WFMU: Strength Through Failure with Fabio: Playlist from March 26, 2015

Listener comments!
	3:05pm Polyus: How many people thought today's show would begin with the Hoof & Mouth rendition of Mr. Giant Man?
	3:05pm Sem Chumbo: Mr. Giant Man never fails to make me laugh.
	3:06pm Listener Robert: I was a little disappointed at Hoof & Mouth for their not acting it out better. There should've been a particular dancer to be pointed to to go w the line, "YOU can dance in double time."

	3:12pm sphere: guess not lol
	3:14pm Guido from Cologne: Hello everybody!
	3:15pm DCE: BB King might be the last musician I'd expect to hear in something like this...but, everyone can certainly sample anyone!
	3:16pm DCE: slap a big ol' scoop a that failure right on my plate, Fabio
	3:16pm redkayak: Hi all!
	3:17pm Ike: Hello, tasty humans. Errr, I mean, fellow humans....
	3:18pm DCE: nobody in the neighboring cube for a change. I feel much free-er today.
	3:21pm Rich in Washington: Me too, DCE! Listening to Fabio sans headphones today.
	3:26pm Chris from DC: Th'Expo!
	👻 3:27pm Rev. Turnip Druid: What th'Toad Th'd!
	3:29pm Mutant: Drone-y today - I like
	3:31pm Ike: Hey, that commenter Rev. Turnip Druid (a.k.a. C. Hawkins) is playing a free show at someplace called Earwax Records in Hipsterburg on Sat. afternoon. At, uh, 3:00? Is that right, Rev.?
	3:31pm bloopy: RIP John Renbourn :(
	3:32pm tomasz.: party time in Giant Land
	3:33pm DCE: ah geez bloopy that is bad news
	3:35pm common: yez
	👻 3:43pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Ike speaks truth!
	3:44pm steve: i might go Ike!
	3:45pm common: wish i could attend, rev! love your muzak!
	3:46pm Serpico: muzak :3
	3:47pm Serpico: what is "hipsterberg?" XD williamsberg?
	👻 3:49pm Rev. Turnip Druid: WHOA! Th'motherlode! www.youtube.com...
	3:50pm DCE: I think you nailed it Serpico
	3:51pm Serpico: yay!! haha :D
	👻 3:52pm Rev. Turnip Druid: also: Bloopy @ 3:31 -- rats. 70 is too young to leave the company. I'll have to spin Basket of Light this eve...
	3:52pm Serpico: also nice find Rev. Turnip Druid!
	3:59pm Guido from Cologne: Some musicians from the Seattle scene one might not expect worked at MUZAK (not necessarily as musicians). Such as Mark Arm of Mudhoney.
	4:00pm DCE: Touch Me I'm Sick would sound great in a grocery store
	4:03pm Guido from Cologne: Well anyway, they made it to the Space Needle, cannot say about the elevator there.
	4:06pm Polyus: Last time I was in NYC, I stayed in the vicinity of Earwax - have to admit, it's a very convenient area to base yourself in if you're just visiting.
	4:16pm Guido from Cologne: Carol Kaye was a bit upset about the Title "Wrecking Crew", saying they were never called like this. If there was a moniker, it was "The Clique".
	4:16pm Uncle Michael: It was the music clearances that took so damned long.
	4:18pm steve: four flies on gray velvet? what!? never even heard of that Argento film.
	4:18pm rw: I have a friend who is something of a Muzak connoisseur. It's been a while but I think I remember him telling me that the version made for offices is sequenced to coincide with the ups and downs of a typical work day. Hence the term, "Stimulus Progression".
	4:21pm Guido from Cologne: by very chance I own Stimulus Progression Vol. One (www.discogs.com...). The LP seems to be more of a demo about the services they do for companies.
	4:22pm Guido from Cologne: Guess this is for Alice Coltrane.
	4:26pm rw: Developed in the 1960s, Muzak’s “Stimulus Code” is based on an hourly cycle of gradually changing intensity that climaxes every fifteen minutes while purporting to reenergize human activity. From this article: http://www.cabinetmagazine.org/issues/7/min.php
	4:27pm fred: @rw: wait, there are "ups" in a typical work day?
	4:27pm fleep: Climaxing every fifteen minutes is gonna cause some chafing.
