Listener comments!
	👻 3:02pm rrg: Yeah, right, it's a winter wonderland out there.
	3:04pm Parq: Exactly.
	3:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...except that Cali is having record drought & is worse off than the rest of us...freakin' cold is right though...
	3:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...up heah in NewHampshuh literally so Cold it won't snow...
	3:11pm Mike East: JUST YESTERDAY I was thinking about how I need to get this Courtney Barnett record.
	3:11pm Sem Chumbo: No such luck here, on the other side of the jet stream: www.intellicast.com...
	3:12pm berbo: Gardening is great therapy.
	3:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - oh! - there I am Sem - 'LEB' NH...it's like Sandy when NY/NJ & points South on the Coast took the hit for us...Thx for that, btw...
	👻 3:14pm rrg: Hey, we didn't take it for YOU, RRN63. We took it for the TEAM.
	3:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - wull - Thx anyway man !
	3:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...glad there's some benefit to living in the gawdam hills...
	👻 3:16pm Alison Porchnik: Bout time we heard some James Wolff.
	3:17pm Robert: Yeah, pseudoephedrine's an alpha agonist, so it can at high dose make breathing harder.
	👻 3:17pm rrg: I can only hear James Wolff here, on this program, and nowhere else. That's a shame but it also makes me feel like we're a bit special here.
	3:18pm Ike: I'm ambivalent about Barnett's voice, but the lyrics are great. "The paramedic thinks I'm clever 'cause I play guitar/ I think she's clever 'cause she stops people dying."
	3:19pm Mike East: @Ike - I like it...my wife does a spot on impression of her.
	👻 3:20pm rrg: I liked that line too.
	👻 3:21pm Alison Porchnik: Hey Irwin, is Jason Moran related to Beans Moran, by any chance? Maybe he can help her break into the music biz. She's got quite a voice, I hear.
	3:21pm Monica: this "planet rock" definitely caught me off guard!
	3:22pm Irwin: AP: No relation to my knowledge, tho Jason is one cool cat.
	3:28pm Robert: Irwin's describing Chicago weather.
	3:28pm Scott W: Irwin, sounds like you should move to Ithaca
	3:33pm steve: i watched two of the full length movies by The Passionate and Objective Jokerfan mastermind Matt Farley this weekend, and would like to report that "Local Legends" is an excellent no-budget DIY flick
	👻 3:36pm rrg: Hey, when is the WFMU doc coming out?
	3:37pm Parq: Steve, thanks for the tip. Is it on Youtube? Netflix? ITunes?
	3:39pm steve: its on youtube in its entirety! www.youtube.com...
	3:41pm berbo: After days of sub-zero temperatures, today's 12 degrees feels downright cozy. I'm hot-blooded, check it and see. I got a fever of 103.
	3:41pm Droll: I wonder how long it will take the FMU documentary to end up on YT... or if it will also come with director's comments like "Local Legends"
	3:42pm Droll: This is DJ Donna Summer?!?!?! Where did all the notes go? Is this at half-speed?
	3:43pm steve: i also watched one of his older movies, Freaky Farley, which was good fun, but WAY different - Local Legends is a super heartfelt feel good bio pic about MFs life, Freaky Farley is an entertaining but intentionally silly horror/comedy b movie
	3:47pm Conor: This is beautiful ;(
	3:48pm Laura L: This is why marijuana should be legalized everywhere.
	3:48pm berbo: Meh. I'll take Ziggy Bathtub over this any day.
	3:49pm dale: does leonard get money from riaa fees from you playing the stoned hippies?
	3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I take it back: Autotune is glorious...
	3:56pm Ike: For more Youtubery, the hilariously sick and twisted new Adult Swim series "Rick & Morty" is also on YT (and legally, too). It's a bit like a darker Futurama: www.youtube.com...
	4:00pm Michele: HI Irwin! I hate Syd Barrett covers. I love Syd Barrett.
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I love Syd & I like this.
	4:02pm Eric: who is Arden Eno?
	4:02pm Irwin: C'mon, Mich, there's lots of great covers of Lucifer Sam. Why so intolerant?
	4:02pm Irwin: Arden Eno is one cool Katz.
	4:04pm Eric: google Arden Eno only brings up your playlist from last week
	👻 4:04pm rrg: That's fine! Not a problem.
	4:05pm Droll: . o O ( I still think there should be a word for when that happens, which is all the time here at FMU )
	👻 4:05pm rrg: I can tell it's incorrect even before she sings the first line.
	4:05pm Parq: Droll makes an interesting point -- what kind of extras will there be on the eventual DVD edition of the FMU doc?
	4:05pm Michele: Play me one. Try and change my mind.
	4:05pm ?: Gool ol' Irwin, killing it today.
	👻 4:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: I'm sure this time next summer, we'll be wishing for some of this cold.
	4:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this sounds like it could be part of a Joe Frank episode...
	4:07pm Michele: I like this Crazy cover though.
	4:07pm Nanker de Tucson: This "Crazy" cover is brutal
	4:07pm earrie: Saw Jean-Marc Vallée's C.R.A.Z.Y for the first time recently. Great flick all around. And a Patsy Cline rare release figures as a plot point.
	4:08pm earrie: Er, I guess it's 'C.R.A.Z.Y.' not 'C.R.A.Z.Y'.
	👻 4:09pm rrg: Mr. Ken from Hyde Park: you speak nonsense, sir, when you speak about our future summer wish for winter cold.
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this perhaps proposes the options are prolonged subzero & stormy like now - or 90°F w/ 90% humidity like we had...gee, great choice...
	4:15pm Michele: @earrie Where did you see it? Is it online anywhere?
	👻 4:15pm rrg: You used to be one, but you got better.
	4:16pm Mike East: winter makes me wish for spring. Summer makes me wish for fall. My wishes always come true...eventually.
	4:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& they don't have to pertain to the Program ! or what the DJ says ! but this does.
	4:18pm Mike East: Last Sunday, the wnyc Joe Frank episode featured Larry Block's kid. That really gave me a new perspective on Larry Block. Anyone ever hear that one?
	4:19pm Madoshi: Haha! It's the 'Detroit Techno Militia', not mafia. Good to know they'll be on the air. They're some of the best techno DJ's out there right now.
	4:19pm glenn: do you mean lawrence block, the mystery writer?
	4:21pm earrie: It's rare to find Canadian films in Canadian cinemas except in repcinemas - it was a loaner. Found this link an org that sells it in Finland: http://www.futurefilm.fi/dvd_leffakortti.php?id=1000799
	4:21pm Irwin: Program note says "... Techno Mafia." You'll have to take it up with Small Change. www.wfmu.org...
	4:21pm Mike East: no, Larry Block, the failed actor.
	4:23pm earrie: Vallée's a director who loves music. He uses it really well.
	4:26pm Longtime Listener: The FMU antenna is supposed to be on top of a mountain but I can't find a picture of it
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: en.wikipedia.org... Personnel[edit] Lee Morgan - trumpet Jackie McLean - alto saxophone Bobby Timmons - piano Paul Chambers - bass Art Blakey - drums
	4:31pm Irwin: Thanks, rebel bunnyman.
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...buncha nobodies - but there it is...
	👻 4:35pm rrg: I dunno. Maybe I should pay more attention to this Gotye guy.
	4:36pm still b/p: Rebel bunny in Mandela's ear: www.google.com...
	4:37pm Droll: rrg, Indeed, it's all going to be on the quiz at the end of the show.
	4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - we have Mandela's ear ! Our time is now...
	4:38pm common: hi irwin. i never say hello to you. sorry. hi everyone.
	4:41pm earrie: Aha-- via the production company http://attractionimages.ca/en/productions/action/show/Production/nom/crazy
	👻 4:42pm rrg: Oh, goody!
	👻 4:42pm rrg: This is what YouTube is FOR.
	4:43pm still b/p: Them rabbits'll live warm and neat as you please in your ear, Lenny. And you'll get to take care of 'em.
	4:43pm Droll: This is what WFMU is FOR!
	4:43pm deborah: The 1970-71 "stoned hippie banter" might be my friends and I. Are the weathermen on there? The 12 drugs of Christmas? Enema Lady? "Changes" was my show, in between being thrown off the air, allowed back and studying at Upsala College.
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...due to circumstances beyond our control - The Great American Songbook will henceforth be termed - The Passably Bearable American Songbook...Thank You...
	4:45pm Laura L: Wunderschoen. The fundamental loneliness goes when we hear the impeccable style of Herr Ruttkowski.
	👻 4:46pm rrg: I stand corrected, Droll. Though actually I'm sitting down.
	4:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...until further pending revision...
	4:46pm dale: wolfgang can really roll an R
	👻 4:47pm rrg: Ms. deborah, really? That's so cool, if you can lay claim to that 40-year-old banter.
	4:47pm Irwin: I love this guy.
	4:47pm still b/p: Haven't seen Wolfgang's vids, but I hope he's wearing a velvet tux jacket.
	4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...The GrRreat American Songbook...
	👻 4:48pm rrg: So can Piaf, you know. Roll an R, I mean. And yes, Irwin, I have to admit I like this guy too. We ALL do. Right, team IC?
	4:49pm Droll: I think a Ruttkowski-Shatner duet would work. They share a peculiar cadence & phrasing.
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I rolled an R w/ Piaf in 1971...
	4:49pm Irwin: As far as I can tell Wolfgang does not appear in his vids. Either static shots of himself and an accompanist or galleries of painted portraits.
	4:51pm common: that's the way to go.
	4:51pm deborah: rrg...I can certainly claim it. It was a great time in my life. My show played a lot of follk and commentary, including Dylan, others much more obscure and the great Phil Ochs whose song "Changes" I took as my theme. I was one of the few women on the station at the time. It changed drastically around 1972 and I graduated Upsala anyway. Came back later to teach there and run the Learning Center until it closed. Happily WFMU lives; it is my main radio station.
