenwood in NYT ...
	3:47pm muwa: Oh, well. You are right. But only apparently. http://tinyurl.com/k9tpms7
	3:47pm TDK60: Is this Fripp & Eno?
	👻 3:48pm Rev. Turnip Druid: TDK60: Heldon, methinks.
	3:50pm DCE: that's gotta be Fripp, just not sure which incarnation
	👻 3:50pm Rev. Turnip Druid: well shut mah face, it's those other blokes.
	3:50pm Chris from DC: I thought it was Fripp & Eno. Evening clicky starred.
	3:53pm TDK60: Yeah, interesting album photo, F. & E. sitting in a room full of mirrors.
	3:54pm Fern: I just realized this is the reversed version. This and the half-speed version are revelations.
	👻 3:55pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Been a Pinhas fan since forever, but don't know squat about this (more famous) duo. I suppose the everpresent Fripp references folks use when describing Pinhas make sense now...?
	👻 3:56pm Rev. Turnip Druid: In any case, great stuff.
	3:56pm Cheri Pi: I approve these messages
	3:57pm longtime listener: Shortwave numbers station
	👻 3:57pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Are you 'diversified' now, CP?
	3:58pm Mike East: Well, shit. Thanks for ruining the rice party, DCE. My wife was gonna make rice balls next week, too.
	3:58pm longtime listener: I searched the whole shortwave spectrum and could not find one numbers station
	4:00pm DCE: yeah, Mike E, I'm sorry, but better to know than to continue poisoning yourself, I always say
	4:00pm Chris from DC: Rev, start with No Pussyfooting. The half-speed and reversed bonus disc versions are indeed special. Don't know if there's a vinyl reissue?
	4:01pm Cheri Pi: Damn skiipy I am & ready to rumble too, those diversifying workshops get me all agitated and wanting to fight the powers that be.
	4:02pm Cheri Pi: Heat!
	👻 4:03pm Rev. Turnip Druid: We did the "behave yourself" sessions over here about a month ago, and all it did was inspire a new wave of hostile-work-environment jokes. Saucy!
	4:03pm SeanG: it's been a long day!
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wondering now if it's just in the nature of rice & what it absorbs or converts - or depends also on where it's grown & what it's fed...what the quantity is compared to, say, apple juice...this is insufficient data ...sound however is kewl...
	4:07pm Cheri Pi: Being the group that we are, we have been emboldened to make A LOT of work for our HR department over the next year or so, a sport around here.
	👻 4:09pm Rev. Turnip Druid: size 9 represent! [quivers out some damned strange foot-related gang-sign]
	4:09pm chocolate monk: timeless record!!!!!! still sounds so fresh!!
	4:09pm dale: i find the european sizing more accurate - 42 wide here
	4:10pm Cheri Pi: That record never sounds the same 2x, I discover something new whenever I hear it.
	4:10pm InBrkly: Fall of Saigon still gets heavy rotation in my playlists.
	👻 4:10pm Ken From Hyde Park: Save up all your failures for Thursday afternoons...that's my motto.
	4:10pm steve: woo hoo home in time for some failure
	4:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 8.5 ...I'll never be the Rev you are...
	4:15pm Cecile: you played flower breath piece before right?
	4:15pm John Kramer: Not to be a d*** but don't you think it's pronounced De-KAY-zhia? Like decay, fantasia, etc. Wish I could see it. GREAT show, Fabio.
	4:18pm sibeliuss: I can't believe Fabio liked American Hustle! Such complete trash
	4:19pm chocolate monk: nostalgia is a weapon!
	4:20pm fleep: Nice Geese!
	4:25pm Fabio: American Hustle is an excellent Hollywood movie. Really well done and acted. See it again.
	4:28pm chocolate monk: no nomination for The Hobbit?
	4:31pm fleep: 3 for Hobbit, sound mixing, sound editing, and visual effects
	4:31pm Mike East: I've been dying to see American Hustle. My wife and I were gonna take turns going because we don't know any babysitters. Anyone wanna babysit my kids?
	4:32pm Cecile: well, don't talk to me about movies. Gonna catch Anchorman II tomorrow.
	4:32pm MenfussMike: one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs
	4:32pm Cheri Pi: Carlton Melton for the clicky.
	4:33pm Santos L Halper: I'm in.
	4:33pm DCE: email me the kids, Mike, I'll watch em for a night
	4:33pm Chris from DC: Really need to get more into Carlton Melton. Everything I've heard has been spot on.
	4:33pm DCE: I think by 10pm I'll be seriously IN
	4:34pm RMD: Greetings. Never been here before, very good things happening indeed.
	4:34pm Rory: Jammin!
	4:34pm DCE: ah, welcome, RMD, your world just got that much better!
	4:34pm fleep: Sixth star for Melton.