	4:29pm Guido from Cologne: I doubt it was anything but a sales argument.
	4:30pm Guido from Cologne: ... i doubt if it was ...
	4:31pm rw: fred, fleep and Guido, I think you're all probably right!
	4:33pm Jherweg: Some Building exploded in the east village. It's inanity, don't go below 14th street.
	4:34pm Cecile: awesome. Love crazy era Gato.
	4:36pm G: at 7th street and 2nd, explosions, building collapse, people being carried out on stretchers, stay west of broadway they say
	👻 4:36pm Rev. Turnip Druid: holy crap, no fooling. gothamist.com...
	4:36pm kirk from beer city usa: Is this the ESP disk Gato?
	4:37pm redkayak: This is fantastic...
	4:37pm tomasz.: CBS NY saying a gas explosion. looks pretty serious business
	4:39pm steve: thats terrifying, hope people are ok. mentally roledexing all friends who live/work over there...
	4:39pm coelacanth: hello Fabio and earthlings.
	👻 4:39pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Yeh, this is nuts. Sadly the only thing I have is Gato's LP with Don Cherry (which is brilliant, if less nuts)..
	4:40pm fleep: Live feed of fire (mute the audio, listen to Gato) 7online.com...
	4:41pm coelacanth: i think i don't know anyone down there now. still it's shitty.
	4:42pm tomasz.: the Gothamist piece notes that "there was a stop-work order on the property in 2004". can anyone explain the significance of this?
	4:46pm steve: tom - www.nyc.gov... not sure how one from 11 years ago is relevant but meant safety violations and the city told em to stop building/construction.
	4:47pm G: tomasz -- http://www.nyc.gov/html/dob/html/safety/stop_work_order.shtml that was ten years ago, so it may or may not have anything to do with today. any dirt will come out in the wash, i'm sure
	4:48pm V Priceless: Stop work order is issued by NYC Dept of Bldgs for any number of various unsafe conditions at a job site, usually.
	4:53pm Guido from Cologne: daevid Allen was on the first and only single of Soft Machine. The Georgio Gromelsky produced early demos with Deavid Allen are on the market in numberless packages for decades. Most of it is the same stuff as the first SoftMachine album.
	4:58pm V Priceless: Their's an early SM demos CD reissue on Decal from '89 with Daevid Allen. Thanks for this trib, Fabio!
	4:59pm V Priceless: There's. D'oh!
	5:00pm V Priceless: It's called 'the soft machine - jet propelled photographs' originally on Charly Records, London.
	5:03pm Guido from Cologne: There is a highly recommended "Space rock"-special issue of Shindig magazine. Hawkwind, a verty critical view on Gong regarding authorship and Allen heaving left the band for certain important months, BBC-workshop, Joe Meek and ... very good ... an article comparing "Black-Space-Myths" of Geoge Clinton and Sun Ra !
	5:03pm Cecile: terrifying. All my thoughts go out to the tenants of that building and the whole neighborhood.
	5:03pm Marcel M: Fabio!
	5:04pm Cecile: On the topic of Gato, I even like his nutty blowing sessions on Flying Dutchman. It might have had a bit of a pop element, but dude could blow.
	5:06pm V Priceless: @ Guido: I find the demo versions of the first SM record in many ways even cooler than the official release. Not surprising, given the magnatude of DA's talent mixed among the Wyatt, Ayers and Ratledge.
	5:08pm coelacanth: am i the only one whose playlist is not updating?
	5:09pm coelacanth: never mind!
	5:09pm Guido from Cologne: I find both incarnations of equal quality. And having heard both, you get an idea of the band getting more into jamming out the songs written by Kevyn Ayers. Some groundbreaking work. And the single is just fantastic. I wish thy made more of theese.
	5:10pm tomasz.: steve, G, V Priceless: cheers. that's pretty much what i inferred it would be, in which case, i join you in being puzzled as to why they've mentioned this 11-year-old order in reference to this case. we shall see, i guess.
	5:10pm V Priceless: Agreed Guido.
	👻 5:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: sigh. Lovely set..
	5:13pm G: tomasz -- because internet. journalists can search the city public records database in one minute, and they find the old stop-work from 04. with a dramatic breaking story, they'll use anything till they have better info later :)
	5:14pm V Priceless: @ Tomasz: probably just got the violation history off the Dept of Bldgs public web-site.
