Listener comments!
	🛎 12:04pm βrian: Not sure how I got here but ....
	12:04pm Rich in Washington: Me neither. A blinding white light, then here I am.
	12:06pm rw: I'm in.
	12:07pm ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°): ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
	12:07pm Carmichael: Heya Mary and others who have mysteriously reached salvation.
	12:12pm Sem: I'll have 100% of whatever you've got going here today, Mary. NO, make it 110%. Hello, all.
	🛎 12:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ramping up slowly. We have until 7 tonight to reach 100%.
	12:12pm fleep: In the mist, I see ... a castle. A beautiful white castle. Wait, that's a White Castle. Who wants sliders?
	12:17pm Mary Wing: Hello, radio friends!! Oh my gosh, I crave the White Castle wave right now, ack.
	🛎 12:19pm βrian: Until a few years ago, I never knew what a slider was.
	🛎 12:19pm βrian: It sounds like a kind of cocktail served in a dim 1970s bar.
	12:21pm Rich in Washington: I only recently learned that it was 'gonna grind me a White Castle slider out of India's sacred cow' in the Butthole Surfers' Moving to Florida.
	12:22pm Rich in Washington: I never knew what a slider was until hipster eateries started popping up in my town. We don't know White Castle from Burger Chef 'round these parts.
	12:26pm Mary Wing: Burger Chef? That's a food chain?
	12:27pm Mary Wing: Love Moving To Florida--must fit it in the show somehow!
	12:27pm fleep: For fifteen cents (a nickel and a dime), at Burger Chef, you'll eat better every time. That's how far back it goes.
	12:32pm Mary Wing: Heh. Those were the days.
	12:33pm JakeGould: White Castle burgers really don’t sit too well.
	12:33pm JakeGould: HELLO MARY!!!
	12:34pm Webhamster Henry: We're getting 200% whatever today?
	12:34pm Mary Wing: Hello Jake! Yeah, you pay for them later, but until then, sliders rule.
	12:35pm Mary Wing: Hi Henry, 166%, give or take a few bits.
	12:40pm JakeGould: Have enough psyllium husk and it can be less of a torment later.
	🛎 12:44pm βrian: And then there are Blimpy Burgers, whose motto is "Cheaper than food."
	12:45pm Rich in Washington: Our local burger chain 'round these parts was Burgerville, with little double cheeseburgers and their patented spread. Wonderful. But they're labor bustin' corporate scum now, so screw 'em.
	12:53pm spodiodi: top of the mornin'/aft -- sounding good :)
	12:56pm Mary Wing: Hi ho, spodiodi!
	1:02pm JakeGould: The best burger deal I have had recently is from a local newsstand that shall remain nameless that does burgers and fries with a can of soda for $7. Tastes just like the old fast food burgers of the 1970s but I don’t feel sick afterwards. Like real food!
	1:10pm Mary Wing: Nice! Much as I like Shake Shack burgers, playing $15+ for a burger and fries just rubs me the wrong way.
	1:11pm JakeGould: @Mary: I was around 23rd Street, there was no line so I ordered a basic shack burger and fries. Would have been a $9 meal… But the water was $3?!?!?! I regret that.
	1:11pm david w: Burger talk, eh? OK. Steak n' Shake anyone?
	🛎 1:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...hell I'm even particular about my veggie burgers - so...this is gonna be about how I'm gonna fit in today I guess...
	1:14pm Michael 98145: * ding *
	1:15pm Mary Wing: Hiya David, RevRab, and Micheal! I saw the clickystar and knew RR had arrived!
	1:16pm Michael 98145: I'll take a lamb burger
	🛎 1:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Ladies & Gentleman We Are Floating in Grease...
	1:20pm Mary Wing: Not sure why the tracks are broken up like this on Spotify; they aren't on the LP or on his Bandcamp page. But whatever, I'll mark them as separate tracks.
	1:23pm david w: Does Spotify misspell Basinski's name?
	1:24pm Mary Wing: No, just me, heh!
	1:25pm Michael 98145: Another bad restaurant name: Taste of Greece
	1:26pm Michael 98145: ... or House of Greece
	1:26pm Mary Wing: I guess I need to do a mash up Basinski with Kinski, heh.
