Sat. 5 pm ET-We start with an Ulrich Schnauss tune called Monday – Paracetamol. After hearing it, I was curious about what paracetamol was, so I looked it up. It’s acetaminophen, nothing more. It seems quite a bit more potent when portrayed by an electronic orchestra. Schnauss is now based in London and has been a member of Tangerine Dream for a number of years. After that, Adam Hurst and his cello with a tune called Sacrament. Many of his works have names related to religion, and his music does sound somewhat religious, though I’m not sure which one. After that, Cathy Oakes, Lynn Patrick, and a whole lot of people named Michael – there’s much piano and guitar work there. This week, P.T. contemplates the aftermath of Saint Patrick’s Day. Maybe Ulrich Schnauss is right about acetaminophen after all. Join us. 03/16/2019
