  9:23am kat330:

Brian, I thought you might offer some insight why suddenly we can't stream some BBC programming? I've asked Mayo by email and Philo asked at the blog, no one's responding. Weird.
  9:27am listener james from westwood:

hugo, now that's the type of african hunting expedition i can get behind!
  9:29am Brian in UK:

kat It is news to me. I sent a link on another programme to a Radio 3 Prom show & as far as I know the FMU listeners could pick it up. Try this. Click on Listen Now.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01mdgsy
  9:32am kat330:

That works just fine, Brian! Hm, must be some sort of contract / licensing thing. Annoying that no one will post an explanation or answer direct email.
  9:33am kat330:

  9:43am Hugo:

By the way, there is a snazzy programme that will download BBC radio programmes as if they were podcasts.

http://www.nerdoftheherd.com/tools/radiodld/

With this you don't have to listen live. Subscribe to programmes and they will be automatically downloaded to your computer. These will also cover local programmes, not only the main radio stations. So you can get your Northern Soul fix care of Radio Leeds or Lancashire or something.
  9:44am kat330:

@Brian: Ah, well, I made that assumption, which I suppose must be confusing everyone over Scott's list. Par for my course.

No, I think there is a licensing issue specifically with the Kermode / Mayo show, or perhaps all of 5-Live ? Maybe it is waiting to be resolved, and that is why they're not responding to questions. Makes my Friday mornings less complicated.
  9:45am kat330:

@Hugo: Oh, we were getting the Kermode podcasts years before I started listening live. So we're back to podcasts the past couple of weeks.
  9:48am Brian in UK:

kat some of the progammes are bought in, for what it's worth.

Anyone heard from fishmonkeystew recently & his project?
  9:48am kat330:

Shake it, shake it, shake it!
  9:51am still b/p:

I sat in on a friend's community radio show yesterday. Allowed to pick some songs, on a show with a significant "Americana" flavor, I included a cumbia by Chicha Libre. Couldn't he'p it. Americas-ana.
  9:53am ndbob:

cool and crisp here - it might get down into the 30s this weekend overnight
  9:53am listener james from westwood:

this g.r.e.s. cut is magnificent.
  9:55am kat330:

@Bob: Yes, you're coming our way -- bring it on! We are supposed to have highs in the upper 70s only this weekend, but I see back to our usual 90s by next week's end. So tired of 90+.

@still b/p
Chicha means never having to say you're sorry.

@LJFW
I don't play that G.R.E.S. cut enough as talkover. I think the reason, in part, is because there is so much to type in the playlist for it. Too daunting when I'm in a crunch.

I know, I know, that's no excuse.
  10:00am listener james from westwood:

ndbob, i like the sound of that. i'm quite sick of running my ac all day. we had 2 days recently where i could work and sleep w my windows open. looking forward to many more.

@duke: Doug made it sound like something both dirty and cheesy.
  10:17am kat330:

  10:45am Jeff G:

Actually, scratch that. I think it was on a best-of-year list at Avant Music News (http://avantmusicnews.com/), which doesn't have a lot of original content, but does have some very fine off-the-beaten track selections when they put together year-enders (which sadly isn't every year...).

@Doug: if you say so ;)
  10:55am Matt from Springfield:

Nuts! I gotta listen to that G.R.E.S. talkover music, it's gotten such rave reviews!
  10:57am Matt from Springfield:

You're too much, Doug! :)
Unless this is like Eddie Murphy's "White Like Me" (SNL '83--written by our own Andy Breckman!), where a party suddenly starts when I enter!

My first introduction to Bill Fay was the compy of demos and home recordings "From the Bottom of an Old Grandfather Clock" on Wooden Hill. I adored it straightaway.
  10:57am Van in DC:

Good call on this Doug. Very nice indeed.
  10:58am ndbob:

Agreed Van - don't think I've ever heard him before
  10:58am kat330:

Doug, your one-finger macro inspired to make a pasta sauce for tonight, thus my kitchen duty.

This track sounds to me like some long lost Randy Newman performance. Which is a good thing.

  11:01am Matt from Springfield:

Doug's Sain is our gain!