	🛎 1:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: Greece Shack?
	🛎 1:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well - I asks the new guy on the mxing desk to work the sliders...next thing I know...
	1:37pm ɛɨk: I prefer the Turkey Shack.
	1:38pm Mary Wing: Hey there, Ike! Constantinople Shack!
	1:38pm Michael 98145: this is wonderful. thank you.
	1:39pm Carmichael: There is something out here called the Impossible Burger (as in, impossible to tell that it's a meatless burger), but I have yet to try it.
	1:39pm Mary Wing: Yes, it is. Don't know how I'd mix in Kinski, though. OH! What about KLAUS KINSKI??
	1:41pm Rich in Washington: This is lovely, Mary.
	🛎 1:41pm βrian: Lovely. I wonder how many folks have covered William Basinski.
	1:42pm Michael 98145: why do people who don't eat meat want to eat something that tastes like meat? just asking.
	1:43pm Rich in Washington: We've got a corporate chain of fancy-ass burgers around here called Killer Burger.
	1:44pm Carmichael: Since you're filling in for Kenzo, you could weave some lines from Fitzcaraldo in and out of the music
	🛎 1:44pm βrian: They really just want umami without the effort.
	1:44pm Michael 98145: surprised some smart-ass hasn't started a Nothing Burger chain
	1:45pm Rich in Washington: I don't have a joke about Killer Burger but when you get to be my age, they're all killers.
	🛎 1:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @M98145: Good tasting something that is healthier, environmentally better & more humane.& - yerknow - just throw a boiger together...
	1:45pm Carmichael: There's been a place near UC Davis for years called Murder Burger. The City Council finally forced a name change; it's now called Redrum Burger.
	🛎 1:46pm βrian: I wonder if there's such a thing as krill burger. That might even be sustainable.
	🛎 1:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wull there's Lab Cow now...
	1:47pm Rich in Washington: Wasn't there some headline a while ago where some guy's family tried to sue when their loved one ate a burger called a heart attack burger and he died of a heart attack?
	🛎 1:47pm βrian: Soon they'll find a way to grow kale in a laboratory.
	1:48pm Michael 98145: 3-D printed Algal Burger
	🛎 1:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Like - it's right on the label... But just as bad tasting?
	1:49pm Rich in Washington: The end stage of capitalism will be when they grow humans in a lab to be eaten by other humans and finally forgo the lab grown human stage.
	1:50pm Michael 98145: @Rich, isn't that in the GOP platform?
	🛎 1:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: en.wikipedia.org...
	1:51pm Carmichael: I saw a show about fast food chains who make food in other countries. McDonalds has a Maharishi Burger (chicken curry) in India, and Japan has some truly wild burgers (wasabi, unagi, etc ..) delivered in this Hello Kitty decor. People even get married there.
	1:51pm Rich in Washington: @Michael 98145: yes. Internally. Mustn't let the rubes catch on...
	1:51pm Rich in Washington: Hey! I was just talkin' about this track!
	1:52pm Mary Wing: Gotta hear it, man!
	1:52pm Rich in Washington: It was the Melvins' version that clarified that lyric for me. Something about the delivery/annunciation.
	🛎 1:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if I say Beefheart, Ween & Butthole Surfers...sounds like I'm still talkin' about Burgers...
	1:53pm Rich in Washington: OK, I can DEFINITELY hear it now.
	1:54pm Parq: Wow, I just heard this Butthole track for the first time last night -- listening to -- TA Da!-- Mary's 2015 marathon premium, which I picked up at the record fair.
	🛎 1:54pm βrian: Where's NGH, by the way?
	1:54pm rw: I've never heard this. You guys are all too hip for me.
	1:54pm Mary Wing: A Melvins version?? Is this a 3oak in the making??
	1:54pm Rich in Washington: The Buttholes were on fire during this period. Was fortunate to have seen them a few times around this era. Just amazing.
	1:55pm Rich in Washington: It's on their last album, recorded with BHS's Jeff Pinkus.
	1:56pm Rich in Washington: Got to see that lineup live last summer. It was great. The Melvins still got it.
