7:58am Doug Schulkind:

You're always so outgoing, Uncle Mike!

8:30am guy mauve:

Good morning Professor Doug,

Season`s greetings and multiple positive feels.

Please join me and celebrate with my friends from the Edinburgh Zoo

www.edinburghzoo.org.uk...

8:31am Doug Schulkind:

Live Penguin Cam! Thanks, guy mauve!

🥁

8:42am Brian in UK:

Still trying to drum up interest in the show Mr DJ?

8:49am Doug Schulkind:

I am nothing if not an incessant self-marketer (cough cough), Brian in UK.

🥁

8:50am doctorjazz:

Hey, early for the Drum circle.
Happy Holidays, all!
How's dad doing, Doug?

8:51am Doug Schulkind:

He's doing okay, doc. Thanks for asking!

🥁

8:59am Brian in UK:

Hey Doug, guess what Santa brought me for Christmas. Shingles. Yipee. Promise not to do anything rash.

8:59am Alex In Illinois:

That animated gif is Hilarius! I love it!

9:01am annie:

i love that GIF.

9:01am ndbob:

morning Doug and everyone!

9:01am Doug Schulkind:

I live to spread love, Alex and annie!

9:02am Listener Robert:

Aw, too bad Brian. I hope your pain tx doesn't get you too drowsy to enjoy the show & anything else.

9:02am annie:

how is you dad, doug?

9:02am Doug Schulkind:

Top o' the morning, ndbob!

🥁

9:04am Brian in UK:

Thanks LR, got the Lite version, well I am being tough and manly about. You know how it is. Got these horse pill antibiotics.

9:04am Scraps:

h'lo hi

🥁

9:05am listener james from westwood:

Morning Doug and all! I've a feeling we'll come to envy those wise men.

🥁

9:05am Brian in UK:

Might have an early medicinal beer.

🥁

9:06am doctorjazz:

Medicinal Beer sounds perfect for whatever ails ya!

9:09am Listener Robert:

I was just thinking a few mins. ago about how I feel a little thrill sometimes when I hear where a show is coming from. I react that way to the anmt of Squirrel Hill because I was familiar w it as a child. I reacted that way to Art Bell's anmt, "From Manila in the Philippines" because it sounded exotic & other reasons. And I reacted that way to the up-front billing of the unspellable Welsh location of the resort on the final episode of "The Prisoner".

9:09am Doug Schulkind:

Glad you're here, Scraps! Gladd you're here, Listener James. Glad we're all here, while we still are.

9:10am Doug Schulkind:

Maybe next week I will deliver my mic breaks in Welsh, Listener Robert!

🥁

9:10am doctorjazz:

Loving this opening, Great Gould almighty!

🥁

9:10am Brian in UK:

LR do you mean Portmeirion?

9:11am Scraps:

Hey, I'm in pain too, Brian! [slaps hands] My doctor tried to get me on another pain med, but my insurance co doesn't cover it. Meanwhile, my doctor took me off my old med. whee! Yeah.

🥁

9:12am Artie Haywire:

Good morning, all! So glad to be here.

9:13am Shaun:

Also loving this tune. Bigups Doug, Brian et al.

9:13am Doug Schulkind:

Sorry about all the pain out there. Trying to provide a little distraction. Apply the music topically.

Greetings, old friend Artie H!

🥁

9:13am Brian in UK:

Scraps tough one especially if it is long term.

🥁

9:14am Brian in UK:

Shaun where's you bean?

9:14am Doug Schulkind:

Ahoy, Shaun. Welcome aboard!

9:14am Listener Robert:

Speaking of Morton Gould, a few yrs. ago at a performance by the trio Knotwork of an original tune of theirs, I noticed the similarity to I'd heard 50 yrs. earlier. They said they were unfamiliar with it:

www.youtube.com...
vs.
www.youtube.com...

9:15am Flash Strap:

Good morning doug and drummers! I like what's going on here

🥁

9:15am Brian in UK:

Love that term 'at the piano'. How about 'before the piano'.

9:15am Listener Robert:

Yes, Portmeirion. But I think it also said its location. Or maybe I just expect Welsh to be unspellable!

9:16am Doug Schulkind:

Wow wow wow, Flash Strap's up oily!

9:16am Scraps:

@Brian, yeah, it's permanent (since the stroke, 8 years ago). Sigh. My doctor should know better.

Music is a balm.

9:16am Shaun:

Ain't bean to Boston, Brian. Schedule changed and I mostly listen on TuneIn arrt and abaat.

