	12:15pm HyperDose: Good afternoon, comrades

	12:19pm doctorjazz: *many consider... COVID makes it's way into EVERYTHING!
	12:20pm Sem: DrJ: fyi "The pearl is both the traditional gift suggestion and the gemstone of the thirtieth anniversary so that seems to make some sort of pearl gift almost mandatory. Pearls have been popular since Roman times and are the only gem made by a living creature. It is said Cleopatra dissolved a pearl in wine and drank it to prove her love of Marc Antony."
	12:20pm rw: Franco, it cost me $89 to not quite fill my 15 gallon tank on Friday!
	12:20pm chresti: Happy 30th doc! Pearls are the traditional gift.
	12:21pm doctorjazz: @SEM-shhhhh, don't tell Susan...

	12:27pm Doug Schulkind: For those on Twitter, here's a photo of saxist Charles Lloyd visiting Ben Webster's gravesite in Copenhagen: shorturl.at...
	12:30pm chresti: As Sem said, better!
	12:32pm Stork: Heya, abbazabba - hey sem, hey rw!
	12:37pm doctorjazz: The Tatum Group Masterpieces are just that..
	🥁 12:39pm WR: Whoa whoa whoa, why you playing Billie on Sarah V's day. I'll be back, while the management considers it's reply, I'll be reading more of the info and witiscisms on today's OUT episode.
	🥁 12:41pm Michael 98145: Spring is bursting out all over
	12:42pm Stork: @WR Because Ben Webster is soloing on the track - besides, Sarah has no one to fear - not even Billie. How many singers can say that?
	12:44pm Stork: Hi, Michael 98145 - it is indeed on the burst.
	🥁 12:45pm WR: Well considered and replied Stork. I'll go attend to my kitchen cleanup duties now.
	12:46pm Stork: Bring Ben 'n Sarah along, WR.
	🥁 12:47pm WR: The stream follows me everywhere.
	🥁 12:49pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey Stork! I'm just tuning in now, and I'm looking forward to hearing the rest of the show. I'm very much in the mood for Ms. Vaughan's and Mr. Webster's music. Yay!
	12:50pm Stork: Wendy! Welcome! Glad you like! Hard not to, truth be told.
	🥁 1:07pm Michael 98145: Great tracks today. Of course.
	1:07pm TDK60: This music makes me speechless. That's why I'm not saying anything.
	🥁 1:09pm Wendy del Formaggio: "DJ Yaxalot." haha!
	🥁 1:16pm David (in London): All hail the mighty Stork! Afternoon groovers in the Club.
	1:17pm Doug Schulkind: Sagacious generally tops sebaceous, especially when oozing.
	1:18pm doctorjazz: Got to see Sarah once-she was my original love in jazz singers (found many others subsequently); she has just amazing chops; it's a bit of a cliche, but she really solos like another musician in the band.
	1:19pm chresti: Davidkins!
	1:20pm doctorjazz: Hi, David in London! (gravy is in the pot, now just has to simmer for a few hours...)
	1:20pm Franco Twinkie: My first year in college, Barney Bigard's grandson was in one of my classes. He was outed by our teacher who was a huge jazz fan. I had no idea who Barney Bigard was. I know now.
	1:20pm Stork: Dougie bringin' the news 'bout tha' ooze!!!

	🥁 1:21pm duke: Hello Hep Cats
	1:24pm Stork: duke!! David in London! Franco Twinkie! Barney Bigard rules!! Love all the Armstrong sides he did.
	1:27pm doctorjazz: Buster Moten, not a familiar name-related to the more well known Benny Moten (brother possibly, but not certain, could be more distantly related according to my Google search)
	1:30pm Funky16Corners: Hey Stork! Love Ben Webster!
	1:32pm doctorjazz: When you hear Ben Webster in his later years, it doesn't always sound like he should be nicknamed 'The Brute". But in his early years, taking Hawk's innovations and making them his own (and whenever he had a good mind to later), he could blow the roof off!
	1:35pm Jeff g. via app: Soulville!
	1:38pm Stork: Hey yo Funky16Corners!
	1:39pm Stork: Jeff G - gott love every track on this!
