	🚂 12:03pm Handy Haversack: Wow, Threemoons, that's so great! Yes, I will definitely be there. It remains to be seen whether I'm being drafted into various raffle-related duties. Hey there, Sem, Carmichael, βrian, Yvang, and all yet to board!

	🚂 12:07pm Handy Haversack: Sounds like a plan, 3Moons! Cold, bright, and windy here in the great estuary. Lots of new green on the trees. This is like a Continental Subway 3OAK!
	🚂 12:07pm Yvang: Roudando n°1
	🚂 12:07pm Carmichael: Never heard of this song, much less the multiple versioons ...
	12:09pm Hubig Pie: They gonna mothball the San Fernando train depot ? Hello everyone.
	12:09pm ChukAmok: Hello All Aboarders!
	🚂 12:09pm Carmichael: * versoonies
	12:10pm ChukAmok: @3M Just say "Hi!" to anyone wearing WFMU gear and you'll certainly find Handy eventually. Plus, it's a fun way to meet folks.
	🚂 12:10pm Handy Haversack: Even I don't know what my hair and beard might look like by Saturday.

	🚂 12:13pm Bas NL: Hello David & passengers in music!
	12:14pm David Dichelle: And hello Bas!
	🚂 12:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...has me thinking of Traffic ...& Bevis Frond.

	🚂 12:15pm chris in the redwoods: missed the last train to San Fernando, but here for the opening of the gates on Road 188. greetings, Conductor David and fellow passengers!
	🚂 12:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well - I'm on my laptop ...but I'll consider it !
	12:16pm David Dichelle: Welcome aboard, Chris!
	12:16pm doctorjazz: Quick hi, swamped at work, have the show on! Probably won't comment much, of at all.
	🚂 12:16pm Bas NL: I think i have to repeat my last week guess Uruguay.
	12:16pm Phillippe: Howdy! I'll say Brazil/Brasil! Hey Handy, Sem, 3M, Yvang, chresti, carmichael, hubig, chuk, Bas, RR63, chris, docjazz, all the Brians present and yet to come, all the Davids present and yet to come
	🚂 12:17pm Carmichael: That was more Fairporty than Fairport!
	12:18pm David Dichelle: And hello Phillippe and Doc at work!
	🚂 12:18pm chresti: Hi Phillippe!
	🚂 12:18pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @ChukAmok Thanks, great idea! I need to figure out which WFMU T-shirt I'll be wearing....
	🚂 12:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Champlain Lake - we talking Vermont here ??
	🚂 12:19pm chris in the redwoods: Threemoons, from my experience meeting Handy... he just looks like Handy!
	12:19pm David Dichelle: RRN: I suppose, although it is an Irish song with all sorts of lake names attached.
	12:20pm ChukAmok: Are Lochs strictly a Scottish thing?
	12:21pm coelacanth∅: greetings David & subterranean Freedom Riders
	🚂 12:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: www.evergreentrad.com... : ' I recently had the opportunity to accompany my friend (and sometimes performance partner) Sara Grey for some concerts out in New England and Sara introduced me to this beautiful American version of what in Ireland is usually called “Lakes of Coolfin” or “Willie Leonard.” Sara’s version is a composite of a few collected in Vermont and I transcribed it here from her singing with help from the text she prints in her book Song Migration from Ireland & Scotland to North America. '
	12:22pm David Dichelle: Salutations Coel!
	12:22pm David Dichelle: And thanks, RRN, that explains it.
	🚂 12:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Vermont lake wigkey : en.wikipedia.org...
	🚂 12:24pm Handy Haversack: ChukAmok: I think that Scottish lochs are, technically, glacially formed. The sea lochs are essentially fjords, and the freshwater lochs are spring-fed glacial ponds. From what I recall, there's only one (stream-fed) lake in Scotland.
	12:26pm coelacanth∅: -and nova scotia lox are both freshwater and saltwater.
	12:27pm kuba: hey dave & lochers!
	12:27pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Kuba!
	12:28pm David Dichelle: What's happening in Berlin?
	🚂 12:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Websearching 'Coolfin Lake' quickly only leads to the Song - but there's this : abbey.galwaycommunityheritage.org...
	12:29pm kuba: saw some good art, caught a cold immediately!
	🚂 12:29pm Handy Haversack: coela, I hear it's the new Scotland!
	12:30pm ChukAmok: That checks out, Handy! Thanks!
	12:31pm ChukAmok: I do love a good fjord.
	12:31pm doctorjazz: Still guessing Staten Island (even a broken clock is right twice a day, not that that will help me.). OK, no more yapping...
	12:31pm coelacanth∅: Handy, and great with cream cheese and onion, though i think you don't relate to that sentiment!
	12:32pm coelacanth∅: i think the road might lead to christmas island, randomly
	12:33pm Sem: ceol, that's a kind of blasphemy around here. A true believer would say lox can only be created from wild, not farm-raised, salmon. True wild salmon are muscled and delicious, farm-raised are scarcely the same species and are only pink because of the dye in the feed. But I digress. And, hello, deep and dark fish.
	12:33pm Sem: coel
	12:33pm David Dichelle: Kuba, are you allergic to art now?
	12:35pm ChukAmok: @Sem You've probably heard this before, but that .gif of yours is insane.
	🚂 12:35pm βrian: @Sem, we splurged on a share of frozen wild salmon. Cooking to 125 degrees. It's lovely.
	12:36pm coelacanth∅: hi Sem! who said anything about farm-raised salmon? salmon swim upstream in freshwater to procreate, so they are at once freshwater and saltwater fish.
	12:36pm kuba: @david ha! that would explain a lot
	12:37pm TDK60: Hello, sorry I'm late. Saluton, pardonu, ke mi malfruas. Missed the Roud. Sticking with Suriname.
	12:37pm David Dichelle: El pozo amargo: lyricstranslate.com...