	4:34pm Mike East: @Cecile - surprised you haven't caught that yet...seems like your type of movie. btw, I have depicable me2 waiting for me at home tonight. @DCE - I appreciate it. Just don't give them any rice.
	4:35pm Stanley: This is amazing stuff Wheeeeeeeoooooooo
	4:35pm MenfussMike: I did not like American Hustle....I did not dislike it either.
	4:36pm glenn: i figured i should finally watch the first anchorman, so i streamed it last night. i honestly don't get the appeal, other than christina applegate.
	4:36pm chocolate monk: I aint ever seen the Hobbit or any of the prior flicks. I saw Polanskis "The Tenant" for the first time a couple of nights ago,, that was a good movie.
	4:36pm KP: Carlton Melton
	4:36pm DCE: I haven't even heard of the movie
	4:37pm DCE: I mean American Hustle
	4:37pm kirk from beer city usa: fabion meltbrain
	4:38pm chocolate monk: I thought "12 Years A Slave" was really good, but had to stop watching "Shame" 20 or so minutes in last night.. might try again,, worth it?? Still haven't seen McQueens first about Bobby Sands..
	4:39pm Donald Flake: Hi Fabio. Just curious to know if you ever lived/went to record stores in Birmingham. I think I may have got you mistaken with another DJ if not.
	4:40pm DCE: still trying to catch up on 100 movies I've DVR'd since the summer...I'm watching stuff from August now.
	4:40pm Mike East: @chocolate monk - I thought Shame was worth it, but definitely liked Hunger better. Even if you don't make it through Shame, check that one out.
	4:41pm sdfjones: For some reason I'd like to see an exploding house right about now.
	4:41pm Cheri Pi: Fuck. yes.
	4:42pm Fabio: Never Been to Birmingham
	4:42pm KP: A big house
	4:42pm DCE: Michaelangelo Antonionionionionioohnoohnoohno!
	4:43pm Barrie: I always think of the slow-mo raw chicken, from the exploding fridge at the end of Zabriskie point, when Waters starts screaming.
	4:43pm DCE: there goes the fridge
	4:44pm InBrkly: American Hustle reminded me of A Quiet Man. The story seemed secondary to the examination of the aesthetic of an era.
	4:44pm Night Al: Nice!
	4:45pm Donald Flake: okay. thanks.
	4:45pm Cecile: glenn, it is better with beer. Also, it's just a big heaping helping of stupid, which I can dig. It's kind of a polarizing movie.
	4:45pm InBrkly: or ugliness. take your pick.
	4:45pm MenfussMike: I agree InBrkly. Too much 70's chic and it's conclusion was a bit short.
	4:49pm Cecile: I'm just amazing that ABSCAM was so long ago.
	4:50pm glenn: apparently philadelphia has a notorious swiss cheese pervert. shouldn't they have a notorious cream cheese pervert? nnews.nationalpost.com...
	4:50pm glenn: i do love christina applegate, though.
	4:51pm Cecile: She is luminous in that movie, which is saying something.
	4:51pm InBrkly: I didnt think it was a bad movie--I just thought it was more about the look. If it had better pacing I would have liked it a lot more. The acting was very good though! Hardly recognized Bale.
	4:52pm common: it's true about the swiss cheese dude. i'm in philthy. proud.
	4:53pm glenn: he looks exactly like toronto's mayor mccrackypants.
	4:53pm Cecile: Oh, come on, "Fare thee well, Baxter. You will always be a friend to the bears" didn't get you?
	4:54pm Cecile: heheheehehehehehehehehehehehehehhehehehehhehehehehehe
	4:54pm Cecile: I love that stupid movie.
	4:54pm common: glenn: are they one and the same? that's a lot of commuting.
	4:56pm Cecile: 60 percent of the time it works all of the time!
	4:56pm fleep: Swiss is a good choice. Cheddar would be too crumbly and brie would be too soft.
	4:56pm glenn: i'm pretty sure a self admitted crack smoker won't be allowed across the border, but you never know.
	4:57pm Cecile: Flavor Flav seemed to be able to travel the world pretty freely in his day.
	5:00pm Ike: I finally saw Anchorman 1 recently too. Better than I was expecting, but C. Applegate was kind of wasted. As with so many other recent comedies, the women get stuck in no-fun roles as disapproving finger-waggers and only the men get to have fun.
	5:01pm kirk from beer city usa: is there a program on?
	5:02pm Cecile: I still thought she was great, Ike. I liked that she was the voice of reason. Also, she really beat the crap out of Ron Burgundy with that typewriter.
	5:03pm TDK60: Wasn't aware of the reversed, slowed No Pussyfooting tracks by Fripp & Eno!
	5:04pm Mike East: yes, Fabio, I am listening. and enjoying. I clicked my first clicky star in a very long time today.
