	12:41pm Handsome Harry: Great background music, there.
	12:45pm Irene: Hi Everybody! Thanks for the kind words as I get settled in. Harry, that background music is by Ralph Towner & Paolo Fresu. It will get a more play in the foreground soon.
	12:47pm TJ: Been a while since I heard anything by dirty three.
	12:49pm Academic Gav: Yay! and Huzzah! for Dirty 3!

	1:01pm Pete L: this here's kinda music's yer best music ya know
	1:05pm Irene: I gotta agree, Pete! Lovin' it too.
	1:15pm listener mark: When you're alone and life is making you lonely You can always go - downtown
	1:17pm Irene: I haven't gotten up the nerve to look at it yet.
	1:22pm listener mark: So cool to sing along on a Petula Clark hit. Great choice.
	1:24pm Sean Gostage: Hey Irene, Great show, all is well in the universe, our clocks went forward over the weekend so back to the 5 hour difference
	1:26pm Mike East: This Huun-Huur-Tu reminds me of the music from the most recent Battlestar Gallactica (which is a good thing in my eyes, er, ears)
	1:27pm Brian in UK: Not seen these boys yet but Hanggai are pretty impressive, especially the singer in traditional dress..
	1:31pm Cecile: As a former ice skater, I'm always really disappointed that skaters don't skate to more interesting music. I'm sure it's partly because most of them are performers, not artists, but I think the artistic skaters would do well to listen to Irene's show. - she has the most interesting instrumentals Even this Huun Huur Tu song would be an amazing slow exhibition number for the right skater.
	1:37pm still b/p: This is like a vocal version of Discreet Music.
	1:43pm yair Yona: Such a beautiful song by Mountain Ghosts
	1:43pm yair Yona: Goats
	1:44pm The Jamaican Chef: They're ghosts after I get through with them, mon.
	1:46pm yair Yona: Orphans Lament is also the name of a beautiful Robbie Basho song
	1:46pm Cecile: I think it might the name of a Cows song, too.
	1:48pm BSI: Orphan's Tragedy was the cows LP, if memory serves...
	1:49pm Cecile: Oh, that's right. Thanks, BSI.
	1:52pm BSI: It wasn't up to the apocalyptic awesomeness of, say, Daddy Has A Tail, but I'm a guiltless Cows digger.... it's all good.....
	1:53pm Cecile: You want me to be honest? I never could get past the first album. It was so awesomely perfect, I just never felt the need to go any further. I mean, a punk version of Koyaanisqatsi!
	1:53pm Richard from Venezuela: Good afternoon to all.
	1:56pm aaron in chicago: just keep that banjo coming irene
	1:56pm Cecile: But then I'm convinced that I'm the only point of intersection for the follwoing: punk rock Phillip Glass ice skating Huun Huur Tu techno remix The Bats Drag queen lip synch Yoko Ono
	2:01pm Brian in UK: Is Roscoe Holcomb related to Malcolm Holcombe? Put your pants on one leg at a time.
	2:01pm BSI: Cecile: There's a really bad BSI plundered remix of Mr.Lonely by Bobby Vinton: that's gotta count for something....
	2:01pm Cecile: Nice!
	2:03pm Cecile: I think my brain resembles the mystery box the contestants on the cooking comppetition show. Canned haggis! Sun Ra! Ernie Kovacs! Cheez Whiz! Rudy Galindo!
	2:08pm Sean Gostage: Just loved the Steve Martin track, that's definitely on my "to buy" list.
	2:10pm Cecile: Sean, he is a frighteningly talented man.
	2:10pm glenn: what's the deal with comedians and banjos, anyway? steve martin, billy connelly. are there more?
	2:11pm Cecile: you can't be unhappy when you're playing a banjo... Didn't the Smothers' pull out a banjo once in a while?
	2:14pm Cecile: oh, death and grief and sorrow and murder strums banjo vigorously
	2:17pm glenn: tell that to dock boggs, the meanest, unhappiest musician ever.