🥁

9:17am Brian in UK:

My wife's first language was Welsh when she was growing up. So if Doug needs any help next week....

9:17am Ramblin' Ray:

Happy festive shenanigans y'all! Loving this pianoman's bounce.

9:18am Doug Schulkind:

Ramblin' in to your ears and living rooms! G'day, Ramblin' Ray!

9:18am Shaun:

Sous les pavanne, la plage.

🥁

9:18am Brian in UK:

Scraps do you get to do any Physio?

9:19am Listener Robert:

When I had shingles a few yrs. ago, I went on tramadol for a mo. Just got me drowsy, not high like Field Marshal Ken reports -- but then, I'm square. But getting OFF it was a "trip" for me. Doc said I shouldn't've discontinued it abruptly like that. Still, withdrawal from it wasn't unpleasant the way it'd been for my friend Nadine -- just weird.

9:19am Scraps:

Minnie the Moocher is Dead! I've never heard that one

9:19am Doug Schulkind:

This tune has a rather fascinating connection to John Coltrane that I learned of whilst Googling last night. Will share on air in a few...

9:20am Listener Robert:

What's that about a whistling coal train last night?

9:21am annie:

as a reminder, and not to detract from FMU's line-up, BUT the Bach Festival starts today on kcr. in my experience, though, you can wait a day and still hear the whole "playlist"

9:21am Scraps:

@Brian, I should. But mostly I don't.

9:21am Listener Robert:

Maybe I should turn up the "sound" volume of the comments.

🥁

9:21am Brian in UK:

LR that's a bit strong. Tramadol can be very trippy. Some patients get the insects climbing the walls effect.

9:22am Doug Schulkind:

@annie
The Bach festival is an annual fixture in our house every Xmas!

9:24am Doug Schulkind:

The tenor saxist here is Herbert Morgan. Not sure I have heard him elsewhere. Anyone familiar with him?

🥁

9:25am Brian in UK:

Best gig last year was St Peters church in Vienna. Free concert in the afternoon. Baroque overkill interior, lovely organ. Closed with Toccata & Fugue by JSB. Sublime.

9:27am Doug Schulkind:

The trumpeter here is Eddie Gale, of "Black Rhythm Happening" fame.

9:28am annie:

doug, i admit, i keep th radio tuned almost 24-7 for it. all that math just jacks me up! @BiUK: i admit i love the archaic stuff, no matter how riddled with indoctrination. i loved visiting the catholic churches my friends attended when i was young. latin was still used, too..ah, me!

9:29am glenn:

hello, usual crappers.

9:29am Doug Schulkind:

It's the unusual crappers you have to watch out for, glenn.

9:30am Scraps:

Other than playing with Larry Young, Herbert Morgan was mostly known for playing with New York latin jazz/funk band Ocho in the 70s. (Didn't know him, I looked it up.)

9:31am duke:

really like this Larry Young track

9:31am glenn:

i miss art bell. there just isn't enough cray cray on a.m. radio these days.

🥁

9:33am Brian in UK:

annie, also like William Byrd's Masses in Three and Four Parts.

9:33am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Robert
My wife and I stayed at a Bed & Breakfast in deeply rural Pennsylvania the past few days. It was about 50 feet from a near-constantly used CSX rail line. Half-mile freight trains rumbling/screeching past us every hour or more. It was kinda cool, actually. No toxic-spill evacuations was nice, though.

9:34am Doug Schulkind:

Hey, I resemble that remark, glenn.

9:35am Doug Schulkind:

Hiya, duke!

🥁

9:35am βrian:

Any Thomas Tallis on tap for today?

9:36am annie:

today, i'm going to find out if there is a collection of all martin gardner's puzzles fromSAmerican.

9:36am Scraps:

Ah, here we go. From Eugene Chadbourne at Allmusic:

While only a few jazz listeners seem to be aware of this talented individual, there is a choice of three names to have not heard of him by: Herbie Morgan, Herbert Morgan, and Rahman Herbie Morgan. His loyalty to the city of Newark is most likely what has kept him out of the international jazz limelight, although at the same time proximity to New York City has meant Morgan's meaningful music has upon occasion been heard by the right audience at the right time. If a player's talents are to be judged by the people who seek him out, then Morgan rates highly indeed, playing on some of organist Larry Young's marvelous albums in the '60s and rousing spirits in the new millennium alongside jazz poet Amiri Baraka.