	1:43pm adamdoesit: Hello Stork and swells. I’ve been listening from outside since noon, but kept slipping and falling on all the honey fairly dripping off the bandstand and the sagacious gravy seeping out of the kitchen before I could get through the door. I’m just glad I made it before the waiter spilled some frim-fram sauce or I’d never have made it.
	1:47pm doctorjazz: In the forever dinner party of the gravy recipe, listening and doing my yoga...
	1:49pm doctorjazz: *forever simmer.,
	1:50pm Funky16Corners: I love this song. I have a great version by Bud Beiderbecke
	1:50pm doctorjazz: Mulligan/Webster, what a simpatico pairing!
	1:52pm Sem: Back from an extended garden reconnaissance w/ headphones on. Yo, David in LondonTown, and BiUK if still tuned in.
	1:52pm Stork: adamdoesit! The oleaginous shall inherit the earth!
	🥁 1:54pm Michael 98145: as always, greetings to our international clubbers
	1:56pm Stork: Welcome back, Sem.
	1:58pm Sem: Remarkable album cover for the Mulligan/Webster thing. Dirty hippie ere foreshadowing?
	1:58pm PaulRobeson1920: Good afternoon from Huntington, NY! Warm greetings all
	1:58pm Sem: era
	1:58pm Robm: Hello fellow stork club listeners
	1:59pm Funky16Corners: Who’s the vocalist on this Ellington?
	1:59pm adamdoesit: Seriously, though, I got going a little late, hit some traffic, and, were it not for the superlative smoothness of Ben Webster and the Divine Ms. Sarah, I don't know what would've become of me. Thank you, Herr Barkeep, and mazel tov Doc! Now to business: Glens Passaic all around!
	1:59pm doctorjazz: Ray Nance credited with vocals here online
	2:00pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Doc!
	2:01pm Stork: Thanks guys. I edited it out by mistake - shall replace
	🥁 2:03pm Michael 98145: wished i'd seen Ellington when he was traveling around the US of A
	2:06pm Funky16Corners: One of the greatest lyrics ever…
	2:06pm doctorjazz: What Funky16Corners said @2:06!
	2:08pm doctorjazz: I've always thought that in another world, Sarah could have been an opera singer, such amazing strength/control in a huge range (but, I'm totally uneducated opera technique)
	2:08pm Stork: I can hear Elaine Stritch singing the shit out of this.
	2:09pm adamdoesit: They say Strayhorn got the idea for "far too many through the day twelve o'clocktails" from spending an afternoon at the Stork.
	2:11pm Stork: Strayhorn is leading this show in assists. (hint: he ain't done yet)
	2:11pm Funky16Corners: Vaughan’s early 70s Mainstream stuff, covering a lot of contemporary pop and soul, is fantastic
	2:12pm PaulRobeson1920: @Sem @1:58: The Hip Pies are in part a return to an earlier pragmatism & progressive thought… the idea that yes this is the best of all possible worlds and American society is becoming a better place in which to live and we can make it so… pragmatic meaning some laws/ideas may have been relevant in the past but now are not serving the common good…. A Recalling +Rock&Roll baby 1920’s - aftermath of the 1st world war 1960’s the horror of the Korean & Vietnam War
	🥁 2:14pm Michael 98145: WWI got Europe's attention for sure
	2:23pm fred: Good afternoon Stork and patrons. Any Glen Passaic left in the hazmat section?
	2:26pm Stork: fred - suit up, lock down your visor and follow me to the containment area.
	2:26pm Sem: Drinking swill again, fred? Good to see you after some time, btw.
	2:34pm adamdoesit: Mini JATP jam session vibes.
	🥁 2:36pm David (in London): Good tartan trews Sarah is sporting there.
	🥁 2:36pm Wendy del Formaggio: For fans of "How High the Moon," I recommend the version on "Slim Gaillard Rides Again." Who knew this song was really about potato salad?!
	2:39pm doctorjazz: Isn't everything really about potato salad?
	2:40pm doctorjazz: (except all that is about cheese, of course)
	2:41pm adamdoesit: Around here, yes. I've seen the secret still in the basement. Pretty sure the Stork's is the only potato vodka also distilled from celery and mayonnaise.
