	7:39pm Gary: Maestroso! That's the idea
	7:39pm Jill B.: Hi Gary...I'm here!!!!
	7:40pm Gary: Hey Mom! I might call you after the show because I am thinking of coming out to the west coast in October
	7:43pm pot8o: hi everyone! been lurking, just haven't been able to comment
	7:44pm Gary: Pot8o!
	7:46pm tim abdellah: Ooh this Fadela is cool! She's so great!
	7:47pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @7:46 This track literally makes the hair on my arms raise up it's so, gosh, I dunno
	7:49pm tim abdellah: ↳ Gary @7:47 So unusual with no big beat being pounded out!
	7:51pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @7:49 It's the only one on the cassette like that!
	🇰🇷 7:54pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Gary @7:47 Gary, your explanation of this music is unparalleled!
	7:55pm northguineahills: ok, day is done. had multiple interviews, prepared docs... hopefully employment w/in a month. (this is only my 12th comment on wfmu for the day, can you believe?)
	7:55pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:54 All those years of Correspondence School Ethnography paid off!
	7:56pm Gary: NGH!
	🇰🇷 7:56pm Listener Gregory: ↳ northguineahills @7:55 There is plenty of time to make it up.
	7:57pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:54 It's always a cute commentary coming from Gary!
	🇰🇷 7:59pm Listener Gregory: I have just seen the Wagner opera Parsifal (on DVD), and the characters there have a Grail, but it doesn't seem to help them one bit. (Lines such as "Oh, unimaginable woe!" tipped me off.) If they had had the grail on cassette, I think they would have been better off.
	🇰🇷 8:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hullo ! Good to be here.
	8:00pm northguineahills: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @7:01 ahh, missed you on david's show (was busy). that was krys o on friday that recommended theracane..... (I have to admit, i'm intrigued myself)
	8:01pm northguineahills: i suppose we won't hear grails, today...(not sure if they're holy or not)...
	8:02pm Gary: RevRab!
	8:02pm Parq: Hey, Gary. Looking forward to hearing your treasures.
	8:02pm Gary: Parq!
	8:03pm northguineahills: Gary, if we want to go meta, we could get some algerian music played on Italian radio. then, we could have rai on RAI (and if we're lucky, a shot of rye)
	8:04pm Zipperhead7: Hi Gay and Bodegans! Ah, a delight as always to walk into the bodega and hear music that sounds both modern and ageless
	8:04pm tim abdellah: Tlemcen
	8:10pm northguineahills: TIL Gary had a childhood...
	🇰🇷 8:11pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Side one and Pump It Up" by "Elvis Costello" Gary, never apologize for being freeform.
	8:12pm Gary: Zipperhead!
	🇰🇷 8:13pm Listener Gregory: Speaking of which, Elvis is apparently on tour this summer. I am getting internet ads trying to persuade me to go to hear him at Tanglewood, along with a Nick Lowe group. I would be tempted, if it didn't involve actually going somewhere and doing something.
	8:15pm Zipperhead7: Got to see EC in '78, headlining a show with Mink DeVille and Rockpile. Ferocious!
	🇰🇷 8:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Side one and Pump It Up" by "Elvis Costello" Elvis absolutely - but TheAttractions as a Band !
	8:16pm Gary: ↳ Zipperhead7 @8:15 Dayum
	🇰🇷 8:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Side one and Pump It Up" by "Elvis Costello" Sh*t hot. Good recording too. They could make it crystalline now I'm sure...
	8:21pm Dean: I do believe this record appeared in '78 at the store where I worked. The manager, a huge fan, would have pulled rank to claim it. But since the only EC I can stomach is his cover of "Peace, Love, and Understanding," I was not concerned.
	8:22pm tim abdellah: I'm down with EC. I followed him thru the 80s then got interested in other stuff, but still like hearing him. This early Attractions stuff is great!
	🇰🇷 8:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @8:17 ...I mean - the Studio records are good enuff - but what a treat ...what this damn station puts in my head in a single day ...one could burst...
	8:22pm Gary: Dean!
	🇰🇷 8:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Think Elvis is great ...but almost too smart - like - I can hear him Writing when I should just be hearing Music & being affected ? & - TheAttractions helped alleviate this. & - Live even more so :) ...
	8:28pm Parq: Great to hear the El Mocambo album again. I had it on cassette for years, thanks to a school pal.
	8:29pm Parq: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:13 I hear ya, man.
	🇰🇷 8:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ah. So this one got around. I get it.
