	12:20pm Sem: ↳ David (in London) @12:17 Hello, David. Does your fox-face need a furriers care from time to time, I wonder to myself.
	12:22pm Marie in Queens: ↳ Tony Coulter @12:17 Hey Tony, no worries, it wouldn't be the first time I was ... .. spurned... .. @)
	🥁 12:22pm David (in London): ↳ Sem @12:20 Sem, I do drop into the foxdresser once a month for a light trim (with hot towels).
	12:25pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Wow, Tony you know all the coolest! Yay Harth! Yay Mr G. Harth was on FB for a while then went missing
	12:26pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Howdy Dave ( from London)!
	12:27pm Tony Coulter: Beeg Srahka (on now) = Oleh from Pittsburgh!
	12:28pm rw: Good morning Tony and everyone! Thanks for keeping America great.
	12:28pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: I was very honored in the 80s ago. Aaron Windsor named a work for me!
	12:28pm Tony Coulter: Morning, rw!
	🥁 12:33pm egould: ↳ Song: "Mountain Pit" by "ZGA" It’s a Three Stooges short without the dialogue.
	12:35pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Moe -- I mean, egould.
	🥁 12:35pm egould: And good morning Tony Coulter. Happy July 4th to all you discerning ears out there.
	12:42pm northguineahills: here hopped up on muscle relaxants...somehow dislocated my shoulder while sleeping. got it back in joint . one-handed typing detected...
	12:43pm Tony Coulter: NGH! Ooh -- sorry to hear about your shoulder.
	🥁 12:44pm egould: Moo moo moo!
	12:44pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ northguineahills @12:42 hola ngh!
	🥁 12:46pm WR: ↳ Song: "Cow of My Dreams" by "Fish Karma" Just Like Sister Moo Moo Moo said.
	12:49pm Dean: "Fix me a martini, Marge." The language of the parents of those teens.
	12:50pm Tony Coulter: Ha! Heya, Dean!
	🥁 12:51pm egould: Benzedrine and LSD sounds pretty fun.
	12:52pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @12:49 I thought it would be, "Bring me a Duff, Marge."
	12:54pm Dean: I'm guessing a Simpsons allusion...but I've not seen The Simpsons.
	1:01pm Tony Coulter: Duff beer, Springfield's favorite beverage.
	🥁 1:01pm WR: ↳ Song: "Late for Supper / Spidergawd / Eep Hour" by "Jerr... Listening to this seems to have reactivated some brain cells I thought were long gone.
	1:02pm northguineahills: ↳ Tony Coulter @1:01 a true oregonian, you are...
	1:04pm Martyn: Hey there, Tony
	1:04pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Martyn!!
	1:05pm Rich in Washington: 'Clouds is such a peculiar Pink Floyd album. That era's output is really essential to me but that album always sounds like another band trying really hard to sound like Pink Floyd to me for some reason.
	1:07pm rw: Rich, that's funny you say that. I don't know most of those earlier PF LPs other than what I've heard on the radio and at friends' houses over the years. Opened to playlist to see if it was Pink Floyd that was sounding so much like Pink Floyd.
	1:08pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ WR @1:01 Hi WR!
	1:09pm Dean: Is this a disguised ad for the new Oppenheimer movie? When they were filming at Berkeley I so wanted to photo-bomb the proceedings wearing a WFMU t-shirt.
	🥁 1:09pm WR: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @1:08 Hi Andrew iT,
	1:12pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @1:09 well, there's your problem ,you were attempting the wrong kind of bomb...
	1:13pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Atom Bomb (1977)" by "Ron Nagorcka" my cat is loving this track
	🥁 1:14pm egould: ↳ pot8o @1:13 It’s kinda freaking me out.
	1:14pm Dean: So many innocent lives wasted away by the sadistic horror of a photo bomb.
	1:15pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Atom Bomb (1977)" by "Ron Nagorcka" digging!
	1:17pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @1:14 innocen(ce/ts) lost...
