"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot."

Listener comments!

Is that Mofongo or the lamented late Mofungo?

g/g is some weird Latvian stuff, "dievs ir mirs" could translate to "God is dead"

Great stuff.

PERFECT joanna newsom mashup!

Thu. 8/16/07 12:07pm From: John

Mofongi is a living musician named Joe Ayala...J

I really feel your selections have a very distinct sound, like I could draw an outline around them with a sharpie. It's also good to feel that my ears are safely in the hands of artists who knew what they wanted to achieve, and did so directly, with minimal dicking around. Long time listener!

Thu. 8/23/07 9:52am From: Amit

What was the fragmented piece between Eyvind Kang and Don Cherry Quintet?

Thu. 8/23/07 10:48am From: JA

Amit, that may or may not have been intended.

Pete, thanks for checking in.
