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

Lovely song by the Udaipur choral group. Katie and I are going to be in Udaipur in February! Didn't know about Christianity's presence there (especially as Rajasthan is expected to shift toward Hindu Nationalism unfortunately in upcoming Indian elections) - will have to check into that. And when we were in Buenos Aires last month we met the son of Juana Molina's manager! Trouble, you're playing a very psychic set right now (for Katie and me anyway). Although - can't think of any connection to Brian Harnetty. Wait = we're in Detroit, and it's winter! (There's even snow on the ground here.) Katie has performed with James McNew of Dump (when he was briefly in Special Pillow). But I think the chain definitely ends (ironically) at The Daisy Chain. Thanks for the channeling Trouble and Good Christmas to you and Andy and DJ Icepack and all of you dear listeners in radioland!