Hi kat! Was the last set jazz cuts, you know everyone goes silent and rapt when those come on!
  11:02am Jeff G:

For any Spotifiers out there, most of Fay's catalog is, surprisingly, streamable.
  11:02am Van in DC:

Yes Matt we have been utterly transfixed by the awesomeness of the tunes to even think to comment :)
  11:04am Van in DC:

Wow this is nice
  11:04am kat330:

As a morning person, I am fully behind the sunrise vibe, Doug.
  11:04am Matt from Springfield:

Bill Fay's "first new studio LP in over 40 years" -- and there was his 60s and 70s material, this is a great new lead for me as well. Bill Fay is worth checking out!
  11:06am ndbob:

I never was a morning person, but in the last year or so I'm really becoming one
  11:07am kat330:

2012 seems to have brought a ton of artists out of hiding. Must be that end-of-the-world in December dealie.
  11:08am duke:

@Doug It's pretty much impossible to top Billie Holiday on anything. A few people do come close . Early Lou Rawls doing God Bless the Child comes to mind. I don't don't most people would have nerve to try Strange Fruit.
  11:09am Matt from Springfield:

@Van: The brain's hippocampus is totally enthralled by the music in long sets, that upon finishing it's like waking from a dream, and you remember you need to comment! Or even go to the bathroom...

Exactly.
  11:12am ndbob:

yep Matt
  11:14am Matt from Springfield:

Perhaps on this board only Van is also aware of the Cocteau Twins' "Strange Fruit" cover -- that works, but by accentuating the really dark, goth sounds of the group. It's musically intense, less than two minutes, and Liz Fraser herself had to be a great vocalist to pull even that off. I agree it's hard to cover that.
  11:14am Van in DC:

Liz Fraser = awesomeness :)
  11:16am Matt from Springfield:

Hi NDBob!
Likewise, I'm a solid non-morning person, but I've found it to be better if I wake up really early, when it's still "night" out. There's a calming stillness to it, and the late night feel that I love. If I need to be up really early, that's what I do now.
  11:18am Van in DC:

You sure are Matt. You're always on Julie's live playlist and I can never even make it by the end of show. Thank goodness for archives :)
  11:19am Matt from Springfield:

ITA Van! :)
I love Meghan's anecdote on first learning about the CTs from someone else, and they said "I don't know who *these two girls* are!" ;D
  11:19am ndbob:

I noticed that when I was on eastern time this summer, I never really adjusted to the change in time and slept an hour later - getting up a little after 7 now allows me to be ready for the start of GTDS
  11:20am kat330:

@Matt: The decade I was on the stage I obviously had to become a night person, but my essence fought it. I have the genes of Hoosier farmers after all.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:20am Doug Schulkind:

I am so NOT a morning person. When I first got the 9-noon time slot in 1995 I was completely freaked out. Turns out, I love being on at this time. Wouldn't trade it for anything (unless it came with a salary maybe).
  11:22am ndbob:

@kat I though of you when I drove through Indiana - a bit north of where you are however
  11:22am Matt from Springfield:

@Van: Julie's show is what done did it! Though normally I only try for that some Thursdays after going to bed early, and I still do on Monday evenings (even w/o an early DNoTS, I've found it helps the stress of a first day back in the grind.)
  11:22am Ugly C.:

Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices
That, if I then had waked after long sleep,
Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming,
The clouds methought would open and show riches
Ready to drop upon me that, when I waked,
I cried to dream again.
  11:23am kat330:

@Bob: Oh, that's the boring part of Indiana -- all flat. Down here we have the Knobs. :)

  11:28am listener james from westwood:

ever since i started working from a home office, the spring ahead has screwed me up for weeks after it hits. probably b/c the desk faces out a window so i know where the sun is more than i used to in a cube.
  11:30am Jeff G:

@Van: archives, my man; archives! (Plus, hell, if we weren't doing D:O Radio at the same time, we'd probably have Irene on, too.)
  11:31am kat330:

Speaking of DST: Does anyone know WHICH time is the actual time before the nonsense? I think my body cells remember because I have a harder time adjusting only the one time a year, not both.
  11:32am Van in DC:

I have to go too. Thank you Doug, great show, greatly enjoyed, and will be greatly appreciated on the archives later.

