	7:43pm slugluv1313: greetings, Gary!

	7:44pm mic_a: I'm back. Yes, we were thinking crank grinders, and it's a mortar & pestle situation.
	7:44pm slugluv1313: ↳ Song: "Persian Cats" by "Shervin Najafian" 😻😻
	♥ 7:49pm melinda: hi everyone

	7:57pm mic_a: Speaking of cats, I recently got a comic book that would seem to be tailor made for Gary and this Bodega: "DJ Cat Gosshie World Tour" https://komikss.lv/ Scroll about halfway down. I recommend.
	8:00pm Paul: Jon Stewart wrote and directed Rosewater.
	♥ 8:01pm Gary: Hey there, Paul -- and, thanks!
	8:02pm Paul: No problem and thanks! Decent movie.
	8:07pm slugluv1313: ↳ mic_a @7:57 omg -- MUST. HAVE.! 😸😸 looks like DJ Cat Gosshie had an NTS radio show too! www.nts.live...
	8:10pm Listener Gregory: Gary, how much of this music is pre-revolution? Would it have been difficult to release psychedelica and the like afterwards?
	♥ 8:10pm Gary: ↳ mic_a @7:57 Nice!
	♥ 8:11pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:10 This set is pre-revolution
	♥ 8:18pm spodiodi: Greetings, Gary and all

	♥ 8:20pm Gary: Spodiodi!
	♥ 8:21pm spodiodi: 8^D
	8:25pm mic_a: kuš is an amazing little publisher in Latvia. Their tiny digest anthology "š!" has me in a comix crush.
	8:32pm slugluv1313: ↳ mic_a @8:25 hi again, mic_a! YES, indeed they are! looking through their website . . . going to order the DJ Cat Gosshie book from them -- i was thinking that it would be super-expensive, with overseas shipping, etc., but nope! still no more than at a shop in Philadelphia -- and i would rather support the smaller publishers directly :) gotta check out the NTS radio show too -- iirc, Merzbow does (or was doing?) a weekly radio program there too thank you!
	8:47pm headcleaner: ↳ Song: "Darāmad (Homāyun)" by "Abd-ol-Hoseyn Shahnazi" Exquisite
	♥ 8:48pm Gary: Headcleaner!
	♥ 8:51pm melinda: nice sounds
	8:57pm mic_a: @slugluv1313 - You're welcome! Thanks Gary, more wonderful music this week. I'll catch up in the archive. Good night, good wishes all.
	8:58pm slugluv1313: ↳ mic_a @8:57 goodnight, mic_a -- have a great week/end!
	9:03pm slugluv1313: ↳ headcleaner @8:47 yes! the entire Let No One Judge You collection is incredible -- totally transports me to another realm
	9:03pm Listener Gregory: Gary, I come only to hear you talk. Is there music too? I’ll have to check that out.
	♥ 9:04pm Gary: Goodnight, mic_a!
	♥ 9:05pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:03 Gregory, you know those times when I pause for a very, very long time? If you "cock" your ears just so, you'll hear music taking place of the silence
	♥ 9:06pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Mithra, Op. 90" by "Alireza Mashayekhi" Hi Gary and Bodega rats! Been lurking a while. This has drawn me in.
	♥ 9:06pm Gary: Evening, Alex!
	9:11pm Listener Gregory: Hmm, there IS something going on now that you’ve stopped talking. Not sure I approve.
	♥ 9:13pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:11 The good news, it's just waves
	♥ 9:15pm WR: ↳ Gary @9:13 surfing sound waves.
	9:15pm slugluv1313: ↳ Song: "Mithra, Op. 90" by "Alireza Mashayekhi" amazing chresti, iirc, you have mentioned this before? along with Anthology of Persian Experimental Music? unexplainedsoundsgroup.bandcamp.com... ?
	9:16pm slugluv1313: feel better, Gary!!!
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:17pm cklequ: I tuned in just in time for the hits.
	9:17pm Dean: When I was in high school in suburban SoCal I met a real Persian young lady, a friend of close friends who were deeply involved in theater education in public schools. One of the family was directing a staging of Teahouse of the August Moon, and the young lady, Nilufar, portrayed Lotus Blossom. I remember her telling us that her given name means (give or take) Lotus Blossom in Persian.
	9:18pm Dean: Correction. This would have been just after the Revolution, so '79 or '80, post-high school for me.
	9:19pm Listener Gregory: Destination: Persia.
	♥ 9:19pm Gary: Cklequ and Dean!
	9:19pm Dean: Digging the hat-tip to Edward Said in the title of the album for this track.
	♥ 9:21pm Gary: ↳ Dean @9:19 Haha, I didn't make that connection until you wrote that just now
	9:22pm Dean: It must be so, don't you think?
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:23pm cklequ: I'm currently ripping my stack of WFMU DJ premiums from the past 15 years or so to my computer and it hit me that I never got yours from last year, Gary. How the fuck did that happen? I should know better.
	♥ 9:23pm Gary: ↳ Dean @9:22 Oh yes
	9:28pm Dean: Tubes. Per the late Senator Stevens.
	♥ 9:31pm Gary: ↳ cklequ @9:23 I'm trying to remember what I did for that last year -- maybe Brazilian rap?
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:33pm cklequ: Brazilian Rap. Yeah.
	9:33pm Listener Gregory: This piece might give me nightmares.
	9:36pm Listener Gregory: Seriously
	♥ 9:40pm chresti: Which one?
	9:43pm slugluv1313: ↳ Song: "Sahari suite (Narrative to Darvish Amir Hayati)" ... so beautiful
	9:44pm Listener Gregory: @chresti, the Safari Suite. That marching rhythm is one for nightmares.
	9:47pm Dean: Tomorrow I will travel to SoCal to hang out with my son at college. Across the street from the airport where I will arrive is a stereo store with a supply of used LPs, mostly classical. I plan to devote some time to those, but I'm mostly intrigued by the fact that this store peddles monophonic amplifiers, a pair of which carry a $0.333M price tag. I doubt they have demo units set up, but good god a'mighty.
	♥ 9:48pm Gary: Hey Gang! Stick around after this show for Sam Segal's If You Lose Your Horse! Tonight's episode: "Is to Walk as Though the Horse Were Still" wfmu.org...
	9:49pm slugluv1313: ↳ Song: "Dashti" by "Nasser Rastegar-Nejad" Santur 💜💚💙
	9:50pm Listener Gregory: @dean, I’m sure they have a layaway plan.
	9:50pm Dean: Oh, shoot, this is that amazing Nonesuch record. Such a national/global treasure, nonesuch.
	9:51pm Dean: Exactly, LG. I'll put $500 down and pay it off in $200/month increments for...ever?
	♥ 9:55pm Alex from Media: Thanks Gary!
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:55pm mackeral: ↳ Song: "Dashti" by "Nasser Rastegar-Nejad" this is marvelous
	9:56pm Listener Gregory: This is a good one, Gary. No nightmares from this.
	9:56pm Dean: I have the vinyl, mackeral. Right up there with Turkish Village Music, no?
	9:57pm Listener Gregory: @Dean, ask your son if he can bundle the price into his educational loans. He owes you!
	♥ 9:57pm spodiodi: Thank you Gary!
	♥ 9:58pm tom tom the pipers son: thank s gary...
	♥ 9:58pm Gary: Night and thanks, everyone!
	9:59pm wimpy: Great show thanks Gary!
	9:59pm Listener Gregory: Great show, Gary, especially your talking. Thanks! Idea for a future show: Hour 1, introduction; hour 2, description; hour 3, recap of previous two hours. That would be perfect, and no vinyl would be scratched.
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:59pm mackeral: ↳ Dean @9:56 gotta hear that whole thing sometime
	♥ 10:00pm WR: thank you, Gary
	10:00pm slugluv1313: enchanting, Gary -- thanks so much! 🐱🐱

