Listener comments!
	7:01pm Aitch: Observing
	7:01pm doctorjazz in the Berkshires: Hi David and Deviants!
	🥁 7:02pm WR: Hi David and observers.
	🥁 7:03pm WR: Jamie Branch!?!?!? Damn. That hurts.
	7:03pm Observations: RIP jaimie breezy branch
	7:03pm doctorjazz in the Berkshires: Ouch! 39! Have her on record, sad...
	7:12pm fred: They have definitely listened to Steve Reich, as they should have
	7:15pm doctorjazz in the Berkshires: This is cool!
	7:18pm fred: @doc: do you time your purchases to when you'll be back home of just add these to your overflowing wish list?
	7:22pm doctorjazz in the Berkshires: @Fred, it's mostly just random, spur of the moment, though I do often make more of reviews or things I hear on WFMU.
	7:29pm doctorjazz in the Berkshires: *make note of reviews...
	7:29pm fred: It's become an issue for me as I get a steep tax if I'm not home when it shows up. There's no rhyme or reason to it too: I got a big box of swag with no tax, but some literary magazines get held up for weeks and taxed over 100%. I guess Emerson and Bard are hostile states
	7:31pm doctorjazz in the Berkshires: Going to a record store, especially with used records, means flicking through hundreds on slabs of vinyl until you find something interesting/affordable. My finger flicking is very out of shape...
	7:33pm fred: @doc: I'm sure you'll get back to it in no time
	8:00pm doctorjazz: Gotta run, thanks David!
	🥁 8:00pm WR: David, can you put a space or some none Japanese character after the track name 葵上曼陀羅 so that the favorite clicky star will display? TIA Laters doc
	8:04pm Observations: WR - I think I got it to show, thanks for the heads up
	🥁 8:05pm WR: Yes, David, you did and Rich in Washington beat me to clicky star it. LOL.
	8:09pm Listener Gregory: This is some prime deviance. I am proud to observe it.
	8:16pm Listener Gregory: Just read the comments re: Jamie Branch. That’s extremely sad. I just got exposed to her playing in something I listened to a week or so ago, and now she’s gone. It’s enough to make an old-timer like me feel guilty for being alive. Rest In Peace.
	8:18pm Seanarchx: great show 💯
	8:26pm coelacanth∅: hello
	8:30pm zzz: who’s in the band CJQ?
	8:31pm zzz: RIP jaimie branch. very very sad news
	🥁 8:32pm WR: The CJQ personnel at this link: www.discogs.com...
	8:33pm Listener Gregory: FYI. Discovered that the album I recently encountered Jamie Branch on is See You Out There by Dave Gisler (Intakt 378). David Murray is also featured. It seemed quite good to me.
	8:35pm zzz: thanks @WR. definitely some miles vibes on here too, even did the ‘theme’ thingy ending there. adam rudolph nice. is charles embankment from the jazz eubanks family? i wonder
	8:36pm zzz: *embankment = eubanks lol!
	8:37pm Listener Gregory: I am not available for interviews either, in case you were hoping.
	8:39pm coelacanth∅: i am, but you have to get in line. i'll meet you there and we'll talk while we're waiting in line.
	🥁 8:40pm WR: No need for an interview, LG, I think you've already revealed enough in the cumulative playlist comments to satisfy any would be biographer. oLo coelacanth
	8:46pm Listener Gregory: @WR, my life is an open book! But my only statement to the press is, “No comment.” A number of DJs have asked me to follow the same policy on their message boards, but my spirit is not yet broken!
	9:00pm Listener Gregory: Strange coincidence… Ouechemsa and Aanhanghuis are the names of my two gerbils. What’s going on here?
	9:03pm coelacanth∅: well, Ouechemsa's not common but pretty much everybody has had a gerbil named Aanhanghuis at one time or other
	9:04pm coelacanth∅: that, and Paul are the 2 most common gerbil names.
	9:05pm Listener Gregory: Yeah, I should have known I was asking for trouble.
	9:21pm Listener Gregory: Oren Ambarchi for the win! David, did you play the John Zorn version of Shuffle Boil last week??? Someone did. Don’t think I’ve heard this version.
	9:23pm zzz: ohhh stepped away and missed new ambarchi. nice to come back for monk tho
	9:28pm Observations: LG - yes, thanks, that was me last week
	9:35pm zzz: that is Monnette Sudler on guitar? new to me sounds fantastic. love the tone
	9:36pm Observations: eremiterecords.bandcamp.com...
	9:37pm Observations: zzz - yes, guitar
	🥁 9:37pm WR: Sudler is new to me too but wondering if I just haven't been paying proper attention, she worked with lots of folks.
	9:40pm northguineahills: Sudler's name is new to me, but apparently I have albums that feature her....
	9:40pm Observations: also check the group Sounds of Liberation for more Sudler. I’ve played some music by them on a previous episode
	9:46pm doctorjazz: Here for the tail end...
	9:51pm northguineahills: i could swear these bahraini pearl diver chants was rereleased recently, but, it could have been another recording....
	🥁 9:53pm WR: Yep, not paying attention, already have that Khan Jamal recording in my bandcamp wish list. I see via discogs that she has several albums of her own.
	9:53pm Observations: Lightning here in Tucson is synchronizing nicely with the pearl divers ⚡️⛈🌩
	9:58pm Listener Gregory: For all their efforts, these divers should get something more substantial than pearls, like a haddock or young octopus or something.
	9:58pm northguineahills: thanks for the observations david!
	🥁 9:58pm WR: Deep cut there from Ocora, just looked and I have this LP via the Music Republic blog. music-republic-world-traditional.blogspot.com... Look forward to listening to it all.
	🥁 9:59pm WR: Thank you, David! Onward, y'all.
	9:59pm Listener Gregory: Tonight’s show had a higher DQ than usual, David. Great work and thanks! (DQ = deviance quotient, obv)
	10:00pm Observations: Thanks everyone!