@Jeff G - I will have to check D.O. out on archive as well :)

Ya'll all have a wonderful weekend!
  11:32am kat330:

Yes, Jeff G. Irene's the issue for me as well. And archives, it's not easy finding the time for those either. But I'm making it a point of trying starting this Monday. :)
  11:33am kat330:

Bye, Van!
  11:33am ndbob:

@kat It's all a matter of standardization - DST was originally adopted as a means of saving energy - before the 1880s there was no standard time -

@Bob: Not explaining what I mean very well -- yes, I know why DST was instituted, but there was some agreement in a given region on what time it was. Whatever that IS/was is what my body wants to believe -- not the creation of an hour ahead and then behind again.
  11:38am Rasputin's Hash:

take it you were not selected for Jury service Doug?
  11:39am Matt from Springfield:

@Doug: Everytime I hear some soul like this in a new release, I have to ask: is this old music, or new music that sounds like old music?

(If the listener can't tell the difference, then the artist has already passed the test, IMO :)
  11:39am trish:

A standardized system was first used in 1847 in Great Britain. Again with the train schedules. Standardized got standardized in the 1870s and 80s. Wiki has a good entry : 'Standard_time"
  11:40am Matt from Springfield:

Shhh, RH! He's quietly running the show from the jury box, don't get him caught!
(I love your choice of moniker, btw!)
  11:41am kat330:

IOW, I have a much easier time adjusting to Spring Forward than I do to Fall Behind, the opposite of many people, and I wonder if the "real" time is the one we adopt in Spring.
  11:41am trish:

Trains before energy is how it unrolled I guess is what I'm trying to say.
  11:42am Matt from Springfield:

@kat: I think you're asking which is the change--the hour forward or hour back? The winter time is the "original" time. We are said to be "off" Daylight Savings then. The modification is the hour forward in the spring, when we go "on" DST. The hour forward is what was instituted, if that's what you mean.

Two d's in Edd are better than one.

@Raspu
I spent a day at jury duty but didn't get picked for a jury. Was interviewed for a medical malpractice suit, but I didn't make the cut.
  11:42am Rasputin's Hash:

Matt,
I think thats what the band Rasputin's Stash really wanted to call themselves - by the way these last two funky psyche tracks remind me of that band!
  11:42am still b/p:

11 Angry Men and a Mensch.
  11:43am kat330:

@Matt: Yeah, I was thinking it would be cool if Doug did a Ken number with wireless mics and all -- I think it might be a bit difficult to get past the courthouse screening though.
  11:43am ndbob:

@kat I'm not sure that there really is any correct time for your body other then a rough correlation between day and night cycles

  11:47am Matt from Springfield:

@RH: I should check out Rasputin's Stash then, I'm digging these funky tracks myself!
  11:47am kat330:

No caravan groove today so Van Groove instead.
  11:48am northguineahills:

I knew it must be Friday b/c I had "Caravan" playing in my dreams this morning.
  11:49am Matt from Springfield:

Undisputed Truth -- coulda SWORN this was going to be MILLIE JACKSON!
  11:49am Matt from Springfield:

Oh, disregard, my instinct was right--the title I was looking at was off :)
  11:49am northguineahills:

woah that was spooky kat, your comment hadn't come up when I typed mine.
  11:50am Matt from Springfield:

That said -- YEAH MILLIE!!
  11:50am Rasputin's Hash:

Doug,
which band was that did Neanderthal and Its Just Begun?
  11:50am kat330:

@ngh: Huh, I had Sabre Dance in my head this morning.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:50am Doug Schulkind:

I would pay cash to hear Millie Jackson sing this with Merle Haggard. A lotta cash.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:51am Doug Schulkind:

@Rasputin
You thinking of Jimmy Castor's "It's Just Begun" and "Troglodyte" ??
  11:51am kat330:

:)
  11:51am Matt from Springfield:

@kat: What's your local jinx again, the pinky thing? :)
  11:51am Rasputin's Hash:

remember seeing some of her x rated tv shows!
  11:52am northguineahills:

I would pay money to see Merle Haggard live before he dies.
  11:52am kat330:

[That smilie was for your question Matt -- got ahead of you.]
  11:53am Rasputin's Hash:

yes Doug, thats it, just could not think of the name! GOTTA HAVE A WOMAN!
  11:54am kat330:

Gotta tend to the boiling pot -- see y'all on the flip. If not, have a wonderful, *cooler* weekend everyone!
  11:54am Matt from Springfield:

What a horn section A Case of Tyme has!
  11:54am ndbob:

Bye for now kat!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:56am Doug Schulkind:

  11:57am ndbob:

Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:58am Doug Schulkind:

My great pleasure, ndbob!
  11:59am Matt from Springfield:

"Time to Go Home" -- hey hey, the weekend hasn't started *yet*!
