Hey, Doug. That Khmer Rocks track was an ear-opener. I'd always associated that distorted electric organ sound with Africa (e.g. Fela, that guy who did the "Broken Flowers" score). I never realized it made its way to southeast Asia.

Fri. 12/14/07 9:34am From: Thatcher

Bang the gong, Doug. I can almost taste the air of the fragrant isle. You're the benchmark, as always.

Fri. 12/14/07 9:35am From: Cecile

Wow. Hi-Ho, hi-ho in Burmese. That's a new experience. Thanks for bringing it to me.

Fri. 12/14/07 9:38am From: Paul Sherratt

Yet you rarely hear strange music in familiar places

Fri. 12/14/07 9:42am From: Cecile

So very true.

I heard Television's Marquee Moon in a very straighlaced bar recently, and just about dropped my fork. Not the weirdest song ever, but the context was.

Fri. 12/14/07 9:53am From: Ronald

Hello Doug! Loving the show us usual.

Fri. 12/14/07 9:57am From: pat

yes, I was watching tv the other day and I heard a Buzzcocks song. I nearly puked.

Fri. 12/14/07 10:00am From: Paul Sherratt ( UK )

Cecile,
I dropped everything when working in someones house one day, I heard the glorious voice of the Rev. Claude Jeter leading The Swan Silvertones. The home owner pleaded ignorance and it turned out the sounds were coming from a the painter and decorator's radio, outside. But the mystery still remained - why is this stunning stuff being played on the clinically dull, daytime, BBC Radio 1 ?

Turned out that the regular DJ, Simon Bates ( aka Mr Bates ) was on holiday. In his place it was Whitney Houston guest presenting for the day

Fri. 12/14/07 10:03am From: Cecile

That's wonderful. What a happy coincidence, Paul!

Fri. 12/14/07 10:04am From: jonathan

last bottle of wine. what a beautiful, sad tune.

Fri. 12/14/07 10:06am From: Paul Sherratt

Oh Amy !

( Advance notice )

Fri. 12/14/07 10:35am From: Cecile

LOL! Uhuru is the real "revolutionary rhythm"

Fri. 12/14/07 10:36am From: holland oats

this revolutionary rhythm tune is great

Fri. 12/14/07 10:41am From: Wes

My co-worker is in love with some online russian chick, so he's got classic rock blasting over at his desk "give a little bit..little bit of your love to me" yeck...makes for an interesting mix of tunage though between the two of us.

Fri. 12/14/07 10:42am From: holland oats

mashup. i think that's what the kids call it.

Fri. 12/14/07 10:43am From: Parq

Ugh, Wes, there's nothing worse than being near someone who's all into sappy mainstream love songs. Okay, maybe being at Gitmo is worse, but not by much,

Fri. 12/14/07 10:45am From: holland oats

imagine the music they play at gitmo (remember waco!)

Fri. 12/14/07 10:51am From: esch oder anarchie!

Ann-uh-KOR-Tez

Fri. 12/14/07 10:52am From: Wes

they probably play a lot of Toby Keith, if I had to guess, oats. Pure hell. (and yes, the Waco psyops were strange to say the least)

Fri. 12/14/07 10:53am From: Doug

Thanks for the phonetical assistance. Please, everyone feel free to correct/advise my pronunciations. No really.

Fri. 12/14/07 10:54am From: Ted from Baltimore

A bit belated, but what Jonathan said about Last Bottle of wine -- loveliest song I've heard in a long time. And now Amy Allison is tearing me up too. You're just putting me me through the wringer this morning, Doug. Thanks as always.

Fri. 12/14/07 10:57am From: jeffrey Weyand

It is pronounced ana-cortez with a sllightly diminished empahsis on the "tez" more of an "s" sound than hard "z". Lovely town, bTW.

Fri. 12/14/07 11:11am From: Parq

While we're all in pendant mode, "Ana" with one N is "Ah-nuh", not "Ann-uh".

Fri. 12/14/07 11:15am From: holland oats

haha! that is so true about getting really excited about a 'discovery' only to find out you were last in line...

Fri. 12/14/07 11:15am From: jonathan

i agree, doug. so great.

Fri. 12/14/07 11:17am From: Marcy

You mean pedant mode?

Fri. 12/14/07 11:18am From: Doug

Parq, I think you mean "pedant" mode. Pendant mode is when you swing from side to side.

Fri. 12/14/07 11:20am From: Parq

D'oh!

Fri. 12/14/07 11:21am From: Doug

Swinging from side to side? Absolutely!

Fri. 12/14/07 11:22am From: Paul Sherratt

Billy Stewart !

The cool shower at the end of a hot, sticky day ...

Fri. 12/14/07 11:33am From: Paul Sherratt

Holy Moses !

( Are you allowed to say that kind of thing ? )

Fri. 12/14/07 11:39am From: Doug

I stand behind, far behind, every word I say.

Fri. 12/14/07 11:56am From: Other Doug

Humphrey Eshitool is a lovely name.

Fri. 12/14/07 12:17pm From: Doug