	1:18pm Dean: "We...we were on vacation...at a...beautiful coastal resort. Suddenly out of nowhere, there he was...a few yards behind us beneath the palm trees, while we had our family portrait taken. He brandished two middle fingers. Our...vacation...was...all for naught."
	1:24pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: This a really cool piece.
	1:26pm Dean: Somebody on one of these comment boards a week or so ago recommended C.L.R. James' "Whitman and Melville," which I am now reading. It is remarkable. Thank you, whoever made the recommendation!
	1:36pm Tony Coulter: Oh, before I forget -- an important programming note: Jeff Golick will be filling in for Julie today.
	1:38pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Dean, sounds really interesting. If you’re ever in the berkshires in western mass., visit Melville’s home. The tour guide is a Melville scholar. Melville was ahead of his time in experimenting with narrative structure, at least in America.
	1:42pm Dean: Thanks, Oleh. I am loving Moby-Dick on the second reading. In Tony's Portland I visit a tiny used bookstore (the store is tiny, not the books) on NW Alberta, Melville's Books. I even bought my current copy of Moby-Dick there. But it's not named for Herman. The owner's surname is in fact Melville!
	1:44pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "Dedication" by "Warren Burt" Warren Burt IS still in Australia.
	1:45pm Tony Coulter: Aha! Thanks, Henry! I used to be in contact with him, but it's been quite a while.
	1:46pm pot8o: ↳ Tony Coulter @1:36 jeff golick vs fabio, that's going to be a tough decision
	1:48pm Tony Coulter: If you have two computers, you could listen to 'em both.
	1:49pm Dean: Or just switch back and forth.
	🥁 1:52pm WR: ↳ pot8o @1:46 Technically you can listen to both on one computer, but I find it easier to keep track of the threads of sound if coming from two separate devices.
	1:54pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Tony Coulter @1:45 [plug] He interviewed me back in 2020, now rapidly becoming the distant past: soundbytesmag.net...
	🥁 1:54pm WR: ↳ Dean @1:26 Now you've launched me down a CLR James rabbit hole, or actually seems more like a cavern. Thank you.
	1:55pm Tony Coulter: ↳ Webhamster Henry @1:54 Interesting! I'll have to look/listen post-show.
	1:57pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Dean, I want to reread it also. Hah! Love those kinds of bookstores, too. The tour guide featured a great incisive segment on the creation and editing of Moby Dick. There were many pages left out. It was a greatly rollicking concept like Sterne’s Tristram Shandy, a real mulligan stew of opinions and digressions. But the editor was timid. I wonder if there is an unexpurgated edition. Also so cool is seeing Melville’s writing desk and his view of Mt Greylock which inspired him to consider making the novel.
	1:57pm Dean: I've known of CLR James for years, but never explored until the rec last week. Again, thank whomever...
	2:00pm Dean: I think the guy to read about the publication of Melville's works is G. Thomas Tanselle. I've read his bibliographic theoretical work, but not the work devoted to Melville. His edition is the one I'm reading.
	2:01pm David in London: Great to hear Tones on Tail, Tony. Daniel Ash always an intriguing character.
	2:05pm Tony Coulter: ↳ David in London @2:01 I'm embarrassed to say I've never heard Love and Rockets -- should probably give 'em a try.
	2:10pm Dean: Funny, Oleh @1:57, I was going to state that Moby-Dick is sui generis, but I stopped myself because of Tristram Shandy! And perhaps Rabelais' Gargantua & Pantagruel.
	2:12pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: David I wish the Tones on Tail stuff was more easy to come by here- and less expensively. Only learned about them last Summer.
	2:14pm Dean: I wonder what Satan thinks of all this fretting about climate change.
	2:16pm Jeff Golick: ↳ Oleh from Pittsburgh @2:12 I recently became aware that the Beggar's Banquet catalog is up at Bandcamp, if digital is perhaps ok with you: beggarsarkive.bandcamp.com...
