	10:04pm Julie: hiya Yvang!
	10:05pm Androu B.: Julie, Harry P. over on the R'n'S stream just devoted his Funhouse program tonight to an hours worth of Roxy Music. Have a listen if you get the time: https://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/120433
	10:06pm Julie: thanks Androu
	10:06pm Robm: I should be sleeping too but the siren call of the magic factory is too much
	10:07pm Androu B.: Our friend RevRab should be chiming in in 3...2...1...
	10:08pm Robm: @androu will check that in the archives thanks
	10:24pm Scobot: Hiya, Julie. Had a conversation with someone about EJ’s Harmony. In a fleeting moment, I thought of you. Hope that didn’t seem creepy.
	10:24pm Julie: haha hiya Scobot, it makes sense you would I guess!
	10:24pm Androu B.: Anyone have any idea where that landcscape featured on the cover of the Chris Bell album is located? That image is striking!
	10:26pm Julie: Switzerland, it seems
	10:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Evening ! ...Some George for Johnny's B-Day. I like that, somehow.
	10:28pm Androu B.: Yeah, I had a feeling that's where it had to have been taken. The height of the clouds was the giveaway.
	10:29pm Julie: hiya Rev!
	10:29pm Androu B.: Good evening, RevRab!🐰💣♏
	10:31pm Androu B.: Oh, and disregard my comment @10:07. My timing was off tonight.
	10:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wull - the whole B-side is George Martin's film music. Wonderful for the task - but not TheBeatles.
	10:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...' The cover photo was taken by Bell’s brother, David, in Switzerland with a portion of Diablerets in the background. '...
	10:37pm Julie: okay dr pepper time brb you be good
	10:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: www.facebook.com...
	10:40pm Julie: what'd I miss?
	10:42pm Julie: by the way I know I'm competing with myself but if you like what I do here, throw a few bucks to EB & Sheena's
	10:44pm Aitch: Hey Lady Julie-mon, éclectisme me some banana
	10:45pm Julie: hiya aitch! I learned this weekend that bananas have seeds, and most of what we get in stores in the US are clones and made seed-free.
	10:48pm Aitch: We made them. Plantain closer to the original. Weirdly a herb that grows a berry
	10:48pm Julie: aitch are you in australia?
	10:48pm Aitch: Yes in Sydney
	10:49pm Julie: do y'all accept folks from NY?
	10:49pm Scobot: I’m reminded of Sea and Cake when I hear Eden’s Children.
	10:49pm Julie: I've never been to Australia...I wonder if I could live there. is there a downside?
	10:51pm Aitch: Like you for us it will be be completely different, but weirdly the same. Big place, as big as yours but few people so plenty of options
	10:52pm Julie: where are the crowds?
	10:53pm Aitch: what crowd?
	10:54pm Julie: so when Elton plays in Sydney..there's no packed stadium?
	10:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...getting a record collection to Australia is not something I'd look forward to ...but if Elle MacPherson & Nicole Kidman & Kylie Minogue will have me I'm willing to try...
	10:55pm Aitch: 5 ish million in Sydney and Melbourne. One more LA the other more San Fran. But both settled by pommies so mix both with Manchester add sunlight and space and voila!
	10:56pm Julie: I doubt any one but Kylie lives there anymore.
	10:57pm Scobot: Is there a spider season?
	10:57pm Julie: I really need to get there. It's the 24 hour plane ride. I need to have like a whole free month so I can travel that way in spurts
	10:57pm Aitch: what spiders?
	10:58pm Julie: maybe next time my friend Anna Copa Cabanna goes back... I can see how she does it
	10:58pm Scobot: No spiders?
	10:59pm Androu B.: G'day, Aitch! Since it's mentioned, I'd consider Perth a must-go-to location for my, or anyone's, bucket list. I could imagine the west coast of Aus having the same aesthetic as California's shores (the east coast even moreso).
