  9:16am Van in DC:

Just curious Doug - have you ever had a live performance by someone on GTDS? I mean, isn't the Love Room thereabouts somewheres? I guess wrong studio though...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:18am Doug Schulkind:

Not since I moved to Pittsburgh, Van. I didn't have a ton of live music on the show (not easy to get musicians awake for a 9am show!) but I had some over the years when I was still in NY/NJ.
  9:20am Uncle Michael:

I think the definitive version of this is by Dick Smothers.

This Maria Monti track is very pretty.
  9:48am Hugo:

Was there a Swedish connection to Uppsala College? Uppsala University is a major university in Sweden, located in a small town not too far from Stockholm. It's the oldest Nordic university, founded in 1477. I've not been there, but I've been to "the other place", Lund in the South. These two are the Oxbridges of Sweden.

Brian,
As you rightly state, Penkhull is Indian ( but Trent Vale ain't ) Perhaps a prize of a dozen oatcakes should be give to the first cousin to guess what on earth we are on about ! Or perhaps a copy of soon-to-be published ' The Breakfast Bible '

Those oatcakes do not give a inch.

Guess we will be visiting them sometime in the foreseeable. Hope to see Fred Eaglesmith soon. He has written several of Mary Gauthier's hits!!

  10:06am glenn:

fred puts on a great show. i've seen him probably 10 times.
  10:07am Paul Sherratt:

Brian, as you must have been aware, Fred Eaglesmith's cd ' From The Paradise Motel' is also on the desk. Don't think he's made a Drummer Some appearance but I've a lot of time for his ' Things Is Changin ' album, if less so for the man himself .. Do you have that one ?
  10:09am Van in DC:

Irene it was that hipped me to Meg.

I discovered Meg Baird and her gorgeous ' Dear Companion ' in 2007 thanks to a then BBC DJ's reject pile

  10:22am andujar:

oh man, there are some good tunes on that JBs Lost Album! even the cheese is fun. This version of transmo.. is longer than the released one I think. And the version of Use Me was so rare that I'm glad it showed up on this. They should've put this out as a double vinyl.
  10:22am kat330:

Hi, Doug in the belly of the beast! [just popping in for a sec here -- will be back properly after 11:00]

@Paul: Fred Eaglesmith's "Pontiac" from "Lipstick, Lies & Gasoline" is a real favorite of mine. Didn't hurt I owned an old beater Pontiac at the time it came out.
  10:24am holland oats:

oh jeez not again - how many "lost" albums are there are this point?

Greetings to the mighty DJ Andujar! And greetings to the mighty kat330 (and her faithful sidekick Philo)!

Holland Oats is found, praise G-D!
  10:26am Hugo:

Who is talk-radio host Alex Jones? I was reading Slate earlier today about his appearance on the Piers Morgan show on CNN. The guy was hysterical!

http://slate.me/WXcDHz
  10:27am Üncle Michael:

He's filling the Glenn Beck void, these days.
  10:27am holland oats:

g-drumma!
  10:27am andujar:

Yusef Lateef!! My parents neighbor! He maintains a strong presence around Western Mass
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:28am Doug Schulkind:

Hugo, Jones is a nobody. He does a cable-access show based in Austin, Texas. CNN gave him a bigger platform that he's ever had.

Andujar, Yusef is my all-time musical hero, rabbi and guru.
  10:28am glenn:

alex jones is not even worth thinking about.
  10:28am Paul Sherratt:

kat,
Not sure I have that album - it could be in the loft ! But another cracking track is ' I like Trains ' off 'Drive-in Movies' I have never owned a train, btw.
  10:29am andujar:

Nothing like seeing Yusef in his apron taking out the garbage.
  10:29am Lewis:

Just popping in to say "Hi" - Doug: I hope your excursion to the mother ship / easy coast is more pleasant than the train ride that brought you there!
  10:29am holland oats:

@andujar don't get him started
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:30am Doug Schulkind:

Lewis! I loved the train ride, mostly. I figured the Megabus would've absolutely destroyed my back, so I splurged.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:31am Doug Schulkind:

Andujar, I hope I am still taking out the garbage when I am 92.
  10:33am Lewis:

@Doug = glad you had a nice ride; as an geology student of the appalachians in the old days, that transect from Pittsburgh to New Jersey is an absolute classic! and the train *can* be quite peaceful.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:35am Doug Schulkind:

Lewis, I made sure to stay awake for the Horseshoe Curve at Altoona, where the train does a complete 180.
  10:37am Hugo:

The reason Jones was on CNN seems to be that he wants to have Piers Morgan deported!
  10:37am Andrew:

Pfff! Only 180?