	5:15pm dale: sooo, renbourn died today? i know that's not the theme of this show but i'll bet fabio likes pentangle
	5:15pm V Priceless: G is correct. I deal with Dept of Bldgs in my daily work, actually.
	5:17pm Cecile: oh, damn. Sorry to hear that dale. Really liked Basket of Light.
	5:17pm Stanley: Squeezing sponges over policemens' heads
	5:20pm dale: all the good ones are passing, and will with more frequency
	5:23pm I / k / e: Uh oh, I might have just gotten fired from my depressing job by my volcanic alien boss. He's going to try to deny UI too, and claim everything on the desk is his, incl. several FMU DJ premiums. Didn't know he was a fan of the station, ha ha. :P
	5:23pm V Priceless: Great set, Fabio!
	5:25pm Stepchild: Love Keith The Missile there
	5:27pm fred: @I / K / e: if one of those premiums is from Stan, that might just prove he was high
	5:32pm Guido from Cologne: www.theguardian.com...
	👻 5:33pm Rev. Turnip Druid: A top favorite gong track, this.
	5:33pm I / k / e: Ha ha, he could use it... OTOH such a thing might seriously crack his very tightly-wound $$$-obsessed brain. I doubt he could handle any reality where money isn't the be-all and end-all of life and the universe
	5:33pm Stanley: Yay my favourite Gong, thanks Fabio!
	5:34pm Stanley: ...if, if, I could only go back in time (sniff!)
	5:35pm Ike: Best song title all week!
	5:36pm Marcel M: Gotta smoke grass!
	5:36pm Marcel M: Love this part.
	5:37pm steve: i bet Clay would dig this
	👻 5:38pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Camebert Electrique = favorite Gong LP by far. Possibly sacrilege to the Teapot-trilogy people, but Camebert had the essence...
	5:38pm Sem Chumbo: I\ll bang a gong for ya, Stanley. It's not time travel per se, but in a pinch...
	👻 5:38pm Rev. Turnip Druid: essence o' space cheese....
	5:39pm tomasz.: I / k / e - sorry to hear this, pal. some bastards i worked for last decade did me the same way. Didn't even get to collect the stuff in my desk before i was escorted from the building. Luckily all that was there was work-related tat and a load of useless Secret Santa presents i accumulated over three years. good luck
	5:39pm fred: I only saw Daevid Allen twice: once with Gong and once in a James Harrar project with Rogier Smal and Marshall Allen (a Sun Ra related thing). The Gong show was fun, but the other one made me appreciate him more as a musician, without the showman part which didn't work for me.
	5:40pm Guido from Cologne: I'm befriended with what on occasions looks like our local clone of Gong (www.theabsurd.de) so I have no lack spacy-tea-pot of supply.
	👻 5:40pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Jeezus I/k/e -- that's a pain. Get thee to untold riches immediately.
	5:41pm V Priceless: Tony Coulter also did a nice little DA trib last week on the stream, sprinkled around the marathon.
	5:41pm Ike: @tomasz, thanks! Should've been more careful w/ my FMU swag....
	5:43pm fred: @RTD: I had to come up with a name for some software at work today. I punted to my boss, but was sorely tempted to call it Embert in tribute to Daevid. They like to prefix everything with their name, so that would have been IrcamEmbert. I did suggest Ember though, we'll see what happens
	5:43pm Guido from Cologne: Ah !!! The Soft Machine Demos!
	5:44pm Stepchild: yr Killing it Fabio!
	5:46pm Guido from Cologne: Fabio plays the hits!
	5:46pm V Priceless: Failure? I think not!
	5:47pm dale: guido - love that bit about gluing pieces of ping pong balls to his nails.
	5:47pm JakeGould: So who is “Ike” compared to non-logged in “Ike” and the man from “I/K/E”?
	5:49pm Guido from Cologne: Guitar !!!! There is a GUITAR !!!
	5:49pm tomasz.: you guys know Knifeworld? their mainman Kavus Torabi (also a former Cardiac) played guitar in the final Gong line-up. they're not as spacy but it's clearly in that vein. definitely worth checking out.
	5:50pm V Priceless: Ha Bowie Aladdin Sane! Clay you rule!
