Listener comments!

8:03am duke:

Got my eye on you!

8:18am Doug Schulkind:

See me, hear me, feel me, um, hear me

8:46am Van in DC:

I think that eyeball is starting to hypnotize me. Or scare me. Or both. Good morning Doug.

8:47am chris in durban:

8:48am glenn:

8:49am Doug Schulkind:

Thanks to Chris in Durban: Much riches from Electric Jive (electricjive.blogspot.com) in today's opening set.

8:49am Doug Schulkind:

I heard that, glenn.

8:51am Doug Schulkind:

Eye mean, eye heard that.

8:52am glenn:

eye got it.

8:53am Doug Schulkind:

Do not be afraid, Van. Do not be very afraid! (Good morning.)

8:54am glenn:

this must be the eyedes of june.

8:55am Van in DC:

Is this the Harps of Fucshia Kalmia by chance?

8:57am Doug Schulkind:

Your question makes me smile, Van. No, this is Gender Wayang Pemarwan from Indonesia. Music for shadow puppetry. But it totally COULD BE Harps of Fucshia Kalmia.

8:58am listener james from westwood:

happy friday all! good june, doug, and all under the watchful eye of the drummer!

8:59am Parq:

OH MY GOD IT'S TRUE, MY COMPUTER IS SPYING ON ME!

8:59am ndbob:

morning Doug and everyone!

9:00am texas scott:

that eye IS FREAKIN'ME OUT,MAN!
too much blood in my caffeine system,i spose.
hola,fiends of the DRUMMER.

9:00am jk:

morning Doug, morning everyone. very nice eye you have there

9:01am Doug Schulkind:

LJFW and Parq, the Ruth and Gehrig, the Lincoln and Jefferson, the green and the orange M&Ms!

Morning jk. How'r you reeling?

9:02am jk:

barely a sore throat at all, I haven't left the house since monday afternoon. I'm miles better because of it, thanks!

9:02am ndbob:

I may have to bow out today... the eyeball is really bothering me

9:02am holland oats:

this is starting to look like one of ken's playlist pages

9:04am Doug Schulkind:

I lent this gif to Ken a few months back. As with so many things, Ken has revolutionized the way we watch radio.

Sorry for the creepiness, ndbob. Think of the eye as your friend.

9:05am still b/p:

A nice cup of malocchio plus in the mornin' for the Drummer's droogs!

9:06am Doug Schulkind:

Eye, what eye Scott? I don't see any eye.

9:10am Van in DC:

We are swimming in music while Doug watches over us.

9:10am ndbob:

sorry Doug - I'm going to have to skip today's show.. I have company on Tuesday, but I should be back as normal next Friday

9:10am Doug Schulkind:

Our friend does have a very Clockwork Orange vibe, still b/p.

9:12am Parq:

There is what looks, at quick glance at least, to be a very nifty piece by Burgess on said dystopian novel in this week's New Yorker Sci Fi issue.

9:13am Parq:

Firefox spellcheck doesn't take "dystopian". The wonder of it all.

9:16am Webhamster Henry:

Good morning Dog! << name tag from an old Record Fair
More Africa!

9:16am Andrew:

Currently picturing my co-workers dancing gracefully around the office to this one...

9:16am listener james from westwood:

count your blessings; it could've been the eyeball from "un chien andalou"!

9:16am Doug Schulkind:

I promise not to eat you, Van.

Morning Henry!

9:19am Doug Schulkind:

@Andrew so few of us have co-workers who could be characterized as "graceful." You are blessed.

@LJFW, or it could be the "eyeball" on the cover of that Tom Zé record. (Hint: It is not an eyeball.)

9:19am ndbob:

I see that the playlist is covering it up enough

9:21am Paul Sherratt:

" Turkish rawk, South African fonk, gospel skronk, broody jazz, & some classic eyelife " ?

9:23am Doug Schulkind:

And where've you been eyeding, Paul?!

9:24am Paul Sherratt:

Doug,
In Fibbers

9:25am listener james from westwood:

non sequitur: ran across a reference in the book i'm publishing to an author named schmuck. even better, he's a shrink. "dr. schmuck, i presume?"

9:26am Paul Sherratt:

Fibbers, York ( the old one ) along with a couple of dozen old souls and Johnny Dowd

9:27am Doug Schulkind:

Here is that Tom Zé album cover with the "eyeball." See if you can guess what you're really looking at:

i.imgur.com...

9:27am Parq:

There's a guy, fairly prominent, in my field who's surname is "Greathead". No doubt, much like the boy named Sue, he was forced to develop a right hook like a wrecking ball.

9:28am Michael:

Hey Doug and others - love this track some...

9:29am Doug Schulkind:

Morning Michael!

