Hello Ken, again ready to listen you!
Thanks for discovering Chris Mcgregor, I like alot to hear not conventional big band music.
How about some Globe Unity or London Composers orchestra?

Wed. 2/13/08 9:05am From: JJZ

So, I was listening to the Seven Second Delay podcast from last week this morning, and I have to admit, I quite like the really upbeat Ken.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:06am From: Listener Dave

Good morning Ken-
Is your vinyl still OK despite all the rain and snow? I remember there was an issue with flooding the last time we had this kind of crapstorm.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:06am From: Ken

Morning all. I quite like the upbeat Ken as well. Why oh why is he not here this AM? John from Oslo - it's really me!!

Wed. 2/13/08 9:08am From: Cubicle Carl

Last week's Seven Second Delay was great. I recommend everyone go to the archive's and give a listen.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:11am From: davidleeroth

I always enjoy Messer Chups.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:33am From: jonathan

GUIDE DOG GLEE CLUB!!!

Wed. 2/13/08 9:34am From: Listener Dave

Hurray for the dogs! And cheers to Uno for his big win!

Wed. 2/13/08 9:34am From: davidleeroth

no seriously! go watch Manufactured Landscapes!

Wed. 2/13/08 9:35am From: leanmeat

Some syncopated panting for this track would have been funkylicious

Wed. 2/13/08 9:36am From: Cane Nine

oh man, those dogs sold out too. They sound so mainstream on this new recording. I preferred them when they were still underground

Wed. 2/13/08 9:37am From: Mouth From The South

Sounds like a Republican Party debate.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:37am From: nEGATOR

aRE THE bEATLE BARKERS ON TOUR? i THINK i'D LIKE TO GET BACKSTAGE!

Wed. 2/13/08 9:37am From: JJZ

I wish it was more different dogs and not just pitch shifting.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:38am From: dei xhrist

What's next, some Meowy Cats? Who's that guy who took extended cat purrs and looped them a few years ago?

Wed. 2/13/08 9:40am From: Cubicle Carl

Actually, this does sound a little bit like a cat.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:40am From: seanh

wow, great track here. sounds like the vocals are traveling through a musical saw.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:41am From: Ken

I would play the Jingle Cats, but they've only recorded a Christmas record.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:42am From: Fi Line

Wait til Easter and play it backwards

Wed. 2/13/08 9:43am From: mike

wtf

Wed. 2/13/08 9:43am From: dei x

I hope the rest of Venus Fly Trap sounds this good. This is what I imagined Amy Winehouse sounded like when I first saw her in Bust magazine. Um, I still haven't heard her.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:45am From: Listener Dave

This could use a little David Lee and train whistle.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:48am From: Richard

Ken is this tATu thing "available"? Really great version.....

Wed. 2/13/08 9:49am From: Listener Dave

Awesome. Thanks.

How many days until the T.a.t.u. movie comes out?

Wed. 2/13/08 9:49am From: Lincoln Lawerence

Should have played the Meatmen version.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:49am From: Ken

Yep, you can download that tATu mix off the WFMU blog.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:49am From: dei x

Oh thanks Dave, now I keep mentally punctuating everything with WOOOOOOOOT. I must hum the chew chew charlie theme now.

Wed. 2/13/08 9:51am From: stucco toast

i love that slow grainy mp3 glitch sound.
there was a cmdline player in linux that was really good for that, i hacked up scripts to play random snippets .... can't really remember now

Wed. 2/13/08 9:51am From: Chris in Copenhagen

Just a hello.
Thanks for the tAtU - had completely forgotten that one!

Wed. 2/13/08 9:51am From: stupid

you're so cool

Wed. 2/13/08 9:54am From: Negator

Mr. Choo Choo Brain Mustafio!

Wed. 2/13/08 9:56am From: dei x

this dreary revisit to How Soon Is Now brings to mind the t-shirt I just saw: "I wish my lawn was emo so it would cut itself." Gosh I'm happy to have had a Smiths assholescence, before it was retro.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:06am From: Negator

Super-Bowl is next week? AWESOME! I love the food!

Wed. 2/13/08 10:06am From: -max-

How many times does Ken have to tell you people?! HE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE!

Wed. 2/13/08 10:07am From: Jeff M

Thanks -- somehow I'd managed to completely miss noticing the existence of Dictionaraoke. I *am* the scion and the inheritor of a social phobia.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:08am From: CHUCKY X

we follow him because he is irresponsible

Wed. 2/13/08 10:08am From: Freddy the Finger

The Master of Ceremonies' Bday is on Feb 18. I invite you all to bombard the station with happy birthday emails with very very large attachments. No viruses of course, just congratulatory messages that will make him feel wanted, and maybe their server will crash and the Master himself will have to roll out of bed to fix the problem.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:10am From: john from oslo

Good morning Sven! Nice show!