	1:56pm coelacanth∅: hello Mary & 100%ers
	1:57pm Rich in Washington: Hi coelacanth∅! How is?
	🛎 1:57pm βrian: On fire? That'll teach to eat those ghost chili peppers.
	🛎 1:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 20years. I am lazier than Joe Belock...
	1:58pm Mary Wing: Hi coela!
	1:58pm Mary Wing: Joe Belock is NOT LAZY! :-)
	1:59pm coelacanth∅: hey Rich! it sure is!
	🛎 2:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah but he always says that...
	2:05pm Parq: Sherman, set the Wayback Machine for the mid-80s.
	2:05pm coelacanth∅: that would be William Basinski going for the extra buck. (or nickle) (there are countless 25 minute + tracks on snotify)
	2:06pm spodiodi: glad i got to see this live in '88 on the Graceland tour
	2:07pm spodiodi: (maybe '87? so long ago)
	2:07pm Mary Wing: Nice, was Ladysmith with him?
	2:08pm coelacanth∅: actually Basinski has several tracks on spotify that exceed 25 minutes, at least one exceeding an hour...
	2:08pm spodiodi: Ladysmith was great. had to see them alone a couple of times after. Yes, at the Spectrum (I think) in Philly, yo
	2:09pm Mary Wing: Yes, coela, but wouldn't he do that for Bandcamp too? Don't they pay per play?
	2:09pm coelacanth∅: (so maybe he had other reasons for dividing that up)
	🛎 2:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ok : twitter.com...
	2:09pm spodiodi: Looking forward to the covers B^)
	2:11pm spodiodi: Ladysmith was exceedingly praiseful and gracious to Mr. Simon, and kept referring to him as "the door" or "the bridge" or something like that
	2:12pm coelacanth∅: as far as i know bandcamp doesn't charge anything or pay anything to listen to it. but if you haven't sold a certain (very low) monetary figure's-worth via bandcamp you may not upload tracks over a certain size; so you either have to divide them up or lower the quality of the file.
	2:13pm rw: Okay, this is going to sound a little mean but I don't intend it that way and just thought it was kind of funny/interesting: I saw a museum show about Paul Simon not long ago. There was a button in the exhibit. Normal sized button. But in the photo of Paul with the same button on his guitar strap it looked WAY oversized. Simon must be pretty... uh... not tall.
	2:14pm spodiodi: see: call me al video for chevy chase comparison
	2:14pm Michael 98145: @rw, i do find that funny
	🛎 2:14pm βrian: Do they make special machines just to produce that guitar skank riff?
	2:15pm Sem: Just a touch under 5 foot 3.
	2:15pm coelacanth∅: haha -i think he is pretty not tall!
	2:15pm Sem: www.findheight.com...
	🛎 2:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If he'd only written 'Sounds of Silence' - he'd be noted by me...
	2:17pm doctorjazz: Cool song for the treatment! Hi Mary and all out there. Did you ever see the pictures of Simon and Garfunkle? Art TOWERED over Paul.
	2:18pm Michael 98145: ooh. i like that Dani track.
	2:18pm spodiodi: in fact, in every appearance, he's pretty notably not tall, regardless of company. the guitar alone provides scale
	2:18pm Mary Wing: Howdy doctorjazz! Everyone towers over Paul!
	2:18pm coelacanth∅: i'm curious about Jessica Pratt (the "folk" singer, not the soprano singer) i think she's pretty not tall.
	2:19pm spodiodi: imagine him next to Lurch, or Manute Bol.
	2:20pm doctorjazz: Simon is a cousin of some sort of my wife (her family is ticked off because he's never kept in touch). Love a Capella!
	2:20pm spodiodi: 6'9" and 7'7" dag
	2:22pm spodiodi: the doo wop version was fun
	2:22pm Parq: Spodiodi, once on "Laugh-In", I saw Sammy Davis Jr and Artie Johnson next to Wilt Chamberlain -- looked like a couple of little kids. I imagine Paul Simon next to Ted Cassidy would have had the same effect.
	2:23pm Roberto: In short, Paul's a wee feller.
