	10:04am HyperDose: ↳ tim from washington @10:03 I'm paddling in the same boat
	10:06am tim from washington: ↳ HyperDose @10:04 Al this is totally up my alley too. What have I been doing with my time?!?
	10:13am Squidocto: Can’t believe I never heard of Ryuichi. My young cousin turned me on to YMO literally the day before he died :(

	10:22am steveo: ↳ Song: "A Wongga Dance Song" by "Ryuichi Sakamoto" amazing
	10:23am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "A Wongga Dance Song" by "Ryuichi Sakamoto" Kind of a "Crazy Horses" vibe going on here. Crazy!
	10:24am Hughie Considine: ↳ Hughie Considine @10:23 Let's s say a "Crazy Horses" effect. This is lovely.
	10:25am steveo: ↳ steveo @10:22 "Wangga (sometimes spelled Wongga) is an Aboriginal Australian genre of traditional music and ceremony"
	10:25am kuba: what a great show. blown away by sakamoto
	10:26am Hi from Holland: Aloha! For one reason or another I can see the guy chuckling when he came up with Wongga Dance...
	10:27am tim from washington: Speaking of Crazy Horses, I wonder if ol' Neil was digging on Ryuichi when making Trans.
	10:28am DjLorraine: I must come back and examine this further
	10:30am Mark: YMO fan since 1980, thank you for the tribute! Can we hear something from Naughty Boys?
	10:31am Hughie Considine: ↳ tim from washington @10:27 Sure sounds feasible, at least auditorily.
	10:32am captain beef fart: there is a fence being built nearby and the power tool sounds coming through my office window accompany this set very nicely
	10:34am alan the painter: nice ear cooking, noh trouble wit sounds, trouble bee happy/hippy, Le's eAr...
	10:34am late for class: YEA DAN, YEA!!

	10:35am tadpoles: Great to hear David Sylvain's voice in all of this. Cheers
	10:36am tim from washington: ↳ Song: "Bamboo Music" by "Sylvian Sakamoto" Sylvian as in David? This could have been billed as "Sylvian from Japan and Sakamoto from Japan".
	10:37am Mack Truck Davis: Epic tune
	10:38am tadpoles: ↳ tim from washington @10:36 Good one!
	10:40am Officer Pupp: ↳ Song: "Bamboo House" by "Sylvian Sakamoto" Loving this!
	10:40am Barefoot Jimmy G: Thanks for this show. Very sad, but wonderful to hear 3 hours of Mr. Sakamoto!
	10:53am chresti: ↳ Song: "Camoflauge" by "YMO" They all just blend together!
	10:53am Samuel Salisbury: Hi Dan. Tuning in for the tunes and tears 😭
	10:57am northguineahills: Good to hear BLT during the day! Sad it's for the occasion...
	10:57am Blobs: Can't believe how criminally underrated YMO is... I connect with so many of my friends musically and yet so few of them seem to appreciate YMO on any level. Such a shame (for them, I suppose).
	10:57am Handy Haversack: Really digging the show.
	10:58am Bernardo: Never want to hear Trouble taking a sick day …but this Sakamoto tribute is friggin awesome thanks BLT! Definitely gonna hit the archive for many listens
	10:58am Blobs: I am a longtime YMO fan but haven't gone deep into their individual catalogs -- this is exposing me to a lot of Ryuichi's solo music. Thank you, BLT!
	11:00am -жеи: Amazing tribute, thanks BLT!
	11:01am Ken From Hyde Park: Polyglot - www.wfmu.org... Radio Ravioli - www.wfmu.org...

	11:24am winston legthigh: ↳ winston legthigh @11:24 *east
	11:26am jazzbot: learning a lot, thank you.
	11:27am Handy Haversack: ↳ winston legthigh @11:24 Keep watching the skies!
	11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ chris in the redwoods @11:23 One could simply put on the archive of this show whenever hosting a party and watch the sophistication levels skyrocket. I wouldn't even recognize my degenerate friends if this were playing.
	11:29am dug: wow! so great.
	11:29am winston legthigh: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:27 they had nice middle eastern restaurants in atlanta last time i was there which was too long ago to mention.
	11:29am chris in the redwoods: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 lol! yes, this could work
	11:31am nibbles: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 Hah! Might work for my friends too
	11:32am joe mulligan: ryuichi's work is so unique that it's other worldly, and also quite catchy and familiar at the same time. constantly drawn to it
	11:32am northguineahills: ↳ winston legthigh @11:18 hellos, winston! nice morning!
	11:32am kwhitehead: Tremendous to hear you again BLT. Amazing show, as usual. How can I direct a pledge to your fill-in shows?
