	3:01pm worldsworstrecords: ↳ Song: "Gina" by "The Robin Jones Seven" This is lovely
	3:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ worldsworstrecords @3:01 Two really good albums this week :-)
	3:02pm worldsworstrecords: ↳ Song: "Gina" by "The Robin Jones Seven" I feel like i should be in a velvet jacket, with a huge velvet bow tie, sippling a Campari
	3:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ worldsworstrecords @3:02 Are you already? That's how I picture you listening to Modernists :-)
	3:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Neal Cassady & James Dean both 8th Feb. ♒︎Aquarians if ever there be. Cassady clearly a Denver delinquent channeling electricity from the Future...
	3:03pm Mike Rogers: Hi DJ GG san, again!
	3:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:03 Hello, my lovely! :-)
	3:04pm Feldy: LOVE this, GG
	3:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mike Rogers @3:03 Hello lovely Mike san! :-)
	3:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:04 Yay!! Glad you're enjoying it :-)
	3:05pm Domenic: Apply High Waisted Modernists liberally to both ears..
	3:05pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Last night I was recording something for a future Modernists and in the middle of it my microphone stand went crashing to the floor - all recorded. ;-) I've saved that as an outtake ;-)
	3:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Domenic @3:05 Then sit back and relax :-)
	3:06pm StringOFperils: Still hear, feeling the beat
	3:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:06 Excellent! :-)
	3:07pm Feldy: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:05 Can't wait for the outtake show! Flubs, mistakes, and guffaws
	3:08pm Mr Fab: Man, like I’m diggin’ this episode the MOST, GG.
	3:08pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I imagine that 99.9% of the Beat Generation New York is now lost to progress, sadly :-(
	3:08pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:07 I'm saving that for when we can do premium CDs again ;-)
	3:08pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr Fab @3:08 Feel the beat, Daddy-o! :-)
	3:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:07 That's quite the collection of salty language as well. Lol
	3:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:09 *There's
	3:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I love how - as amoral as Neal was in several respects - when he was incarcerated - he actually put himself out t break up fights - was Pacifist in fact.
	3:11pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:10 He was a complex man, for sure. :-) A bona fide genius as well.
	3:11pm Feldy: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:09 I'll donate for that!
	3:11pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:11 Good man!! :-) x
	3:13pm Brian in UK: Evenin' All (he said trying to sound like Jack Warner).
	3:13pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Brian in UK @3:13 Hello, lovely Brian! :-)
	3:14pm StringOFperils: Seems like Neal had no moral compass or indeed any kind of compass. No direction, and all directions, all at the same time. No filter, no impediments, no cares, no thoughts for causality, no back then, no pretty soon
	3:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:14 And a stream of consciousness brain that even Jack couldn't keep up with ;-)
	3:15pm StringOFperils: I don't think there have been many individuals quite like him. It's amazing that he was never incarcerated for too long, or committed to a psyche ward
	3:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I huess you could say that Cassady was The Existential Man. Firmly in The Now.
	3:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:15 He genuinely was one of a kind
	3:16pm Brian in UK: Did Cassady drive the Prankster's bus?
	3:17pm StringOFperils: ↳ Brian in UK @3:16 Yes, but much later
	3:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Brian in UK @3:16 Yep!!! Probably the only person crazier than all the rest of them combined ;-)
	3:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Neal Cassady at the wheel of Furthur: scontent-man2-1.xx.fbcdn.net...
	3:19pm StringOFperils: The stories of him driving a borrowed car through San Francisco sound magic. Glad I wasn't in it, but ...almost too fantastic to be real, even though it was real.
	3:20pm Brian in UK: Imagine the number of books Ken Kesey might have written.
	3:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:19 I'm reciting a passage in a bit about him working in a car hire lot :-)
	3:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Brian in UK @3:20 I almost was on the bus ... they did a tour of the UK back in the 90s and the newspaper printed the wrong day for Brighton Seafront :-(
	3:21pm WM: I tuned in at exactly the right time. Didn't know that today was Neil Cassady's birthday. Your reading reminds me of the first time I read On The Road in high school and then of course, had to go hitchhiking.
	3:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:21 Hello, my lovely! You heard the call :-)
	3:22pm David (in London): Wotcha GG and assembled Modernists.
	3:22pm Domenic: These Apollo albums are wonderful. Very lounge-exotica-ish.
