Brian D 12:03:18 PM
Hello. I remember seeing people do that knives in mouth - balance head to head thing on tv as a kid. Crazy. Merv Griffin show my mom would watch in the 1970s
deirdre dionysiac (1) (host) 12:05:07 PM
Hello hello, all come all come to our olympic mess. Hi Mr.M and Brian. Where have all the knife to mouth boys gone from the tv?

Arhoolie Records! Great documentary "This Ain't No Mouse Music" on that label
Brian D 12:13:12 PM
Hermeto! A treasure of Brazil! Crazy new realease out now and way out there as expected
deirdre dionysiac (1) (host) 12:13:21 PM
I don't know much else about that label, what was their sphere musically? blues? texan music?
Brian D 12:13:59 PM
I remember your Hermeto flute bath gif from last year ha!
deirdre dionysiac (1) (host) 12:14:34 PM
Lol, has it been a year already?? Radio shows flatten time, it all feels like last week to me
Brian D 12:14:50 PM
Arhoolie is all over the place blues, folk, Tex-Mex , experimental etc etc
Brian D 12:16:13 PM
Their founder Chris Strachwitz uses the term "mouse music" for standard boring fare etc (as in anything non -wprb pretty much ha)
deirdre dionysiac (1) (host) 12:18:07 PM
We only play rat music here
Brian D 12:18:19 PM
But he definitely featured the real gritty low down country blues artists like Mance Lipscomb etc
Brian D 12:19:28 PM
German born blues and folk etc enthusiast really sheds light on tons of obscure artists over the decades
Christine 🦉 12:21:36 PM
I am enjoying not only this Hassan Ideddir track, but the glorious album collage.
deirdre dionysiac (1) (host) 12:25:18 PM
Will have to look into that documentary. And glorious it certainly is

deirdre dionysiac (1) (host) 12:45:45 PM
Ah, that must've been a good one. This was 1am on a Saturday night in early September, just after KPC. He just kinda chuckled at me and shuffled out and I spent the next couple hours desperately trying not to press wrong buttons. Had no turntable experience to speak of

They were known for inflicting injury on themselves and audience members, but everyone was kinda down to risk their lives? Probably not something that would be allowed to happen today

The medieval music sounding portion was Amps for Christ though
Richard from Rocky Hill 1:31:14 PM
@ deirdre dionysiac (1) Thanks muchly for playing a track from the Holy Model Rounders album Last Round. It is indeed lesser known (compared to Stampfel & Weber's early happy-high fiddle/banjo and guitar old-timey revival duo albums). But it's an irrepressible ragtime/Dixieland/klezmer mashup by these marvelous maniacs. The Rounders forever!

deirdre dionysiac (1) (host) 1:38:57 PM
Hi Richard, I'm glad you enjoy that one as I do! Nearly every song on there is a fun singalong for me. I once had a burned CD of it in my car radio for a few months straight and would listen to it a lot

I met Steve Weber a couple times back in the 00s. Hung around bucks co / New Hope at John and Peter's etc. Odd bird
-ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 1:49:13 PM
beautiful
Richard from Rocky Hill 1:55:25 PM
@ Brian D Yes, HMR guitarist/singer Weber WAS an odd bird and Peter Stampfel (for those of you aren't Rounderheads, the singer/banjo picker/fiddler other half of the HMRs, who I've met) got very frustrated at times with him ... BUT ... Stampfel never lost his appreciation for -- indeed, his sheer wonder at -- their musical chemistry.
Brian D 2:00:40 PM
Ya it seemed Steve had his demons but the music they created was nice
Richard from Rocky Hill 2:00:57 PM
@ deirdre dionysiac (1) (host) Your magical "Dragon" set ... never a draggin' moment! :-))
Brian D 2:02:34 PM
No Captain Darrell Dragon though (of "... and Tenille fame). Next time maybe
Richard from Rocky Hill 2:06:49 PM
@ Brian D Stampfel told me that back in the early 1960s folk, bluegrass & old-timey music revival in NYC, someone told him about Weber and suggested they get together and play some music: "So, I went over to his apartment, and here's this guy who looks like Lil' Abner. But from the first song ... No, from the very first NOTE! ... we totally clicked!"
Brian D 2:06:59 PM