	🚂 12:37pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Work just got Much Busier but will have you all on in the background Engaging lurk mode....
	12:37pm David Dichelle: Saluton, TDK60!
	🚂 12:39pm Handy Haversack: Goodness. Lot going on here! I was just proud for figuring out there was a "well."
	12:39pm coelacanth∅: yeah that gif both freaks me out with concern and reminds me of how incredibly stupid so many people are.
	12:39pm Sem: coel, of course. Picking a bone out out of context. A fishbone, in fact. Maybe I should process what I read fully before responding? ChukAmok, found it out in the wild. Looks like the guy set himself on fire on purpose?
	12:42pm coelacanth∅: ha, Sem, i new when i posted it it could be misinterpreted! it's what i do. ...apparently.
	12:42pm ChukAmok: Yes, it does look intentional and that he immediately ran into water. Still though, it's bonkers. Kudos!
	🚂 12:43pm Handy Haversack: Maybe the Great GIF Reenactment Collective could be the next WFMU meet-up opportunity.
	12:44pm coelacanth∅: (or to put it another way, i don't always mean to be misinterpreted; but i do often intentionally have multiple meanings!)
	12:45pm coelacanth∅: Handy now you're playing with fire
	12:46pm zzz: @ DD: where are Kohan from?
	12:46pm zzz: *Kohann
	12:46pm Hubig Pie: I guessing from earlier clue that today's destination is prolly a small country or principality, so let's go Andorra ?
	12:47pm David Dichelle: Hey zzz - they are from Lorient, Brittany, France
	🚂 12:47pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Oooh love me some Qntal--surprised to hear it here.
	🚂 12:49pm Handy Haversack: Hubig, Andorra was RR#6.
	12:49pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Handy, yes one of the first.
	12:50pm ChukAmok: Man o' man this aloe juice is not for the faint of pulp, but sure is delicious.
	12:50pm David Dichelle: 3M: A great album in fact.
	12:51pm Phillippe: Just getting back to the board. Looks like we were talking about lox from lochs?
	12:52pm Hubig Pie: Where's that damn Yeti and his interactive map ?
	12:52pm Sem: βrian@12:35. Sensitive preparation, I like that. Here farmed fish are a big thing, and wild-caught offerings are rare and expensive. I can get bootleg halibut steaks more easily. And that's a mightily limited fishery.
	12:52pm David Dichelle: Lochlachs, yes!
	🚂 12:56pm Handy Haversack: And the lack of lox and lakes, Phillippe.
	🚂 12:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Hello Cleveland ! ...we are Illicit Halibut ! & why not.
	🚂 12:57pm chris in the redwoods: grilled fresh Halibut just two nights ago. my son caught the fish in the SF Bay previous day. yum!
	🚂 12:59pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @Chris in the Redwoods if you are in the SF Bay area, don't forget to eat/use invasive species; Humboldt Squid for instance! Tasty when grilled! Also suitable as pet food/bait/etc...
	1:01pm Hubig Pie: The bootleg is cut from the pectoral fin primal on large halibut specimens .
	🚂 1:02pm Handy Haversack: Look, I had a lovely supper, and all I said to my wife was, "That piece of halibut was good enough for Jehovah"!
	1:04pm Phillippe: We had fish a couple nights ago, just for the halibut.
	🚂 1:05pm Handy Haversack: Wow, spoiler alert for Roud 3137! Couldn't wait the fifty-six years, David?
	1:06pm Phillippe: @Handy giving me something to look forward to on my 120th birthday!
	🚂 1:06pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH LOL RE Monty Python ref!
	1:07pm Stanley: Hi David and everyone. That's enough of your blaspheming, Handy.
	1:07pm David Dichelle: Handy, got me there - so here's a related song by Steeleye Span as well.
	🚂 1:07pm chresti: Ha Phillippe!
	1:08pm David Dichelle: Good evening, Stanley!
	🚂 1:08pm Handy Haversack: Hi, Stanley. Also: "OW!"
	🚂 1:08pm chris in the redwoods: Life of Brian... one of the greatest! lol
	🚂 1:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Maddy Prior ...just wanted to say that ...'MaddyPrior'...
	1:11pm still b/p: "Next. Crucifixion?" PRISONER #1: Yes. NISUS: Good. Out of the door. Line on the left. One cross each. Next. Crucifixion?
	1:12pm Alex In Illinois: I am listening via the App today, since I am in the office.
	1:12pm still b/p: Always cautious...cuz sometimes indiscriminate quote orgy is incited. But I hadda.
	🚂 1:14pm chris in the redwoods: so many great ones, still b/p. i hadn't heard 'quote orgy' before. fits, though. :)
	🚂 1:15pm Handy Haversack: I think we're still within tolerances!
	🚂 1:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ' MontyPython? Great ...one Python fan? Okay ...more than one Python fan? Unbearable'... :D
	1:19pm TDK60: Small country, eh? \| David, do you like the Dave Clark 5?
	1:20pm David Dichelle: Welcome Alex and sb/p!
	1:22pm coelacanth∅: could be antarctica ...? (i missed most of the mic break due to computer &/or internet failure; maybe i missed a clue)
	1:22pm David Dichelle: TDK: Yes, I kind of gave that away now - and sure in a pinch :)
	1:23pm Hubig Pie: Have we been to Lichtenstein ? Actually I have, back in 1999. Had a lovely lunch of white asparagus and boiled egg and hollandaise. It was white on white.
	🚂 1:24pm Carmichael: To this day, an old friend and I can recite the Arthur "Two Sheds" Jackson skit verbatim.
	🚂 1:25pm Handy Haversack: Antarctica is officially iced out, coela. It's a six-continent game! Hubig, one of my fave Catalan dishes, a "salad" of pickled white asparagus is mayonnaise! Random Road has not yet been to Liechtenstein.