	5:04pm InBrkly: Fabio, much like alcohol, your musical selection simply amplifies ones mood. If you are already tranquel, you will be more so. If you are a chatty cathy....
	5:04pm Cecile: and she gets some of the funniest lines in the movie.
	5:05pm 'And III'm Earrl Camembert': Flloyd Robertson sure didn't have bags o' laughs with Earl Camembert. Ha.
	5:05pm Cecile: Fabio, your music is manna for those of us with divided attention.
	5:05pm Ike: If this is radio furniture, then it's the most exquisite Duchamp-esque furniture ever, mangled wooden chairs bundled inside multicolored metal extrusions hanging upside-down off the walls and ceilings.
	5:05pm TDK60: Don't worry Fabio -- for me this is a true music appreciation class.
	5:06pm Cecile: Mike East, I think you will like DM2 very much.
	5:07pm Sandy in Houston: Keith Rowe came to town a year or so ago and brought a bunch of Scratch Orchestra pieces that we performed & it was fun.
	5:07pm Philthy woman: Common, maybe you are right! Too much time in a car commuting makes people do strange things. Mayhaps the swiss cheese started as a way to not have to make rest stops and stay 'decent' while having convenient holes to let the fluids out,
	5:07pm Night Al: Radio furniture? ... This couch smells funny.
	5:07pm Cecile: hey, sandy!
	5:07pm Philthy woman: ...and then he liked it too much...
	5:08pm Night Al: This would make excellent druid processional music.
	5:09pm dale: do you think the cheese masturbators lawyer will be able to kraft a defense?
	5:09pm TDK60: Almost forgot! I have a very old, home-taped cassette of Floyd's 'Ummagumma', very muffled. But the tape got tangled and upside-down so it plays backwards!
	5:11pm Sandy in Houston: Hi Cecile!
	5:11pm Fabio: @ Dale: Really?
	5:11pm earrie: Oh, dale! For singles, undoubtedly, yes
	5:11pm Santos L Halper: Felicitations! Enjoying Fabio's Floyd-fest and Frequency Furniture Forum Freakout Fun! Meant to post this back when it was published. You’ve probably seen it, but thought the board might also enjoy: opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com...
	5:11pm !.!: seem like my bou favbio ALWAYS on....!!!!!! 'n' i like it ;)
	👻 5:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Sorry I'm late. Was busy processionalizing...
	5:13pm Cecile: SLH, people who don't fail very much seem to like writing articles about failure.
	5:14pm chocolate monk: TDK60.. send it to Fabio, he would jam it,, he loves a bit of Gen ken 8-Track magic,, but then, who doesn't???
	5:14pm TDK60: This Fabio Failure is truly Felicitous.
	5:17pm dale: can't be the worst joke on the topic fabio.
	5:19pm Night Al: If Greg or Ian chance to reach Nirvana are irrelevant, why sing them? Does anybody get it?
	5:21pm david_: this cornelius cardew is purdy.
	5:23pm TDK60: @ Chocolate Monk: I could tape him a cassette of it...it would be more muffled too.
	5:23pm Ike: If this show were furniture, it would look like this: www.artsjournal.com...
	5:24pm david_: high-speed dubbing!
	5:24pm chocolate monk: more muffle.
	5:24pm YETI BOB: Fabio: I've been meaning to learn more about Cardew. Thanks for the opportunity!
	5:25pm Cecile: Ike, there aren't enough beer bottles or Luna bar wrappers strewn around.
	5:26pm Sem Chumbo: @Ike: it works for me.
	5:30pm YETI BOB: Ike: That's not FURNITURE, it's ART. Looks like a John Chamberlain on the left, and a Jean Tingueley on the right.
	5:30pm david_: wow, Alog is quite prolific.
	5:31pm YETI BOB: @Ike: also of interest: John Chamberlain's son Jesse drummed for the Red Krayola in the 80's.
	5:32pm Cecile: DAMN!
	5:32pm TDK60: Beefheart and MLK birthdays.
	5:33pm david_: Captain Beefheart and MLK share the same birth date... who knew?!
	5:33pm Xray Gingham: More texture?
	5:33pm MenfussMike: i LOVE beefheart....but I HATE Trout Mask Replica.....I think I'm weird
	5:33pm Ike: @YB@5:30, my point exactly. But if you insist on actual furniture, maybe you'd prefer: www.oddee.com...
	5:33pm dale: beefheart had a dream
	5:34pm david_: I owe you a Coke, TDK60.
	5:34pm TDK60: Who played the Theremin? Or was that synth? Ry Cooder was likely on electric geetar.
	5:35pm Cecile: MM, I like it, but not like the other ones. I actually was supposed to name one of my influences in class yesterday, and Beefheart was #1. And now i know it was his birthday, that makes it cooler.
