December 12, 2021: Where Anthony Tillmon Williams Meets 秋吉敏子 (Toshiko Akiyoshi)
Chicago-born (enter no fewer than 5 superlatives here) drummer Tony Williams left us far too soon at 51, but what joy to celebrate not only his life and music, but that of Japanese pianist, composer, and big-band arranger Toshiko Akiyoshi as well - on her 91st birthday. Maybe she's listening.

Listener comments!
	11:59am hyde: hiya
	🥁 12:01pm listener james from westwood: Good Sunday, Stork and all!
	12:03pm Jeff Golick: Who gets tired of hot dogs?
	12:03pm doctorjazz: Helo, Stork and Storkers!
	12:04pm Stork: james, Jeff and doctorjazz!! Geddinheah!!
	12:05pm adamdoesit: Hello Stork and cicognescenti! I'm looking forward to some Bob Dorough and Saint Frank in between the Toshikos and the Tonys. Barkeep, I'm making up for lost time after missing last week, so mix me the usual double, and double it!
	12:05pm chresti: Greetings Stork and swells! I want to see the bright lights,
	🥁 12:06pm listener james from westwood: From the extended show opening, now that I've thought to Google: 45 E. 64th St's near Park Ave. Nice digs.
	12:06pm Stork: Greetings, chresti! And throw your money around? ;)
	12:07pm Stork: adamdoesit is in the house! Back down to the basement for an extra case!!
	12:07pm rw: Hey hey.
	12:08pm TDK60: Hi Stork.
	🥁 12:08pm redkayak: Happy Sunday all :)
	12:10pm chresti: That's right Stork, I have my cookie tin full of pennies with me.
	12:10pm doctorjazz: The background on the Love to keep me warm was very cool!
	🥁 12:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Anthony Tillmon Williams December 12, 1945 – February 23, 1997 ⦿Sun in ♐︎Sagittarius, Year of Wood 🐓Rooster
	12:14pm Stork: @chresti - a whole can?! here you'll live like royalty.
	12:17pm Franco Twinkie: Hello Mr. Stork.
	12:17pm Stork: Hey, Franco Twinkie!
	12:22pm hyde: this is a cool record
	12:23pm listening out there: Howdy hi…
	🥁 12:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ' Williams first gained fame in the band of trumpeter Miles Davis and pioneered jazz fusion. He was inducted into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 1986. During his lifetime, music critic Robert Christgau described Williams as "probably the best drummer in the world". '
	12:25pm Jeff Golick: Love Tony Williams, tho I have a hard time wrapping my head around his two Blue Note leader LPs, Life Time and Spring. They are slippery.
	12:27pm Stork: Agree, JG- Life Time took me a bit of getting used to.
	12:27pm TDK60: Hi Revrab. You lost wi-fi a lot recently?
	12:30pm Stork: Hiya hey, RevRabb hyde, and TDK, listening out there, !! And everyone else I've so callously ignored.
	🥁 12:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mitch Mitchell said Hendrix jammed w/ TonyWilliams - & 'it didn't work out too well'. Yeah TDK60 my mainlain I was leaching in my trap is Off. WiFis from Gym across the road happens to be strong enuff right now if I don't ask too much from it...
	12:36pm Stork: too bad Hendrix and Williams didn't work it out. Just think...
	12:36pm adamdoesit: Flanagan, Carter, and Williams… the wallpaper is peeling, and the waiter has soup on his sleeve, but the rhythm section in this joint is pure class.
	12:37pm Stork: down at heel - that's our address, adamdoesit.
	🥁 12:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: www.facebook.com...
	12:45pm Listener Robert: Since you've been playing the longer clip for your intro, we can surmise more of what it's about. It doesn't contradict my previous assumption that Rick and his wife had recently taken opposite sides in the argument, but it adds more motivation than just a desire to needle her. She'd probably been complaining that he's a cheapskate, but now he has a reason to appear not to be one: business. She doesn't know he's meeting someone for business. The business -- what he's paying this guy for -- is presumably the main object of the play, but it will be augmented by contretemps when she figures out it was for a business meeting. Practically writes itself.
	12:49pm Stork: Spot on, Listener Robert! The only thing different is - she's his associate/confidante/girlfriend and not his wife. But great analysis! Somebody turns up dead after leaving the Stork Club that night - and Diamond investigates.
	12:50pm chresti: Those tricky business guys..
	12:51pm adamdoesit: Love your read, Listener Robert. Am I alone in hearing genuine affection in Rick's voice, maybe affection that he isn't yet willing to admit to himself?