	4:53pm common: did you really roll an r rev. rabbit?
	4:53pm Irwin: Deborah: the version of "Suzanne" did not originate with the WFMU tapes found by Pea Hicks. Unrelated tape.
	👻 4:54pm rrg: You should get those recordings from Irwin, or Pea Hicks, or whoever has them. I would SO love to have even one recording of the radio show I did when I was in university.
	4:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Piaf promised she'd say she saw nothing...
	4:54pm deborah: I know. Just heard you mention 1070-71 and "stoned hippie banter" and ears perked.
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...now that is what FMU is for !...
	4:55pm deborah: rrg...We used to have tapes, some reel to reel. A lot were lost and some of the stuff was just spontaneous. We showed up on each other's shows a lot.
	👻 4:55pm rrg: And here's another one. Why don't I hear Lane Steinberg anywhere but here? Though I must confess I don't get out much.
	4:56pm deborah: I mean 1970-71, Irwin.
	4:56pm Droll: rrg, They're all on YouTube. You sound like a stoned hippie! How many times can you drop a clipboard on-air in an hour?
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I wish I could hear Syd Barrett do the Eagles...
	5:06pm Mike East: wow, this is so much better than the original
	5:09pm glenn: can we hear the stampeders now?
	👻 5:10pm rrg: No CanCon requirements here, Glenn. Thank goodness.
	5:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'not that bad - just - not in my universe...she found the soul' - ✔
	5:11pm glenn: for the most part i agree, but how can you not love sweet city woman?
	👻 5:13pm rrg: I guess. I remember a French language cover of "Sweet City Woman" that played in Montreal in the early 1970s. I may be the only one who remembers that.
	👻 5:13pm rrg: THESE guys again. Very good.
	5:14pm Mark in DC: Thanks Irwin, Eagles don't exist in my universe either, but I can never say it because I hurt peoples' feelings.
	👻 5:14pm rrg: Klay (rhymes with "high") Family Band. I remember.
	5:14pm fleep: @rrg This cover? www.youtube.com...
	👻 5:15pm Alison Porchnik: We need to hear more of Megan Jean!!!!
	5:15pm glenn: this one? www.45cat.com...
	5:16pm glenn: huh. it's really good.
	5:16pm Carmichael: I feel about the same way the Big Lebowski does. I heard a word yesterday that immediately reminded me of last week's grammar rant on this board: "Futherance".
	👻 5:17pm rrg: If I can find the audio I'll let you know. But, probably--but for some reason I thought it was actually a cover by someone else, and not just The Stampeders themselves being politically correct (though I don't think that was the phrase in use at the time).
	5:17pm Santos L Halper: Listening on my phone; after that set ended i went to open up laptop to read some comments but found an error message:"You are not connected to the internet" There are no coincidences
	👻 5:18pm rrg: Wait, there's a link! "Listen to this record." What?
	5:18pm glenn: ummm, i think they were covering all their bases, sales wise.
	👻 5:18pm rrg: But I can't listen now. I'm listening to this program on WFMU.
	5:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Financially Correct...
	👻 5:19pm rrg: Oh, the link doesn't work anyway. Just an Amazon link.
	5:19pm dale: lisa germano reminds me of linda perry and i just checked - NO ONE HAS EVER PLAYED LINDA PERRY ON THIS STATION. sad. in flight is an awesome album
	5:20pm Droll: That is where the term "cover song" comes from: covering different markets. Originally it was white artists playing "Race Records" to cover both markets.
	5:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - DawgDayBugIt !!
	👻 5:22pm rrg: Yes, fleep and Glenn and Droll and all: that's the song, and I sit corrected about "cover" versions and, well, everything. Just everything. All right?
	5:23pm Carmichael: Filthy hippies, slackjawed yokels, pop stars and fake Floyd. Irwin's show, in other words.
	5:24pm glenn: i never had any idea they did it in french, so i had zero beef. thanks for pointing me in that direction.
	👻 5:25pm Alison Porchnik: I really love this.
	5:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I feel like I'm listening to Hearty's show now...after rolling an R...
	5:27pm Carmichael: Komm Gib Mir Deine Stampeders.
	👻 5:27pm rrg: Does anyone here remember "Underneath My Pillow" by "Bubbles and Co."? From the 1960s? I used to have that single, don't anymore, and have been looking for it for years.
	5:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: OuiOuiOui !
	👻 5:28pm rrg: I ask since we're all here today.
	5:28pm djelrock: This is Genius!
	5:28pm earrie: "It's sorta the head head." Ha
	5:30pm Irwin: Hard to find an exit strategy for Ivy & the Wicker Suitcase. It's all great.
	👻 5:30pm rrg: ivyandthewickersuitcase.com
	5:31pm Mike: aWSOME STUFF
	5:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - & great for 'radio' - what a Production...
