Raining again here, too. Means I can't rake up the backyard leaves from last fall for a 974th consecutive day.
  9:00am Mr C:

What's easy to do for two/is so hard to be done by one. Monica and Doug, two titans, take it to the stage at the same time!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:01am Doug Schulkind:

Y'all should go enjoy Monica over on WFMU, but come back at 11am (ET) for Part 2 of the Coltrane documentary!

Oh yeah - now I don't have to do push ups!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:44am Webhamster Henry:

BTW my band is doing a show tomorrow with Andes Manta, four Ecuadorian brothers.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:45am Webhamster Henry:

But they are less volatile than these guys.
  9:45am Alex in Illinois:

This is a greeting? For a while, it sounded like they were trying to see who can do the most push ups or sit ups.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:45am Doug Schulkind:

My best friend in early elementary school was a kid from Ecuador.

We're doing a few tunes in Quechua.

@Alex
Maybe they are greeting each other in a Planet Fitness?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:47am Doug Schulkind:

Because of course you are, Webhamster Henry!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:48am Uncle Michael:

I hope this is the extended mix of En tu Duc Es Pensament.

This is the club mix, Uncle Michael.

Awesome.

According to Google Translate, this song title is...

"En tu Duc Es Pensament"

Next two songs from Tonga had me weeping the other night. Just kept listening to them over and over and over. So gorgeous.

Insipid title, I agree, Brian in UK.

Maybe those people thought it might steal their souls in the same way years ago it was thought that when you had your photograph taken the same would happen.

Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:25am Jeff Golick:

Belatedly: that New Music New York 1979 record is sort of a magical document.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:26am Doug Schulkind:

Brilliant New Orleans drummer James Black is on this Yusef record. Stroke of genius to include his strokes of genius.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:27am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff Golick
It's a touchstone. A lodestar. A benchmark.

Just in time, JtotheK!

Was she not the ONLY lady of Immediate?
Avatar 10:58am northguineahills:

@βrian: I have an empty set ( ∅ ) (Mika Vaino solo project) record. It sounded like minimal electronic bleeps w/ occasional rhythmic clicks.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:00am doctorjazz:

Out of town, have a few minutes to listen and check in, hiya drummers!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:01am Doug Schulkind:

You are all in for a treat.

I heard last week's, but I was on the road. It's been 10 years since I first heard this series.

(damn crappy hotel Wi-Fi...)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:03am Doug Schulkind:

It's been 10 years for everyone, northguineahills. I did air individual episodes a few times over the years.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:06am Doug Schulkind:

Zita Carno, speaking here, is also a well-loved BASEBALL historian!!

Zita was the pianist with the L.A. Philharmonic for two decades.

This is deep knowledge explained beautifully.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:14am doctorjazz:

This is a fabulous demo tonality and modality...

You don't have to "know," just hear.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:18am Doug Schulkind:

Giant Steps is math and science.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:19am Uncle Michael:

Metronome can kiss my ass.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:19am Brian in UK:

Are Giant Steps and Coltrane Jazz twins.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:20am doctorjazz:

What a bad review, wow! Wouldn't want to be that reviewer later...
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:20am duke:

Whoever wrote that Metronome review should have their reviwer's license revoked.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:22am Doug Schulkind:

Coltrane Jazz came after the Giant Steps deep investigations period. Coltrane Jazz begins the period of expressionism.

That Metronome reviewer can be forgiven. There is no way he or she could have any real understanding of what exactly was going on during Trane's Giant Steps solo.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:25am Doug Schulkind:

Andrew White here is the greatest Coltrane historian in terms of the music. He was a member of the JFK Quintet in the early '60s in Washington, DC. So him perform many times during my young adulthood in the D.C. area. What a brilliant man.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:26am Doug Schulkind:

Strap on your seat belts, folks.

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:43am Doug Schulkind:

The solo IS the composition.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:43am Brian in UK:

The feeling I get is that even religion was not high enough for John Coltrane.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:45am Doug Schulkind:

Trane's disappointment with religion's insufficiency and inconsistency —suggests you are onto something, Brian in UK.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:49am Brian in UK:

It is difficult to take someone elses own intensity to one's own interior; it is so demanding.
