WFMU: The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from March 30, 2025

Listener comments!
	🕰 ♥ 6:01pm doctorjazz: Hey DJ Peter, listening to the Lionel Hampton rracks on CD1 of the Mosaic Savory Collection box. Be right over...
	🕰 ♥ 6:02pm Listener Gregory: Not only am I awake, I realized the show was coming on right beforehand.
	🕰 ♥ 6:02pm Listener Gregory: Just found the clock in the photo. Nice camouflage!
	🕰 ♥ 6:03pm doctorjazz: Is that a picture in Brooklyn, near 4th Avenue, Flatbush Avenue (looks like it to this old Brooklyn Boy).
	♥ 6:04pm Deano de los Muertos: I’m a first timer but I’m here!
	🕰 ♥ 6:05pm doctorjazz: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:04 Welcome Deano! (I think I've seen you posting on the main station, maybe Joe McGasco/)
	🕰 ♥ 6:05pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @6:01 You're still on CD1 doc? You were into them during the start of Stork's show, I thought! That pic was snapped on Tuesday somewhere between Atlantic Ave. and Roulette, on my way to meet up with Jeff G.
	🕰 ♥ 6:06pm DJ Peter: This is your wake-up call, Gregory! Hi Deano de los Muertos, very glad you said hello! doctorjazz will give you the orientation.
	♥ 6:07pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ doctorjazz @6:05 Wouldn’t believe the struggle I just had to find the proper comments section. I’ve been 40 for many months, but I guess we can officially call me old
	🕰 ♥ 6:07pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @6:05 That's what I figured-the older tall building in the middle (that comes to a point) is a very old office building on the corner of Flatbush and 4th Avenues.
	🕰 ♥ 6:08pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Sonny's Dance" by "Marshall Allen" (I was curious who's playing on this, so I went to the Bandcamp site. 21 musicians are listed as playing on the album, so I'm still at a loss for who's on this track).
	🕰 ♥ 6:09pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Sonny's Dance" by "Marshall Allen" Peter, with your Delaware accent, I heard you announce this as New Don, and I wondered, "Is the record served over rice?" (I'm guessing not.)
	🕰 ♥ 6:09pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @6:08 I'm not sure either, but I am putting money on Tacuma on bass guitar.
	♥ 6:10pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ doctorjazz @6:05 and yes, I do enjoy Joe’s show live among many others on Monday, one of my days off.
	🕰 ♥ 6:11pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @6:05 I was listening to it then-wanted to listen to it a second time, let it sink in more before going to the next CD (I find if I just quckly move from CD to CD in these large CD sets, not that much of it sticks. It's sort of like studying, in a way. I often do a yoga routine in the morning, will play the same CD for a few days during it, then move on).
	🕰 ♥ 6:11pm Listener Gregory: @Deano, welcome! We can always use more dead people on the comment board.
	♥ 6:11pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ DJ Peter @6:06 Thanks for the welcome, DJ Peter! I am trying to listen to the other streams more
	🕰 ♥ 6:12pm doctorjazz: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:07 I'm afraid I certainly can't call you old (have a bit more than 30 years on you...)
	♥ 6:12pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:11 Thanks Gregory
	🕰 ♥ 6:13pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:11 @Deano, for the Drummer Stream shows, the easiest way to find the shows and playlists/comments is at wfmu.org/drummer . I'm guessing the other streams have a similar page.
	🕰 ♥ 6:13pm newton: ↳ doctorjazz @6:07 the williamsburg bank building, for many decades the tallest building in brooklyn
	🕰 ♥ 6:13pm DJ Peter: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:11 Glad you're hear! I'm biased of course but I find the Drummer Stream very rewarding!
	🕰 ♥ 6:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ newton @6:13 Yup!
	♥ 6:14pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ doctorjazz @6:12 many WFMU folk have years on me, I just meant that I’m suddenly finding myself confounded with technology where I used to not
	🕰 ♥ 6:15pm doctorjazz: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:14 Technology-you mean like the Sony Walkman? ;-)
	♥ 6:15pm Deano de los Muertos: I owned one 🫡
	♥ 6:17pm Deano de los Muertos: tapes were my first listening format..I’m just now forming a record collection. Countless CDs between the 2
	♥ 6:17pm tom tom the pipers son: good evening peter …everyone...
	🕰 ♥ 6:17pm doctorjazz: ↳ newton @6:13 Having moved out of Brooklyn about 30 years ago, I find those taller buildings a bit disorienting.
	🕰 ♥ 6:18pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Being-A-Ning" by "Silke Eberhard Trio" The title is obviously an allusion to Rhythm-A-Ning, but THAT title refers to the song's chord changes. Is this song based on another called Being... or I Got Rhythm? Or am I overthinking this?
	🕰 ♥ 6:18pm DJ Peter: hey newton, hey tom tom! I do not know Brooklyn first hand at all. Atlantic Ave. was an interesting walk!
	♥ 6:19pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ doctorjazz @6:17 a supertall grows in brooklyn...
	🕰 ♥ 6:19pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:18 Hmm. Trying to think of standards with "to be" verbs...
	🕰 ♥ 6:19pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @6:18 The nice thing about Atlantic Avenue/Roulette, is that (so far) I've always been able to find street parking when going to a show there (something that can't be said for many "hot" parts of Brooklyn).
	🕰 ♥ 6:20pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:19 Sounded like a bebop tune right at the end. Maybe if we listen to it 10 times, we'll eventually find ourselves humming Ornithology or something.
	🕰 ♥ 6:20pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Being-A-Ning" by "Silke Eberhard Trio" I suppose a bit of a pun on Monk's Rhythm-a-ning
	♥ 6:20pm tom tom the pipers son: @ peter did you get the forwarded mail from me with allen lowe’s post on joe albany...
	🕰 ♥ 6:20pm newton: ↳ doctorjazz @6:17 those building s annoy me. I think they should have had a rule like philadelphia, no buildings taller than Wm Penn, ah but then they too besmirched their own town
	♥ 6:21pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ doctorjazz @6:17 I haven’t been to Brooklyn in about 20 years
	🕰 ♥ 6:22pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @6:20 Yes, but what does the "Being" refer to? That's what I've been wondering.
	🕰 ♥ 6:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:20 I've been reading Allen Lowe's email posts, he's an interesting character (and pretty pissed off). I understand he's about to limit non-subscribers to every other post.
	🕰 ♥ 6:23pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @6:22 He's really pissed at them!
