Brother Bill - just tuning in... missed new Kraftwerk - bummer. How's studio B treating you?
Sat. 2/21/09 3:26am
From:
Bill Mac
Very cramped and too cozy here Joe, not to mention that the library is several floors away. Something that I'll get used to the moment we move back downstairs...
Sat. 2/21/09 3:31am
From:
Bill Mac
BTW the kraftwerk is a reissue from 73 or so.... how you doin?

From:
Joe
3 sheets to the wind, sir. Hence the elementary Krautrock mistake. Very much ready to come down and I think these are the tunes that'll do it. It's interesting you played from Stan's premium - I've always felt your shows are somewhat kindred... if not always the same vibe but definitely the same spirit.
Sat. 2/21/09 3:43am
From:
Bill Mac
Glad to hear you're flagged and ready to wind down. Appreciate the compliment. I feel that anyone that's doing four hour overnights are of everything but the kitchen sink mindset. I wouldn't have it any other way.

Hey bill,
super show... love that faust.. did you say that was "new"? Some kind of weird resonance with "carnage visors" by the cure.
Sat. 2/21/09 3:59am
From:
Bill Mac
Hey Bob,
It looks to be a new release of material from 2006.

sweet jazzy tune

I knew that!!!

Saxophobia is pretty cool too, but I liked the other better.
Perhaps because I got to listen to it completely...?

You can't talk over Miles.... you just can't...

Schizo = Heldon? I'm confused!
Sat. 2/21/09 4:26am
From:
Bill mac
You doin homework that I'm not aware of Abe? Looks like this is a single rerelease of something Richard was involved in back in 72.
Sat. 2/21/09 4:31am
From:
Abe
Hi there. Maybe, that same track's on my Heldon I/III I listened to the other day for the first time in a decade. 'Ouais Marchais..' I think. Just wondering!
Sat. 2/21/09 4:35am
From:
Bill Mac
very cool coincidence i think. I don't ordinarily play Heldon material on the show. This was new and I caught his name on the sleeve

Stannerlee
Hi Bill. Great show as usual. Love the Jonathan Kane stuff - hard drivin, delta boogie shmoogie. I know he's a drummer but centre stage every time.....? Will still buy the album though.
Sat. 2/21/09 5:40am
From:
Bill Mac
He's Playing out in Brooklyn March 1st at Issue Project Room in case you want to see him center stage.... that's great stuff...
