Playlist for This Is The Modern World with Trouble - October 29, 2009

Tuesdays 9am - Noon on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Thu. 10/29/09 9:18am Adrian in London:

Damn. I knew the switch back to Greenwich Mean Time would throw me. Good day to hippies and hipsters, poets and postmen, wherever you may be.

Thu. 10/29/09 9:20am mvagusta:

Thu. 10/29/09 9:24am flandrew:

Thu. 10/29/09 9:33am dc pat:

Adrian: don't forget about mockers.

Thu. 10/29/09 9:35am Adrian in London:

Mockers? Is that rhyming slang?

Thu. 10/29/09 9:35am Stuart Troutman:

Oh, I get it: Philadelphia connection, pro-Phillies win....

Thu. 10/29/09 9:36am dc pat:

sort of, lot of us who listen to Trouble are mods + rockers = mockers. Ringo coined the phrase.

Thu. 10/29/09 9:38am trouble:

ooooh stuart you win the prize! very clever of you to figure it out....

Thu. 10/29/09 9:43am stuart:

do I win a philly cheez-steak?

Thu. 10/29/09 9:45am Cecile:

Missed Schooly!

Thu. 10/29/09 9:46am annie:

philly boy roy has a bet going with tom, i bet, you betcha!

Thu. 10/29/09 9:46am dc pat:

I use to live right near the zoo here and heard that lion sound all the time...

Thu. 10/29/09 9:47am Cecile:

Did you hear about the little kids in India who brough a leopard cub home?

KITTY!

That's a scary and sweet story. All at the same time.

Thu. 10/29/09 9:52am fidel:

oh trouble, i love this song. thank you.

Thu. 10/29/09 9:53am postmanpaul:

delivery officer pmp reporting in for listening duty!
striking on saturday with mixed feelings about industrial action at a time when many would do the job for a square meal. but it dont worry me, no it dont worry me...

Thu. 10/29/09 9:54am J-Mar:

Thanks, Trouble, for the "Nashville" track!

This is for anyone who wants to read about how the movie "Nashville" was received in Nashville when it came out:

http://www.nashvillescene.com/1995-11-09/news/look-back-in-anger/

Thu. 10/29/09 9:56am annie:

yes, a sticky wicket, for sure pmp.. one is never sure what is the right move. i stand behind labour, though.

Thu. 10/29/09 9:58am Michael Slaboch:

I'm doing my best Lynn to make it happen with Syl. Things are looking better everyday!

Thu. 10/29/09 9:59am Coolie:

Concrete 'reservation'...guess I'd never thought of it that way. Makes sense, though.

Thu. 10/29/09 9:59am trouble:

cecile, i'll look for it. is is on the first album? that's all we have here. btw i am so enjoying the second season. the michel gondry directed one was amazing

Thu. 10/29/09 10:01am annie:

i am soooo enjoying this music trouble.. thanks for your delectable taste and choices!!

Thu. 10/29/09 10:03am Cecile:

no, it's on the new one. It's from the ep with the Prime Minister, and the Matrix and whatnot.

I am so glad, trouble!

I love that episode so much, too. It might be my favorite episode of TV ever.

Thu. 10/29/09 10:04am Cecile:

That was a great article J-Mar. Makes me nostalgic for the movie, and also for the days when the alt-press had the pages to go into a thoughtful study.

Thu. 10/29/09 10:07am Adrian in London:

PMP: The Old Market in Hove,is it a stand-up or sit-down sort of place. Sweet Billy Pilgrim are there in a couple of weeks.

Thu. 10/29/09 10:07am jamesie:

Sounds like a well educated German. Their pronounciation usually sounds over-accurate

Thu. 10/29/09 10:08am Cecile:

they name check syl johnson in the mystery The Night Gardener

Thu. 10/29/09 10:09am J-Mar:

Amen, Cecile. On top of all that, it makes me nostalgic for the Nashville of my childhood -- which wasn't exactly like the movie, though it now takes on that soft, fuzzy glow of a '70s Altman film.

Thu. 10/29/09 10:11am suit:

all sorts of bang

Thu. 10/29/09 10:15am Coolie:

All sorts of caffeine, too.

Thu. 10/29/09 10:17am Ne-guh-tor:

I love the Drum Buddy.

Thu. 10/29/09 10:28am GP:

Hi Trouble...
Bet the Runaways were fun to hang out with!

Thu. 10/29/09 10:28am listener mark:

Thu. 10/29/09 10:28am dc pat:

Thu. 10/29/09 10:33am suit:

Thu. 10/29/09 10:33am Carmichael:

Good morning, Trouble and mockers.

Thu. 10/29/09 10:35am BSI:

Thu. 10/29/09 10:37am dc pat:

'lo, Carm and BSI.

Dutiful ducks? this is hilarious..

Thu. 10/29/09 10:38am Rob W:

¡Charles Amirkhanian!

Thu. 10/29/09 10:45am Cecile:

morrissey? is that you?

Thu. 10/29/09 10:47am Carmichael:

Can't tell. His bangs are in his face as he's gazing at his shoes.

Thu. 10/29/09 10:47am dc pat:

C: that's what I was thinking...

Thu. 10/29/09 10:47am jac:

Thu. 10/29/09 10:47am jamesie:

er no I am in hospital

Thu. 10/29/09 10:51am Parq:

Ah me. Still hopelessly in love with tha glittery backbeat-driven Brit postpunk sound.

