  Cool, I like challenging music!
  
  Not a suggestion for the show because it’s too long at 7:04, but give a listen to David Lynch’s “Crazy Clown Time” that came out last week. Wow.

  It’s every bit as bizarre as you’d expect from the name, and add to that the David Lynch factor and it’s like an explosion of oddity.

Eric Clapton’s “Modern Girl” is an usually unique & mellow song from his catalog. I’ve never heard it played on the radio.
SJ

The 10 year old would like to hear some Document-era REM. Paul would like to hear some Jaques Brel. The 12 year old suggests the Beatles. Me? How about some King Bucks. Love your show, so do the kids.

Here are my ideas, and my ideas are stated here, for music, to play, for broadcast, on your radio station, using the technology known as radio:
alvin youngblood hart – illinois blues
barbara dane – 900 hundred miles
snooks eaglin – sophisticated blues
Maggi Pierce and EJ – Jaded
Andrew Bird’s Bowl of Fire – Depression Pasillo
Dr. John Plays Mac Rebennack: The Legendary Sessions Vol. 2
Madeleine Peyroux – California raining
S. Kay

Haven’t heard Dali’s Car in years. Thanks for the reminder.
Jacobo

We’re passing through town on our way back to Austin via Eureka Springs AR and were wondering if you could play a track from Ghosts Along the Brazos, a new band from Austin. Name of the song is “Before I’m Done” and thanks, diggin the show!
Thom

‘Oh Well’ great song. That was part 1. There is also a part 2 that is a bluesy instrumental, but no one plays it.

How about playing R.E.M.’s ‘Belong’ from ‘Out of TIME’
decker

Thanks!!!
Rayne

It has been a while since I have heard anything by Gong. If you have any music by Gong I would appreciate if you played something.
Regan

A number of bands including the Hope Trust played Art Con 7 last night. One lucky person won the Octopus Piano.
Thom

How about, Toad the Wet Sprocket, ‘The Nightingale Song’ from ‘Fear’?
Shelley

The repeating chord progression in Robert Francis’ “Little Girl”(?)reminded me of “Fallen” by Storyhill, a folk duo out of Bozeman, MT. Storyhill was one of the six winners of the Kerrville Folk Festival’s New Folk singer-songwriter contest in 2007. Their tight harmonies evoke the Everlies, and their songs are intelligent and beautiful. I’d love to hear them on your show. Thanks for asking, and thanks for great, fearless programming.

Amazing show tonight! I guess I heard “Oh Well” a lot as a kid but never had a clue it was Fleetwood Mac. The Daryl Hall track was also a pleasant shock.
Amy

The Klaatu song was insanely good, but it was Spinal Tap’s Stonehenge that was a perfect finale to the weekend. Extra fun show tonight Paul!

>> I guess I heard “Oh Well” a lot as a kid but never had a clue it was Fleetwood Mac.
