	♥ 7:18pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:16 I was thrilled to stumble across this CD in the used bin... where Pullen has the space to stretch out and do his thing solo...
	♥ 7:19pm DJ Peter: There's a great article in Downbeat where he talks about making sure he hits certain black keys that fit the tonality that he wants -- it's not just chance...

	🕰 ♥ 7:28pm doctorjazz: ↳ Ivan from Woodbridge @7:27 Not too far from you, Westfield.
	♥ 7:29pm Ivan from Woodbridge: ↳ doctorjazz @7:28 Indeed!
	🕰 ♥ 7:32pm coelacanth∅: good evening Peter, y'all
	♥ 7:35pm DJ Peter: Hi coelacanthø! Are the dogs barking?
	7:36pm bigplanetnoise: Hey Coel!

	🕰 ♥ 7:36pm Listener Gregory: Hello, Clockers. Sorry I'm late... had to eat dinner.
	🕰 ♥ 7:37pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "The Necessary Blues (Thank You Very Much, Mr. Mon... Where's Danny Richmond???
	♥ 7:37pm DJ Peter: Sure, but I was intentionally vague. You can say if your shoes are too tight too.

	🕰 ♥ 7:41pm coelacanth∅: ↳ bigplanetnoise @7:36 hi Bob!
	♥ 7:42pm DJ Peter: I'm trying to think if that reminds me of anyone... it's on the tip of my tongue...
	♥ 7:42pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @7:42 (referring to the dogs)
	🕰 ♥ 7:43pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "The Necessary Blues (Thank You Very Much, Mr. Mon... I see they're taking this at a leisurely pace.
	🕰 ♥ 7:46pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Misty Roses" by "Modern Jazz Quartet" Purty!
	♥ 7:47pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:43 Yeah by my calculations it's about 290 beats per minute
	🕰 ♥ 7:49pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Misty Roses" by "Modern Jazz Quartet" Never heard of the Oscar label.
	🕰 ♥ 7:50pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Misty Roses" by "Modern Jazz Quartet" Another album I don't have (have the complete MJQ CD box, and mult LPs-box ain't so complete after all).
	♥ 7:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:49 Discogs only has four releases from Oscar, and they all look to be repackagings of a foreign issue... so somewhat dubious, legally...
	🕰 ♥ 7:51pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @7:50 That's why they pay the DJs the big bucks!
	7:52pm Jeff g. via app: Ayo.
	♥ 7:53pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff g. via app @7:52 Oya!
	🕰 ♥ 7:54pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Four of a Kind" by "Behn Gillece" Don't know Gillece, nice! (really like Royston, he has some nice albums on Dave Douglas' Greenleaf record label.
	🕰 ♥ 7:55pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @7:50 What's the complete MJQ box? On Atlantic?
	🕰 ♥ 7:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:55 www.discogs.com...
	🕰 ♥ 7:57pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @7:56 It does miss the Atlantic (most of which I have on LP)
	8:00pm Jeff g. via app: Do you think the vibists insist on having “stick” in the LP title?
	♥ 8:02pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff g. via app @8:00 They are sticklers for it
	♥ 8:04pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:57 Mosaic put out an Atlantic "studio" recordings box for the 1960s, but that leaves out the live albums, and the later Atlantics like "Blues on Bach." Then there are the two the did for the Beatles' Apple label.
	♥ 8:05pm DJ Peter: www.discogs.com...
	♥ 8:05pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @8:02 they are mallet-adjusted
	🕰 ♥ 8:06pm doctorjazz: So far sounds more mainstream than the previous Dutch Jazz Scene sets.
	🕰 ♥ 8:07pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DJ Peter @8:05 "mallet-adjusted". that has a nice ring to it.
	♥ 8:08pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:07 touché! LOL
	🕰 ♥ 8:10pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:04 Don't have the Mosaic box, but looking at the LP racks, have 10 MJQ records, could be missing something or other...