Wed. 2/13/08 10:22am From: johN

10 points for Dan Wilson! Thanks K man. Play some "My window cleaning days are over" and I'll come back and post up to 10,000 points.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:28am From: JJZ

I wouldn't mind an "All covers of Midnight Cowboy" show.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:29am From: Negator

Ken, will you please post this version of the Midnight Cowboy theme? Must have......

Wed. 2/13/08 10:30am From: north guinea hills

i second JJZ's request!

Wed. 2/13/08 10:30am From: Negator

I am obsessed with this song, Midnight Cowboy. I've got a band based around it's feeling. Oh, and the Meat Puppets.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:31am From: fern

MEAT PUPPETS! YAY!!! Thanks Uncle Ken!

Wed. 2/13/08 10:32am From: Ken

I'll post that version of Midnight Cowboy, but I'll put the link up here on this comment thread, later today. It's already an MP3 so I can do it quickly.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:33am From: Jeff M

Wed. 2/13/08 10:33am From: chris mantis waters

meat puppets ooo!!memories ..thanx!!

Wed. 2/13/08 10:34am From: Ken

Wow, thanks Jeff! See how fast that was!

Wed. 2/13/08 10:35am From: Jimmy Bell

Thanks for playing me!!!!!

Wed. 2/13/08 10:36am From: -max-

Jimmy Bell!! I can name that tune in ONE note!!! Thanks Ken!!!!

Wed. 2/13/08 10:37am From: Negator

Wow! Now that's service! I'll be pledging on your show again this year for sure. Shows I've pledged on in the past: Kenny G and Charlie. Look forward to it.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:38am From: Jeff M

You ask Ken for a song, and he goes BACK in time to 2005 and posts it for you. That's service.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:40am From: dei x

He is the station manager who all other station managers are candles against. And he's fireproof.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:41am From: Negator

Now if he could just sprinkle some of his ear crystals on my next bong hit, that would be $50

Wed. 2/13/08 10:43am From: JJZ

Happy Black Love Day, everyone.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:47am From: patrick

yeah led snoopelin!! we took two great things and made something even better, like chocolate and peanut butter!

Wed. 2/13/08 10:47am From: Listener Dave

Led Snoopelin. I like it.

Still waiting for the inevitable Amy Winehouse "Rehab"/Devo "Working In A Coal Mine" mashup.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:48am From: NEgator

SnooP, The remaining members of Zepp, and DLR SHOULD make a record...

Wed. 2/13/08 10:49am From: Jeff M

Still a few songs back... I've always wondered whether William Gibson got the phrase "meat puppet" from the band's name or vice versa. But now there's this Internet thing available, and the answer pops right up... the band was first.

Wed. 2/13/08 10:49am From: Ghengis Jung

Is William here?

Wed. 2/13/08 10:50am From: chris mantis waters

greece listen you ken!!thanx for show..check out something from greece ,is a diamond in my opinion http://www.myspace.com/boomstate

Wed. 2/13/08 10:56am From: -max-

William's not here, man. Dave's here, though...

Wed. 2/13/08 10:57am From: Charles

Thanks again for a Wednesday morning of great radio, Ken! I love Silver Apples.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:02am From: Ghengis Jung

I love Unidentified Artist!

Wed. 2/13/08 11:02am From: nEGATOR

This song reminds me I'm going to see Dengue Fever at the Black Cat on March 2 and then my band opens up for Blue Cheer in Raleigh March 3rd! What a weekend eh?

Wed. 2/13/08 11:02am From: crowe

i hope track 14 is long enuff to allow me to find my strobe light and hash pipe.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:04am From: Ike

Crowe?! I remember the days of Crowe. Those were awesome times, when giants roamed the, uh, studios.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:08am From: dei x

nEGATOR, you should come up and play NH with your all Midnight Cowboy set. Almost all the bars up here are cover bars and you'd get a half hour done before anyone realized it was the same song on repeat. Better add some Crowe at that point

Wed. 2/13/08 11:09am From: lonnie

wow ken, is this the original of the drum? i've always wondered who originally recorded this - i'm a big fan of the bongwater version. thanks a lot for playing this. how's bouts some bongwater/kramer stuff to go with it? a nice late '80s early '90s throwback for jersey

Wed. 2/13/08 11:16am From: Cubicle Carl

Last week's Seven Second Delay is time capsule material. Summed up the state of our world.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:17am From: johN

I really enjoyed SSD last week. A real live radio stunt show.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:17am From: john

oh yeah! Sweet Home FlorEEda

Wed. 2/13/08 11:19am From: lonnie

my brother and i have often debated the merits of this song - i always complained that it took the outlaws 12 minutes to accomplish what molly hatchet could do in 5

Wed. 2/13/08 11:23am From: Bubba

Southern Rock was never about efficiency... How many guitars did it take Hatchet/Outlaws/Skynyrd to achieve their results?

