The only comments section that's nearly as good as this one is on Gothamist; I even recommended WFMU over Spotify and mostly got good responses, though one person said FMU has "a vague patchouli mango crunch swirl thing going on. I prefer KEXP." Like... what???

I can accept mango crunch swirl, but I object to the patchouli. It's more like durian potato robot maniac crunch swirl on rye with tomatoes and onions, sitting next to marbles in a blender, while angry cyborg Thai eggplants tear down a nearby city.

I agree with that completely. I used to listen to KEXP all the time when I lived in Seattle and didn't know WFMU existed. But KEXP truly pales in comparison. They accept underwriting, and as a result, are very well funded. They feel very Corporate Indie.

I don't think the Tammy version of this song was on the original issue of The White Room, was it? Or not the U.S. edition anyway. This was a much improved later version of the song. The Tammy version first came out as a single, as I recall, and then was included later in a 2-CD reissue of The White Room plus the CD-single, and probably some other versions...

Raise your hand if you've read the "Illuminatus!" trilogy, wherein the Justified Ancients of Mu were popularised, though I think its authors, R.A. Wilson and R. Shea, might have invented the group earlier when they were writing pseudonymous letters to "Playboy " when they were editors there.