Thu. 10/29/09 10:51am dc pat:

well who ever it was, he had the same effect on me: run screaming from the room.

Thu. 10/29/09 10:51am Carmichael:

Harvey Williams, whoever he may be:

Thu. 10/29/09 10:57am gumby:

AHHHHHHHHH Miles

Thu. 10/29/09 11:02am Gp:

Wow Trouble, these last four songs...superbly awesome.

My wife's grandma was Honor Blackman's twin...at least photogenically. FWIW

Thu. 10/29/09 11:04am dc pat:

GP: your grandma--in-law was Koochie Galore???

Thu. 10/29/09 11:09am annie:

tien sabor? i love portuguese. wwoz has a deejay that just oozes that language so wonderfully. suzanne on saturdays..

Thu. 10/29/09 11:11am Arthur Lee:

I took my little red pills when my eyes started to cry...

Thu. 10/29/09 11:15am GP:

Ha ha. DC PAT, you got it...it is pretty amazing. They had a picture taken together a long time when there was no color film and they look identical...crazy.

Thu. 10/29/09 11:21am annie:

i love this song!!!!!! L-O-V-E

Thu. 10/29/09 11:22am Nakedfoul:

I hope Karen O and the Kids have paid hefty royalties to The Danielson Family.

Thu. 10/29/09 11:24am jess:

al is corporate "indie" rock

Thu. 10/29/09 11:25am dc pat:

Thu. 10/29/09 11:25am Coolie:

???

Thu. 10/29/09 11:26am mom:

just saw the movie ..where the wild things......my son thinks it is very depressing...will take him 2 days to recover..he's 15...i liked it..but i cried too...
music was very good!

Thu. 10/29/09 11:26am Chris:

I'll second that Pat, this is nice.

Thu. 10/29/09 11:28am Carmichael:

I enjoy this kind of guitar.

Thu. 10/29/09 11:28am annie:

mom, i cried, too. but his meal was not steaming hot when he returned for supper..

Thu. 10/29/09 11:33am Listener James from Westwood:

Elizabeth Clare Prophet ululates from beyond the grave!

Thu. 10/29/09 11:33am jamesie:

Elizabeth Claire Prophits

Thu. 10/29/09 11:34am Carmichael:

She sounds like that singing hamster.

Thu. 10/29/09 11:34am texas scott:

oooh , scary!

Thu. 10/29/09 11:34am Chris:

She should have to listen to this on endless loop for eternity.

Thu. 10/29/09 11:36am Listener James from Westwood:

The neighbor with whom I share an apartment wall makes ECP-like noises now and again. If he's awake, I may get a return call from the other side (of the drywall).

Thu. 10/29/09 11:39am 55rpm:

John Morris was Mel Brook's ('Eleph-Man' producer) film composer. Wrote 'Young Frankenstein' which ties in the 'brain in a jar' theme.

Thu. 10/29/09 11:40am annie:

trouble, if it were my 8-year old, i'd take him. long talks afterwards and open discussion should follow.. but he is savvy enough..

Thu. 10/29/09 11:42am clermont:

that's barbara harris singing "it don't worry me" on Nashville soundtrack. definitely worth seeing the whole movie.

Thu. 10/29/09 11:42am jamesie:

I used to read WS Burroughs to Shiona as a child, didnt do her any harm... she writes for the Guardian now

Thu. 10/29/09 11:43am Brian:

Late to the show, I was afraid I'd miss Trouble's gravitas and somber commentary. Greetings from Madison (on the 43rd parallel).

Thu. 10/29/09 11:43am Cecile:

Millie Jackson missed her calling as a marriage counselor

Thu. 10/29/09 11:46am GP:

Cecile,
Love and acceptance in one hand.....a loaded .45 in the other.

Thu. 10/29/09 11:47am the man:

nobody's *what* drawers?

Thu. 10/29/09 11:48am Cecile:

funky!

Thu. 10/29/09 11:48am Ike:

Funky.

Thu. 10/29/09 11:49am Cecile:

@GP, the yin and the yang of a happy relationship. ;)

Thu. 10/29/09 11:50am Ike:

Was Millie Jackson slowed down a smidgen or does she actually sound a bit manly? Because at first I was wondering....

Thu. 10/29/09 11:52am Cthulhu:

Sup ya'll!

Thu. 10/29/09 11:55am GP:

Millie is waiting for you

http://tiny.cc/WhoaMillie

Thu. 10/29/09 11:55am trouble:

good call ike... i left it slowed down a bit from exorcising the faulous conti family. but millie rocked it

Thu. 10/29/09 11:55am Cecile:

how's it hanging in the mountains of madness?

Thu. 10/29/09 11:59am Cthulhu:

Aw, It's cool Cecile... We just got a Starbucks a couple peaks over... I'm taking the fam to Telos next month for a little "holiday"...

Thu. 10/29/09 11:59am GP:

Schooly D.....oh yea!

<throws made up gang sign to no one particular>

Thu. 10/29/09 12:01pm Ike:

Love that Schooly D track from Aqua Teen Hunger Force. I'm surprised it's not credited to "MC Peepants" (the giant spider or demon cow trying to lure people into a warehouse with his raps... or something like that) as it was in the episode(s) where it first appeared.
