	12:05pm HyperDose: Hey engineer extraordinaire, Irene! 😊
	12:07pm Peter K.: I had forgotten what a beautiful song "Pleasures of the Harbor" is!
	♥ 12:08pm Brian in UK: Irene, the strings on Pleasure sounds much more forward than on my old A&M copy.
	♥ 12:09pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi David (in London).
	♥ 12:09pm Andrew in Toronto: That`s true Sean. Just email me to set something up.
	♥ 12:13pm Irene Trudel: Hey Hyperdose, Peter and UKBrian!
	12:15pm TDK60: Hi Irene. I missed Phil..
	🥁 ♥ 12:20pm TonyR: It's a McGasko-Trudel kinda day. I like it.
	♥ 12:20pm David (in London): Hey TDK.
	🥁 ♥ 12:21pm TonyR: McGasko did a generous Henske set. DIdn't know of her before today. (If I had a nickel for every passing great I didn't know of without WFMU...)
	♥ 12:21pm Sean in Bristol UK: Hey TDK, Hyperdose, TonyR, Brian in UK
	12:22pm TDK60: Hiya David, Sean.
	♥ 12:23pm Irene Trudel: Hi TDK60! There's always the archives. UKBrian, the version of Pleasures I played came from a best of compilation, so maybe there was some remastering involved.
	♥ 12:23pm Sean in Bristol UK: Splendid, splendid set to get the proceedings of this most awesome programme going, Irene
	♥ 12:25pm Irene Trudel: And TonyR, thought I needed to mention Judy's passing as well. A couple of birthdays to acknowledge in today's show too.
	12:28pm Peter K.: I would say this is a magnificent first set -- but that would be stating the obvious, wouldn't it? Irene's sets are never less than magnificent. (Some are inevitably better than others, though. This one is transcendent.)
	♥ 12:29pm doctorjazz: My man, Abdullah Ibrahim, love his music, seen him more times than I can count! Hi Irene and all you out there!
	♥ 12:30pm Irene Trudel: Aw, thanks Peter and Sean! Glad to drop in a little Abdullah, doctorjazz.
	♥ 12:31pm unpopularfred: Is that the sadly, recently late Ron Miles on trumpet?
	♥ 12:32pm Sean in Bristol UK: Doctorjazz, how are you,sir?
	♥ 12:34pm Irene Trudel: unpopularfred, it is Ron Miles. Didn't know about his passing. This death thing is a little too much sometimes...
	12:35pm David in London: Hey doctorjazz.
	♥ 12:37pm doctorjazz: Hi David, Sean, you other hipsters!
	♥ 12:48pm Michael 98145: Healthy Monday, Everyone
	♥ 12:49pm doctorjazz: Wasn't Frisell just in concert in the NYC area?
	♥ 12:50pm Michael 98145: Rhino on the loose www.bos-art.com...
	♥ 12:59pm Irene Trudel: Same to you, Michael! doctorjazz, it think Bill was here recently. I know of a show he's doing in NYC mid-June but can't mention details yet (something I'm involved with).
	♥ 12:59pm doctorjazz: Is he on cello?
	♥ 1:00pm steveo: [vigorous applause]
	♥ 1:03pm Irene Trudel: Ron was on piccolo bass for that last one. And a few hand claps for joining us, steveo!
	1:04pm Peter K.: Doctorjazz, he was playing piccolo bass on that track (hence the name of the album). If Wikipedia is to be believed, that's a bass that "has been tuned to a higher frequency, usually one octave higher than conventional bass tuning." The bassist in this quartet was Buster Williams.
	♥ 1:04pm steveo: oh yes, hello :)
	♥ 1:06pm doctorjazz: Saw this Hall/Carter duet years back, they had a regular gig in some West Village restaurant.
	♥ 1:07pm doctorjazz: Thanks, Peter!
	♥ 1:11pm zzz: hi Irene and all! just signing on, when i see a playlist like this for someone who's been around as long as Ron Carter I get a little worried, happy to see it was his 85th bday a couple days ago!! sounded like there was a little bass lick earlier in "a small ballad" that was sampled in a familiar hiphop tune, gonna give it a look to see
	1:12pm Mark R: Such beautiful sounds on this warm, sunny May afternoon. Thanks for providing the perfect soundtrack, Irene
	♥ 1:21pm Irene Trudel: Thanks zzz and Mark R. Just giving a little love to Ron for his birthday last week.
	♥ 1:21pm doctorjazz: What zzz said @1:11-always get nervous when I see an artist featured, nice to have a birthday celebration with NO bad news attached!
	🥁 ♥ 1:24pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): hey Irene, hi, palz!
	♥ 1:25pm Sean in Bristol UK: Hey Baba Bee
	1:26pm David in London: Mx Beekins! Ahoy.
	🥁 ♥ 1:26pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): hello, Sean, hope you are well today!
	🥁 ♥ 1:26pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Davidkins! Well met!
	♥ 1:28pm Sean in Bristol UK: Baba Bee, if I can get an avatar of my pup, Lola dancing in the theme of your dancing dude I am a happy chap. This will be my future project!
	1:28pm HyperDose: MxBB! :D
	1:29pm Peter K.: The booklet notes make it very hard to figure out, but the pianist on "A Small Ballad" is actually Bob James. I think.
	♥ 1:32pm Michael 98145: enjoying this Southwest soothing moment
	🥁 ♥ 1:32pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): oh, no, Bryce! I am sure the WFMU community will do all we can to help him.
	♥ 1:33pm Sean in Bristol UK: NHS, under pressure but they have done a wonderful job
	♥ 1:33pm zzz: HBD to the wonderful Carla Bley!!!
	♥ 1:34pm zzz: love her and love that this tribute went straight to Musique Mechanique out the gates, prob my fav album of hers
	♥ 1:35pm doctorjazz: Carla Bley-another all time fave, hitting on all cylinders, Irene! (This is the album with the "vinyl skip" written into the score... Ahh, there it is!
	1:35pm Mark R: I must confess I was a little nervous, too, although I was aware he had a recent birthday. I read somewhere that he's appeared on something like 400 records
	♥ 1:36pm doctorjazz: She was such a card... 😉
	♥ 1:36pm Irene Trudel: Here's a link to help DJ Bryce with medical expenses: www.gofundme.com...
	1:37pm Mark R: Not to hijack the thread, but how sad it is that Bryce needs a Go-Fund-Me to pay his medical bills when every other civilized country in the world...ah fuck it.
	♥ 1:37pm Michael 98145: Good to see 124 folks chipping in
	🥁 ♥ 1:38pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Thanks, Irene! It sounds like such an awful accident.
	🥁 ♥ 1:38pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Mark R, I hear ya (from the choir!)
	🥁 ♥ 1:39pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): ha ha ha Carla Bley BTW!!! Love this!!!
	♥ 1:39pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Good morning-ish, Irene!
	♥ 1:41pm Sean in Bristol UK: S, M & S, salutations
	🥁 ♥ 1:44pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Seriously, Bryce's show is probably my most returned to the archives to hear show on WFMU. I just saw a live performance by Pandit Krishna Bhatt and have so much more appreciation for Indian classical music becasue of Bryce's program.
	♥ 1:44pm doctorjazz: Early Bley albums are great (I've read interviews with her where she disparages them, but I love them).
	♥ 1:44pm Irene Trudel: That "skip" is even funnier on CD! People who bought vinyl back in the day must've thought it was a defect.
	♥ 1:45pm Irene Trudel: Hi Mx. Baba Bee and Summer and Michael and Sylvia! Agreed-- Bryce has some unusual and unique tastes in sounds.
	♥ 1:45pm Michael 98145: @Mark R, i share your disgust. I don't come from wealth.
	♥ 1:46pm Sean in Bristol UK: Carla Bley, Marvellous
	1:47pm David in London: Hey S&M&S.
	♥ 1:47pm steveo: good stufff
	♥ 1:48pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Hi, Sean!
	♥ 1:48pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Hi, David!
	♥ 1:48pm Irene Trudel: Mark R, it truly is disgusting that people in this country have to beg for money to help with medical assistance.
	♥ 1:48pm doctorjazz: I have the vinyl version, have to admit the "skip"was a bit confusing for a few minutes, until I figured it out LOVE Goes to Church!
	♥ 1:49pm Sean in Bristol UK: Carla Bley, I have your attention, love this set
	♥ 1:50pm zzz: @docjazz, the early Bley recordings definitely have a strong sound of their era but i love it too. i was just listening to peter gordon "star jaws" (heard machomusic for the first time in a while over the weekend) and i love that kind of new music/jazz/funk/rock thing of the time
	♥ 1:51pm steveo: fooled me, for sure; i was looking for Irene's phone number for a second there (*i don't have irene's phone number)
	♥ 1:51pm doctorjazz: It's terrible and amazing we don't care for folks (in multiple situations, health care being a big one)!
