WFMU RADIO: Give The Drummer Some 07/11/14

Listener comments!

🥁

8:44am listener james from westwood:

Good morning all! Helluva GIF!!

8:46am Doug Schulkind:

I completely agree, Listeners James, but are you pronouncing it "GIF" or "GIF"? This is important!

🥁

8:48am listener james from westwood:

I suspect I'm wrong, but I am team "DJIF." It is my shibboleth. Or GIFoleth.

🥁

8:49am listener james from westwood:

With the looping he's almost more circulatory than pulmonary in action.

8:49am Doug Schulkind:

Choosey listeners choose DJIF!

🥁

8:50am listener james from westwood:

Ah, that explains my soft-G bias. Childhood PBJs!

8:50am Jeff Golick:

What's the reason behind the elevated bell on his trumpet? Have always wondered about that.

Mornin'.

8:51am Doug Schulkind:

He can go like this forever. He is breathing through his ears.

8:53am Doug Schulkind:

Upward bent mornin' to you, Jeff Golick!

8:55am glenn:

i would bet it's because the mike was overhead.

8:56am glenn:

but what do i know?

8:56am Overhead Mike:

Someone talkin' about me?

8:56am Parq:

I once saw a film of him doing a children's presentation. He got a big kick out of the fact that the kids got a big kick out of his puffing cheeks.

8:57am ndbob:

morning Doug and everyone!

8:57am ndbob:

Only here briefly this morning - have a medical issue to take care of - but back sometime later

8:58am Doug Schulkind:

@Parq
Kids love puffins!

Morning, ndbob!

🥁

9:00am listener james from westwood:

ndbob, do be well. Same story, but I'll need to duck out, with regrets, during UM's show.

🥁

9:00am duke:

Good Morning all and sundry

9:01am Parq:

First one to say that "Puffing Cheeks" would be a good stripper name has to do the dishes.

9:01am Doug Schulkind:

I think you mean "Fridry," duke.

9:02am ausmanx:

it's bloody cold down here

9:02am Stanley:

Drummers!

9:02am Doug Schulkind:

Hope all goes swimmingly, ndbob.

9:02am Gypsy Rose Lee:

Meh.

🥁

9:03am duke:

Wasn't H.R. Puffncheeks a 70's kid's show?

9:03am doca:

Morning, Doug, Parq, duke, james, ndbob, glenn, Jeff G., ausmanx, and whoever appears here

9:03am Doug Schulkind:

Ausmanx! Stanley! Gypy RL! (Better Meh than meth, I always say.)

Doca!

9:03am ndbob:

ty ty - swimmingly fits well actually - my ear has been clogged for 2 weeks - s i will try out one of the clinics here

9:06am glenn:

that's a whole lot of dinky.

9:07am ausmanx:

i am picturing the deejay stepping elegantly around the studio

9:08am Doug Schulkind:

Oh I hate that ndbob. I get clogged ears very easily. If earwax was an energy source, I could illuminate Cincinnati for a year.

@ausmanx
Your DJ is stepping gaily, if not quite elegantly.

9:08am ndbob:

Well let me go and get this over with - catch what I miss on the archive

🥁

9:12am listener james from westwood:

ausmanx, I'll trade you. We could house-sit each other's domiciles and get a dose of the opposite season.

9:15am Alex In Illinois:

I once tried to burn earwax when I was a kid. I failed Why do they call it a wax? At least I did not try to shine a car with it. I heard the story behind Dizzy's trumpet is that early on, a trumpet of his got bent that way by accident, and he did not have time or money to get it straightened, so that became is trademark eve since. I don't play trumpet, but I have been told that most trumpet teachers say not to puff your cheeks when playing.

9:15am glenn:

i'm switching my world cup allegiance from germany to argentina, just because pope francis is kinda cool, and former pope benedict is a giant douche.

9:16am still b/p:

I bought the ear drops to do the self-wax-attack, but I ain't got 'round to it yet. I had no idea when I got up a while ago I'd be reporting that publicly this morning.

9:16am Alex In Illinois:

I just use Hydrogen Peroxide on a swab.

