Now I have it:
Basil Kirchin is the composer of "I Start Counting"-
Dusty's version was the flip of "Yesterday When I Was Young" in 1972.
Would be intersting who is singing on Basil's version.
Obviously not the guy.

In Portugal it is pronounced the same as in French, Georges. In European Portuguese, we say [ˈʒɔɾʒ(ɨ)] or “ZHOR-zh”. Rather similar to the English pronunciation of George. Brazilian pronunciation depends on the specific accent, but the last “e” is usually pronounced “i” or “e”: something like [ʒɔɾʒi/] or “ZHOR-zhee”.

Does anyone know, if I favorite a song on the WFMU app does it become a clicky star on the website? I'm guessing the answer is no, because even if I use the same user handle on the app, it doesn't show as my user profile on the website. (Not only that, you can't comment in a mobile browser on the WFMU site, because the comment input form runs off the bottom of the page!)

This was probably the first time since 1982 I heard Ben Watt. That year I bought the 12" Summer into winter with him and Robert Wyatt. Just looked on Discogs and didn't know he still was making music. There's a big gap between 1983 and 2002