	2:42pm doctorjazz: Older Sarah, still amazing vocal chops (this would have been around when I saw her)
	🥁 2:42pm Wendy del Formaggio: Doctor Jazz: Good point! If it's not about potato salad, it's about cheese, or it's just not worth it. Oh...now I want some potato salad...
	2:43pm doctorjazz: Hawk and his disciple (who took it a few steps further...)
	🥁 2:45pm David (in London): My chives have recently staged a stunning comeback from winter desolation, so I predict some quality potato salad in this house over the spring.
	2:46pm Sem: Hope springs eternal, DiL.
	2:47pm doctorjazz: Lovely melody (La Rosita)
	2:47pm Stork: Potatoes (the German national vegetable) have been inching up in price lately. Very unsettling. I need my Bratkartoffeln""
	2:48pm Stanley: Hello everyone. Lounging in my lounge wear, here. Relaxed and digging the sounds.
	2:48pm Stork: Agree, doc - Their harmony playing is so beautiful.
	2:49pm doctorjazz: What an odd, sparse arrangement on this Great Day...
	2:49pm adamdoesit: I love it when Sassy picks up the pace.
	2:49pm Stork: Stanley! Habbita babbita!
	🥁 2:51pm David (in London): Yo Stanloid.
	2:52pm Stork: Sarah is really at her best in combos - late night jams, little clubs - though she's hardly lacking in any situation.
	2:55pm Stanley: hi. David. Good to have the evening light and to be back in synch with FMU time.
	2:55pm Sem: I can picture Stanley in Hefner mode, PJs and robe, pipe rampant, a whisky within reach, stretched out on a circular waterbed made for half a dozen. Black silk sheets, 'natch.
	2:55pm Stork: Frank Butler - mighty tasty breaks!
	2:56pm adamdoesit: Agree, Stork. There, she's the most soulful, incisive and hard-swinging alto player, who just happens to play her own pipes for a horn.
	2:57pm Stanley: Sem. You forgot to mention the two blondes on each arm.
	2:58pm adamdoesit: Main Stem is a foxtrot. Who knew?
	2:58pm Stork: Ellington circa 1940 is just a mind-melt. Listen to these solos!
	2:59pm Stork: Perfectly said, adamdoesit! She plays a mean piano, too according to absolutely everyone.
	🥁 3:00pm David (in London): Stanley, I second that emotion. Hardly knew where I was these past two weeks.
	3:02pm adamdoesit: With Clifford Brown was the first Sarah album I fell for. It's still my favorite. Going with the alternate takes, Stork? I like it.
	3:02pm Sem: Was keeping that on the down low, on a need-to-know basis only, Still, happy trails, Stanley.
	3:05pm Stork: Don't think is an alt take, adamdoesit - but can there be such a thing with Sarah and Clifford Brown?
	3:07pm adamdoesit: Stork, it's funny, I hear it a little differently in memory; but memory's bitrate is notoriously low. And, I mean, the way she bridges from "reprise" to "I"… it just slays me.
	3:10pm fred: @adamdoesit: Also, take into account that Glen Passaic has been linked to memory issues
	3:11pm adamdoesit: fred, have we met? Your name is unfamiliar. Also, what's Glen Passaic? Also, I'll have another. Will you join me?
	3:14pm fred: @adamdoesit: Of course, I'm always eager to try a drink I've never had before, or even heard about
	3:16pm adamdoesit: fred, cheers then! Hey, bartender! Two Glen Passaics, for me and my new friend here. Also, where the hell are we?
	3:21pm Stork: If they ever get around to cleaning up the Passaic, we are gonna be screwed. The flavor is all about the dioxin, after all.
	3:23pm Listener Robert: Does Glen Passaic count as clear liquid preparatory to the colonoscopy I'm getting Tuesday?
	3:27pm Stork: I don't think you'll HAVE a colon after a weekend with Glenn P.
	3:29pm adamdoesit: True, Stork. I've been drinking the stuff for at least five minutes, and all I've got left is a semicolon. If I drink any more, I'll slip into a comma.
	3:29pm Stork: Hey, just in case anyone's interested: in the photo gallery above, there's a blurry one of Webster hugging ... John Coltrane.