9:17am Doug Schulkind:

Hey-oo, Alex! I think you are right on all three points: (1) Not flammable (2) Bent by accident (3) Don't puff

9:18am Parq:

Still b/p, as usual, your perspective on things is a resource to treasure.

9:18am ausmanx:

i hear it's a tad warm there, listener james... we always want what we havenae got!

9:22am Doug Schulkind:

@glenn
I am rooting for Pope Messi.

9:23am doca:

El Messias

9:23am doca:

Argentinians already have D10s, the Pope, and now they have the Messias. It is a soccer theocracy.

9:28am Parq:

Wait, I meant Glenn for his World Cup comment. But in general, my opinion of SBP's perspicacity stands.

9:28am ausmanx:

and don't forget Angel di Maria

9:29am glenn:

still, if it goes to penalty kicks, i'm going to go all elvis presley-hating-robert goulet and shoot a television.

9:29am Doug Schulkind:

Just had to close my studio windows. The neighbor is leafblowin' again. #stupidhumans

9:29am Uncle Michael:

Good morning, hill and gully riders.

9:30am Parq:

Doug, how 'bout rooting for Pope Sicola?

9:31am doca:

@ausmanx: that's true.
@Jeff G: if you're interested, here's Knausgaard on soccer and Angel di Maria: "looks like Kafka, plays like a dream" www.newrepublic.com...

9:34am doca:

I remember Monica once posted this on a show she made during the Conclave img3.wikia.nocookie.net...

9:35am holland oats:

drumma! peoples! THANK GOD IT'S DIZZY!

9:35am glenn:

speaking of coco, here's the coco crisp garden gnome. oaklandathletics.tumblr.com...

🥁

9:36am listener james from westwood:

Super first set! And we've many more to come!

9:36am ausmanx:

di Maria is the reason i tipped Argentina to win all those weeks ago, not Messi. so he'd better play in the final! apologies to dedicated leaf blowers out there, but those things really are just about the stupidest appliances on the planet

9:40am Doug Schulkind:

Hiya Uncle Six Hours!

Morning, Holland OOOOats!

@ausmanx
What about Mascherano's health? Not a pleasant injury suffered he!

9:40am Sleepless Zombie:

Good morning, Drummer Circle

9:42am doca:

Hey, Gary

9:42am Doug Schulkind:

I've got a Samba Zombie coming up later, Sleepless Z!

9:42am doca:

Let me ask you, guys, has anyone ever went to Buenos Aires? I'm going in two weeks, first time there (although it is really close to Porto Alegre)

9:45am Gary:

I have Daido Moriyama's Buenos Aires (a great book), and that's as close as I've ever been. Jealous! I'd love to go down there someday

9:48am still b/p:

Allan Sherman: "Yasha got a bottle of Geritol, Geritol, Geritol..."

9:48am ausmanx:

mascherano's had a brilliant tournament. but he used to play for Liverpool, therefore deserves as much pain as possible...

🥁

9:50am duke:

Great set

9:50am doca:

@Gary: didn't know Moriyama, but that seems like a superb book. I'm looking forward for book and record stores over there...

🥁

9:53am listener james from westwood:

Always dig old airchecks with sponsors and live performers.

9:53am Doug Schulkind:

@ausmanx
Suarez is leaving Liverpool. Chew on THAT!

9:54am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener James
I have all those great Hank Williams Mother's Best radio shows. Stunning stuff.

9:56am Alex In Illinois:

@Doug & Ausmanx:
Just in case a device that unnecessarily stirs up dust and gravel and allergens is not bad enough, it has to be as loud as a chainsaw AND be powered by fossil fuels and produce carbon monoxide!

9:58am Doug Schulkind:

Hitting the trifecta, Alex!

🥁

9:58am listener james from westwood:

@Alex: Yech. Fighting allergies AND a rash AND some eye thing here. The addition of a factor like that would bring me out with a bat.

9:58am holland oats:

Contented Cows!

9:59am Doug Schulkind:

Blessings upon the sound engineer who introduced a wee echo on this Almeda gem!

10:00am Gary:

@doca: www.moriyamadaido.com...