Horseshoe Curve, you best keep away...
  10:40am Üncle Michael:

@Andrew That's excellent, mostly because it's unnecessary.
  10:40am Andrew:

:-) That is the Bernina express over the Alps between Switzerland and northern Italy.

Üncle Michael, I think you need to äpologize to the Bernina Express.
  10:43am Paul Sherratt:

Hugo,
I think I can speak for many others in the UK when I say that we don't want him ( Piers ) back !
  10:45am Hugo:

@Paul: Background from the Murdoch tabloids?

Would mid-Atlantic be a solution?
  10:49am Van in DC:

I don't know what this is but me likes.
  10:53am holland oats:

that last french number, ooh la la!
  10:54am Üncle Michael:

This puts me in mind ot Bubbles by Free Design.
  10:54am Paul Sherratt:

@Lewis
No, but I have a nephew named Arlo. Does that count?
  11:40am kat330:

@Matt: It also really echoed the "trailer trash" darkness of "Killer Joe," which we'd just seen. And always enjoyed and shivered at the dark carny /circus setting, like Freaks and Ray Bradbury.
  11:40am still b/p:

Would've been great if Guthrie had met Burroughs, in on a possession charge or something, while being booked for the litterin'.

For reals re: newphew? For reals!
  11:44am joe:

Now looking up info on Hot 8 Brass Band wow.
  11:45am Üncle Michael:

I give up looking for that video...unless Doug can tell me which 2012 show featured the Bollywood chipmunks.
  11:45am kat330:

Is it short for a longer name, or just Arlo?
  11:45am Lewis:

@joe - yeah, my partner loves to play AR at noon on Turkey day, but I have always liked WSB on that occasion.
  11:46am Hugo:

Back to Piers Morgan. This piece in the Daily Mail seems very sensible to me.

I normally wouldn't say that about the Daily Mail. Not too sure about the sensibility of the guy in the second pic from above. Does that thing belong in the hands of civilians at all? Looks much more powerful than the rifle I was furnished with during military services.

The mistaken-identity murder of one of Hot 8's drummers was covered in the HBO show The Treme. The actual relatives of the murdered musician played themselves in the scene (including the man's sister who collapsed while delivering a eulogy).

Just Arlo, kat330.
  11:47am Van in DC:

I like these guys
  11:49am Brian in UK:

@ Paul I was not ignoring you earlier but had to take Mutley out to the woods for a constutional. Do not have any Eaglesmith.
  11:50am Van in DC:

Man...check out the "violent death of group members" of them in Wiki

  11:52am kat330:

No, you played Eastwood's "I Talk to the Trees" on Arbor Day, right?
  11:52am Üncle Michael:

I subscribe to the 45 rpm, 200gram Bluenote reissues and I missed a pair of releases due to an expired credit card number and just got caught back up and there was a Pete LaRoca title in there...Basra.
  11:53am joe:

Keep going :)
  11:54am Van in DC:

It had to be. :)
  11:54am joe:

@VAn yeah that some pretty heavy stuff right there.
  11:55am Van in DC:

ooooh! Free pizza calls, gotta go! Happy Friday all, thanks Doug!!
  11:55am Brian in UK:

Basra, where the oil used to just bubble up out of the ground. Trouble was they could find no use for it then. Ah Mesipotamia.
  11:56am Carmichael:

I like Eaglesmith's Time To Get a Gun.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:56am Doug Schulkind:

Happy anchovies, Van!
  11:56am Üncle Michael:

Loving this groove for the second time.
  11:56am Brian in UK:

Thanks van, time to make some pizza using that 00 flour.

The Formerly Extinct Rangda, nice finish to a show for us Formerly Extinct Humans! (What, we must have passed during the Mayapocalypse, only to inexplicably return...)

Thanks Doug! Have a great weekend, everyone!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:57am Doug Schulkind:

Very funny, kat330!
  11:57am kat330:

Bye, and great weekends everyone!
  11:58am Üncle Michael:

Bye everyone. Thanks Doug!
  11:59am listener james from westwood:

  11:59am Paul Sherratt:

Hugo, it does make a considerable amount of sense.
Brian, I knew it was that time of a winter's day. Will make sure that soon some Eaglesmith will have landed near you..
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:59am Doug Schulkind:

Seeya, UM! Have a brilliant weekend, everyone!
  11:59am joe:

  11:59am Brian in UK:

Where have heard this before. Safe journey home, Doug
  12:00pm Hugo:

Standard military equipment from back in the day in the force:
