Extra Drummer labor on Labor Day, but of love, one assumes.. L(D)OL.

"There are no bad kids.Or dogs." But, then, as someone said of W.C. Fields, "Any man who hates dogs and babies can't be all bad." These don't necessary conflict or cancel each other out, but a mountaintop monk is gonna have to sort out/trace the tracks of these truths.

Good evening, still w/c!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:38pm Parq:

Major revamp of the family stereo today. CD changer served me well for 17 years, gave up the ghost. Remains may be viewed by appointment. On the good side, got the turntable working again. Tie ball game.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:44pm Doug Schulkind:

Hello, Parq, you ol' turntablist you!
Avatar 7:45pm still b/p:

Family requests that iPods do not attend?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:48pm Doug Schulkind:

Remember that craze a few months back when the kids were all eating there iPods. Crazy kids.
Avatar 7:50pm still b/p:

There ain't no bad kids, but vast armies of crazy ones -- some burping songs and bubbles.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:52pm Parq:

iPods? I must not have been listening closely. I thought they said the fad was for eating at the Iditarod.
Avatar 7:53pm still b/p:

Eating what, of course? ...."Mush!"
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:55pm Doug Schulkind:

@still b/p
Kids these days. They have no taste!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:03pm Doug Schulkind:

The percussionist on this track is Big Black. He was born Danny Ray in Savannah, Georgia. He appeared in one episode of Sanford & Son.

Heylo! Drums!

chresti is besti!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:08pm doctorjazz:

Surprise Drummer Weston tribute, hey all!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:09pm Parq:

Can we agree that "Jumping Flugelhorn" would be a good name for a band? Or at least a good thing to exclaim when you're astonished by something.
Avatar 8:12pm still b/p:

I don't think Sophia Loren will mind if we adapt the lyric she sang to Cary Grant's kids in Houseboat.
"Chresti, Chresti,
Do your very besti...."
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:13pm Doug Schulkind:

Waiter, I'll have what Parq is smoking.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:13pm Doug Schulkind:

@doctorjazz
Surprise!!
Avatar 8:16pm still b/p:

You don't want to think about a jumping flugelhorn when you're walking alone in the dark band room late at night.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:24pm Uncle Michael:

Hey, Dougie!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:25pm Doug Schulkind:

Hello, my dear Uncle!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:26pm Doug Schulkind:

Gilbert "G.T." Hogan is the man ravishing the drumset here.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:26pm Parq:

You laugh, but I was in suburban Seattle last summer and had the to-me surreal experiences of seeing marijuana stores off the arterial roads, right next to the chain health-and-beauty stores and the dry cleaners. Honey, on the way home tonight, could you pick up a half gallon of milk, get your shirts and buy $50 of sens?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:26pm Doug Schulkind:

Although the LP lists him as Hoogan.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:28pm Doug Schulkind:

On another LP, he is listed as Wilbert, not Gilbert.

Sigh.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:28pm Uncle Michael:

I'd like to believe that Dr. Seuss named the flugelhorn.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:29pm Doug Schulkind:

@Parq
There is a medical marijuana dispensary located about 3 minutes from my house.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:31pm Doug Schulkind:

This music is being performed live at the Newport Jazz Festival, 1958.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:35pm Doug Schulkind:

Great touches of Monk in Randy's playing here. He was an earlier admirer/proponent of Monk's approach to the keyboard.

As I was youth-sitting over the weekend, here was a wafting up from passerby into the open second floor window , the 11 year old says something like, "Man, we always have to smell pot."
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:36pm Doug Schulkind:

Youth-sitting. Still trying to digest that one.
Avatar 8:39pm still b/p:

Well, you could call it "babysitting,' but that might dis the yoots -- 11 and 14.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:40pm Doug Schulkind:

This piece was written by the great Ghanaian musician Guy Warren. It is his meditation on Romeo and Juliet.

Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:45pm Parq:

Doug, this isn't medical weed in WA. You buy the stuff the same way you buy beer, and usually they're two or three buildings away from each other.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:45pm Doug Schulkind:

Quentin Jackson on trombone here. He is the owner of one of the great nicknames in jazz (or all humanity).

Ladies and gentlemen:
Quentin "Butter" Jackson

@Parq
Goin' full Amsterdam, eh?
Avatar 8:45pm still b/p:

The yoot-monitoring had me confronting questions of enforcement when it came to the absent Mama's rules/limits: how much are you going to reasonably negotiate or play the iron-handed time-keeper/confiscator or shovel useless shit against the tide of obsessesion when it comes to.....the 14-year-old's phone?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:48pm Doug Schulkind:

That there's a master's thesis in childhood development, still b/p.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:49pm chresti:

find out the yoot's phone number and call him/her?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:50pm Doug Schulkind:

Help prevent youth decay?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:56pm Doug Schulkind:

Run fast and go have a tinkle, then settle in for the fabulous Sam Segal and his broadcast IF YOU LOSE YOUR HORSE. It's next, here on your 24-hour Drummer Stream.
