Woo! I'm up late (its 11pm here) and I'm digging it.
Hi Doug and listeners.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:04pm listener james from westwood:

Already loving this.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:05pm Doug Schulkind:

This will help you wind down after a long day in the cotton fields, Stanley!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:06pm davex:

Hey Stanley, just past midnight here - perfect time for these great sounds, actually.
Avatar 6:07pm glenn:

It is 1:07AM in Addis Ababa right now. Even perfecter!
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 6:07pm Jeff:

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:09pm Doug Schulkind:

Everything I play gwon by funky, Jeff. Except when I play Gwar.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:09pm Doug Schulkind:

Hiya glenn!
Avatar 6:10pm glenn:

gwar ain't funky?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:10pm Stanley:

@davex - I see you must be in Continental Europe.

Funny you should say that, Artie. Keep eyes/ears on next sèlection.
  6:17pm Dean:

For some reason I flashed on Woody Allen's "Zelig." My mind's eye can see him there playing clarinet in that jpg, just to the drummer's left.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:17pm Doug Schulkind:

I wrote a little something about Mr. Mekurya in my Favorites of 2003 piece: wfmu.org...

Jesus, this saxophone thing is off the charts!

What everyone else said!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:24pm Doug Schulkind:

I think maybe you just had a mini-stroke, Dean.
  6:25pm Dean:

It's possible. My hearing is intermittent lately, but weirdly only when I'm listening to WFMU.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:27pm Stanley:

Doug - is this Ali Birra chap from Sudan?
I kinda recognise the style
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:28pm Doug Schulkind:

Maybe your ears are wearing their WFMU mittens, Dean.

No, Stanley. All Ethiopian tonight.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:31pm Doug Schulkind:

My new saying:

Ethiopian Bass Players Have More Fun
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:31pm Stanley:

Ah, I see.
The music floats down the Blue Nile.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:33pm Doug Schulkind:

No paddle necessary.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:35pm Doug Schulkind:

GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO PROGRAMMING ALERT...
Jèssè Kamínsky is up next — in 25 minutes — with Kaminsky Kamoutsky. His playlist page is hèrè: wfmu.org...
  6:37pm Dean:

Apropos not of today's show, but of other GTDS programs, this: http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/opinions/wp/2014/08/08/all-that-jazz-isnt-all-that-great/ Discuss.

(There went that intermittent hearing problem again. The stream, as distinct from the Nile, is cutting out.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:39pm Doug Schulkind:

Anyone else having stream problems? It has been spottier than usual this week. I believe it is a WFMU connectivity issue. My connection in to the stream has been solid.

Dean, I thought that Washington Post piece was merely a massive bit of trolling. I didn't go for the bait.
Avatar 6:40pm ndbob:

not today Doug
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:41pm davex:

Stream working well in Saxony.
  6:44pm Dean:

Must depart, alas. I plan soon to print out a few years' of DS's favorites and head to the vinyl shop. (I always pass up that Roswell Rudd, for the very reason DS states.) Beautiful afternoon (where I sit) sounds today.
Avatar ♥ 6:44pm Carmichael:

OK, Doug finally got a chance to dial in. Sounds Africa-y!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:46pm Gary:

No streaming problems here
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:46pm Doug Schulkind:

If you ever do encounter stream problems, the first thing to do is curse like a sailor at high volume. If that doesn't help, maybe try stopping-and-starting your device while cursing like a sailor at high volume.

Cheers to you, Dean!

You are correct-y, Carmichael!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:47pm listener james from westwood:

First political poll of the season, from Cory Booker's campaign. Plan to vote for him, although he's confirmed my fear that by entering the Senate, we in NJ would hear less from and about him.
Avatar 6:47pm Holly in NC:

Hi Doug & all other friends!

Not listening as can't at the moment but thinking of y'all, will catch up later tonight.

:-)

BTW, Ethiopiques series changed my (listening) life.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:49pm Gary:

Again, Jesus! BHO!
Avatar ♥ 6:50pm Carmichael:

Gary, are you connected to AmericaOffLine? Sorry to hear you're not hearing.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:51pm Gary:

Carmichael, that was not in reference to sound going out. it was in reference to awesome sounds going in (my ears)
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:52pm Gary:

BHO = Blow Head Off
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:52pm Doug Schulkind:

Hèllo Holly in NC!

(I hope you're all not tired of me putting grave accents on all my eeeees, cause I'm not going to stop! Èvèr.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:53pm Doug Schulkind:

I've got a track by BHO here somewhere, Gary. Gimme a minute. I mean, a minutè.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:55pm Jeff Golick:

Hi.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:55pm davex:

This has been particularly excellent!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:55pm Doug Schulkind:

Jèff Golick!

That's Jèffré, if you please.
Avatar ♥ 6:56pm Carmichael:

OK good, Gary!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:57pm Doug Schulkind:

If you all are very nice and sweet, I bet Jesse Kaminsky might keep Ethiopizing some more...

@Jeff Golick
As long as it's not Gèoffrèy!

Jesse here: wfmu.org...

This music is making me very happy. Also, I made a zucchini lasagna and it's in the oven. Double happy.

DOUBLÈ HAPPY!!

Smashing show, Doug! Enjoy the lasagna!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:01pm Jeff Golick:

Re that trolling WaPo thing, Ethan Iverson has a good response up on his blog...
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:01pm Gary:

So, so great -- thank you, Doug!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:02pm Jeff Golick:

Actually, scratch that, was in response to different jazz trolling: dothemath.typepad.com...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:02pm Sonny Rollins:

So much jazz trolling lately.
