	🕰 ♥ 7:19pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "The Sweet Time Suite, Part II—For H, Part III—For... This is a real Who's Who of (mostly) British jazz. I wonder how Abercrombie got involved in this.
	♥ 7:19pm Rich in Washington: Greetings, Peter! Tooned in!
	♥ 7:20pm DJ Peter: Hi Doc! Welcome in! Rich in Washington, what's the temperature there?
	🕰 ♥ 7:20pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @7:08 Ethan Iverson is appearing at The Village Vanguard at the end of January-seen him once (under his own name, a few times witjh The Bad Plus), thinking it's be nice to catch him again. (Kris Davis is also having a run there-it's piano month at The Vanguard)
	🕰 ♥ 7:23pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Presto" by "Kenny Wheeler and Paul Bley" This is cool!
	♥ 7:24pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:20 Iverson has another record coming out (trio I think)
	🕰 ♥ 7:26pm doctorjazz: Just came back from a family event, a 1 year old birthday party inPerkasie, Pa (I'd never heard of it either-had to drive multiple windy country roads, some of which were shut on the return trip. The trip there qas 1.2 hours, home almost an hour longer because of all the detouring...
	♥ 7:28pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:26 Haven't heard of Perkasie either but let's think of some music-related puns and send them to Moppa Elliott of Mostly Other People Do the Killing!
	🕰 ♥ 7:28pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @7:26 I tried to warn you this morning! Until the baby can at least talk in complete sentences, I don't think you have to go. Also, no one ever has to go to Pennsylvania.
	♥ 7:29pm Rich in Washington: ↳ DJ Peter @7:20 It was creeping up a bit but holding at 25 degrees! Woo hoo!
	🕰 ♥ 7:29pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @7:24 I have some of his albums (under his name0, whicfh I like. He has a bit of an odd style, idiosyncratyic timing. (Reminds me a bit of the Micros Joel Forrester in that way, though they don't sound alike, but they both have idiosyncratic timing...)
	🕰 ♥ 7:29pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @7:28 Let's give the Perkussie players some!
	🕰 ♥ 7:30pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:28 She was the sweetest little thing, though...and it was in a very good Italian restaurant (her dad is from Italy)
	🕰 7:33pm kwatts: Ken Smith basses are handmade in Perkasie, PA.
	🕰 ♥ 7:35pm doctorjazz: ↳ kwatts @7:33 Really! There's something there aside from the Italian Restaurant! (I wouldn'have guessed) (It's not too far from the Poconos, I believe).
	🕰 ♥ 7:35pm Listener Gregory: The Don Pullen-Kenny Wheeler duos are really fantastic, but no one talks about them.
	🕰 ♥ 7:36pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @7:35 One of the Perkasies of buying a bass there is you get good Italian food. (I'm trying my hardest, people! Surely someone can do better.)
	♥ 7:37pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:35 Ooh, let me work on that. I think i have some solo kenny wheeler, maybe i can mix with Pullen
	🕰 ♥ 7:38pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @7:35 If you happen to be buying a bass in Perkasie, Pa, be sure to stop at Sapori Italian Restaurant (if you have money left after puschasing a handmade bass...)
	🕰 ♥ 7:43pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "B1 = Comp. 23 E" by "Anthony Braxton" Braxton's song titles always fascinate me, so I googled this album. The one I found on Bandcamp didn't list any title that looked like this, though... www.discogs.com...
	♥ 7:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ kwatts @7:33 Cool! Do you have a photo of a fave Ken Smith bass, kwatts?
	♥ 7:44pm Michael 98145: ↳ doctorjazz @7:35 Actually, the Poconos can be quite nice. Had ancestors in Coal Country up there.
	🕰 ♥ 7:45pm doctorjazz: ↳ Michael 98145 @7:44 OH, I know, went mountain biking there a long time ago, it's gorgeous (wound up in a local emergency room, but that's another story)
	🕰 ♥ 7:46pm doctorjazz: The Ken Smith Bass Website: www.kensmithbasses.com (looks to be all electric basses from my quick perusal(
	♥ 7:50pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:46 Sweet! Beautiful woods, the shape is a bit like a splayed out Telecaster
	♥ 7:50pm Michael 98145: ↳ doctorjazz @7:45 yikes
	🕰 ♥ 7:52pm doctorjazz: ↳ Michael 98145 @7:50 I have to say, it was a VERY NICE Emergency Room as well...
	♥ 7:55pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:52 Another recording from this period with a lot of Brits and a few Canadians...
	♥ 7:55pm DJ Peter: coming up that is
	♥ 7:56pm Hill Country Fox: Ok, catching up. All the road grime is off me. Love all the PA hating. Yes, stay away from PA. I’ve met some real scoundrels from there. And the chocolate is really waxy… left a bad taste in my mouth.
	🕰 ♥ 7:59pm doctorjazz: ↳ Hill Country Fox @7:56 They actually DID have some chocolate (which was not good), and some cupcakes (which were also not good), the only sour notes in the meal...
	🕰 ♥ 7:59pm Listener Gregory: When I used to see game consoles, I was paid PerCasio.