	2:16pm Tony Coulter: ↳ Dean @2:14 Well, if Earth becomes Hell, Satan's Hell will be out of business.
	2:17pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Mr Tony, you never cease to amaze. Love Messiaen
	2:17pm Tony Coulter: Hi, Jeff!! Don't forget, pholks -- that Jeff will be on after me, filling in for Julie.
	2:18pm Dean: Satan will join the gig economy. Airbnb. Uber, Lyft...ironically.
	2:19pm Jeff Golick: ↳ Tony Coulter @2:17 Hey, Tony! And all the oiseaux exotiques out there...
	2:21pm Dean: I thought oiseaux exotiques only hung out at Twitter.
	2:22pm Dean: Speaking of byrds, see this good story about a supreme composer: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/04/arts/music/william-byrd-400-anniversary.html
	2:28pm Tony Coulter: ↳ Dean @2:22 Did William Byrd play the Karl Anton Rickenbacher?
	2:29pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Dean, I particularly dig those vintage wiggy wackos. If you’ve never read Edith Sitwell’s compendium, English Eccentrics- highly recommended. Layered fun enhanced by Sitwell’s droll style. It doesn’t regard Sterne, but all sorts of Sterne like English characters. Weird and wonderful.
	2:30pm Dean: Fanfare's 2000 review of this Rickenbacher recording concludes, "Rickenbacher's is an excellent, somewhat somber rendition with plenty of sound." Not sure, Tony, but I do know that Byrd was a hunt-and-peck kinda keyboard player.
	2:32pm Dean: Davitt Moroney's box of complete Byrd keyboard works is a stunner, by the way. He's at Berkeley.
	2:33pm Dean: And fortunately, Byrd's suit against Roger McGuinn failed.
	2:34pm Tony Coulter: I'm proud/glad to say I met Messiaen ever-so-briefly, in Paris. It didn't go beyond shaking his hand, and saying a few words ... but still.
	2:34pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Thanks! Byrd is the word. I dig him too. If not already familiar check out his Scottish contemporary Tobias Hume. Nicely odd.
	2:35pm Dean: Savall performing Hume is bliss. Yikes, Tony, that's great. Plus you met somebody who met Boulez!
	2:39pm Dean: Fanfare's 2000 review of Moroney's Byrd box: "What can one say in summary? Moroney's accomplishment is vast, and vastly important. It would have been important even if there were one or two weak spots in the finished enterprise—but there are none. It is perfect in every detail: musical, academic, technical, you name it. Once again, Hyperion deserves loud thanks for having the guts to take on a project that none of the larger companies dared tackle, and they, and we, are rewarded with an unmitigated success. A fabulous release, as enjoyable as it is momentous."
	🥁 2:42pm WR: ↳ Tony Coulter @2:34 a great memory to have, Tony,
	2:44pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Wow Tony! Was it a casual spotting or part of symposium or concert? You may already know he was the influence on something called the Spectral School. Composers with a somewhat visceral mystical bent. I always loved the idea of synesthesia - mixing of the senses- where sounds are meant to suggest colors. I have a bit of it myself, also of sounds creating shapes. It’s a neurological conditions I guess. Maybe all those head injuries from pre helmet bike and sled riding mishaps heh heh
	2:44pm Andrew in Toronto: What a wonderful show thanks Tony!
	2:46pm Tony Coulter: ↳ Oleh from Pittsburgh @2:44 I cornered him after a concert of his stuff. He was with his wife Yvonne Loriod. This must have been in the late '80s.
	2:47pm Tony Coulter: He was very gracious.
	2:47pm Dean: Meeting Loriod ain't half bad, either!
	2:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Tony Coulter @2:46 I've been taught to never corner a composer. It'll automatically trigger an attack. If you surprise a composer, I hear you're supposed to make yourself look as big and imposing as you can, but slowly back away while avoiding eye contact.
	2:50pm Dean: I guess Mark David Chapman didn't get the memo.
	2:51pm Tony Coulter: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:49 Yeah, I guess I'm lucky Messiaen didn't bite me.
	2:51pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Damn Tony. Another big fave. Love that Polyrock
	2:53pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Yes, Savall’s Hume is bliss. Boulez is great, even if he was a dismissive mofo.
	2:55pm David in London: I once surprised Stockhausen, but luckily I had some carrots with me, and he responded well to a vegetable offering.
	2:56pm Dean: "I once surprised Xenakis" would somehow sound not right.
	2:56pm Doug Schulkind: Thank, Tony!
	2:57pm Dean: Like "I once surprised Cage."
	2:57pm pot8o: thanks Tony! have a great week everyone!
	2:58pm David in London: Great show today, thanks Tony.
	2:58pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Tony what the … Social Climbers! You’re really spooking vintage hipster me. Love them!
	2:58pm Jeremy: Another top notch show, TC! Thanks!
	🥁 2:58pm Yvang: Thanks Tony, for the show, and please don't burn All your records!
	2:59pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Tony!
	🥁 2:59pm listener james from westwood: Many thanks, Tony!
	2:59pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Thank you Mr Tony! Great show. Great spending it with you all!
	3:00pm asheville jon: Thanks Tony!
	3:00pm Jeremy: Murderer of mediocrity!
	3:00pm Martyn: Great show, Tony
	3:00pm rw: Thank you Tony!!
	🥁 3:00pm WR: Many thank yous! Tony and folks.
	3:00pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, everyone! Stay tuned for Jeff!!!
	3:02pm Erik-O-Vert (VT): Social Climbers ! Has that been reissued ? - Shazam shows me it has a very different album cover. Under Mark Bingham’s name.
	🥁 3:03pm Yvang: ↳ Erik-O-Vert (VT) @3:02 It's been reissued in 2011 www.discogs.com...

	12:19pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	12:19pm Tony Coulter: Hey, hey, hey, Hamster Henry and pot80!!
	12:20pm Sem: ↳ David (in London) @12:17 Hello, David. Does your fox-face need a furriers care from time to time, I wonder to myself.
	12:22pm Marie in Queens: ↳ Tony Coulter @12:17 Hey Tony, no worries, it wouldn't be the first time I was ... .. spurned... .. @)
	🥁 12:22pm David (in London): ↳ Sem @12:20 Sem, I do drop into the foxdresser once a month for a light trim (with hot towels).
	12:25pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Wow, Tony you know all the coolest! Yay Harth! Yay Mr G. Harth was on FB for a while then went missing
	12:26pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Howdy Dave ( from London)!
	12:27pm Tony Coulter: Beeg Srahka (on now) = Oleh from Pittsburgh!
	12:28pm rw: Good morning Tony and everyone! Thanks for keeping America great.
	12:28pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: I was very honored in the 80s ago. Aaron Windsor named a work for me!
	12:28pm Tony Coulter: Morning, rw!
	🥁 12:33pm egould: ↳ Song: "Mountain Pit" by "ZGA" It’s a Three Stooges short without the dialogue.
	12:35pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Moe -- I mean, egould.
	🥁 12:35pm egould: And good morning Tony Coulter. Happy July 4th to all you discerning ears out there.
	12:42pm northguineahills: here hopped up on muscle relaxants...somehow dislocated my shoulder while sleeping. got it back in joint . one-handed typing detected...
	12:43pm Tony Coulter: NGH! Ooh -- sorry to hear about your shoulder.
	🥁 12:44pm egould: Moo moo moo!
	12:44pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ northguineahills @12:42 hola ngh!
	🥁 12:46pm WR: ↳ Song: "Cow of My Dreams" by "Fish Karma" Just Like Sister Moo Moo Moo said.
	12:49pm Dean: "Fix me a martini, Marge." The language of the parents of those teens.
	12:50pm Tony Coulter: Ha! Heya, Dean!
	🥁 12:51pm egould: Benzedrine and LSD sounds pretty fun.
	12:52pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @12:49 I thought it would be, "Bring me a Duff, Marge."
	12:54pm Dean: I'm guessing a Simpsons allusion...but I've not seen The Simpsons.
	1:01pm Tony Coulter: Duff beer, Springfield's favorite beverage.
	🥁 1:01pm WR: ↳ Song: "Late for Supper / Spidergawd / Eep Hour" by "Jerr... Listening to this seems to have reactivated some brain cells I thought were long gone.
	1:02pm northguineahills: ↳ Tony Coulter @1:01 a true oregonian, you are...
	1:04pm Martyn: Hey there, Tony
	1:04pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Martyn!!
	1:05pm Rich in Washington: 'Clouds is such a peculiar Pink Floyd album. That era's output is really essential to me but that album always sounds like another band trying really hard to sound like Pink Floyd to me for some reason.
	1:07pm rw: Rich, that's funny you say that. I don't know most of those earlier PF LPs other than what I've heard on the radio and at friends' houses over the years. Opened to playlist to see if it was Pink Floyd that was sounding so much like Pink Floyd.
	1:08pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ WR @1:01 Hi WR!
	1:09pm Dean: Is this a disguised ad for the new Oppenheimer movie? When they were filming at Berkeley I so wanted to photo-bomb the proceedings wearing a WFMU t-shirt.
	🥁 1:09pm WR: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @1:08 Hi Andrew iT,
	1:12pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @1:09 well, there's your problem ,you were attempting the wrong kind of bomb...
	1:13pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Atom Bomb (1977)" by "Ron Nagorcka" my cat is loving this track
	🥁 1:14pm egould: ↳ pot8o @1:13 It’s kinda freaking me out.
	1:14pm Dean: So many innocent lives wasted away by the sadistic horror of a photo bomb.
	1:15pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Atom Bomb (1977)" by "Ron Nagorcka" digging!
	1:17pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @1:14 innocen(ce/ts) lost...
	1:18pm Dean: "We...we were on vacation...at a...beautiful coastal resort. Suddenly out of nowhere, there he was...a few yards behind us beneath the palm trees, while we had our family portrait taken. He brandished two middle fingers. Our...vacation...was...all for naught."
	1:24pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: This a really cool piece.
	1:26pm Dean: Somebody on one of these comment boards a week or so ago recommended C.L.R. James' "Whitman and Melville," which I am now reading. It is remarkable. Thank you, whoever made the recommendation!
	1:36pm Tony Coulter: Oh, before I forget -- an important programming note: Jeff Golick will be filling in for Julie today.
	1:38pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Dean, sounds really interesting. If you’re ever in the berkshires in western mass., visit Melville’s home. The tour guide is a Melville scholar. Melville was ahead of his time in experimenting with narrative structure, at least in America.
	1:42pm Dean: Thanks, Oleh. I am loving Moby-Dick on the second reading. In Tony's Portland I visit a tiny used bookstore (the store is tiny, not the books) on NW Alberta, Melville's Books. I even bought my current copy of Moby-Dick there. But it's not named for Herman. The owner's surname is in fact Melville!
	1:44pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "Dedication" by "Warren Burt" Warren Burt IS still in Australia.
	1:45pm Tony Coulter: Aha! Thanks, Henry! I used to be in contact with him, but it's been quite a while.
	1:46pm pot8o: ↳ Tony Coulter @1:36 jeff golick vs fabio, that's going to be a tough decision
	1:48pm Tony Coulter: If you have two computers, you could listen to 'em both.
	1:49pm Dean: Or just switch back and forth.
	🥁 1:52pm WR: ↳ pot8o @1:46 Technically you can listen to both on one computer, but I find it easier to keep track of the threads of sound if coming from two separate devices.
	1:54pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Tony Coulter @1:45 [plug] He interviewed me back in 2020, now rapidly becoming the distant past: soundbytesmag.net...
	🥁 1:54pm WR: ↳ Dean @1:26 Now you've launched me down a CLR James rabbit hole, or actually seems more like a cavern. Thank you.
	1:55pm Tony Coulter: ↳ Webhamster Henry @1:54 Interesting! I'll have to look/listen post-show.
	1:57pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Dean, I want to reread it also. Hah! Love those kinds of bookstores, too. The tour guide featured a great incisive segment on the creation and editing of Moby Dick. There were many pages left out. It was a greatly rollicking concept like Sterne’s Tristram Shandy, a real mulligan stew of opinions and digressions. But the editor was timid. I wonder if there is an unexpurgated edition. Also so cool is seeing Melville’s writing desk and his view of Mt Greylock which inspired him to consider making the novel.
	1:57pm Dean: I've known of CLR James for years, but never explored until the rec last week. Again, thank whomever...
	2:00pm Dean: I think the guy to read about the publication of Melville's works is G. Thomas Tanselle. I've read his bibliographic theoretical work, but not the work devoted to Melville. His edition is the one I'm reading.
	2:01pm David in London: Great to hear Tones on Tail, Tony. Daniel Ash always an intriguing character.
	2:05pm Tony Coulter: ↳ David in London @2:01 I'm embarrassed to say I've never heard Love and Rockets -- should probably give 'em a try.
	2:10pm Dean: Funny, Oleh @1:57, I was going to state that Moby-Dick is sui generis, but I stopped myself because of Tristram Shandy! And perhaps Rabelais' Gargantua & Pantagruel.
	2:12pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: David I wish the Tones on Tail stuff was more easy to come by here- and less expensively. Only learned about them last Summer.
	2:14pm Dean: I wonder what Satan thinks of all this fretting about climate change.
	2:16pm Jeff Golick: ↳ Oleh from Pittsburgh @2:12 I recently became aware that the Beggar's Banquet catalog is up at Bandcamp, if digital is perhaps ok with you: beggarsarkive.bandcamp.com...
	2:16pm Tony Coulter: ↳ Dean @2:14 Well, if Earth becomes Hell, Satan's Hell will be out of business.
	2:17pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Mr Tony, you never cease to amaze. Love Messiaen
	2:17pm Tony Coulter: Hi, Jeff!! Don't forget, pholks -- that Jeff will be on after me, filling in for Julie.
	2:18pm Dean: Satan will join the gig economy. Airbnb. Uber, Lyft...ironically.
	2:19pm Jeff Golick: ↳ Tony Coulter @2:17 Hey, Tony! And all the oiseaux exotiques out there...
	2:21pm Dean: I thought oiseaux exotiques only hung out at Twitter.
	2:22pm Dean: Speaking of byrds, see this good story about a supreme composer: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/04/arts/music/william-byrd-400-anniversary.html
	2:28pm Tony Coulter: ↳ Dean @2:22 Did William Byrd play the Karl Anton Rickenbacher?
	2:29pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Dean, I particularly dig those vintage wiggy wackos. If you’ve never read Edith Sitwell’s compendium, English Eccentrics- highly recommended. Layered fun enhanced by Sitwell’s droll style. It doesn’t regard Sterne, but all sorts of Sterne like English characters. Weird and wonderful.
	2:30pm Dean: Fanfare's 2000 review of this Rickenbacher recording concludes, "Rickenbacher's is an excellent, somewhat somber rendition with plenty of sound." Not sure, Tony, but I do know that Byrd was a hunt-and-peck kinda keyboard player.
	2:32pm Dean: Davitt Moroney's box of complete Byrd keyboard works is a stunner, by the way. He's at Berkeley.
	2:33pm Dean: And fortunately, Byrd's suit against Roger McGuinn failed.
	2:34pm Tony Coulter: I'm proud/glad to say I met Messiaen ever-so-briefly, in Paris. It didn't go beyond shaking his hand, and saying a few words ... but still.
	2:34pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Thanks! Byrd is the word. I dig him too. If not already familiar check out his Scottish contemporary Tobias Hume. Nicely odd.
	2:35pm Dean: Savall performing Hume is bliss. Yikes, Tony, that's great. Plus you met somebody who met Boulez!
	2:39pm Dean: Fanfare's 2000 review of Moroney's Byrd box: "What can one say in summary? Moroney's accomplishment is vast, and vastly important. It would have been important even if there were one or two weak spots in the finished enterprise—but there are none. It is perfect in every detail: musical, academic, technical, you name it. Once again, Hyperion deserves loud thanks for having the guts to take on a project that none of the larger companies dared tackle, and they, and we, are rewarded with an unmitigated success. A fabulous release, as enjoyable as it is momentous."
	🥁 2:42pm WR: ↳ Tony Coulter @2:34 a great memory to have, Tony,
	2:44pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Wow Tony! Was it a casual spotting or part of symposium or concert? You may already know he was the influence on something called the Spectral School. Composers with a somewhat visceral mystical bent. I always loved the idea of synesthesia - mixing of the senses- where sounds are meant to suggest colors. I have a bit of it myself, also of sounds creating shapes. It’s a neurological conditions I guess. Maybe all those head injuries from pre helmet bike and sled riding mishaps heh heh
	2:44pm Andrew in Toronto: What a wonderful show thanks Tony!
	2:46pm Tony Coulter: ↳ Oleh from Pittsburgh @2:44 I cornered him after a concert of his stuff. He was with his wife Yvonne Loriod. This must have been in the late '80s.
	2:47pm Tony Coulter: He was very gracious.
	2:47pm Dean: Meeting Loriod ain't half bad, either!
	2:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Tony Coulter @2:46 I've been taught to never corner a composer. It'll automatically trigger an attack. If you surprise a composer, I hear you're supposed to make yourself look as big and imposing as you can, but slowly back away while avoiding eye contact.
	2:50pm Dean: I guess Mark David Chapman didn't get the memo.
	2:51pm Tony Coulter: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:49 Yeah, I guess I'm lucky Messiaen didn't bite me.
	2:51pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Damn Tony. Another big fave. Love that Polyrock
	2:53pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Yes, Savall’s Hume is bliss. Boulez is great, even if he was a dismissive mofo.
	2:55pm David in London: I once surprised Stockhausen, but luckily I had some carrots with me, and he responded well to a vegetable offering.
	2:56pm Dean: "I once surprised Xenakis" would somehow sound not right.
	2:56pm Doug Schulkind: Thank, Tony!
	2:57pm Dean: Like "I once surprised Cage."
	2:57pm pot8o: thanks Tony! have a great week everyone!
	2:58pm David in London: Great show today, thanks Tony.
	2:58pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Tony what the … Social Climbers! You’re really spooking vintage hipster me. Love them!
	2:58pm Jeremy: Another top notch show, TC! Thanks!
	🥁 2:58pm Yvang: Thanks Tony, for the show, and please don't burn All your records!
	2:59pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Tony!
	🥁 2:59pm listener james from westwood: Many thanks, Tony!
	2:59pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: Thank you Mr Tony! Great show. Great spending it with you all!
	3:00pm asheville jon: Thanks Tony!
	3:00pm Jeremy: Murderer of mediocrity!
	3:00pm Martyn: Great show, Tony
	3:00pm rw: Thank you Tony!!
	🥁 3:00pm WR: Many thank yous! Tony and folks.
	3:00pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, everyone! Stay tuned for Jeff!!!
	3:02pm Erik-O-Vert (VT): Social Climbers ! Has that been reissued ? - Shazam shows me it has a very different album cover. Under Mark Bingham’s name.
	🥁 3:03pm Yvang: ↳ Erik-O-Vert (VT) @3:02 It's been reissued in 2011 www.discogs.com...
