Jumping from link to link to link. It started with watching the Doctor Who episode, “Mummy on the Orient Express.” Then I looked up the Perkins character (he would’ve been a great companion) and a note in an article got me looking for the episode’s 1920’s version of “Don’t Stop Me Now,” which included an official video of it, and also a Queen video of the song. I looked up the song year in Wikipedia, which took me to the Freddie Mercury 65th birthday google doodle.

"He was called the King of Easy Listening and the Emperor of Elevator Music. James Last, often called the world's most commercially successful bandleader, who recorded more than 200 albums and sold 100 million-plus discs in his decades-long career, died this week at the age of 86.

"Last was as much heralded as he was despised, but there is no questioning his success or his influence. Anyone who has spent time in a hotel lobby (or elevator) knows the Last sound: smooth, jaunty tunes that mix jazz and pop into a seamless, inoffensive whole. [...] - bentley - -

"His 1965 album, Non Stop Dancing, established the Last sound. It included seamless transitions between songs -- it can be argued Last invented, or at least perfected, the idea of the music medley -- and captured the jaunty, party atmosphere that became his trademark. While the sound never really changed, Last was adept at always including new, modern elements and incorporating pop music tunes -- from the Beatles to hip hop -- into his non-stop formula." - bentley - -

What's this music? They used it as a bumper on Saturday's "Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!" http://www.npr.org/progra... at the 8:48 mark on segment 1. I've heard it before but I don't know music. Help, please?

I was hoping the music was listed *somewhere*. Can't find it. However, I found out that Peter Sagal did a Reddit AMA earlier this month http://www.reddit.com/r/I... Fun! (And via that, I learned that there's an xkcd cartoon about Peter Sagal https://xkcd.com/997/ ) - bentley - -

NPR answered my email: "Thank you for contacting NPR. We're happy to assist you. The song you heard was M79 by Vampire Weekend. We make an effort to list music interludes for our programs. Since Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me is produced in Chicago and not at NPR headquarters, the process for receiving and posting their music interludes is a little different. It does not look like their music has regularly been posted. We will be certain to inquire about whether that info can be posted, however please understand that we cannot guarantee any immediate change. We appreciate your patience and we regret any inconvenience. Thank you for listening to NPR, and for your continued support of public broadcasting. For the latest news and information, visit NPR.org.

It turned out not to be my last post. Got involved in something that required me to make a few more before the shutdown. - April Russo - -

Interesting. The friendfeed-media.com links still work. e.g., http://m.friendfeed-media... which was attached to Big Joe Silence's post (Neil Finn - The Spirit Of The Stairs (live at Abbey Road, 1998) So, if you had some Listening Room posts saved but hadn't saved the actual mp3s, you might still have a chance. Maybe.
