I remember when I was a kid my grandparents had a Charles Schulz Peanuts book called Happiness Is A Sad Song, and I was like "that doesn't make sense", but now it does.

Imagine supplying John Fahey's needs
  1:05am
saucerful:

You are impatient Jeff! I'm in the middle of writing a question...Is the version of "A Heart Needs a Home" that's on Hokey Pokey the first version of that song?

Hi Jeff--lurking but loving it as always. Hope you had a good Thanksgiving and are doing well tonight.

Just gearing up for a cold, cold, cold winter
  1:15am
zenkoan:

Thought I detected a bit of a blue note in your voice before...perhaps you are speaking metaphorically about the cold x 3 winter approaching
  1:16am
zenkoan:

Oh--I get it now
  1:20am
saucerful:

The winter chill is perfect for hybernating, drinking tea, reading, listening to music, cooking at home, etc. (whether you're coupled up or not).
  1:22am
DARCEY LEONARD:

It's warm in LA.

Jeff Conklin:

I'm talking about the real cold and the existential one.
Avatar 1:23am
Jeff Conklin:

If/when WFMU opens up shop in LA, I'll gladly move. This is all that keeps me in new york
  1:25am
Agent Peter:

or new jersey, presumably...
  1:30am
zenkoan:

Have you spent much time in LA, Jeff? I have ( as well as in NYC) and, though the LA weather in winter may beat NY's, a soulful, introspective fellow like yourself might find LA pretty lacking in that department (apologies to above poster in LA, but still)
Avatar 1:31am
AdamFromOldeKenzo:

I predict...warm East Coast winter.
Avatar 1:32am
Jeff Conklin:

I've spent maybe a month total in Los Angeles. It's appeal to me is the closeness of the ocean and the mountains. As a "city", well, it seems to have what one requires of such a construct.
  1:35am
zenkoan:

Would be a great spot without all the superficial/habitually insincere people and absurd traffic.
  1:36am
kyle landstra:

wow never heard this track by the dead before. love it.
Avatar 1:36am
Jeff Conklin:

I still have a little daydreaming left in me but the reality is ill most likely die cold and miserable in NYC
  1:36am
saucerful:

Zenkoan, don't believe the bad hype about LA.
  1:37am
kyle landstra:

ahh cover. makes sense.
Avatar 1:37am
Jeff Conklin:

@kyle: Not played after 1969, and not much when it was in rotation.
  1:38am
zenkoan:

I know it's not applicable to everyone there, saucerful, but in my experience there's more than a grain of truth underlying the stereotype, unfortunately
  1:38am
rw:

Hello! Not everybody in Los Angeles is superficial and insincere, but the traffic IS absurd and I think that does keep people from connecting because it's so difficult to get around.
  1:39am
DARCEY LEONARD:

Agreed. LA ain't so bad and when it is you sit in the sunshine and don't care. I lived here before and it's a great time here right now. Why do you think al those Cali jams are so laid back?
  1:39am
zenkoan:

Besides, I'm willing to bet that Mr. Conklin fully realizes that contentment, or its absence, is far more a function of state of mind than state of residence.
  1:40am
saucerful:

Amen
Avatar 1:41am
Jeff Conklin:

Yes. I've been discontent long enough where I am, might as well see what discontent is somewhere else.
  1:41am
zenkoan:

China Rider on the way? Or just China? Love it either way!!
  1:42am
rw:

Jeff, if you're ever in LA I'll buy you a taco.
  1:44am
zenkoan:

I hope a small bit of the discontent is ameliorated by the knowledge that your carefully curated shows generate contentment for many every single week.
  1:46am
saucerful:

Yeah, feeling contented right now. That was a smoking hot guitar lead on China Cat. I'm imagining I'm at the Fillmore West in '69.
  1:47am
saucerful:

Think how high everyone in California is going to be after Jan 1st. LOL

@zen: It is

Marijuana becomes legalized in California Jan. 1st for those not aware.
Avatar 1:51am
Jeff Conklin:

That's not a selling point for me
  1:51am
saucerful:

hahahah
  1:52am
rw:

Saucerful, my daughter's in Boulder where marijuana is legal. She sent a text yesterday that said, "Lots of parents who are in town for the holidays are getting their Colorado weed on. It's an interesting scene." Accompanied by a photo she stole of a stoned looking soccer-type mom holding a frappuccino.
  1:52am
saucerful:

That's hilarious!

saucerful:

Jeff, just goes to show being a head is also a state of mind...

I've got to put my head in a state of sleep for a few hours. Thanks Mr. Conklin! Good night kids!

It is interesting how sad songs are cool to listen to even if you aren't sad....
  2:07am
zenkoan:

And if you are sad (and isn't every adult, on some level, a mixture of sad and other states, having lived life for some time?), those songs are very cathartic and ultimately healing
Avatar 2:12am
Jeff Conklin:

Yeah i mean sad songs always sounded good to me. they just sound GREAT lately.
Avatar 2:12am
AdamFromOldeKenzo:

yep!
  2:16am
zenkoan:

I'm a very nocturnal person myself (obviously, since I listen to this show every week!), but I try to adjust my schedule a little when the days get shorter so I can get more sunlight, which supports my mood. Also use one of those 10,000 lux lamps in my house to compensate for less sun exposure.

Diggin' this spacey "Electric Blend," man.