It is in the former context that the adventurous jazz fan most likely hears the big sound of Morgan's tenor. Young's short career and smallish discography were packed with incendiary music, an example of jazz fusion at its best and the type of playing that arouses intense curiosity about every name listed in the liner notes. In the '70s Morgan spent some time in the horn section of the Latin jazz group Ocho. At the 2004 Vision Festival in New York City, Morgan performed as part of a Baraka ensemble project called Blue Ark: the Wordship. Other members included the superb percussionist Pheeroan akLaff and pianist Vijay Iyer.

9:37am Scraps:

Whoops, sorry about that

9:38am Scraps:

Didn't know that was so long

🥁

9:40am doctorjazz:

That pretty much covers anything I wanted to know about Herbie Morgan (and I love that it was provided by Eugene Chadbourne, I'm guessing that's the guitar player...)

🥁

9:41am βrian:

The bride coming down the aisle, or Eye-gore schlepping along the platform?

9:42am glenn:

or frau blucher.

9:42am glenn:

neeeeeiiigggghhhh!

🥁

9:43am βrian:

"Be careful, the aisle *can* be treacherous."

9:43am annie:

i saw what you did there, glenn

9:44am Uncle Michael:

my pleasure to help out

9:44am glenn:

i knew somebody would.

9:45am Scraps:

annie:

www.amazon.com...

My Best Mathematical and Logic Puzzles by Martin Gardner

$5 paperback!

9:46am Jeff Golick:

Hey, can I get a ride in your pavanne?

9:46am still b/p:

Good morning.
Journeys...I tumblr-stumbled upon a collection called redhotshellac yesterday. Looks like a big ol' jug of journeys to take a pull on.

9:47am Doug Schulkind:

Here is the link to that Pavanne/Impressions connection:
www.wbgo.org...

GLAD to see you, still b/p and Jeff Golick!

9:48am annie:

scraps!! cool, thanks.. we ate those up like candy. i played a boardgame this last week called Blockus, which used the shapes from on of his chess-board games.

🥁

9:48am listener james from westwood:

three cheers for tech guru Jeff M!

9:51am Doug Schulkind:

I have cried on Jeff Moore's shoulders too many times to count. I should pay his dry cleaning bill, at the very least.

9:51am Scraps:

There's a lot of collections of Gardner's puzzles, though none of them says taken from specifically Scientific American....

9:53am Scraps:

I remember Blockus!

9:53am Jeff Golick:

The Gardner collection linked to above is published by my current co., Dover. I can check the provenance of the puzzles, if you like.

9:54am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff Golick
Are there any white guys named Cliff at Dover?

9:54am melinda:

morning listeners

9:55am Doug Schulkind:

melorninga!

9:55am Jeff Golick:

@Doug: unfortunately, no. Nor anyone named Della Ware.

9:57am annie:

no, it's fine, i like Dover, so any puzzle is good.the blurb says some are new and some are updated. i'm satisfied. there is one puzzle impossible to solve: the three houses with the three separate paths to 3 individual wells..

10:00am Scraps:

I should have read closer. The one I linked to is taken from SA. Yay

10:02am annie:

i mentiond it because today's Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal is all about the puzzles.

10:06am Scraps:

But it's Friday!

10:06am Jason Elbogen:

This CK song is nice...[Hey Everyone!]

10:07am annie:

GM jason!

10:07am Doug Schulkind:

Yay, it's Jason E!

10:08am Jason Elbogen:

Hey... My baby's dancing to this! (really)

10:15am Jason Elbogen:

Doug--thanks for that 'Jay's Elbow room link/pic you sent last week! You just come across that randomly?

10:16am Doug Schulkind:

Every drummer loves to hear — and I should have said him or herself. Sorry about my gender insensitivity.

@Jason E
I came across it semi-randomly. I can't remember exactly what I was searching for!

10:16am annie:

@Jeff: www.puzzles.com...

10:17am Jeff Golick:

Susie Ibarra is comin' for you, @Doug.

10:17am mauri:

drum them drums drummaboy!

10:18am Jeff Golick:

Puzzles.com! Naturally. Thanks, @annie.

🥁

10:18am βrian:

So I've always wondered: Some what?

10:19am annie:

diggin' the drummin'

10:19am fred:

Hello Doug and listeners
@Doug: Ever heard of Tom Tom magazine?

10:22am Doug Schulkind:

@jeff Golick
Susie Ibarra got left on the cutting room floor for this sequence. So, yeah, she is coming for me.

