good morning!

Good morning Krista and bean rock

Good morning, Brian!

Oh I see you played Muldaur! Cool

Hope you are safe and warm

I had a lot of fun checking out Mulduar's discography this week. Very talented.

I am safe and warm, thank you Brian, I hope the same for you. I have a thick woolen sweater and flannel pants.

Warm too. My wife & I get to work from home . We like hearing about the animals. RIP Sophie

We are also all working from home, very fortunately for us.

O my we love this! Dancing in kitchen making coffee

Love the way the synth imitates woody

The glitching and sampling was so innovative!

yo Krista & Brian! that Buffy track was cooooooool!

hey jimbeaux! Glad you enjoyed it! I'm planning on checking out her synth album this week, I only had a brief grazing of it.

"standing in the rain feeling pretty vain" - this lyric cracks me up

Love this version. Heard the Bobby Fuller the other day. Love that Mexican riff a la La Bamba in there

Mr Monroe!

M'nroe

good ol' Bill Monroe, the gateway into bluegrass for many people, I think

DISTORT YOUR BODY

Yes yes love him. Almost clocked out and broke out my mandolin

I have heard this on WPRB way back. I am contorting

Yes, we have a copy of this compilation "Disco Not Disco" at the station. DJs over the years have written their opinions on it.

James Chance (White) performed in Princeton not long ago...WPRB sponsored!

My favorite is the random saxophone squeakin. Wow! Wish I could have seen it, Jimbeaux!

With bonus Bill Monroe, who burst out of the speakers to give a riff

This is a deeply angry song from Rhye, pretty fitting in 2021. "I'm so in love with my pain"

tymperturbably...gotta work that into conversation today.

is there a joke about "perturbed" in the title? I'm not sure!

disgruntled tympani? tympanist?

everyone else in the practice room when the percussionists are allowed near the tympani?

best percussion ever...brrrooooooiiinnng! why don't more shift pitch?

Song with a bunch of spring boings in it coming up, Jimbeaux, after the Simon and Garfunkel. Put it in there just for you. I was saving it for kismet and you so gracefully offered it up!

thank you! can't wait...

Mark Lanegan from Screaming Trees does a gravelly-voiced version of "Where did you sleep..." on his first solo. Check it out!

Oh yes, I love Mark Lanegan!

"morning glory wine" is one of my favorites of his

sounds toxic!

"morning glory wine, good people don't drink it" , he even says in the song

need to start keeping a mental collection of boing songs after that

I agree, sara!

that track was tooooooo short! sounds like a future show theme!

It came off Lo Sport, which is an Italian compilation of "sports" library music

another boing for you all

Good morning DJ Krista ❄ Welcome to your new time slot

good morning, Christine

justice for pseudo moles

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marsupial_mole

article in the Atlantic this week "cancel Earthworms". who knew worms could be bad.

invasive species in North America!

will you be digging up any of The Residents mole musique?

I'm going to go outside and yell at my compost bin "ANY WoRMS IN HERE ARE CANCELLED!!!!!"

Good Morning and Happy February to all! Doesn't this Angelo Baroncini sound like the instrumental version of Television's 'Little Johnny Jewel"? Maybe Tom Verlaine heard it and either intentionally or unintentionally channeled it into his own song?

Does this seem like The Mole Show to you, Jimbeaux??

Pete Seeger's Froggie Went a Courtin would fit in today

I agree, Teresa!

Ween has a boing song titled Boing but i don't know if there's a boing in it proper

that song starts out with mutilated...redacted...on a shingle

This one and the other variation he does slowed down with the ding dang dong go the wedding bells are both great

We've been reading a lot of Loebel in my house lately and I just love the stories

C for Cheshire C for Cheese....

gotta see Frog & Toad quarantine parodies in McSweeneys!

@jimbeaux -- aren't those great?! Our oldest son Max is still obsessed with 'Tear-water Tea'! When he has (by his own admission) a 'crying jag', Max will often say "Max is making 2 pots of tear-water tea!" It's sad and cute at the same time.

crying about a spoon behind the stove!

I laughed myself silly the first time I read that story

"Mashed potatoes left on the plate because no one wanted to it!" <>

I haven't seen the parodies, gonna look em up

This song has no right to rock this hard and being about meatloaf! I'm tempted to play dashboard light

https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/frog-and-toad-are-self-quarantined-friends

BRING IT ON!

Tanya!

Looking forward to your Valentine's Day show! 💗

Thanks, Christine, I've been planning it for a very long time

Good morning. Someone moved my chair.

good morning Corage Mike!

Miles Davis Black Satin. Great use of sleigh bells

I'll add it to the list, Brian! Maybe we will still have snow next week and I'll slip it in.

I had a vinyl copy of one of the first pressing of Pet Sounds, once upon a time. Brian Wilson wanted them recalled at one point.

This was the song that converted me to Klaus Nomi Appreciation

im turning my mic on so you can hear the snow hitting the window

Great show Krista! Your voice and the music were comforting

Thanks, Brian! See you all next week for VALENTINES DAY!!