	12:51pm TDK60: Did I miss it? But what is the name of the movie in the opening of show?
	12:53pm hyde: I keep hearing the clips Rex plays on Turner Classic. Maybe i'll catch the Stork Club intro sometime
	12:55pm Listener Robert: You're not alone, I think he's supposed to have genuine affection for her, because that's the way these things work in drama, and largely in real life as well. So I think he'll be bothered that she's miffed, even after he tells her, well, you knew what business I'm in, but then she'll notice some important clue that she'll threaten to withhold from him unless he makes some concession for the future. How serious she is about that threat will be up for the audience to decide.
	12:56pm Listener Robert: I don't think it's a movie, hyde. The way they're playing it sounds like a radio play.
	12:57pm hyde: @listener robery ah yeah, makes sense
	12:58pm Listener Robert: If it were a movie, it'd come off like that comedian who pretends to be a mime and says, "Here I am, pulling on this rope."
	12:58pm adamdoesit: Maybe at the Stork they'll bump into Nick and Nora Charles in the RomComNoir Extended Universe.
	12:59pm HyperDose: Hey Storkers =]
	🥁 1:00pm WR: hello Stork and drummer clubbers. Have been listening since the start.
	1:00pm TDK60: Radio play? There was a movie called Stork Club. DJ is busy, maybe he'll enlighten sooner or later...
	1:01pm hyde: actually, the last thing i heard randomly on TCM was a Dave the Spazz clip. "I made a big idiot of myself tonight. Worse than usual. I really bungled this one". It's from Where the Sidewalk Ends.
	1:02pm Stork: Right again, Listener Robert. It was a radio series in the fifties with William Powell as Detective Rick Diamond.
	1:03pm Listener Robert: I wish that universe crossed over into that of "J-Men Forever". Before New York City was destroyed as part of the double victory, that is.
	1:03pm Stork: And yeah, TDK60, there is a TERRIBLE movie called The Stork Club, with Betty Hutton. Just awful, but a lotta good sound bytes therefrom - I'll have to play more of them in future.
	1:04pm hyde: @Stork isn't it Dick Powell?
	1:04pm Stork: Hi there, Hyperdose!!
	1:04pm TDK60: Danke DJ. Now I go through life, less confused.
	1:04pm MarciB: Stork, just a thank you for making my Sundays so much better with your wonderful show!
	1:05pm Listener Robert: Seems I never miss a chance to point out that Phil Proctor praised Clay Pigeon's work on "Wake and Bake".
	1:05pm TDK60: Maybe I saw Stork Club on the Late Late Late show when I was a kid but memory fails.
	1:05pm Stork: Wynton kills on this.
	1:07pm hyde: Stork Club has Barry Fitzgerald in it, so it can't be all bad
	1:07pm Stork: Hey MarciB!! Thanks hugely! :)))))
	1:10pm Listener Robert: I'm also sure that in that radio play, they took full advantage of that phone number they gave out, for audience research.
	1:12pm Stork: They also give out what sounds like a real Manhattan address. Those were simpler times.
	1:14pm Stork: I always hear melodies when Tony W solos. Maybe it's all in my noggin...
	1:16pm Listener Robert: Simpler, hell, the address would've been in connection with promotion too.
	1:19pm Listener Robert: That may have been before the legal requirement to disclose paid promotions was enacted.
	1:22pm headcleaner: late to the party but glad to be here
	1:24pm Stork: headcleaner!! Great to see you. Has anyone ever told you your name would make a great cocktail name? Big licensing fees? Just sayin..
	1:37pm headcleaner: talk to my agent, Stork, we'll work out a licensing deal
	1:38pm Aitch: New to show. Liking what I'm hearing.
	1:39pm Stork: Welcome, Aitch!
	1:42pm headcleaner: If only my Dad had picked up this record (this was at the cusp of his peak listening years)
	🥁 1:42pm WR: Tony Williams is doing vocal on Where
	🥁 1:43pm WR: Aitch, up awful early today, hope all is well.
	1:44pm hyde: i need to revisit this record
	1:47pm Andrew Waterloo: It was nice fading back into this Tony Williams after a coffee run.
	1:57pm headcleaner: that's a beautiful album cover
	2:04pm Stork: Hey, Andrew Waterloo - welcome back
	🥁 2:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Toshiko Akiyoshi (秋吉敏子 or 穐吉敏子, Akiyoshi Toshiko, born 12 December 1929) ⦿Sun in ♐︎Sagittarius, Year of Earth 🐍Snake ...Not always enuff WiFis to both listen & Comment today - but enuff to listen this afternoon which I appreciate...
	🥁 2:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Petal a truly lovely flute piece / performance without being cloying - to expressive a positive as a negative, as I have a talent for...
	2:19pm Stork: Lew Tabackin is a really sensitive player who can play everything Toshiko can compose and throw at him.
	2:20pm Stork: Jimmy Knepper in the 'bone section!
	🥁 2:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Would a comparison to Gil Evans arranging (as a compliment) makes sense ? @ the same time with the Japanese expression - showing what an International language Jazz really is...
	2:28pm doctorjazz: Had to cut out for a bit, will catch some now, rest tomorrow in the archives.
	2:31pm Stork: OK Dr. J. Hope you can hang for a bit.
	2:31pm doctorjazz: This is purty!
	🥁 2:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Just beautiful.
	🥁 2:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...can't say a thing w/out typos ...sitting on the floor by the right window to get WiFis from across the road...
	2:42pm doctorjazz: And No Moon at All hits all the right Hard Bop notes (ahem, so to speak...). Getting some work done, great soundtrack!
	2:43pm Stork: Agree, doc. Grrrreat tune!
	2:44pm coelacanth∅: greetings Stork and all
	2:44pm adamdoesit: I like the boppish, small-group Toshiko. I've never really listened to her this way before. I'm more familiar with her big band contexts… and not even that familiar with those. This is very cool.
	2:45pm HyperDose: Happy you're here with us, RRN63
	2:47pm chresti: coel has a whole fleet of cool cars.
	2:49pm Stork: Hey, coel!! Hello Hyperdose!!
	🥁 2:49pm Ivan from Woodbridge: Another new svatar HyperDose, but still so “you” :)
	🥁 2:50pm Ivan from Woodbridge: *avatar
	2:50pm chresti: And HyperD has a fleet of cool avatars!
	2:52pm HyperDose: Haha I'm extremely indecisive, but manage to settle on a few from time to time. Been hectic with putting the finishing touches on the apt. Ikea sent the wrong dresser today, but we will persist!
	2:56pm doctorjazz: OK, off to hear some live chamber music (classical guitar and string quartet, Paganini, bach, Boccherini, keeping up my weekly live music streak! Laters, all, thanks Stork (rest of the show will be Monday office soundtrack)
	🥁 2:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Enjoy doc !
	2:57pm chresti: Enjoy, doc!
	2:59pm Stork: Have a great time, doc! See ya soon...
	3:00pm chresti: Wow, Toshiko is still with us! Born in 1929.
	3:00pm Stork: Anybody cath that quote: I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm?
	🥁 3:05pm Ivan from Woodbridge: Every so often I hear jazz that makes me think that I should be listening to more jazz.
	3:06pm I k e: Dig it.
	3:06pm adamdoesit: Stork, I missed it, though funnily enough I was humming it earlier, like it was St. Thomas or something.
	3:06pm Stork: Yeah - how bout that, chresti? Two over-90 year old pianists being celebrated on the same day: Emahoy by Jeff on the D-O program, and Toshiko here.
	3:09pm doctorjazz: You should, Ivan! Heading out soon, catching a bit more. Have to say, haven't listened to a lot of Akiyoshi, look forward to catching up tomorrow!
	3:09pm Stork: Ho ho, Ivan from Woodbridge! Hail to thee, your Ike-ness!
	3:12pm adamdoesit: Cannonball Adderley's voice is so familiar to me; I think that's the first time I heard brother Nat's.
	3:13pm Stork: Me too. adamdoesit
	3:14pm adamdoesit: That's some deliciously floopy clarinet, too.
	3:15pm Stork: Blow Doc S, blow!
	3:16pm doctorjazz: Johnny Carson's sidekick, huh? That blast of notes struck me as well! OK, really going, bye!
	3:16pm Stork: Her solo here just BOINS!!
	3:21pm Stork: This is the most passionate solo I've ever heard her play.
	3:33pm Doug Schulkind: Just got back from seeing West Side Story. I will spare you my review, but I did weep through the whole thing.
	🥁 3:34pm WR: Strive for Jive Options, Tales of a Courtesan, yes the delicate Japanese female petals sounding here.

	🥁 3:37pm WR: while may not be Mingus on bass, that was him announcing.
	3:38pm Stork: Yep, sure was, WR. Not sure who's actually playing bass, though.