Wed. 2/13/08 11:25am From: Ben

I bet most of the fans of last week's 7SD are also fans of Kenny G...

Wed. 2/13/08 11:26am From: JJZ

I'm not finished with it, and it's kind of fun at times, but I mostly finding myself zoning out, just like I would had I actually been listening to it. So, it was successful in that regard.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:27am From: Nora

If only Andy Breckman knew how much he really had in common with Mr G....

Wed. 2/13/08 11:27am From: Sean Padilla

What an appropriate choice: Yoko really IS walking on this ice with the lawsuit she just filed against Lennon Murphy.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:27am From: Sean Padilla

*thin

Wed. 2/13/08 11:29am From: maria

Dammit KF!!! yer playin all killer songs today. getting the populace primed for the m'thon hmm? As for Andy, fer the love of g*d I missed last weeks show.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:31am From: vics wife

is vik there

Wed. 2/13/08 11:35am From: Jeff M

My favorite Kenny G show was when he decided his concept was to gradually turn down the output level, just a little bit at a time, through the whole show... but what he hadn't counted on was that the station's compressor compensated for it, so he was just playing a straight show of... I forget, probably some sort of mainstream music. Hoist by his own kennytard.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:38am From: Ken

hah! Jeff, I remember that. It was a Led Zeppelin record. My favorite Kenny G show was the three hours of weather reports and the tax code show. Although I wouldn't want to relive either one. Kenny will be my marathon co-host two weeks from today, Bronwyn will be my co-host three weeks from today.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:40am From: Listener Dave

Ken and Kenny G? Now I know which show gets my pledge. Excellent.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:41am From: Ben

I can't talk about my favorite Kenny G show. No one could!

Oh for an mp3 of that show!

Wed. 2/13/08 11:45am From: jonathan

mine was the pete and repeat thing. i must be insane.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:47am From: Ben

Please call Stella. Ask her to bring these things with her from the store: Six spoons of fresh snow peas, five thick slabs of blue cheese, and maybe a snack for her brother Bob. We also need a small plastic snake and a big toy frog for the kids. She can scoop these things into three red bags, and we will go meet her Wednesday at the train station.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:49am From: Sean Daily

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!

Wed. 2/13/08 11:49am From: Listener Dave from NH

Ben, do you mean the show that got him yoinked off the air a couple of years back?
I still have no idea what happened there. That, Diane Kamikaze's suspension-inducing show and the 7SD where people reveal how they'd get away with murder with the tactic so fiendishly airtight that the law enforcement guy agreed that it would probably get by everyone are 3 gems that I'm kicking myself for having missed the first time around (because I can't finds 'em now).
I mean, not literally kicking myself.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:52am From: jojo

I thought kenny G and Billy Jam were the same person...No?
So where's kenny G?

Wed. 2/13/08 11:52am From: Listener Dave

The Harry Potter show was cool too.

I think the show that got him tossed was a series of possible alternative titles to "Anal Magic", nearly all of which were FCC-unfriendly if memory serves.

Wed. 2/13/08 11:53am From: Ben

Yes Dave, when FCC was looming large, Kenny had to change the name of his show, Anal Magic. He solicited suggestions on the air by email. One memorable entry was "Tushy Time." You get the idea...

Wed. 2/13/08 11:57am From: dc pat

what was great about the weather report shows (2 of them) was that he was typing in the text of the announcements into the accuplay list as they were being played, AND answering emails at the same time. It was amazing

Wed. 2/13/08 12:04pm From: Listener Mike D.

The Ken/Kenny G. show is going to be total INSANITY. I expect lots of DLR, dogs barking, screaming, opera, Kenny G singing, and God knows what else.

Wed. 2/13/08 5:14pm From: Tim

Was wondering how long it would be before you'd treat us to some more Tatu!

I'd dare say that cover is even better at that speed.

Thu. 2/14/08 10:30am From: James

You don't know which football teams are in?

Man Utd. vs Arsenal.
Oh.. what? You mean American Football.... the game that you play mostly with the ball in your hands??
.... :-)

Tue. 2/19/08 5:46pm From: Tobias

Great Show again!
I specially liked New Palestine High School Girls' Glee Club Midnight Cowboy and
Dogs Ellie and Reina and trainer Veronica Elsea Lied in C Minor
