"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." (Visit homepage.)

"In the early days, they toyed with the idea of bringing out a high powered fan on stage.
They intended to feed poison ivy through it, but reconsidered when they realized that they’d
be even more likely to get a rash than the audience would. They then decided that they would
feed raw chicken livers into the fan, but I do not believe they ever carried this out." source: www.yellowgreenred.com...

I says :
Always parodied & remarked upon for his loquacious, even recursive & definitely lecture-like style of on-air discourse of minutia & points of contention in the details of Jazz History (especially those pertaining to Charlie Parker)
- he was almost always beloved too by all these same people.
Losing Phil Schaap is a loss in Cultural Entertainment & Broadcasting
- but also like losing the best & greatest Library of Jazz Knowledge there can ever be.
He gave us a lot.

I want to help John move some fanny packs by reminding Dog Guardians that another name for them is Treat Pouch, aka bait bag, and every dog guardian should have one or several.

John, are your treat pouches lined? Multiple pockets?

Let’s be honest, if listeners based donations on the quality of leadership there, there’d be a precipitous drop. Most of us base our donations on the DJs we love and, depending on the day and time, kind of rely on.

You can always come with me (virtually/digitally) on my ongoing discovery of the local visual art scene I started shortly before the pandemic (although only a substitute for my future actual plan to see Art I have always desired to see, for when I get to other countries more serious about it)

your show has been LIFE to me this (pandemic) year.

Krys O.:

Donating to WFMU as a free-form radio station gives a huge return in value. It's almost incalculable, especially during a pandemic. Withholding pledges for picayune reasons is just not nice.

BTW-I believe the figure is about 10% of the listening audience actually donates to the station. :(