	5:52pm fred: If anyone has any idea as how to make "embert" as an acronym for a music analysis software, I'm all ears
	5:53pm tomasz.: "Neg zeest pah", pretty much
	5:53pm dale: michael something
	5:53pm tomasz.: Clay, that joke was awful. keep it up
	5:54pm fred: Michael Brown
	5:54pm Tusalava: NO, CLAY. NO
	5:55pm common: fabio and clay, my favorite time of the week!
	5:56pm Tusalava: It is. This is the best of radio. I want this laboratory melodrama to continue.
	5:57pm V Priceless: Climbing down a drain pipe, drunk, actually.
	5:57pm dale: they should conference call in hearty and then it would be a slam dunk.
	5:58pm Tusalava: Or Hearty can time travel in, with his umbrella and his hat.
	5:58pm fred: @dale: with Dave Emory as moderator
	5:59pm Tusalava: Oh! Yoko is delightful.
	6:00pm Tusalava: CALE!
	6:01pm V Priceless: No coke with Cale back then? Ha
	6:02pm Tusalava: I hope Clay does this for the next hour.
	👻 6:02pm Rev. Turnip Druid: KRILL!
	6:02pm Rory: This is amazing!
	6:03pm Mutant: Is he talking about the Coelacanth?
	6:03pm dale: i'm trippin'! or he is!
	6:04pm V Priceless: Oh this is gold
	6:04pm tomasz.: amazing
	6:05pm Marcel M: Woah baby
	6:05pm Tusalava: this is genius
	6:05pm Uncle Michael: Elvin bishop ain't good looking but he sure can
	6:05pm Rocco: I would of pledged if this what Clay did
	6:06pm steve: how is this happening
	6:06pm Rory: Wow!
	6:06pm Guido from Cologne: ! ! ! !
	6:06pm dale: that wasn't scripted? whoa.
	11:30am Minky: Awesome show, Fabio! Thanks!!!

	5:10pm tomasz.: steve, G, V Priceless: cheers. that's pretty much what i inferred it would be, in which case, i join you in being puzzled as to why they've mentioned this 11-year-old order in reference to this case. we shall see, i guess.
	5:10pm V Priceless: Agreed Guido.
	👻 5:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: sigh. Lovely set..
	5:13pm G: tomasz -- because internet. journalists can search the city public records database in one minute, and they find the old stop-work from 04. with a dramatic breaking story, they'll use anything till they have better info later :)
	5:14pm V Priceless: @ Tomasz: probably just got the violation history off the Dept of Bldgs public web-site.
	5:15pm dale: sooo, renbourn died today? i know that's not the theme of this show but i'll bet fabio likes pentangle
	5:15pm V Priceless: G is correct. I deal with Dept of Bldgs in my daily work, actually.
	5:17pm Cecile: oh, damn. Sorry to hear that dale. Really liked Basket of Light.
	5:17pm Stanley: Squeezing sponges over policemens' heads
	5:20pm dale: all the good ones are passing, and will with more frequency
	5:23pm I / k / e: Uh oh, I might have just gotten fired from my depressing job by my volcanic alien boss. He's going to try to deny UI too, and claim everything on the desk is his, incl. several FMU DJ premiums. Didn't know he was a fan of the station, ha ha. :P
	5:23pm V Priceless: Great set, Fabio!
	5:25pm Stepchild: Love Keith The Missile there
	5:27pm fred: @I / K / e: if one of those premiums is from Stan, that might just prove he was high
	5:32pm Guido from Cologne: www.theguardian.com...
	👻 5:33pm Rev. Turnip Druid: A top favorite gong track, this.
	5:33pm I / k / e: Ha ha, he could use it... OTOH such a thing might seriously crack his very tightly-wound $$$-obsessed brain. I doubt he could handle any reality where money isn't the be-all and end-all of life and the universe
	5:33pm Stanley: Yay my favourite Gong, thanks Fabio!
	5:34pm Stanley: ...if, if, I could only go back in time (sniff!)
	5:35pm Ike: Best song title all week!
	5:36pm Marcel M: Gotta smoke grass!
	5:36pm Marcel M: Love this part.
	5:37pm steve: i bet Clay would dig this
	👻 5:38pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Camebert Electrique = favorite Gong LP by far. Possibly sacrilege to the Teapot-trilogy people, but Camebert had the essence...