	🥁 3:31pm David (in London): Does Glen Passaic combust spontaneously as you try to drink it?
	3:32pm Stork: David (in London): - it's recommended you don't try to drink it. I usually huff it.
	3:33pm Sem: I believe Le Petomane made a career out of the, ahem, by-products of ingested GP.
	3:35pm doctorjazz: Webster and Coltrane were both in Johnny Hodges band, wonder if they spent time there together...
	3:37pm doctorjazz: Some nice CD reissues pictured, XRCD's, Mobile Fidelity, does this Audionerd's heart good!
	3:41pm Listener Gregory: An argument can be made that this is Sarah’s greatest performance. (Clowns)
	3:42pm doctorjazz: Also recorded late in Sassy's career (1986), you can hear her vibrato a bit less tight (which seems to happen to singers as they age).
	3:43pm Stork: Listener Gregory - I think so now, but when I hear her next tune, I may change my mind.
	3:43pm Stork: Not enough harpsichord in jazz.
	3:47pm doctorjazz: Did Rudy Van Gelder have a harpsichord handy at his Englewood Cliffs studio, ya think?
	3:48pm doctorjazz: Will give thanks slightly early (have to pick up daughter from train), wonderful Birthday tribute to 2 greats, Stork! Outdid yourself! Laters, all!
	🥁 3:50pm WR: That Mulligan-Webster album cover looks like late period cubist Easter parade.
	3:51pm doctorjazz: Mulligan had a knack for playing the perfect counterpoint below whomever he was dueting with, just amazing!
	3:51pm Stork: Dear dear Clubbies ... thanks for your sweet generosity that got us over the hump for yet another year. These sounds were a balm for me tonight - hope you enjoyed - I'm filling in for Tony Coulter this Tuesday noon to 3 EDT - c'mon over!! Laterz!!!
	3:52pm Stork: Totally agree, doc - Mulligan is a marvel.
	3:52pm doctorjazz: I note the Phil Schapp liner note credit-I think Stork has (thankfully) taken over responsibility for birthday broadcasts for the greats from the late Phil Schapp!
	3:53pm Stork: I always like to pay trib to Phil Schaap - for all his faults he was a cultural treasure.
	🥁 3:55pm David (in London): The loss of a week of Coulter would normally be a tragedy, but a Stork fill-in makes it a hot date instead. Thanks Stork.
	3:55pm adamdoesit: Thanks for the tunes, Stork. Good to see you all. Hey, btw, there's a guy in the parking lot who says he wants his harpsichord back -- says his name is Joe Lewis or something. Schaap lives!
	3:56pm Listener Gregory: I unfortunately had to miss the middle three hours, but the part I heard was tremendous. Thanks, Herr Stork.
	3:56pm PaulRobeson1920: : ) THANKS STORK
	3:57pm Sem: Happy for the rest of the day, thanks to the Stork and the Sarah. Stay well, all, see you laters.
	3:57pm Sem: ...or latkes.
	3:59pm StringOFperils: Thank you for making the music machine go around, Stork!!
	4:00pm Stanley: Thanks Sir Stork
	🥁 4:00pm WR: Thank you Stork!
	4:00pm chresti: Thank you Stork!
	4:01pm Stork: Hey, StringOFperils: - nice to still be going around!
	4:03pm Stork: Thanks so much Sem, Paul Roebeson192 - Listener Gregory and all others I might have missed... see ya Tuesday if ya can.

	12:13pm Franco Twinkie: Back when gas was forty cents a gallon, Stork?
	12:14pm Sem: Ah, an afternoon w/ Princess Sarah. Your Storkness, I salute you. Not so familiar w/ Mr. Webster but know I will be by the end of the show, Who do I have to know to get a Sidecar in this joint?
	12:14pm chresti: My driver insists on getting here early to avoid the throngs at the door, Stork.
	12:15pm HyperDose: Good afternoon, comrades
	12:16pm doctorjazz: Tricky Sam Nanton opening up...
	12:17pm chresti: Afternoon from the morning, HyperD!
	12:17pm rw: Howdy! Happy anniversary, docjazz!
	12:18pm doctorjazz: The Blanton Webster Band, 1938-1941, many COVID-19 a peak Ellington period!