	1:25pm David Dichelle: But why do they call him "Two Sheds"?
	🚂 1:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm viewing every episode of Python on its 50th Anniversary. Surprisingly long wait between Seasons !
	1:26pm coelacanth∅: dc5 is from the uk, which we've gone to already... so i'll stand by my earlier guess
	1:26pm still b/p: All the way back in high school when public TV was first showing series in US, it would take just one kid throwing out a skit line and quickly the volleying of screeched and accented lines would make me clench and hunch a little until it wound down. On my business card: "Grouchy and pining for moderation since 1975!"
	1:26pm Stanley: Carmichael - do you recall a chap called Arthur Frampton?
	🚂 1:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Still remember the 1st Python I ever saw - the Mollusk Sketch. Sense of Humor forever altered like TheBeatles had done for Music. Course - they're both Sons of the GoonShow.
	1:28pm coelacanth∅: Handy i made music using source material recorded in antarctica! also, sounds eminating from antarctica, recorded in other parts of the world, jacked by me. (but i've never been there)
	1:29pm Stanley: Lovely this Karen Matheson. Long time no see Capercaillie.
	🚂 1:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...course he's from Antartica ! ...If he was from the zoo ee'd have 'Property of the Zoo' stamped on 'im...
	🚂 1:31pm Handy Haversack: I can dig it, coela!
	1:32pm TDK60: Malta? Vatican? / Coel, my DC5 mention had nothing to do with the Road but, bed music of our DJ. (Though it might be fun to hear music from the Principality of Tottenham someday.)
	🚂 1:34pm Brian in UK: Hello David & followers. Department S had a hit with Is Vic There, taken from the 'phone-in sketch; the last track on Matching Tie & Handkerchief. Depending on which side you play.
	1:35pm David Dichelle: Galiku: lyricstranslate.com...
	1:35pm David Dichelle: Hello, Brian!
	🚂 1:35pm Bas NL: Short derailment to home. Be back soon!!
	🚂 1:35pm Carmichael: Micronesia? Get it?? Ha ha ...
	1:36pm David Dichelle: Safe travels, Bas!
	1:40pm coelacanth∅: oh, Thanks TDK. i didn't hear much of the mic break
	🚂 1:41pm Handy Haversack: If it's Little Italy, doctorjazz will be closest.
	1:42pm Webhamster Henry: One of my father's friends brought over a bunch of Python LPs from old Blighty, and we pestered my father to get Python on Connecticut Public TV, where he was a trustee. And you try to tell the young people today that, and they won't believe you.
	🚂 1:43pm Brian in UK: WH, do you have any relatives from Yorkshire?
	1:44pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Henry.
	🚂 1:44pm Yvang: This Zanmari Baré song is beautiful.
	🚂 1:44pm Brian in UK: How popular was Monty Python in the USA? Aside from this stations avid fans.
	🚂 1:45pm Carmichael: I do not, Stanley. But I know his cycling partner Arthur Figgis.
	1:45pm David Dichelle: WH: Did he manage to get it on for you?
	🚂 1:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Berimbau ...just want to say that ...'Berimbau'...
	🚂 1:46pm Carmichael: @Brian, it was insanely popular in the 70s and early 80s.
	1:48pm Stanley: Ah, Carmichael. He was the chap with, er ahem, how do you say, a 50% bonus in the derriere region?
	🚂 1:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Python got on Public Broadcasting in the USA a few years after they wrapped up the series in the UK. I collided with them in Junior High School - something like - 1976, 7 ?? Probly late for the USA in fact... PBS was a lot less Bougie then. Like everything else...
	🚂 1:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...remember the Goodies too. BennyHill - on PBS ! & so it began...
	1:49pm zzz: i love reggae grooves from this part of the world. this groove sounds like its about to slip into Bob Marley's 'Exodus' at any second, so good.
	🚂 1:50pm Brian in UK: Rev, oh yes the bizarre popularity of Benny Hill in the USA. Or over here for that matter.
	1:50pm TDK60: CRR could be The Gambia. (But my choice is Suriname.)
	1:50pm TDK60: RR not CRR
	🚂 1:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...all sorts of BritCom on PBS. More sober things like 'Butterflies' & 'Norman Conquests' way back then... up to 'Upstart Crow' & 'Coupling' quite recently. Now I'm staring @ 4"s of HD on a smartphone...
	1:53pm Hubig Pie: Arthur Figgis was the man with 3 buttocks ? I remeber it as one of those 'and now for something completely different....' segues .
	1:54pm Stanley: Love a good trombone. Well, you're forced to aren't you.
	🚂 1:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...should probly download the BritBox app ...BritCom channel on PlutoTV, but I haven't dug in yet. Not about paying Cable whatsoever.
	🚂 1:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Unimpeachable playlist. Much appreciated btw.
	🚂 1:57pm Brian in UK: Who ever thought that Situation Comedy was a good idea or even funny.
	1:57pm Stanley: Arthur Frampton is the man with three buttocks. Due to this physical condition, he is interviewed on a television programme, but he refuses to show his extra buttock. A proof, he cites that his cycling partner, Arthur Figgis, has seen his backside.
	🚂 1:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Watching the Python episodes again (has the boxset) - it is as much about the Segues & screwing with Forms as the Sketches we all quote ! The animation, editing & direction. All quite masterful & meta.
	1:59pm TDK60: Maldives it is.
	🚂 1:59pm Handy Haversack: Maldives! I have wondered if there was enough sound meat on the musical bone there! Nice!
	🚂 1:59pm Brian in UK: Rev, an American to thank for most of that. Sadly, he had to come over here.
	2:00pm wenzo toad (it/it’s): I am blessed to have a couple family friends from Eritrea… one of them has one of my favorite smiles of any human I’ve met. it’s a shame what that country is going through not that I claim to know much about it but they told me a few things.
