	12:23pm Carmichael: Heya Peter and beret-wearing hep cats. Are there such a thing as Jazz Rouds??

	12:25pm DJ Peter: ↳ Carmichael @12:23 You tell me! On a previous visit to Thursday, I explored "Frankie and Johnny": wfmu.org...
	12:26pm DJ Peter: Hi Fred: is the sun still up where you are?
	12:27pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	12:28pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Peter and subterranean timekeepers
	12:28pm fred: ↳ DJ Peter @12:26 No, I work underground so I had to check. It's a rainy and gloomy day anyway.
	12:29pm doctorjazz: ↳ Yvang @12:22 Here's a link to the YouTube video of him playing it. youtu.be...
	12:30pm coelacanth∅: i hope David's okay (but for maybe nursing a wicked hangover)
	12:32pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "Train" by "Bill Frisell" i missed this piece today but coincidentally watched a short Buster Keaton documentary last night. (about his stunts)
	12:33pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:28 Greets, coel!
	12:34pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Arirang" by "US Air Force Airmen of Note" Pretty good band for enlistees...
	12:35pm DJ Peter: pot8o: humble but loved everywhere! (referring to both potatoes generally and pot8o specifically) Welcome coelacanthø!
	12:37pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:33 Aloha Andrew!
	12:53pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Invention 2 (parts 1-3) with Intro" by "Frankfurt... I'll have my frankfurter with mustard and sauerkraut, please!
	12:54pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @12:53 As it happens, I was listening to an old James Reese Europe recording, "too much mustard" last night. maybe I can get that in later.
	12:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @12:54 ;- )
	12:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @12:54 (Have a James Reese Europe CD somewhere at home, at work now, will check later. Sounds fun, don't recall the track).
	1:01pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @12:56 Jason Moran did an album of James Reese Europe music www.npr.org...
	1:09pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "The Up and Down Man" by "Albert Mangelsdorff" Love that Manglesdorff polyphonic playing (picked up by other trombonists).
	1:11pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @1:09 as a teenage musician I had heard that multiphonics were theoretically possible but it wasn't until hearing this LP that I realized how they could be used musically.
	1:16pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Marburg" by "Eberhard Weber" All those pretty harmonics (I know how they're done on a guitar, I'd guess it's the same on a bass, maybe a bit harder?)
	1:17pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "The Devil Is Green, Blue, Yellow" by "The Modern ... A bit different sounding than the Modern Jazz Quartet, I'd say...
	1:17pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @1:16 Yes, done the same but without frets it can be harder! (But know that there was some overdubbing later so who knows how much he accomplished in concert)
	1:18pm doctorjazz: (at work, but post-holiday things are slow, able to listen/comment more than usual; I'll leave it to you whether that's a good thing...)
	1:20pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @1:18 I was guessing that you were working on your charting or paperwork or whatever. I'm gonna say that people not needing medical attention is good and not think about all the reasons people might not seek out medical care even if they know they need it
	1:21pm S: I was lucky to see both Weber in Boston and Mangelsdorff solo in Atlanta. Both were amazing !!
	1:22pm DJ Peter: I've never seen Weber in concert: am I right in thinking that he played an upright electric bass in concert? (I wouldn't want to tour with an upright bass myself!)
	1:23pm doctorjazz: ↳ S @1:21 Jealous, never got to see either.
	1:23pm Yvang: ↳ doctorjazz @12:29 I cheated on the show (sorry...) and watched it. I love it! it's greatly covered.
	1:34pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Die Befristeten (Ode to Eleutheria in the form of... "a compositional continuation to my music for the radio play ("The Numbered")... Elias Canetti develops the following idea: the people of a futre time will know exactly how long they have to live.... questions of being and the passing of time...
	1:35pm doctorjazz: ↳ Yvang @1:23 Glad you dug it (Mehldau is playing in NYC, at the 92md St Y, in April, thinking of getting tickets (but planning for April, not my forte.) (they have other interesting jazz shows there as well)
	1:35pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Die Befristeten (Ode to Eleutheria in the form of... "A graphic notation was chosen for the more iprovisational sections, in which the instruments (above all, the double-bass and the piano) were given the choie between certain tone-level circuits and chord structures, whereas the fixed compositional sections were notated in the customary way."
	1:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @1:35 Graphic notation reminds me of the older Braxton albums.
	1:39pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @1:37 Trying to get to NYC this month to see the exhibit of Wadada Leo Smith's paintings/scores
	1:49pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @1:39 Where's that being shown? (getting into NYC is becoming more and more of a pain for me training or driving in from Joisey)
	1:52pm Michael 98145: Hellos, Friends. (Nice station photo)
	1:54pm Michael 98145: Happy Birthday, Isaac Asimov
	1:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Till There Was You" by "Jimmy Giuffre and his Mus... This is nice (figures Giuffre's take on show music would be nice-I often find them just gimmicky. Another I love is Cannonball Adderley's Fiddler on the Roof album, play it often).
	1:57pm DJ Peter: ↳ Michael 98145 @1:54 Happy birthday! And greetings Michael, you should recognize that station!
	1:59pm Michael 98145: ↳ DJ Peter @1:57 Indeed. With a blue sky, no less ...
	2:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Till There Was You" by "Jimmy McPartland's All-St... cool band! Marian McPartland could play anything (used to like her radio show a whole lot).
	2:01pm DJ Peter: ↳ Michael 98145 @1:59 those clouds are pretty low in the sky, though
	2:02pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @2:00 Marian M. was a treasure. I don't know Jimmy M. as well, this is taken from one of the "Condon Mob" boxes from Mosaic.
	2:03pm Michael 98145: ↳ DJ Peter @2:01 Around here, that is a blue sky ... haven't seen one for many weeks.
	2:04pm spodiodi: greetings, DJ Peter and all
	2:04pm DJ Peter: ↳ Michael 98145 @2:03 That's a Summertime photo, as you might have guessed
	2:15pm Michael 98145: great show today
	2:16pm DJ Peter: ↳ Michael 98145 @2:15 This Onzy Matthews is nice, huh?
	2:17pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Blues With a Touch of Elegance" by "Onzy Matthews" It is nice! Not familiar with Onzy (makes me think of the baby clothers Onesy).
	2:19pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @2:17 not just for babies! I saw a grown-ass man at the airport whereing a pink onesy, hitched up to his knees (maybe to keep them from getting wet in the Seattle rain) and crocs. I mean I'm not saying you have to wear a coat and tie on the plane but come on.
	2:19pm Michael 98145: ↳ DJ Peter @2:16 all this set
	2:20pm Michael 98145: most of the kids around here wear what look like pajama bottoms
	2:31pm DJ Peter: ↳ Michael 98145 @2:20 I suppose I should be grateful that I was in no danger of seeing his boxers or... worse...
	2:31pm spodiodi: ↳ spodiodi @2:04 maybe next time... happy new year
	2:33pm DJ Peter: spodiodi! I think you came in while I was making my coffee, sorry I missed you!
	2:33pm Funky16Corners: Hi Peter! Testify! coming up at 3PM ET https://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/147583
	2:34pm DJ Peter: ↳ Funky16Corners @2:33 Lou Donaldson in store, I'm inferring!
	2:38pm doctorjazz: Gotten a bit busier here, will give thanks now, great show, Peter, nice to be able to bug you with comments in real time! Happy New Year!!!
	2:39pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Aromatherapy For Erzulie" by "Ayumi Ishito" Presumably THIS Erzulie? en.wikipedia.org...
	2:39pm Funky16Corners: @DJ Peter - You are correct (among many others)!
	2:42pm Doug Schulkind: Absolutely epic show today, DJ Peter! (So far.)
	2:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ Doug Schulkind @2:42 I'll try to stick the landing, coach!

The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from January 2, 2025

View DJ Peter's profile

Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

	12:30pm coelacanth∅: i hope David's okay (but for maybe nursing a wicked hangover)
	12:32pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "Train" by "Bill Frisell" i missed this piece today but coincidentally watched a short Buster Keaton documentary last night. (about his stunts)
	12:33pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:28 Greets, coel!
	12:34pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Arirang" by "US Air Force Airmen of Note" Pretty good band for enlistees...
	12:35pm DJ Peter: pot8o: humble but loved everywhere! (referring to both potatoes generally and pot8o specifically) Welcome coelacanthø!
	12:37pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:33 Aloha Andrew!
	12:53pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Invention 2 (parts 1-3) with Intro" by "Frankfurt... I'll have my frankfurter with mustard and sauerkraut, please!
	12:54pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @12:53 As it happens, I was listening to an old James Reese Europe recording, "too much mustard" last night. maybe I can get that in later.
	12:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @12:54 ;- )
	12:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @12:54 (Have a James Reese Europe CD somewhere at home, at work now, will check later. Sounds fun, don't recall the track).
	1:01pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @12:56 Jason Moran did an album of James Reese Europe music www.npr.org...
	1:09pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "The Up and Down Man" by "Albert Mangelsdorff" Love that Manglesdorff polyphonic playing (picked up by other trombonists).
	1:11pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @1:09 as a teenage musician I had heard that multiphonics were theoretically possible but it wasn't until hearing this LP that I realized how they could be used musically.
	1:16pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Marburg" by "Eberhard Weber" All those pretty harmonics (I know how they're done on a guitar, I'd guess it's the same on a bass, maybe a bit harder?)
	1:17pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "The Devil Is Green, Blue, Yellow" by "The Modern ... A bit different sounding than the Modern Jazz Quartet, I'd say...
	1:17pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @1:16 Yes, done the same but without frets it can be harder! (But know that there was some overdubbing later so who knows how much he accomplished in concert)
	1:18pm doctorjazz: (at work, but post-holiday things are slow, able to listen/comment more than usual; I'll leave it to you whether that's a good thing...)
	1:20pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @1:18 I was guessing that you were working on your charting or paperwork or whatever. I'm gonna say that people not needing medical attention is good and not think about all the reasons people might not seek out medical care even if they know they need it
	1:21pm S: I was lucky to see both Weber in Boston and Mangelsdorff solo in Atlanta. Both were amazing !!
	1:22pm DJ Peter: I've never seen Weber in concert: am I right in thinking that he played an upright electric bass in concert? (I wouldn't want to tour with an upright bass myself!)
	1:23pm doctorjazz: ↳ S @1:21 Jealous, never got to see either.
	1:23pm Yvang: ↳ doctorjazz @12:29 I cheated on the show (sorry...) and watched it. I love it! it's greatly covered.
	1:34pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Die Befristeten (Ode to Eleutheria in the form of... "a compositional continuation to my music for the radio play ("The Numbered")... Elias Canetti develops the following idea: the people of a futre time will know exactly how long they have to live.... questions of being and the passing of time...
	1:35pm doctorjazz: ↳ Yvang @1:23 Glad you dug it (Mehldau is playing in NYC, at the 92md St Y, in April, thinking of getting tickets (but planning for April, not my forte.) (they have other interesting jazz shows there as well)
	1:35pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Die Befristeten (Ode to Eleutheria in the form of... "A graphic notation was chosen for the more iprovisational sections, in which the instruments (above all, the double-bass and the piano) were given the choie between certain tone-level circuits and chord structures, whereas the fixed compositional sections were notated in the customary way."
	1:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @1:35 Graphic notation reminds me of the older Braxton albums.
	1:39pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @1:37 Trying to get to NYC this month to see the exhibit of Wadada Leo Smith's paintings/scores
	1:49pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @1:39 Where's that being shown? (getting into NYC is becoming more and more of a pain for me training or driving in from Joisey)
	1:52pm Michael 98145: Hellos, Friends. (Nice station photo)
	1:54pm Michael 98145: Happy Birthday, Isaac Asimov
	1:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Till There Was You" by "Jimmy Giuffre and his Mus... This is nice (figures Giuffre's take on show music would be nice-I often find them just gimmicky. Another I love is Cannonball Adderley's Fiddler on the Roof album, play it often).
	1:57pm DJ Peter: ↳ Michael 98145 @1:54 Happy birthday! And greetings Michael, you should recognize that station!
	1:59pm Michael 98145: ↳ DJ Peter @1:57 Indeed. With a blue sky, no less ...
	2:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Till There Was You" by "Jimmy McPartland's All-St... cool band! Marian McPartland could play anything (used to like her radio show a whole lot).
	2:01pm DJ Peter: ↳ Michael 98145 @1:59 those clouds are pretty low in the sky, though
	2:02pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @2:00 Marian M. was a treasure. I don't know Jimmy M. as well, this is taken from one of the "Condon Mob" boxes from Mosaic.
	2:03pm Michael 98145: ↳ DJ Peter @2:01 Around here, that is a blue sky ... haven't seen one for many weeks.
	2:04pm spodiodi: greetings, DJ Peter and all
	2:04pm DJ Peter: ↳ Michael 98145 @2:03 That's a Summertime photo, as you might have guessed
	2:15pm Michael 98145: great show today
	2:16pm DJ Peter: ↳ Michael 98145 @2:15 This Onzy Matthews is nice, huh?
	2:17pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Blues With a Touch of Elegance" by "Onzy Matthews" It is nice! Not familiar with Onzy (makes me think of the baby clothers Onesy).
	2:19pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @2:17 not just for babies! I saw a grown-ass man at the airport whereing a pink onesy, hitched up to his knees (maybe to keep them from getting wet in the Seattle rain) and crocs. I mean I'm not saying you have to wear a coat and tie on the plane but come on.
	2:19pm Michael 98145: ↳ DJ Peter @2:16 all this set
	2:20pm Michael 98145: most of the kids around here wear what look like pajama bottoms
	2:31pm DJ Peter: ↳ Michael 98145 @2:20 I suppose I should be grateful that I was in no danger of seeing his boxers or... worse...
	2:31pm spodiodi: ↳ spodiodi @2:04 maybe next time... happy new year
	2:33pm DJ Peter: spodiodi! I think you came in while I was making my coffee, sorry I missed you!
