Michael, you were clearly listening to our discussion of "noise" and music on "Soundcheck" Friday afternoon. Somehow your comment got posted to my night-time show instead. But it's a neat story. (For a Mets fan...)

Rick, the other ambient slide guitar music was by Daniel Lanois, from his album "Belladonna." We'll get the full playlist posted soon with all the details. Thanks.

tuned in @11:50 friday 5/15/09.

you were playing chas smith - the ghosts on windows, which was awesome. you then played another artist, who played ambient pedal steel,
but i missed the name and album. pls advise.

very interesting stuff. will tune in again

i tried playing show from your archives, but it was instead playing a podcast of new choral works.

tks, rick

John, once, leaving a mets game in my car, the songs from two radio stations blended their signals, making a marvelous synthesis, with one melody canceling the other and leaving me with a spectacular double bassline and frizzy, zany cymbal play. The melodies groaned in a kind of death struggle beneath. I don't know the two songs, both rock numbers, though. The result was memorable, and opened up to some imaginary place where a different definition of music held forth.