	8:11pm Listener Gregory: @doctorj, I think there was a lot of mainstream Euro-jazz we never heard, because we had our own mainstream jazz to deal with. The avant-garde was more distinctive.
	🕰 ♥ 8:12pm doctorjazz: MJQ were one of the earliest jazz groups I got heavily into, whcn I first started listening to jazz (took me a whole to "get" Milt Jackson, though, found John Lweis moch easier to "grok" early on.
	🕰 ♥ 8:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:11 True, and I can't even say I know the European avant-garde all that well. Thomas Conrad is a reviewer who often reviews European jazz players-I find I like stuff he gives good reviews to.
	♥ 8:14pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:12 I had the opposite reaction: I needed to slow down and listen to Lewis to really get what he was doing. Then once I got it, I really loved him too. Something like Miles & Coltrane? Great contrasting styles I mean.
	🕰 ♥ 8:15pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:14 Miles and Trane were never an issue-early on, though, I got Dizzy Gillespie much more than Bird, that took me a bit of time/listening.
	🕰 ♥ 8:18pm Listener Gregory: I really think the listeners need to get Doug to make an opening statement for this show, in which he says, "The following show is The Laughing Clock (ha ha), programmed by DJ Peter, the leading jazz internet DJ of Delaware. The next voice you hear will be that of DJ Peter. Enjoy." Come on, Doug—do your job!
	🕰 ♥ 8:20pm doctorjazz: Grabbing some dinner-music ON!
	🕰 ♥ 8:21pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:18 Saying "ha ha" after mentioning the title is crucial. More ha's may be added as needed or helpful.
	♥ 8:21pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:15 Yeah, I didn't mean Miles and Trane were hard to grok (but some people may have felt that way about Trane), just that the Lewis-Jackson combo of contrasting styles is the magic of the MJQ, like Miles and Trane's contrast. Somebody (Ira Gitler?) said it was like setting a diamond on sandpaper (I presume he meant Trane was the abrasive)
	♥ 8:22pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:21 It's a fine line between HA HA and HA HA HA
	🕰 ♥ 8:23pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @8:22 Yes, it's all in the intonation.
	🕰 ♥ 8:23pm coelacanth∅: and at the 4-ha point it crosses into sinister
	🕰 ♥ 8:24pm Little Danny: really enjoying this!
	🕰 ♥ 8:24pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Images (1968) for Flute, Oboe, Violin, & 'Cello" ... "With this composition, Yun carried out an order of the Mills College in Oakland, California (USA)." So sad to see that Mills College has closed to on-campus instruction and can no longer order composers to do anything.
	♥ 8:26pm DJ Peter: ↳ Little Danny @8:24 Birdsong is Danny's jam
	8:27pm Dean: Heinz Holliger deserves an hour on a show one of theses days. A tribute or sampler. Mills has no on-campus instruction? I thought the merger with NE retained at least some instruction, maybe no the Music Dep't?
	🕰 ♥ 8:28pm Little Danny: ↳ DJ Peter @8:26 :)
	8:30pm Listener Gregory: @Dean, there is some vestigial activity, like at many closing colleges, but their composer-ordering days are gone. I think they’re focusing on education classes now, though I may be confusing them with one of the other dozen colleges that closed in recent years.
	8:31pm Listener Gregory: I agree about Holliger, but is anyone hearing oboe yet?
	♥ 8:32pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:31 it's there, but maybe the mix favors violin and flute
	♥ 8:34pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:23 then 'round about the thirteen HA mark it becomes manic and soon gives way to sobs
	8:37pm Listener Gregory: Yes, I can hear another instrument that isn’t violin or flute, but I wouldn’t have identified it as an oboe.
	8:40pm Dean: I think you're hearing the tambourine, LG.
	🕰 ♥ 8:41pm Doug Schulkind: Hello friends! Just a quick programming note: Primal Ice Cream will not be on the air this evening. You will be released on your own recognizance as soon as DJ Peter releases your ears.
	8:42pm Dean: Latent Ice Cream, I guess
	🕰 ♥ 8:43pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Monk's Dance" by "Charles Lloyd" Loyd still has quite some chops!
	🕰 ♥ 8:44pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Dean @8:40 There should have been more cowbell. Otherwise I liked the piece a great deal.
	🕰 ♥ 8:46pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:44 I'm ALWAYS feeling cowbell deficient!
	🕰 ♥ 8:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Sis" by "Max Roach Double Quartet" Cool album! (still thinking I should get the Soul Note/Black Saint boxes-2-of Roach's recording for them...out of print, but can still be found).
	🕰 ♥ 8:50pm doctorjazz: Thanks, DJ Peter, dug the show!
	8:51pm Listener Gregory: Those records are great. I got a bunch of them at the time. Cecil Bridgewater is so good both as a player and composer. I saw the quartet live once, and they made a big impression on me, especially Roach’s immense dignity.
	♥ 8:52pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 Obviously I think his Soul Note period isn't celebrated enough. And one of those boxes has the Cecil Taylor concert too
	🕰 ♥ 8:54pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:51 I have some of them from the initial releases as well, always hard to buy box sets when you have some of the albums.
	8:59pm Dean: (I have to confess that I really love Bobo Stenson, too.)
	🕰 ♥ 8:59pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Pocket of Clave" by "Altin Sencalar" For every Posi-Tone record you play, you must play a Nega-Tone record to restore balance to the Stream.
	🕰 ♥ 8:59pm WR: Thank you, Peter. Laters folks.
	🕰 ♥ 8:59pm Listener Gregory: Thanks a lot, Peter! You are the leading jazz internet DJ of Delaware, and I mean that.
	🕰 ♥ 9:00pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Dean @8:59 Why must you confess that?
	♥ 9:00pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:59 I would blush but I know you are half-ironical
	🕰 ♥ 9:31pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Peter!

The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from April 28, 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.

Isang Yun	Images (1968) for Flute, Oboe, Violin, & 'Cello	Compositions of Isang Yun-4 (Heinz Holliger, Aurèle Nicolet, Hanscheinz Schneeberger, and Thomas Demenga)	Camerata	1989	Nicolet (flute), Holliger (oboe), Schneeberger (violin), Demenga (cello): July 1985, Basel. "inspired by the Koguryô-frescos of the Great Tomb of Kangsô from the 6th/7th century. The grave is situated near Uhyôu-ri, Southwest of P'yôngyang in today's North Korea. The composer who owns reproductions of these frescos since 1960 had seen the originals in 1963, and his spectacular kidnapping by the South Korean secret service was certainly also due to this travel to North Korea. During the Koguryo-era it was quite usual to paint the four protecting gods on the four walls of a burial chamber. The black turtle with snake (reproduced on the cover of 32CM-68) symbolizes not only the direction North, but also the season winter, the element water and so on. On the Eastern wall, the blue dragon is represented (spring, air/wind, wood), on the Southern one the red Phoenix (summer, fire). Isang Yun's 'Images', however, only concerns one image, the Western fresco. It became an emblem of the composer's aesthetics in which seeming unambiguity always reveals itself as ambiguous. The Western wall does not only show the tiger (autumn, metal), but into its representation, fragments of the dragon, the turtle and the phoenix have been woven. Thus, the four protecting gods have melted into one entity, and according to the viewer's position, one of the animal figures catches the eye more than the others. "With this composition, Yun carried out an order of the Mills College in Oakland, California (USA). The piece was premiered there on March 24th, 1969. The composer transforms the fresco into movement and tone colours. The flute seems to symbolize the turtle, the oboe the dragon, the violin the bird Phoenix and the violoncello the tiger. But with the changing position of the viewer, the object of his perception is changing also, because the unity of the four is impossible to see even from an ideal point of view. The effort of the composition consists in the attempt to converge the diverging into a harmonious entity." (Walter-Wolfgang Sparrer, trans. Frank Heibert)		1:18:52 (MP3 \| Pop-up)

	🕰 ♥ 7:50pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Misty Roses" by "Modern Jazz Quartet" Another album I don't have (have the complete MJQ CD box, and mult LPs-box ain't so complete after all).
	♥ 7:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:49 Discogs only has four releases from Oscar, and they all look to be repackagings of a foreign issue... so somewhat dubious, legally...
	🕰 ♥ 7:51pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @7:50 That's why they pay the DJs the big bucks!
	7:52pm Jeff g. via app: Ayo.
	♥ 7:53pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff g. via app @7:52 Oya!
	🕰 ♥ 7:54pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Four of a Kind" by "Behn Gillece" Don't know Gillece, nice! (really like Royston, he has some nice albums on Dave Douglas' Greenleaf record label.
	🕰 ♥ 7:55pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @7:50 What's the complete MJQ box? On Atlantic?
	🕰 ♥ 7:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:55 www.discogs.com...
	🕰 ♥ 7:57pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @7:56 It does miss the Atlantic (most of which I have on LP)
	8:00pm Jeff g. via app: Do you think the vibists insist on having “stick” in the LP title?
	♥ 8:02pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff g. via app @8:00 They are sticklers for it
	♥ 8:04pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:57 Mosaic put out an Atlantic "studio" recordings box for the 1960s, but that leaves out the live albums, and the later Atlantics like "Blues on Bach." Then there are the two the did for the Beatles' Apple label.
	♥ 8:05pm DJ Peter: www.discogs.com...
	♥ 8:05pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @8:02 they are mallet-adjusted
	🕰 ♥ 8:06pm doctorjazz: So far sounds more mainstream than the previous Dutch Jazz Scene sets.
	🕰 ♥ 8:07pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DJ Peter @8:05 "mallet-adjusted". that has a nice ring to it.
	♥ 8:08pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:07 touché! LOL
	🕰 ♥ 8:10pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:04 Don't have the Mosaic box, but looking at the LP racks, have 10 MJQ records, could be missing something or other...
	8:11pm Listener Gregory: @doctorj, I think there was a lot of mainstream Euro-jazz we never heard, because we had our own mainstream jazz to deal with. The avant-garde was more distinctive.
	🕰 ♥ 8:12pm doctorjazz: MJQ were one of the earliest jazz groups I got heavily into, whcn I first started listening to jazz (took me a whole to "get" Milt Jackson, though, found John Lweis moch easier to "grok" early on.
	🕰 ♥ 8:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:11 True, and I can't even say I know the European avant-garde all that well. Thomas Conrad is a reviewer who often reviews European jazz players-I find I like stuff he gives good reviews to.
	♥ 8:14pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:12 I had the opposite reaction: I needed to slow down and listen to Lewis to really get what he was doing. Then once I got it, I really loved him too. Something like Miles & Coltrane? Great contrasting styles I mean.
	🕰 ♥ 8:15pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:14 Miles and Trane were never an issue-early on, though, I got Dizzy Gillespie much more than Bird, that took me a bit of time/listening.
	🕰 ♥ 8:18pm Listener Gregory: I really think the listeners need to get Doug to make an opening statement for this show, in which he says, "The following show is The Laughing Clock (ha ha), programmed by DJ Peter, the leading jazz internet DJ of Delaware. The next voice you hear will be that of DJ Peter. Enjoy." Come on, Doug—do your job!
	🕰 ♥ 8:20pm doctorjazz: Grabbing some dinner-music ON!
	🕰 ♥ 8:21pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:18 Saying "ha ha" after mentioning the title is crucial. More ha's may be added as needed or helpful.
	♥ 8:21pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:15 Yeah, I didn't mean Miles and Trane were hard to grok (but some people may have felt that way about Trane), just that the Lewis-Jackson combo of contrasting styles is the magic of the MJQ, like Miles and Trane's contrast. Somebody (Ira Gitler?) said it was like setting a diamond on sandpaper (I presume he meant Trane was the abrasive)
	♥ 8:22pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:21 It's a fine line between HA HA and HA HA HA
	🕰 ♥ 8:23pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @8:22 Yes, it's all in the intonation.
	🕰 ♥ 8:23pm coelacanth∅: and at the 4-ha point it crosses into sinister
	🕰 ♥ 8:24pm Little Danny: really enjoying this!
	🕰 ♥ 8:24pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Images (1968) for Flute, Oboe, Violin, & 'Cello" ... "With this composition, Yun carried out an order of the Mills College in Oakland, California (USA)." So sad to see that Mills College has closed to on-campus instruction and can no longer order composers to do anything.
	♥ 8:26pm DJ Peter: ↳ Little Danny @8:24 Birdsong is Danny's jam
	8:27pm Dean: Heinz Holliger deserves an hour on a show one of theses days. A tribute or sampler. Mills has no on-campus instruction? I thought the merger with NE retained at least some instruction, maybe no the Music Dep't?
	🕰 ♥ 8:28pm Little Danny: ↳ DJ Peter @8:26 :)
	8:30pm Listener Gregory: @Dean, there is some vestigial activity, like at many closing colleges, but their composer-ordering days are gone. I think they’re focusing on education classes now, though I may be confusing them with one of the other dozen colleges that closed in recent years.
	8:31pm Listener Gregory: I agree about Holliger, but is anyone hearing oboe yet?
	♥ 8:32pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:31 it's there, but maybe the mix favors violin and flute
	♥ 8:34pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:23 then 'round about the thirteen HA mark it becomes manic and soon gives way to sobs
	8:37pm Listener Gregory: Yes, I can hear another instrument that isn’t violin or flute, but I wouldn’t have identified it as an oboe.
	8:40pm Dean: I think you're hearing the tambourine, LG.
	🕰 ♥ 8:41pm Doug Schulkind: Hello friends! Just a quick programming note: Primal Ice Cream will not be on the air this evening. You will be released on your own recognizance as soon as DJ Peter releases your ears.
	8:42pm Dean: Latent Ice Cream, I guess
	🕰 ♥ 8:43pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Monk's Dance" by "Charles Lloyd" Loyd still has quite some chops!
	🕰 ♥ 8:44pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Dean @8:40 There should have been more cowbell. Otherwise I liked the piece a great deal.
	🕰 ♥ 8:46pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:44 I'm ALWAYS feeling cowbell deficient!
	🕰 ♥ 8:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Sis" by "Max Roach Double Quartet" Cool album! (still thinking I should get the Soul Note/Black Saint boxes-2-of Roach's recording for them...out of print, but can still be found).
	🕰 ♥ 8:50pm doctorjazz: Thanks, DJ Peter, dug the show!
	8:51pm Listener Gregory: Those records are great. I got a bunch of them at the time. Cecil Bridgewater is so good both as a player and composer. I saw the quartet live once, and they made a big impression on me, especially Roach’s immense dignity.
	♥ 8:52pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 Obviously I think his Soul Note period isn't celebrated enough. And one of those boxes has the Cecil Taylor concert too
	🕰 ♥ 8:54pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:51 I have some of them from the initial releases as well, always hard to buy box sets when you have some of the albums.
	8:59pm Dean: (I have to confess that I really love Bobo Stenson, too.)
	🕰 ♥ 8:59pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Pocket of Clave" by "Altin Sencalar" For every Posi-Tone record you play, you must play a Nega-Tone record to restore balance to the Stream.
	🕰 ♥ 8:59pm WR: Thank you, Peter. Laters folks.
	🕰 ♥ 8:59pm Listener Gregory: Thanks a lot, Peter! You are the leading jazz internet DJ of Delaware, and I mean that.
	🕰 ♥ 9:00pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Dean @8:59 Why must you confess that?
	♥ 9:00pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:59 I would blush but I know you are half-ironical
	🕰 ♥ 9:31pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Peter!