	2:24pm coelacanth∅: well apparently that website has neither Art Garfunkel nor Jessica Pratt
	2:25pm Michael 98145: Hootenanny
	2:26pm spodiodi: i bet, Parq. I bet Princess Leia seemed like a good match at the time.
	2:26pm northguineahills: Well, contacting the VP of a company who used to be my boss 19 years ago, worked. I originally got rejected by HR b/c I don't have a BS (Only a few BAs), but I explained my experience, and is scheduling an interview. (and it's less then six blocks away, I can walk there).
	2:27pm Scraps: I thought everybody knew Simon was short. Certainly I knew (I’m 5-3). I mean, Connie Hawkins vs Paul Simon at basketball on Saturday Night Live was famous. I guess everybody is going to be laughing about his shortness on his deathbed.....
	2:28pm Michael 98145: Great, @ngh! Good luck.
	🛎 2:28pm βrian: Hexvessel: best so far.
	2:28pm spodiodi: yeah, good luck , ngh
	🛎 2:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Friend said - c'mon - Simon & Garfunkel are the Yuppie BobDylan. Yeah - but they GOOD @ it... Kick Astronaut ngh.
	2:29pm Mary Wing: And hey there rw, Parq, NGH, and Scraps!
	2:30pm Parq: NGH, kill 'em.
	2:31pm rw: Hey Mary!
	2:32pm doctorjazz: Good luck, NGH!
	2:33pm northguineahills: Thanks. everyone, and good to see Scraps again!
	2:34pm Scraps: h’lo ngh
	2:35pm Scraps: & h’lo Mary Wing
	2:37pm spodiodi: i hear you scraps... i never thought he was very tall.
	2:38pm coelacanth∅: well i wouldn't call Simon OR Garfunkel yuppies -probably ever, but certainly not in the 60s. they played pop-folk, that's all -and better than anyone else.
	2:40pm Sem: As much as I played the hell out of Graceland, I still prefer the album preceding it, Hearts and Bones.
	2:40pm northguineahills: Huh, I believe Graceland was the last album my father bought. I should have know this song, as I listened to it a lot as a little kid.
	🛎 2:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously. 'Bookends' be earlier than I thot. Why don't they talk about that in 'Great Albums'...
	2:42pm Michael 98145: This is certainly the most times i've heard this song this century ...
	2:44pm coelacanth∅: ...and, isn't it basically Tom Wilson who turned them into pop-folk, from straight-up folk?
	🛎 2:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Electric bits were put on 'Sounds of Silence' later w/out their knowledge & released - & wham-o.
	2:46pm Mary Wing: Really? I didn't know that; bet Paul was pissed!
	2:47pm coelacanth∅: right. their first album was a pure (non-yuppie!) folk record. just guitars and bass, pretty much.
	2:47pm coelacanth∅: yeah, i think Paul was pissed!
	🛎 2:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wonder. Think he minded a Hit? I would think you know what yer in for w/ TomWilson...??...
	2:48pm spodiodi: hard to picture him pissed. he always seems so completely chill
	2:49pm coelacanth∅: if i remember correctly he'd given up on the duo and left for the uk by himself, then heard that an augmented version of his song that he'd never heard was sweeping the us.
	🛎 2:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I can see him NYC p.o.ed...
	2:53pm coelacanth∅: yeah i don't know how pissed he was once the checks started coming in. + "folk-rock" was starting to happen (animals, byrds, etc) so probably was about ready to embrace the change anyway. (totally guessing about all that!)
	🛎 2:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dylan & Simon both made major early sojourns to stock up Traditional UK Folk to pilfer...harhar...Well - they were serious about it.
	2:53pm Sem: Thank you, Mary, for giving, as usual, 100% pure whatever. See you and all next time 'round the block.
	2:53pm spodiodi: Magma version is cool. Love the glockenspiel or xylophone or whatever that is
	2:54pm Michael 98145: Wonder if there is a Hawkwind version. Thanks again, Mary W •♫
	2:54pm coelacanth∅: (glock)
	2:56pm northguineahills: Happy thanks, Mary!
	2:58pm spodiodi: Thanks for the tunes, Mary Wing! 100% fun
	2:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Mary!
	🛎 2:58pm βrian: Thanks, Mary.
	3:00pm Mary Wing: Thanks for listening, more covers in the archive!

	🛎 12:04pm βrian: Not sure how I got here but ....
	12:04pm Rich in Washington: Me neither. A blinding white light, then here I am.
	12:06pm rw: I'm in.
	12:07pm ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°): ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
	12:07pm Carmichael: Heya Mary and others who have mysteriously reached salvation.
	12:12pm Sem: I'll have 100% of whatever you've got going here today, Mary. NO, make it 110%. Hello, all.
	🛎 12:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ramping up slowly. We have until 7 tonight to reach 100%.
	12:12pm fleep: In the mist, I see ... a castle. A beautiful white castle. Wait, that's a White Castle. Who wants sliders?
	12:17pm Mary Wing: Hello, radio friends!! Oh my gosh, I crave the White Castle wave right now, ack.
	🛎 12:19pm βrian: Until a few years ago, I never knew what a slider was.
	🛎 12:19pm βrian: It sounds like a kind of cocktail served in a dim 1970s bar.
	12:21pm Rich in Washington: I only recently learned that it was 'gonna grind me a White Castle slider out of India's sacred cow' in the Butthole Surfers' Moving to Florida.
	12:22pm Rich in Washington: I never knew what a slider was until hipster eateries started popping up in my town. We don't know White Castle from Burger Chef 'round these parts.
	12:26pm Mary Wing: Burger Chef? That's a food chain?
	12:27pm Mary Wing: Love Moving To Florida--must fit it in the show somehow!
	12:27pm fleep: For fifteen cents (a nickel and a dime), at Burger Chef, you'll eat better every time. That's how far back it goes.
	12:32pm Mary Wing: Heh. Those were the days.
	12:33pm JakeGould: White Castle burgers really don’t sit too well.

	12:34pm Mary Wing: Hello Jake! Yeah, you pay for them later, but until then, sliders rule.
	12:35pm Mary Wing: Hi Henry, 166%, give or take a few bits.
	12:40pm JakeGould: Have enough psyllium husk and it can be less of a torment later.
	🛎 12:44pm βrian: And then there are Blimpy Burgers, whose motto is "Cheaper than food."
	12:45pm Rich in Washington: Our local burger chain 'round these parts was Burgerville, with little double cheeseburgers and their patented spread. Wonderful. But they're labor bustin' corporate scum now, so screw 'em.
	12:53pm spodiodi: top of the mornin'/aft -- sounding good :)
	12:56pm Mary Wing: Hi ho, spodiodi!
	1:02pm JakeGould: The best burger deal I have had recently is from a local newsstand that shall remain nameless that does burgers and fries with a can of soda for $7. Tastes just like the old fast food burgers of the 1970s but I don’t feel sick afterwards. Like real food!
	1:10pm Mary Wing: Nice! Much as I like Shake Shack burgers, playing $15+ for a burger and fries just rubs me the wrong way.
	1:11pm JakeGould: @Mary: I was around 23rd Street, there was no line so I ordered a basic shack burger and fries. Would have been a $9 meal… But the water was $3?!?!?! I regret that.
	1:11pm david w: Burger talk, eh? OK. Steak n' Shake anyone?
	🛎 1:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...hell I'm even particular about my veggie burgers - so...this is gonna be about how I'm gonna fit in today I guess...
	1:14pm Michael 98145: * ding *
	1:15pm Mary Wing: Hiya David, RevRab, and Micheal! I saw the clickystar and knew RR had arrived!
	1:16pm Michael 98145: I'll take a lamb burger
	🛎 1:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Ladies & Gentleman We Are Floating in Grease...
	1:20pm Mary Wing: Not sure why the tracks are broken up like this on Spotify; they aren't on the LP or on his Bandcamp page. But whatever, I'll mark them as separate tracks.
	1:23pm david w: Does Spotify misspell Basinski's name?
	1:24pm Mary Wing: No, just me, heh!
	1:25pm Michael 98145: Another bad restaurant name: Taste of Greece
	1:26pm Michael 98145: ... or House of Greece
	1:26pm Mary Wing: I guess I need to do a mash up Basinski with Kinski, heh.