	👻 5:33pm rrg: $30 including the book and CD.
	5:34pm InBrkly: Come as you are?
	5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - no - the other Greatest Artist of my age group...
	5:35pm InBrkly: sometimes I wish you could unsubmit a comment but I guess that defeats live chat.
	5:36pm KP: Great Buckley
	5:36pm !.!: irwon#2 welime to fmu u r welcom here n we luv u n luv u musoc,,,,!!!!
	5:37pm !.!: @rrg: no i do not have that, but will llook
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - bah! - just do it enuff InBrkly & no one pays attention - trust me on this...
	5:39pm InBrkly: Heh i thought that but then a couple of times the DJ read my comment. Instead of a moment of pride I was embarassed.
	👻 5:41pm rrg: "Embarrassed"
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...we're gonna find ya man - & en masse we're gonna point @ you & go 'neener neener' - !!...then all buy ya a beer...
	5:43pm InBrkly: <facepalm>
	5:45pm Droll: rrg, Well played, sir.
	5:46pm Ike: Due to inclement English language conditions caused by a commenter, please prepare for imminent exploding brains of editors. Gory spatter from exploded brains may be slippery. Tread carefully. We will not be liable if you slip and fall on the gore. Only !.! will be liable. Don't sue us.
	5:47pm KP: Love Iris. Great show
	👻 5:47pm rrg: Holy cow. Have I ever heard Iris DeMent played on Irwin's show before? Can't remember. Her voice is so odd, but I've always loved it. Thanks for the reminder.
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...may Iris DeMent in one ear & Blossom Dearie in the other guide me to my Sleep...
	5:48pm Carmichael: Irwin has found his inner Okie today.
	5:48pm KP: Re: I liked that film about him, basically because it was mostly music, and because it mentions Fmu
	5:49pm Mike: http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/171103142138?lpid=82
	5:49pm Nanker de Tucson: Knew this was Iris D within the 1st measure
	5:49pm KP: Re: Buckley
	5:49pm dale: tom rush - bout time
	👻 5:49pm rrg: I saw her open once at Carnegie Hall for someone else. She was better.
	5:50pm glenn: excellent.
	5:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...she writes real good too...
	5:50pm andaloudog: Thanks for playing Tom, especially this one.
	5:50pm Pete the Flicker: This is the first Iris Dement song I ever heard twenty something years ago and it melted my heart. What a great choice to play Irwin. Thanks for the memories!
	5:51pm dale: this and a childs song and driving wheel are just stellar.
	5:51pm Laura L: Speaking of unusual voices, you could play Jimmie Dale Gilmore sometime... "Midnight Train" from the album "After Awhile" for instance.
	5:52pm KP: Winter closing in
	5:52pm Parq: I've clicky-starred the Rush, because it really is a favorite, but I agree that the DeMent was wonderful.
	👻 5:52pm rrg: There you go again, Irwin. You won't play Joni's version of this song (perhaps my favorite recording of hers) but you keep playing Tom Rush's version. Which I also like. But, well.
	5:53pm dale: what does clicky starring do?
	👻 5:54pm rrg: It means people can see what you clicky-starred.
	5:54pm dale: do i win prizes?
	5:55pm Droll: What does looking to see who clicked do?
	5:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - it makes you feel like your opinion matters - when in fact it's totally inconsequential...if it wasn't, they'd stop me...
	👻 5:56pm rrg: Iris opened for Nanci Griffith. On whom I've soured for some reason. I need to introspect about that.
	5:56pm Parq: This Neil Dick is what Ira Kaplan would sound like if he didn't have talent.
	👻 5:57pm rrg: Hey. It's almost 18:00. WTF?
	5:57pm Mike East: the only function it serves (as far as I can tell) is that if you hear a song you like, you click a star. Then when you want to remember what songs you heard and liked, you can go back and see. When you click on the songs in your clicky catalogue, it links you back to the playlist where you found them and you can easily play that track in the archive, as long as its time stamped.
	5:57pm jan: Neil Dick snapped me back from the Tom Rush revery. What a segue!
	5:57pm Listening Out There: Incorrect Music 2001 is The Future
	5:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @rrg - that may be an exmple of opener & headliner being too close - too much the same - for comfort...
	5:57pm Carmichael: Jimmie Dale's voice drives me batty. Same with Victoria Williams.
	👻 5:58pm rrg: Thanks for a fine program, Irwin. The only thing that can follow that is...dinner. Bye, all.
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it's neat-o when you see stuff you ☆ed come up already ☆ed in a new Playlist: It let's you know that DJ is not so original...
	👻 5:59pm rrg: Nanci claimed to have discovered Iris, I think.
	9:37am billybumpus: how much do you have to pledge to get a sweet t-shirt?
	12:51pm Van in DC: Oh hi. Kimbra.... did you see this live performance by her? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6i1mr9amqeg

	👻 3:02pm rrg: Yeah, right, it's a winter wonderland out there.
