	9:17am sugarwolf: Happy Unbirthday, Trouble
	9:21am Trouble: my birthday is in july, but thank you sugarwolf
	9:21am sugarwolf: I went to the Met yesterday and I am not really sure how I feel about all the picture taking. The Irving Penn exhibition was hard to get through because everyone was taking pictures of the pictures!
	9:22am Trouble: I told FB that my birthday was in january, since you know I am in the witness protection program. I was always amazed when people wish me well in january. But actually isn't that when we all need well wishes? in the deepest dark of a new year
	9:23am Trouble: it is weird isn't it? when people take pictures of pictures. i am guilty of that some times.
	9:25am bobdoesthings: who wants the real experience?! just document the fact that you were there... then post to social media! get likes! feel artificially fulfilled!
	9:27am Trouble: it seems the real experience is up for grabs, in that it can be shaped by alternative facts
	9:27am Vivian: Ha,ha. Trouble, I did the same thing for my birthday. It's really in July but I told FB it's in January.
	9:28am rebuketodali: This Don Bryant is giving me the nasty funk I needed this morning.
	9:28am sugarwolf: Oh I do it too sometimes.
	9:28am bobdoesthings: whoa... this Don Bryant was released THIS year? ... and this isn't a Daptone production
	9:29am JakeGould: What movie had “Nickel and a Nail” in it? A Jarmusch film?
	9:30am bobdoesthings: whoa so this Don Bryant guy made an album in 1969 and nothing since then.. Fat Possum recs bringing him back.
	9:31am Pale Son: I totally do that picture-of-picture-taking. It's because I want to be able to look at them again later and remember the chills they gave me IRL. But I can see how it could get pretty annoying if everyone's doing it.
	9:31am Bronwyn Bishop: good morning trouble and everyone. guess whose birthday is in 4 days? hint: it me
	9:32am Trouble: yes! don bryant is drinking form the fountain of youth. solid stuff!
	9:32am JakeGould: I think I’m mixing it up with “Get Your Money Where You Spend Your Time.”
	9:34am SHAGALOV: SO GLAD TO HEAR YOU ON STREAM!☜
	9:35am SHAGALOV: btw Happy Birthday everyone :)
	9:36am melinda: yay Clay
	9:36am Trouble: good morning shagalov! moscow checking in today! wowza
	9:40am Jeff in Pioneer Valley: Streaming is down. ?
	9:41am bobdoesthings: im streaming right along... ??
	9:41am melinda: Love the unending highway.
	9:42am JakeGould: It’s raining fine in NYC.
	9:44am Bronwyn Bishop: @jake: yes it is and i am goddamn soaked again
	9:44am Trouble: good morning and happy happy in 4 days brownwyn. any one else with a may birthday?
	9:45am Bronwyn Bishop: thanks trouble :)
	9:46am AndyM: +1 for all the arp tunes.
	9:47am Sam: Beautiful. J'adore.
	9:48am northguineahills: Cool, a new album album from Vicki!
	9:50am Sam: "Downtown" is so ripe for good remixes
	9:52am Adrian in London: Hi everyone, what a song to come in from a gloriously sunny London afternoon to.
	9:57am Pale Son: Loving the Supremes as setup for Weller.
	10:00am Trouble: @ pale son I can hear some serious love of american soul music in paul weller's writing
	10:07am Pale Son: For sure. Definitely some Smokey Robinson coming through at times.
	10:08am Polyus: I think in some cases labels are just using the original vinyl copies as the source for the reissue. But I am no expert either.
	10:12am fred: Hello Trouble and all. Getting back to the birthday topic, I think Rob Weisberg's is in late May, and maybe Mayuko's too
	10:16am robin: is this a herding song?
	10:17am Nick S.: I still can't believe I saw Vashti years ago. She is always in my mind.
	10:19am Trouble: good point fred. I do believe rob is at the end of the month! @robin: sort of... @nick s.: wow, that must have been something wild
	10:19am Greg from ZONE 5: Rainy day music
	10:19am bobdoesthings: @nicki - Some things just stick in your mind..