	3:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: There's another chapter title for my autobiography - "24 Hours Too Late For The Bus". lOL
	3:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ David (in London) @3:22 Hello, my lovely! :-)
	3:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Domenic @3:22 They're so good, aren't they? :-) Glad you're enjoying them :-)
	3:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Song: "Zapatos Amarillos" by "Robin Jones & His Quintet" This is the kind of track that needs a smart cocktail :-)
	3:26pm Mr. Oxford: I tried reading On The Road and Dharma Bums when I was 18. I didn't like them though, mainly because the stories did not appeal to a square kid like me. Now hearing this electrifying language, I want to give them another try.
	3:26pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:26 Dharma Bums is my favourite Kerouac :-)
	3:26pm StringOFperils: ↳ Mr. Oxford @2:59 There's your Carlo Marx, Mr. Oxford
	3:27pm Mr. Oxford: I am still square haha, but the language and spirit is certainly getting to me right now. Perhaps I just had to be a little older.
	3:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...' Jack knew that Neal was a ConMan - & Neal knew that Jack knew '... : allenginsberg.org...
	3:28pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:27 I'm glad I've fired you up to re-read :-)
	3:28pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:28 Ain't that the truth! :-)
	3:28pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ StringOFperils @3:26 Oh I liked Carlo Marx's poetry when I was 18. Ginsberg got me intrigued about the Beats for sure.
	3:29pm WM: LuAnne Henderson (Mary Lou) was a beautiful girl. She got married to Cassady when she was only 16! There is a book about her by Gerald Nicosia The One and Only: the untold story of On the Road and LuAnne Henderson.
	3:29pm Feldy: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:27 I revisit a lot of books because after I've experienced the world more, I understand these things more
	3:29pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:28 And thank YOU for that!
	3:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:28 I came to Ginsberg laterally, via my obsession with Haight Ashbury :-)
	3:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:29 That sounds like the sort of book I'd like! :-)
	3:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:29 <3
	3:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:29 That's the beauty of great writing, isn't it - that different things and layers resonate at different times. I love revisiting old books :-)
	3:31pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Feldy @3:29 That definitely makes sense. I shall do that too.
	3:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:26 I came to Kerouac - to an extent the entire Beat situation - in the late 1980s thru documentaries & then such recorded materials. Just as if he were another RawkStar, really. ...Now - I regard Kerouac as significant as anyone & anything. (Even Burroughs said Jack was the first: He knew he was a Writer beyond any doubt or question.) To me - altho Kerouac reverted to suicidal alcoholic Catholic Conservatism... he did the most subversive thing of all : He showed that Everything is Poetry.
	3:32pm Feldy: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:30 Absolutely, GG. That's why I've kept a lot of books I've already read
	3:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:32 That's brilliantly put <3
	3:33pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:32 I love all the "OH!" moments when you get older and a passage or a scenario in a book suddenly makes sense :-)
	3:34pm WM: There's a great photo of LuAnne Henderson in 1940s bathing beauty attire. It comes right up when you Google her name.
	3:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:32 This was the One : www.youtube.com...
	3:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:34 She has such a lovely face!! <3
	3:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:34 <3
	3:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: If you're loving today's show, I urge you to check out John and Laurie's phenomenal show later on today <3 www.wfmu.org...
	3:37pm Brian in UK: I have had an itch to read Patricia Highsmith's Ripley novels. this last two weeks. Think I will scratch the itch.
	3:38pm StringOFperils: WWII must have really exploded consciousness. The rise of the whole Buddha thing with these people. The rootlessness in anything earthly, and the uncaring disregard for systems and rationality. Th social isolation and impossibility of queerness was a part of this scene too. It was like a flower growing in shit.
	3:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Brian in UK @3:37 I'm a massive fan of Wim Wender's "American Friend" which is non-canonically based on Ripley. I keep meaning to read the actual books :-)
	3:38pm Mr Fab: I read “On The Road” as a young teen: my Catholic school library had a copy. To me, it was of a piece with the punk scene I was into: the same renegade spirit.
	3:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:26 ...another point there ...for me, 'On The Road' is not even what it's about with Kerouac. Tho for the Age Group @ the time (OTR finally published in 1957 after years & years of Jack carrying it around as literally one long Scroll Scripture / Road itself) - it was the precursor to all the promise of the 1960s rebellions. Keraouc himself got conflated with Moriarity - his characterization of Cassady - & Cassady did too. Which - why mince words - really actually killed them both.
	3:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:38 AND add to that all the post-War GI education programs. It was a veritable explosion of art, thought, etc. The 50s get downplayed so much but they were the breeding ground for sure.
	3:39pm Mr Fab: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:37 YES! John and Laurie keep Beat poetry alive, every week.
	3:39pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:32 Interesting when you mention Kerouac showing that Everything is Poetry. Earlier when GG was reading from On The Road a line about a woman's "smoky blue country eyes" (hopefully I am not getting it wrong), I remembered how I discovered Ginsberg and other Beats. It was while watching a Bob Dylan documentary called No Direction Home by Martin Scorsese. It showed briefly how Dylan was inspired by the Beats. For a 17 year old me, Dylan was THE poet. And I feel the "smoky blue country eyes" is the kind of stuff Dylan would come up with.
	3:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr Fab @3:38 Very punk!!! Completely agree with you
	3:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mr Fab @3:38 I conceive of it as : Keraouc ~ BeBop Jazz Ginsberg ~ Hippies & Psych Burroughs ~ Punk & AltIndie...
	3:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:38 And Jack was never a fan of what came after, unlike Neal. The whole hippie thing.
	3:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr Fab @3:39 And they do it magnificently :-)
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:39 That's a wonderful connection!
	3:41pm Brian in UK: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:38 At the beginning of American Friend, Dennis Hopper as Ripley sings the opening verse of the Ballard of Easy Rider. He was a good/bad Ripley.
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:40 That's an excellent summation :-)
	3:41pm StringOFperils: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:40 The false promise of liberation offered by the mythology surrounding LSD
	3:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:39 That's just it. Dylan brought the Beat Poetry to Pop. Tho I also note - 'Subterranean Homesick Blues' owes more to ChuckBerry than Kerouac/Ginsberg - even given the Kerouacean title.
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Brian in UK @3:41 I love that film :-) One of my true obsessions :-)
	3:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:41 We could a whole conversation about that! :-)
	3:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:42 *have :-)
	3:43pm StringOFperils: ↳ Brian in UK @3:41 I often mumble Nicholas Ray's line, "A little older, a little more confused."
	3:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I majored in post-war German cinema at Uni (Stunde Null) and I wrote a whole paper on "American Friend" ;-)
	3:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ginsberg was explicit that 'Howl' was just trying to do for one Poem what Kerouac did for entire Novels. His Prose is more Poetic than most people's Poetry. His was just that ♓︎Piscean prophet (& drunk & tragedy).
	3:45pm Brian in UK: ↳ StringOFperils @3:43 One of Wender's Heroes?
	3:45pm WM: As much as I enjoy lots of JK writing and admire him as a counter-culture icon, I have to admit that towards the end he wrote some terrible junk and drank himself to death. Very sad. The Thirsty Muse Alcohol and the American Writer by Tom Daris is a very interesting study of how alcohol affected and ruined the careers of Faulkner, Fitzgerald, Hemingway, and O'Neill. He should have included Kerouac too
	3:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:45 I did a Howl Modernists a while ago :-)
	3:45pm StringOFperils: ↳ Brian in UK @3:45 Yes! There were 7 film directors in American Friend. He was one.
	3:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:45 Kerouac ended up bitter and drunk which is a sad legacy :-(
	3:46pm WM: Sorry I missed your reading of Howl. I'm sure it was great.
	3:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:45 And a cameo by Wenders himself :-)
	3:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:46 I think it was Ginsberg ... let me go check :-)
	3:47pm StringOFperils: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:46 He himself was one of them, yup. You'd be the expert on this. :)
	3:47pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:41 Definitely "Subterranean Homesick Blues" was more Chuck Berry influenced. But a lot of the writing found in Highway 61 Revisited and Blonde on Blonde albums are inspired by literature - some of which I think would include Beat Poetry (albeit without all the expletives and subversive provocations).
	3:47pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:40 A great little summation indeed!
	3:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:46 Yep, I think the Howl one was a reading by Ginsberg, not me, but I did do a show where I read some of his poems :-)
	3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:47 As Robyn Hitchcock says of Syd Barrett in a video about that - Syd had the Dylan thing of no verbal filters on the stream of consciousness. & of course this is the most direct transference from Kerouac & Ginsberg to Dylan.
	3:49pm WM: My favorite Wenders film is The Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty Kick, based on the novel by Peter Handke. One of the few examples of a good novel made into a good film.
	3:50pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:49 Aaah I've yet to check that one out and the Lester Bangs one too. They're still on my list of WFMU show episodes to catch up with.
	3:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:49 We'll have to have a Wenders conversation one day :-)
	3:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:50 <3
	3:51pm Feldy: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:40 Solid analysis, Rev R
	3:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm really enjoying today's conversations :-)
	3:52pm WM: Allen Ginsberg made a recording of William Blake's Songs of Innocence & Experience set to music. I first heard it when I was a teen ager. It had a huge influence on me and introduced me to Blake. You can hear the whole recording on Youtube.
	3:52pm Brian in UK: ↳ WM @3:49 Was it a novel or a novella?
	3:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:52 I love that recording! :-)
	3:53pm Feldy: ↳ WM @3:49 I just watched that, WM. It's on Criterion rn
	3:53pm WM: Novella. PH wrote the screen play himself.
	3:53pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:49 That is very interesting!
	3:54pm WM: Great show! Thanks for letting me blab so much.
	3:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:54 I love the conservations!!! I always look forward to that :-)
	3:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Another thing for me - Kerouac was French & Indian - Lowell Mass. just over the NewHampshuh border (I'm in & from NH) - & bi-coastal & I lived in SantaBarbara. Lots of boxes to check for similarities.
	3:55pm Stanley: Hello GG and everyone. Just tuned in and seen what I'm missing. Thank Ghod for ye archives
	3:55pm WM: @Feldy: Be sure to read the novel as well.
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Stanley @3:55 Hello, my lovely!! :-)
	3:56pm StringOFperils: The music took me places. Thanks!
	3:56pm Domenic: wow. quoted Ecclesiastes. Very nice show. Thank you.
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:55 Very true! :-)
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:56 Thank you, lovely! <3
	3:56pm Mr. Oxford: Thank you DJ GG for a fantastic show. And thank you all in the chat for the interesting conversation. I learned so much from you all today. Have a great day!
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Domenic @3:56 Thank you!! <3
	3:57pm Domenic: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:55 That right! Remember you now bellow NH-ite
	3:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:56 Thank you, lovely! <3
	3:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'll be back on Friday for Part One of 1973 on the Flange! :-)
	3:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This was fun!! :-)
	3:57pm Stanley: On The Road was a huge influence of this teenager. I read it in a couple of days then with the pal that lent me the book, immediately hit the road and hitched to Bournmouth!
	3:58pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:57 I saw it was titled Squeeze Me, Please Me - my favourite Slade song...so I'm hoping for some Slade!
	3:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Stanley @3:57 It's one of those books that just opens your entire brain :-)
	3:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ WM @3:45 I see Kerouac as being like Elvis ...in several ways - but in this : He saw & brought forth a World he himself found no place in. Jack believed in Piety & Beatitude. But the 1960s were Revolutionary. Not everybody jived with that exactly.
	3:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:58 Oh yes ;-)
	3:58pm WR: Hello DJ GG and Sheena Beatsters. Quite a conversation you all have been having while I was listening and half asleep. Fully awake now and this dreamy episode is over. Lovely, thank you.
	3:58pm Stanley: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:58 A state of mind which pretty much lasted for the next fifiteen years. Thanks Georgy.
	3:59pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:58 You're coming out with so many amazing points today :-) <3
	3:59pm Feldy: ↳ WM @3:55 I'll seek it out, WM!
	3:59pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WR @3:58 Hello, lovely! :-)
	3:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Cassady was the first person I met who was the Art himself.' - Jerry Garcia
	3:59pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Stanley @3:58 Thank YOU, my dearest! <3
	3:59pm WM: @RRNov63: Intresting comparison. Never thought of that...
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:59 I'm very into the Beats. Obviously. They're a whole major stage of CounterCulture.
	4:00pm Feldy: Thank you, GG! Lovely show. Educational as heck :)
	4:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you all! :-) xx
	4:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:00 <3
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ GG ~
	4:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @4:00 Thank you, my dear Adam! <3
	4:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:00 Thank you, my lovely! <3
	4:29pm Wenzo Toad: 👍👍👍

	3:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ worldsworstrecords @3:01 Two really good albums this week :-)
	3:02pm worldsworstrecords: ↳ Song: "Gina" by "The Robin Jones Seven" I feel like i should be in a velvet jacket, with a huge velvet bow tie, sippling a Campari
	3:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ worldsworstrecords @3:02 Are you already? That's how I picture you listening to Modernists :-)
	3:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Neal Cassady & James Dean both 8th Feb. ♒︎Aquarians if ever there be. Cassady clearly a Denver delinquent channeling electricity from the Future...
	3:03pm Mike Rogers: Hi DJ GG san, again!
	3:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:03 Hello, my lovely! :-)
	3:04pm Feldy: LOVE this, GG
	3:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mike Rogers @3:03 Hello lovely Mike san! :-)
	3:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:04 Yay!! Glad you're enjoying it :-)
	3:05pm Domenic: Apply High Waisted Modernists liberally to both ears..
	3:05pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Last night I was recording something for a future Modernists and in the middle of it my microphone stand went crashing to the floor - all recorded. ;-) I've saved that as an outtake ;-)
	3:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Domenic @3:05 Then sit back and relax :-)
	3:06pm StringOFperils: Still hear, feeling the beat
	3:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:06 Excellent! :-)
	3:07pm Feldy: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:05 Can't wait for the outtake show! Flubs, mistakes, and guffaws
	3:08pm Mr Fab: Man, like I’m diggin’ this episode the MOST, GG.
	3:08pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I imagine that 99.9% of the Beat Generation New York is now lost to progress, sadly :-(
	3:08pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:07 I'm saving that for when we can do premium CDs again ;-)
	3:08pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr Fab @3:08 Feel the beat, Daddy-o! :-)
	3:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:07 That's quite the collection of salty language as well. Lol
	3:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:09 *There's
	3:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I love how - as amoral as Neal was in several respects - when he was incarcerated - he actually put himself out t break up fights - was Pacifist in fact.
	3:11pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:10 He was a complex man, for sure. :-) A bona fide genius as well.
	3:11pm Feldy: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:09 I'll donate for that!
	3:11pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:11 Good man!! :-) x
	3:13pm Brian in UK: Evenin' All (he said trying to sound like Jack Warner).
	3:13pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Brian in UK @3:13 Hello, lovely Brian! :-)
	3:14pm StringOFperils: Seems like Neal had no moral compass or indeed any kind of compass. No direction, and all directions, all at the same time. No filter, no impediments, no cares, no thoughts for causality, no back then, no pretty soon
	3:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:14 And a stream of consciousness brain that even Jack couldn't keep up with ;-)
	3:15pm StringOFperils: I don't think there have been many individuals quite like him. It's amazing that he was never incarcerated for too long, or committed to a psyche ward
	3:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I huess you could say that Cassady was The Existential Man. Firmly in The Now.
	3:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:15 He genuinely was one of a kind
	3:16pm Brian in UK: Did Cassady drive the Prankster's bus?
	3:17pm StringOFperils: ↳ Brian in UK @3:16 Yes, but much later
	3:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Brian in UK @3:16 Yep!!! Probably the only person crazier than all the rest of them combined ;-)
	3:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Neal Cassady at the wheel of Furthur: scontent-man2-1.xx.fbcdn.net...
	3:19pm StringOFperils: The stories of him driving a borrowed car through San Francisco sound magic. Glad I wasn't in it, but ...almost too fantastic to be real, even though it was real.
	3:20pm Brian in UK: Imagine the number of books Ken Kesey might have written.
	3:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:19 I'm reciting a passage in a bit about him working in a car hire lot :-)
	3:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Brian in UK @3:20 I almost was on the bus ... they did a tour of the UK back in the 90s and the newspaper printed the wrong day for Brighton Seafront :-(
	3:21pm WM: I tuned in at exactly the right time. Didn't know that today was Neil Cassady's birthday. Your reading reminds me of the first time I read On The Road in high school and then of course, had to go hitchhiking.
	3:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:21 Hello, my lovely! You heard the call :-)
	3:22pm David (in London): Wotcha GG and assembled Modernists.
	3:22pm Domenic: These Apollo albums are wonderful. Very lounge-exotica-ish.