	9:36pm Listener Gregory: Seriously
	♥ 9:40pm chresti: Which one?
	9:43pm slugluv1313: ↳ Song: "Sahari suite (Narrative to Darvish Amir Hayati)" ... so beautiful
	9:44pm Listener Gregory: @chresti, the Safari Suite. That marching rhythm is one for nightmares.
	9:47pm Dean: Tomorrow I will travel to SoCal to hang out with my son at college. Across the street from the airport where I will arrive is a stereo store with a supply of used LPs, mostly classical. I plan to devote some time to those, but I'm mostly intrigued by the fact that this store peddles monophonic amplifiers, a pair of which carry a $0.333M price tag. I doubt they have demo units set up, but good god a'mighty.
	♥ 9:48pm Gary: Hey Gang! Stick around after this show for Sam Segal's If You Lose Your Horse! Tonight's episode: "Is to Walk as Though the Horse Were Still" wfmu.org...
	9:49pm slugluv1313: ↳ Song: "Dashti" by "Nasser Rastegar-Nejad" Santur 💜💚💙
	9:50pm Listener Gregory: @dean, I’m sure they have a layaway plan.
	9:50pm Dean: Oh, shoot, this is that amazing Nonesuch record. Such a national/global treasure, nonesuch.
	9:51pm Dean: Exactly, LG. I'll put $500 down and pay it off in $200/month increments for...ever?
	♥ 9:55pm Alex from Media: Thanks Gary!
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:55pm mackeral: ↳ Song: "Dashti" by "Nasser Rastegar-Nejad" this is marvelous
	9:56pm Listener Gregory: This is a good one, Gary. No nightmares from this.
	9:56pm Dean: I have the vinyl, mackeral. Right up there with Turkish Village Music, no?
	9:57pm Listener Gregory: @Dean, ask your son if he can bundle the price into his educational loans. He owes you!
	♥ 9:57pm spodiodi: Thank you Gary!
	♥ 9:58pm tom tom the pipers son: thank s gary...
	♥ 9:58pm Gary: Night and thanks, everyone!
	9:59pm wimpy: Great show thanks Gary!
	9:59pm Listener Gregory: Great show, Gary, especially your talking. Thanks! Idea for a future show: Hour 1, introduction; hour 2, description; hour 3, recap of previous two hours. That would be perfect, and no vinyl would be scratched.
	🇰🇷 ♥ 9:59pm mackeral: ↳ Dean @9:56 gotta hear that whole thing sometime
	♥ 10:00pm WR: thank you, Gary
	10:00pm slugluv1313: enchanting, Gary -- thanks so much! 🐱🐱
