  12:12pm
Pete L:

I have enjoyed your show for some time now
thank you
  12:14pm
Al Romano:

As always, Irene, you begin your show softly yet powerfully. Thanks for the years in my ears.
  12:20pm
listener mark:

good morning
wow, a song from March 6,1967 about war and forty-four years later we find three wars
  12:26pm
listener mark:

did everything just turn purple?
  12:28pm
HΘRNΣT MΘNTANA:

These colors ARE.
  12:29pm
Pete L:

definitely an improvement
  12:31pm
Snortley:

Reminiscent of the artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as.
  12:41pm
Handsome Harry:

Great background music, there.
  12:45pm
Irene:

Hi Everybody! Thanks for the kind words as I get settled in. Harry, that background music is by Ralph Towner & Paolo Fresu. It will get a more play in the foreground soon.
  12:47pm
TJ:

Been a while since I heard anything by dirty three.
  12:49pm
Academic Gav:

Yay! and Huzzah! for Dirty 3!
  12:55pm
clueless in MI:

Irene, Hi. flugelhorn or trumpet?
  12:57pm
Handsome Harry:

Ahhhhhhh, lovin' it.
  1:01pm
Pete L:

this here's kinda music's yer best music ya know
  1:05pm
Irene:

I gotta agree, Pete! Lovin' it too.
  1:15pm
listener mark:

When you're alone and life is making you lonely
You can always go - downtown
  1:17pm
Irene:

I haven't gotten up the nerve to look at it yet.
  1:22pm
listener mark:

So cool to sing along on a Petula Clark hit. Great choice.
  1:24pm
Sean Gostage:

Hey Irene,
Great show, all is well in the universe, our clocks went forward over the weekend so back to the 5 hour difference
  1:26pm
Mike East:

This Huun-Huur-Tu reminds me of the music from the most recent Battlestar Gallactica (which is a good thing in my eyes, er, ears)
  1:27pm
Brian in UK:

Not seen these boys yet but Hanggai are pretty impressive, especially the singer in traditional dress..
  1:31pm
Cecile:

As a former ice skater, I'm always really disappointed that skaters don't skate to more interesting music. I'm sure it's partly because most of them are performers, not artists, but I think the artistic skaters would do well to listen to Irene's show. - she has the most interesting instrumentals Even this Huun Huur Tu song would be an amazing slow exhibition number for the right skater.
  1:37pm
still b/p:

This is like a vocal version of Discreet Music.
  1:43pm
yair Yona:

Such a beautiful song by Mountain Ghosts
  1:43pm
yair Yona:

Goats
  1:44pm
The Jamaican Chef:

They're ghosts after I get through with them, mon.
  1:46pm
yair Yona:

Orphans Lament is also the name of a beautiful Robbie Basho song
  1:46pm
Cecile:

I think it might the name of a Cows song, too.
  1:48pm
BSI:

Orphan's Tragedy was the cows LP, if memory serves...
  1:49pm
Cecile:

Oh, that's right. Thanks, BSI.
  1:52pm
BSI:

It wasn't up to the apocalyptic awesomeness of, say, Daddy Has A Tail, but I'm a guiltless Cows digger.... it's all good.....
  1:53pm
Cecile:

You want me to be honest? I never could get past the first album. It was so awesomely perfect, I just never felt the need to go any further. I mean, a punk version of Koyaanisqatsi!
  1:53pm
Richard from Venezuela:

Good afternoon to all.
  1:56pm
aaron in chicago:

just keep that banjo coming irene
  1:56pm
Cecile:

But then I'm convinced that I'm the only point of intersection for the follwoing:

punk rock Phillip Glass
ice skating Huun Huur Tu
techno remix The Bats
Drag queen lip synch Yoko Ono
  2:01pm
Brian in UK:

Is Roscoe Holcomb related to Malcolm Holcombe? Put your pants on one leg at a time.
  2:01pm
BSI:

Cecile: There's a really bad BSI plundered remix of Mr.Lonely by Bobby Vinton: that's gotta count for something....
  2:01pm
Cecile:

Nice!
  2:03pm
Cecile:

I think my brain resembles the mystery box the contestants on the cooking comppetition show. Canned haggis! Sun Ra! Ernie Kovacs! Cheez Whiz! Rudy Galindo!
  2:08pm
Sean Gostage:

Just loved the Steve Martin track, that's definitely on my "to buy" list.
  2:10pm
Cecile:

Sean, he is a frighteningly talented man.
  2:10pm
glenn:

what's the deal with comedians and banjos, anyway? steve martin, billy connelly. are there more?
  2:11pm
Cecile:

you can't be unhappy when you're playing a banjo...
Didn't the Smothers' pull out a banjo once in a while?
  2:14pm
Cecile:

oh, death and grief and sorrow and murder
*strums banjo vigorously*
  2:17pm
glenn:

tell that to dock boggs, the meanest, unhappiest musician ever.
  2:18pm
JCJ:

@Cecile, yep, Tommy Smothers sometimes played banjo. Also guitar. He said he originally wanted to be a musician but didn't think he was good enough so went into comedy.
  2:19pm
glenn:

i mean, dock boggs was the ty cobb of banjo.
  2:20pm
Many Big-Selling Music Acts:

@Tommy Smothers: Never stopped us, dude.
  2:20pm
BSI:

Actually I always thought the banjo had great "dark dirge" potential. But then, that's me.... (would love to turn a calliope into the devil's blackest sonic oatmeal, come to think of it...)
  2:20pm
Marmalade Kitty:

apparently, whispering can cause otherwise peaceful people to become agressive
  2:22pm
Sesame Seed:

Marmalade Kitty hates me.
  2:22pm
aaron in chicago:

put yer banjo in sawmill tuning, boom it's melancholy time
  2:28pm
Marmalade Kitty:

I suppose whispering is not meant to be heard
  2:28pm
Parq:

If I could just jump in, here, I always thought that the banjo playing at the start of the theme music for the old radio version of Hitchhiker had a sombre, even sinister tone to it. Some of you must remember that one, yeh?
  2:29pm
Marmalade Kitty:

I suppose whispering is not meant to be heard
  2:30pm
Cecile:

Yes, Parq. That was actually one of the two Eagles songs I like. Perfect theme music.
  2:31pm
Cecile:

it couldn't be more perfect if they had comissioned it.
  2:32pm
BSI:

Parq: agreed. That was a Paddy Kingsland piece, wunnit? Gotta get me one of these banjo critters.
  2:33pm
Marmalade Kitty:

I didnt mean to post twice..
playing musical instruments = happy
  2:33pm
Cecile:

nope, BSI - it was the Eagles!
  2:34pm
BSI:

jeepers!
  2:34pm
Cecile:

Journey of the Sorcerer from the One of These Nights album.
  2:37pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

Cecile, what's the other one you like? I bet it's not "Heartache Tonight"!
  2:37pm
Cecile:

One of those weird album deep cut moments of the 70s, much like the country tinged song on Zapp 1
  2:38pm
Cecile:

Take It Easy. It's a funny song, and when you're listening to bad classic rock stations, it still leaps out at you in a good way.
  2:40pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

actually there's some good stuff on Desperado you might like if you like the banjo-y country stuff. I am an unrepentant Eagles fan thanks to my folks constantly playing them in my youth. Throw spitballs now.
  2:40pm
Don Henley:

Though we will never be here again...
  2:41pm
BSI:

No spitballs from here. That's my explanation for the whole Bobby Vinton thing...
  2:41pm
Cecile:

I won't. You grow up with what you grow up with, hence my soft spot for Charlie Pride, Herb Alpert and the Carpenters.
  2:42pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

oh hell yeah! you guys are great.
  2:42pm
Cecile:

And Johnny Mathis is a badass.
  2:43pm
aaron in chicago:

i'm a little relieved my dad never played his music much. last time i checked he had two enya CDs in his car
  2:44pm
Cecile:

Well, I'm off to the doc. have a great afternoon!
  2:44pm
Looms:

Wonderful show and pretty good french pronunciation.
  2:48pm
Pronunciation:

@Looms: May we? Mais oui?
  2:53pm
Mike East:

@DCE - I'm the same way with the Eagles. I grew up with it, but all my friends who didn't give me shit for knowing all the lyrics. I think Take It Easy was a Jackson Brown collaboration, no?
  2:54pm
Handsome Harry:

Highly enjoyable show today. This was a great way to spend the afternoon.
  2:55pm
12539:

Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey wrote Take It Easy, and Jackson recorded it as well.
  2:55pm
still b/p:

Speaking of unlikely intersections and them Eagles....Ol' 55, eh?
  2:55pm
?:

@Pronunciation: absolutely! :)
  2:58pm
Irene:

Thanks everybody! See you all on the radio next week.
  2:59pm
freaking in tongues:

Mais oui hadda widow wham.