	12:19pm doctorjazz: *many consider... COVID makes it's way into EVERYTHING!
	12:20pm Sem: DrJ: fyi "The pearl is both the traditional gift suggestion and the gemstone of the thirtieth anniversary so that seems to make some sort of pearl gift almost mandatory. Pearls have been popular since Roman times and are the only gem made by a living creature. It is said Cleopatra dissolved a pearl in wine and drank it to prove her love of Marc Antony."
	12:20pm rw: Franco, it cost me $89 to not quite fill my 15 gallon tank on Friday!
	12:20pm chresti: Happy 30th doc! Pearls are the traditional gift.
	12:21pm doctorjazz: @SEM-shhhhh, don't tell Susan...
	12:21pm Sem: Great minds think alike, chresti. And as with all sayings, there is a corollary: fools seldom differ :/
	12:22pm abbazabba: Hello Stork and all assembled. Happy Anniversary Doctor Jazz!
	12:22pm doctorjazz: I thought the perfect gift for our 30th would be new speakers...
	12:24pm rw: https://pearlacoustics.com/
	12:25pm doctorjazz: @rw, perfect!
	12:27pm Doug Schulkind: For those on Twitter, here's a photo of saxist Charles Lloyd visiting Ben Webster's gravesite in Copenhagen: shorturl.at...
	12:30pm chresti: As Sem said, better!
	12:32pm Stork: Heya, abbazabba - hey sem, hey rw!
	12:37pm doctorjazz: The Tatum Group Masterpieces are just that..
	🥁 12:39pm WR: Whoa whoa whoa, why you playing Billie on Sarah V's day. I'll be back, while the management considers it's reply, I'll be reading more of the info and witiscisms on today's OUT episode.
	🥁 12:41pm Michael 98145: Spring is bursting out all over
	12:42pm Stork: @WR Because Ben Webster is soloing on the track - besides, Sarah has no one to fear - not even Billie. How many singers can say that?
	12:44pm Stork: Hi, Michael 98145 - it is indeed on the burst.
	🥁 12:45pm WR: Well considered and replied Stork. I'll go attend to my kitchen cleanup duties now.
	12:46pm Stork: Bring Ben 'n Sarah along, WR.
	🥁 12:47pm WR: The stream follows me everywhere.
	🥁 12:49pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey Stork! I'm just tuning in now, and I'm looking forward to hearing the rest of the show. I'm very much in the mood for Ms. Vaughan's and Mr. Webster's music. Yay!
	12:50pm Stork: Wendy! Welcome! Glad you like! Hard not to, truth be told.
	🥁 1:07pm Michael 98145: Great tracks today. Of course.
	1:07pm TDK60: This music makes me speechless. That's why I'm not saying anything.
	🥁 1:09pm Wendy del Formaggio: "DJ Yaxalot." haha!
	🥁 1:16pm David (in London): All hail the mighty Stork! Afternoon groovers in the Club.
	1:17pm Doug Schulkind: Sagacious generally tops sebaceous, especially when oozing.
	1:18pm doctorjazz: Got to see Sarah once-she was my original love in jazz singers (found many others subsequently); she has just amazing chops; it's a bit of a cliche, but she really solos like another musician in the band.
	1:19pm chresti: Davidkins!
	1:20pm doctorjazz: Hi, David in London! (gravy is in the pot, now just has to simmer for a few hours...)
	1:20pm Franco Twinkie: My first year in college, Barney Bigard's grandson was in one of my classes. He was outed by our teacher who was a huge jazz fan. I had no idea who Barney Bigard was. I know now.
	1:20pm Stork: Dougie bringin' the news 'bout tha' ooze!!!
	🥁 1:20pm Wendy del Formaggio: All the ooze that's fit to print.
	🥁 1:21pm David (in London): Chrestikins! doctorjazz. TDK, WR, Doug, Michael, Franco, Wendy. Ahoy all. (All hail the Semulator if he still has his ears / eyes on)
	🥁 1:21pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hello David in London!
	🥁 1:21pm duke: Hello Hep Cats
	1:24pm Stork: duke!! David in London! Franco Twinkie! Barney Bigard rules!! Love all the Armstrong sides he did.
