Hi Brian- Marvin had set up 5 hours for his show, as he had originally planned...Lenca & I show up on the extreme right-hand side of the block schedule...
DJ Readie 10:11:12 AM
Amen, Brian!
DJ Readie 10:11:35 AM
Those who wish to engage SHALL NOT BE THWARTED!
DJ Readie 10:12:51 AM
Correct, do not know how that could be remedied...
DJ Readie 10:13:44 AM
Interesting...prob accounts for the low chatters count
DJ Readie 10:15:00 AM
Gotcha, Brian D...
DJ Readie 10:16:13 AM

Ossy 10:18:36 AM
Erykah Badu and Macy Gray vibes
Richard from Rocky Hill 10:18:41 AM
@ DJ Readie Nice vibes, indeed! Thanks Readie and Lenca for covering Marvin's slot. Your classic DJing styles make for their own "Classical Discovery" this morning. :-))
Lenca (host) 10:19:17 AM
happy to be hear :)
DJ Readie 10:19:31 AM
@Richard D- thanks, Richard!
Brian D 10:20:08 AM
Yes beautiful sounds this am Lenca!
Richard from Rocky Hill 10:23:03 AM
@ @ Lenca (host) That "Loa Chant" by Mop Mop with Sara Sayed and now Web Web's "iMeskel Flowers" with Mulatu Atatke are lovely bits of "exotica," a much over-looked and under-enjoyed genre these days. Thanks for playing them. .
Lenca (host) 10:30:33 AM
Oh cool! Wasn't aware of that label for this genre. thanks for listening :)
Brian D 10:40:50 AM
So many great sounds today!
Brian D 10:59:23 AM
Reading about that artist Zeb The Spy from Cairo (performing Fanaa from the lp Animamundi). Wow. He plays a lot of instruments!

Lenca (host) 11:00:39 AM
oh wow, that's crazy impressive
Brian D 11:01:20 AM
Here's the correct lp sorry... bandcamp not cooperating with their hard to follow discography links...

Hi Lenca, great music this morning. Thanks!
Ossy 11:05:32 AM

Richard from Rocky Hill 11:27:39 AM
@ Lenca (host) I agree with so many other listeners this morning -- it's a killer great playlist. Very transporting (while I'm at my desk, working on catch-up ...).
Lenca (host) 11:30:54 AM
Yaaay! Thank u!! The energy in the chat was definitely inspiring
Ossy 11:33:03 AM
Especially the old school 80s african-american funk that philly commercial stations predominantly play!
Amy Lee 11:34:47 AM
Just tuning in & agree. Good Roller skating music too.
Ossy 11:38:15 AM
Has me thinking of Vaughn's Roller Skating hip hop funk song
Brian D 11:46:32 AM
Odetta!
Richard from Rocky Hill 11:55:07 AM
@ Brian D Odetta was one of _the_ all-time great American folksingers. And she did a good amount of TV and movie acting, too.
Richard from Rocky Hill 11:55:51 AM
@ Brian D I'm sure she's delighted on high that she has fans like you & me.
Lenca (host) 11:59:21 AM
Thanks everyone for your nice comments and fun facts about the music! Have a good rest of your day