	3:40pm Stork: Yikes, that's some stank audio quality. Great music, though!
	3:44pm johnec: What’s up Stork?!No worries, I’m smoking some stank so it all evens out
	3:46pm Stork: May your stank always be krunk, johnec. Take a hit for me.

	3:48pm Stork: HEY ALL YE TENDER YOUNG CLUBBERS! THANKS SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE TONIGHT! HOPE YOU ENJOYED. DO COME BY NEXT WEEK FOR GITS AND SHIGGLES. XOXOXO- Storkie-Boy
	3:50pm TDK60: Gracias, Stork.

Listener comments!
	11:59am hyde: hiya
	🥁 12:01pm listener james from westwood: Good Sunday, Stork and all!
	12:03pm Jeff Golick: Who gets tired of hot dogs?
	12:03pm doctorjazz: Helo, Stork and Storkers!
	12:04pm Stork: james, Jeff and doctorjazz!! Geddinheah!!
	12:05pm adamdoesit: Hello Stork and cicognescenti! I'm looking forward to some Bob Dorough and Saint Frank in between the Toshikos and the Tonys. Barkeep, I'm making up for lost time after missing last week, so mix me the usual double, and double it!
	12:05pm chresti: Greetings Stork and swells! I want to see the bright lights,
	🥁 12:06pm listener james from westwood: From the extended show opening, now that I've thought to Google: 45 E. 64th St's near Park Ave. Nice digs.
	12:06pm Stork: Greetings, chresti! And throw your money around? ;)
	12:07pm Stork: adamdoesit is in the house! Back down to the basement for an extra case!!
	12:07pm rw: Hey hey.
	12:08pm TDK60: Hi Stork.
	🥁 12:08pm redkayak: Happy Sunday all :)
	12:10pm chresti: That's right Stork, I have my cookie tin full of pennies with me.
	12:10pm doctorjazz: The background on the Love to keep me warm was very cool!
	🥁 12:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Anthony Tillmon Williams December 12, 1945 – February 23, 1997 ⦿Sun in ♐︎Sagittarius, Year of Wood 🐓Rooster
	12:14pm Stork: @chresti - a whole can?! here you'll live like royalty.
	12:17pm Franco Twinkie: Hello Mr. Stork.
	12:17pm Stork: Hey, Franco Twinkie!
	12:22pm hyde: this is a cool record
	12:23pm listening out there: Howdy hi…
	🥁 12:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ' Williams first gained fame in the band of trumpeter Miles Davis and pioneered jazz fusion. He was inducted into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 1986. During his lifetime, music critic Robert Christgau described Williams as "probably the best drummer in the world". '
	12:25pm Jeff Golick: Love Tony Williams, tho I have a hard time wrapping my head around his two Blue Note leader LPs, Life Time and Spring. They are slippery.
	12:27pm Stork: Agree, JG- Life Time took me a bit of getting used to.
	12:27pm TDK60: Hi Revrab. You lost wi-fi a lot recently?
	12:30pm Stork: Hiya hey, RevRabb hyde, and TDK, listening out there, !! And everyone else I've so callously ignored.
	🥁 12:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mitch Mitchell said Hendrix jammed w/ TonyWilliams - & 'it didn't work out too well'. Yeah TDK60 my mainlain I was leaching in my trap is Off. WiFis from Gym across the road happens to be strong enuff right now if I don't ask too much from it...
	12:36pm Stork: too bad Hendrix and Williams didn't work it out. Just think...
	12:36pm adamdoesit: Flanagan, Carter, and Williams… the wallpaper is peeling, and the waiter has soup on his sleeve, but the rhythm section in this joint is pure class.
	12:37pm Stork: down at heel - that's our address, adamdoesit.
	🥁 12:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: www.facebook.com...
	12:45pm Listener Robert: Since you've been playing the longer clip for your intro, we can surmise more of what it's about. It doesn't contradict my previous assumption that Rick and his wife had recently taken opposite sides in the argument, but it adds more motivation than just a desire to needle her. She'd probably been complaining that he's a cheapskate, but now he has a reason to appear not to be one: business. She doesn't know he's meeting someone for business. The business -- what he's paying this guy for -- is presumably the main object of the play, but it will be augmented by contretemps when she figures out it was for a business meeting. Practically writes itself.
	12:49pm Stork: Spot on, Listener Robert! The only thing different is - she's his associate/confidante/girlfriend and not his wife. But great analysis! Somebody turns up dead after leaving the Stork Club that night - and Diamond investigates.
	12:50pm chresti: Those tricky business guys..
	12:51pm adamdoesit: Love your read, Listener Robert. Am I alone in hearing genuine affection in Rick's voice, maybe affection that he isn't yet willing to admit to himself?
	12:51pm TDK60: Did I miss it? But what is the name of the movie in the opening of show?
	12:53pm hyde: I keep hearing the clips Rex plays on Turner Classic. Maybe i'll catch the Stork Club intro sometime
	12:55pm Listener Robert: You're not alone, I think he's supposed to have genuine affection for her, because that's the way these things work in drama, and largely in real life as well. So I think he'll be bothered that she's miffed, even after he tells her, well, you knew what business I'm in, but then she'll notice some important clue that she'll threaten to withhold from him unless he makes some concession for the future. How serious she is about that threat will be up for the audience to decide.
	12:56pm Listener Robert: I don't think it's a movie, hyde. The way they're playing it sounds like a radio play.
	12:57pm hyde: @listener robery ah yeah, makes sense
	12:58pm Listener Robert: If it were a movie, it'd come off like that comedian who pretends to be a mime and says, "Here I am, pulling on this rope."
	12:58pm adamdoesit: Maybe at the Stork they'll bump into Nick and Nora Charles in the RomComNoir Extended Universe.
	12:59pm HyperDose: Hey Storkers =]
	🥁 1:00pm WR: hello Stork and drummer clubbers. Have been listening since the start.
	1:00pm TDK60: Radio play? There was a movie called Stork Club. DJ is busy, maybe he'll enlighten sooner or later...
	1:01pm hyde: actually, the last thing i heard randomly on TCM was a Dave the Spazz clip. "I made a big idiot of myself tonight. Worse than usual. I really bungled this one". It's from Where the Sidewalk Ends.
	1:02pm Stork: Right again, Listener Robert. It was a radio series in the fifties with William Powell as Detective Rick Diamond.
	1:03pm Listener Robert: I wish that universe crossed over into that of "J-Men Forever". Before New York City was destroyed as part of the double victory, that is.
	1:03pm Stork: And yeah, TDK60, there is a TERRIBLE movie called The Stork Club, with Betty Hutton. Just awful, but a lotta good sound bytes therefrom - I'll have to play more of them in future.
	1:04pm hyde: @Stork isn't it Dick Powell?
	1:04pm Stork: Hi there, Hyperdose!!
	1:04pm TDK60: Danke DJ. Now I go through life, less confused.
	1:04pm MarciB: Stork, just a thank you for making my Sundays so much better with your wonderful show!
	1:05pm Listener Robert: Seems I never miss a chance to point out that Phil Proctor praised Clay Pigeon's work on "Wake and Bake".
	1:05pm TDK60: Maybe I saw Stork Club on the Late Late Late show when I was a kid but memory fails.
	1:05pm Stork: Wynton kills on this.
	1:07pm hyde: Stork Club has Barry Fitzgerald in it, so it can't be all bad
	1:07pm Stork: Hey MarciB!! Thanks hugely! :)))))
	1:10pm Listener Robert: I'm also sure that in that radio play, they took full advantage of that phone number they gave out, for audience research.
	1:12pm Stork: They also give out what sounds like a real Manhattan address. Those were simpler times.
	1:14pm Stork: I always hear melodies when Tony W solos. Maybe it's all in my noggin...
	1:16pm Listener Robert: Simpler, hell, the address would've been in connection with promotion too.
	1:19pm Listener Robert: That may have been before the legal requirement to disclose paid promotions was enacted.
	1:22pm headcleaner: late to the party but glad to be here
	1:24pm Stork: headcleaner!! Great to see you. Has anyone ever told you your name would make a great cocktail name? Big licensing fees? Just sayin..
	1:37pm headcleaner: talk to my agent, Stork, we'll work out a licensing deal
	1:38pm Aitch: New to show. Liking what I'm hearing.
	1:39pm Stork: Welcome, Aitch!
	1:42pm headcleaner: If only my Dad had picked up this record (this was at the cusp of his peak listening years)
	🥁 1:42pm WR: Tony Williams is doing vocal on Where
	🥁 1:43pm WR: Aitch, up awful early today, hope all is well.
	1:44pm hyde: i need to revisit this record
	1:47pm Andrew Waterloo: It was nice fading back into this Tony Williams after a coffee run.
	1:57pm headcleaner: that's a beautiful album cover
	2:04pm Stork: Hey, Andrew Waterloo - welcome back
	🥁 2:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Toshiko Akiyoshi (秋吉敏子 or 穐吉敏子, Akiyoshi Toshiko, born 12 December 1929) ⦿Sun in ♐︎Sagittarius, Year of Earth 🐍Snake ...Not always enuff WiFis to both listen & Comment today - but enuff to listen this afternoon which I appreciate...
	🥁 2:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Petal a truly lovely flute piece / performance without being cloying - to expressive a positive as a negative, as I have a talent for...
	2:19pm Stork: Lew Tabackin is a really sensitive player who can play everything Toshiko can compose and throw at him.
	2:20pm Stork: Jimmy Knepper in the 'bone section!
	🥁 2:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Would a comparison to Gil Evans arranging (as a compliment) makes sense ? @ the same time with the Japanese expression - showing what an International language Jazz really is...
	2:28pm doctorjazz: Had to cut out for a bit, will catch some now, rest tomorrow in the archives.
	2:31pm Stork: OK Dr. J. Hope you can hang for a bit.
	2:31pm doctorjazz: This is purty!
	🥁 2:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Just beautiful.
	🥁 2:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...can't say a thing w/out typos ...sitting on the floor by the right window to get WiFis from across the road...
	2:42pm doctorjazz: And No Moon at All hits all the right Hard Bop notes (ahem, so to speak...). Getting some work done, great soundtrack!
	2:43pm Stork: Agree, doc. Grrrreat tune!
	2:44pm coelacanth∅: greetings Stork and all
	2:44pm adamdoesit: I like the boppish, small-group Toshiko. I've never really listened to her this way before. I'm more familiar with her big band contexts… and not even that familiar with those. This is very cool.
	2:45pm HyperDose: Happy you're here with us, RRN63
	2:47pm chresti: coel has a whole fleet of cool cars.
	2:49pm Stork: Hey, coel!! Hello Hyperdose!!
	🥁 2:49pm Ivan from Woodbridge: Another new svatar HyperDose, but still so “you” :)
	🥁 2:50pm Ivan from Woodbridge: *avatar
	2:50pm chresti: And HyperD has a fleet of cool avatars!
	2:52pm HyperDose: Haha I'm extremely indecisive, but manage to settle on a few from time to time. Been hectic with putting the finishing touches on the apt. Ikea sent the wrong dresser today, but we will persist!
	2:56pm doctorjazz: OK, off to hear some live chamber music (classical guitar and string quartet, Paganini, bach, Boccherini, keeping up my weekly live music streak! Laters, all, thanks Stork (rest of the show will be Monday office soundtrack)
	🥁 2:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Enjoy doc !
	2:57pm chresti: Enjoy, doc!
	2:59pm Stork: Have a great time, doc! See ya soon...
	3:00pm chresti: Wow, Toshiko is still with us! Born in 1929.
	3:00pm Stork: Anybody cath that quote: I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm?
	🥁 3:05pm Ivan from Woodbridge: Every so often I hear jazz that makes me think that I should be listening to more jazz.
	3:06pm I k e: Dig it.
	3:06pm adamdoesit: Stork, I missed it, though funnily enough I was humming it earlier, like it was St. Thomas or something.
	3:06pm Stork: Yeah - how bout that, chresti? Two over-90 year old pianists being celebrated on the same day: Emahoy by Jeff on the D-O program, and Toshiko here.
	3:09pm doctorjazz: You should, Ivan! Heading out soon, catching a bit more. Have to say, haven't listened to a lot of Akiyoshi, look forward to catching up tomorrow!
	3:09pm Stork: Ho ho, Ivan from Woodbridge! Hail to thee, your Ike-ness!
	3:12pm adamdoesit: Cannonball Adderley's voice is so familiar to me; I think that's the first time I heard brother Nat's.
	3:13pm Stork: Me too. adamdoesit
	3:14pm adamdoesit: That's some deliciously floopy clarinet, too.
	3:15pm Stork: Blow Doc S, blow!
	3:16pm doctorjazz: Johnny Carson's sidekick, huh? That blast of notes struck me as well! OK, really going, bye!

	3:38pm Stork: Yep, sure was, WR. Not sure who's actually playing bass, though.
	3:40pm Stork: Yikes, that's some stank audio quality. Great music, though!
	3:44pm johnec: What’s up Stork?!No worries, I’m smoking some stank so it all evens out
	3:46pm Stork: May your stank always be krunk, johnec. Take a hit for me.