10:01am Doug Schulkind:

@holland oats
The Contented Cows once opened for The Counting Crows. #onlyinmydreams

10:01am ausmanx:

are the Mothers Best discs good? i've contemplated them in the past and shied away, overwhelming...

10:01am northguineahills:

I know I have this Riddle kicking around somewhere....

10:02am Gary:

Wait ... being a gypsy queen is an actual *thing*?

10:03am Doug Schulkind:

@ausmanx
I think they are wonderful. But you have to make sure you get the complete radio shows with all the between-song banter and live-read commercials. The Williams family only authorized the release of the edited radio shows...

10:04am Alex In Illinois:

This is from the Ozarks!? Amazing! I guess there must have been some Scotch-Irish migration from the Appalachians!

10:06am still b/p:

Talk about instrusive noise -- I was on one of our harbor islands recently when a local attorney's racing boat was zipping and RRROARING around. Its insane, ugly, remakably big-radius noise reached many miles of nearby coast, disturbing and afflicting who knows how many ears. Idjit dick machine, idjit dick owner. "Listen to me and my power. You will listen to ME!"

10:08am northguineahills:

My neighbors have moved out, so I can actually listen this morning on the hi-fi, a rare treat. However, some of my tape pieces master tapes were thrown out as the new bldg mngt purged everything in the hallways.

🥁

10:10am duke:

If Sam fills in for Uncle Michael, do we call him Uncle Sam?

🥁

10:11am listener james from westwood:

@NGH: Awful. At least they never come into the units here. I'd fear for my stuff.

10:12am Alex In Illinois:

@still b/p: Cigarette boats is what we call those things in the Chicago area, and also my folks in Miami Beach call them that too. Other than assholism, they are good for drug-running.

10:12am Gary:

Love that French comp!

🥁

10:14am listener james from westwood:

@Alex, b/p: I'll bet those boats would react nicely to a Stinger missile.

10:15am Gary:

And SUPER love this Serge

10:17am Doug Schulkind:

Speaking of Serge Gainsbourg, Gary Sullivan has a extraordinary special coming up:

Hommage à Serge Gainsbourg
Wednesday, July 16th, 7pm - 10pm
on Bodega Pop Live with Gary Sullivan (on Give the Drummer Radio stream)
How better to celebrate La Fête Nationale than with a three-hour tribute to "France's answer to David Bowie, Mick Jagger and John Lennon rolled into one smoke cloud of controversy"? Prep your ears for rare tracks, covers incroyable, sweet samples & swipes — and a decent serving of the original, unimpeachable hits.

10:18am Uncle Michael:

I love this,

🥁

10:19am listener james from westwood:

Oh, yes. Good to hear Gary went forward w/ the Serge-athon!

10:19am Uncle Michael:

This is like Kankan Maggot Brain

10:21am Doug Schulkind:

Surge in Iraq, 2007 = bad
Serge on Bodega Pop Live, 2014 = good

10:22am Gary:

Digging through Sylvie Simmons' insane catalog for some rare -- or rarish, anyway -- gems :)

10:22am holland oats:

serge-ant rock?

10:23am Doug Schulkind:

Unlike that other Maggot Brain, this one was recorded outside with an amp plugged into the only electric outlet in the entire village. (Or something like that.)

10:25am Uncle Michael:

I think Eddie Hazel just plugged his guitar into the base of his skull...Matrix style.

10:27am mr c:

late to the affair dujour...

10:27am Gary:

Well, that was lovely

10:28am holland oats:

JAMAIS! JAMAIS!

10:34am Doug Schulkind:

Rise and shine, Mr. C!

10:35am ausmanx:

that kankan thing was really just amazing. but i'm off home to sleep. at least getting up at 4 a.m. here to watch football will be over soon! see you next week! thanks, doug

10:36am Doug Schulkind:

And good morning to you, northguineahills!
Good night to you, ausmanx!

10:39am Jeff Golick:

I have that premium!

10:43am Jeff Golick:

Might've missed this earlier, but does Mascherano now suffer from Puffy Cheeks?

10:45am Jeff Golick:

May be a bad rip, Doug? Try another mp3 in Traktor?

10:45am tikk:

I was so rooting for the reboot to work. Sorry Doug.

10:45am Doug Schulkind:

Not sure what demon is not inhabiting my computer. Proabably should just restart the whole thing. But that would make me cry.

10:50am Jeff Golick:

Well, it beats listening to a leaf blower.

10:51am tikk:

There's a leaf blower stream? BRB

10:51am holland oats:

pablo raking it in this morning

🥁

10:52am listener james from westwood:

Pfft. I was into leafblowercore in the 90s.

🥁

10:52am listener james from westwood:

Appendages crossed!!

10:52am holland oats:

sounds great!!! (jinx)

10:53am Doug Schulkind:

Am exhaling now.

10:54am tikk:

Rebooting is the new smacking the side of the TV set

10:55am Doug Schulkind:

Thanks for the smack of confidence, tikk!

10:55am Alex In Illinois:

I blame the troubles on the leaf blower. And maybe someone was driving a cigarette boat around the Allegany, Monongahela or Ohio rivers.

10:55am northguineahills:

What about Leafcutter John?

🥁

10:56am listener james from westwood:

Def. worth the trouble, this.

10:57am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff Golick
My first thought was, "maybe a bad rip, try another mp3 in Traktor." But then when the third different track started hiccoughing, I knew I was in troubles.

I like your "revenge of the leafblower" theory, Alex.

10:58am Doug Schulkind:

The bongo player here with Misja is Han Bennink!!!!

10:59am Doug Schulkind:

If my computer had started chopping up during the next selection I would have committed hari-kiri on the spot.

11:01am ndbob:

back - and hearing GTDS a bit better

11:01am holland oats:

never heard this AL, beautiful

11:03am Doug Schulkind:

This rare Abbey Lincoln just got posted the other day. Really knocking me the fuck right out!! Here it is: republicofjazz.blogspot.com...

11:04am Doug Schulkind:

Welcome back, ndbob!

11:04am holland oats:

cool beans thx

11:06am ndbob:

ty ty - ears all irrigated - and on ear drop antibiotics

11:07am Uncle Michael:

Thanks for that link, Sir Douglas.

11:07am Doug Schulkind:

At the blog that posted the Abbey Lincoln record, they make it a little confusing to get to the download. Just click on the album cover art to get the link.

11:10am Doug Schulkind:

The last time I got antibiotics for my ears was in New York on September 10, 2001. I was supposed to come back in to have them checked the next day. Even if I could have made it in to the doctor, he wouldn't have been there. He was at a nearby hospital on call for the mad rush of injured. A few days later, when I did get in to see the doctor, he told me not one person was brought in to the emergency room.

11:11am northguineahills:

I've never seen Han Bennink play bongos, but I bet it's a riot.

🥁

11:13am listener james from westwood:

@Doug: ::shudder:: Once I got home from Midtown to NJ that day, I recall seeing a shot on TV of lots of healthcare workers outside St. Vincent's and not one ambo or patient. Sickening.

11:13am Doug Schulkind:

@northguineahills
Have you ever seen Han Bennink play cheese? www.webinapage.com...

11:14am Jeff Golick:

@Doug: does he play any Blues?

11:14am Jeff Golick:

(Sorry for such a Stilton joke.)

11:15am Doug Schulkind:

9/11 was a Tuesday and I missed my next show on that Friday due to my ear problem. I felt so horrible not being on the air that week. Mostly horrible, but also relieved some.

OK, back to Jeff Golick's cheese jokes!!

11:16am Doug Schulkind:

Evan Parker on leafblower here!

11:16am Uncle Michael:

Golick, you're some sort of muenster.

11:17am ndbob:

wow Doug

11:18am still b/p:

Ya got a hard bop version of Waxies' Dargle for ndbob?

🥁

11:18am βrian:

Did someone say "fromage?"

11:19am Gary:

Did they not catch the snake yet?

11:20am Doug Schulkind:

It's on the plane.

11:20am Dean:

Cheese jokes require bouzouki accompaniment.

11:20am ndbob:

Ha b/p!

11:20am Doug Schulkind:

Merry Isthmus, βrian!

11:20am Dean:

Bloody bouzouki, to be precise.

🥁

11:24am βrian:

Merci, Doug. May your rind be sturdy and your center gooey and fragrant.

11:25am Alex In Illinois:

Burkina Faso used to be Upper Volta. Ivory Coast still goes by Ivory Coast, but in French.

11:25am Doug Schulkind:

Dean, you are truly the Dean of all the listeners!

11:27am Doug Schulkind:

Earlier, when we heard the Spirit of Memphis Quartet sing "Ezekiel Saw the Wheel a-Rollin'," I think maybe they were referring to a nice wheel of brie.

🥁

11:28am βrian:

I once sang that one in Chorale. What a blast!

11:29am Doug Schulkind:

Give the Drummer Radio Programming Alert...
Sneaking up on you like the shadow of your imaginary friend, it's HINKY DINKY TIME WITH UNCLE MICHAEL! Please join Uncle Michael over here at the top of the hour: wfmu.org... (Imaginary tea sets will be provided!)

🥁

11:36am listener james from westwood:

Eye without a face
Eats the human race
An eye without a face...

11:36am Stanley:

Congo baby!

11:37am Doug Schulkind:

I believe the correct spelling is Congobaby!

11:38am Jeff Golick:

Living the highlife over heah in my office chair.

11:39am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff Golick
Un-Yoked, as it were.

11:39am Doug Schulkind:

Yes, of course. Silly mistake. Thanks Alex.

11:39am Jeff Golick:

Stop with the yokes already. I'm going to pull somepun.

11:41am Jeff Golick:

Perhaps my Mascheranus.

11:42am Jeff Golick:

Golick OUT.

::hangs head in abject shame::

11:45am Parq:

Dang, that's good advice, Peg.

11:47am Doug Schulkind:

From cheese jokes to tuchus jokes. Nice, Golick.

Did yet say HELLO, Parq! Well just in case—hello, Parq!

11:49am Dean:

Wait. Wasn't "Mascheranus" that silly dance hit video from the '90s featuring the two older guys?

11:50am Doug Schulkind:

Yes, Dean, it absolutely was.

11:51am Jeff Golick:

I think that was the Marscapona.

11:51am Uncle Michael:

Your shame is a sham.

11:52am still b/p:

No, no it was the one by The Knack --

"Ma-ma-ma-ma-scheranus.."

11:53am Gary:

Very boss!

11:54am Jeff Golick:

It's true, @UM. And I have no sham!

🥁

11:55am listener james from westwood:

It's a travesty of a mockery of a sham!

11:55am Doug Schulkind:

Soon, I shall play the vocal version of Sarah Webster Fabio's track, the instrumental of which I use as my show's opening theme. Soon!

11:55am Uncle Michael:

I have a gub.

11:56am Jeff Golick:

I'm into leather.

11:57am still b/p:

This is nice...also Spill the Wine-y.

Find another line of work, Starkwell.

11:57am Parq:

Hello, Doug! (We have exchanged pleasantries this morning already, but I will never turn down more.) Hope L's BD was a blast. It's a cliche to mention how fast they grow up, but mine turns 24 next month. Just saying.

12:00pm Doug Schulkind:

24. Wowza! 14 is mind- (and leaf)blowing enough for me.

12:00pm ndbob:

excellent show Doug!

12:00pm Uncle Michael:

See you all in the next room. Great show today, Doug. Thank you.

12:00pm Stanley:

Yeah baby!
Doug its been a cool scene.
You take care now and we'll hook up again.

Peeps - later.

🥁

12:01pm listener james from westwood:

Thanks most kindly for the super show, Doug!

12:01pm Parq:

Uncle M, getting ready to coax my cranky internet connection through the switch from P to T.

12:01pm Gary:

Thanks for the fab tunes, Doug!

12:02pm Jeff Golick:

Mine turns 10 tomorrow. Enough already!

Ta-hanx Doug!

12:02pm holland oats:

12:03pm Doug Schulkind:
