Við ætlum að fjalla um það hvernig Landhelgisgæsla Íslands bregst við skipsbrunum, árekstrum skipa á hafi úti og alvarlegum umhverfisslysum. Í gær sigldi portúgalska flutningaskipið Solong á bandaríska olíuskipið Stena Immaculate, sem lá fyrir akkeri í Norðursjó, 16 kílómetra úti fyrir höfninni í Hull. Bæði skipin standa í ljósum lögum. Mikið magn flugvélaeldsneytis lekur í sjóinn og til að bæta gráu ofan á svart er óttast að þangað berist líka baneitrað natríumblásýrusalt. Þetta hefði allt eins getað gerst innan björgunar- og leitarsvæðis Landhelgisgæslu Íslands og hvað þá? Auðunn F. Kristinsson, framkvæmdastjóri Aðgerðarsviðs Landhelgisgæslu Íslands, kemur til okkar og ræðir þessi mál. Síðan ætlum við að flytja tvö viðtöl sem við tókum á hugvísindaþingi í Háskóla Íslands síðasta föstudag, við Toby Erik Wikström og Svövu Sigurðardóttur. Og að lokum fáum við pistil frá Páli Líndal, umhverfissálfræðingi og pistlahöfundi. Tónlist úr þættinum. PAUL SIMON - Graceland. Tutu - Qulliit. GDRN - Vorið.

In this episode of Music at a Rational Volume, Nate and Kyle disagree about one of the most recognizable, well regarded, and simultaneously controversial albums of the 80s, Paul Simon's Graceland. In the latest installment of the As Good As They Say? series, your humble hosts talk about this iconic album from 1986 which is most known for the radio hit "You Can Call Me Al" and its accompanying music video featuring Chevy Chase (who was at the height of his popularity at the time).  Graceland has won Grammys and is heralded by all the usual music industry tastemakers, but also has a sizable list of detractors so listen in to see which side Nate and Kyle land on.No playlist this week, instead check out Paul Simon's GracelandMusicatarationalvolume.com@MARVpodcast on Twittermusicatatrationvolume profile on Spotify for episode playlists based on topics discussed

We didn't think we would do this one justice, but I think we were able to give reverence to one of the great music accomplishments of our time. There's a combination of influences, on so many levels that you hear on this album and references to the forefathers of Zydeco, the Homeless, Ladysmith, Joseph and too many others to count. The Bass playing, the drumming, all amazing. You can call this one of the best albums ever.EnjoySupport the show

Paul Simon was in a slump in the early 80's.  His relationship with Art Garfunkel was at a low point, he was recently divorced from his second wife, Carrie Fisher, and his 1983 album “Hearts and Bones” was considered a commercial failure.  This album would change his fortunes.  Graceland would become his highest charting album in over a decade, his most successful studio album, and would win the 1987 Grammy for Album of the Year.  Simon lived next door to Lorne Michaels, creator of Saturday Night Live.  Michaels introduced Simon to a singer-songwriter names Heidi Berg, and Simon agreed to produce a record for her.  Berg wanted a sound like the street music from Johannesburg, South Africa, and loaned Simon a bootleg tape.  This inspired Simon to travel to South Africa, meet the musicians, and create an album using these musicians and their native sounds.  Obviously, this fractured the relationship between Simon and Berg. The album would also be controversial, because South Africa was under a cultural boycott at the time due to their apartheid policy.  Simon would counter that he was lifting up the music of the indigenous South Africans, even paying three times New York union wages and giving writing credits, but this would not quell the criticism.Nevertheless, the album would do well both commercially and critically, and introduce American mainstream audiences to world music. GracelandThe title track was named "Graceland" because the drums reminded him of a traveling rhythm you would hear in a song from Sun Records.  The lyrics reflect taking a road trip to Graceland from Louisiana on Route 61.  Some also consider it a song about using a road trip to get over the pain of divorce.Diamonds on the Soles of Her ShoesThis song features the South African choral group Ladysmith Black Mambazo.  Simon wrote it when he went to South Africa but it was not originally planned for inclusion on Graceland.  That changed when Ladysmith Black Mambazo and several other South African studio musicians were in New York for an episode of Saturday Night Live, and they decided to record it while they were in town.Under African SkiesThis deeper track references two people in the song one is Joseph Shabalala, the leader of Ladysmith Black Mambazo.  The other is Linda Ronstadt who lends her vocals to this track.  Ronstadt's inclusion in the album was particularly controversial because she had performed at Sun City, a South African apartheid resort, three years earlier.You Can Call Me AlThe hit single from the album only went to number 23 on the charts.  The names came from a party that Simon attended years prior with his first wife Peggy Harper.  French Composer Pierre Boulez, who attended the same party, mistakenly referred to Paul and Peggy as Al and Betty.  Many will remember the video starring Simon and Chevy Chase. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Somewhere Out There by James Ingram and Linda Ronstadt (from the animated film "An American Tail")This animated motion picture told the story of a family of Jewish mice and their immigration to the United States. STAFF PICKS:Goin' Crazy! by David Lee RothWayne leads off the staff picks with former Van Halen frontman, Diamond Dave.  This is his third single from his first full studio solo album "Eat 'em and Smile."  Steve Vai played guitar on this track.  The song was supposed to be the title song from a proposed comedy television production starring Roth entitled "Crazy From the Heat" Human by The Human LeagueBrian brings us one of the most beautiful cheating songs you will hear.  The Human League went to Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis in Minneapolis to produce the album.  It was a divisive decision, because the two women in the group did not accompany the other members when this song was recorded in Minneapolis.Emotion In Motion by Ric OcasekRob's staff pick by the former Cars front man reached number 15 on the Billboard Hot 100.  This is off his second solo studio album, and was his only single to hit the top 40 as a solo artist.  Ric Ocasek died in 2019.Word Up! by CameoBruce finishes off the staff picks with the highest charting single from funk band Cameo - it hit number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.  "Word Up" was an affirmation used in New York.  Larry Blackmon is the lead singer, and was inspired to use the distinctive vocal monotone you hear in this song by listening to Sly Stallone. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:The Launch by BostonBoston's long anticipated third album "Third Stage" was released this month, and contained this instrumental lead-in to "Cool the Engines."