	10:21am Hugo (NL): YES! Shangri-Las again!!!
	10:21am Adrian in London: What @Hugo (NL) said
	10:22am themutante: Love this!
	10:23am Nick S.: It was a magic show. With Vetiver backing her. They didn't play in NYC? Oh, and Vetiver opened!
	10:24am The Oscar: I was at a restaurant a couple of years ago when a haunting song started playing. Everyone at my table (mostly past and present record store clerks) strained to recognize the song, but couldn't. Eventually, I realized that we were actually hearing TWO songs: "Past Present and Future" was playing in the dining room, and "Black Hole" by Beck was leaking in from the kitchen. They worked surprisingly well together!
	10:25am bobdoesthings: wasn't it Vetiver.. or maybe Devendra who sort of brought Vashti back into the scene? I know she sang on an early Devendra album..
	10:25am Mike Wolf: My dog Dusty heard her name and came closer to the music and I believe she likes this song.
	10:25am bobdoesthings: and early on Devendra Banhart was playing with Vetiver.. I think animal collective did something with Vashti around that time too , if memory serves.
	10:26am Mike Wolf: @bobdoesthings Correct on all fronts — I think Devendra was more in the lead but AC and Vetiver both got involved with Vashti's return shortly after.
	10:30am Nick S.: Thankfully, so. That show might be one of the best I've ever seen. Might have convinced the person I took to marry me, too. ;)
	10:30am bobdoesthings: :-D
	10:31am MD: Good Morning Gang..Good Morning Trouble wit a Capital T!
	10:33am themutante: Damn, this is a wonderful song.
	10:37am upsetter5001: It must have been like ten years ago when I saw Vashti perform. I even thanked her in person for making the trip out to Seattle.
	10:41am Chris from DC: Digging hearing Look Blue Go Purple regularly on FMU these days.
	10:42am Adrian in London: Outside the office I'm working in, there's a bloke literally smashing things up with a big hammer, so I'm cranking this music up in my headphones right now.
	10:48am Hugo (NL): Adrian in London: hehe, Good luck . By the way, I'm also working today, but in Holland it's an official holiday today: Ascension Day. Do you guys (in UK or USA) have this as well?
	10:48am Chris from DC: Also, really like this week's artwork.
	10:50am Hugo (NL): www.officeholidays.com... Those Swedes chuckles
	10:55am herb.nyc: that kevin morby was indeed a good song. and i missed the mont(gomer)y hall show? dumb me.
	10:57am Adrian in London: Bedouine was on Sheila's show just gone, the one on Friday.
	10:58am steveo: Yep. May 19, 2017: With the sun in my eyes with Bedouine live! \| See the playlist wfmu.org...
	10:59am Adrian in London: @Hugo (NL) No, we don't have a public holiday for Ascension Day. That's a Jesus thing, right?
	11:02am bobdoesthings: @trouble - according to quick search -- the Persuaders theme was done by John Barry.
	11:02am dale: i remember you mentioning the john barry theme and i emailed you a file of it i downloaded off napster. that was probably 12 or 13 years ago trouble! it seemed like a miracle to be able to do that then.
	11:02am βrian: In the U.S. we have a number of Stealth Holidays — those that one notices only when no mail awaits at the end of the workday.
	11:03am bobdoesthings: oh you said that, duhh.
	11:03am Listener Robert: Do you also have the theme music to "Department S"? It was the show that provided the basis for my friend's "Lost".
	11:06am Trouble: no i don't @ listener robert... yes dale, I wonder is that the copy i just played?
	11:07am Listener Robert: It's easy enough to get the "Dept. S" theme on YouTube. Not to be confused with the metal band named for the show a decade later.
	11:08am Itzall Ablurr: Man, that Francis Lai slays me.
	11:08am Chris from DC: Marine Girls, nice.
	11:09am dale: no, i sent you the instrumental from the tv show with the harpsichord. you mentioned recalling it, i sent it and you played it before the next set was over - it was truly a modern world, even without youtube.
