Then I hear who it is. Yay, MUSIC.
Frank, come back, do a regular show where, like in the olden days, the DJ weaves an ambiance by simply playing some of the terrific things that have been recorded over the last hundred or so years. So many great sounds, so little time. So refreshing to hear the disc jockey whipping that musical horse. Thank you Frank O'Toole!![]()
2:26pm :
I saw the MVO over and over again, up to an including the first tour they did without the original line-up. On that tour, they were double-headlining with -- ta da! -- the Jeff Beck Group.![]()
2:26pm : I interview Hammer on WHUS and then years later on WCCC, way cool guy...first saw him with MO and later solo at the Shaboo Inn in Willimantic CT late 1970s. Amazing times! Now I DDJ on WWUH in Hartford and play lotsa this stuff...and I've been a huge fan of WFMU...if I lived in NJ I'd voilunteer!![]()
2:26pm : jazz fusion on wfmu - awesome![]()
2:27pm : Frank is kicking asse! Streaming this at work in Ellington, CT![]()
2:31pm :
Been sitting here thinking about why the MVO holds up so well when a lot of jazz fusion from the 70s, uh, doesn't. Got to be the sheer intensity of it.![]()
2:35pm : I met and interviewed all of the original MO guys at one time or another for WHUS, WCCC, and WBAB, and the thing that struck me was that they were all happy, friendly, peaceful and serene type cats...and not druggies like too many other intense musicians2:37pm : WOW!