	5:38pm Sem Chumbo: I\ll bang a gong for ya, Stanley. It's not time travel per se, but in a pinch...
	👻 5:38pm Rev. Turnip Druid: essence o' space cheese....
	5:39pm tomasz.: I / k / e - sorry to hear this, pal. some bastards i worked for last decade did me the same way. Didn't even get to collect the stuff in my desk before i was escorted from the building. Luckily all that was there was work-related tat and a load of useless Secret Santa presents i accumulated over three years. good luck
	5:39pm fred: I only saw Daevid Allen twice: once with Gong and once in a James Harrar project with Rogier Smal and Marshall Allen (a Sun Ra related thing). The Gong show was fun, but the other one made me appreciate him more as a musician, without the showman part which didn't work for me.
	5:40pm Guido from Cologne: I'm befriended with what on occasions looks like our local clone of Gong (www.theabsurd.de) so I have no lack spacy-tea-pot of supply.
	👻 5:40pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Jeezus I/k/e -- that's a pain. Get thee to untold riches immediately.
	5:41pm V Priceless: Tony Coulter also did a nice little DA trib last week on the stream, sprinkled around the marathon.
	5:41pm Ike: @tomasz, thanks! Should've been more careful w/ my FMU swag....
	5:43pm fred: @RTD: I had to come up with a name for some software at work today. I punted to my boss, but was sorely tempted to call it Embert in tribute to Daevid. They like to prefix everything with their name, so that would have been IrcamEmbert. I did suggest Ember though, we'll see what happens
	5:43pm Guido from Cologne: Ah !!! The Soft Machine Demos!
	5:44pm Stepchild: yr Killing it Fabio!
	5:46pm Guido from Cologne: Fabio plays the hits!
	5:46pm V Priceless: Failure? I think not!
	5:47pm dale: guido - love that bit about gluing pieces of ping pong balls to his nails.
	5:47pm JakeGould: So who is “Ike” compared to non-logged in “Ike” and the man from “I/K/E”?
	5:49pm Guido from Cologne: Guitar !!!! There is a GUITAR !!!
	5:49pm tomasz.: you guys know Knifeworld? their mainman Kavus Torabi (also a former Cardiac) played guitar in the final Gong line-up. they're not as spacy but it's clearly in that vein. definitely worth checking out.
	5:50pm V Priceless: Ha Bowie Aladdin Sane! Clay you rule!
	5:52pm fred: If anyone has any idea as how to make "embert" as an acronym for a music analysis software, I'm all ears
	5:53pm tomasz.: "Neg zeest pah", pretty much
	5:53pm dale: michael something
	5:53pm tomasz.: Clay, that joke was awful. keep it up
	5:54pm fred: Michael Brown
	5:54pm Tusalava: NO, CLAY. NO
	5:55pm common: fabio and clay, my favorite time of the week!
	5:56pm Tusalava: It is. This is the best of radio. I want this laboratory melodrama to continue.
	5:57pm V Priceless: Climbing down a drain pipe, drunk, actually.
	5:57pm dale: they should conference call in hearty and then it would be a slam dunk.
	5:58pm Tusalava: Or Hearty can time travel in, with his umbrella and his hat.
	5:58pm fred: @dale: with Dave Emory as moderator
	5:59pm Tusalava: Oh! Yoko is delightful.
	6:00pm Tusalava: CALE!
	6:01pm V Priceless: No coke with Cale back then? Ha
	6:02pm Tusalava: I hope Clay does this for the next hour.
	👻 6:02pm Rev. Turnip Druid: KRILL!
	6:02pm Rory: This is amazing!
	6:03pm Mutant: Is he talking about the Coelacanth?
	6:03pm dale: i'm trippin'! or he is!
	6:04pm V Priceless: Oh this is gold
	6:04pm tomasz.: amazing
	6:05pm Marcel M: Woah baby
	6:05pm Tusalava: this is genius
	6:05pm Uncle Michael: Elvin bishop ain't good looking but he sure can
	6:05pm Rocco: I would of pledged if this what Clay did
	6:06pm steve: how is this happening
	6:06pm Rory: Wow!
	6:06pm Guido from Cologne: ! ! ! !
	6:06pm dale: that wasn't scripted? whoa.