9:32am still b/p:

Album - Mouth marble.

9:32am Hugo:

Seen I (as they say in Jamaica)

9:33am monica:

good morning, doug! summery sounds abound. many thanks.

9:33am listener james from westwood:

john boehner's official portrait!

9:35am chris in durban:

your pronounciation is impressive Doug!

9:37am ndbob:

actually not Doug

9:40am Doug Schulkind:

Hello Ms. Monica!

still b/p, that IS a marble but, um, it's not a mouth. (Please clear young children from the room.)

9:41am ndbob:

meaning you don't sound tired

9:43am still b/p:

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
A little cold, I'll bet.

9:43am Doug Schulkind:

ndbob, glad to hear it. I feel like a lead soccer ball.

9:49am Doug Schulkind:

Eye and eye, as they say in Jamaica, Hugo.

9:55am Hugo:

Seen I, Doug. I and I belong to the righteous people!

10:01am sinner:

...let the Church say amen....

10:02am ndbob:

This collection is great in general

10:02am Doug Schulkind:

A set dedicated to you, Brother Sinner.

10:03am Paul Sherratt:

The Rev's my favourite ' C. L. ' of the two. The other one's a Blast, mind you.

Hello from the UK, sinner man !

10:04am still b/p:

Speaking (and singing) of preachification...Was watching vintage Billy Graham for a while the other day. Theatrical physical intensity was interesting, since in my lifetime he's been a middle aged or elder figure whom I've rarely seen performing in his prime or doing his main game thing.
And also, it did not....sound like this

10:04am Andrew:

Man, it sounds like chaos in that church. They're falling over the pews, crying, screaming, fainting!

10:06am sinner:

Thanks, Doug. It helps with the grant writing..
Hi Paul! Lets have a pint one of these days.

10:06am Paul Sherratt:

Great name, Ethel Profit.

10:09am Holly in NC:

Hi Doug & all! Happy Friday! I know what that Tom Zé cover is, but think you should have the er, honor of explaining.....

10:10am Hugo:

Going to church was never like this!

10:16am Paul Sherratt:

Kevin sinner man,
Good idea, but should we meet half-way ?

10:19am Paul Sherratt:

Holly, I don't think that picture was taken with a fundus camera ...

10:20am Doug Schulkind:

Hello dear Holly! That Tom Zé cover presents, as you know, a marble deployed strategically where the sun definitely do not shine.

10:21am sinner:

....Nova Scotia??...nice fiddle tradition there.

10:26am still b/p:

I think I love this song and its title.

10:31am Paul Sherratt:

Kevin, I remember Gander airport being a fun place at four in the morning during February. But that's Newfoundland.

10:36am sinner:

....NewFoundland! That's right. My bad. We can go swimming...

10:39am Van in DC:

love the Thai music, even in talkover form :)

10:40am Paul Sherratt:

Doug, do you have eye drops ready for the second half of the show ?

10:46am Doug Schulkind:

Van, you are my Thai connection. Paul, I have only nose drops, sorry.

10:53am Doug Schulkind:

PROGRAMMING ALERT...
Immediately following Give the Drummer Some, I will be hosting another A ROUGH MIX program from Steinski.

The playlist/comments for that show will be here:
bit.ly...

11:11am Brian in UK:

Afternoon Boss, taxi work, any messages?

11:11am Van in DC:

Interesting piece that was. Made me look Breuker up...apparently this was a live performance... wanted to know who that trombonist was :)

http://wbk.home.xs4all.nl/disco70-74_WB.html

11:15am Carmichael:

Good morning Doug and drum circle buddies.

11:17am Merv:

I had to look up Breuker too, really great track there... Doesn't appear to be in print and no links that I could find... :(

11:17am Brian in UK:

Bugarian?

11:18am Doug Schulkind:

Romanian.

11:19am Brian in UK:

Close but no Czar!!

11:20am Doug Schulkind:

Merv, the folks behind the Instand Composers Pool are reissuing the entire catalog in one box. It will cost a ridiculously unaffordable amount of $$. A few blogs that had been posting ICP stuff (including the music I played) have voluntarily removed their posts in deference to the new reissue. The thing is, if enough pre-orders for the box aren't made, they won't do the project. It's their right, of course, but it's kinda crazy.

11:21am Brian in UK:

Pinch, punch first of the month. No returns.

11:21am Doug Schulkind:

Hiya Carmichael, feel free to bang on something.

11:22am Merv:

Yikes! Best of luck to them... If I had the money to spend...

11:22am Van in DC:

Wow, that sure was nice of them.

11:23am Carmichael:

Rabbit rabbit rabbit.

11:25am Doug Schulkind:

Here is that ICP box. It contains 50 CDs and 3 DVDs. Absurd, really.