	11:33am winston legthigh: ↳ northguineahills @11:32 yooooo. starting to heat up down here.
	11:34am northguineahills: ↳ winston legthigh @11:33 at least the humidity is still relatively low for us...
	11:36am winston legthigh: ↳ northguineahills @11:34 was at the orlando airport tuesday night picking up my sis in law from queens. the new terminal c is huuuuuge.
	11:36am HyperDose: Can confirm it has indeed heated up outside
	11:37am Rose N: made my morning 🌞🎵thank you blt X sakamoto
	11:39am northguineahills: ↳ winston legthigh @11:36 I try to spend as little time as possible at that airport. It's not too bad, it's just so big that I'm rushing to GTFO. That, and the airport is in the middle of nowhere w/ no transport link (Lynx doesn't count) (when I was in NYC, my brother lived in McCoy, just to the north of the airport, so that was convenient).
	11:41am fred: ↳ Song: "Asian Flowers (ambient mix)" by "Ryuichi Sakamoto" The voices and sanshin are definitely from Okinawa. They sound like a processed version of Chinsagu No Hana
	11:42am coelacanth∅: Greetings BLT Welcome back!
	11:43am northguineahills: ↳ fred @11:41 that ear of yours = very excellent!
	11:43am miketp: in on andata .hello trouble & friends.
	11:45am Trouble: thanks@dan/BLT! so glad you suggested this ryuichi takeover. it was gorgeous stuff these past three hours!!
	11:46am fred: ↳ northguineahills @11:43 I first heard music from Okinawa on his records, and quickly became a fan
	11:46am miketp: hi BLT....
	11:47am joe mulligan: ↳ fred @11:46 that custom made YMO sweater you had made is epic!
	11:48am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "ax Mr. L." by "Alva Noto + Ryuichi Sakamoto" I saw alva noto live w/ Ryuichi about the time this album came out. sooo transcendent...
	11:50am Phillippe: thanks BLT!
	11:51am joe mulligan: ↳ northguineahills @11:48 what city was that? must have been amazing. i only saw alva noto live solo at the FIAF in NYC a while back
	11:51am HyperDose: Always a pleasure to catch your fill-ins. Many thanks, BLT
	11:51am steveo: That custom made YMO sweater you had made is epic, The colors, the pattern, so distinct and so eclectic. A tribute to the music that we hold so dear, A symbol of the memories that we keep near. As we listen to Sakamoto's tunes, We can't help but feel our spirits swoon. The melodies, the rhythms, they take us away, To a place where our troubles can't stay. And as we wear that sweater with pride, We remember the moments that we've enjoyed. The concerts, the albums, the friendships we've made, All thanks to the music that Sakamoto played. So here's to the sweater and the memories it brings, To the music that makes our hearts sing. May we never forget the joy it has brought, And the way it connects us, even when apart.
	11:51am fred: ↳ joe mulligan @11:47 I was wearing it yesterday. I knew Mayuko would do a tribute show, so it felt appropriate
	11:52am northguineahills: ↳ fred @11:46 i didn't get into ryuchi sakamoto until about 2000, so, I had to make the reverse connection as i chronologically went backwards into his colleciton....
	11:52am joe mulligan: ↳ Song: "20210310" by "Ryuichi Sakamoto" i've been saying this is ryuichi's Blackstar, and a kalx dj also said so yesterday on air
	11:52am Handy Haversack: Thanks, BLT! An excellent morning of sounds. This is one to be revisited. Later on, all.
	11:52am abbazabba: This is haunting. Crazy this came out this year
	11:53am joe mulligan: ↳ fred @11:51 do you have a pic of it available?
	11:53am northguineahills: ↳ joe mulligan @11:51 it was in NYC. I want to say it was the Japanese Society. I need to scrub my memory to be exact...
	11:55am chris in the redwoods: tremendous thanks, BLT!
	11:55am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "20210310" by "Ryuichi Sakamoto" dayum.... thanks, BLT, this was a perfect moving tribute that showed us new tunes to even the most stalwart Sakamoto fan!
	11:55am abbazabba: Thanks, BLT. I loved the show today
	11:55am winston legthigh: jolly good show, thanks blt!
	11:55am chresti: Thanks BLT!
	11:56am JetBoy of Astoria: Moving show today BLT - thank you
	11:56am joe mulligan: Thanks BLT!
	11:56am northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @11:53 errr, Japan Society...
	11:57am Crownless Gander: This was a great show! Was just saying I need to check out more Ryuichi Sakamoto from more time periods than I know, so this really did the trick. Amazing stuff!
	11:57am bradford: Many thanks BLT
	11:58am fred: Thanks BLT, great tribute
	11:58am T GRavel: THanks BLT
	11:58am BLT: Thanks listeners! It's been a pleasure

	12:00pm steveo: thank you, BLT such a good 3 hours of music
	12:02pm coelacanth∅: rest in peace Ryuichi

	10:22am steveo: ↳ Song: "A Wongga Dance Song" by "Ryuichi Sakamoto" amazing
	10:23am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "A Wongga Dance Song" by "Ryuichi Sakamoto" Kind of a "Crazy Horses" vibe going on here. Crazy!
	10:24am Hughie Considine: ↳ Hughie Considine @10:23 Let's s say a "Crazy Horses" effect. This is lovely.
	10:25am steveo: ↳ steveo @10:22 "Wangga (sometimes spelled Wongga) is an Aboriginal Australian genre of traditional music and ceremony"
	10:25am kuba: what a great show. blown away by sakamoto
	10:26am Hi from Holland: Aloha! For one reason or another I can see the guy chuckling when he came up with Wongga Dance...
	10:27am tim from washington: Speaking of Crazy Horses, I wonder if ol' Neil was digging on Ryuichi when making Trans.
	10:28am DjLorraine: I must come back and examine this further
	10:30am Mark: YMO fan since 1980, thank you for the tribute! Can we hear something from Naughty Boys?
	10:31am Hughie Considine: ↳ tim from washington @10:27 Sure sounds feasible, at least auditorily.
	10:32am captain beef fart: there is a fence being built nearby and the power tool sounds coming through my office window accompany this set very nicely
	10:34am alan the painter: nice ear cooking, noh trouble wit sounds, trouble bee happy/hippy, Le's eAr...
	10:34am late for class: YEA DAN, YEA!!
	10:34am Squidocto: ↳ captain beef fart @10:32 Same here for the flock of grackles in the tree outside my window 👌
	10:35am tadpoles: Great to hear David Sylvain's voice in all of this. Cheers
	10:36am tim from washington: ↳ Song: "Bamboo Music" by "Sylvian Sakamoto" Sylvian as in David? This could have been billed as "Sylvian from Japan and Sakamoto from Japan".
	10:37am Mack Truck Davis: Epic tune
	10:38am tadpoles: ↳ tim from washington @10:36 Good one!
	10:40am Officer Pupp: ↳ Song: "Bamboo House" by "Sylvian Sakamoto" Loving this!
	10:40am Barefoot Jimmy G: Thanks for this show. Very sad, but wonderful to hear 3 hours of Mr. Sakamoto!
	10:53am chresti: ↳ Song: "Camoflauge" by "YMO" They all just blend together!
	10:53am Samuel Salisbury: Hi Dan. Tuning in for the tunes and tears 😭
	10:57am northguineahills: Good to hear BLT during the day! Sad it's for the occasion...
	10:57am Blobs: Can't believe how criminally underrated YMO is... I connect with so many of my friends musically and yet so few of them seem to appreciate YMO on any level. Such a shame (for them, I suppose).
	10:57am Handy Haversack: Really digging the show.
	10:58am Bernardo: Never want to hear Trouble taking a sick day …but this Sakamoto tribute is friggin awesome thanks BLT! Definitely gonna hit the archive for many listens
	10:58am Blobs: I am a longtime YMO fan but haven't gone deep into their individual catalogs -- this is exposing me to a lot of Ryuichi's solo music. Thank you, BLT!
	11:00am -жеи: Amazing tribute, thanks BLT!
	11:01am Ken From Hyde Park: Polyglot - www.wfmu.org... Radio Ravioli - www.wfmu.org...

	11:20am Handy Haversack: winston! I'm going to Atlanta next week. Is that close enough to Ormond Beach that if I raise a drink your way you'll feel it?
	11:23am chris in the redwoods: whoa! so happy to have stumbled upon this show, BLT! clicky-starred for future revisit and listening from the beginning. :) hello, everyone!
	11:24am winston legthigh: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:20 366 miles to the south and west, as the luxardo flies. right back atcha!
	11:24am winston legthigh: ↳ winston legthigh @11:24 *east
	11:26am jazzbot: learning a lot, thank you.
	11:27am Handy Haversack: ↳ winston legthigh @11:24 Keep watching the skies!
	11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ chris in the redwoods @11:23 One could simply put on the archive of this show whenever hosting a party and watch the sophistication levels skyrocket. I wouldn't even recognize my degenerate friends if this were playing.
	11:29am dug: wow! so great.
	11:29am winston legthigh: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:27 they had nice middle eastern restaurants in atlanta last time i was there which was too long ago to mention.
	11:29am chris in the redwoods: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 lol! yes, this could work
	11:31am nibbles: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 Hah! Might work for my friends too
	11:32am joe mulligan: ryuichi's work is so unique that it's other worldly, and also quite catchy and familiar at the same time. constantly drawn to it
	11:32am northguineahills: ↳ winston legthigh @11:18 hellos, winston! nice morning!
	11:32am kwhitehead: Tremendous to hear you again BLT. Amazing show, as usual. How can I direct a pledge to your fill-in shows?
	11:33am winston legthigh: ↳ northguineahills @11:32 yooooo. starting to heat up down here.
	11:34am northguineahills: ↳ winston legthigh @11:33 at least the humidity is still relatively low for us...
	11:36am winston legthigh: ↳ northguineahills @11:34 was at the orlando airport tuesday night picking up my sis in law from queens. the new terminal c is huuuuuge.
	11:36am HyperDose: Can confirm it has indeed heated up outside
	11:37am Rose N: made my morning 🌞🎵thank you blt X sakamoto
	11:39am northguineahills: ↳ winston legthigh @11:36 I try to spend as little time as possible at that airport. It's not too bad, it's just so big that I'm rushing to GTFO. That, and the airport is in the middle of nowhere w/ no transport link (Lynx doesn't count) (when I was in NYC, my brother lived in McCoy, just to the north of the airport, so that was convenient).
	11:41am fred: ↳ Song: "Asian Flowers (ambient mix)" by "Ryuichi Sakamoto" The voices and sanshin are definitely from Okinawa. They sound like a processed version of Chinsagu No Hana
	11:42am coelacanth∅: Greetings BLT Welcome back!
	11:43am northguineahills: ↳ fred @11:41 that ear of yours = very excellent!
	11:43am miketp: in on andata .hello trouble & friends.
	11:45am Trouble: thanks@dan/BLT! so glad you suggested this ryuichi takeover. it was gorgeous stuff these past three hours!!
	11:46am fred: ↳ northguineahills @11:43 I first heard music from Okinawa on his records, and quickly became a fan
	11:46am miketp: hi BLT....
	11:47am joe mulligan: ↳ fred @11:46 that custom made YMO sweater you had made is epic!
	11:48am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "ax Mr. L." by "Alva Noto + Ryuichi Sakamoto" I saw alva noto live w/ Ryuichi about the time this album came out. sooo transcendent...
	11:50am Phillippe: thanks BLT!
	11:51am joe mulligan: ↳ northguineahills @11:48 what city was that? must have been amazing. i only saw alva noto live solo at the FIAF in NYC a while back
	11:51am HyperDose: Always a pleasure to catch your fill-ins. Many thanks, BLT
	11:51am steveo: That custom made YMO sweater you had made is epic, The colors, the pattern, so distinct and so eclectic. A tribute to the music that we hold so dear, A symbol of the memories that we keep near. As we listen to Sakamoto's tunes, We can't help but feel our spirits swoon. The melodies, the rhythms, they take us away, To a place where our troubles can't stay. And as we wear that sweater with pride, We remember the moments that we've enjoyed. The concerts, the albums, the friendships we've made, All thanks to the music that Sakamoto played. So here's to the sweater and the memories it brings, To the music that makes our hearts sing. May we never forget the joy it has brought, And the way it connects us, even when apart.
	11:51am fred: ↳ joe mulligan @11:47 I was wearing it yesterday. I knew Mayuko would do a tribute show, so it felt appropriate
	11:52am northguineahills: ↳ fred @11:46 i didn't get into ryuchi sakamoto until about 2000, so, I had to make the reverse connection as i chronologically went backwards into his colleciton....
	11:52am joe mulligan: ↳ Song: "20210310" by "Ryuichi Sakamoto" i've been saying this is ryuichi's Blackstar, and a kalx dj also said so yesterday on air
	11:52am Handy Haversack: Thanks, BLT! An excellent morning of sounds. This is one to be revisited. Later on, all.
	11:52am abbazabba: This is haunting. Crazy this came out this year
	11:53am joe mulligan: ↳ fred @11:51 do you have a pic of it available?
	11:53am northguineahills: ↳ joe mulligan @11:51 it was in NYC. I want to say it was the Japanese Society. I need to scrub my memory to be exact...
	11:55am chris in the redwoods: tremendous thanks, BLT!
	11:55am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "20210310" by "Ryuichi Sakamoto" dayum.... thanks, BLT, this was a perfect moving tribute that showed us new tunes to even the most stalwart Sakamoto fan!
	11:55am abbazabba: Thanks, BLT. I loved the show today
