trippy, dude. LSD was more psychedlic than the original. i think lennon would have approved. i listened to it at work, and it helped to make my brain eater go by that much more pleasingly. i thought it was just plain old fashioned "far out, man!"
kudos to david garland for an interesting hour of sonic freakwaves.
No joke for me... I loved this and am playing with the Paul's Stretch software now. Thanks for the great tip.
I like it. More about the program's algorithm next time!
Beautiful!!!
The original Garland is back! BRAVO, man!
This is the most exciting show that I've heard on WNYC in years!
I am serious. I love it!
Keep on keepin' on!

That's incredibly beautiful!
Haha! I thought it was Paulstretch! Nice work--I hadn't heard the Beatles stretched with the program yet.
For those interested, this extreme audio stretching got wider renown when someone posted a stream of Beethoven's 9th symphony stretched to 24 hours. Each change in pitch becomes quite moving, with even more emotional weight than one might imagine. Of course, patience is a key ingredient for this sort of listening.
I think there's also a Justin Bieber stretch, which actually comes out kinda pretty.
I recommend that you repeat air this at the time of your next fund raiser.
I must be missing something here...
What is the point of stretching and distorting these songs?
If it was meant as a joke, I don't get it.
This is an April Fool's joke right? This is a remarkably bad episode. I'm going to turn wnyc off until Splendid Table comes on at 9...

Completely idiotic.
