Tonight, after a few drinks and a little smoke, I returned home to a veritable feast of aural delicacies.

The starter was simple but stimulating on the palate, consisting of Jevetta Steeles "I am calling you" from the film "Bagdad Cafe" (not to be confused with the sacrilegeous comedy program of the same name)

The entree was a healthy portion of Machanic Menyeruke, and I am currently enjoying a substantial and spicy main course consisting John Lee Hookers voice and guitar, sitting mouth-wateringly on a bed of fat juicy rhythm section.

MMMMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

The sounds of my neighbor's television coming through the wall.

If I was smart, I'd be listening to the new Rick Kane tape I recieved recently, but I'm not smart. Maybe a little Grey Larsen and Andre Marchand would be good.

If I was smart I wouldn't have left my "Atelier des Pianistes" CD in London, and I'd have a vague idea what it sounds like.

If my neighbours TV came through the wall I'd have to poke my head through the hole and ask them to fix it.

First time visitor to Mudcat Radio. Wonderful.

The reception is perfect in Manchester UK but it is 2.00AM. so I must regrettably shortly go to bed!!

Keep singing and playing.

Hello Bert & Marymac too. Nice show.

PS I've got a new website for you to check out. The recording quality isn't great, but you should expect some good music to start appearing there soon.

It's been hard to get Karen Matheson's The Dreaming Sea out of my cd player at home, but tonight I wanted something a little harder so I put in Led Zep I. Tomorrow I will probably be back with Karen. What a voice!

Here at work- nothing. In the car a tape I made from my Xmas skiffle record of 50s groups (Les Hobeaux, Original Barnstormers,Johnny Duncan,Chas McDevitt etc. with some Frank Crumit, Gus Cannon and Fred McDowell added). It frightens off would-be windscreen washers at traffic lights!

I am listening to a customer on the phone who complains that our software is not working but his problem is that he is too stupid to use it correctly - he repeatedly deletes config files of the software and then wonders why it does not work anymore...

Right now, I'm listening to Kokomo Arnold. 'Bull Headed Woman Blues.' I think I'll play some Weezer in here, though, since the Kokomo Arnold cd's playing in the other room, and I can barely hear it.

Strange you should ask-------

Right now I'm listening to CDs made by Fritz Schuler from tapes I made Nov. 11th, 1962 in Chicago at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bill Pierson (5637 South Michigan Avenue). The performers (all blues songsters) were Bill Pierson (guitar and vocal), "Lazy Bill" (or "Buffalo Bill") Lucas (piano and vocal) and Walter Vinson who was one of the original Mississippi Shieks and quite popular in the 1930s (guitar and vocal).

I'm about to dub these for Joe Hickerson who wants 'em for the Library Of Congress Archive Of American Folk Culture.

Now, I am listening to the voices in my head... and the hamsters just getting up, and the clique (rhymes with sleek) of my keyboard, and the silence in my apartment between all those other sounds...

Had an amazing experience tonight. My friends in I were all sitting around in the living room of the Newman Center, all singing an acapella version of "Fat Bottomed Girls" by Queen. Daniel was beating on a large popcorn can for a drum. I'm no being facetious here, but when we finished, I understood what folk music was. It was truly a folk moment.

At work at the moment, but it will be Sheena Wellington when I get home. She was the guest at the Dunfermline Folk Club last night and I had to buy a CD to get the lyrics for some of the songs she sang. Lucky break time, all three songs I wanted were on one CD. Guess I'll be singing "The Dandy and the Beano and the Sunday Post" at the session next week.
