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.

  Tue. 8/2/11 10:39am Jennique:

orange + pink = Baskin Robbins!
@Trouble - the Pacific was really, really cold but foggy and breathy and beautiful. I also went to Yosemite, where record snowfalls have made the waterfalls gushing and lovely and dangerous. Sad to back in the concrete jungle.
  Tue. 8/2/11 10:43am trouble:

wow jennique that sounds amazing!!
  Tue. 8/2/11 10:43am Peter G.:

  Tue. 8/2/11 10:45am Jennique:

Well I am biased being from California, but it was really pretty. I do have very fond memories of going to Horseneck beach just over the border of lil Rhody into Mass. Great beach and easy to swim in the warm Atlantic.
  Tue. 8/2/11 10:46am saintpeg:

Hey Trouble, Just wanted to say thanks for introducing me to Lykke Li through your show. I saw her last night in Central Park and it was an amazing show. Glad you played her all those months ago.

Hego.
  Tue. 8/2/11 10:49am Stu:

Hyvä Paivä Trouble lovely vibe this afternoon!
  Tue. 8/2/11 10:49am christopher:

my first time listening to the live stream on wfmu ... what have i been doing with my life?
  Tue. 8/2/11 10:55am Brian in UK:

A pink so vibrant you could eat it and it would smell of dreams.
  Tue. 8/2/11 10:56am trouble:

hey christopher, we've been waiting for you
  Tue. 8/2/11 10:57am trouble:

saintpeg, i didn't know lykke li was in town last night, still in a vacation haze. i would love to have seen it
  Tue. 8/2/11 10:58am βrian:

Hanne reminds me of Madeleine Peyroux, in a way.
  Tue. 8/2/11 10:59am trouble:

hey stu! i found "the summer book" at a thrift shop in Massachusetts. will send it on to a dear friend who hasn't read it yet. funny it was printed in the 80's i think.
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:03am Jennique:

Spoons is one of those songs that you played before that really reverberated with me. I went and got the whole Mali Music album because of it.
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:06am maja:

hey Trouble, thank you. I'll keep him for a while in my favourites-box nice little paintings!
hi christopher!

You should really Wire
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:11am saintpeg:

Lykke ended with a muscled-up version of Unrequited Love -- it was quite spectacular!
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:13am Unclear on the concept:

Why was that guy talking funny?
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:13am Tiago:

you're correct: it's Raul Solnado
it's funny but in a old fashioned way
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:15am Nathan:

Trouble have you seen the Sonia Delaunay show at Cooper hewitt?
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:24am Jennique:

Wow. I'd love to have that commentator follow me around and be my personal art spokesman.
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:25am Brian in UK:

We listen to so much music that we do not understand the lyrics of even pop music in Ingerlish.

This link may be of some help

  Tue. 8/2/11 11:26am trouble:

yes i saw it on the last day. waited in line with such a cross section of wacky upper east siders. it was gorgeous, small but so fab. must get up early tomorrow and head to met to see the alexander mcqueen before it closes. will probably have to wait in line, ugh
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:30am frenchee:

the mcqueen show is open till midnight this weekend! I don't think I can handle the lines.
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:31am Jennique:

Trouble, I went to see the Ponderosa Stomp:She's Got the Power at Lincoln Center last weekend and stayed to see the outdoor performance art piece Eiko & Koma:Water. I am not a performance art person but was really taken with what they did. Really worth seeing.
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:32am Peter G.:

"Bummer" the stream here at 7000 feet in the Michoacan mountains keeps cutting out, very annoying, will listen to archive later.

Boris K's "Just So"! We have this on tape. Jack Nicholson did a great deadpan reading of "Rhino" and "Camel" for a 90s book-and-tape series.
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:54am David:

after years of listening, I finally have to write in and say, what a great show! the abstract art lesson was lovely, and I confess I grew up listening to Karloff/Kipling on vinyl. But I bury the lead: the music! always a revelation. Thank you trouble.
  Tue. 8/2/11 11:54am don trust:

Loved the show. But I'm curious, is there any way you could choose a couple of colors for your playlist that would be slightly more difficult to read?