	3:04pm Parq: Exactly.
	3:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...except that Cali is having record drought & is worse off than the rest of us...freakin' cold is right though...
	3:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...up heah in NewHampshuh literally so Cold it won't snow...
	3:11pm Mike East: JUST YESTERDAY I was thinking about how I need to get this Courtney Barnett record.
	3:11pm Sem Chumbo: No such luck here, on the other side of the jet stream: www.intellicast.com...
	3:12pm berbo: Gardening is great therapy.
	3:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - oh! - there I am Sem - 'LEB' NH...it's like Sandy when NY/NJ & points South on the Coast took the hit for us...Thx for that, btw...
	👻 3:14pm rrg: Hey, we didn't take it for YOU, RRN63. We took it for the TEAM.
	3:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - wull - Thx anyway man !
	3:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...glad there's some benefit to living in the gawdam hills...
	👻 3:16pm Alison Porchnik: Bout time we heard some James Wolff.
	3:17pm Robert: Yeah, pseudoephedrine's an alpha agonist, so it can at high dose make breathing harder.
	👻 3:17pm rrg: I can only hear James Wolff here, on this program, and nowhere else. That's a shame but it also makes me feel like we're a bit special here.
	3:18pm Ike: I'm ambivalent about Barnett's voice, but the lyrics are great. "The paramedic thinks I'm clever 'cause I play guitar/ I think she's clever 'cause she stops people dying."
	3:19pm Mike East: @Ike - I like it...my wife does a spot on impression of her.
	👻 3:20pm rrg: I liked that line too.
	👻 3:21pm Alison Porchnik: Hey Irwin, is Jason Moran related to Beans Moran, by any chance? Maybe he can help her break into the music biz. She's got quite a voice, I hear.
	3:21pm Monica: this "planet rock" definitely caught me off guard!
	3:22pm Irwin: AP: No relation to my knowledge, tho Jason is one cool cat.
	3:28pm Robert: Irwin's describing Chicago weather.
	3:28pm Scott W: Irwin, sounds like you should move to Ithaca
	3:33pm steve: i watched two of the full length movies by The Passionate and Objective Jokerfan mastermind Matt Farley this weekend, and would like to report that "Local Legends" is an excellent no-budget DIY flick
	👻 3:36pm rrg: Hey, when is the WFMU doc coming out?
	3:37pm Parq: Steve, thanks for the tip. Is it on Youtube? Netflix? ITunes?
	3:39pm steve: its on youtube in its entirety! www.youtube.com...
	3:41pm berbo: After days of sub-zero temperatures, today's 12 degrees feels downright cozy. I'm hot-blooded, check it and see. I got a fever of 103.
	3:41pm Droll: I wonder how long it will take the FMU documentary to end up on YT... or if it will also come with director's comments like "Local Legends"
	3:42pm Droll: This is DJ Donna Summer?!?!?! Where did all the notes go? Is this at half-speed?
	3:43pm steve: i also watched one of his older movies, Freaky Farley, which was good fun, but WAY different - Local Legends is a super heartfelt feel good bio pic about MFs life, Freaky Farley is an entertaining but intentionally silly horror/comedy b movie
	3:47pm Conor: This is beautiful ;(
	3:48pm Laura L: This is why marijuana should be legalized everywhere.
	3:48pm berbo: Meh. I'll take Ziggy Bathtub over this any day.
	3:49pm dale: does leonard get money from riaa fees from you playing the stoned hippies?
	3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I take it back: Autotune is glorious...
	3:56pm Ike: For more Youtubery, the hilariously sick and twisted new Adult Swim series "Rick & Morty" is also on YT (and legally, too). It's a bit like a darker Futurama: www.youtube.com...
	4:00pm Michele: HI Irwin! I hate Syd Barrett covers. I love Syd Barrett.
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I love Syd & I like this.
	4:02pm Eric: who is Arden Eno?
	4:02pm Irwin: C'mon, Mich, there's lots of great covers of Lucifer Sam. Why so intolerant?
	4:02pm Irwin: Arden Eno is one cool Katz.
	4:04pm Eric: google Arden Eno only brings up your playlist from last week
	👻 4:04pm rrg: That's fine! Not a problem.
	4:05pm Droll: . o O ( I still think there should be a word for when that happens, which is all the time here at FMU )
	👻 4:05pm rrg: I can tell it's incorrect even before she sings the first line.
	4:05pm Parq: Droll makes an interesting point -- what kind of extras will there be on the eventual DVD edition of the FMU doc?
	4:05pm Michele: Play me one. Try and change my mind.
	4:05pm ?: Gool ol' Irwin, killing it today.
	👻 4:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: I'm sure this time next summer, we'll be wishing for some of this cold.
	4:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this sounds like it could be part of a Joe Frank episode...
	4:07pm Michele: I like this Crazy cover though.
