A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

  9:58am
listener mark:

the song just hits an emotional nerve, like "Dirt", the Johnny Cash version
  10:01am
Cecile:

Aw, missed Wichita Lineman.
I have a verseion by reggae singer Dennis Brown when he was 16 that's amazing.
He sings about snow so beautifully, and you know he had never seen any at that point.
  10:04am
PMD:

Thank you trouble!
  10:07am
Cecile:

How about the Richard Gottehrer great nuturing of talent deal? He wrote great songs for girl groups and produced early Blondie records.
  10:08am
Matt From Boston:

Nice recommendation on the Dennis Brown Wichita Lineman Cecile. Listening now,courtesy of youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqz3lgnroVc .
  10:09am
Don Cherry:

Let's not forget the great Bruins team I coached with Orr, Cheevers, Esposito. All good Canadian boys btw.
  10:12am
annie:

hey matt, have you heard of january broke? just curious if they are getting press.
  10:14am
Matt From Boston:

Why no annie, I haven't, by your comment I'm assuming they are from Boston
  10:15am
annie:

yes, matt ; newly formed. a good friend of mine. he hits the cafes, and still busks around the metro stops. jeremy..
  10:16am
Cecile:

matt from b-town, it is really beautiful. He was an old soul.
  10:19am
Parq:

Nutz, missed "Church On Time". I actually sang that, in a HS talent show back in the bronze age. Baby Jane did it much better, I'm sure.
  10:20am
Ornette Coleman:

What the hell are you talking about Don?
  10:21am
Cecile:

I love Joe Harriot.
  10:21am
Matt From Boston:

Annie, I'll look them up. Cecile, listening to the Dennis Brown brought up The Dells doing Wichita Lineman. Different, but also very cool http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZWND2WTp5M&feature=related&pos=1 . Perhaps a Wichita Lineman show is in order. But certainly enjoying this ooh child. Thanks Trouble!
  10:22am
Flight of the Conchords:

A hockey coach and a multi-instrumentalist, ooer.

Much more impressive than a pastry chef and a sniper.
  10:23am
Cecile:

I love Tina singing the soul-rock.
Can't help it.
  10:23am
Peter K.:

Hey Trouble, great show as always, but that Joe Harriot track was not "Cherokee." It was "Out of Nowhere." If the label/booklet says otherwise, the label/booklet is wrong. Trust me on this!
  10:24am
Parq:

FOTC, I beg to differ. Very little in this world is more impressive than a good pastry chef.
  10:24am
dc pat:

Koko?
  10:25am
still b/p:

A pastry chef, a sniper and a hockey coach walk into a jazz joint...
  10:25am
GP:

10-4 on that Cecile. I did not know whop this was until I looked..sounded like what we call "swamp-pop" in East Texas or over in Cajun country......good morning Trouble, and everyone.
  10:25am
trouble:

thanks peter, my bad.
  10:26am
dylan:

You ever see a RI red? I'm convinced they don't have them there.
  10:26am
GP:

whop = there it is
who = what I meant
  10:27am
Telling error:

Thought this was a song about shotgunning beers not a psycho mafia.
  10:27am
Cecile:

it's not really a genre, just kind of a lazy descriptor on my part.
I've heard swamp-pop used, or swamp-rock.
She did a couple of Tony Joe White songs over the years, great stuff.
  10:27am
55rpm:

Word has it Mark E Smith berates his young bandmates on stage nowadays.
  10:28am
Parq:

. . . and the bartender says, "We're running a special tonight. I'll give a free drink to the first one of you to make the waitress jump for joy." The pastry chef . . .
  10:28am
dc pat:

FotC, don't poopoo a good sniper either.
  10:28am
GP:

Thanks Cecile, I'll have to look for those.
  10:28am
Flight of the Conchords:

No, Lisa, the bastard girl. DCP.
  10:29am
dc pat:

this is probably the only Jam song I can still listen to without cringing...
  10:29am
Cecile:

55 rpm, Mark E. has done way worse to his bandmates over the years. Like beat the crap out of them. He did jail time in the states for those kind of antics.
  10:30am
Brian C.:

Wow, what an awesome version of Art School! Thanks!
  10:31am
trouble:

happy birthday brian!
  10:32am
doug from dc:

and don't even ask about what MES did to the squirrels.
  10:33am
Don Cherry:

Nothing wrong with droppin' the gloves now & then.
  10:34am

OK, ok, HOLD IT! There's too much shit I missing here. Everybody explain what you're talking about, one at a time...go.
  10:36am
jaamesie:

its was my birthday on 2nd June and William English's birthday is today -- happy birthday, Brian
  10:36am
Jemaine Clemaine (fotc):

I'm referring to Lisa the bastard girl who had sex on top of my friend Bret by saying she was not only a pastry chef, but also a sniper. Who was going to Iraq. But she was pretty hot, whew. So hot she made me sexist.
  10:36am
doug from dc:

Sorry to be cryptical. http://tinyurl.com/mes-vs-squirrels

We pulled dc pat's jersey over his head!
  10:38am
Jenniqua:

Trouble! Glad you mention the NYorker cover. Long live the printed page!
  10:39am
dc pat:

Funny! ok, all caught up. Thanks, back to the flow...
  10:39am
Cecile's Dad by proxy:

Tell that Pommie wino that a pellet gun works a whole hell of a lot better.
  10:41am
?:

Thanks. Peel Sessions is late addition to bday list
Happy belated, jaamesie
  10:43am
gbrust:

Is the Guy on the NYer cover an alien, or is he simply a mutated man of the future realizing what really matters a little too late? At least there are flowers sprouting through the waste!
  10:44am
GP:

OK, now I am out of it ( what else is new), but I heard out of one ear something about someone doing some alien dance moves or something...what was that about Trouble? Anyone have a link to that?
  10:48am
GP:

Speaking of alien dance moves, does anyone remember that APhex Twin video "Rubber Johnny" from a few years ago? I still have nightmares about that.
  10:48am
Cecile:

The windowlicker one is strange and amazing. And oddly banned from MTV.
  10:54am

this is beautiful...the defenders...

What is she doing to Jailbreak? Gotta be the weirdest Thin Lizzy cover ever.
  11:07am
Curious (Not Really):

What are you doing right now?
  11:08am
Cecile:

she's showing what all of us Lizzy fans know - Phil Lynott is a great damn songwriter.
  11:08am
GP:

Was this Susanna the smae one that was on FMU a few months back? I think she did this live on the show...nice voice that one has.

No question about that, Cecile.

was there a reggae group called the Avengers? ;D

/comic book nerd
  11:10am
doug from dc:

but it's nothing like my karaoke rendition.
  11:11am
55rpm:

Listening to Trouble and reading David Copperfield.
  11:11am
Cecile:

Dude, I need to hear that.
I tend to karaoke everything like the dude from Killdozer.
  11:12am
Uriah Heep:

I'm so 'umble. So 'umble.
  11:14am
GP:

Killdozer! Maybe Trouble will play, non?
  11:18am
Cecile:

this iggy record is great.
  11:18am
doug from dc:

What's the best song you've found on a karaoke song list? Definitely "Virginia Plain" for me.
  11:19am
Parq:

Anybody know who's the drummer on "preliminaires "?
  11:20am
BSI:

Doug: I'll happily supply the requisite margaritas necessary to witness you karaoke-ing Virginia Plain.
  11:25am
we are flying down to rio:

I'll need them to hit the warbles.
  11:26am
Bryan:

What's her name?
  11:27am
esch oder anarchie!:

Judging from his performance in barcelona, dan deacon is a domineering dork. nice ditties, though.
  11:30am
trouble:

everyone sounds nice on the radio, but actually dan deacon swears like a sailor and there was a lot of editing...
  11:31am
still b/p:

Dunno if it fits the arc of the playlist, but maybe Trouble can play Virginia Plain and we all have a fine sing-and-rev-along to make a good June Thursday better, yes?
  11:31am
doug from dc:

I've heard some people rag on DD, but I love the new album. I know someone who ran sound for a venue where he played, and I've heard about dealing with him.
  11:33am
Parq:

Again with this Dan Deacon! "Scuse me for being an ignoromnibus, but who is this guy?
  11:34am
that is magic:

I heard birds in the background on this moonscape
  11:36am
GP:

This Bee Gees track is a wonderful song..what is that sound in there, a mandolin? I could Karaoke this.
  11:37am
BSI:

.... I'll TELL YOU when to SING...
  11:37am
jjjjjjjamesie:

Hooray Virginia!

Thanks, Trouble! If I wasn't at work, I'd be singing along.

Bee-Gees were pluckin' a banjo, eh?

Thank YOU for VP, Trouble.