	11:09am steveo: i keep taking my headphones off to see where that woodblock noise is coming from!
	11:12am Hugo (NL): @Adrian in London apparently it is ;-) I think not a lot of people here are celebrating it that way. Most people consider it just a free free day of. There is a bit of tradition that you go cycling very early in the morning (dauwtrappen, morning dew cycle) and there's some music festivals going on. Not very interesting ones, though.
	11:13am Priscilla: Paul McCartney
	11:14am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and seekers of Trouble.
	11:16am melinda: I hear McCartney too.
	11:17am bobdoesthings: "long haired lady" - linda and paul mccartney
	11:18am Dean: Never before heard the echoes of "Hey Jude" in this song, and I've had the album from the time it first appeared.
	11:19am Wild Neil: PEACE All. @ Hugo-according to the Catholic Church in the USA its a day of obligation, so we are going to mass at 7pm....Corpus Christi is a HUGE DEAL in Poland, with parades and everything.
	11:19am officina: Hey trouble, what's today's art? Also, I my bday is 5 May !
	11:19am bobdoesthings: I belong to a world that's destroying itself -- best album title .. maybe ever.?
	11:22am Itzall Ablurr: "Ram" is my favorite "Beatles record that is not really by The Beatles". Paul and Linda nailed it with that one, in my opinion.
	11:23am βrian: Now that I think of it, I wonder if Holy Days of Obligation are the source of my atheism. When my parents sprung them on us, it felt like a death notice. (Cuz you know, kids wanna go out and play.)
	11:23am đ¢ ÞäŦ: I'm voting for Plastic Ono Band
	11:26am Clay P: HaPpY BiRtHdAy, TrOuBLe!!!!!!!
	11:27am đ¢ ÞäŦ: I've always hated Easter and we don't go near that one in my house now. It always seemed weird and slightly scary to me.
	11:28am Trouble: today's artwork is by lourdes sanchez. thanks clay p, but it's paul weller's birthday, not mine
	11:29am mr_mikeK: My productivity goes down when I tune in. Wfmu bad for profit-good for soul
	11:32am βrian: When I was traveling in France, I discovered that Easter Monday is a thing. Growing up Catholic, I'd never heard of it.
	11:34am đ¢ ÞäŦ: Mind you, I think all these religious stories are intensely interesting..just not for me. I mean, think about it: the symbol for christianity is a means of torture! What if he was killed by guillotine?
	11:35am Sem Chumbo: Late to the Trouble birthday day. Hiya, Trouble with a capital T, and Modern types.
	11:37am mr_mikeK: Ha. Eddy Izzard cracks about explaining Christianity
	11:39am βrian: Yes, guillotine or an IV cocktail. (Actually the gurney already has the cruciform shape factor.)
	11:41am zopa: don't goose the geese!
	11:42am themutante: Powerful set as always, Trouble!
	11:43am The Oscar: I caught RTCOBWALRII at the Boston Underground Film Festival last year. Really charming little film.
	11:44am adampsyche: first time listener first time poster nice set!
	11:44am Dean: Which language doesn't have a word for "purple"?
	11:45am bobdoesthings: Ottendorfer library link: www.nypl.org...
	11:45am The Oscar: @Dean Tuareg, if I recall correctly.
	11:46am Dean: Thanks, @The Oscar. Makes sense.
	11:47am adampsyche: and then someone sings about excessive drinking it's like you're reading me today
	11:49am Trouble: thanks @adampsyche! welcome aboard
	11:50am zopa: this has got a real style council vibe to it
	11:52am Trouble: spaek of the devil @zopa. i see this song as the proto style council
	11:52am Chris from DC: Jeez, thanks, have not heard this in ages.
	11:53am DJ_Guy: This shit is heavy trouble!
	11:53am Brian C.: I just heard the Chi-Lites doing "Stoned…" yesterday and was wondering how long it had been since I heard the Jam's version. Trying not to worry about you reading my mind!
	11:54am herb.nyc: stupid me, i heard this song and thought "style council?".