Hallo, fred! I am not familiar with Tom Tom. I gather I should be?!

@βrian
Some time in the spotlight, according to Maestro James Brown.

@mauri
Welcome welcome!

10:23am Jeff Golick:

A drummer to watch? Allison Miller. You know her stuff, @Doug?

10:25am Doug Schulkind:

No, Jeff Golick. But I now have a "need to know."

10:26am Doug Schulkind:

Ben Webster on tenor here. Charlie Shavers on trumpet.

10:26am fred:

@Doug: Their site says "the only magazine in the world dedicated to female drummers". I heard about them through their connection with the Willie Mae rock camp for girls

10:26am Flash Strap:

I love this!

10:28am Doug Schulkind:

You'd better love it, Flash Strap it lasts 12 minutes.

@fred
Oh wow. I am a lover of women. A lover of drummers. And you can put two and two together.

🥁

10:29am βrian:

@Doug: Ah, I see. Forgive my subliminal prurience.

10:29am Scraps:

My absolute favorite rock drummer is Janet Weiss (Quasi, Sleater-Kinney)

10:30am Flash Strap:

I meant I love Krupa's take on Jungle Drums, but I love this dozen minutos de OPJ too

10:30am Doug Schulkind:

This drummer, Odie Payne, was famously the drummer on a ton of essential Chicago blues performances. Also played with Chuck Berry and other "early rockers." In other words, a very important cat!

@Scraps
Another drummer Weiss will appear later in this sequence.

10:32am Jeff Golick:

@Scraps: Janet Weiss is a god(ess).

10:32am Doug Schulkind:

Ah yes, Jungle Drums is right in your wheelhouse, Professor Strap!

10:33am melinda:

Zutty Singleton is a good name. As good as Bunty Pendleton.

10:33am Jeff Golick:

Drummers do have good names, it seems. Also thinking of Ziggy Modeliste.

10:34am Scraps:

@Doug, do you know Amy Rigby's song "Tonight I'm Gonna Give the Drummer Some"?

10:34am Doug Schulkind:

@melinda
His mother called him Arthur James Singleton.

10:36am Doug Schulkind:

@Scraps
I do indeed. A little bird once told me that this program was in part an inspiration for the title. That, and she was once married to a drummer.

10:36am Dean:

A resource devoted to female drummers should be called

x x

You know, cymablic.

10:37am Doug Schulkind:

Take some more chromoseltzer, Dean.

10:37am Scraps:

Excellent! I love that song (and Rigby)

10:37am still b/p:

Album covers + drums + women, however, didn't always work out for the best through the decades. Some laughs but some cringe-inducers there.

10:38am Doug Schulkind:

I am already blushing at the female drummer resource titled XXX.

🥁

10:41am βrian:

Doug, you are unwittingly co-hosting my experiment underway — a version of Indian rice pudding, using wild rice.

10:42am Dean:

Argh. *cymbalic

10:43am Scraps:

I wish I had Sam Ulano reading stories to me when I was a child

10:44am Jeff Golick:

Found this re Ulano: "He once held the Guinness record for the longest drum solo (sixty-seven hours)." Can that possibly be true?

10:46am Dean:

It's the "once held" that's kinda scary. Somebody exceeded 67 hours?

10:46am ndbob:

excellent show Doug - have to run out and do a few things - back for the end of your show or UM

10:49am Doug Schulkind:

@βrian
Wild!

@ndbob
Always great to hang with, Sir!

10:49am Dean:

Any chance we'll hear Bev Bevan's Sandy Nelson tribute? Closest GTDS will get to playing ELO, I figure.

10:53am Doug Schulkind:

@Dean
The second I recognize a personal bias, I will demolish it. But no. No ELO. For now.

10:59am Dean:

OMG, Guiness record for solo drumming is now 133 hours, 3 minutes, so says the internetthing.

11:00am Jeff Golick:

Jebus, @Dean. I would only want to hear the last five minutes, I think.

A propos of nothing: The 1980s were a really bad time for drum sound.

11:01am Doug Schulkind:

Here is Robin Russell, your drummer with the Nite-Liters: en.wikipedia.org...

11:02am Doug Schulkind:

A drummer soloing for 133 hours, 3 minutes better be sitting on a porcelain throne.

11:03am Jeff Golick:

The band must've been kinda pissed about that solo, too.

11:04am Dean:

Of course there is a dispute as to who *really* set the record. A Boo McAfee claims he did 738 hours in '81. I suppose I could claim having started a solo in '65, diddled a bit throughout the '70s...

11:06am Listener Robert:

Batman, Batman, Batman.

11:07am Alex In Illinois:

Reminds me of that joke about the guy who goes to some country in Africa, and hears constant drumming everywhere. Whenever he asks anyone, they reply: "When the drums stop, it;s very very bad."

So finally the drums stop, and he asks: "What's going to happen now?", and someone cringing says: "Bass solo!".

11:08am Doug Schulkind:

Is there any doubt that this is Hal Blaine on drums?

11:09am still b/p:

I thought it was Alice.

11:10am Doug Schulkind:

Alice in Drummerland.

11:10am Dean:

Good one, @Alex in IL!

11:12am Parq:

I confess, I turned off the feed until the Bradys were done. I know, I'm a sorehead. Get off my lawn.

11:12am Artie Haywire:

Love this!!

11:12am Parq:

Oh, but this drumming auction one!

11:12am Dean:

This 35th St. tune reminds me that I heard Steven Schick perform "Born to Be Wild" live on solo drums.

🥁

11:13am listener james from westwood:

Yes! The auctioneer-drummer duo!

11:13am still b/p:

"Soon her eye fell on a little glass box that was lying under the table: she opened it, and found in it a very small drum, on which the words `BEAT ME' were beautifully marked..."

🥁

11:13am listener james from westwood:

Give the drummer sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-five-seventy-seventy-sev-en-ty—

11:14am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener James from Westwood
If I don't play that drummer/auctioneer track at least once a year, I should have my license revoked.

11:15am Doug Schulkind:

Next up is certainly one of the tracks that could be considered a Give the Drummer Some "greatest hit."

My treat to you, dear listeners.

11:15am Jeff Golick:

@Doug: I believe Dan Weiss's latest album uses several different drum parts by masters (e.g., Elvin, Klook) as the basis for new compositions.

🥁

11:15am listener james from westwood:

WFMU DJs have played cuts from at least one record of auctioneers, prob. an ethnographic collection, and one of the callers suddenly weaves a jody call into his patter. It's so good.

11:16am melinda:

Good joke, Alex.

11:16am Doug Schulkind:

@still b/p
That sounds naughty.

11:16am Doug Schulkind:

DJ Monica has played a buncha auctioneer tracks over the years.

11:17am melinda:

What's a jody call?

11:17am Alex In Illinois:

I am so glad this show is being archived. This set amazing. Not many people could put together such an enjoyable set of drum oriented numbers as this.

11:17am melinda:

I recall hearing a singing auctioneer but I don't remember whose show it was on.

🥁

11:21am listener james from westwood:

@melinda: Shorthand for a military cadence, sung while troops are jogging or marching. Evidently a character named Jody appeared in enough of these that they became known as Jody calls.

11:22am melinda:

Thanks ljw.

11:23am Doug Schulkind:

Mind Train = love

11:23am Shaun:

YAAAAAASSS

11:24am melinda:

This is great.

11:24am Shaun:

I mark the days Doug plays Mind Train more than I mark my birthdays now.

11:25am Ike:

Sorry to hear that Carol and Scott M. are not coming over to GtDR as well. (I already knew John Allen wasn't. He made that clear.) Hopefully they will turn up elsewhere. Carol's show is especially great.

11:27am Doug Schulkind:

Happy Mind Train Day, Shaun!

@Ike
Carol was going to come over to the Stream, but she ended up taking over another slot on WFMU that opened up. At least I think that is the story. Scott McDowell may yet end up on the Stream. Things may possibly happen "down the road."

11:27am Jeff Golick:

So good. This was released as a single, I see: "'Mind Train' (Edit)/'Listen, The Snow Is Falling' (7") (Did not chart)"

11:28am Shaun:

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

11:28am northguineahills:

Yeah, it's been less then six months since the last time I've heard Mind Train here....

11:28am Doug Schulkind:

Whoever puts a razor blade to the full-length version of Mind Train gets booted from the Drummer Train.

🥁

11:28am Brian in UK:

Daughter 1A just arrived so will say early goodbye. Best to everyone on the Stream.

11:29am Jeff Golick:

Bye, @Brian. Happy Christmas to you.

11:29am Shaun:

Kicked from the caboose of this loco...

11:30am Shaun:

Happy Christmas Brian and

11:30am Jeff Golick:

Single looks kinda cool, tho: www.discogs.com...

11:30am ♥ Ike♥:

@Doug, oh, great, good to know, thanks! I presume Carol must be fulfilling her show-title destiny and programming by moonlight in the old Stashu timeslot.

11:31am Doug Schulkind:

You know those "There have been no injuries for [x] days" signs on the factory floor?

We have a "There has been no playing of Mind Train for [x] days" sign here at Drummer Some HQ.

11:34am Doug Schulkind:

@Shaun
Are you saying Yoko had loco motives in recording this?

11:35am Jeff Golick:

They keep writing over the "No national disgrace in X days" sign.

🥁

11:35am listener james from westwood:

Good to hear Carol's gonna still be on the station; I dig her show. Sad to temporarily lose Scott McD. Very curious about what's to come in the mornings.

🥁

11:36am listener james from westwood:

If it's gonna be a single host, they have a daunting fundraising task ahead of them. But no doubt they'll have MCs during their 10 shifts during that period.

11:36am Alex In Illinois:

I remember a rally in DC, where John Stewart had Peace Train played, then Steve Cobert has Crazy Train, and then they played Love Train.

11:37am Doug Schulkind:

Someday. Maybe not tomorrow, maybe not the day after, but someday I am going to do a 24-hour special of nothing but Mind Train.

Don't you think that would be responsible thing to do?

11:37am Shaun:

Doug, it's only on Apple because John had the pull, man.

11:37am Dean:

Ringo Starr used to narrate episodes of Thomas the Tank Engine. Somehow, that seems relevant.

11:39am Doug Schulkind:

No one yet has any idea what will be the new M-F morning show on WFMU. Well I suppose SOMEONE has an idea.

11:39am northguineahills:

@Doug: only if followed in the next 24 hours of all the versions of Cage's 4'33" mixed together w/ Merzbow's Greatest Hits.

11:40am ndbob:

and back

11:40am Alex In Illinois:

Hmm, Peace Train, Mind Train, Love Train, Crazy Train, Zion Train, Night Train, Mystery Train any more?

11:42am ⓘⓚⓔ:

Someone made a cruel and gruesome joke the other day that it would be Night People five mornings a week! EEP.

11:43am Doug Schulkind:

@northguineahills
I like the way you think, Sir.

11:45am annie:

wb ndb!

11:45am Doug Schulkind:

You can surely bet that not everyone will be happy with whoever takes over the M-F morning slot. There is simply no way to please everyone. But it must be said that if there is one person on the planet with the taste, instincts and vision to make the choice, it is Ken Freedman.

11:46am Dean:

Maybe I'm just sensitive, but why do you keep referring to the motherfucking morning slot?

11:47am Mr C:

The Drummer is my shining star. Late check in. Sorry to have missed Pavanne set.

11:48am Sue P.:

@Dean - there's a lot of inside baseball re: the Morning Slot. It's boring but important. A policy issue, if you will.

11:49am Dean:

@Sue P. I thought I was being "clever" translating M-F as motherfucking. Not so.

11:49am Mr C:

Soulful Drums was ending theme for DJ Eddie OJay on WLIB am.
On a need to know basis..

11:50am Uncle Michael:

Terry Reid should have taken that one job.

11:50am Doug Schulkind:

I will give you a private showing, Mr C!

@Dean
You are absolutely right. Sorry to be so East Coast-centric. My apologies.

Howdy, Sue P!

11:50am Doug Schulkind:

@Uncle Michael
Terry Reid and Mike Cooper could have been in all the bands ever.

11:51am Sue P.:

@Dean or perhaps I am humorless.

@Sue P. No, I am context-oblivious.

11:53am listener james from westwood:

I would not say no to 15 hours of Solid Gold Hell/week, but that might slightly tire out its fine host!

Happy Holidays! Thanks for the great music!

12:09pm Doug Schulkind:

My sublime pleasure, doctorjazz!

10:06am Belated Listener Gregory:

Thanks for spelling out the connection between Gould's Pavane and Impressions, Doug, because I knew the theme sounded familiar, and it was driving me crazy that I couldn't figure it out.
First you caused my anxiety, but then you relieved it.

12:01pm Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory
Dr. Lewis Porter gets all the credit for connecting Ahmad Jamal's "Pavanne" and Coltrane's "Impressions." I just stumbled on his discovery.

12:01pm Belated Listener Gregory:

The show is always good, but sometimes at the end, I ask myself, "Did we really give the drummer any?" Well, today I can answer the question with a resounding "YES." Great percussioning, Doug.
