Listener comments!
I think I'm going to go make a couple of sweet Rob Roys.
Because we do try to preserve the weekend AS the weekend -- and it begins with Sophisticated Boom Boom!
I am feeling great over here, so much better than I was last week. If you need a pick-me-up , send me a message and I'll send you my number and try to talk you through.
Here is that Weyes Blood t-shirt: weyesblood.bandcamp.com...
Here is Sheila B’s Instagram: www.instagram.com...
And you can always pledge to WFMU 24/7/365: pledge.wfmu.org
@Passaic good point.
By the way , Sheila, you should also check out Melville's Deux hommes dans Manhattan, with a fantastic jazz score by Christian Chevalier. I waste way too much time when I'm in Paris looking for that soundtrack.
Yeah, about to put our Bandcamp list together. Slum of Legs!
:)
Monica Vitti is awesome in L'avventura

FINALLY finished the wonderful book I had been reading on a Danish expedition to Yemen in the 1760s. So good.
But no, no impulse toward pandemic fiction.

Sheila, about once every 10 mins., Kate says, "Tell Sheila how much I love this! Tell Sheila how much I love *her*!"
This one notice might have to suffice for the entire program -- but there's love!
@People Like Us, Kelly Jones: cheers!
Am I Blue - Ray Charles, For No One - The Beatles...
We have moved outside. They way I look at it, the neighbors WILL like WFMU.
That cover art is BLUMIN all over.
Playin' a song on the radio.”
Great selection by Brenda Lee!
I had never heard her.
THE CHILDREN
the use of a year as a song title recalls Miss Jackson.
* I tried stuffing them once, and decided it was just a very labor-intensive way to make a greasy, inedible artichoke.
* I did dice & sautee a couple to make Lidia's artichoke carbonara - that worked well, but I threw out like 75% by weight
* So for now I'm back to just boiling them - easy, you get to eat most of it.
PLAY IT AGAIN

So glad to spend the beginning of the weekend with you fine people!
