Hello and hold tight, i'm hearing the lack of show through our radio here
dan Cochrane 12:04:55 PM
No worries, is this The Meters filling in?
Brian D 12:04:58 PM
Lakov Tscho.
dan Cochrane 12:05:41 PM
Brian! You old m- diver! How r u
Brian D 12:06:36 PM
This is a Finnish Funk group Calypso King and the Soul Serenaders that backed up Nicole Willis and others. Ma Gee is the song. WPRB defaults to a loop of it during tech difficulties
dan Cochrane 12:06:44 PM
God I hate The Muppets
Brian D 12:06:45 PM
That was...
dan Cochrane 12:07:21 PM
Now we’re talking…
dan Cochrane 12:08:04 PM
Outtakes from forbidden planet
deirdre dionysiac (host) 12:09:35 PM
We DJs and transmitters alike are creatures of habit it seems, habits were briefly upended. Here goes!
dan Cochrane 12:10:14 PM
We trust you for the journey
Brian D 12:22:42 PM
Ha! You find the gems Deirdre. Lots o laffs. Tommy's delivery is a bit like the Steve Martin stand-up comedy lps of this era
Brian D 12:23:53 PM
Gary Wilson, Steve Martin walk into Gene and Dean Ween's middle school typing class not a bar....
deirdre dionysiac (host) 12:25:22 PM
Tommy's a champ. Unknown backing/touring musicians for big artists who have secret side projects always produce the goods
deirdre dionysiac (host) 12:25:43 PM
He played for Bryan Adams and Dire Straits, which is quite the combo
Brian D 12:25:43 PM
Is he available for weddings?
deirdre dionysiac (host) 12:26:18 PM
I'd choose him! Now a theatre director at Sarah Lawrence College
Brian D 12:27:00 PM
What an lp cover... spiritual statues flank the hall of upside down pastry or some such
Brian D 12:30:45 PM
As always each week... each lp cover art image just gets better than the last
Brian D 12:37:52 PM
EXCELLENT HERE!
Brian D 12:44:26 PM
Nothin like a WPRB segue... my parents played this song a ton (from a double lp collection of Marty Robbins hits).
deirdre dionysiac (host) 12:44:52 PM
the desert sees both joys and sorrows
Mike Lupica 12:45:26 PM
This is one of my favorite Marty Robbins tunes, but as I always say about him -- no matter how happy his songs start out, by the end of the first verse, you're always thinking: "This isn't gonna end well"...
Brian D 12:46:54 PM
yep from desert to desert
deirdre dionysiac (host) 12:47:11 PM
for a brief moment this morning i had a gas bubble and convinced myself it was a kidney stone, so i feel i understand this song now
Brian D 12:47:24 PM
Heard Marty first and when I heard it at the Dead shows I new every word Bobby was singing.
Brian D 1:00:37 PM
Classic off beat lp the Biff
Brian D 1:09:33 PM
Mike L re Marty R: Streets of Laredo same deal... Oh he's setting up the scene nicely, there's that guy on the street ...but oohhh that doesn't sound good, not going to end well... There is a Charlie's Angels episode with a clip of that ep's victim, some fictitious young country singer doing her version of Streets of Laredo. I watched it when it aired or in reruns and once again.. ... HEY I KNOW THAT SONG! Thanks mom n dad
Brian D 1:11:47 PM
just "nahnt" - if it ends in just an S or just a consonant then most often the end of the word is not pronounced
deirdre dionysiac (host) 1:14:39 PM
must be close to boston
Ossy 1:25:03 PM
afternoon dei
deirdre dionysiac (host) 1:26:39 PM
welcome!
Brian D 1:35:26 PM
Gunter piece here is beauty
deirdre dionysiac (host) 1:36:01 PM
Adapted from a piano piece
Brian D 1:39:47 PM
Yep. Isaac Albeniz, a name familiar to anyone that had classical guitar books including yours truly. Some beautiful transcriptions for guitar from his works.
Brian D 1:41:20 PM
Love that Bert and Ernie at the beach pic btw. Great childhood memories all fuzed
deirdre dionysiac (host) 1:42:06 PM
Wanted it to look like they were living inside the piece of agate
Brian D 1:43:12 PM
HA! It looks to me like one of the sides of a photo cube.
deirdre dionysiac (host) 1:47:06 PM
That wouldn't be a bad idea for me, as someone who neglects to take photos. I could just decorate my house with bert and ernie having fun in different places and scenarios where i might have been
Brian D 1:50:21 PM
I heard London Bridge is falling down there with their wonderful accents
deirdre dionysiac (host) 1:51:58 PM
Little elitists, they just had to go sounding cooler than us didn't they
Brian D 1:56:02 PM
bop cat is still alive
Brian D 1:59:02 PM
ahem.... mah-YORK-ah
deirdre dionysiac (host) 2:02:18 PM
lol, i forget what i said but i'm sure it produced cringing in the area
Brian D 2:09:30 PM
double LL = Y sound
deirdre dionysiac (host) 2:10:48 PM
Heat of the playlist readoff mistake. Miss Barbara would be ashamed of me right now
Ossy 2:12:31 PM
this is so nice
deirdre dionysiac (host) 2:15:09 PM
I know, it comes from a label that was in the suburban county i grew up in, so feels like home too
Richard of Rocky Hill 2:17:08 PM
@ deirdre dionysiac (host) I always love your shows, and the keyboard-featured selections today are especially nice ... and even cooling!
Brian D 2:18:37 PM
Is that billiards break shots in the background ha
deirdre dionysiac (host) 2:19:12 PM
last week we had a tennis match happening in the background of a song, what's next
deirdre dionysiac (host) 2:19:23 PM
Great to hear from you RRH!
Brian D 2:28:11 PM
right down the road from my growin up home as well. ben slalom, pa. beautiful Thai temple there.
Guelo <3 2:29:05 PM
Been so nice listening on my prep shift. Only one in the kitchen vibing out. Kinda felt like I was a Wii character on that last set…
Guelo <3 2:29:27 PM
A Mii who found some of that GOOD stuff
Brian D 2:30:20 PM
Check out the market days at Thai Temple Sundays. Every month or so. Good eats. Tote home a large galangal root or Thai basil plant etc...
deirdre dionysiac (host) 2:30:30 PM
This show were made for empty kitchens
Ossy 2:30:54 PM
yeah, felt like n64 music like in mario and zelda
deirdre dionysiac (host) 2:30:59 PM
Didn't know that, i just might
deirdre dionysiac (host) 2:31:07 PM
Familiar with the temple from driving by
Brian D 2:57:25 PM
Great show Deirdre!
deirdre dionysiac (host) 2:57:57 PM
thanks Brian