	🚂 2:00pm Brian in UK: As David said, very little is above water.
	🚂 2:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mr. Terry Gilliam. For the Animation anyhow.
	🚂 2:01pm Handy Haversack: "With an average ground-level elevation of 1.5 metres (4 ft 11 in) above sea level,[15] and a highest natural point of only 2.4 meters, it is the world's lowest-lying country."
	2:01pm Webhamster Henry: @DD Yes, we got it on and it was very popular! I understand, Mr. Frampton, you have a 50% bonus in the region of what-you-said.
	🚂 2:02pm βrian: Sorry, Holland!
	🚂 2:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...okay - expecting more of the African / Arabian interaction I love to hear & contemplate. Let's find out what we got !
	2:03pm David Dichelle: Wenzo toad: Yes, it is sadly one of the least free countries by most measures.
	🚂 2:03pm Brian in UK: It must have been quite a melting pot in the past with ships passing through.
	2:04pm David Dichelle: (Referring to Eritrea)
	🚂 2:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh we're in Maldives not Eritrea. Okay kewl.
	2:05pm David Dichelle: Yes, we just had the one track from Eritrea before the Sunshiners.
	2:06pm David Dichelle: Random Road 4 was Eritrea in fact.
	2:06pm Sem: OK, geography fans, by way of contrast w/ the low-lying Maldives, there is a country which has the Earth's highest low-lying elevation of ~4590 feet/1400 metres. It's music has been the subject of a random road hour.
	2:09pm still b/p: Story I didn't know until just now: ABC buys the shorter season #4 of Python shows after the PBS run of the first 3 seasons -- post-Holy Grail (and without Cleese). ABC cuts the HELL out of the material for commercial time tightening and their own censoring decisions. Python sues, saying potential new TV-film-book audiences will get the wrong idea from the considerably de-Pythonized stuff, and claims copyright agreement disallows cuts. ABC says they can't cancel without inflicting big harm on itself. Cut and uncut skit version played to compare in court. It was all aired by ABC as a single program before case was sorted out..eventually some sort of agreement and money, with BBC involved in judgment outcome. And ABC...wins a freakin' Emmy for the special! (Joe Besser voice: "Ooh, they make me SO mad!")
	🚂 2:11pm chris in the redwoods: Bolivia, Sem? i wanted to say Nepal, but it hasn't been a random road.... i need ngh on this one. hehe.
	🚂 2:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Population something vaguely like 500,000 - to New Hampshire's (little U.S. state I'm in) 1.3 million.
	🚂 2:11pm Brian in UK: Sem, I was thinking of the Turpan Depression in Xian Jian.
	🚂 2:14pm Brian in UK: David, are these Maldivian tracks all recorded on the islands.
	2:16pm David Dichelle: Brian, I believe so, at least in most cases.
	🚂 2:18pm Brian in UK: David, the longer the Random Road rambles on the more interesting it gets. Great idea but hard work at times? Sometimes more so when it is a populous country with a huge choice.
	🚂 2:18pm Bas NL: And home... Maldives! Nice!
	2:21pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Brian! Yes, too much or too little to choose from can pose different sorts of challenges. But always the best kinds of challenges!
	2:21pm David Dichelle: Welcome back and home, Bas!
	🚂 2:22pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Ugh had to jump on a zoom meeting so music off. Back....
	🚂 2:23pm Bas NL: 557751 people on 115 square miles. That's a busy set of islands!
	🚂 2:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always (week after week) richly engaging, entertaining, diverse & informative all @ once.
	2:23pm David Dichelle: And welcome back, 3M!
	2:23pm David Dichelle: Thanks, RRN!
	🚂 2:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& not even the best adjectives, either.
	2:24pm Sem: The answer is Lesotho, which I had as a random road guess for a number of weeks. But not the week the random generator coughed it up as a subject.
	🚂 2:24pm chris in the redwoods: nice. thanks, Sem.
	2:24pm David Dichelle: Yes, indeed - they call it the Kingdom of the Sky.
	2:25pm still b/p: Neil Young-y.
	2:25pm Franco Twinkie: David! This rocks hard in just the right way.
	2:25pm Sem: chris in the redwoods: yeah, I bet ngh would know that. Let's ask him the next time he appears.
	2:25pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Franco!
	🚂 2:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nothing like a band that's really together. Felt how it is doing that myself - but far too few times.
	2:27pm Franco Twinkie: This too David. One thing I've noticed - the farther a band is from people who dictate taste, the better they are.
	2:29pm David Dichelle: Yes, I was amazed at what there was to find from the Maldives.
	🚂 2:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Franco it's practically Darwinian. To be a Galapagos - a Scene has special requirements: needs to be large enuff to sustain the Musics - yet isolated enuff to be distinct too...
	🚂 2:30pm Brian in UK: Most of the tracks so far are very recent.
	2:30pm Franco Twinkie: I think I need to go there.
	🚂 2:32pm Bas NL: They drive on the left side.. Darwin must have visited the islands.
	2:32pm David Dichelle: Brian: I didn't find very much that was older. But lots of more recent stuff.
	🚂 2:34pm Brian in UK: David, guessing that the internet & modern recording techniques have been a godsend to them. This is pure Monica!!
	🚂 2:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & an obvious characteristic maybe is that it is Island Music. As we might tend to think of Pacific Island or Caribbean Musics being (tho they are Indian Ocean & neither there)... 'Tropical' sounding - & I might even posit there's a kind of oceanic rowing rhythm & energy in evidence ?
	2:37pm David Dichelle: Brian: Yes, I was thinking along those lines as well.
	🚂 2:39pm Handy Haversack: Got called away, dang it!
	2:44pm David Dichelle: Following this show, stay tuned for Testify!: wfmu.org...
	2:45pm David Dichelle: And after Testify!, Electric Lazy Susan with DJ Nogood Nick will be filling in for Disco Underground today.