Í fyrra gekk ljómandi vel að safna birkifræi í þjóðarátaki þar um og nú freista Landgræðslan og Skógræktin þess að safna meiru. Mismikið virðist vera af fræi eftir landshlutum þetta árið og er biðlað til fólks sérstaklega á Norður- og Austurlandi að fara út að tína. Kristinn H. Þorsteinsson veit allt um málið og við hringdum í hann og tókum stöðuna. Nú styttist í jólabókaflóðið og við erum farin að glugga í hinar ýmsu bækur. Á dögunum kom út forvitnileg fuglabók, sem við fyrstu sýn gæti verið barnabók, en er miklu meira en það. Við fórum nánar yfir það og fleira tengt bókaútgáfunni með Kristjáni Frey Halldórssyni, verkefnastjóra hjá bókaútgáfunni Sögum. Þessa dagana taka hundruð skólabarna þátt í Skólablakinu, nýju verkefni á vegum ÍSÍ, UMFÍ og fleiri blakfélaga. Fyrsta mótið fór fram í síðustu viku og gleðin heldur áfram út mánuðinn. Elsa Gunnarsdóttir verkefnastjóri hjá Blaksambandinu er ein þeirra sem leiðir verkefnið og hún var á línunni frá Ísafirði og sagði okkur meira af blakgleðinni. Nokkuð stirt er þessa dagana á milli pólskra stjórnvalda og Evrópusambandsins, enda úrskurðaði dómstóll í Póllandi á dögunum að stjórnarskráin gangi framar lögum Evrópusambandsins. En hvað þýðir þetta í hinu stóra samhengi? Við rýndum í Evrópumálin með hjálp Auðar Ingu Rúnarsdóttur, Evrópufræðingi og stundakennara við stjórnmálafræðideild Háskóla Íslands. Svo voru það íþróttir helgarinnar, alltaf nóg um að vera í sportinu og okkar kona Helga Margrét Höskuldsdóttir mætti af íþróttadeildinni og fór yfir það helsta. Tónlist: Magnús Þór - Álfar.

African influences! Bright production! Stories from when it was first released! Crawl with us this week on a special episode. Paul and James' Dad (Tom Johnson) join to go through Paul Simons big comeback album GRACELAND.

This episode focuses on Paul Simon's masterpiece, Graceland, an album that found Simon at his peak as a song writer. The making of this album was an adventure starting with a cassette lent to Simon, which resulted in a trip to South Africa during the height Apartheid, with stops in London, Louisiana, Los Angeles, and New York along the way.

Het album Graceland is een album die je zeker uniek mag noemen in de muziekwereld. Paul Simon bracht als allereerste artiest de Amerikaanse folkmuziek en Afrikaanse muziek bij elkaar in dit album. Hij werkte voor dit album veel samen met lokale artiesten in Zuid-Afrika. Deze specifieke sound horen we dan ook terug in nummers als "I Know What I Know" en "Homeless". Zijn nummer "You Can Call Me Al'' werd zijn grootste hit nadat hij in 1970 stopte met het duo Simon & Garfunkel. In deze aflevering reizen we van het huis van Elvis Presley door naar Zuid-Afrika waar we genieten van de afrikaanse hemel. • Volg ons op sociale media! : - Instagram : www.instagram.com/muziekuitdegroef - Twitter : www.twitter.com/uitdegroef • Volg ook onze afspeellijst ¨Aanraders Uit De Groef¨ met de nummers die we bespreken in iedere aflevering op Spotify! - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5Hj1ym6SO3kbhJLjw8USxP?si=r7shvmxlQi-5A35TOOKEiQ

Hallgrímur Óskarsson verkfræðingur, hefur hvatt til þess að almenningur fái að vita hver ávöxtun á lífeyrissjóðum sé og að almenningur geti borið saman sjóði með aðgengilegum hætti. Hann segir þetta ekki hafa verið hægt í þau nærri 50 ár sem fólk hefur verið skyldað til að greiða í sjóðina, ekki nema með mikilli talnavinnu og gagnasöfnun sem er á færi fárra. Hann hefur sett saman skýrslu um árangur og ávöxtun lífeyrissjóða sem kemur út á næstunni. Hallgrímur var gestur Morgunvaktarinnar. Skógareldar geysa í Svíþjóð og bændur glíma við mikla þurrka. Við ræddum við Kristján Sigurjónsson í hitanum í Stokkhólmi. Sumarhitinn hefur gert það að verkum að sólarlandaferðir seljast illa hjá skandinavískum ferðaskrifstofum en vonir eru bundnar við veturinn. Friðrik Ólafsson, fyrsti stórmeistari Íslands í skák, var gestur Morgunvaktarinnar í tilefni alþjóðlega skákdagsins. Friðrik rifjaði upp eftirminnileg atvik af löngum ferli í skákinni.

Bill, Brian, and Jesse talk about the world-spanning influences on the music like zydeco, isicathamiya, and mbaqanga, the political difficulties and possible faux pas Simon faced with apartheid South Africa, Ray Phiri's take on that and his great guitar riffs, that bass fill Bakithi Kumalo knocked out of the park, the King of the Bayou Clifton Chenier, maybe a few name drops for the Boss himself, and much more as we make our way through the album track by track! And, of course, check out this week's sponsor: !

This week on the Parrothead Podcast, Patrick and Ryan are happy to bring you a little diversion in the form of Paul Simon's famous album, Graceland. This album is not exactly in-line with Buffett's trop-rock, island-loving lifestyle, but dammit, the boys like it! Also in this episode: a particularly haunting version of These Days, performed by the ultimate sad person, Elliott Smith. Enjoy?

Paul Simon has always been attracted to new kinds of sounds. From his early band Simon & Garfunkel in the 1960s through solo albums like Graceland and Rhythm of the Saints in the '80s and '90s, up through his recent albums So Beautiful or So What and Stranger to Stranger, Simon has made music that does what the very best art can do: it resonates with our experience, re-frames it, and introduces new timbres and ideas.Recently, Simon’s curious mind has brought him into the world of contemporary classical music, mining the microtonal sound world of Harry Partch for his last record, and, just last month, collaborating with 10 composers and the ensemble yMusic on a set at the Eaux Claires music festival. On this episode of Meet the Composer – the final of Season Three – we hear Simon's perspective on his career and his most recent projects, as well as exclusive audio from the festival collaboration itself.

Singer, songwriter, king of social media, all around legend and constant source of inspiration Jeremy Neale (one third of my supergroup The Jeremys) joins me to close out Graceland week on the podcast. We talk about why Paul Simon was the original Liam Neeson, how Graceland is like a chicken burrito, how Simon became relevant a second time in middle-age, how Jeremy recently changed his sound, the similarities between Paul Simon and Phil Collins' writing processes and Jeremy's lost Simon-inspired EP.

Melbourne-based TZU co-founder and hip-hop MC-songwriter Joelistics reveals his unexpected favorite album - Paul Simon's 1986 classic "Graceland". How did his father's near-death experience get Joel into the album? Why was Simon's songwriting process similar to a hip-hop record? Why did Simon have to fail commercially before he could make Graceland? What groundbreaking production techniques made this album quintessentially 80s? How does Paul Simon's self-deprecation shine through in his lyrics? and how does this album provide a model for Joel as he starts to get older?

This podcast is composed of songs which namecheck towns I drove through on my rather epic 7500 mile drive across American in March and April of this year. Part 1 is places I drove through between collecting the van in Phoenix, collecting Meursault in Texas and then driving up to New York on their East Coast Tour. Part 2, which is coming next week, will be songs about places I drove through with Mrs. Toad on our way back to drop the van in Phoenix again. Most of the connections are a little tenuous, honestly, tending to concentrate more on the fact that the song name-checks the town in the title rather than provides a touching insight into real life in that town, but you know, superficial is kind of what we do best here. 01.