	1:27pm doctorjazz: Buster Moten, not a familiar name-related to the more well known Benny Moten (brother possibly, but not certain, could be more distantly related according to my Google search)
	1:30pm Funky16Corners: Hey Stork! Love Ben Webster!
	1:32pm doctorjazz: When you hear Ben Webster in his later years, it doesn't always sound like he should be nicknamed 'The Brute". But in his early years, taking Hawk's innovations and making them his own (and whenever he had a good mind to later), he could blow the roof off!
	1:35pm Jeff g. via app: Soulville!
	1:38pm Stork: Hey yo Funky16Corners!
	1:39pm Stork: Jeff G - gott love every track on this!
	1:43pm adamdoesit: Hello Stork and swells. I’ve been listening from outside since noon, but kept slipping and falling on all the honey fairly dripping off the bandstand and the sagacious gravy seeping out of the kitchen before I could get through the door. I’m just glad I made it before the waiter spilled some frim-fram sauce or I’d never have made it.
	1:47pm doctorjazz: In the forever dinner party of the gravy recipe, listening and doing my yoga...
	1:49pm doctorjazz: *forever simmer.,
	1:50pm Funky16Corners: I love this song. I have a great version by Bud Beiderbecke
	1:50pm doctorjazz: Mulligan/Webster, what a simpatico pairing!
	1:52pm Sem: Back from an extended garden reconnaissance w/ headphones on. Yo, David in LondonTown, and BiUK if still tuned in.
	1:52pm Stork: adamdoesit! The oleaginous shall inherit the earth!
	🥁 1:54pm Michael 98145: as always, greetings to our international clubbers
	1:56pm Stork: Welcome back, Sem.
	1:58pm Sem: Remarkable album cover for the Mulligan/Webster thing. Dirty hippie ere foreshadowing?
	1:58pm PaulRobeson1920: Good afternoon from Huntington, NY! Warm greetings all
	1:58pm Sem: era
	1:58pm Robm: Hello fellow stork club listeners
	1:59pm Funky16Corners: Who’s the vocalist on this Ellington?
	1:59pm adamdoesit: Seriously, though, I got going a little late, hit some traffic, and, were it not for the superlative smoothness of Ben Webster and the Divine Ms. Sarah, I don't know what would've become of me. Thank you, Herr Barkeep, and mazel tov Doc! Now to business: Glens Passaic all around!
	1:59pm doctorjazz: Ray Nance credited with vocals here online
	2:00pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Doc!
	2:01pm Stork: Thanks guys. I edited it out by mistake - shall replace
	🥁 2:03pm Michael 98145: wished i'd seen Ellington when he was traveling around the US of A
	2:06pm Funky16Corners: One of the greatest lyrics ever…
	2:06pm doctorjazz: What Funky16Corners said @2:06!
	2:08pm doctorjazz: I've always thought that in another world, Sarah could have been an opera singer, such amazing strength/control in a huge range (but, I'm totally uneducated opera technique)
	2:08pm Stork: I can hear Elaine Stritch singing the shit out of this.
	2:09pm adamdoesit: They say Strayhorn got the idea for "far too many through the day twelve o'clocktails" from spending an afternoon at the Stork.
	2:11pm Stork: Strayhorn is leading this show in assists. (hint: he ain't done yet)
	2:11pm Funky16Corners: Vaughan’s early 70s Mainstream stuff, covering a lot of contemporary pop and soul, is fantastic
	2:12pm PaulRobeson1920: @Sem @1:58: The Hip Pies are in part a return to an earlier pragmatism & progressive thought… the idea that yes this is the best of all possible worlds and American society is becoming a better place in which to live and we can make it so… pragmatic meaning some laws/ideas may have been relevant in the past but now are not serving the common good…. A Recalling +Rock&Roll baby 1920’s - aftermath of the 1st world war 1960’s the horror of the Korean & Vietnam War
	🥁 2:14pm Michael 98145: WWI got Europe's attention for sure
	2:23pm fred: Good afternoon Stork and patrons. Any Glen Passaic left in the hazmat section?
	2:26pm Stork: fred - suit up, lock down your visor and follow me to the containment area.
