WFMU: Ridgewood Radio with David Weinstein: Playlist from August 29, 2018

Listener comments!
	5:51pm Doctor Nerve: Looking forward to the show
	6:02pm Webhamster Henry: Or: for those listening to the archive, backward to the show.
	🥁 2:59pm david w: Welcome to the Doctors Nerve! And Henry wherever you are in time and space!
	3:01pm steveo: howdy! more bossa!
	🥁 3:01pm david w: Yeah, weird how that happens! Hey steveo!
	3:02pm doctorjazz: Hi, sounds great!
	3:03pm fred: Good afternoon David, Ruth, and listeners @Ruth: that elevator in the Pompidou Center will be closed for a year at least
	3:05pm Webhamster Henry: I'm here, in the Ridgewood Dimension!
	3:06pm TDK60: Just got in from the heat.
	🥁 3:07pm listener james from westwood: How do, Ridgewoodians! Would've come in for last week's show at 3, so I deferred, and that 5-hour wonder was indeed best listened to in one glorious sitting.
	🥁 3:08pm david w: doctor of another flavor! Henry is in real life, TDK joins the sweltering masses, and James! You are too kind...
	3:10pm fred: This Tohban Djan set starts wonderfully. The vocals sometimes remind me of Okinawan music, which I love
	🥁 3:10pm david w: @fred... Ruth remembers that escalator as a headphone epiphany as she developed into the noise band hostess for downtown NYC. Long story, someday hope she writes the book.
	🥁 3:13pm david w: Yes, Fred. I learned that about you during Mayuko's show this week. I still have to catch up on that stuff.
	🥁 3:16pm listener james from westwood: I always hate to dive into FMU programs after they've started. I feel like I've skipped part of the narrative. Best taken in full.
	🥁 3:18pm david w: When I come late to a show I always find myself researching the links and references that piled up in the comments and missing out on the live action!
	3:23pm northguineahills: Tohban Djan, new to me, but I know all of the players!
	🥁 3:28pm david w: The band barely lasted a year, I believe because the lovely USA was unkind on the alien Shioi who had no patience for the bull.
	3:29pm fred: @David: To spare you another shock, I'm a huge fan of Mongolian long song (urtiin duu). Byambajargal Gombodorj is my favorite singer. When she performed in Paris a couple years ago, I delayed heart surgery to see her, walked into the hospital the next day
	🥁 3:32pm david w: More sweets for me, Fred! And once again I am reminded of the book you are going to write, perhaps as a companion to Ruth's!
	3:36pm fred: Heh, I'll get writing when she does, then
	3:43pm Webhamster Henry: I put in for New Music America, but I don't think they fell for my categorization of "autoharp" as "World Music".
	🥁 3:46pm david w: NMA fell short partly because the promise of inclusion was only partly delivered and bitterness ensued. The loudest voices...
	3:50pm Webhamster Henry: They failed because of the lack of autoharp acts #itsallaboutme .
	4:03pm northguineahills: I know Nick's work, but the rest of the ensemble are new to me! @Henry: I played a duet down here w/ my wife w/ me w/ samples and found percussion, and her w/ autoharp and a battery of petals. (oddly, the first time we played together).
	4:09pm fred: @ngh: petals or pedals? If the former, I'd really love to see that
	🥁 4:11pm david w: Everybody in this band has made a real contribution to the downtown scene but in diverse ways. Didkovsky ic a connector. And the autoharp is making a comeback! Ever hear of Dendera Bloodbath?
	4:12pm Webhamster Henry: Nope! But I play Autoharp with fellow autoharpist Brian Dewan.
	4:13pm Webhamster Henry: Didkovsky, though, doesn't use autoharps.
	4:15pm fred: @Henry: sorry for the awkward introduction to Juanjo, but awkward is the way I roll
	4:15pm northguineahills: @fred: pedals, but I have played petals and another time a house plant.
	🥁 4:15pm david w: I bet he owns one!
	🥁 4:16pm david w: Didkovsky that is, but he probably has house plants too.
	4:17pm northguineahills: (also have played w/ dried chilies my band mate got from Burkina Faso).
	4:25pm fred: @ngh: great stuff, but don't go try and play a gator, I don't want to see you headlining the wrong kind of Florida story
	🥁 4:26pm david w: I bet dried chiles make a nice crinkling sound, but don't touch your eyes (or pee).
	4:32pm fred: A former coworker was in the Red Army at the time of the Chernobyl accident. His train from Kazakhstan to Armenia just got through a hub when the alert came, so he didn't get sent there
	4:34pm northguineahills: @fred: Are you kidding, I'm now Florida Man, doing whatever Florida man can ("hold my beer and watch this!")
	🥁 4:35pm david w: I believe the Estonians in this band have dispersed across Europe to avoid another toxic threat.
	4:35pm northguineahills: I'm nearly immune to chilies and my skin, If I rub my eyes w/ the hottest chilies, I just get a mild annoying burning sensation.
	4:44pm fred: "rub my eyes with chillies" I'm afraid he's gone full Florida on us, folks, he may be too far gone by now
	4:50pm fred: Rare to hear a good turntablist set these days. Joke Lanz can pull it off
	🥁 4:51pm david w: Agreed. I believe Christian still performs with his old turntables now and then. Still fresh, almost dependably brilliant.
	4:54pm Webhamster Henry: Sounds like Marclay had his hands on some Carl Stalling material!
	4:56pm fred: Kid Koala is still good, though not as good as when he blew my mind playing Moon River 10 years ago
	🥁 4:57pm listener james from westwood: Many thanks, David and Ruth!
	🥁 4:58pm david w: You are all great, thinks to you!
	4:58pm Mary Wing: Is it done?
	🥁 4:58pm david w: Think thank thunk.
	🥁 4:59pm david w: Get ready Mary!
	5:00pm northguineahills: Ack, missed Marclay b/c of work!
	5:00pm fred: Thanks David (and Ruth, don't get too quick to start writing that book now that I've kinda committed to match)