	4:07pm Nanker de Tucson: This "Crazy" cover is brutal
	4:07pm earrie: Saw Jean-Marc Vallée's C.R.A.Z.Y for the first time recently. Great flick all around. And a Patsy Cline rare release figures as a plot point.
	4:08pm earrie: Er, I guess it's 'C.R.A.Z.Y.' not 'C.R.A.Z.Y'.
	👻 4:09pm rrg: Mr. Ken from Hyde Park: you speak nonsense, sir, when you speak about our future summer wish for winter cold.
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this perhaps proposes the options are prolonged subzero & stormy like now - or 90°F w/ 90% humidity like we had...gee, great choice...
	4:15pm Michele: @earrie Where did you see it? Is it online anywhere?
	👻 4:15pm rrg: You used to be one, but you got better.
	4:16pm Mike East: winter makes me wish for spring. Summer makes me wish for fall. My wishes always come true...eventually.
	4:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& they don't have to pertain to the Program ! or what the DJ says ! but this does.
	4:18pm Mike East: Last Sunday, the wnyc Joe Frank episode featured Larry Block's kid. That really gave me a new perspective on Larry Block. Anyone ever hear that one?
	4:19pm Madoshi: Haha! It's the 'Detroit Techno Militia', not mafia. Good to know they'll be on the air. They're some of the best techno DJ's out there right now.
	4:19pm glenn: do you mean lawrence block, the mystery writer?
	4:21pm earrie: It's rare to find Canadian films in Canadian cinemas except in repcinemas - it was a loaner. Found this link an org that sells it in Finland: http://www.futurefilm.fi/dvd_leffakortti.php?id=1000799
	4:21pm Irwin: Program note says "... Techno Mafia." You'll have to take it up with Small Change. www.wfmu.org...
	4:21pm Mike East: no, Larry Block, the failed actor.
	4:23pm earrie: Vallée's a director who loves music. He uses it really well.
	4:26pm Longtime Listener: The FMU antenna is supposed to be on top of a mountain but I can't find a picture of it
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: en.wikipedia.org... Personnel[edit] Lee Morgan - trumpet Jackie McLean - alto saxophone Bobby Timmons - piano Paul Chambers - bass Art Blakey - drums
	4:31pm Irwin: Thanks, rebel bunnyman.
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...buncha nobodies - but there it is...
	👻 4:35pm rrg: I dunno. Maybe I should pay more attention to this Gotye guy.
	4:36pm still b/p: Rebel bunny in Mandela's ear: www.google.com...
	4:37pm Droll: rrg, Indeed, it's all going to be on the quiz at the end of the show.
	4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - we have Mandela's ear ! Our time is now...
	4:38pm common: hi irwin. i never say hello to you. sorry. hi everyone.
	4:41pm earrie: Aha-- via the production company http://attractionimages.ca/en/productions/action/show/Production/nom/crazy
	👻 4:42pm rrg: Oh, goody!
	👻 4:42pm rrg: This is what YouTube is FOR.
	4:43pm still b/p: Them rabbits'll live warm and neat as you please in your ear, Lenny. And you'll get to take care of 'em.
	4:43pm Droll: This is what WFMU is FOR!
	4:43pm deborah: The 1970-71 "stoned hippie banter" might be my friends and I. Are the weathermen on there? The 12 drugs of Christmas? Enema Lady? "Changes" was my show, in between being thrown off the air, allowed back and studying at Upsala College.
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...due to circumstances beyond our control - The Great American Songbook will henceforth be termed - The Passably Bearable American Songbook...Thank You...
	4:45pm Laura L: Wunderschoen. The fundamental loneliness goes when we hear the impeccable style of Herr Ruttkowski.
	👻 4:46pm rrg: I stand corrected, Droll. Though actually I'm sitting down.
	4:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...until further pending revision...
	4:46pm dale: wolfgang can really roll an R
	👻 4:47pm rrg: Ms. deborah, really? That's so cool, if you can lay claim to that 40-year-old banter.
	4:47pm Irwin: I love this guy.
	4:47pm still b/p: Haven't seen Wolfgang's vids, but I hope he's wearing a velvet tux jacket.
	4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...The GrRreat American Songbook...
	👻 4:48pm rrg: So can Piaf, you know. Roll an R, I mean. And yes, Irwin, I have to admit I like this guy too. We ALL do. Right, team IC?
	4:49pm Droll: I think a Ruttkowski-Shatner duet would work. They share a peculiar cadence & phrasing.
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I rolled an R w/ Piaf in 1971...
	4:49pm Irwin: As far as I can tell Wolfgang does not appear in his vids. Either static shots of himself and an accompanist or galleries of painted portraits.
	4:51pm common: that's the way to go.
	4:51pm deborah: rrg...I can certainly claim it. It was a great time in my life. My show played a lot of follk and commentary, including Dylan, others much more obscure and the great Phil Ochs whose song "Changes" I took as my theme. I was one of the few women on the station at the time. It changed drastically around 1972 and I graduated Upsala anyway. Came back later to teach there and run the Learning Center until it closed. Happily WFMU lives; it is my main radio station.
	4:53pm common: did you really roll an r rev. rabbit?
	4:53pm Irwin: Deborah: the version of "Suzanne" did not originate with the WFMU tapes found by Pea Hicks. Unrelated tape.
	👻 4:54pm rrg: You should get those recordings from Irwin, or Pea Hicks, or whoever has them. I would SO love to have even one recording of the radio show I did when I was in university.
	4:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Piaf promised she'd say she saw nothing...
	4:54pm deborah: I know. Just heard you mention 1070-71 and "stoned hippie banter" and ears perked.
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...now that is what FMU is for !...
	4:55pm deborah: rrg...We used to have tapes, some reel to reel. A lot were lost and some of the stuff was just spontaneous. We showed up on each other's shows a lot.
	👻 4:55pm rrg: And here's another one. Why don't I hear Lane Steinberg anywhere but here? Though I must confess I don't get out much.
	4:56pm deborah: I mean 1970-71, Irwin.
	4:56pm Droll: rrg, They're all on YouTube. You sound like a stoned hippie! How many times can you drop a clipboard on-air in an hour?
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I wish I could hear Syd Barrett do the Eagles...
	5:06pm Mike East: wow, this is so much better than the original
	5:09pm glenn: can we hear the stampeders now?
	👻 5:10pm rrg: No CanCon requirements here, Glenn. Thank goodness.
	5:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'not that bad - just - not in my universe...she found the soul' - ✔
	5:11pm glenn: for the most part i agree, but how can you not love sweet city woman?
	👻 5:13pm rrg: I guess. I remember a French language cover of "Sweet City Woman" that played in Montreal in the early 1970s. I may be the only one who remembers that.
	👻 5:13pm rrg: THESE guys again. Very good.
	5:14pm Mark in DC: Thanks Irwin, Eagles don't exist in my universe either, but I can never say it because I hurt peoples' feelings.
	👻 5:14pm rrg: Klay (rhymes with "high") Family Band. I remember.
	5:14pm fleep: @rrg This cover? www.youtube.com...
	👻 5:15pm Alison Porchnik: We need to hear more of Megan Jean!!!!
	5:15pm glenn: this one? www.45cat.com...
	5:16pm glenn: huh. it's really good.
	5:16pm Carmichael: I feel about the same way the Big Lebowski does. I heard a word yesterday that immediately reminded me of last week's grammar rant on this board: "Futherance".
	👻 5:17pm rrg: If I can find the audio I'll let you know. But, probably--but for some reason I thought it was actually a cover by someone else, and not just The Stampeders themselves being politically correct (though I don't think that was the phrase in use at the time).
	5:17pm Santos L Halper: Listening on my phone; after that set ended i went to open up laptop to read some comments but found an error message:"You are not connected to the internet" There are no coincidences
	👻 5:18pm rrg: Wait, there's a link! "Listen to this record." What?
	5:18pm glenn: ummm, i think they were covering all their bases, sales wise.
	👻 5:18pm rrg: But I can't listen now. I'm listening to this program on WFMU.
	5:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Financially Correct...
	👻 5:19pm rrg: Oh, the link doesn't work anyway. Just an Amazon link.
	5:19pm dale: lisa germano reminds me of linda perry and i just checked - NO ONE HAS EVER PLAYED LINDA PERRY ON THIS STATION. sad. in flight is an awesome album
	5:20pm Droll: That is where the term "cover song" comes from: covering different markets. Originally it was white artists playing "Race Records" to cover both markets.
	5:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - DawgDayBugIt !!
	👻 5:22pm rrg: Yes, fleep and Glenn and Droll and all: that's the song, and I sit corrected about "cover" versions and, well, everything. Just everything. All right?
	5:23pm Carmichael: Filthy hippies, slackjawed yokels, pop stars and fake Floyd. Irwin's show, in other words.
	5:24pm glenn: i never had any idea they did it in french, so i had zero beef. thanks for pointing me in that direction.
	👻 5:25pm Alison Porchnik: I really love this.
	5:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I feel like I'm listening to Hearty's show now...after rolling an R...
	5:27pm Carmichael: Komm Gib Mir Deine Stampeders.
	👻 5:27pm rrg: Does anyone here remember "Underneath My Pillow" by "Bubbles and Co."? From the 1960s? I used to have that single, don't anymore, and have been looking for it for years.
	5:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: OuiOuiOui !
	👻 5:28pm rrg: I ask since we're all here today.
	5:28pm djelrock: This is Genius!
	5:28pm earrie: "It's sorta the head head." Ha
	5:30pm Irwin: Hard to find an exit strategy for Ivy & the Wicker Suitcase. It's all great.
	👻 5:30pm rrg: ivyandthewickersuitcase.com
	5:31pm Mike: aWSOME STUFF
	5:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - & great for 'radio' - what a Production...