	5:35pm dale: i never got into him, but stuff i hear here i like. fmu is the great curator!
	5:36pm YETI BOB: @Ike: www.berlinartlink.com...
	5:37pm bobdoesthings: I think I like this version more than the album version...
	5:37pm Cecile: Fab, can you played Owed t'Alex?
	5:38pm Bill F.: Today's my birthday, Fabio, no joke. How 'bout one of those jams from the Mirror Man Sessions? It's OK if the answer is no!!!
	5:40pm Xray Gingham: Stop. Mike doesn't like.
	5:41pm Fredericks: MenfussMike, I, too, am a Beefheart fan who has little time for Trout Mask. Like the cover and The Blimp (which I understand is actually the Mothers not the Magic Band backing the Captain.)
	5:42pm MenfussMike: Hehehe
	5:42pm Night Al: We lost 2 supporting TV actors today .... Dave Madden -- who played "The Partridge Family's" aggravated band manager on the 1970s TV show -- has died after a long illness at age 82 ... TMZ has learned. Madden played Reuben Kincaid on the show ... who was often bedeviled by the antics of the Partridge kids, particularly Danny, played by Danny Bonaduce. Dave's former agent tells TMZ ... he died of congestive heart and kidney failure early this morning. Madden also appeared on another popular 70s TV show, "Laugh-In" and was the author of a couple books, including a book of memoirs published in 2007. We're told Madden died in Florida ... where he lived with his wife. ALSO... The actor who played the Professor in "Gilligan's Island" has died ... TMZ has learned. Russell Johnson, who played Professor Roy Hinkley, died of natural causes at his home in Washington. Dawn Wells, who played Mary Ann, just posted on Facebook, "My 2 favorite people are now gone. The professor past (sic) away this morning. My heart is broken." The other person who died is Bob Denver, who played Gilligan. He died in 2005. Johnson was on the show from 1964 to 1967. Johnson was not in the original opening of the show. He and Mary Ann were referred to as "The rest." But Denver insisted that they be included and that happened later. Wells went on: "Russell was a true gentleman, a good father, a great friend, and 'the rest.'" Johnson was married -- this was his third wife. He passed away in hospice, surrounded by his wife and 2 kids. Johnson was 89. The only surviving members of the original cast are Mary Ann and Ginger, played by Tina Louise.
	5:43pm TDK60: Kandy Korn is sorta psych meets post-punk? A precursor?
	5:44pm Fredericks: Oh, and "Dachau Blues".
	5:44pm kirk from beer city usa: LOVE this song, thanks Fabio
	5:44pm MenfussMike: Fredericks, I am glad I am not the only one. I would much rather hear Safe As Milk, Spotlight, Ice Cream for Crow...really any other. Trout Mask is my least favorite Beefheart, yet it seems as it is THE ONE in the public eye.
	5:45pm Xray Gingham: Hahaha
	5:45pm ReCalcitrant: Another non-Trout Mask fan. Big fan of Doc at the Radar Station and Shiny Beast/Bat Chain Puller and Safe as Milk.
	5:46pm chocolate monk: its a percurosr straddler... a rare but fine breed. i reckon the captain musta had some genius chafing for sure.
	5:47pm dale: yeah see, this beefheart doesn't cut it for me.
	5:47pm Cecile: Love any iteration of Bat Chain Puller. Also, Clear Spot.
	5:47pm TDK60: Ella Guru is great. Scary, funny, powerful.
	5:47pm Fredericks: I have a soft spot for Clear Spot.
	5:48pm MenfussMike: Clear Spot is a diamond!
	5:48pm Night Al: On this day in 1980 - Paul McCartney was jailed in Tokyo for possession of a half pound of marijuana. He spent ten days behind bars before being kicked-out of the country by Japanese authorities. The remainder of his tour was canceled.
	5:48pm MenfussMike: Regardless, thank you Fabio and more importantly, thank you Don and his band
	5:48pm TDK60: One vote for T.M.R.
	5:49pm nic: i didn't like any of beefheart
	5:49pm Rich in Washington: I go back and forth on TMR often. Currently, I am rather fond of certain songs on it.
	5:50pm Night Al: Not a good start Clay...
	5:50pm TDK60: Burnt Weeny Sandwich
	5:51pm chocolate monk: Beefheart. he done those two real DUDS! but apart from that, he's the shit.

	5:52pm Scott: I have this bumper sticker, it's a baby's face with Safe As Milk printed next to it. I have it on my office wall. I must have gotten it back in the 1970s, 'cause I found it with some old junk, but I have no idea where I got it. I was into Zappa but never Beefheart, and had no idea that Capt. Beefheart had an album with that name until a few years ago. A mystery I guess.