	2:46pm Funky16Corners: Hey David!
	2:46pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Larry!
	🚂 2:49pm chris in the redwoods: really digging this set, David. always so grateful for you taking the time to uncover these gems for us.
	2:49pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Chris, it is always my great pleasure!
	🚂 2:50pm Brian in UK: David, time to dine. Good work as ever.
	2:50pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Brian, and bon app!

	12:09pm Hubig Pie: They gonna mothball the San Fernando train depot ? Hello everyone.
	12:09pm ChukAmok: Hello All Aboarders!
	🚂 12:09pm Carmichael: * versoonies

	🚂 12:17pm Carmichael: That was more Fairporty than Fairport!
	12:18pm David Dichelle: And hello Phillippe and Doc at work!
	🚂 12:18pm chresti: Hi Phillippe!
	🚂 12:18pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @ChukAmok Thanks, great idea! I need to figure out which WFMU T-shirt I'll be wearing....
	🚂 12:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Champlain Lake - we talking Vermont here ??
	🚂 12:19pm chris in the redwoods: Threemoons, from my experience meeting Handy... he just looks like Handy!
	12:19pm David Dichelle: RRN: I suppose, although it is an Irish song with all sorts of lake names attached.
	12:20pm ChukAmok: Are Lochs strictly a Scottish thing?
	12:21pm coelacanth∅: greetings David & subterranean Freedom Riders
	🚂 12:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: www.evergreentrad.com... : ' I recently had the opportunity to accompany my friend (and sometimes performance partner) Sara Grey for some concerts out in New England and Sara introduced me to this beautiful American version of what in Ireland is usually called “Lakes of Coolfin” or “Willie Leonard.” Sara’s version is a composite of a few collected in Vermont and I transcribed it here from her singing with help from the text she prints in her book Song Migration from Ireland & Scotland to North America. '
	12:22pm David Dichelle: Salutations Coel!
	12:22pm David Dichelle: And thanks, RRN, that explains it.
	🚂 12:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Vermont lake wigkey : en.wikipedia.org...
	🚂 12:24pm Handy Haversack: ChukAmok: I think that Scottish lochs are, technically, glacially formed. The sea lochs are essentially fjords, and the freshwater lochs are spring-fed glacial ponds. From what I recall, there's only one (stream-fed) lake in Scotland.
	12:26pm coelacanth∅: -and nova scotia lox are both freshwater and saltwater.
	12:27pm kuba: hey dave & lochers!
	12:27pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Kuba!
	12:28pm David Dichelle: What's happening in Berlin?
	🚂 12:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Websearching 'Coolfin Lake' quickly only leads to the Song - but there's this : abbey.galwaycommunityheritage.org...
	12:29pm kuba: saw some good art, caught a cold immediately!
	🚂 12:29pm Handy Haversack: coela, I hear it's the new Scotland!
	12:30pm ChukAmok: That checks out, Handy! Thanks!
	12:31pm ChukAmok: I do love a good fjord.
	12:31pm doctorjazz: Still guessing Staten Island (even a broken clock is right twice a day, not that that will help me.). OK, no more yapping...
	12:31pm coelacanth∅: Handy, and great with cream cheese and onion, though i think you don't relate to that sentiment!
	12:32pm coelacanth∅: i think the road might lead to christmas island, randomly
	12:33pm Sem: ceol, that's a kind of blasphemy around here. A true believer would say lox can only be created from wild, not farm-raised, salmon. True wild salmon are muscled and delicious, farm-raised are scarcely the same species and are only pink because of the dye in the feed. But I digress. And, hello, deep and dark fish.
	12:33pm Sem: coel
	12:33pm David Dichelle: Kuba, are you allergic to art now?
	12:35pm ChukAmok: @Sem You've probably heard this before, but that .gif of yours is insane.
	🚂 12:35pm βrian: @Sem, we splurged on a share of frozen wild salmon. Cooking to 125 degrees. It's lovely.
	12:36pm coelacanth∅: hi Sem! who said anything about farm-raised salmon? salmon swim upstream in freshwater to procreate, so they are at once freshwater and saltwater fish.
	12:36pm kuba: @david ha! that would explain a lot
	12:37pm TDK60: Hello, sorry I'm late. Saluton, pardonu, ke mi malfruas. Missed the Roud. Sticking with Suriname.
	12:37pm David Dichelle: El pozo amargo: lyricstranslate.com...
	🚂 12:37pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Work just got Much Busier but will have you all on in the background Engaging lurk mode....
	12:37pm David Dichelle: Saluton, TDK60!
	🚂 12:39pm Handy Haversack: Goodness. Lot going on here! I was just proud for figuring out there was a "well."
	12:39pm coelacanth∅: yeah that gif both freaks me out with concern and reminds me of how incredibly stupid so many people are.
	12:39pm Sem: coel, of course. Picking a bone out out of context. A fishbone, in fact. Maybe I should process what I read fully before responding? ChukAmok, found it out in the wild. Looks like the guy set himself on fire on purpose?
	12:42pm coelacanth∅: ha, Sem, i new when i posted it it could be misinterpreted! it's what i do. ...apparently.
	12:42pm ChukAmok: Yes, it does look intentional and that he immediately ran into water. Still though, it's bonkers. Kudos!
	🚂 12:43pm Handy Haversack: Maybe the Great GIF Reenactment Collective could be the next WFMU meet-up opportunity.
	12:44pm coelacanth∅: (or to put it another way, i don't always mean to be misinterpreted; but i do often intentionally have multiple meanings!)
	12:45pm coelacanth∅: Handy now you're playing with fire
	12:46pm zzz: @ DD: where are Kohan from?
	12:46pm zzz: *Kohann
	12:46pm Hubig Pie: I guessing from earlier clue that today's destination is prolly a small country or principality, so let's go Andorra ?