	8:31pm Zipperhead7: Bruce Thomas is a helluva bassist
	8:33pm Listener Gregory: Ditto
	8:34pm peter: i realized the lyrics to Less than Zero were completely different than i remembered, and looking it up it's apparently the "(Dallas version)", with the words "rewritten to refer to Lee Harvey Oswald rather than British political figure Oswald Mosley. "
	8:42pm tim abdellah: ↳ peter @8:34 😲
	🇰🇷 8:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Oswald that ends well ...which is unlikely...
	🇰🇷 8:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Saw Ramones a couple times. Which is very good. Will of course be people around FMU who saw everything. & repeatedly.
	🇰🇷 8:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @8:29 Okay, so - released & discontinued.
	8:48pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Ai O Itamu Uta" by "Daisuck & Prostitute" i don't believe I've heard this...
	8:48pm peter: ↳ tim abdellah @8:42 which is even funnier because as a kid I always ignorantly assumed that the Oswald in the album version WAS Lee Harvey.. even though it wouldn't make much sense if I had thought about it
	8:51pm peter: I did actually see Elvis Costello live in 2004 .. with the Brodsky Quartet at the Wang Theatre in Boston.. i think he played for like 3 hours straight!
	8:52pm Listener Gregory: It is a great benefit to never be able to identify song lyrics, because then you don’t have to try to understand them.
	🇰🇷 8:55pm WR: ↳ Song: "Ai O Itamu Uta" by "Daisuck & Prostitute" Quaint bit of Japlish. A normal Japanese name: "Daisaku" becoming "Daisuck"
	8:56pm tim abdellah: My fave of the several times I saw EC in the 80s: 3-night run at the Warfield, SF in '86: One night regular show with the Attractions, One night with the Attractions doing "The Spinning Songbook" - set list determined by a game show spinning wheel, One night with the Confederates band (James Burton, Jerry Scheff, Jim Keltner) from the King of America album.
	8:57pm northguineahills: wish i had this... www.discogs.com...
	8:57pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @8:56 I remember hearing about the Spinning Songbook! Dang, lucky you, Tim
	🇰🇷 9:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Have only seen Elvis opening for today's B-Day boy BobDylan. & I didn't even know EC was on the bill! Elvis was all Acoustic & Bob was all Electric - which I thot was pretty canny programming...
	9:05pm tim abdellah: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:00 👍
	9:09pm Listener Gregory: Gary, there is only one Holy Grail. Please inform yourself by watching the Indians Jones movie that covers this topic in detail.
	9:10pm Dean: Or the Monty Python one.
	9:12pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:09 Gregory, I'm with Dean on this one -- Monty Python's is the true Holy Grail
	9:14pm Listener Gregory: Well, in the Monty Python film, the Frenchies claim that “We already have one,” when Arthur tells them about his search for the Grail. Someone is deluding themselves.
	9:18pm Dean: The Holy Grail was the Pet Rock of medieval times. Everybody had one.
	9:19pm Dean: (Chia Pet, Beanie Baby, smartphone...)
	🇰🇷 9:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...they just end up getting busted...
	🇰🇷 9:21pm chresti: ↳ Dean @9:18 Ha
	9:22pm Listener Gregory: Now I am picturing the young Gary trying to get lucky by saying, “Wanna come up to my apartment and see my Grail collection?” And imagining the look on their faces when they find out it’s cassettes.
	9:22pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:22 How did you know about that?
	9:26pm Ike: Just ate at a place called Dun Huang. Good northeastern Chinese cuisine! Lots of locations, we even have one in Sunset Park.
	9:28pm rw: Good evening!
	9:30pm Listener Gregory: “That would be better if it were good.” I have sometimes thought that too.
	9:30pm Gary: Ike and RW!
	9:34pm rw: I know that I would be better if I were good.
	9:35pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:30 It's inarguable!
	9:37pm coelacanth∅: Good evening Gary
	9:37pm Gary: Coelacanth!
	9:38pm coelacanth∅: (been tuned in on/off/on since ~8)
	9:39pm Dean: I would be better only if I were perfect, but these days perfection is gauche, so maybe I'm right there in the sweet spot.
	9:40pm rw: Gary I can't believe you own these records.
	🇰🇷 9:41pm Listener Gregory: ↳ rw @9:40 The Grail requires a leap of faith.
	9:41pm coelacanth∅: i can believe Gary owns these records. i can't believe i own them.
	9:42pm Dean: We're heading into Gettier problem territory...
	9:44pm Gary: Can you guess what's happening after this program? I bet you can. Try! Try to guess! YES. You are correct. Sam Segal arrives with his always-already fantabulous program If You Lose Your Horse! Tonight's episode "Horse Stewardship in North America" wfmu.org...
	9:48pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Saw a Night" by "Kino" kino is featured in the Solovyov film, "Assa" (1987). It features a lot of 80s underground no-wavish weirdness bands. Curious film found on youtube . en.wikipedia.org...
	9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Metamorphoses" by "Strange Games" (marty played this last june, ha)
	9:51pm tim abdellah: This sounds great! I don't think I've ever heard the guinbi so prominent on these early Jil Jilala recordings. But then they did re-record these songs a number of times over the years, so maybe I've never heard this one. Now I wonder whether it's Paco (before he split for Nass El Ghiwane) or Moulay Abdelaziz Tahiri (after splitting from Nass El Ghiwane).
	9:52pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @9:51 Tim, I feel like if anyone would know the answers to your questions, it'd be you! Ha ha
	9:52pm Listener Gregory: Well, I’ve been waiting for Gary to greet me for over two hours, and if he’s not going to do it, I am out of here! Good night, all, and great Grailing, Gary.
	9:54pm rw: Listener Gregory!
	9:56pm Listener Gregory: Hey, rw! Thank you for noticing.
	9:57pm Gary: Listener Gregory! Did I not before?!? Perhaps it is because it is always as if you are present.
	9:57pm peter: I have a Kino cassette but it’s both a bootleg and “remastered”.. the kind of remastering à la Chlangden where they amp it up with new synth-bass and drum machine tracks.. works for some things but in my opinion not this instance
	9:57pm Gary: ↳ peter @9:57 Ouch
	9:58pm northguineahills: Thanks for grailing us, Gary!
	9:59pm tim abdellah: Way to end up - with OG Nass El Ghiwane on vinyl! Great show, Gary -G'nite all!
	🇰🇷 10:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Gary ~
	10:00pm rw: Thank you Gary!!
	🇰🇷 10:00pm WR: Thank you! Gary!
	10:00pm Gary: Night everyone!
	🇰🇷 10:00pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Thank you!
	10:00pm headcleaner: Fine stuff, Gary
	🇰🇷 10:01pm chresti: Thanks Gary!
	10:22pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Gary!

	8:29pm Parq: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:13 I hear ya, man.
	🇰🇷 8:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ah. So this one got around. I get it.
	8:31pm Zipperhead7: Bruce Thomas is a helluva bassist
	8:33pm Listener Gregory: Ditto
	8:34pm peter: i realized the lyrics to Less than Zero were completely different than i remembered, and looking it up it's apparently the "(Dallas version)", with the words "rewritten to refer to Lee Harvey Oswald rather than British political figure Oswald Mosley. "
	8:42pm tim abdellah: ↳ peter @8:34 😲
	🇰🇷 8:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Oswald that ends well ...which is unlikely...
	🇰🇷 8:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Saw Ramones a couple times. Which is very good. Will of course be people around FMU who saw everything. & repeatedly.
	🇰🇷 8:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @8:29 Okay, so - released & discontinued.
	8:48pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Ai O Itamu Uta" by "Daisuck & Prostitute" i don't believe I've heard this...
	8:48pm peter: ↳ tim abdellah @8:42 which is even funnier because as a kid I always ignorantly assumed that the Oswald in the album version WAS Lee Harvey.. even though it wouldn't make much sense if I had thought about it
	8:51pm peter: I did actually see Elvis Costello live in 2004 .. with the Brodsky Quartet at the Wang Theatre in Boston.. i think he played for like 3 hours straight!
	8:52pm Listener Gregory: It is a great benefit to never be able to identify song lyrics, because then you don’t have to try to understand them.
	🇰🇷 8:55pm WR: ↳ Song: "Ai O Itamu Uta" by "Daisuck & Prostitute" Quaint bit of Japlish. A normal Japanese name: "Daisaku" becoming "Daisuck"
	8:56pm tim abdellah: My fave of the several times I saw EC in the 80s: 3-night run at the Warfield, SF in '86: One night regular show with the Attractions, One night with the Attractions doing "The Spinning Songbook" - set list determined by a game show spinning wheel, One night with the Confederates band (James Burton, Jerry Scheff, Jim Keltner) from the King of America album.
	8:57pm northguineahills: wish i had this... www.discogs.com...
	8:57pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @8:56 I remember hearing about the Spinning Songbook! Dang, lucky you, Tim
	🇰🇷 9:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Have only seen Elvis opening for today's B-Day boy BobDylan. & I didn't even know EC was on the bill! Elvis was all Acoustic & Bob was all Electric - which I thot was pretty canny programming...
	9:05pm tim abdellah: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:00 👍
	9:09pm Listener Gregory: Gary, there is only one Holy Grail. Please inform yourself by watching the Indians Jones movie that covers this topic in detail.
	9:10pm Dean: Or the Monty Python one.
	9:12pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:09 Gregory, I'm with Dean on this one -- Monty Python's is the true Holy Grail
	9:14pm Listener Gregory: Well, in the Monty Python film, the Frenchies claim that “We already have one,” when Arthur tells them about his search for the Grail. Someone is deluding themselves.
	9:18pm Dean: The Holy Grail was the Pet Rock of medieval times. Everybody had one.
	9:19pm Dean: (Chia Pet, Beanie Baby, smartphone...)
	🇰🇷 9:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...they just end up getting busted...
	🇰🇷 9:21pm chresti: ↳ Dean @9:18 Ha
	9:22pm Listener Gregory: Now I am picturing the young Gary trying to get lucky by saying, “Wanna come up to my apartment and see my Grail collection?” And imagining the look on their faces when they find out it’s cassettes.
	9:22pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:22 How did you know about that?
	9:26pm Ike: Just ate at a place called Dun Huang. Good northeastern Chinese cuisine! Lots of locations, we even have one in Sunset Park.
	9:28pm rw: Good evening!
	9:30pm Listener Gregory: “That would be better if it were good.” I have sometimes thought that too.
	9:30pm Gary: Ike and RW!
	9:34pm rw: I know that I would be better if I were good.
	9:35pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:30 It's inarguable!
	9:37pm coelacanth∅: Good evening Gary
	9:37pm Gary: Coelacanth!
	9:38pm coelacanth∅: (been tuned in on/off/on since ~8)
	9:39pm Dean: I would be better only if I were perfect, but these days perfection is gauche, so maybe I'm right there in the sweet spot.
	9:40pm rw: Gary I can't believe you own these records.
	🇰🇷 9:41pm Listener Gregory: ↳ rw @9:40 The Grail requires a leap of faith.
	9:41pm coelacanth∅: i can believe Gary owns these records. i can't believe i own them.
	9:42pm Dean: We're heading into Gettier problem territory...
	9:44pm Gary: Can you guess what's happening after this program? I bet you can. Try! Try to guess! YES. You are correct. Sam Segal arrives with his always-already fantabulous program If You Lose Your Horse! Tonight's episode "Horse Stewardship in North America" wfmu.org...
	9:48pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Saw a Night" by "Kino" kino is featured in the Solovyov film, "Assa" (1987). It features a lot of 80s underground no-wavish weirdness bands. Curious film found on youtube . en.wikipedia.org...
	9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Metamorphoses" by "Strange Games" (marty played this last june, ha)
	9:51pm tim abdellah: This sounds great! I don't think I've ever heard the guinbi so prominent on these early Jil Jilala recordings. But then they did re-record these songs a number of times over the years, so maybe I've never heard this one. Now I wonder whether it's Paco (before he split for Nass El Ghiwane) or Moulay Abdelaziz Tahiri (after splitting from Nass El Ghiwane).
	9:52pm Gary: ↳ tim abdellah @9:51 Tim, I feel like if anyone would know the answers to your questions, it'd be you! Ha ha
	9:52pm Listener Gregory: Well, I’ve been waiting for Gary to greet me for over two hours, and if he’s not going to do it, I am out of here! Good night, all, and great Grailing, Gary.
	9:54pm rw: Listener Gregory!
	9:56pm Listener Gregory: Hey, rw! Thank you for noticing.
	9:57pm Gary: Listener Gregory! Did I not before?!? Perhaps it is because it is always as if you are present.
	9:57pm peter: I have a Kino cassette but it’s both a bootleg and “remastered”.. the kind of remastering à la Chlangden where they amp it up with new synth-bass and drum machine tracks.. works for some things but in my opinion not this instance
	9:57pm Gary: ↳ peter @9:57 Ouch
	9:58pm northguineahills: Thanks for grailing us, Gary!
	9:59pm tim abdellah: Way to end up - with OG Nass El Ghiwane on vinyl! Great show, Gary -G'nite all!
	🇰🇷 10:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Gary ~
	10:00pm rw: Thank you Gary!!
	🇰🇷 10:00pm WR: Thank you! Gary!
	10:00pm Gary: Night everyone!
	🇰🇷 10:00pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Thank you!
	10:00pm headcleaner: Fine stuff, Gary
	🇰🇷 10:01pm chresti: Thanks Gary!
	10:22pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Gary!
