With Readie Righteous

Shake off the week, oh Righteous Ones! It's everything from Acid-Folk to Ziglibithy. Light the candles, drape your scarves; this is your time! I bring thee ambient, Afrobeat, international, Tuareg, Tuvan throat singing, queercore, gnawa, pop, disco, post-punk, jazz, soul, R 'n' B, obit-core and more. Opportunistic singing-along with your DJ is de rigeur. Your lagniappe: historical perspective, social consciousness, irreverence.

Sub-a-Dubbin' for DJ Fankie!

Hi Readie & fellow Righteous Nowhere-Dwellers! Happy New year! So we've gotten over 12" of snow on Saturday/Sunday, and we're supposed to get a torrential 2-3" of rain and balmy rising temps overnight. HOWEVER -- the prequel was supposed to be a snowfall non-event -- but AU CONTRAIRE: the flakes are coming down fast and furious and I was out driving Max around on rural fast-disappearing roads! OY!!! But what got me through it without losing my cool was YOUR DELIRIOUSLY WONDERFUL SUB-SHOW!!! (-:
Readie Righteous (host) 5:57:48 PM
@BHMok, Russian surf-rock, eh? I will have to check them out
Readie Righteous (host) 6:00:12 PM
@Teresa 🥰 Oh my! so much snow! I kinda wish we got some here, and now you are getting more!?! I AM GLAD YOU & MAX ARE SAFE AND SOUND!!!
Readie Righteous (host) 6:01:31 PM
Still rain here...and by 3:00 am it will be about 60 degrees...
Readie Righteous (host) 6:02:12 PM
@Teresa - so good to hear from you- thanks for your sweet words!
Teresa Peacock 6:12:50 PM
Accuweather has predicted an average of a significant snowstorm every week into February so my hope is that the mid-Atlantic eastern seaboard will get with the program, and are off to their usual slow start... When we lived in NJ & NYC, that seemed to be the pattern. I'm with you -- I LOVE snowy winters (even if my Kia is decidedly NOT good in the snow... ). Sending snowy vibes in your direction!
TAndy 6:14:27 PM
I've been hearring the same consensus from hobby METS. Mid/late Januarry inti February will look better for snow, and the current pattern is expected. Just warmer.
Readie Righteous (host) 6:14:51 PM
@Teresa- thanks so much! It's been a couple of years! I miss thst glittery soft hushed landscape of snow....
TAndy 6:15:01 PM
If this current storm system were met with different dynamics ahead of it, we'd probably have been seeing a blizzard for the ages tonight
Readie Righteous (host) 6:16:19 PM
@TAndy- I hear you! it's getting so warm! Despite the sleighbells in this Les McCann joint, there is no hope of snow tonight!
TAndy 6:16:50 PM
If this is a sign of things to come for the spring, though, the blooms are going to be gorgeous
Readie Righteous (host) 6:19:09 PM
@TAndy- I hope you are right..and that there is no blom, frost die scenario!
Ambrose Hughes (1) 6:19:54 PM
Evenin' Readie!🌧☔
Readie Righteous (host) 6:21:14 PM
Hey Bo!
Teresa Peacock 6:21:39 PM
@TAndy -- the prolonged springtime gorgeousness is something I sorely miss here in southern NE. The greater Princeton/Pennington/Hopewell etc. area blooms were both cheerfully and achingly beautiful {*swoon*}.
Readie Righteous (host) 6:22:04 PM
How goes it, Bo!?!?
Ambrose Hughes (1) 6:23:04 PM
@Readie, high 'n dry, enjoying the cool tunes.
Readie Righteous (host) 6:23:05 PM
@Teresa - so true! The blossoming trees in Princeton - sublime!
Readie Righteous (host) 6:25:15 PM
Glad to hear it, Bo! Glad to have you on board!
Big Head Mok 6:40:18 PM

Big Head Mok 6:45:36 PM
I need to put together a barbershop quartet that sings Slayer
Readie Righteous (host) 6:46:50 PM
Yes, Mok- and I would like to hear that - nothing like close harmonies!! in any genre!
Readie Righteous (host) 6:50:58 PM
Frank and Gail Zappa signed the Persuasions to their first record deal in 1969, and they made the album as a tribute to Zappa for discovering them
Big Head Mok 6:51:57 PM
that is awesome. Frank was such a genius.
Readie Righteous (host) 6:53:19 PM
Indeed, Mok
Big Head Mok 6:55:46 PM
I am fascinated with doo wop (thanks to my father) so I get it.
Readie Righteous (host) 6:56:51 PM
@BHMok- was your dad a singer?
Big Head Mok 6:58:26 PM
he was not but I was inundated with it on many a car ride. How can you not fall in love with it?
Readie Righteous (host) 6:59:08 PM
I know, right? It's infectious energy!!!
TAndy 7:00:45 PM
that id is so legendary
TAndy 7:00:51 PM
