Nice to be hear listening.

This is honestly the least prepared I've been.. I have a playlist for the whole month, but am still not sure what direction I'll go in tonight. So.. spontaneity!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:19pm
WR:

Two featured guitarist so far. Nice Jerry Hahn recording.
Avatar 7:20pm
djnogoodnick:

Yes, I'm going for an acoustic / flute / fall thing
Avatar 7:21pm
djnogoodnick:

And honestly Pat Martino was not on the playlist, but the suggestion fits the mood perfectly!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:36pm
WR:

Martino died recently, so some listeners have been requesting recently.
Avatar 7:37pm
djnogoodnick:

Oh damn, I didn't know. Always bad about following that stuff. So, yeah, extra appropriate.

Thanks djnogoodnick, hanging a star on this show, it's a keeper. Also, cheers WR.

Gerry from Miami:

This rather jazzy sounding tune by Dutch group Focus was from their first official album. But then they took the pop/rock world by storm over the next few years back in the 70s. They became a huge concert draw and struck chart gold with their rip-roaring smash, "Hocus Pocus."
Avatar 8:05pm
djnogoodnick:

@drowsy Appreciate it much!! @Gerry Thanks for that too!! I made sure to put some context (which I don't always remember to do) in the readoff for them. I know Focus have a lot of fans for their later work, but I really love "In and Out of Focus" the best, being more of a mellow / jazz cat.

Gerry from Miami:

Love Ken Nordine! I can remember a series of TV commercials he did about 45-50 years ago with voiceovers accompanying animated shorts. The product they were trying to sell was Levi's Jeans. Pretty effective, I thought.
Avatar 8:08pm
djnogoodnick:

To be quite honest I had never heard of Ken Nordine, but his voice sounded familiar immediately when I first heard the album, which says something about his immortality.

Gerry from Miami:

I bought the first couple of records by the jazz/ rock band, If. Down Beat magazine did a feature comparing Blood, Sweat and Tears, Chicago , If, maybe Colosseum as well. They thought all of these "rock" bands with horns and vocals were OK, nothing special, if I recall. I was intrigued, nonetheless, and to this day still pull out records by all of them. Vive le saxophone!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:18pm
WR:

This album cover for If I found to be memorable.

Hi there drowsy
And thank you Nick for slipping in the Martino track.
Avatar 8:21pm
djnogoodnick:

Yes that's a Zappa-esque album cover!!
  8:31pm
Gerry from Miami:

Oh yeah, "The City!" Living in LA during the 70s, the default jazz station in town was KBCA. They wore out the grooves on this one!! I knew when this record was current, I could hear it at least once or twice every day. This one, as well as "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" by Gil-Scott Heron, the lead piece from the Siegel-Schwall Blues Band on their collaboration album with the San Francisco Symphony and all the early work from saxophonist John Klemmer got plenty of airplay. I thank this station for leading me to the trailhead of that long road toward jazz "Nirvana."
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:32pm
WR:

A few different WFMU DJs have played Nordine tracks from the Colors album recently. A coincidence or has something brought that album into focus recently?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:35pm
WR:

Cutting out a bit early tonight, thank you Nick for keeping it going. Laters all
Avatar 8:39pm
djnogoodnick:

@WR Who knows how the algorithms work? I believe I got it recommended to me but it seems to fit the times. Thanks as usual for staying up (extra hour) and listening / joining in!!
  8:54pm
Gerry from Miami:

I heard a lot of flute here tonight. Thank you for that! Maybe one day in the near future you could devote a whole program to creative jazz/rock/pop flautists. I had the good fortune back in the 70s to befriend and go to concerts and events with one Mr. James Newton, 23-time winner of "Best Flute" in the annual Down Beat magazine International Critics' Poll (biggest thrill---James introducing me to Cecil Taylor in his backstage dressing room after a concert at UCLA). Great show tonight. Thanks for playing all this great music! This program will be permanently on my weekly schedule from now on!
Avatar 8:56pm
djnogoodnick:

@Gerry from Miami: Thank you for the kind words, and also remembrances. I do love jazz flute especially during the fall, so if you tune in you'll be hearing more of it. Also there's a city / country theme I guess I subconsciously put it in here. I'm located in NYC but lived in Miami briefly a few years ago and the jazz scene there was amazing..
Avatar 8:57pm
djnogoodnick:

I've also made a note of James Newton and will be sure to check his discography
  8:57pm
Gerry from Miami:

Again, thanks!