	🛎 1:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: Greece Shack?
	🛎 1:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well - I asks the new guy on the mxing desk to work the sliders...next thing I know...
	1:37pm ɛɨk: I prefer the Turkey Shack.
	1:38pm Mary Wing: Hey there, Ike! Constantinople Shack!
	1:38pm Michael 98145: this is wonderful. thank you.
	1:39pm Carmichael: There is something out here called the Impossible Burger (as in, impossible to tell that it's a meatless burger), but I have yet to try it.
	1:39pm Mary Wing: Yes, it is. Don't know how I'd mix in Kinski, though. OH! What about KLAUS KINSKI??
	1:41pm Rich in Washington: This is lovely, Mary.
	🛎 1:41pm βrian: Lovely. I wonder how many folks have covered William Basinski.
	1:42pm Michael 98145: why do people who don't eat meat want to eat something that tastes like meat? just asking.
	1:43pm Rich in Washington: We've got a corporate chain of fancy-ass burgers around here called Killer Burger.
	1:44pm Carmichael: Since you're filling in for Kenzo, you could weave some lines from Fitzcaraldo in and out of the music
	🛎 1:44pm βrian: They really just want umami without the effort.
	1:44pm Michael 98145: surprised some smart-ass hasn't started a Nothing Burger chain
	1:45pm Rich in Washington: I don't have a joke about Killer Burger but when you get to be my age, they're all killers.
	🛎 1:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @M98145: Good tasting something that is healthier, environmentally better & more humane.& - yerknow - just throw a boiger together...
	1:45pm Carmichael: There's been a place near UC Davis for years called Murder Burger. The City Council finally forced a name change; it's now called Redrum Burger.
	🛎 1:46pm βrian: I wonder if there's such a thing as krill burger. That might even be sustainable.
	🛎 1:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wull there's Lab Cow now...
	1:47pm Rich in Washington: Wasn't there some headline a while ago where some guy's family tried to sue when their loved one ate a burger called a heart attack burger and he died of a heart attack?
	🛎 1:47pm βrian: Soon they'll find a way to grow kale in a laboratory.
	1:48pm Michael 98145: 3-D printed Algal Burger
	🛎 1:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Like - it's right on the label... But just as bad tasting?
	1:49pm Rich in Washington: The end stage of capitalism will be when they grow humans in a lab to be eaten by other humans and finally forgo the lab grown human stage.
	1:50pm Michael 98145: @Rich, isn't that in the GOP platform?
	🛎 1:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: en.wikipedia.org...
	1:51pm Carmichael: I saw a show about fast food chains who make food in other countries. McDonalds has a Maharishi Burger (chicken curry) in India, and Japan has some truly wild burgers (wasabi, unagi, etc ..) delivered in this Hello Kitty decor. People even get married there.
	1:51pm Rich in Washington: @Michael 98145: yes. Internally. Mustn't let the rubes catch on...
	1:51pm Rich in Washington: Hey! I was just talkin' about this track!
	1:52pm Mary Wing: Gotta hear it, man!
	1:52pm Rich in Washington: It was the Melvins' version that clarified that lyric for me. Something about the delivery/annunciation.
	🛎 1:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if I say Beefheart, Ween & Butthole Surfers...sounds like I'm still talkin' about Burgers...
	1:53pm Rich in Washington: OK, I can DEFINITELY hear it now.
	1:54pm Parq: Wow, I just heard this Butthole track for the first time last night -- listening to -- TA Da!-- Mary's 2015 marathon premium, which I picked up at the record fair.
	🛎 1:54pm βrian: Where's NGH, by the way?
	1:54pm rw: I've never heard this. You guys are all too hip for me.
	1:54pm Mary Wing: A Melvins version?? Is this a 3oak in the making??
	1:54pm Rich in Washington: The Buttholes were on fire during this period. Was fortunate to have seen them a few times around this era. Just amazing.
	1:55pm Rich in Washington: It's on their last album, recorded with BHS's Jeff Pinkus.
	1:56pm Rich in Washington: Got to see that lineup live last summer. It was great. The Melvins still got it.
	1:56pm coelacanth∅: hello Mary & 100%ers
	1:57pm Rich in Washington: Hi coelacanth∅! How is?