	12:47pm David Dichelle: Hey zzz - they are from Lorient, Brittany, France
	🚂 12:47pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Oooh love me some Qntal--surprised to hear it here.
	🚂 12:49pm Handy Haversack: Hubig, Andorra was RR#6.
	12:49pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Handy, yes one of the first.
	12:50pm ChukAmok: Man o' man this aloe juice is not for the faint of pulp, but sure is delicious.
	12:50pm David Dichelle: 3M: A great album in fact.
	12:51pm Phillippe: Just getting back to the board. Looks like we were talking about lox from lochs?
	12:52pm Hubig Pie: Where's that damn Yeti and his interactive map ?
	12:52pm Sem: βrian@12:35. Sensitive preparation, I like that. Here farmed fish are a big thing, and wild-caught offerings are rare and expensive. I can get bootleg halibut steaks more easily. And that's a mightily limited fishery.
	12:52pm David Dichelle: Lochlachs, yes!
	🚂 12:56pm Handy Haversack: And the lack of lox and lakes, Phillippe.
	🚂 12:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Hello Cleveland ! ...we are Illicit Halibut ! & why not.
	🚂 12:57pm chris in the redwoods: grilled fresh Halibut just two nights ago. my son caught the fish in the SF Bay previous day. yum!
	🚂 12:59pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @Chris in the Redwoods if you are in the SF Bay area, don't forget to eat/use invasive species; Humboldt Squid for instance! Tasty when grilled! Also suitable as pet food/bait/etc...
	1:01pm Hubig Pie: The bootleg is cut from the pectoral fin primal on large halibut specimens .
	🚂 1:02pm Handy Haversack: Look, I had a lovely supper, and all I said to my wife was, "That piece of halibut was good enough for Jehovah"!
	1:04pm Phillippe: We had fish a couple nights ago, just for the halibut.
	🚂 1:05pm Handy Haversack: Wow, spoiler alert for Roud 3137! Couldn't wait the fifty-six years, David?
	1:06pm Phillippe: @Handy giving me something to look forward to on my 120th birthday!
	🚂 1:06pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH LOL RE Monty Python ref!
	1:07pm Stanley: Hi David and everyone. That's enough of your blaspheming, Handy.
	1:07pm David Dichelle: Handy, got me there - so here's a related song by Steeleye Span as well.
	🚂 1:07pm chresti: Ha Phillippe!
	1:08pm David Dichelle: Good evening, Stanley!
	🚂 1:08pm Handy Haversack: Hi, Stanley. Also: "OW!"
	🚂 1:08pm chris in the redwoods: Life of Brian... one of the greatest! lol
	🚂 1:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Maddy Prior ...just wanted to say that ...'MaddyPrior'...
	1:11pm still b/p: "Next. Crucifixion?" PRISONER #1: Yes. NISUS: Good. Out of the door. Line on the left. One cross each. Next. Crucifixion?
	1:12pm Alex In Illinois: I am listening via the App today, since I am in the office.
	1:12pm still b/p: Always cautious...cuz sometimes indiscriminate quote orgy is incited. But I hadda.
	🚂 1:14pm chris in the redwoods: so many great ones, still b/p. i hadn't heard 'quote orgy' before. fits, though. :)
	🚂 1:15pm Handy Haversack: I think we're still within tolerances!
	🚂 1:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ' MontyPython? Great ...one Python fan? Okay ...more than one Python fan? Unbearable'... :D
	1:19pm TDK60: Small country, eh? \| David, do you like the Dave Clark 5?
	1:20pm David Dichelle: Welcome Alex and sb/p!
	1:22pm coelacanth∅: could be antarctica ...? (i missed most of the mic break due to computer &/or internet failure; maybe i missed a clue)
	1:22pm David Dichelle: TDK: Yes, I kind of gave that away now - and sure in a pinch :)
	1:23pm Hubig Pie: Have we been to Lichtenstein ? Actually I have, back in 1999. Had a lovely lunch of white asparagus and boiled egg and hollandaise. It was white on white.
	🚂 1:24pm Carmichael: To this day, an old friend and I can recite the Arthur "Two Sheds" Jackson skit verbatim.
	🚂 1:25pm Handy Haversack: Antarctica is officially iced out, coela. It's a six-continent game! Hubig, one of my fave Catalan dishes, a "salad" of pickled white asparagus is mayonnaise! Random Road has not yet been to Liechtenstein.
	1:25pm David Dichelle: But why do they call him "Two Sheds"?
	🚂 1:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm viewing every episode of Python on its 50th Anniversary. Surprisingly long wait between Seasons !
	1:26pm coelacanth∅: dc5 is from the uk, which we've gone to already... so i'll stand by my earlier guess
	1:26pm still b/p: All the way back in high school when public TV was first showing series in US, it would take just one kid throwing out a skit line and quickly the volleying of screeched and accented lines would make me clench and hunch a little until it wound down. On my business card: "Grouchy and pining for moderation since 1975!"
	1:26pm Stanley: Carmichael - do you recall a chap called Arthur Frampton?
	🚂 1:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Still remember the 1st Python I ever saw - the Mollusk Sketch. Sense of Humor forever altered like TheBeatles had done for Music. Course - they're both Sons of the GoonShow.
	1:28pm coelacanth∅: Handy i made music using source material recorded in antarctica! also, sounds eminating from antarctica, recorded in other parts of the world, jacked by me. (but i've never been there)
	1:29pm Stanley: Lovely this Karen Matheson. Long time no see Capercaillie.
	🚂 1:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...course he's from Antartica ! ...If he was from the zoo ee'd have 'Property of the Zoo' stamped on 'im...
	🚂 1:31pm Handy Haversack: I can dig it, coela!
	1:32pm TDK60: Malta? Vatican? / Coel, my DC5 mention had nothing to do with the Road but, bed music of our DJ. (Though it might be fun to hear music from the Principality of Tottenham someday.)
	🚂 1:34pm Brian in UK: Hello David & followers. Department S had a hit with Is Vic There, taken from the 'phone-in sketch; the last track on Matching Tie & Handkerchief. Depending on which side you play.
	1:35pm David Dichelle: Galiku: lyricstranslate.com...
	1:35pm David Dichelle: Hello, Brian!
	🚂 1:35pm Bas NL: Short derailment to home. Be back soon!!
	🚂 1:35pm Carmichael: Micronesia? Get it?? Ha ha ...
	1:36pm David Dichelle: Safe travels, Bas!
	1:40pm coelacanth∅: oh, Thanks TDK. i didn't hear much of the mic break
	🚂 1:41pm Handy Haversack: If it's Little Italy, doctorjazz will be closest.
	1:42pm Webhamster Henry: One of my father's friends brought over a bunch of Python LPs from old Blighty, and we pestered my father to get Python on Connecticut Public TV, where he was a trustee. And you try to tell the young people today that, and they won't believe you.
	🚂 1:43pm Brian in UK: WH, do you have any relatives from Yorkshire?
	1:44pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Henry.
	🚂 1:44pm Yvang: This Zanmari Baré song is beautiful.
	🚂 1:44pm Brian in UK: How popular was Monty Python in the USA? Aside from this stations avid fans.
	🚂 1:45pm Carmichael: I do not, Stanley. But I know his cycling partner Arthur Figgis.
	1:45pm David Dichelle: WH: Did he manage to get it on for you?
	🚂 1:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Berimbau ...just want to say that ...'Berimbau'...
	🚂 1:46pm Carmichael: @Brian, it was insanely popular in the 70s and early 80s.
	1:48pm Stanley: Ah, Carmichael. He was the chap with, er ahem, how do you say, a 50% bonus in the derriere region?
	🚂 1:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Python got on Public Broadcasting in the USA a few years after they wrapped up the series in the UK. I collided with them in Junior High School - something like - 1976, 7 ?? Probly late for the USA in fact... PBS was a lot less Bougie then. Like everything else...
	🚂 1:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...remember the Goodies too. BennyHill - on PBS ! & so it began...
	1:49pm zzz: i love reggae grooves from this part of the world. this groove sounds like its about to slip into Bob Marley's 'Exodus' at any second, so good.
	🚂 1:50pm Brian in UK: Rev, oh yes the bizarre popularity of Benny Hill in the USA. Or over here for that matter.
	1:50pm TDK60: CRR could be The Gambia. (But my choice is Suriname.)
	1:50pm TDK60: RR not CRR
	🚂 1:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...all sorts of BritCom on PBS. More sober things like 'Butterflies' & 'Norman Conquests' way back then... up to 'Upstart Crow' & 'Coupling' quite recently. Now I'm staring @ 4"s of HD on a smartphone...
	1:53pm Hubig Pie: Arthur Figgis was the man with 3 buttocks ? I remeber it as one of those 'and now for something completely different....' segues .
	1:54pm Stanley: Love a good trombone. Well, you're forced to aren't you.
	🚂 1:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...should probly download the BritBox app ...BritCom channel on PlutoTV, but I haven't dug in yet. Not about paying Cable whatsoever.
	🚂 1:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Unimpeachable playlist. Much appreciated btw.
	🚂 1:57pm Brian in UK: Who ever thought that Situation Comedy was a good idea or even funny.
	1:57pm Stanley: Arthur Frampton is the man with three buttocks. Due to this physical condition, he is interviewed on a television programme, but he refuses to show his extra buttock. A proof, he cites that his cycling partner, Arthur Figgis, has seen his backside.
	🚂 1:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Watching the Python episodes again (has the boxset) - it is as much about the Segues & screwing with Forms as the Sketches we all quote ! The animation, editing & direction. All quite masterful & meta.
	1:59pm TDK60: Maldives it is.
	🚂 1:59pm Handy Haversack: Maldives! I have wondered if there was enough sound meat on the musical bone there! Nice!
	🚂 1:59pm Brian in UK: Rev, an American to thank for most of that. Sadly, he had to come over here.
	2:00pm wenzo toad (it/it’s): I am blessed to have a couple family friends from Eritrea… one of them has one of my favorite smiles of any human I’ve met. it’s a shame what that country is going through not that I claim to know much about it but they told me a few things.
	🚂 2:00pm Brian in UK: As David said, very little is above water.
	🚂 2:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mr. Terry Gilliam. For the Animation anyhow.
	🚂 2:01pm Handy Haversack: "With an average ground-level elevation of 1.5 metres (4 ft 11 in) above sea level,[15] and a highest natural point of only 2.4 meters, it is the world's lowest-lying country."
	2:01pm Webhamster Henry: @DD Yes, we got it on and it was very popular! I understand, Mr. Frampton, you have a 50% bonus in the region of what-you-said.
	🚂 2:02pm βrian: Sorry, Holland!
	🚂 2:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...okay - expecting more of the African / Arabian interaction I love to hear & contemplate. Let's find out what we got !
	2:03pm David Dichelle: Wenzo toad: Yes, it is sadly one of the least free countries by most measures.
	🚂 2:03pm Brian in UK: It must have been quite a melting pot in the past with ships passing through.
	2:04pm David Dichelle: (Referring to Eritrea)
	🚂 2:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh we're in Maldives not Eritrea. Okay kewl.
	2:05pm David Dichelle: Yes, we just had the one track from Eritrea before the Sunshiners.
	2:06pm David Dichelle: Random Road 4 was Eritrea in fact.
	2:06pm Sem: OK, geography fans, by way of contrast w/ the low-lying Maldives, there is a country which has the Earth's highest low-lying elevation of ~4590 feet/1400 metres. It's music has been the subject of a random road hour.
	2:09pm still b/p: Story I didn't know until just now: ABC buys the shorter season #4 of Python shows after the PBS run of the first 3 seasons -- post-Holy Grail (and without Cleese). ABC cuts the HELL out of the material for commercial time tightening and their own censoring decisions. Python sues, saying potential new TV-film-book audiences will get the wrong idea from the considerably de-Pythonized stuff, and claims copyright agreement disallows cuts. ABC says they can't cancel without inflicting big harm on itself. Cut and uncut skit version played to compare in court. It was all aired by ABC as a single program before case was sorted out..eventually some sort of agreement and money, with BBC involved in judgment outcome. And ABC...wins a freakin' Emmy for the special! (Joe Besser voice: "Ooh, they make me SO mad!")
	🚂 2:11pm chris in the redwoods: Bolivia, Sem? i wanted to say Nepal, but it hasn't been a random road.... i need ngh on this one. hehe.
	🚂 2:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Population something vaguely like 500,000 - to New Hampshire's (little U.S. state I'm in) 1.3 million.
	🚂 2:11pm Brian in UK: Sem, I was thinking of the Turpan Depression in Xian Jian.
	🚂 2:14pm Brian in UK: David, are these Maldivian tracks all recorded on the islands.
	2:16pm David Dichelle: Brian, I believe so, at least in most cases.
	🚂 2:18pm Brian in UK: David, the longer the Random Road rambles on the more interesting it gets. Great idea but hard work at times? Sometimes more so when it is a populous country with a huge choice.
	🚂 2:18pm Bas NL: And home... Maldives! Nice!
	2:21pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Brian! Yes, too much or too little to choose from can pose different sorts of challenges. But always the best kinds of challenges!
	2:21pm David Dichelle: Welcome back and home, Bas!
	🚂 2:22pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Ugh had to jump on a zoom meeting so music off. Back....
	🚂 2:23pm Bas NL: 557751 people on 115 square miles. That's a busy set of islands!
	🚂 2:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always (week after week) richly engaging, entertaining, diverse & informative all @ once.
	2:23pm David Dichelle: And welcome back, 3M!
	2:23pm David Dichelle: Thanks, RRN!
	🚂 2:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& not even the best adjectives, either.
	2:24pm Sem: The answer is Lesotho, which I had as a random road guess for a number of weeks. But not the week the random generator coughed it up as a subject.
	🚂 2:24pm chris in the redwoods: nice. thanks, Sem.
	2:24pm David Dichelle: Yes, indeed - they call it the Kingdom of the Sky.
	2:25pm still b/p: Neil Young-y.
	2:25pm Franco Twinkie: David! This rocks hard in just the right way.
	2:25pm Sem: chris in the redwoods: yeah, I bet ngh would know that. Let's ask him the next time he appears.
	2:25pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Franco!
	🚂 2:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nothing like a band that's really together. Felt how it is doing that myself - but far too few times.
	2:27pm Franco Twinkie: This too David. One thing I've noticed - the farther a band is from people who dictate taste, the better they are.
	2:29pm David Dichelle: Yes, I was amazed at what there was to find from the Maldives.
	🚂 2:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Franco it's practically Darwinian. To be a Galapagos - a Scene has special requirements: needs to be large enuff to sustain the Musics - yet isolated enuff to be distinct too...
	🚂 2:30pm Brian in UK: Most of the tracks so far are very recent.
	2:30pm Franco Twinkie: I think I need to go there.
	🚂 2:32pm Bas NL: They drive on the left side.. Darwin must have visited the islands.
	2:32pm David Dichelle: Brian: I didn't find very much that was older. But lots of more recent stuff.
	🚂 2:34pm Brian in UK: David, guessing that the internet & modern recording techniques have been a godsend to them. This is pure Monica!!
	🚂 2:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & an obvious characteristic maybe is that it is Island Music. As we might tend to think of Pacific Island or Caribbean Musics being (tho they are Indian Ocean & neither there)... 'Tropical' sounding - & I might even posit there's a kind of oceanic rowing rhythm & energy in evidence ?
	2:37pm David Dichelle: Brian: Yes, I was thinking along those lines as well.
	🚂 2:39pm Handy Haversack: Got called away, dang it!
	2:44pm David Dichelle: Following this show, stay tuned for Testify!: wfmu.org...
	2:45pm David Dichelle: And after Testify!, Electric Lazy Susan with DJ Nogood Nick will be filling in for Disco Underground today.
	2:46pm Funky16Corners: Hey David!
	2:46pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Larry!
	🚂 2:49pm chris in the redwoods: really digging this set, David. always so grateful for you taking the time to uncover these gems for us.
	2:49pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Chris, it is always my great pleasure!
	🚂 2:50pm Brian in UK: David, time to dine. Good work as ever.
	2:50pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Brian, and bon app!
	2:53pm Phillippe: Thanks David!
	🚂 2:53pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Thanks so much for yet another excellent, excellent show!!
	2:54pm Sem: Thanks for this window on Maldivian musical culture, David. Been a sun-frolic, wave-lapping random road. Hope to catch the next train, next time. Seeya, all.
	2:56pm Franco Twinkie: Some of the stuff was a little to soft for my taste, but the rockers were great. Thanks David.
	🚂 2:56pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, David! Loved what I was able to catch of the Random Road. Thanks as always for what you unearth for earth's sake for us! Keep faring forward, Voyageurs!
	🚂 2:57pm Bas NL: Thanks David! Nice sunny sounds from the Maldives!
	🚂 2:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Woosh! Back @ the Station. ~ TY Always DJ DD ~
	🚂 2:58pm Yvang: Thanks David!
	3:00pm David Dichelle: Thanks everyone!
	🚂 3:01pm chresti: Thanks!
	3:12pm coelacanth∅: Thanks David!