	3:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: There's another chapter title for my autobiography - "24 Hours Too Late For The Bus". lOL
	3:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ David (in London) @3:22 Hello, my lovely! :-)
	3:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Domenic @3:22 They're so good, aren't they? :-) Glad you're enjoying them :-)
	3:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Song: "Zapatos Amarillos" by "Robin Jones & His Quintet" This is the kind of track that needs a smart cocktail :-)
	3:26pm Mr. Oxford: I tried reading On The Road and Dharma Bums when I was 18. I didn't like them though, mainly because the stories did not appeal to a square kid like me. Now hearing this electrifying language, I want to give them another try.
	3:26pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:26 Dharma Bums is my favourite Kerouac :-)
	3:26pm StringOFperils: ↳ Mr. Oxford @2:59 There's your Carlo Marx, Mr. Oxford
	3:27pm Mr. Oxford: I am still square haha, but the language and spirit is certainly getting to me right now. Perhaps I just had to be a little older.
	3:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...' Jack knew that Neal was a ConMan - & Neal knew that Jack knew '... : allenginsberg.org...
	3:28pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:27 I'm glad I've fired you up to re-read :-)
	3:28pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:28 Ain't that the truth! :-)
	3:28pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ StringOFperils @3:26 Oh I liked Carlo Marx's poetry when I was 18. Ginsberg got me intrigued about the Beats for sure.
	3:29pm WM: LuAnne Henderson (Mary Lou) was a beautiful girl. She got married to Cassady when she was only 16! There is a book about her by Gerald Nicosia The One and Only: the untold story of On the Road and LuAnne Henderson.
	3:29pm Feldy: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:27 I revisit a lot of books because after I've experienced the world more, I understand these things more
	3:29pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:28 And thank YOU for that!
	3:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:28 I came to Ginsberg laterally, via my obsession with Haight Ashbury :-)
	3:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:29 That sounds like the sort of book I'd like! :-)
	3:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:29 <3
	3:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:29 That's the beauty of great writing, isn't it - that different things and layers resonate at different times. I love revisiting old books :-)
	3:31pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Feldy @3:29 That definitely makes sense. I shall do that too.
	3:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:26 I came to Kerouac - to an extent the entire Beat situation - in the late 1980s thru documentaries & then such recorded materials. Just as if he were another RawkStar, really. ...Now - I regard Kerouac as significant as anyone & anything. (Even Burroughs said Jack was the first: He knew he was a Writer beyond any doubt or question.) To me - altho Kerouac reverted to suicidal alcoholic Catholic Conservatism... he did the most subversive thing of all : He showed that Everything is Poetry.
	3:32pm Feldy: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:30 Absolutely, GG. That's why I've kept a lot of books I've already read
	3:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:32 That's brilliantly put <3
	3:33pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @3:32 I love all the "OH!" moments when you get older and a passage or a scenario in a book suddenly makes sense :-)
	3:34pm WM: There's a great photo of LuAnne Henderson in 1940s bathing beauty attire. It comes right up when you Google her name.
	3:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:32 This was the One : www.youtube.com...
	3:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:34 She has such a lovely face!! <3
	3:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:34 <3
	3:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: If you're loving today's show, I urge you to check out John and Laurie's phenomenal show later on today <3 www.wfmu.org...
	3:37pm Brian in UK: I have had an itch to read Patricia Highsmith's Ripley novels. this last two weeks. Think I will scratch the itch.
	3:38pm StringOFperils: WWII must have really exploded consciousness. The rise of the whole Buddha thing with these people. The rootlessness in anything earthly, and the uncaring disregard for systems and rationality. Th social isolation and impossibility of queerness was a part of this scene too. It was like a flower growing in shit.
	3:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Brian in UK @3:37 I'm a massive fan of Wim Wender's "American Friend" which is non-canonically based on Ripley. I keep meaning to read the actual books :-)
	3:38pm Mr Fab: I read “On The Road” as a young teen: my Catholic school library had a copy. To me, it was of a piece with the punk scene I was into: the same renegade spirit.
	3:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:26 ...another point there ...for me, 'On The Road' is not even what it's about with Kerouac. Tho for the Age Group @ the time (OTR finally published in 1957 after years & years of Jack carrying it around as literally one long Scroll Scripture / Road itself) - it was the precursor to all the promise of the 1960s rebellions. Keraouc himself got conflated with Moriarity - his characterization of Cassady - & Cassady did too. Which - why mince words - really actually killed them both.
