Listener comments!
	7:01pm jayrope: Goodness, Nino Rota... Thank you so much!
	♥ 7:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously.
	♥ 7:04pm Michael 98145: Venice appears to be severely flooded this week
	♥ 7:04pm melinda: Hi Thatch! Nice to hear you.
	♥ 7:06pm ultradamno: Beasts of Satan into Rota isn't a transition you get on just any station.
	♥ 7:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I always say!: ...'Young Frankenstein' may not be a profound movie ...but it is a perfect movie!!...
	♥ 7:09pm Richard S: Hello! (Pics of Venice under the current "acqua alta": www.theatlantic.com...
	♥ 7:10pm Michael 98145: @Richard S, oh, cripes
	♥ 7:14pm Richard S: Sea level rise + Venice slowly settling into the mud = many, many Acqua Altas.
	♥ 7:20pm Rich in Washington: I loved the score to Upstream Color. I need to watch that film again, too.
	7:21pm Trick-or-Trick: Love for "Young Frankenstein",(horse whinny).
	♥ 7:22pm Rich in Washington: I had the weird experience of walking in the middle of the movie, my wife going 'you HAVE to watch this. It's crazy', and then we watched it together from the beginning because she wanted to figure out the stuff she missed. It made it a bit weirder, I think.
	♥ 7:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Young Frank hit me @ just the right adolescent age too... & Frankenstein is 200 this year...
	♥ 7:25pm Cooh John: Mel Brooks is a genius, IMHO.
	7:26pm Trick-or-Trick: Ditto
	7:26pm Listener Robert: "What Shall We Do With a Drunken Sailor" was used in the movie of "Seconds", which I saw at the Whitestone Drive-In with my parents. Mother said she used to sing that while bathing me in the kitchen sink.
	♥ 7:28pm Rich in Washington: Carnsarnit!
	7:28pm glenn: frau blucher! *cues rich*
	♥ 7:28pm Listener Robert: "Seconds" was alluded to thematically and via a little shot-for-shot in my friend's TV serial "Lost".
	♥ 7:29pm Richard S: OK, my fellow commenters, just gonna toss this out to see what happens. What's your favorite horror movie soundtrack/theme?
	7:29pm glenn: oops. *cues trick-or-treat*
	7:30pm glenn: farging icehole.
	♥ 7:31pm Rich in Washington: @Richard S: it's probably Ennio Morricone's Magic and Ecstasy from Exorcist 2: The Heretic. My 2nd is Experiment in Terror by Mancini.
	♥ 7:31pm Listener Robert: My favorite has to be that of "Halloween", which I first heard as the mood music in the ABC Sports documentary of the bicycle Race Across America. Next to that, I guess that to "Cannibal Holocaust", which I still haven't seen but got played here last night and which is used as the opening theme music for the excellent weekly streamed program "Fright Day" that I listen to on the Dark Matter Digital Network.
	♥ 7:32pm ultradamno: My favorite: Find a stranger in the alps
	♥ 7:35pm Richard S: I find myself humming the theme from "Psycho" when I get stressed out at work....(grin)
	♥ 7:36pm Rich in Washington: Goblin's Suspiria score is really good too. But the Shining soundtrack is also excellent, but criminally out of print.
	♥ 7:36pm melinda: Tubular Bells is good.
	♥ 7:36pm Rich in Washington: The whole Psycho score is really good.
	7:37pm leylou: this Conversation theme music is so hitting the right spot for me right now .. (beside reminding me how much I loved it when watching the movie)
	♥ 7:38pm Listener Robert: Have you heard Neil Cicierega's hilarious mashup of the "Pscyho" theme with "Love Shack", "Love Psych"? Play it for somebody by surprise and if they're familiar with "Psycho" they should LOL when, a few measures in, it becomes apparent that's part of it.
	♥ 7:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Psycho strings influenced 'Eleanor Rigby'...
	♥ 7:41pm melinda: @leylou I don't remember it from the movie but I love it too
	♥ 7:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Walla!...everybody say 'rhubarb' ...
	♥ 7:41pm Rich in Washington: There's a whole album worth of Walla Walla Walla'ng on Free Music Archive. It's handy for lots of things.
	7:42pm Trick-or-Trick: Richard S., score from Ugetsu or Kureneko. And yeah,Psycho! And, yeah,The Exorcist! (and,and,and...) Oh, Rosemary's Baby!
	7:42pm Trick-or-Trick: ...The Last Wave!
	♥ 7:43pm Rich in Washington: Yes. Rosemary's Baby! The recentish reissue is great.
	7:48pm Trick-or-Trick: My husband and I are always aware of walla wherever we are. There are places we go to because we like the ambient sounds and places we avoid.
	♥ 7:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...they were always going 'rhubarb rhubarb' on the Goon Show...
	♥ 7:50pm melinda: Rosemary's Baby, of course
	♥ 7:50pm ultradamno: Wasn't sure if that was a train on the recording or the one that rolls by a few blocks from my house
	♥ 7:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm all into being a Monster Kid now ...but for Soundtracks - I can only think of SciFi...
	7:51pm JakeGhould: Boo Thatcher! Happy to hear you on the air.
	7:52pm Trick-or-Trick: RevRab, I'm nuts for Goon Show. Thatchmo, always great to hear you. Thanks!
	♥ 7:55pm Richard S: RevRab, how about the theme song for "The Blob"? (Beware of the Blob, it creeps, it seeps, it slides, it glides...)
	♥ 7:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Shall I recite the whole 'Celebration of the Lizard' for you? ...No??...
	♥ 7:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This episode of Monster Kid Radio discusses a new book about Monster Songs ! : www.monsterkidradio.net...
	♥ 7:57pm Tome: .....covers the kid's ears ....
	7:57pm glenn: jeeeez, the end is even more pretentious like this. i wouldn't have thought it possible.
	7:57pm Trick-or-Trick: heh, NO. :)
	♥ 7:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: www.amazon.com...
	♥ 7:59pm Davis: great show
	♥ 7:59pm melinda: Great show, thanks!
	♥ 8:00pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Thatchmo! Your shows are fantastic!
	♥ 8:00pm Richard S: Goodnight, everyone! And don't forget to send WFMU and spare change you might have!
	8:05pm leylou: once again, I start listening to a show on WFMU for the first time and it synchs perfectly in a weird metaphysical way with where my mind is at these days .. thank you !
	8:12pm Thatchmo: My minions: now go out and make mischief! Natas! Natas! Natas!