	2:18pm JCJ: @Cecile, yep, Tommy Smothers sometimes played banjo. Also guitar. He said he originally wanted to be a musician but didn't think he was good enough so went into comedy.
	2:19pm glenn: i mean, dock boggs was the ty cobb of banjo.
	2:20pm Many Big-Selling Music Acts: @Tommy Smothers: Never stopped us, dude.
	2:20pm BSI: Actually I always thought the banjo had great "dark dirge" potential. But then, that's me.... (would love to turn a calliope into the devil's blackest sonic oatmeal, come to think of it...)
	2:20pm Marmalade Kitty: apparently, whispering can cause otherwise peaceful people to become agressive
	2:22pm Sesame Seed: Marmalade Kitty hates me.
	2:22pm aaron in chicago: put yer banjo in sawmill tuning, boom it's melancholy time
	2:28pm Marmalade Kitty: I suppose whispering is not meant to be heard
	2:28pm Parq: If I could just jump in, here, I always thought that the banjo playing at the start of the theme music for the old radio version of Hitchhiker had a sombre, even sinister tone to it. Some of you must remember that one, yeh?
	2:29pm Marmalade Kitty: I suppose whispering is not meant to be heard
	2:30pm Cecile: Yes, Parq. That was actually one of the two Eagles songs I like. Perfect theme music.
	2:31pm Cecile: it couldn't be more perfect if they had comissioned it.
	2:32pm BSI: Parq: agreed. That was a Paddy Kingsland piece, wunnit? Gotta get me one of these banjo critters.
	2:33pm Marmalade Kitty: I didnt mean to post twice.. playing musical instruments = happy
	2:33pm Cecile: nope, BSI - it was the Eagles!
	2:34pm BSI: jeepers!
	2:34pm Cecile: Journey of the Sorcerer from the One of These Nights album.
	2:37pm Dead Corporate Eyes: Cecile, what's the other one you like? I bet it's not "Heartache Tonight"!
	2:37pm Cecile: One of those weird album deep cut moments of the 70s, much like the country tinged song on Zapp 1
	2:38pm Cecile: Take It Easy. It's a funny song, and when you're listening to bad classic rock stations, it still leaps out at you in a good way.
	2:40pm Dead Corporate Eyes: actually there's some good stuff on Desperado you might like if you like the banjo-y country stuff. I am an unrepentant Eagles fan thanks to my folks constantly playing them in my youth. Throw spitballs now.
	2:40pm Don Henley: Though we will never be here again...
	2:41pm BSI: No spitballs from here. That's my explanation for the whole Bobby Vinton thing...
	2:41pm Cecile: I won't. You grow up with what you grow up with, hence my soft spot for Charlie Pride, Herb Alpert and the Carpenters.
	2:42pm Dead Corporate Eyes: oh hell yeah! you guys are great.
	2:42pm Cecile: And Johnny Mathis is a badass.
	2:43pm aaron in chicago: i'm a little relieved my dad never played his music much. last time i checked he had two enya CDs in his car
	2:44pm Cecile: Well, I'm off to the doc. have a great afternoon!
	2:44pm Looms: Wonderful show and pretty good french pronunciation.
	2:48pm Pronunciation: @Looms: May we? Mais oui?
	2:53pm Mike East: @DCE - I'm the same way with the Eagles. I grew up with it, but all my friends who didn't give me shit for knowing all the lyrics. I think Take It Easy was a Jackson Brown collaboration, no?
	2:54pm Handsome Harry: Highly enjoyable show today. This was a great way to spend the afternoon.
	2:55pm 12539: Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey wrote Take It Easy, and Jackson recorded it as well.
	2:55pm still b/p: Speaking of unlikely intersections and them Eagles....Ol' 55, eh?
	2:55pm ?: @Pronunciation: absolutely! :)
	2:58pm Irene: Thanks everybody! See you all on the radio next week.
	2:59pm freaking in tongues: Mais oui hadda widow wham.