	♥ 1:52pm doctorjazz: Getting behind at the office, your fault, Irene!
	1:56pm Peter K.: Carla Bley is the greatest. Period, end of sentence. No argument accepted.
	♥ 2:02pm Irene Trudel: I love Carla Bley's website! www.wattxtrawatt.com
	♥ 2:02pm Michael 98145: Mighty Eighty-Six
	2:05pm Sylvia: I posted a picture of one of my cats enjoying your show, Irene, it's on my fmu profile
	♥ 2:07pm doctorjazz: What's a good key for a donkey?
	♥ 2:08pm Irene Trudel: So sweet Sylvia! What's your kitty's name?
	♥ 2:10pm zzz: @Irene that is an amazing website! also Karen Mantler looks exactly like Carla
	♥ 2:10pm Irene Trudel: Key of Z, doctorjazz? In any case it's the wrong one.
	2:13pm Sylvia: she's Pixie
	♥ 2:15pm Irene Trudel: Ooh, we had a cat named Pixie-Gato! Inherited at age 18 from our cat sitter, who passed away, she lived to 21.
	♥ 2:16pm Sean in Bristol UK: Just looked Sylvia, a rather marvellous kitty that is black?
	2:18pm Sylvia: yes, Sean, a black cat with just a few white spots
	♥ 2:19pm Sean in Bristol UK: An absolute cutie, Sylvia
	2:20pm Sylvia: Pixie-Gato, such a cute name ha! it's always funny for a French person, since gato, spanish for cat, sounds like gateau which means cake
	♥ 2:23pm Sean in Bristol UK: Sylvia, does Pixie vibrate when she purrs?
	♥ 2:24pm Michael 98145: Kitty Cake !
	♥ 2:25pm Sean in Bristol UK: Huge fan of cats until my Lola appeared on the scene but still worship kitties\|!
	2:26pm Sylvia: she doesn't purr too strongly, no vibrations!
	2:32pm headcleaner: This is lovely, Irene
	♥ 2:34pm Michael 98145: Yes
	♥ 2:42pm doctorjazz: Go Robbie Robertson!
	♥ 2:42pm Michael 98145: Love that Bley Site www.wattxtrawatt.com...
	♥ 2:43pm Sean in Bristol UK: Miss Trudel, you are killing us!! Stonking set of stonking awesomeness!!
	♥ 2:46pm Irene Trudel: I appreciate the stonking amounts of praise, Sean!
	2:47pm David in London: I will second that. All stonk and no stink.
	♥ 2:51pm Michael 98145: Thank you again, Irene
	♥ 2:51pm Andrew in Toronto: Thanks for the great show!
	♥ 2:52pm Sean in Bristol UK: Stupendous show, Irene, thank you
	2:54pm TDK60: Thanks, Irene.
	2:55pm Mark R: Moon and Bike are quite lovely. Never heard of 'em.
	♥ 2:56pm doctorjazz: Great show, Irene, thanks much!
	♥ 2:56pm Irene Trudel: Thank You for listening in today! As always, I'll be back next Monday at noon. Keep listening here for Ken's Last Ever Radio Extravaganza! wfmu.org...
	♥ 2:56pm prguitar: Good afternoon Irene and Monday afternoon friends.. thought I would stop in to say hello, then head over to the archives later on.. Planet Waves is a favorite Bob and Band record in this house, so thanks for playing "Going Going Gone". Hope everyone is doing well on this sunny NYC afternoon! What a tremendous selection for today's show Irene!! Hope to cross paths with you again soon! 💙🙏🏻💙
	2:57pm David in London: Lovely show today Irene, thankee.
	♥ 2:57pm Michael 98145: piper to the end of the show
	🥁 ♥ 2:57pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): This week's sound collage ranges from ethereal to bombastic. "Welling Up (like a crab you could go backward)" --> Hello! wfmu.org...
	2:58pm ?: another great show, I presume, since I missed everything up to now (archives, here I come!)
	♥ 2:58pm Sean in Bristol UK: Got to say, Irene, you hit the ball out of the park this evening
	♥ 2:59pm alanr: ?: = me (the tardy one!)
	♥ 2:59pm listener james from westwood: That cannot have been three hours already. Dug it!

	🥁 ♥ 1:38pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Thanks, Irene! It sounds like such an awful accident.
	🥁 ♥ 1:38pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Mark R, I hear ya (from the choir!)
	🥁 ♥ 1:39pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): ha ha ha Carla Bley BTW!!! Love this!!!
	♥ 1:39pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Good morning-ish, Irene!
	♥ 1:41pm Sean in Bristol UK: S, M & S, salutations
	🥁 ♥ 1:44pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Seriously, Bryce's show is probably my most returned to the archives to hear show on WFMU. I just saw a live performance by Pandit Krishna Bhatt and have so much more appreciation for Indian classical music becasue of Bryce's program.
	♥ 1:44pm doctorjazz: Early Bley albums are great (I've read interviews with her where she disparages them, but I love them).
	♥ 1:44pm Irene Trudel: That "skip" is even funnier on CD! People who bought vinyl back in the day must've thought it was a defect.
	♥ 1:45pm Irene Trudel: Hi Mx. Baba Bee and Summer and Michael and Sylvia! Agreed-- Bryce has some unusual and unique tastes in sounds.
	♥ 1:45pm Michael 98145: @Mark R, i share your disgust. I don't come from wealth.
	♥ 1:46pm Sean in Bristol UK: Carla Bley, Marvellous
	1:47pm David in London: Hey S&M&S.
	♥ 1:47pm steveo: good stufff
	♥ 1:48pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Hi, Sean!
	♥ 1:48pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Hi, David!
	♥ 1:48pm Irene Trudel: Mark R, it truly is disgusting that people in this country have to beg for money to help with medical assistance.
	♥ 1:48pm doctorjazz: I have the vinyl version, have to admit the "skip"was a bit confusing for a few minutes, until I figured it out LOVE Goes to Church!
	♥ 1:49pm Sean in Bristol UK: Carla Bley, I have your attention, love this set
	♥ 1:50pm zzz: @docjazz, the early Bley recordings definitely have a strong sound of their era but i love it too. i was just listening to peter gordon "star jaws" (heard machomusic for the first time in a while over the weekend) and i love that kind of new music/jazz/funk/rock thing of the time
	♥ 1:51pm steveo: fooled me, for sure; i was looking for Irene's phone number for a second there (*i don't have irene's phone number)
	♥ 1:51pm doctorjazz: It's terrible and amazing we don't care for folks (in multiple situations, health care being a big one)!
	♥ 1:52pm doctorjazz: Getting behind at the office, your fault, Irene!
	1:56pm Peter K.: Carla Bley is the greatest. Period, end of sentence. No argument accepted.
	♥ 2:02pm Irene Trudel: I love Carla Bley's website! www.wattxtrawatt.com
	♥ 2:02pm Michael 98145: Mighty Eighty-Six
	2:05pm Sylvia: I posted a picture of one of my cats enjoying your show, Irene, it's on my fmu profile
	♥ 2:07pm doctorjazz: What's a good key for a donkey?
	♥ 2:08pm Irene Trudel: So sweet Sylvia! What's your kitty's name?
	♥ 2:10pm zzz: @Irene that is an amazing website! also Karen Mantler looks exactly like Carla
	♥ 2:10pm Irene Trudel: Key of Z, doctorjazz? In any case it's the wrong one.
	2:13pm Sylvia: she's Pixie
	♥ 2:15pm Irene Trudel: Ooh, we had a cat named Pixie-Gato! Inherited at age 18 from our cat sitter, who passed away, she lived to 21.
	♥ 2:16pm Sean in Bristol UK: Just looked Sylvia, a rather marvellous kitty that is black?
	2:18pm Sylvia: yes, Sean, a black cat with just a few white spots
	♥ 2:19pm Sean in Bristol UK: An absolute cutie, Sylvia
	2:20pm Sylvia: Pixie-Gato, such a cute name ha! it's always funny for a French person, since gato, spanish for cat, sounds like gateau which means cake
	♥ 2:23pm Sean in Bristol UK: Sylvia, does Pixie vibrate when she purrs?
	♥ 2:24pm Michael 98145: Kitty Cake !
	♥ 2:25pm Sean in Bristol UK: Huge fan of cats until my Lola appeared on the scene but still worship kitties\|!
	2:26pm Sylvia: she doesn't purr too strongly, no vibrations!
	2:32pm headcleaner: This is lovely, Irene
	♥ 2:34pm Michael 98145: Yes
	♥ 2:42pm doctorjazz: Go Robbie Robertson!