	10:59pm Julie: how do the planes from the US go to Australia, east or west?
	11:00pm Aitch: there's nothing in the middle Julie. You can do Fort Worth - Sydney and takes about 15 hrs straight? As far as they can go so far without huge$ When you go Sydney LA, all the way across water, you land at the same time you left. Takes two days to get back though. Take that flat-earthers.
	11:01pm Julie: and how close is NZ? I was so sad when I first went to London and saw how far Scotland was
	11:01pm Aitch: From NY, LA-Sydney is closer. 10,000 miles
	11:02pm Julie: 15 hours I can do...I think I did 16ish from South Africa
	11:02pm Aitch: NZ 3 hrs flight from Sydney
	11:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: There's this Anthemic perception & emotion John Lennon got to - & got across - that no one else ever has. It's not even the wordsmith thing of Dylan (who didn't use fancy words either - just a lot of them...) - just perceiving bread realities ...but then expressing them directly to & from the core - like a Bluesman so to speak... A complex man with a gift for the simple... It's surpringly hard to nail & articulate.
	11:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: *broad realities
	11:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Julie and banana belters!
	11:04pm Julie: oh hey Elton Dean is on this record, that's where Elton got his name. hiya Ken!
	11:05pm Androu B.: Hi, Ken!
	11:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wonder if SoftMachine gets the credit for how early they Fused Rawk & Jazz. Maybe cause they came @ it from the Rawk direction.
	11:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...tho this is maybe more Classical influenced Prawg really...
	11:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Androu.
	11:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Typical U.S. American I am not realizing how far apart AU & NZ are : www.onestopmap.com...
	11:09pm Androu B.: That would be more on target, RevRab. Drawbar organ = prog, it seems. At least that's obviously how it was in the late 60's & throughout the 70's.
	11:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...hard to grasp the expanse of the Pacific of course...
	11:10pm WR: Hi Hi, passing through before passing out. Robert Wyatt. Yum.
	11:10pm Julie: hi WR! He has such a bewitching voice
	11:11pm Julie: ooh I wonder what his solo stuff is like, must check it out
	11:11pm Aitch: Whack your head around this RR63. Menu in the corner so you can see all sorts of things. classic.nullschool.net...
	11:12pm Julie: this is NUTS
	11:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah - this is their Third tho. They were in there early. A lot of earlier BritRawkers had Jazz roots - yer Ginger Bakers & such. Think of Soft Machine as usually pretty 'dense' - their Songs don't take root in my head for their melodies so much as just this impact...
	11:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Aitch - neat-o!
	11:14pm Aitch: Lows go clock-wise in southern hemisphere, anti in northern.
	11:15pm timinoak: Black Sabbath's Iron Man is going to rise from this song.
	11:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: SoftMachine toured early with Hendrix & so on...
	11:16pm Julie: looks like they still make records? heya Timinoak!
	11:17pm Julie: it seems like it was Robert's baby, like what did they do when he left find their own phil collins?
	11:17pm WR: Soft Machine became a franchise. When Robert left no more vocals. Ever.
	11:18pm StringOFperils: Robert Wyatt was a pretty accomplished free-jazz drummer as an adolescent. Until he fell out of that window
	11:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well - RobertWyatt of course fell out a window & was forever wheelchair bound...
	11:19pm Julie: well, here is your spider
	11:19pm Julie: @WR thanks for letting me know, I'm not sure I'd be as interested in without vocals
	11:20pm Julie: is THAT why he left?
	11:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: KevinAyers, Daevid Allen ...what a crew.
	11:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This Sweetwater really interesting. She's aimed straight @ GraceSlick rather seems...
	11:22pm Androu B.: When, where, and how did that incidnet with Wyatt happen? That must've been devastatingly traumatic for him!
	11:23pm Androu B.: *incident
	11:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: STAN ...yeah ! All this about them & I basically don't know them.
	11:24pm WR: Soft Machine 4th had Wyatt on drums, no vocals. On Wyatt's first solo album released between 3rd and 4th. WIKIPEDIA: "4th was also the last of their albums to include drummer and founding member Robert Wyatt who afterwards left. He had already recorded a solo album, The End of an Ear (in which he described himself on the cover as an "Out of work pop singer currently on drums with Soft Machine")"
	11:26pm StringOFperils: Robert Wyatt's accident was at a house party. Just a dumb accident.
	11:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: They were Plastic. :) Could be anybody... Yoko concept.
	11:28pm WR: Androu B: Wyatt fell out of a window, he was at a party and very drunk, sitting in a window, googing around. It was life changing, he often quipped it all turned out well.
	11:29pm WR: * goofing *
	11:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah long past time to get the RobertW story straiight... : en.wikipedia.org... Had been out of the Machine already before the accident.
	11:32pm Androu B.: Yeah, I was about to ask if he was under the influence of alcohol or some kind of substance at the time. there's usually alcohol or drugs involved in avoidable accidents like that.
	11:32pm Julie: ah, that is what I wondered
	11:33pm StringOFperils: The later Soft Machine albums are good, but just a different kind of music, more 'progressive jazz-rock' that concentrates on complex technique and 'prog' in the same way that Gong became Pierre Moerlin's Gong, and Genesis spun off Phil Collins' Brand-X. Music was changing so fast at the end of the 60s into the 70s.
	11:34pm Julie: pink floyd did benefit concerts for him! Hiya SOp!
	11:34pm StringOFperils: Hi Julie! Nice to hear you in this time slot (when I rarely seem to be around)
	11:37pm Julie: this is really fun!
	11:38pm Androu B.: I've heard so much hype about Lothar & The Hand People on the mothership station over the years. I can now hear why their such a big deal. I can hear some Zappa influences in this.
	11:39pm Julie: first rock band to tour with synths!
	11:40pm WR: Have not listened to this Annette Peacock in many many years.
	11:41pm Androu B.: *they're
	11:41pm Julie: I don't know why she's never mentioned in the early synth women discussions
	11:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Suspected there would be complications w/ Marianne Faithful's credit here... : en.wikipedia.org...
	11:45pm Julie: oh wow she recorded it again
	11:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Can't think of a better serious drugs song.
	11:46pm StringOFperils: Marianne Faithful's fingerprints are all over this song. But probably a lot easier to demonstrate in court now, than back then. In any authorship dispute. You can so hear it.
	11:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JaggerRichards kinda gangsters like that. But then no one was going to stop them from putting it out.
	11:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Johnny song for today.
	11:49pm Julie: isolation doesn't count?
	11:49pm David Shortell: Marianne Faithfull says she got hooked on heroin while playing Ophelia in Tony Richardson's 1969 production of "Hamlet" (both on stage and on film).
	11:50pm Julie: that film is really something..Diana Rigg! Helen Mirren! everybody was in that
	11:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No Isolation is a great choice! Another one.
	11:51pm Julie: I dig beatles covers
	11:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...PleasePleaseMe always been a fave ...Townshend named PowerPop in '66 but Beatles were already there '63.
	11:52pm David Shortell: Rigg and Mirren? You're thinking of the 1968 film version of "A Midsummer Night's Dream", Julie.
	11:53pm Julie: oh! You're right! I guess I've not seen the Hamlet...is it as pretty?
	11:53pm Julie: mixing up my shakespeare..it's late
	11:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: DavidS I saw that this year ! Great of course. Shakespeare is All That yerknow.
	11:54pm Julie: I think Roddy was in a version of Hamlet
	11:54pm StringOFperils: I feel culturally bereft.
	11:55pm Julie: Midsummer's really is dreamy..and kind of dirty...just like...earthy dirty
	11:56pm Cp304: live ish on a sunday?.. i gotta keep up
	11:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: England is just this island ! Those actors get around.
	11:56pm Julie: hiya CP304! Not ISH, actually live this isn't a recording...well the record is but I'm not
	11:57pm Cp304: that's what I meant Julie
	11:57pm Julie: well I will be here next week so hopefully you'll remember!
	11:59pm StringOFperils: Thank you, Julie! Have a good night. See ya peeps!
	12:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Julie ~
	12:00am Androu B.: It's been a pleasure as always, Julie! Thanks! Hear from you Tuesday! Good night, everyone! Thanks for the convos!
	12:00am WR: Thank you Julie! Laters all. Onward.
	12:01am Scobot: I requested it, Julie! TY!
	12:01am Cp304: shoe gaze woot woot
	12:01am Julie: thanks everyone!!
	12:02am David Shortell: I recall the 1969 “Hamlet” film was dreary and stage-bound. I love the 1948 Olivier film (though it lacked Rosencrantz and Guildenstern), the 1990 Zeffirelli film (it shows Rosencrantz and Guildenstern being led to execution!) and the 1996 Branagh version (the complete play, with a flashback glimpse of Yorick added!).

	11:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah - this is their Third tho. They were in there early. A lot of earlier BritRawkers had Jazz roots - yer Ginger Bakers & such. Think of Soft Machine as usually pretty 'dense' - their Songs don't take root in my head for their melodies so much as just this impact...
	11:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Aitch - neat-o!
	11:14pm Aitch: Lows go clock-wise in southern hemisphere, anti in northern.
	11:15pm timinoak: Black Sabbath's Iron Man is going to rise from this song.
	11:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: SoftMachine toured early with Hendrix & so on...
	11:16pm Julie: looks like they still make records? heya Timinoak!
	11:17pm Julie: it seems like it was Robert's baby, like what did they do when he left find their own phil collins?
	11:17pm WR: Soft Machine became a franchise. When Robert left no more vocals. Ever.
	11:18pm StringOFperils: Robert Wyatt was a pretty accomplished free-jazz drummer as an adolescent. Until he fell out of that window
	11:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well - RobertWyatt of course fell out a window & was forever wheelchair bound...
	11:19pm Julie: well, here is your spider
	11:19pm Julie: @WR thanks for letting me know, I'm not sure I'd be as interested in without vocals
	11:20pm Julie: is THAT why he left?
	11:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: KevinAyers, Daevid Allen ...what a crew.
	11:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This Sweetwater really interesting. She's aimed straight @ GraceSlick rather seems...
	11:22pm Androu B.: When, where, and how did that incidnet with Wyatt happen? That must've been devastatingly traumatic for him!
	11:23pm Androu B.: *incident
	11:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: STAN ...yeah ! All this about them & I basically don't know them.
	11:24pm WR: Soft Machine 4th had Wyatt on drums, no vocals. On Wyatt's first solo album released between 3rd and 4th. WIKIPEDIA: "4th was also the last of their albums to include drummer and founding member Robert Wyatt who afterwards left. He had already recorded a solo album, The End of an Ear (in which he described himself on the cover as an "Out of work pop singer currently on drums with Soft Machine")"
	11:26pm StringOFperils: Robert Wyatt's accident was at a house party. Just a dumb accident.
	11:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: They were Plastic. :) Could be anybody... Yoko concept.
	11:28pm WR: Androu B: Wyatt fell out of a window, he was at a party and very drunk, sitting in a window, googing around. It was life changing, he often quipped it all turned out well.
	11:29pm WR: * goofing *
	11:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah long past time to get the RobertW story straiight... : en.wikipedia.org... Had been out of the Machine already before the accident.
	11:32pm Androu B.: Yeah, I was about to ask if he was under the influence of alcohol or some kind of substance at the time. there's usually alcohol or drugs involved in avoidable accidents like that.
	11:32pm Julie: ah, that is what I wondered
	11:33pm StringOFperils: The later Soft Machine albums are good, but just a different kind of music, more 'progressive jazz-rock' that concentrates on complex technique and 'prog' in the same way that Gong became Pierre Moerlin's Gong, and Genesis spun off Phil Collins' Brand-X. Music was changing so fast at the end of the 60s into the 70s.
	11:34pm Julie: pink floyd did benefit concerts for him! Hiya SOp!
	11:34pm StringOFperils: Hi Julie! Nice to hear you in this time slot (when I rarely seem to be around)
	11:37pm Julie: this is really fun!
	11:38pm Androu B.: I've heard so much hype about Lothar & The Hand People on the mothership station over the years. I can now hear why their such a big deal. I can hear some Zappa influences in this.
	11:39pm Julie: first rock band to tour with synths!
	11:40pm WR: Have not listened to this Annette Peacock in many many years.
	11:41pm Androu B.: *they're
	11:41pm Julie: I don't know why she's never mentioned in the early synth women discussions
	11:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Suspected there would be complications w/ Marianne Faithful's credit here... : en.wikipedia.org...
	11:45pm Julie: oh wow she recorded it again
	11:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Can't think of a better serious drugs song.
	11:46pm StringOFperils: Marianne Faithful's fingerprints are all over this song. But probably a lot easier to demonstrate in court now, than back then. In any authorship dispute. You can so hear it.
	11:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JaggerRichards kinda gangsters like that. But then no one was going to stop them from putting it out.
	11:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Johnny song for today.
	11:49pm Julie: isolation doesn't count?
	11:49pm David Shortell: Marianne Faithfull says she got hooked on heroin while playing Ophelia in Tony Richardson's 1969 production of "Hamlet" (both on stage and on film).
	11:50pm Julie: that film is really something..Diana Rigg! Helen Mirren! everybody was in that
	11:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No Isolation is a great choice! Another one.
	11:51pm Julie: I dig beatles covers
	11:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...PleasePleaseMe always been a fave ...Townshend named PowerPop in '66 but Beatles were already there '63.
	11:52pm David Shortell: Rigg and Mirren? You're thinking of the 1968 film version of "A Midsummer Night's Dream", Julie.
	11:53pm Julie: oh! You're right! I guess I've not seen the Hamlet...is it as pretty?
	11:53pm Julie: mixing up my shakespeare..it's late
	11:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: DavidS I saw that this year ! Great of course. Shakespeare is All That yerknow.
	11:54pm Julie: I think Roddy was in a version of Hamlet
	11:54pm StringOFperils: I feel culturally bereft.
	11:55pm Julie: Midsummer's really is dreamy..and kind of dirty...just like...earthy dirty
	11:56pm Cp304: live ish on a sunday?.. i gotta keep up
	11:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: England is just this island ! Those actors get around.
	11:56pm Julie: hiya CP304! Not ISH, actually live this isn't a recording...well the record is but I'm not
	11:57pm Cp304: that's what I meant Julie
	11:57pm Julie: well I will be here next week so hopefully you'll remember!
	11:59pm StringOFperils: Thank you, Julie! Have a good night. See ya peeps!
	12:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Julie ~
	12:00am Androu B.: It's been a pleasure as always, Julie! Thanks! Hear from you Tuesday! Good night, everyone! Thanks for the convos!
	12:00am WR: Thank you Julie! Laters all. Onward.
	12:01am Scobot: I requested it, Julie! TY!
	12:01am Cp304: shoe gaze woot woot
	12:01am Julie: thanks everyone!!
	12:02am David Shortell: I recall the 1969 “Hamlet” film was dreary and stage-bound. I love the 1948 Olivier film (though it lacked Rosencrantz and Guildenstern), the 1990 Zeffirelli film (it shows Rosencrantz and Guildenstern being led to execution!) and the 1996 Branagh version (the complete play, with a flashback glimpse of Yorick added!).