	2:26pm Sem: Drinking swill again, fred? Good to see you after some time, btw.
	2:34pm adamdoesit: Mini JATP jam session vibes.
	🥁 2:36pm David (in London): Good tartan trews Sarah is sporting there.
	🥁 2:36pm Wendy del Formaggio: For fans of "How High the Moon," I recommend the version on "Slim Gaillard Rides Again." Who knew this song was really about potato salad?!
	2:39pm doctorjazz: Isn't everything really about potato salad?
	2:40pm doctorjazz: (except all that is about cheese, of course)
	2:41pm adamdoesit: Around here, yes. I've seen the secret still in the basement. Pretty sure the Stork's is the only potato vodka also distilled from celery and mayonnaise.
	2:42pm doctorjazz: Older Sarah, still amazing vocal chops (this would have been around when I saw her)
	🥁 2:42pm Wendy del Formaggio: Doctor Jazz: Good point! If it's not about potato salad, it's about cheese, or it's just not worth it. Oh...now I want some potato salad...
	2:43pm doctorjazz: Hawk and his disciple (who took it a few steps further...)
	🥁 2:45pm David (in London): My chives have recently staged a stunning comeback from winter desolation, so I predict some quality potato salad in this house over the spring.
	2:46pm Sem: Hope springs eternal, DiL.
	2:47pm doctorjazz: Lovely melody (La Rosita)
	2:47pm Stork: Potatoes (the German national vegetable) have been inching up in price lately. Very unsettling. I need my Bratkartoffeln""
	2:48pm Stanley: Hello everyone. Lounging in my lounge wear, here. Relaxed and digging the sounds.
	2:48pm Stork: Agree, doc - Their harmony playing is so beautiful.
	2:49pm doctorjazz: What an odd, sparse arrangement on this Great Day...
	2:49pm adamdoesit: I love it when Sassy picks up the pace.
	2:49pm Stork: Stanley! Habbita babbita!
	🥁 2:51pm David (in London): Yo Stanloid.
	2:52pm Stork: Sarah is really at her best in combos - late night jams, little clubs - though she's hardly lacking in any situation.
	2:55pm Stanley: hi. David. Good to have the evening light and to be back in synch with FMU time.
	2:55pm Sem: I can picture Stanley in Hefner mode, PJs and robe, pipe rampant, a whisky within reach, stretched out on a circular waterbed made for half a dozen. Black silk sheets, 'natch.
	2:55pm Stork: Frank Butler - mighty tasty breaks!
	2:56pm adamdoesit: Agree, Stork. There, she's the most soulful, incisive and hard-swinging alto player, who just happens to play her own pipes for a horn.
	2:57pm Stanley: Sem. You forgot to mention the two blondes on each arm.
	2:58pm adamdoesit: Main Stem is a foxtrot. Who knew?
	2:58pm Stork: Ellington circa 1940 is just a mind-melt. Listen to these solos!
	2:59pm Stork: Perfectly said, adamdoesit! She plays a mean piano, too according to absolutely everyone.
	🥁 3:00pm David (in London): Stanley, I second that emotion. Hardly knew where I was these past two weeks.
	3:02pm adamdoesit: With Clifford Brown was the first Sarah album I fell for. It's still my favorite. Going with the alternate takes, Stork? I like it.
	3:02pm Sem: Was keeping that on the down low, on a need-to-know basis only, Still, happy trails, Stanley.
	3:05pm Stork: Don't think is an alt take, adamdoesit - but can there be such a thing with Sarah and Clifford Brown?
	3:07pm adamdoesit: Stork, it's funny, I hear it a little differently in memory; but memory's bitrate is notoriously low. And, I mean, the way she bridges from "reprise" to "I"… it just slays me.
	3:10pm fred: @adamdoesit: Also, take into account that Glen Passaic has been linked to memory issues
	3:11pm adamdoesit: fred, have we met? Your name is unfamiliar. Also, what's Glen Passaic? Also, I'll have another. Will you join me?
	3:14pm fred: @adamdoesit: Of course, I'm always eager to try a drink I've never had before, or even heard about
	3:16pm adamdoesit: fred, cheers then! Hey, bartender! Two Glen Passaics, for me and my new friend here. Also, where the hell are we?