	11:54am zopa: Thanks Trouble. Just what I needed today. You are great!
	11:54am Chris from DC: Saw Style Council when they were brand new at the Beacon. Pretty enjoyable.
	11:55am βrian: Coming up, from the depths of the Drummer Stream: Underwater Theme Park with Meghan wfmu.org...
	11:56am bobdoesthings: thank you Trouble!
	11:56am Adrian in London: Thanks Trouble. Enjoyable show today, as ever
	11:57am Trouble: thanks everyone for sitting in today. call your congress peeps and say no to the republican budget
	11:58am Threemoons: Thanks for the swag update. If we won something as a pledge prize I take it this is when we'd get sent it along with other pledge goodies??
	11:59am Trouble: yes threemoons

This Is The Modern World with Trouble: Playlist from May 25, 2017

View Trouble's profile

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.

	10:37am upsetter5001: It must have been like ten years ago when I saw Vashti perform. I even thanked her in person for making the trip out to Seattle.
	10:41am Chris from DC: Digging hearing Look Blue Go Purple regularly on FMU these days.
	10:42am Adrian in London: Outside the office I'm working in, there's a bloke literally smashing things up with a big hammer, so I'm cranking this music up in my headphones right now.
	10:48am Hugo (NL): Adrian in London: hehe, Good luck . By the way, I'm also working today, but in Holland it's an official holiday today: Ascension Day. Do you guys (in UK or USA) have this as well?
	10:48am Chris from DC: Also, really like this week's artwork.
	10:50am Hugo (NL): www.officeholidays.com... Those Swedes chuckles
	10:55am herb.nyc: that kevin morby was indeed a good song. and i missed the mont(gomer)y hall show? dumb me.
	10:57am Adrian in London: Bedouine was on Sheila's show just gone, the one on Friday.
	10:58am steveo: Yep. May 19, 2017: With the sun in my eyes with Bedouine live! \| See the playlist wfmu.org...
	10:59am Adrian in London: @Hugo (NL) No, we don't have a public holiday for Ascension Day. That's a Jesus thing, right?
	11:02am bobdoesthings: @trouble - according to quick search -- the Persuaders theme was done by John Barry.
	11:02am dale: i remember you mentioning the john barry theme and i emailed you a file of it i downloaded off napster. that was probably 12 or 13 years ago trouble! it seemed like a miracle to be able to do that then.
	11:02am βrian: In the U.S. we have a number of Stealth Holidays — those that one notices only when no mail awaits at the end of the workday.
	11:03am bobdoesthings: oh you said that, duhh.
	11:03am Listener Robert: Do you also have the theme music to "Department S"? It was the show that provided the basis for my friend's "Lost".
	11:06am Trouble: no i don't @ listener robert... yes dale, I wonder is that the copy i just played?
	11:07am Listener Robert: It's easy enough to get the "Dept. S" theme on YouTube. Not to be confused with the metal band named for the show a decade later.
	11:08am Itzall Ablurr: Man, that Francis Lai slays me.
	11:08am Chris from DC: Marine Girls, nice.
	11:09am dale: no, i sent you the instrumental from the tv show with the harpsichord. you mentioned recalling it, i sent it and you played it before the next set was over - it was truly a modern world, even without youtube.
	11:09am steveo: i keep taking my headphones off to see where that woodblock noise is coming from!
	11:12am Hugo (NL): @Adrian in London apparently it is ;-) I think not a lot of people here are celebrating it that way. Most people consider it just a free free day of. There is a bit of tradition that you go cycling very early in the morning (dauwtrappen, morning dew cycle) and there's some music festivals going on. Not very interesting ones, though.
	11:13am Priscilla: Paul McCartney
	11:14am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and seekers of Trouble.
	11:16am melinda: I hear McCartney too.
	11:17am bobdoesthings: "long haired lady" - linda and paul mccartney
	11:18am Dean: Never before heard the echoes of "Hey Jude" in this song, and I've had the album from the time it first appeared.
	11:19am Wild Neil: PEACE All. @ Hugo-according to the Catholic Church in the USA its a day of obligation, so we are going to mass at 7pm....Corpus Christi is a HUGE DEAL in Poland, with parades and everything.
	11:19am officina: Hey trouble, what's today's art? Also, I my bday is 5 May !
	11:19am bobdoesthings: I belong to a world that's destroying itself -- best album title .. maybe ever.?
	11:22am Itzall Ablurr: "Ram" is my favorite "Beatles record that is not really by The Beatles". Paul and Linda nailed it with that one, in my opinion.
	11:23am βrian: Now that I think of it, I wonder if Holy Days of Obligation are the source of my atheism. When my parents sprung them on us, it felt like a death notice. (Cuz you know, kids wanna go out and play.)
	11:23am đ¢ ÞäŦ: I'm voting for Plastic Ono Band
	11:26am Clay P: HaPpY BiRtHdAy, TrOuBLe!!!!!!!
	11:27am đ¢ ÞäŦ: I've always hated Easter and we don't go near that one in my house now. It always seemed weird and slightly scary to me.
	11:28am Trouble: today's artwork is by lourdes sanchez. thanks clay p, but it's paul weller's birthday, not mine
	11:29am mr_mikeK: My productivity goes down when I tune in. Wfmu bad for profit-good for soul
	11:32am βrian: When I was traveling in France, I discovered that Easter Monday is a thing. Growing up Catholic, I'd never heard of it.
	11:34am đ¢ ÞäŦ: Mind you, I think all these religious stories are intensely interesting..just not for me. I mean, think about it: the symbol for christianity is a means of torture! What if he was killed by guillotine?
	11:35am Sem Chumbo: Late to the Trouble birthday day. Hiya, Trouble with a capital T, and Modern types.
	11:37am mr_mikeK: Ha. Eddy Izzard cracks about explaining Christianity
	11:39am βrian: Yes, guillotine or an IV cocktail. (Actually the gurney already has the cruciform shape factor.)
	11:41am zopa: don't goose the geese!
	11:42am themutante: Powerful set as always, Trouble!
	11:43am The Oscar: I caught RTCOBWALRII at the Boston Underground Film Festival last year. Really charming little film.
	11:44am adampsyche: first time listener first time poster nice set!
	11:44am Dean: Which language doesn't have a word for "purple"?
	11:45am bobdoesthings: Ottendorfer library link: www.nypl.org...
	11:45am The Oscar: @Dean Tuareg, if I recall correctly.
	11:46am Dean: Thanks, @The Oscar. Makes sense.
	11:47am adampsyche: and then someone sings about excessive drinking it's like you're reading me today
	11:49am Trouble: thanks @adampsyche! welcome aboard
	11:50am zopa: this has got a real style council vibe to it
	11:52am Trouble: spaek of the devil @zopa. i see this song as the proto style council
	11:52am Chris from DC: Jeez, thanks, have not heard this in ages.
	11:53am DJ_Guy: This shit is heavy trouble!
	11:53am Brian C.: I just heard the Chi-Lites doing "Stoned…" yesterday and was wondering how long it had been since I heard the Jam's version. Trying not to worry about you reading my mind!
	11:54am herb.nyc: stupid me, i heard this song and thought "style council?".
	11:54am zopa: Thanks Trouble. Just what I needed today. You are great!
	11:54am Chris from DC: Saw Style Council when they were brand new at the Beacon. Pretty enjoyable.
	11:55am βrian: Coming up, from the depths of the Drummer Stream: Underwater Theme Park with Meghan wfmu.org...
	11:56am bobdoesthings: thank you Trouble!
	11:56am Adrian in London: Thanks Trouble. Enjoyable show today, as ever
	11:57am Trouble: thanks everyone for sitting in today. call your congress peeps and say no to the republican budget
	11:58am Threemoons: Thanks for the swag update. If we won something as a pledge prize I take it this is when we'd get sent it along with other pledge goodies??
	11:59am Trouble: yes threemoons