	🕰 ♥ 6:23pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Floating River Requiem (for Patrice Lumumba)" by ... This is cool! (wish I was able to play the music on the cover...)
	🕰 ♥ 6:23pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:20 I did get it but haven't had a chance to look at it yet. I have to psych myself up for such things -- I am very glad of people with strong opinions though...!
	♥ 6:23pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ doctorjazz @6:22 ah that’s ok, i can’t afford it at the moment and have too much to read anyhow...
	🕰 ♥ 6:23pm newton: ↳ doctorjazz @6:19 good to know. Im going there in a few weeks and was worrying about parking
	♥ 6:23pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Song: "Floating River Requiem (for Patrice Lumumba)" by ... This is great
	🕰 ♥ 6:24pm doctorjazz: ↳ newton @6:23 What show are you going to? (It's not EASY parking, but I have manage a street spot each time I've gone there).
	🕰 ♥ 6:25pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:19 All The Things You Are? But surely we would have recognized the changes.
	♥ 6:25pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ newton @6:23 hi newton, was out visiting mother today on long island...
	🕰 ♥ 6:26pm newton: ↳ doctorjazz @6:24 not a show really , an FCA event, though there are usually a few performances
	🕰 ♥ 6:26pm newton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:25 I thought that might be the case. good.
	🕰 ♥ 6:27pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Floating River Requiem (for Patrice Lumumba)" by ... Saw Vijay Iyer at the Village Vanguard not too long ago (Tyshawn Sorey on drums. A fine set, but I think Sorey played too loud, made it hard to hear Iyer. That's becomming a regular complaint of mine-shades of Lennie Tristano...)
	♥ 6:28pm Deano de los Muertos: enjoying the bass-y set
	🕰 ♥ 6:29pm DJ Peter: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:28 then you will enjoy The Laughing Clock (hosted by a recovering bassist)
	🕰 ♥ 6:30pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Epistrophy" by "Ron Carter" Ron Carter is having a run at The Blue Note in May, amazing! (not bad for an 87 year old) www.eventticketscenter.com...
	🕰 ♥ 6:31pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Epistrophy" by "Ron Carter" Carter is no doubt great, but I find these records of his hard to listen to. The instrument just sounds buzzy to me.
	🕰 ♥ 6:31pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @6:29 Didn't you have a gig in Princeton a year or so ago?(I remember being there, in Princeton, but trapped in PREX because of a sudden monsoon).
	♥ 6:32pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ DJ Peter @6:29 I’m an aspiring bassist. Owned own for a long time and would love to go beyond fumbling around
	🕰 ♥ 6:32pm doctorjazz: Great concert/club experience-Ron Carter and Jim Hall duets in some Greenwhich Village restaurants.
	🕰 ♥ 6:35pm doctorjazz: Sam Segal was at ahmed as well, but seems he didn't find all the rest of the WFMU-folks.
	🕰 ♥ 6:35pm adamdoesit: Hello DJ Peter and horologists. WFMUvians is the preferred nomenclature, dude.
	🕰 ♥ 6:36pm doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @6:35 I started to write that, but bumped into a spelling insecurity attack...
	🕰 ♥ 6:36pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @6:35 Couldn't find a place to park his horse.
	🕰 ♥ 6:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:36 Then, when he lost it, getting home must have been a drag...(probably my daughters would roll their eyes at that phrase...)
	♥ 6:38pm tom tom the pipers son: @ peter...it was tremendous meeting you and jeff… thanks for being so cordial
	🕰 ♥ 6:39pm adamdoesit: ↳ doctorjazz @6:36 You never know where smellcheck will take you, doc. Spellcheck, I meant spell--
	🕰 ♥ 6:40pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "El Haris (Anxious)" by "Ahmed Abdul-Malik" …with the fringe on top.
	🕰 ♥ 6:40pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:35 thank you, adamdoesit. I prefer to speak the preferred.
	🕰 ♥ 6:40pm DJ Peter: it's a silent W, right?
	🕰 ♥ 6:41pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:38 don't thank me! thank my momma for raising me right!
	🕰 ♥ 6:41pm newton: ↳ adamdoesit @6:40 i was thinking that too, ws it a quote in the music that I wasnt paying so much attention to as I answered an email? I looked through comments to see if it was there
	♥ 6:41pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @6:41 ha ha…!
	🕰 ♥ 6:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ newton @6:41 Yeah, that was Johnny Griffin bringing some Oklahoma vibes to the Sahara
	🕰 ♥ 6:43pm adamdoesit: ↳ newton @6:41 Favorite quote of Johnny Griffin's around this time, I think -- he plays it on Thelonious in Action (1958), too.
	🕰 ♥ 6:43pm Listener Gregory: Speaking of shows, there is a great looking show tomorrow night by Satako Fujii and her Tokyo Trio in the wilds of Nowhereville, MA. I was planning to attend, but I was assigned extra volunteer duties tomorrow and have more early on Tuesday (busy week), so I probably won't make it. BUT, it's being livestreamed!! So everyone can watch remotely, at 7:30 EDT: www.youtube.com...
	🕰 ♥ 6:44pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:43 The actual show is in Goshen, MA, which might be near you, if you are not near anything.
	🕰 ♥ 6:45pm newton: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:44 goshen MA original home of Goshenite! the colorless beryl
	♥ 6:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "El Haris (Anxious)" by "Ahmed Abdul-Malik" so this is what they were interpreting…. i understand some of their repetition in ahmed’s perfrmance now
	♥ 6:46pm tom tom the pipers son: the repetition
	🕰 ♥ 6:46pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "El Haris (Anxious)" by "Ahmed Abdul-Malik" Don't hate, but to me this is so much cooler than [Ahmed]… there's a wit to it. Maybe I'm missing it, or maybe wit is obsolete now, I don't know; but I don't hear humor in that, and I do in this, and it makes a difference.
	🕰 ♥ 6:46pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:43 ooh thanks that's great! I have a track from their new album loaded but not locked... may not have time tonight to squeeze it in
	🕰 ♥ 6:47pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:46 i get that, for sure!
	🕰 ♥ 6:51pm WR: Hello DJ Peter and folks
	🕰 ♥ 6:51pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:46 Keep the safety on. You don't want it going off unexpectedly.
	🕰 ♥ 6:52pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Mr. Lucky" by "J.A. Granelli & Mr. Lucky" This is cool!
	♥ 6:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ adamdoesit @6:46 to be fair.. i think it was an off night for ahmed, but hard to tell….they will be, were(?) at big ears fest…wonder how they fared there...
	🕰 ♥ 6:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @6:46 Likely this generalization can be easily debunked, but in my listening I've noted different European Free Jazz styles from different countries. Specifically, England and Germany tend to go all out, as intense as they can. Italy and The Netherlands tend to add more humor and local folk music to their Free outiings. Scandinavian countries also mine local folk music, and like lots of open space. Based (likely) on entirely too few samples, but still...
	♥ 6:58pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ doctorjazz @6:56 debunker…moi….derek bailey not witty…?
	♥ 6:59pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:58 …. ; )
	🕰 ♥ 7:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:58 Feels pedal to the metal to me, but no expert on him (or,I can retreat to:he's the exception that makes the rule)
	🕰 ♥ 7:01pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @6:56 I would second that, though there are obviously exceptions to any national generalizations.
	♥ 7:04pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ doctorjazz @7:00 i’m not really challenging you just having fun…. but i do think he’s witty… you can hear it on “ballads”….possible to be both… find evan parker witty too but not in a noel coward way...
	🕰 ♥ 7:05pm adamdoesit: ↳ doctorjazz @6:56 Maybe worth noting that, when he left these benighted shores, Johnny Griffin, an improviser with as active a sense of humor as Armstrong or Gillespie, settled in the Netherlands. Also worth noting: don't leave the tomatoes out of the Instant Pot pot roast. It'll still be good, but. Back after dinner.
	🕰 ♥ 7:05pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Little Girl I'll Miss You" by "Dave Holland" Again with the bass! (Actually, Holland is one of my favorites.)
	♥ 7:06pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:05 I’m still diggin it!
	🕰 ♥ 7:06pm newton: oh damn!
	🕰 ♥ 7:07pm doctorjazz: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:04 Sure...I'll admit he usually scared the crap out of me, so i likely miss the humor.
	♥ 7:08pm tom tom the pipers son: in radicality there’s wit….can be scary...
	♥ 7:09pm tom tom the pipers son: ahmed’s performance was not witty though…adamdoesit is correct
	🕰 ♥ 7:14pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Medi I" by "Mary Lou Williams" Peter, your story would be much better if you WERE attacked by the bird's parents.
	🕰 ♥ 7:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:05 Me too-got to see him with the band that had Marvin Smitty Smith at the old Sweet Basil club.
	🕰 ♥ 7:14pm newton: nyc bird alliance, formerly audobon is good resource for hurt birds. to report dead birds, dbird.org
	♥ 7:14pm Deano de los Muertos: poor birdo, best wishes for him 🦅
	🕰 ♥ 7:14pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	🕰 ♥ 7:15pm newton: hey pot8o
	🕰 ♥ 7:16pm doctorjazz: I'm under the impression the parts of the recent Dylan movie where he meets Guthrie are fictional.
	🕰 ♥ 7:17pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:16 Guthrie was no longer in that hospital by 1965, so when Dylan goes to visit him after going electirc at Newport... that wouldn't have happened there
	🕰 ♥ 7:19pm doctorjazz: I enjoyed the Dylan movie anyway. I understand Dylan liked it as well (which I find interesting, as he's a total asshole in the movie).
	🕰 ♥ 7:19pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @7:17 But I believe that Dylan did visit Guthrie at his hospital (at some time).
	🕰 ♥ 7:19pm DJ Peter: pot8o! also necessary to add to the instant pot! and the chat room!
	♥ 7:19pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ DJ Peter @7:17 in the movie, he visits him in the hospital seemingly years before Newport
	🕰 ♥ 7:21pm WR: ↳ Song: "Little Girl I'll Miss You" by "Dave Holland" Regarding the Holland cover design, it is credited to Spirit of Celtia LTD. www.discogs.com...
	🕰 ♥ 7:22pm DJ Peter: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @7:19 he may have still been in NJ in 1962/1963 obviously a lot in that movie is made up, as indeed in all biopics
	♥ 7:22pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ doctorjazz @7:19 My dad is 78, we saw it I the theater and he loved it for what it was
	🕰 ♥ 7:22pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @7:21 WR with the cold water of reality
	♥ 7:23pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ DJ Peter @7:22 for sure, I just meant him meeting Guthrie is the very first thing that happens in the timeline of the film
	🕰 ♥ 7:23pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Hawk Wind" by "Billy Mohler" Bass mixed up front and center (speaking of bass inclinations).
	🕰 ♥ 7:26pm doctorjazz: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @7:22 I saw it with my wife and older daughter, who also both liked it (neither are big Dylan fans, or know the music much if Peter Paul and Mary didn't cover it. I dived head first into all the albums until about Blood on the Tracks)
	🕰 ♥ 7:27pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "The Hawk and the Mouse" by "Marilyn Crispell & Da... This is nice! (Crispell is inside that piano)
	🕰 ♥ 7:30pm Listener Gregory: I'm heading into the kitchen to add tomatoes to the InstaPot, so my wisdom may be less evident for a while. (Yes, I know that's a straight line.)
	🕰 ♥ 7:32pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @7:27 Interestingly, David Rothenberg appeared in the final song of the solo Sylvie Courvoisier concert I heard this month. She also plays inside the piano a great deal.
	🕰 ♥ 7:34pm newton: fortunately I still had leftover baked ham and taters and some broccoli, no instant pot, but Im good with the old fashioned slow pots.
	🕰 ♥ 7:36pm DJ Peter: just had my dinner of leftover instant pot stew including tomatoes myself. Took a chance and bought the big Costco box of frozen cubed goat meat. Found a recipe for a curry online and... pretty good for a first attempt if i do say so myself.
	🕰 ♥ 7:36pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Hawk Migration" by "Bloom/Helias/Previte" Bloom is playing in NYC in a couple of weeks (think she recentlu had a gig under her own name) www.livemusicproject.org...
	🕰 ♥ 7:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:32 I liked his bass clarinet sound!
	🕰 ♥ 7:38pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @7:36 Had some goat curry when I went to Africa a couple of years ago...never again!
	♥ 7:38pm tom tom the pipers son: i’ve made curry recently with chicken stock tomato paste and thickened with yogurt… you let the chik stock cool before adding yogurt then return to heat
	♥ 7:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:38 and of course curry and garlic powder
	🕰 ♥ 7:40pm newton: Frances likes leftover hams as much as she likes poached salmons
	♥ 7:40pm tom tom the pipers son: not the galloping gourmet but…..?
	🕰 ♥ 7:41pm newton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:40 he drank more than he cooked
	♥ 7:41pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ newton @7:41 notoriously
	🕰 ♥ 7:42pm WR: ↳ Song: "Hawk Migration" by "Bloom/Helias/Previte" A reminder regarding Jane Ira Bloom, she joined in on the playlist comments when Stork did a birthday feature for her birthday this past January. wfmu.org...
	🕰 ♥ 7:42pm newton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:40 my grandmother, born 1888, had a crush on him
	🕰 ♥ 7:43pm newton: I did
	♥ 7:44pm Deano de los Muertos: There are some hawks that live in the tall pines above my apts. it’s getting to be that time for year for them to start screeching
	♥ 7:44pm Deano de los Muertos: *of
	♥ 7:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ newton @7:42 amazing...
	🕰 ♥ 7:45pm newton: I heard birds earlier, thought it was the music but turned out to be, crows I think
	♥ 7:45pm northguineahills: susie ibarra! she disappeared to be a mum in houston. she's now reemerged.
	🕰 ♥ 7:45pm doctorjazz: Time for me to head out, dinner, schvitz, catch the rest in the archive, thanks Peter!
	♥ 7:47pm northguineahills: marylyn crispell, seen her twice, stalward of the anthony braxton quarter!
	♥ 7:48pm northguineahills: i'll be listening, time for some brinner!
	♥ 7:48pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Peter, chucklers
	🕰 ♥ 7:49pm DJ Peter: northguineahills! coelacanthø! now we can get started!
	🕰 ♥ 7:50pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Blackbird" by "Freddie Hubbard" While you guys were listening to Lionel Hampton and V-Discs, I was listening to the Freddie Hubbard Mosaic box of his BlueNote records. Although not quite as awe-inspiring as the Shorter and Hancock records of the same time, they are really impressive... IMHO.
	🕰 ♥ 7:50pm Listener Gregory: ↳ northguineahills @7:45 Houston! That is extreme.
	🕰 ♥ 7:53pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:50 Spent a lot of time with that box...
	♥ 7:56pm coelacanth∅: i liked the galloping gourmet, as a child. then when i saw...experienced Julia Child i wondered if she was Graham Kerr's alter ego...
	🕰 ♥ 7:57pm DJ Peter: I love Hubbard's Blue Note records but I agree that comparing them to Shorter, Hancock, Hutcherson he maybe doesn't stand out. But don't forget he was a sideman on many of those records Just in 1964: Art Blakey's Free for All Dolphy's Out to Lunch Hancock's Empyrean Isles Shorter's Speak No Evil
	🕰 ♥ 7:58pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @7:56 I remember watching Galloping Gourmet with my mom... but Child! So weird (in the best way)! What a character!
	🕰 ♥ 7:58pm newton: ↳ coelacanth∅ @7:56 style not substance. Once when he made a cake he put the batter in the greased and floured pan, and drunkenly picked it up and dropped it flat onto the counter, loud, saying it was a technique to assure it rose. I then tried the same "technique" and got in trouble, without even being drunk!
	🕰 ♥ 7:59pm newton: and it did not rise
	🕰 ♥ 7:59pm newton: chocolate cement
	🕰 ♥ 8:00pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @7:57 And they were side musicians on his records.
	🕰 ♥ 8:00pm DJ Peter: ↳ newton @7:59 yum
	♥ 8:00pm coelacanth∅: ↳ newton @7:59 multi-purpose cement
	♥ 8:02pm coelacanth∅: ↳ newton @7:59 worked great for stone walls and such, but could only take so much nibbling.
	♥ 8:06pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DJ Peter @7:58 i was either already a vegetarian or planning to be, the first time i saw Julia Child in action. i was torn between my fascination and a fondness of her looniness, and her blatant disrespect for animals.
	🕰 ♥ 8:07pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Blackbird" by "Freddie Hubbard" Back again. This might be the earliest Kenny Barron I've heard?
	8:08pm ?: ↳ adamdoesit @8:07 8:08 pm?
	🕰 ♥ 8:09pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @8:07 quite possibly! he did record with Yusef Lateef and Dizzy Gillespie before this
	8:12pm Listener Gregory: Funny… I heard this Mingus song start and became convinced it was an Ellington tune. (I actually know the song from the Changes record.)
	🕰 ♥ 8:14pm DJ Peter: ↳ @8:08 The Laughing Clock has mixed feelings about this joke
	♥ 8:18pm coelacanth∅: timing in comedy is no laughing matter.
	🕰 ♥ 8:19pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:18 apt as always! lol
	🕰 ♥ 8:22pm newton: there is one piano key that sounds to me like one string is out of tune, is it my ear or does anyone else hear it?
	🕰 ♥ 8:23pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "For Harry Carney" by "Charles Mingus" Mingus' ALS would've been pretty advanced by this point. He plays astonishingly well considering.
	♥ 8:24pm Deano de los Muertos: Loving the show, Peter!
	🕰 ♥ 8:25pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @8:23 Indeed. He was not yet diagnoses but was suffering and didn't really have the use of one leg by this point. The Mingus release has the best liner notes of any of the Responance issues, IMHO
	🕰 ♥ 8:26pm DJ Peter: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @8:24 gratified! glad you're here!
	🕰 ♥ 8:26pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @8:25 Did you write them?
	🕰 ♥ 8:29pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:26 ha! no! But I really respect Brian Priestly. The Ricky Ford and Jack Walrath reminiscenses are insightful, and there's a good essay on the context of Mingus's reception in Argentina.
	♥ 8:31pm Filip: Awesome show! Thank you!!! From under the Mt Blanc... burning midnight oil...
	🕰 ♥ 8:33pm DJ Peter: ↳ Filip @8:31 Cool! Thanks for chiming in!
	♥ 8:33pm Charlie: Hi Peter, drummerstream listeners! I'll be filling in for Mike Lupica tonight. Stay tuned! Join me: wfmu.org...
	🕰 ♥ 8:35pm DJ Peter: ↳ Charlie @8:33 Nothing doing, Charlie!

The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from March 30, 2025

View DJ Peter's profile

Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

Listener comments!
	🕰 ♥ 6:01pm doctorjazz: Hey DJ Peter, listening to the Lionel Hampton rracks on CD1 of the Mosaic Savory Collection box. Be right over...
	🕰 ♥ 6:02pm Listener Gregory: Not only am I awake, I realized the show was coming on right beforehand.
	🕰 ♥ 6:02pm Listener Gregory: Just found the clock in the photo. Nice camouflage!
	🕰 ♥ 6:03pm doctorjazz: Is that a picture in Brooklyn, near 4th Avenue, Flatbush Avenue (looks like it to this old Brooklyn Boy).
	♥ 6:04pm Deano de los Muertos: I’m a first timer but I’m here!
	🕰 ♥ 6:05pm doctorjazz: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:04 Welcome Deano! (I think I've seen you posting on the main station, maybe Joe McGasco/)
	🕰 ♥ 6:05pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @6:01 You're still on CD1 doc? You were into them during the start of Stork's show, I thought! That pic was snapped on Tuesday somewhere between Atlantic Ave. and Roulette, on my way to meet up with Jeff G.
	🕰 ♥ 6:06pm DJ Peter: This is your wake-up call, Gregory! Hi Deano de los Muertos, very glad you said hello! doctorjazz will give you the orientation.
	♥ 6:07pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ doctorjazz @6:05 Wouldn’t believe the struggle I just had to find the proper comments section. I’ve been 40 for many months, but I guess we can officially call me old
	🕰 ♥ 6:07pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @6:05 That's what I figured-the older tall building in the middle (that comes to a point) is a very old office building on the corner of Flatbush and 4th Avenues.
	🕰 ♥ 6:08pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Sonny's Dance" by "Marshall Allen" (I was curious who's playing on this, so I went to the Bandcamp site. 21 musicians are listed as playing on the album, so I'm still at a loss for who's on this track).
	🕰 ♥ 6:09pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Sonny's Dance" by "Marshall Allen" Peter, with your Delaware accent, I heard you announce this as New Don, and I wondered, "Is the record served over rice?" (I'm guessing not.)
	🕰 ♥ 6:09pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @6:08 I'm not sure either, but I am putting money on Tacuma on bass guitar.
	♥ 6:10pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ doctorjazz @6:05 and yes, I do enjoy Joe’s show live among many others on Monday, one of my days off.
	🕰 ♥ 6:11pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @6:05 I was listening to it then-wanted to listen to it a second time, let it sink in more before going to the next CD (I find if I just quckly move from CD to CD in these large CD sets, not that much of it sticks. It's sort of like studying, in a way. I often do a yoga routine in the morning, will play the same CD for a few days during it, then move on).
	🕰 ♥ 6:11pm Listener Gregory: @Deano, welcome! We can always use more dead people on the comment board.
	♥ 6:11pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ DJ Peter @6:06 Thanks for the welcome, DJ Peter! I am trying to listen to the other streams more
	🕰 ♥ 6:12pm doctorjazz: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:07 I'm afraid I certainly can't call you old (have a bit more than 30 years on you...)
	♥ 6:12pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:11 Thanks Gregory
	🕰 ♥ 6:13pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:11 @Deano, for the Drummer Stream shows, the easiest way to find the shows and playlists/comments is at wfmu.org/drummer . I'm guessing the other streams have a similar page.
	🕰 ♥ 6:13pm newton: ↳ doctorjazz @6:07 the williamsburg bank building, for many decades the tallest building in brooklyn
	🕰 ♥ 6:13pm DJ Peter: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:11 Glad you're hear! I'm biased of course but I find the Drummer Stream very rewarding!
	🕰 ♥ 6:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ newton @6:13 Yup!
	♥ 6:14pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ doctorjazz @6:12 many WFMU folk have years on me, I just meant that I’m suddenly finding myself confounded with technology where I used to not
	🕰 ♥ 6:15pm doctorjazz: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:14 Technology-you mean like the Sony Walkman? ;-)
	♥ 6:15pm Deano de los Muertos: I owned one 🫡
	♥ 6:17pm Deano de los Muertos: tapes were my first listening format..I’m just now forming a record collection. Countless CDs between the 2
	♥ 6:17pm tom tom the pipers son: good evening peter …everyone...
	🕰 ♥ 6:17pm doctorjazz: ↳ newton @6:13 Having moved out of Brooklyn about 30 years ago, I find those taller buildings a bit disorienting.
	🕰 ♥ 6:18pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Being-A-Ning" by "Silke Eberhard Trio" The title is obviously an allusion to Rhythm-A-Ning, but THAT title refers to the song's chord changes. Is this song based on another called Being... or I Got Rhythm? Or am I overthinking this?
	🕰 ♥ 6:18pm DJ Peter: hey newton, hey tom tom! I do not know Brooklyn first hand at all. Atlantic Ave. was an interesting walk!
	♥ 6:19pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ doctorjazz @6:17 a supertall grows in brooklyn...
	🕰 ♥ 6:19pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:18 Hmm. Trying to think of standards with "to be" verbs...
	🕰 ♥ 6:19pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @6:18 The nice thing about Atlantic Avenue/Roulette, is that (so far) I've always been able to find street parking when going to a show there (something that can't be said for many "hot" parts of Brooklyn).
	🕰 ♥ 6:20pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:19 Sounded like a bebop tune right at the end. Maybe if we listen to it 10 times, we'll eventually find ourselves humming Ornithology or something.
	🕰 ♥ 6:20pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Being-A-Ning" by "Silke Eberhard Trio" I suppose a bit of a pun on Monk's Rhythm-a-ning
	♥ 6:20pm tom tom the pipers son: @ peter did you get the forwarded mail from me with allen lowe’s post on joe albany...
	🕰 ♥ 6:20pm newton: ↳ doctorjazz @6:17 those building s annoy me. I think they should have had a rule like philadelphia, no buildings taller than Wm Penn, ah but then they too besmirched their own town
	♥ 6:21pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ doctorjazz @6:17 I haven’t been to Brooklyn in about 20 years
	🕰 ♥ 6:22pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @6:20 Yes, but what does the "Being" refer to? That's what I've been wondering.
	🕰 ♥ 6:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:20 I've been reading Allen Lowe's email posts, he's an interesting character (and pretty pissed off). I understand he's about to limit non-subscribers to every other post.
	🕰 ♥ 6:23pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @6:22 He's really pissed at them!
	🕰 ♥ 6:23pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Floating River Requiem (for Patrice Lumumba)" by ... This is cool! (wish I was able to play the music on the cover...)
	🕰 ♥ 6:23pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:20 I did get it but haven't had a chance to look at it yet. I have to psych myself up for such things -- I am very glad of people with strong opinions though...!
	♥ 6:23pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ doctorjazz @6:22 ah that’s ok, i can’t afford it at the moment and have too much to read anyhow...
	🕰 ♥ 6:23pm newton: ↳ doctorjazz @6:19 good to know. Im going there in a few weeks and was worrying about parking
	♥ 6:23pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Song: "Floating River Requiem (for Patrice Lumumba)" by ... This is great
	🕰 ♥ 6:24pm doctorjazz: ↳ newton @6:23 What show are you going to? (It's not EASY parking, but I have manage a street spot each time I've gone there).
	🕰 ♥ 6:25pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:19 All The Things You Are? But surely we would have recognized the changes.
	♥ 6:25pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ newton @6:23 hi newton, was out visiting mother today on long island...
	🕰 ♥ 6:26pm newton: ↳ doctorjazz @6:24 not a show really , an FCA event, though there are usually a few performances
	🕰 ♥ 6:26pm newton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:25 I thought that might be the case. good.
	🕰 ♥ 6:27pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Floating River Requiem (for Patrice Lumumba)" by ... Saw Vijay Iyer at the Village Vanguard not too long ago (Tyshawn Sorey on drums. A fine set, but I think Sorey played too loud, made it hard to hear Iyer. That's becomming a regular complaint of mine-shades of Lennie Tristano...)
	♥ 6:28pm Deano de los Muertos: enjoying the bass-y set
	🕰 ♥ 6:29pm DJ Peter: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:28 then you will enjoy The Laughing Clock (hosted by a recovering bassist)
	🕰 ♥ 6:30pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Epistrophy" by "Ron Carter" Ron Carter is having a run at The Blue Note in May, amazing! (not bad for an 87 year old) www.eventticketscenter.com...
	🕰 ♥ 6:31pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Epistrophy" by "Ron Carter" Carter is no doubt great, but I find these records of his hard to listen to. The instrument just sounds buzzy to me.
	🕰 ♥ 6:31pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @6:29 Didn't you have a gig in Princeton a year or so ago?(I remember being there, in Princeton, but trapped in PREX because of a sudden monsoon).
	♥ 6:32pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ DJ Peter @6:29 I’m an aspiring bassist. Owned own for a long time and would love to go beyond fumbling around
	🕰 ♥ 6:32pm doctorjazz: Great concert/club experience-Ron Carter and Jim Hall duets in some Greenwhich Village restaurants.
	🕰 ♥ 6:35pm doctorjazz: Sam Segal was at ahmed as well, but seems he didn't find all the rest of the WFMU-folks.
	🕰 ♥ 6:35pm adamdoesit: Hello DJ Peter and horologists. WFMUvians is the preferred nomenclature, dude.
	🕰 ♥ 6:36pm doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @6:35 I started to write that, but bumped into a spelling insecurity attack...
	🕰 ♥ 6:36pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @6:35 Couldn't find a place to park his horse.
	🕰 ♥ 6:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:36 Then, when he lost it, getting home must have been a drag...(probably my daughters would roll their eyes at that phrase...)
	♥ 6:38pm tom tom the pipers son: @ peter...it was tremendous meeting you and jeff… thanks for being so cordial
	🕰 ♥ 6:39pm adamdoesit: ↳ doctorjazz @6:36 You never know where smellcheck will take you, doc. Spellcheck, I meant spell--
	🕰 ♥ 6:40pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "El Haris (Anxious)" by "Ahmed Abdul-Malik" …with the fringe on top.
	🕰 ♥ 6:40pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:35 thank you, adamdoesit. I prefer to speak the preferred.
	🕰 ♥ 6:40pm DJ Peter: it's a silent W, right?
	🕰 ♥ 6:41pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:38 don't thank me! thank my momma for raising me right!
	🕰 ♥ 6:41pm newton: ↳ adamdoesit @6:40 i was thinking that too, ws it a quote in the music that I wasnt paying so much attention to as I answered an email? I looked through comments to see if it was there
	♥ 6:41pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @6:41 ha ha…!
	🕰 ♥ 6:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ newton @6:41 Yeah, that was Johnny Griffin bringing some Oklahoma vibes to the Sahara
	🕰 ♥ 6:43pm adamdoesit: ↳ newton @6:41 Favorite quote of Johnny Griffin's around this time, I think -- he plays it on Thelonious in Action (1958), too.
	🕰 ♥ 6:43pm Listener Gregory: Speaking of shows, there is a great looking show tomorrow night by Satako Fujii and her Tokyo Trio in the wilds of Nowhereville, MA. I was planning to attend, but I was assigned extra volunteer duties tomorrow and have more early on Tuesday (busy week), so I probably won't make it. BUT, it's being livestreamed!! So everyone can watch remotely, at 7:30 EDT: www.youtube.com...
	🕰 ♥ 6:44pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:43 The actual show is in Goshen, MA, which might be near you, if you are not near anything.
	🕰 ♥ 6:45pm newton: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:44 goshen MA original home of Goshenite! the colorless beryl
	♥ 6:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "El Haris (Anxious)" by "Ahmed Abdul-Malik" so this is what they were interpreting…. i understand some of their repetition in ahmed’s perfrmance now
	♥ 6:46pm tom tom the pipers son: the repetition
	🕰 ♥ 6:46pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "El Haris (Anxious)" by "Ahmed Abdul-Malik" Don't hate, but to me this is so much cooler than [Ahmed]… there's a wit to it. Maybe I'm missing it, or maybe wit is obsolete now, I don't know; but I don't hear humor in that, and I do in this, and it makes a difference.
	🕰 ♥ 6:46pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:43 ooh thanks that's great! I have a track from their new album loaded but not locked... may not have time tonight to squeeze it in
	🕰 ♥ 6:47pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:46 i get that, for sure!
	🕰 ♥ 6:51pm WR: Hello DJ Peter and folks
	🕰 ♥ 6:51pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:46 Keep the safety on. You don't want it going off unexpectedly.
	🕰 ♥ 6:52pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Mr. Lucky" by "J.A. Granelli & Mr. Lucky" This is cool!
	♥ 6:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ adamdoesit @6:46 to be fair.. i think it was an off night for ahmed, but hard to tell….they will be, were(?) at big ears fest…wonder how they fared there...
	🕰 ♥ 6:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @6:46 Likely this generalization can be easily debunked, but in my listening I've noted different European Free Jazz styles from different countries. Specifically, England and Germany tend to go all out, as intense as they can. Italy and The Netherlands tend to add more humor and local folk music to their Free outiings. Scandinavian countries also mine local folk music, and like lots of open space. Based (likely) on entirely too few samples, but still...
	♥ 6:58pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ doctorjazz @6:56 debunker…moi….derek bailey not witty…?
	♥ 6:59pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:58 …. ; )
	🕰 ♥ 7:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:58 Feels pedal to the metal to me, but no expert on him (or,I can retreat to:he's the exception that makes the rule)
	🕰 ♥ 7:01pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @6:56 I would second that, though there are obviously exceptions to any national generalizations.
	♥ 7:04pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ doctorjazz @7:00 i’m not really challenging you just having fun…. but i do think he’s witty… you can hear it on “ballads”….possible to be both… find evan parker witty too but not in a noel coward way...
	🕰 ♥ 7:05pm adamdoesit: ↳ doctorjazz @6:56 Maybe worth noting that, when he left these benighted shores, Johnny Griffin, an improviser with as active a sense of humor as Armstrong or Gillespie, settled in the Netherlands. Also worth noting: don't leave the tomatoes out of the Instant Pot pot roast. It'll still be good, but. Back after dinner.
	🕰 ♥ 7:05pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Little Girl I'll Miss You" by "Dave Holland" Again with the bass! (Actually, Holland is one of my favorites.)
	♥ 7:06pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:05 I’m still diggin it!
	🕰 ♥ 7:06pm newton: oh damn!
	🕰 ♥ 7:07pm doctorjazz: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:04 Sure...I'll admit he usually scared the crap out of me, so i likely miss the humor.
	♥ 7:08pm tom tom the pipers son: in radicality there’s wit….can be scary...
	♥ 7:09pm tom tom the pipers son: ahmed’s performance was not witty though…adamdoesit is correct
	🕰 ♥ 7:14pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Medi I" by "Mary Lou Williams" Peter, your story would be much better if you WERE attacked by the bird's parents.
	🕰 ♥ 7:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:05 Me too-got to see him with the band that had Marvin Smitty Smith at the old Sweet Basil club.
	🕰 ♥ 7:14pm newton: nyc bird alliance, formerly audobon is good resource for hurt birds. to report dead birds, dbird.org
	♥ 7:14pm Deano de los Muertos: poor birdo, best wishes for him 🦅
	🕰 ♥ 7:14pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	🕰 ♥ 7:15pm newton: hey pot8o
	🕰 ♥ 7:16pm doctorjazz: I'm under the impression the parts of the recent Dylan movie where he meets Guthrie are fictional.
	🕰 ♥ 7:17pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:16 Guthrie was no longer in that hospital by 1965, so when Dylan goes to visit him after going electirc at Newport... that wouldn't have happened there
	🕰 ♥ 7:19pm doctorjazz: I enjoyed the Dylan movie anyway. I understand Dylan liked it as well (which I find interesting, as he's a total asshole in the movie).
	🕰 ♥ 7:19pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @7:17 But I believe that Dylan did visit Guthrie at his hospital (at some time).
	🕰 ♥ 7:19pm DJ Peter: pot8o! also necessary to add to the instant pot! and the chat room!
	♥ 7:19pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ DJ Peter @7:17 in the movie, he visits him in the hospital seemingly years before Newport
	🕰 ♥ 7:21pm WR: ↳ Song: "Little Girl I'll Miss You" by "Dave Holland" Regarding the Holland cover design, it is credited to Spirit of Celtia LTD. www.discogs.com...
	🕰 ♥ 7:22pm DJ Peter: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @7:19 he may have still been in NJ in 1962/1963 obviously a lot in that movie is made up, as indeed in all biopics
	♥ 7:22pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ doctorjazz @7:19 My dad is 78, we saw it I the theater and he loved it for what it was
	🕰 ♥ 7:22pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @7:21 WR with the cold water of reality
	♥ 7:23pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ DJ Peter @7:22 for sure, I just meant him meeting Guthrie is the very first thing that happens in the timeline of the film
	🕰 ♥ 7:23pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Hawk Wind" by "Billy Mohler" Bass mixed up front and center (speaking of bass inclinations).
	🕰 ♥ 7:26pm doctorjazz: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @7:22 I saw it with my wife and older daughter, who also both liked it (neither are big Dylan fans, or know the music much if Peter Paul and Mary didn't cover it. I dived head first into all the albums until about Blood on the Tracks)
	🕰 ♥ 7:27pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "The Hawk and the Mouse" by "Marilyn Crispell & Da... This is nice! (Crispell is inside that piano)
	🕰 ♥ 7:30pm Listener Gregory: I'm heading into the kitchen to add tomatoes to the InstaPot, so my wisdom may be less evident for a while. (Yes, I know that's a straight line.)
	🕰 ♥ 7:32pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @7:27 Interestingly, David Rothenberg appeared in the final song of the solo Sylvie Courvoisier concert I heard this month. She also plays inside the piano a great deal.
	🕰 ♥ 7:34pm newton: fortunately I still had leftover baked ham and taters and some broccoli, no instant pot, but Im good with the old fashioned slow pots.
	🕰 ♥ 7:36pm DJ Peter: just had my dinner of leftover instant pot stew including tomatoes myself. Took a chance and bought the big Costco box of frozen cubed goat meat. Found a recipe for a curry online and... pretty good for a first attempt if i do say so myself.
	🕰 ♥ 7:36pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Hawk Migration" by "Bloom/Helias/Previte" Bloom is playing in NYC in a couple of weeks (think she recentlu had a gig under her own name) www.livemusicproject.org...
	🕰 ♥ 7:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:32 I liked his bass clarinet sound!
	🕰 ♥ 7:38pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @7:36 Had some goat curry when I went to Africa a couple of years ago...never again!
	♥ 7:38pm tom tom the pipers son: i’ve made curry recently with chicken stock tomato paste and thickened with yogurt… you let the chik stock cool before adding yogurt then return to heat
	♥ 7:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:38 and of course curry and garlic powder
	🕰 ♥ 7:40pm newton: Frances likes leftover hams as much as she likes poached salmons
	♥ 7:40pm tom tom the pipers son: not the galloping gourmet but…..?
	🕰 ♥ 7:41pm newton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:40 he drank more than he cooked
	♥ 7:41pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ newton @7:41 notoriously
	🕰 ♥ 7:42pm WR: ↳ Song: "Hawk Migration" by "Bloom/Helias/Previte" A reminder regarding Jane Ira Bloom, she joined in on the playlist comments when Stork did a birthday feature for her birthday this past January. wfmu.org...
	🕰 ♥ 7:42pm newton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:40 my grandmother, born 1888, had a crush on him
	🕰 ♥ 7:43pm newton: I did
	♥ 7:44pm Deano de los Muertos: There are some hawks that live in the tall pines above my apts. it’s getting to be that time for year for them to start screeching
	♥ 7:44pm Deano de los Muertos: *of
	♥ 7:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ newton @7:42 amazing...
	🕰 ♥ 7:45pm newton: I heard birds earlier, thought it was the music but turned out to be, crows I think
	♥ 7:45pm northguineahills: susie ibarra! she disappeared to be a mum in houston. she's now reemerged.
	🕰 ♥ 7:45pm doctorjazz: Time for me to head out, dinner, schvitz, catch the rest in the archive, thanks Peter!
	♥ 7:47pm northguineahills: marylyn crispell, seen her twice, stalward of the anthony braxton quarter!
	♥ 7:48pm northguineahills: i'll be listening, time for some brinner!
	♥ 7:48pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Peter, chucklers
	🕰 ♥ 7:49pm DJ Peter: northguineahills! coelacanthø! now we can get started!
	🕰 ♥ 7:50pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Blackbird" by "Freddie Hubbard" While you guys were listening to Lionel Hampton and V-Discs, I was listening to the Freddie Hubbard Mosaic box of his BlueNote records. Although not quite as awe-inspiring as the Shorter and Hancock records of the same time, they are really impressive... IMHO.
	🕰 ♥ 7:50pm Listener Gregory: ↳ northguineahills @7:45 Houston! That is extreme.
	🕰 ♥ 7:53pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:50 Spent a lot of time with that box...
	♥ 7:56pm coelacanth∅: i liked the galloping gourmet, as a child. then when i saw...experienced Julia Child i wondered if she was Graham Kerr's alter ego...
	🕰 ♥ 7:57pm DJ Peter: I love Hubbard's Blue Note records but I agree that comparing them to Shorter, Hancock, Hutcherson he maybe doesn't stand out. But don't forget he was a sideman on many of those records Just in 1964: Art Blakey's Free for All Dolphy's Out to Lunch Hancock's Empyrean Isles Shorter's Speak No Evil
	🕰 ♥ 7:58pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @7:56 I remember watching Galloping Gourmet with my mom... but Child! So weird (in the best way)! What a character!
	🕰 ♥ 7:58pm newton: ↳ coelacanth∅ @7:56 style not substance. Once when he made a cake he put the batter in the greased and floured pan, and drunkenly picked it up and dropped it flat onto the counter, loud, saying it was a technique to assure it rose. I then tried the same "technique" and got in trouble, without even being drunk!
	🕰 ♥ 7:59pm newton: and it did not rise
	🕰 ♥ 7:59pm newton: chocolate cement
	🕰 ♥ 8:00pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @7:57 And they were side musicians on his records.
	🕰 ♥ 8:00pm DJ Peter: ↳ newton @7:59 yum
	♥ 8:00pm coelacanth∅: ↳ newton @7:59 multi-purpose cement
	♥ 8:02pm coelacanth∅: ↳ newton @7:59 worked great for stone walls and such, but could only take so much nibbling.
	♥ 8:06pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DJ Peter @7:58 i was either already a vegetarian or planning to be, the first time i saw Julia Child in action. i was torn between my fascination and a fondness of her looniness, and her blatant disrespect for animals.
	🕰 ♥ 8:07pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Blackbird" by "Freddie Hubbard" Back again. This might be the earliest Kenny Barron I've heard?
	8:08pm ?: ↳ adamdoesit @8:07 8:08 pm?
	🕰 ♥ 8:09pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @8:07 quite possibly! he did record with Yusef Lateef and Dizzy Gillespie before this
	8:12pm Listener Gregory: Funny… I heard this Mingus song start and became convinced it was an Ellington tune. (I actually know the song from the Changes record.)
	🕰 ♥ 8:14pm DJ Peter: ↳ @8:08 The Laughing Clock has mixed feelings about this joke
	♥ 8:18pm coelacanth∅: timing in comedy is no laughing matter.
	🕰 ♥ 8:19pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:18 apt as always! lol
	🕰 ♥ 8:22pm newton: there is one piano key that sounds to me like one string is out of tune, is it my ear or does anyone else hear it?
	🕰 ♥ 8:23pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "For Harry Carney" by "Charles Mingus" Mingus' ALS would've been pretty advanced by this point. He plays astonishingly well considering.
	♥ 8:24pm Deano de los Muertos: Loving the show, Peter!
	🕰 ♥ 8:25pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @8:23 Indeed. He was not yet diagnoses but was suffering and didn't really have the use of one leg by this point. The Mingus release has the best liner notes of any of the Responance issues, IMHO
	🕰 ♥ 8:26pm DJ Peter: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @8:24 gratified! glad you're here!
	🕰 ♥ 8:26pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @8:25 Did you write them?
	🕰 ♥ 8:29pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:26 ha! no! But I really respect Brian Priestly. The Ricky Ford and Jack Walrath reminiscenses are insightful, and there's a good essay on the context of Mingus's reception in Argentina.
	♥ 8:31pm Filip: Awesome show! Thank you!!! From under the Mt Blanc... burning midnight oil...
	🕰 ♥ 8:33pm DJ Peter: ↳ Filip @8:31 Cool! Thanks for chiming in!
	♥ 8:33pm Charlie: Hi Peter, drummerstream listeners! I'll be filling in for Mike Lupica tonight. Stay tuned! Join me: wfmu.org...
	🕰 ♥ 8:35pm DJ Peter: ↳ Charlie @8:33 Nothing doing, Charlie!
	♥ 8:40pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Charlie @8:33 i was hoping for coconut cream but…. ; )
	🕰 ♥ 8:42pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Passion Dance" by "Kahil El' Zabar's Ethnic Herit... the cover of compared to what on this is top notch, one of my favorite versions of one of my favorite standards
	🕰 ♥ 8:45pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "Passion Dance" by "Kahil El' Zabar's Ethnic Herit... It says Zabar's, but I don't hear any rugelach.
	♥ 8:45pm Charlie: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:40 tom tom, we've got all the fillings and fixin's
	♥ 8:47pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Charlie @8:45 i’m sure…. better than julia child….