	🛎 1:57pm βrian: On fire? That'll teach to eat those ghost chili peppers.
	🛎 1:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 20years. I am lazier than Joe Belock...
	1:58pm Mary Wing: Hi coela!
	1:58pm Mary Wing: Joe Belock is NOT LAZY! :-)
	1:59pm coelacanth∅: hey Rich! it sure is!
	🛎 2:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah but he always says that...
	2:05pm Parq: Sherman, set the Wayback Machine for the mid-80s.
	2:05pm coelacanth∅: that would be William Basinski going for the extra buck. (or nickle) (there are countless 25 minute + tracks on snotify)
	2:06pm spodiodi: glad i got to see this live in '88 on the Graceland tour
	2:07pm spodiodi: (maybe '87? so long ago)
	2:07pm Mary Wing: Nice, was Ladysmith with him?
	2:08pm coelacanth∅: actually Basinski has several tracks on spotify that exceed 25 minutes, at least one exceeding an hour...
	2:08pm spodiodi: Ladysmith was great. had to see them alone a couple of times after. Yes, at the Spectrum (I think) in Philly, yo
	2:09pm Mary Wing: Yes, coela, but wouldn't he do that for Bandcamp too? Don't they pay per play?
	2:09pm coelacanth∅: (so maybe he had other reasons for dividing that up)
	🛎 2:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ok : twitter.com...
	2:09pm spodiodi: Looking forward to the covers B^)
	2:11pm spodiodi: Ladysmith was exceedingly praiseful and gracious to Mr. Simon, and kept referring to him as "the door" or "the bridge" or something like that
	2:12pm coelacanth∅: as far as i know bandcamp doesn't charge anything or pay anything to listen to it. but if you haven't sold a certain (very low) monetary figure's-worth via bandcamp you may not upload tracks over a certain size; so you either have to divide them up or lower the quality of the file.
	2:13pm rw: Okay, this is going to sound a little mean but I don't intend it that way and just thought it was kind of funny/interesting: I saw a museum show about Paul Simon not long ago. There was a button in the exhibit. Normal sized button. But in the photo of Paul with the same button on his guitar strap it looked WAY oversized. Simon must be pretty... uh... not tall.
	2:14pm spodiodi: see: call me al video for chevy chase comparison
	2:14pm Michael 98145: @rw, i do find that funny
	🛎 2:14pm βrian: Do they make special machines just to produce that guitar skank riff?
	2:15pm Sem: Just a touch under 5 foot 3.
	2:15pm coelacanth∅: haha -i think he is pretty not tall!
	2:15pm Sem: www.findheight.com...
	🛎 2:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If he'd only written 'Sounds of Silence' - he'd be noted by me...
	2:17pm doctorjazz: Cool song for the treatment! Hi Mary and all out there. Did you ever see the pictures of Simon and Garfunkle? Art TOWERED over Paul.
	2:18pm Michael 98145: ooh. i like that Dani track.
	2:18pm spodiodi: in fact, in every appearance, he's pretty notably not tall, regardless of company. the guitar alone provides scale
	2:18pm Mary Wing: Howdy doctorjazz! Everyone towers over Paul!
	2:18pm coelacanth∅: i'm curious about Jessica Pratt (the "folk" singer, not the soprano singer) i think she's pretty not tall.
	2:19pm spodiodi: imagine him next to Lurch, or Manute Bol.
	2:20pm doctorjazz: Simon is a cousin of some sort of my wife (her family is ticked off because he's never kept in touch). Love a Capella!
	2:20pm spodiodi: 6'9" and 7'7" dag
	2:22pm spodiodi: the doo wop version was fun
	2:22pm Parq: Spodiodi, once on "Laugh-In", I saw Sammy Davis Jr and Artie Johnson next to Wilt Chamberlain -- looked like a couple of little kids. I imagine Paul Simon next to Ted Cassidy would have had the same effect.
	2:23pm Roberto: In short, Paul's a wee feller.
	2:24pm coelacanth∅: well apparently that website has neither Art Garfunkel nor Jessica Pratt
	2:25pm Michael 98145: Hootenanny
	2:26pm spodiodi: i bet, Parq. I bet Princess Leia seemed like a good match at the time.
