A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Is adolf noise's album really called 'my favborite things' or is that a typo (sometimes it's hard to figure out w/trouble)

Trouble has finally given in and has restored the comment box. 'Twas creepy comments that compelled her to take it down before, Hat's off to her for the second chance!

Creepy comments? I'm really curious now. Everytime I've been here, it's been normal.

Trouble only brings joy here, and glorious sounds I'd never hear anywhere else.
Thanks :-)

I was here the last day for Trouble's previous comment board... the comments were creepy indeed. Here's hoping she has better luck this time around!
Trouble- thanks for all the amazing music today and every Thursday!

Golly, I was so deeply immersed in work that I didn't even look until Ms. T mentioned it on the air. Be it known, this is a creep-free zone. All hail Francoise Hardy, Nina Simone and all our friends.

Bring back the loons! Their calls were funny and cosmic at the same time. Plus, what could be more appropriate for bringing back the comments than having a chorus of loons?
Thu. 5/15/08 11:10am
From:
jorge
you have to check out Primavera Sound festival line up guys, MVEE will play there by the way, the problem? is in spain..

Glad you had the nerve to let all us creepy people post messages - hooray.

Yeah Jorge, Primavera looks good. I wish I was in Spain... Träd, Gräs och Stenar would be cool to check out as well.

The loons are good and all, but I'm all about the peepers. (even if they're not birds) I hear them bunches on my evening bike rides when I go by ponds and I love the heck out of them - they sound like springtime to me.
Thu. 5/15/08 11:16am
From:
Jorge
Yeah tom tons of great bands playing there, will try to be early there to check TRGR och cause i really like those guys.

Dave from NH - Love the peepers too, alas they are past here in Jersey. and the loons left a month ago. But soon it will be catch the blue claw crabs time

Hurray for dub music! Thanks for this. Love the Vivian Jackson recordings especially. His Michael Prophet productions are my favorite.

I saw a cedar wax wing sitting in an alley here in our Nation's Crapital last week. I thought it was hurt, touched its back, and it flew away. amazing birds.

Ello Trouble, my dad (Jamesie) just gave me that little tote with the guitar on it that you gave him. I guess pink isn't his colour. I'm well chuffed.

Never heard Simone White before. Man, she sings pretty.

We've recently been getting woken up at 4am by the birds tweeting away. And we have parakeets in the trees near my flat, it's very exotic!

cedar wax wings are nice, saw a Baltimore oriole last week, very uplifting. Tis the season for visual bird feasting.

A couple of winters ago up here in NH, our house got dive-bombed by a bunch of waxwings who were getting loaded off of old fermented crabapples and other aged tree fruits. Funny birds.

NYC, see? I have to make do with morning (mourning?) doves in the fire escape across the airshaft from my kitchenette. It's nicer than you might think.

I need to pick up one of the many box sets Trojan puts out. Every time I listen to your show Trouble, you make my decision so much more difficult!!
Thu. 5/15/08 5:07pm
From:
trouble
thanks everyone for a great opening day with comments! answers to questions: the adolf noise is from a compilation named my favorite things. And the john cale/lcd sound system i think i found on the culture bully site. i was looking for another mash-up and stumbled onto it that way.

how come noone chimes in after the show is over. loved juttahipp. never heard of her. later the goombah of soul

Actually, I liked the Led Zeppelin cut. And you, of course, I'm assuming are not under any pressure to play music that you don't want to play.