	👻 5:33pm rrg: $30 including the book and CD.
	5:34pm InBrkly: Come as you are?
	5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - no - the other Greatest Artist of my age group...
	5:35pm InBrkly: sometimes I wish you could unsubmit a comment but I guess that defeats live chat.
	5:36pm KP: Great Buckley
	5:36pm !.!: irwon#2 welime to fmu u r welcom here n we luv u n luv u musoc,,,,!!!!
	5:37pm !.!: @rrg: no i do not have that, but will llook
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - bah! - just do it enuff InBrkly & no one pays attention - trust me on this...
	5:39pm InBrkly: Heh i thought that but then a couple of times the DJ read my comment. Instead of a moment of pride I was embarassed.
	👻 5:41pm rrg: "Embarrassed"
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...we're gonna find ya man - & en masse we're gonna point @ you & go 'neener neener' - !!...then all buy ya a beer...
	5:43pm InBrkly: <facepalm>
	5:45pm Droll: rrg, Well played, sir.
	5:46pm Ike: Due to inclement English language conditions caused by a commenter, please prepare for imminent exploding brains of editors. Gory spatter from exploded brains may be slippery. Tread carefully. We will not be liable if you slip and fall on the gore. Only !.! will be liable. Don't sue us.
	5:47pm KP: Love Iris. Great show
	👻 5:47pm rrg: Holy cow. Have I ever heard Iris DeMent played on Irwin's show before? Can't remember. Her voice is so odd, but I've always loved it. Thanks for the reminder.
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...may Iris DeMent in one ear & Blossom Dearie in the other guide me to my Sleep...
	5:48pm Carmichael: Irwin has found his inner Okie today.
	5:48pm KP: Re: I liked that film about him, basically because it was mostly music, and because it mentions Fmu
	5:49pm Mike: http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/171103142138?lpid=82
	5:49pm Nanker de Tucson: Knew this was Iris D within the 1st measure
	5:49pm KP: Re: Buckley
	5:49pm dale: tom rush - bout time
	👻 5:49pm rrg: I saw her open once at Carnegie Hall for someone else. She was better.
	5:50pm glenn: excellent.
	5:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...she writes real good too...
	5:50pm andaloudog: Thanks for playing Tom, especially this one.
	5:50pm Pete the Flicker: This is the first Iris Dement song I ever heard twenty something years ago and it melted my heart. What a great choice to play Irwin. Thanks for the memories!
	5:51pm dale: this and a childs song and driving wheel are just stellar.
	5:51pm Laura L: Speaking of unusual voices, you could play Jimmie Dale Gilmore sometime... "Midnight Train" from the album "After Awhile" for instance.
	5:52pm KP: Winter closing in
	5:52pm Parq: I've clicky-starred the Rush, because it really is a favorite, but I agree that the DeMent was wonderful.
	👻 5:52pm rrg: There you go again, Irwin. You won't play Joni's version of this song (perhaps my favorite recording of hers) but you keep playing Tom Rush's version. Which I also like. But, well.
	5:53pm dale: what does clicky starring do?
	👻 5:54pm rrg: It means people can see what you clicky-starred.
	5:54pm dale: do i win prizes?
	5:55pm Droll: What does looking to see who clicked do?
	5:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - it makes you feel like your opinion matters - when in fact it's totally inconsequential...if it wasn't, they'd stop me...
	👻 5:56pm rrg: Iris opened for Nanci Griffith. On whom I've soured for some reason. I need to introspect about that.
	5:56pm Parq: This Neil Dick is what Ira Kaplan would sound like if he didn't have talent.
	👻 5:57pm rrg: Hey. It's almost 18:00. WTF?
	5:57pm Mike East: the only function it serves (as far as I can tell) is that if you hear a song you like, you click a star. Then when you want to remember what songs you heard and liked, you can go back and see. When you click on the songs in your clicky catalogue, it links you back to the playlist where you found them and you can easily play that track in the archive, as long as its time stamped.
	5:57pm jan: Neil Dick snapped me back from the Tom Rush revery. What a segue!
	5:57pm Listening Out There: Incorrect Music 2001 is The Future
	5:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @rrg - that may be an exmple of opener & headliner being too close - too much the same - for comfort...
	5:57pm Carmichael: Jimmie Dale's voice drives me batty. Same with Victoria Williams.
	👻 5:58pm rrg: Thanks for a fine program, Irwin. The only thing that can follow that is...dinner. Bye, all.
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it's neat-o when you see stuff you ☆ed come up already ☆ed in a new Playlist: It let's you know that DJ is not so original...
	👻 5:59pm rrg: Nanci claimed to have discovered Iris, I think.
	9:37am billybumpus: how much do you have to pledge to get a sweet t-shirt?
	12:51pm Van in DC: Oh hi. Kimbra.... did you see this live performance by her? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6i1mr9amqeg