11:26am dc pat:

[I'll just slip into my seat while the teacher's back is turned...]

11:26am Carmichael:

How much is it, Doug? $47,286.28?

11:30am dc pat:

What? I've been here the whole time. ahem, so this is Oriental Rock and Roll, eh?

11:31am Paul Sherratt:

dc pat, here quick, copy my notes ..

11:31am Webhamster Henry:

This Daddy Lolo used to be a WFMU fave!

11:32am dc pat:

[...thanks Paul.....] What a great show today!

11:32am Doug Schulkind:

Carmichael, the first 300 boxes will sell for $419. After that, it will cost $615.

Yah, right.

dc pat, please stay after class.

11:33am Brian in UK:

Deep in the bazaar. No eye contact.

11:34am Holly in NC:

@Carmichael! I LOVE that you follow the rabbit tradition - I thought I was the only one!

11:34am dc pat:

aw, man!....

11:35am Doug Schulkind:

Rabbit rabbit Rabbit = bit.ly...

11:38am Brian in UK:

dc pat, the old boy will have forgotten by then. Still getting over his birthday celebrations.

11:41am dc pat:

if we all leave in one big group maybe he won't notice me..

Didn't know about the rabbits thing, I'll have to hep the kids..

11:42am Holly in NC:

@ Doug - re rabbit wiki - huh! I'm of German heritage & was raised in Connecticut, & was told I' have good luck all month if I remembered to say rabbit rabbit rabbit first thing in the am on the 1st. No presents. And the unspoken threat was of bad luck if one forgot...

11:42am listener james from westwood:

doug, i'd never heard of that traditions before! my fun fact for the day.

11:43am ndbob:

Pretty amazing that Atco released something like that so early

11:44am Holly in NC:

LOTS of Willem Breuker available on Soulseek, fwiw.

11:45am dc pat:

crap, where'd I put my asafetida? Normally I just have to sniff the air but I think it's so old now its power is greatly diminished. May be time to replenish...

11:46am Carmichael:

I heard about the rabbit thing from an Englander a long time ago. Then someone here said it, and I've been doing it ever since.

11:46am Brian in UK:

dc pat, funny just bought a jar the other week, I'll put some in the post.

11:48am Paul Sherratt:

Aunt Molly to Aunt Mellie ? No, probably not but Mr Emerson requires the volume to be increased and the office productivity to be decreased ..

11:49am Van in DC:

Thanks for that tip Holly in NC

11:50am dc pat:

Make sure you double package that stuff, Brian.

11:50am kat330:

Hi, Doug and all you lovely people! I've been missing a great party clearly. And now I've learned something new: rabbitrabbitrabbit I really should have known this having been born in the year of the rabbit/cat.

11:51am ndbob:

Hi Kat!

11:51am Doug Schulkind:

Howdy kat330! Glad to have you on the jalopy.

11:51am dc pat:

oh no! a gratuitous apostrophe in my 11:45 post..I'm getting out of here before Ike shows up!

11:51am Carmichael:

Yo kat.

11:54am ndbob:

this is great -surprised i never heard it before

11:54am kat330:

I should be around for most of Steinski today. Been a busy but productive Friday morn.

11:57am Doug Schulkind:

I took care of that errant apostrophe, dc pat. We are nothing if not a full-service radio show.

Playlist for Steinski: bit.ly...

11:57am Van in DC:

Great presentation today Doug, enjoyed it, many thanks as always.

11:58am Doug Schulkind:

I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Van!

11:59am Brian in UK:

Steinski DVD arrived the other day, waiting on the other bits. Just like Christmas.

11:59am kat330:

Guess I just got some instant karma for saying I was productive. Just spilled morning coffee all over the place --NOT on the keyboard or PC thank god -- but a true mess. And there was very little in the mug, but it's Murphy's Law of Physics: a small measure of liquid will expand to a triple amount when it is inconvenient for it to do so.

12:00pm still b/p:

How nice. Little Joe wrote his own wedding vows.

12:00pm listener james from westwood:

this show kept me rolling through a teeth-grinding day. man do i ever have a lot to be thankful for in wfmu. thanks, doug!

12:00pm kat330:

I'll catch up in the archives on this, Doug, and see you on the other side (after some moments of cleaning up here....)

12:00pm Doug Schulkind:

If there was some milk in that spilt coffee—no crying! Otherwise you can bawl like a newborn.

12:01pm kat330:

No milk. Weeping here..

12:02pm ndbob:

excellent show Doug!

12:02pm Doug Schulkind:

Thanks ndbob, excellent listening!

12:03pm dc pat:

whew! Thanks Doug..

12:06pm Van in DC:
