Good morning Bob! Big supporter of this station and long-time listener of your show. As I may have mentioned, your record collection is epic.
  9:39am Jack:

I won a live Small Faces album from FMU many years ago (it might have been from Bob) Early Faces with Steve Marriott '68? It's a great album; sounds exactly like a live Led Zeppelin album.

I bought a little air plant yesterday, thought it would be fun to try something new. I'll have to write a reminder note to soak it every week.

Can anyone tell me what the deal is with LastFM.com ?
Do I need to download a special player app?
Will it tell the Russians the last time I had a healthy bowl movement?
Is this a free music thing?
or what?

Avatar 9:58am annie:

all the plants i have are destined to become short and squat, all bonsai. i just bought some sapling plants: Japanese black pine, two different oaks, a cluster of 3 crape myrtle, a trio of redbud; and i already have a nice jade, a chinese privet in a small glass dish, a sad upright fushia(sp), .... and i gave away all the plants that MUST have sun. the window these are in faces northwest.. a grow-light is in order

hhmm. i'll have to see what's out there, i bet a nice selection. those of you who know me on FB will see the pics..
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:08am melinda:

That sounds like a cool project Annie, looking forward to the pics. My common areas don't get the sun I would need for some of the plants I want, so I'm growing more pothos (or as I learned from one site "Devil's Ivy").

  10:23am exile-on-hicks-st:

@Lix Life Last.fm has changed a bit - they used to stream music, but now stream via Spotify. It seems that it’s a layer for people who are into ‘data’ about their mainstream music-listening habits. I don’t get the sense that the typical ‘FMU’er is the target demographic.
  10:26am exile-on-hicks-st:

E.g- they have a “music discovery” tool that lets you dial two circles of a venn diagram the dials cycle thru common genres and periods of time. If you put something like ‘1940’s’ and ‘electronic’ together there are zero results and you’re told you are ahead of your time.

Great tunes!

It doesn't seem like it's something I'd want to sign up for.
You just saved me a lot of frustration.

Sad to hear about Buell. There was a fantastic recording with Taylor and Archie Shepp from the early sixties. Can't remember the name.

rarely consider & feel thankful for my hearing ~ but Cecil Taylor helps me remember!