	2:26pm northguineahills: Well, contacting the VP of a company who used to be my boss 19 years ago, worked. I originally got rejected by HR b/c I don't have a BS (Only a few BAs), but I explained my experience, and is scheduling an interview. (and it's less then six blocks away, I can walk there).
	2:27pm Scraps: I thought everybody knew Simon was short. Certainly I knew (I’m 5-3). I mean, Connie Hawkins vs Paul Simon at basketball on Saturday Night Live was famous. I guess everybody is going to be laughing about his shortness on his deathbed.....
	2:28pm Michael 98145: Great, @ngh! Good luck.
	🛎 2:28pm βrian: Hexvessel: best so far.
	2:28pm spodiodi: yeah, good luck , ngh
	🛎 2:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Friend said - c'mon - Simon & Garfunkel are the Yuppie BobDylan. Yeah - but they GOOD @ it... Kick Astronaut ngh.
	2:29pm Mary Wing: And hey there rw, Parq, NGH, and Scraps!
	2:30pm Parq: NGH, kill 'em.
	2:31pm rw: Hey Mary!
	2:32pm doctorjazz: Good luck, NGH!
	2:33pm northguineahills: Thanks. everyone, and good to see Scraps again!
	2:34pm Scraps: h’lo ngh
	2:35pm Scraps: & h’lo Mary Wing
	2:37pm spodiodi: i hear you scraps... i never thought he was very tall.
	2:38pm coelacanth∅: well i wouldn't call Simon OR Garfunkel yuppies -probably ever, but certainly not in the 60s. they played pop-folk, that's all -and better than anyone else.
	2:40pm Sem: As much as I played the hell out of Graceland, I still prefer the album preceding it, Hearts and Bones.
	2:40pm northguineahills: Huh, I believe Graceland was the last album my father bought. I should have know this song, as I listened to it a lot as a little kid.
	🛎 2:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously. 'Bookends' be earlier than I thot. Why don't they talk about that in 'Great Albums'...
	2:42pm Michael 98145: This is certainly the most times i've heard this song this century ...
	2:44pm coelacanth∅: ...and, isn't it basically Tom Wilson who turned them into pop-folk, from straight-up folk?
	🛎 2:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Electric bits were put on 'Sounds of Silence' later w/out their knowledge & released - & wham-o.
	2:46pm Mary Wing: Really? I didn't know that; bet Paul was pissed!
	2:47pm coelacanth∅: right. their first album was a pure (non-yuppie!) folk record. just guitars and bass, pretty much.
	2:47pm coelacanth∅: yeah, i think Paul was pissed!
	🛎 2:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wonder. Think he minded a Hit? I would think you know what yer in for w/ TomWilson...??...
	2:48pm spodiodi: hard to picture him pissed. he always seems so completely chill
	2:49pm coelacanth∅: if i remember correctly he'd given up on the duo and left for the uk by himself, then heard that an augmented version of his song that he'd never heard was sweeping the us.
	🛎 2:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I can see him NYC p.o.ed...
	2:53pm coelacanth∅: yeah i don't know how pissed he was once the checks started coming in. + "folk-rock" was starting to happen (animals, byrds, etc) so probably was about ready to embrace the change anyway. (totally guessing about all that!)
	🛎 2:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dylan & Simon both made major early sojourns to stock up Traditional UK Folk to pilfer...harhar...Well - they were serious about it.
	2:53pm Sem: Thank you, Mary, for giving, as usual, 100% pure whatever. See you and all next time 'round the block.
	2:53pm spodiodi: Magma version is cool. Love the glockenspiel or xylophone or whatever that is
	2:54pm Michael 98145: Wonder if there is a Hawkwind version. Thanks again, Mary W •♫
	2:54pm coelacanth∅: (glock)
	2:56pm northguineahills: Happy thanks, Mary!
	2:58pm spodiodi: Thanks for the tunes, Mary Wing! 100% fun
	2:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Mary!
	🛎 2:58pm βrian: Thanks, Mary.
	3:00pm Mary Wing: Thanks for listening, more covers in the archive!
