kentman 10:03:14 AM
Thank you, still checking out Marvelous Marvin's playlist, a good start with WuMan
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 10:06:03 AM
Thanks, kentman. And yes, Marvin's playlist is always worth studying.
kentman 10:08:38 AM
I'm pretty sure I have WuMan on a compilation I bought 10yrs ago
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 10:11:53 AM
Quite possible. She has plenty of recordings, and is highly regarded.
kentman 10:13:06 AM
Sigur Ros transition is apt, Almost ancestral music
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 10:14:59 AM
I thought the two pieces went well together. It made sense to me, at least.
kentman 10:17:18 AM
agreed
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 10:17:07 AM
As did this ECM release.
kentman 10:18:21 AM
O Boy, more new stuff, where's my pad and pencil
Bud Burroughs 10:18:48 AM
That's funny - I didn't even really notice the transition into this track!
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 10:18:17 AM
Very Scandinavian of me.
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 10:18:46 AM

Thank you əʌɐp, enjoying the vibes this morning for sure
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 10:21:15 AM
Jerry Gordon's show reminded me that I had some Terje Rypdal that I have neglected to air, doing session work with Bjornstad.
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 10:34:56 AM
And credit goes to Selecta Jerry for reminding me about Nicky Skopelitis.

Circling around the globe

🌏 🌍 🌎. That's what WPRB is all about.
kentman 10:45:46 AM
had to go to Times Square to get an Ozric disc
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 10:46:53 AM
Affordable ones can be found online.
kentman 10:47:17 AM
this was in 2001
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 10:56:06 AM
2001. Yeah, I forget how difficult it was to acquire music in the olden days. I traveled to India to buy records, so, yeah, things have changed.

I recall making pilgrimages to 3rd Street Jazz in Phila. to get the imports not found in the suburban Sam Goody's.
kentman 11:00:55 AM
did the same to find New Wave recording
Bud Burroughs 11:01:07 AM
Yeah, I used to carry tattered lists in my wallet of records I was searching for. 3rd street was a great place to find them.
kentman 11:02:06 AM
great station id!
the_dude 11:01:31 AM
Wprb > really good book
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:03:12 AM
Thanks, kentman. I got tired of the old ones, so I put that one together. The old IDs are getting stale, and the memes are too old.
kentman 11:06:50 AM
good work gotta go out in the cold for appointment.
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:08:14 AM
Thanks for chatting. Stay safe please. There's a virus going around. 🦠
the_dude 11:08:18 AM
Oh you made that? Nice! Yeah it's a good one! You definitely hear a lot of the same ones (great as they are) so it's good to hear some new ones, keep it up!
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:09:44 AM
I had to ask my millennial kids what the new memes were. Even they rolled their eyes at the "over 9000" one.
the_dude 11:10:26 AM
Ha! Yeah I mean as a millennial aged person I love that one still...
the_dude 11:11:37 AM
I think the most over played one is that one where the guy is telling a story about riding a bike on highway one and meets a, I was never sure cause I don't know where it's from, but either cult or group of hippies
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:11:45 AM
It's fun, yeah, but we need to keep things fresh.
the_dude 11:12:22 AM
I've had some ideas in the past, I think I have an email saved to myself somewhere if you're interested in some ideas..
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:13:14 AM
Yeah that bicycle one sounds like a guy meeting a cult. Probably California's Highway 1. But the connection to Route 1 was too hard to resist.
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:15:21 AM
I'll entertain Station ID ideas, sure. (I also made the one with 'get outta my room, I'm playing WPRB'.)
the_dude 11:15:27 AM
Ahhh that makes sense. Always figured California but didn't realize route one does make sense for Trenton and Philly too
the_dude 11:16:31 AM
Also, dug that song btw - but ok cool! I'll try to only bother you with good ones. And don't think I've heard that one before ..
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:17:16 AM
I have exclusive rights.
the_dude 11:18:51 AM
Lol
the_dude 11:19:08 AM
Oh also, Dave, did you ever check out that gorguts song?
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:20:19 AM
Oh, not yet. Sorry. I haven't forgotten.
Bud Burroughs 11:23:32 AM
I feel like this is what it would sound like if Gentle Giant were from Mali.
the_dude 11:23:50 AM
Oh no need to apologize, just curious - I only just discovered gentle giant, but I see it
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:24:45 AM
🤔 I'll have to give that Gentle Giant idea some thought.
Bud Burroughs 11:27:00 AM
Counterpoint between the guitar and bass, angular vocal lines... well maybe the horns don't quite fit my theory.
the_dude 11:38:20 AM
I'm not a big Jello fan..but I like Gelatine
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:38:56 AM
Ha! I knew it!
Mark 11:46:06 AM
Like the Jupiter pic above accompanying this playlist today Did the disappearing monoliths show up there yet ?
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:47:05 AM
I think that's where the Japanese probe is heading next, after dropping off the asteroid sample.
Mark 11:48:56 AM
Ha I do know Jupiter and Saturn 🪐 will visually be thisclose later this month / get ur telescopes 🔭 ready
the_dude 11:49:11 AM
Haven't ya heard, the word just got out, the space base is under Mars! https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1250333
Mark 11:51:17 AM
Haha I did read that yesterday/ i think the majority of PRB listeners are ready for the announcement if the rest of planet 🌎 isn’t
the_dude 11:55:29 AM
Ha! I'd agree to that. But that's actually part of my skepticism though, he said we weren't ready 5 years ago ... But humanity is ready now?
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:56:44 AM
Apparently half the nation is ready to believe just about anything now.
Mark 11:57:17 AM
Only on PRB :) / amazingly shazam did pick this up
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 11:58:04 AM
I'm surprised. I would have thought it was scrubbed.
