Desert Cruising Mon May 20 with Doctor Ahab on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

let's gooooooo

I think there's someone in Alberta too.

@ Captain Ahab (host) Anatolia us nowwww !!! Sad that it's your 2nd-to-last regularly scheduled on WPRB, but all the sweeter and more treasured because it's the penultimate Desert Cruising. Thanks for so much!

Thanks Richard!

Aye Cap'n, 'tis been a journey.

oh cool Mike I'll have to peek at their playlists

cheers Jim :)

I was kidding!

Yiu are unique!

d'oh!

Captain, thank you so much for all the Cruising! Had to pull over to make sure I get a goodbye in. Good luck with everything!!

Hi Captain Ahab! I am so sad my favorite WPRB show is coming to an end 😢 But I am definitely excited to hear your new show in future as DOCTOR AHAB!!

thank you DSM <3

aww thanks Debbie!

I've had to make a couple personal goodbyes and farewells recently, and I never feel that I do it correctly, but I usually just give free expression of my emotions. Your show, the space and community it creates, and you are a special part of my soul. I can't adequately express my gratitude. Sorry if I'm too over the top, it's how I roll.

Who brought onions into my office :'(

Thank you Mike, you all and this community are the main reason I ever put these shows together

It was and remains one of the best things I've ever done in my life, and it's going to continue for sure

Hello and Big Cheers to DJ Captain Ahab! Excited for Anatolian Hour(s)!

Morning Mr M!

"and it's going to continue for sure"...that makes me happy.

This is JUST THE BEGINNING

I am older and wiser now, I have big plans for Desert Cruising Phase 2: Professor Edition mwahahaha

not wise, just wiser :P

Everything about that is Awesome! Desert Cruising: Professor Edition❣️

Great selections to start the show!

Forgot to join the chat and say "I'm listening" but here I am listening while databasing. Will miss this show very much!

hi Jon, thanks for dropping by!

I'm downright locked in!

@ Jon Solomon Me too! All the tracks have been outstanding this morning (as usual), and the last one Ersen ve Dadaşlar's "Yedin Beni" was truly stunning. My, my ...

Oh no :( say it ain't so. the final dessert cruise 3

@ TAndy The second to last, I believe.

correct, next week is the last :(

Oh joy. One more week!! Lesgoooooo

The last one, Moğollar's "Haliç'te Güneşin Batışı" sounded instrumentally _very_ Doors-ian. Released in 1970, at a peak of The Doors' career, before Jim Morrison's death, so the time period is right. Or maybe The Doors were actually rather anatolian ...?

This Selda jam is a JAM.

this one's always a crowd pleaser

SELDA BAĞCAN 💖

This show is a crowd pleaser‼️ Stay brilliant, DJ Captain Ahab‼️

thanks Mr M!

@ Captain Ahab (host) Thanks for revealing the plot of the song in which a young auto mechanic has no hope of impressing a wealthy beautful female customer. Reminds me of the premise of a 2007 hit by country star Toby Keith, in which a young all-around repair guy at a very upscale garden condo complex is smitten by a new arrival, a beautiful high-class woman. But the fellow is forced to admit (in the song's refrain and title) that "A high-maintence woman don't need no maintenance man!"

Lol love that line

@ Captain Ahab (host) Me too! That's wonderful about so many modern country hits -- they invariably have a killer "hook" that usually also serves as the song's refrain and title. Another example: "I Know What I Was Feeling (But What Was I Thinking?)" Probably similar for lots of pop music aroujnd the globe.

Thanks for all these deep dives in Anatolian rock, Cap’n

cheers friends, thanks for tuning in as ever

This must continue in some form, everything so far is so 60's and 70's focused. I need to hear how these sounds evolved.

That said, once again and always, immeasurable thanks to our curator, Professor Dr. Captain Ahab.

Thank you Mike <3