	3:21pm Stork: If they ever get around to cleaning up the Passaic, we are gonna be screwed. The flavor is all about the dioxin, after all.
	3:23pm Listener Robert: Does Glen Passaic count as clear liquid preparatory to the colonoscopy I'm getting Tuesday?
	3:27pm Stork: I don't think you'll HAVE a colon after a weekend with Glenn P.
	3:29pm adamdoesit: True, Stork. I've been drinking the stuff for at least five minutes, and all I've got left is a semicolon. If I drink any more, I'll slip into a comma.
	3:29pm Stork: Hey, just in case anyone's interested: in the photo gallery above, there's a blurry one of Webster hugging ... John Coltrane.
	🥁 3:31pm David (in London): Does Glen Passaic combust spontaneously as you try to drink it?
	3:32pm Stork: David (in London): - it's recommended you don't try to drink it. I usually huff it.
	3:33pm Sem: I believe Le Petomane made a career out of the, ahem, by-products of ingested GP.
	3:35pm doctorjazz: Webster and Coltrane were both in Johnny Hodges band, wonder if they spent time there together...
	3:37pm doctorjazz: Some nice CD reissues pictured, XRCD's, Mobile Fidelity, does this Audionerd's heart good!
	3:41pm Listener Gregory: An argument can be made that this is Sarah’s greatest performance. (Clowns)
	3:42pm doctorjazz: Also recorded late in Sassy's career (1986), you can hear her vibrato a bit less tight (which seems to happen to singers as they age).
	3:43pm Stork: Listener Gregory - I think so now, but when I hear her next tune, I may change my mind.
	3:43pm Stork: Not enough harpsichord in jazz.
	3:47pm doctorjazz: Did Rudy Van Gelder have a harpsichord handy at his Englewood Cliffs studio, ya think?
	3:48pm doctorjazz: Will give thanks slightly early (have to pick up daughter from train), wonderful Birthday tribute to 2 greats, Stork! Outdid yourself! Laters, all!
	🥁 3:50pm WR: That Mulligan-Webster album cover looks like late period cubist Easter parade.
	3:51pm doctorjazz: Mulligan had a knack for playing the perfect counterpoint below whomever he was dueting with, just amazing!
	3:51pm Stork: Dear dear Clubbies ... thanks for your sweet generosity that got us over the hump for yet another year. These sounds were a balm for me tonight - hope you enjoyed - I'm filling in for Tony Coulter this Tuesday noon to 3 EDT - c'mon over!! Laterz!!!
	3:52pm Stork: Totally agree, doc - Mulligan is a marvel.
	3:52pm doctorjazz: I note the Phil Schapp liner note credit-I think Stork has (thankfully) taken over responsibility for birthday broadcasts for the greats from the late Phil Schapp!
	3:53pm Stork: I always like to pay trib to Phil Schaap - for all his faults he was a cultural treasure.
	🥁 3:55pm David (in London): The loss of a week of Coulter would normally be a tragedy, but a Stork fill-in makes it a hot date instead. Thanks Stork.
	3:55pm adamdoesit: Thanks for the tunes, Stork. Good to see you all. Hey, btw, there's a guy in the parking lot who says he wants his harpsichord back -- says his name is Joe Lewis or something. Schaap lives!
	3:56pm Listener Gregory: I unfortunately had to miss the middle three hours, but the part I heard was tremendous. Thanks, Herr Stork.
	3:56pm PaulRobeson1920: : ) THANKS STORK
	3:57pm Sem: Happy for the rest of the day, thanks to the Stork and the Sarah. Stay well, all, see you laters.
	3:57pm Sem: ...or latkes.
	3:59pm StringOFperils: Thank you for making the music machine go around, Stork!!
	4:00pm Stanley: Thanks Sir Stork
	🥁 4:00pm WR: Thank you Stork!
	4:00pm chresti: Thank you Stork!
	4:01pm Stork: Hey, StringOFperils: - nice to still be going around!
	4:03pm Stork: Thanks so much Sem, Paul Roebeson192 - Listener Gregory and all others I might have missed... see ya Tuesday if ya can.