	3:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:38 AND add to that all the post-War GI education programs. It was a veritable explosion of art, thought, etc. The 50s get downplayed so much but they were the breeding ground for sure.
	3:39pm Mr Fab: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:37 YES! John and Laurie keep Beat poetry alive, every week.
	3:39pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:32 Interesting when you mention Kerouac showing that Everything is Poetry. Earlier when GG was reading from On The Road a line about a woman's "smoky blue country eyes" (hopefully I am not getting it wrong), I remembered how I discovered Ginsberg and other Beats. It was while watching a Bob Dylan documentary called No Direction Home by Martin Scorsese. It showed briefly how Dylan was inspired by the Beats. For a 17 year old me, Dylan was THE poet. And I feel the "smoky blue country eyes" is the kind of stuff Dylan would come up with.
	3:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr Fab @3:38 Very punk!!! Completely agree with you
	3:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mr Fab @3:38 I conceive of it as : Keraouc ~ BeBop Jazz Ginsberg ~ Hippies & Psych Burroughs ~ Punk & AltIndie...
	3:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:38 And Jack was never a fan of what came after, unlike Neal. The whole hippie thing.
	3:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr Fab @3:39 And they do it magnificently :-)
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:39 That's a wonderful connection!
	3:41pm Brian in UK: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:38 At the beginning of American Friend, Dennis Hopper as Ripley sings the opening verse of the Ballard of Easy Rider. He was a good/bad Ripley.
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:40 That's an excellent summation :-)
	3:41pm StringOFperils: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:40 The false promise of liberation offered by the mythology surrounding LSD
	3:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:39 That's just it. Dylan brought the Beat Poetry to Pop. Tho I also note - 'Subterranean Homesick Blues' owes more to ChuckBerry than Kerouac/Ginsberg - even given the Kerouacean title.
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Brian in UK @3:41 I love that film :-) One of my true obsessions :-)
	3:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:41 We could a whole conversation about that! :-)
	3:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:42 *have :-)
	3:43pm StringOFperils: ↳ Brian in UK @3:41 I often mumble Nicholas Ray's line, "A little older, a little more confused."
	3:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I majored in post-war German cinema at Uni (Stunde Null) and I wrote a whole paper on "American Friend" ;-)
	3:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ginsberg was explicit that 'Howl' was just trying to do for one Poem what Kerouac did for entire Novels. His Prose is more Poetic than most people's Poetry. His was just that ♓︎Piscean prophet (& drunk & tragedy).
	3:45pm Brian in UK: ↳ StringOFperils @3:43 One of Wender's Heroes?
	3:45pm WM: As much as I enjoy lots of JK writing and admire him as a counter-culture icon, I have to admit that towards the end he wrote some terrible junk and drank himself to death. Very sad. The Thirsty Muse Alcohol and the American Writer by Tom Daris is a very interesting study of how alcohol affected and ruined the careers of Faulkner, Fitzgerald, Hemingway, and O'Neill. He should have included Kerouac too
	3:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:45 I did a Howl Modernists a while ago :-)
	3:45pm StringOFperils: ↳ Brian in UK @3:45 Yes! There were 7 film directors in American Friend. He was one.
	3:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:45 Kerouac ended up bitter and drunk which is a sad legacy :-(
	3:46pm WM: Sorry I missed your reading of Howl. I'm sure it was great.
	3:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:45 And a cameo by Wenders himself :-)
	3:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:46 I think it was Ginsberg ... let me go check :-)
	3:47pm StringOFperils: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:46 He himself was one of them, yup. You'd be the expert on this. :)
	3:47pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:41 Definitely "Subterranean Homesick Blues" was more Chuck Berry influenced. But a lot of the writing found in Highway 61 Revisited and Blonde on Blonde albums are inspired by literature - some of which I think would include Beat Poetry (albeit without all the expletives and subversive provocations).
	3:47pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:40 A great little summation indeed!
	3:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:46 Yep, I think the Howl one was a reading by Ginsberg, not me, but I did do a show where I read some of his poems :-)
	3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:47 As Robyn Hitchcock says of Syd Barrett in a video about that - Syd had the Dylan thing of no verbal filters on the stream of consciousness. & of course this is the most direct transference from Kerouac & Ginsberg to Dylan.
	3:49pm WM: My favorite Wenders film is The Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty Kick, based on the novel by Peter Handke. One of the few examples of a good novel made into a good film.
	3:50pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:49 Aaah I've yet to check that one out and the Lester Bangs one too. They're still on my list of WFMU show episodes to catch up with.
	3:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:49 We'll have to have a Wenders conversation one day :-)
	3:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:50 <3
	3:51pm Feldy: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:40 Solid analysis, Rev R
	3:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm really enjoying today's conversations :-)
	3:52pm WM: Allen Ginsberg made a recording of William Blake's Songs of Innocence & Experience set to music. I first heard it when I was a teen ager. It had a huge influence on me and introduced me to Blake. You can hear the whole recording on Youtube.
	3:52pm Brian in UK: ↳ WM @3:49 Was it a novel or a novella?
	3:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:52 I love that recording! :-)
	3:53pm Feldy: ↳ WM @3:49 I just watched that, WM. It's on Criterion rn
	3:53pm WM: Novella. PH wrote the screen play himself.
	3:53pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:49 That is very interesting!
	3:54pm WM: Great show! Thanks for letting me blab so much.
	3:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WM @3:54 I love the conservations!!! I always look forward to that :-)
	3:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Another thing for me - Kerouac was French & Indian - Lowell Mass. just over the NewHampshuh border (I'm in & from NH) - & bi-coastal & I lived in SantaBarbara. Lots of boxes to check for similarities.
	3:55pm Stanley: Hello GG and everyone. Just tuned in and seen what I'm missing. Thank Ghod for ye archives
	3:55pm WM: @Feldy: Be sure to read the novel as well.
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Stanley @3:55 Hello, my lovely!! :-)
	3:56pm StringOFperils: The music took me places. Thanks!
	3:56pm Domenic: wow. quoted Ecclesiastes. Very nice show. Thank you.
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:55 Very true! :-)
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ StringOFperils @3:56 Thank you, lovely! <3
	3:56pm Mr. Oxford: Thank you DJ GG for a fantastic show. And thank you all in the chat for the interesting conversation. I learned so much from you all today. Have a great day!
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Domenic @3:56 Thank you!! <3
	3:57pm Domenic: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:55 That right! Remember you now bellow NH-ite
	3:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:56 Thank you, lovely! <3
	3:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'll be back on Friday for Part One of 1973 on the Flange! :-)
	3:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This was fun!! :-)
	3:57pm Stanley: On The Road was a huge influence of this teenager. I read it in a couple of days then with the pal that lent me the book, immediately hit the road and hitched to Bournmouth!
	3:58pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:57 I saw it was titled Squeeze Me, Please Me - my favourite Slade song...so I'm hoping for some Slade!
	3:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Stanley @3:57 It's one of those books that just opens your entire brain :-)
	3:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ WM @3:45 I see Kerouac as being like Elvis ...in several ways - but in this : He saw & brought forth a World he himself found no place in. Jack believed in Piety & Beatitude. But the 1960s were Revolutionary. Not everybody jived with that exactly.
	3:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Mr. Oxford @3:58 Oh yes ;-)
	3:58pm WR: Hello DJ GG and Sheena Beatsters. Quite a conversation you all have been having while I was listening and half asleep. Fully awake now and this dreamy episode is over. Lovely, thank you.
	3:58pm Stanley: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:58 A state of mind which pretty much lasted for the next fifiteen years. Thanks Georgy.
	3:59pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:58 You're coming out with so many amazing points today :-) <3
	3:59pm Feldy: ↳ WM @3:55 I'll seek it out, WM!
	3:59pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ WR @3:58 Hello, lovely! :-)
	3:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Cassady was the first person I met who was the Art himself.' - Jerry Garcia
	3:59pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Stanley @3:58 Thank YOU, my dearest! <3
	3:59pm WM: @RRNov63: Intresting comparison. Never thought of that...
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ DJ GeorgyGirl @3:59 I'm very into the Beats. Obviously. They're a whole major stage of CounterCulture.
	4:00pm Feldy: Thank you, GG! Lovely show. Educational as heck :)
	4:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you all! :-) xx
	4:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:00 <3
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ GG ~
	4:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Feldy @4:00 Thank you, my dear Adam! <3
	4:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:00 Thank you, my lovely! <3