	♥ 7:59pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:59 There it is!
	🕰 ♥ 8:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @7:59 What is this trend of salting all these sweets (Ice cream, cakes)? I don't get it, and hate the taste...
	🕰 ♥ 8:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @8:00 (I make an exception for chocolate covered pretzels...)
	🕰 ♥ 8:01pm Listener Gregory: Looking at a map, I see that Skydive Philadelphia is actually in Perkasie, so I wonder what @doctorj was really doing there.
	🕰 ♥ 8:06pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Free Wheeler" by "Maynard Ferguson" I'm kind of an MF hater, but that was pretty good.
	♥ 8:08pm DJ Peter: If I believed in guilt, Ferguson would be a guilty pleasure. Sometimes some bad taste is what you need.
	🕰 ♥ 8:10pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "The Longest Day" by "Azimuth with Ralph Towner" Somehow, I have lived this long without knowing what Azimuth was, though I saw all their records in the shops. Maybe the problem was that only later did I get to know Winstone and Wheeler.
	♥ 8:10pm Hill Country Fox: ↳ Song: "The Longest Day" by "Azimuth with Ralph Towner" L🔥VE this.
	♥ 8:14pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "The Bereaved Swan" by "Kenny Wheeler, Norma Winst... Stevie Smith swan robertfrostsbanjo.blogspot.com...
	♥ 8:14pm DJ Peter: The poem that Wheeler has set to music ^^^
	8:15pm Dean: Well, when you make ice cream you need salt, but that doesn't have anything to do with the ingredients in the ice cream itself.
	♥ 8:16pm DJ Peter: Yes, what you need is ice, salt, and a lot of kids who really want ice cream to take turns cranking
	🕰 ♥ 8:16pm doctorjazz: ↳ Dean @8:15 You add a bit, but if it TASTES very salty, something's wrong (to me, anyway)
	♥ 8:17pm Hill Country Fox: ↳ doctorjazz @8:16 I like finishing salt… a lovely smattering of pink Himalayan sea salt on REALLY good dark chocolate is the tits.
	8:22pm Dean: Ice cream salt isn't added to the icing cream; it helps the temperature decrease. I'm not much a sweets eater, and I do sometimes enjoy salted sweets, but then I only occasionally enjoy sweets at all. Except for Gateau St. Honore, which I would consume every day if I could, I don't much need dessert.
	🕰 ♥ 8:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Resistor" by "Bill Frisell" Electric bass and tuba, great bottom end combo (actually love any tuba bass)!
	🕰 ♥ 8:23pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @8:22 Interesting... Jerome Harris returns 20 years later to play in some of Motian's groups, but an acoustic bass guitar.
	🕰 ♥ 8:26pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:23 I believe Harris also plays electric guitar.
	🕰 ♥ 8:27pm doctorjazz: Lots of ECM recordings (which I'd have guessed), but more non-ECM recordings (than I would have guessed).
	🕰 ♥ 8:28pm doctorjazz: Gotta run, will try to catch up with the last half hour, nice show! Thanks, DJ Peter, Clock Punchers!
	8:28pm Dean: A neighbor who has played bass for, e.g., Country Joe, is standing outside right now chatting with my wife. He's terrific.
	🕰 ♥ 8:35pm coelacanth∅: hello Peter and all
	♥ 8:39pm DJ Peter: How's 2024 treating you thus far, coelacanthø?
	🕰 ♥ 8:41pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @8:28 It's a long way to Perkasie, It's a long way to go. It's a long way to Perkasie, To the sweetest 1-year-old I know! Goodbye, Ocean City, Farewell, Trenton fair! It's a long long way to Perkasie, But my heart's right there.
	🕰 ♥ 8:45pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:41 ;- )
	8:49pm Dean: No! Not Country Joe. Dan Hicks.
	🕰 ♥ 8:50pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Epic" by "Claudio Fasoli" I've gotten a few of these Black Saint/Soul Note boxes. Don't Have this one, looks like it's worth get going! (Currently working my way through the Trovesi box) www.discogs.com...
	🕰 ♥ 8:51pm Listener Gregory: It seems that you won't be playing anything from Angel Song, which is probably good, because now you won't hear my story of when I heard the group live in London. It's not much of a story, to be honest.
	♥ 8:51pm Hill Country Fox: I knew you couldn’t leave us Doc J. :)
	♥ 8:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:50 I wouldna hurd of some of these Italian guys (some of them coming out as the LP was being phased out) but as you intuited they are collected in a Kenny Wheeler box
	♥ 8:52pm Hill Country Fox: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:51 Hahaha…
	🕰 ♥ 8:52pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @8:51 Soul Note box?
	♥ 8:52pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:51 Such a great album! I didn't omit it just to obscure. Just other stuff I thought worth airing
	8:53pm Dean: Oh, crap...Bob Dylan?! https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/14/us/hot-air-balloon-crash-arizona.html
	♥ 8:54pm DJ Peter: What!
	♥ 8:55pm DJ Peter: not yet on the app... will look at your link
	🕰 ♥ 8:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ Hill Country Fox @8:51 Hard to go...family has to wait...
	🕰 ♥ 8:58pm Listener Gregory: Great show, Peter! And not at all too much of a good thing, as it would be with some artists who don't have Wheeler's diversity. Thanks a mil. See you all in Perkasie!
	🕰 ♥ 8:58pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:51 The boxes are out of print, but available at good prices online...
	🕰 ♥ 8:58pm doctorjazz: Thanks, DJ Peter!
	♥ 8:59pm Hill Country Fox: Nite, nite. I’m lactose intolerant.
	🕰 ♥ 9:00pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Dean @8:53 The story doesn't seem to mention Bob Dylan.
	♥ 9:00pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:58 Next year in Perkasie!
	9:00pm Dean: I'M JOKING. See Ken's show Wednesday mornings.
	🕰 ♥ 9:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Peter!
	♥ 9:02pm DJ Peter: Dean! Oy.
	🕰 ♥ 9:13pm WR: Thank you! Peter!

The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from January 14, 2024

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.

	♥ 8:17pm Hill Country Fox: ↳ doctorjazz @8:16 I like finishing salt… a lovely smattering of pink Himalayan sea salt on REALLY good dark chocolate is the tits.
	8:22pm Dean: Ice cream salt isn't added to the icing cream; it helps the temperature decrease. I'm not much a sweets eater, and I do sometimes enjoy salted sweets, but then I only occasionally enjoy sweets at all. Except for Gateau St. Honore, which I would consume every day if I could, I don't much need dessert.
	🕰 ♥ 8:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Resistor" by "Bill Frisell" Electric bass and tuba, great bottom end combo (actually love any tuba bass)!
	🕰 ♥ 8:23pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @8:22 Interesting... Jerome Harris returns 20 years later to play in some of Motian's groups, but an acoustic bass guitar.
	🕰 ♥ 8:26pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:23 I believe Harris also plays electric guitar.
	🕰 ♥ 8:27pm doctorjazz: Lots of ECM recordings (which I'd have guessed), but more non-ECM recordings (than I would have guessed).
	🕰 ♥ 8:28pm doctorjazz: Gotta run, will try to catch up with the last half hour, nice show! Thanks, DJ Peter, Clock Punchers!
	8:28pm Dean: A neighbor who has played bass for, e.g., Country Joe, is standing outside right now chatting with my wife. He's terrific.
	🕰 ♥ 8:35pm coelacanth∅: hello Peter and all
	♥ 8:39pm DJ Peter: How's 2024 treating you thus far, coelacanthø?
	🕰 ♥ 8:41pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @8:28 It's a long way to Perkasie, It's a long way to go. It's a long way to Perkasie, To the sweetest 1-year-old I know! Goodbye, Ocean City, Farewell, Trenton fair! It's a long long way to Perkasie, But my heart's right there.
	🕰 ♥ 8:45pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:41 ;- )
	8:49pm Dean: No! Not Country Joe. Dan Hicks.
	🕰 ♥ 8:50pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Epic" by "Claudio Fasoli" I've gotten a few of these Black Saint/Soul Note boxes. Don't Have this one, looks like it's worth get going! (Currently working my way through the Trovesi box) www.discogs.com...
	🕰 ♥ 8:51pm Listener Gregory: It seems that you won't be playing anything from Angel Song, which is probably good, because now you won't hear my story of when I heard the group live in London. It's not much of a story, to be honest.
	♥ 8:51pm Hill Country Fox: I knew you couldn’t leave us Doc J. :)
	♥ 8:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:50 I wouldna hurd of some of these Italian guys (some of them coming out as the LP was being phased out) but as you intuited they are collected in a Kenny Wheeler box
	♥ 8:52pm Hill Country Fox: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:51 Hahaha…
	🕰 ♥ 8:52pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @8:51 Soul Note box?
	♥ 8:52pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:51 Such a great album! I didn't omit it just to obscure. Just other stuff I thought worth airing
	8:53pm Dean: Oh, crap...Bob Dylan?! https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/14/us/hot-air-balloon-crash-arizona.html
	♥ 8:54pm DJ Peter: What!
	♥ 8:55pm DJ Peter: not yet on the app... will look at your link
	🕰 ♥ 8:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ Hill Country Fox @8:51 Hard to go...family has to wait...
	🕰 ♥ 8:58pm Listener Gregory: Great show, Peter! And not at all too much of a good thing, as it would be with some artists who don't have Wheeler's diversity. Thanks a mil. See you all in Perkasie!
	🕰 ♥ 8:58pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:51 The boxes are out of print, but available at good prices online...
	🕰 ♥ 8:58pm doctorjazz: Thanks, DJ Peter!
	♥ 8:59pm Hill Country Fox: Nite, nite. I’m lactose intolerant.
	🕰 ♥ 9:00pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Dean @8:53 The story doesn't seem to mention Bob Dylan.
	♥ 9:00pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:58 Next year in Perkasie!
	9:00pm Dean: I'M JOKING. See Ken's show Wednesday mornings.
	🕰 ♥ 9:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Peter!
