9:17am Doug Schulkind:

I see you made it past the bouncers, duke!

9:18am Jeff Golick:

9:20am Doug Schulkind:

Will close the affair with that one, JG.

9:22am ausmanx:

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

Good luck, Jeff Golick!
It was a stunning evening, ndbob. Still goosebumpy!
There is no love like Opa Kukla Love, Gary (but you knew that).

Jesse the K!

9:39am El Thatchmo:

Thatchmo in the hizzie!

9:39am Jesse K:

Think they had an American member or lived in the US maybe?

9:42am Doug Schulkind:

@Jesse K
They recorded on MGM, for goodness sakes! Must've been a U.S. connection.

Hey hey hey, El Thatchmo! Happy belated brothday (slurp slurp).

🥁

9:50am βrian:

Alack, I've never seen the Bosporus.

🥁

9:52am Artie Haywire:

Perfect soundtrack for my upcoming Doner Kebab Western.

🥁

9:52am Brian in UK:

Hello Doug and other playmates.

@βrian Go see the Bosphorous and the Golden Horn. You will love it. Trust me.

@Doug Alabama Fuzzy Wuzzies. Really!!

9:53am Doug Schulkind:

@βrian
You've still got time!

@Artie Haywire
I'm coming to North Carolina. Email me!

@Brian in UK
It takes one Fuzzy Wuzzy to know one, Sir.

🥁

9:56am Brian in UK:

Not sorry to see that Erdogan is getting the thin end of it. Who needs big fuck-off palaces outside of Africa.

9:56am holland oats:

Torpedo is quite the delight.

9:57am Doug Schulkind:

One could almost say explosive, holland oats.

9:57am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
I love Big Fuckoff Palaces. At least their early punk stuff, before they sold out.

🥁

10:00am Brian in UK:

Africa leads the way in nepotism. A rare form of skin disorder.

BFP became Mine's a Condo.

🥁

10:02am Brian in UK:

Doug A Hawk and a Hacksaw have played on FMU.

10:02am Andrew Waterloo:

I saw them open for Swans.

10:03am Jesse K:

excellent set!

10:04am Doug Schulkind:

Brian in UK and Andrew Waterloo, you dodging the question.

10:05am Listener Gregory:

The real question is why the label is called "A Hawk and a Hacksaw" when the quote from Hamlet is, "I am but mad north-north-west. When the wind is southerly, I know a hawk from a handsaw."

10:06am Doug Schulkind:

Listener Gregory, dropping knowledge! (but still dodging the question).

🥁

10:07am Artie Haywire:

A hacksaw to cut the bars of our mental prison cell windows. A hawk to show us the ways of the air currents and teach us how to see as our minds soar above the earth.

10:07am ausmanx:

i'm assuming it's part of an avian magician's show...

🥁

10:08am Artie Haywire:

Oh but what a mess was made when we tried to hide that hawk in a cake to sneak it past the guards.

10:08am Doug Schulkind:

Thanks for taking a hack at it, Artie Haywire!

🥁

10:11am Brian in UK:

It is chop logic to quote Willy the Shake. No help I know.

🥁

10:11am duke:

Lee "Hacksaw" Hamilton announcing play by play for the Seattle SeaHAWKs en.wikipedia.org...

10:13am Jaznads:

Must get Italian soundtrack music!

10:13am Evan in NC:

Morning, all! This set is making my morning emailing/spreadsheet work feel a lot more cinematic. Thanks for the soundtrack!

10:18am Doug Schulkind:

You're hearing the voices, too, Jaznads!

Morning Evan in NC!

10:19am Doug Schulkind:

Nice work duke!

10:23am Jesse K:

Doug, you're killing me this morning I can't get any work done. I have to walk just down the hall to the printer but I can't leave this set.

10:23am Doug Schulkind:

The thing about this music: IT'S COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE!!!!!

10:24am Doug Schulkind:

@Jesse K
Killing me is an interesting choice of words, considering many of these are from horror flicks.

🥁

10:25am Brian in UK:

Must admit I never watch horror ficks. Why go out of your way to be frightened when everyday things do such a good job.

10:27am Stanley:

Pleasantly wandering into Explorer's Room territory methinks with that last one

10:32am Jesse K:

HI!

10:33am hyde:

awwww, man. I missed everything up to the giallo set because they said it was going to rain, so I figured I'd go out and weed until it rained. AND THEN IT NEVER RAINED!

10:34am Doug Schulkind:

Weed ruins a lot in our lives, hyde. Just say no.

🥁

10:35am Brian in UK:

@hyde use the toilet like the rest of us!!

10:35am βrian:

Horror flicks? Was the Tenant a horror flick? That was a good one.

10:36am hyde:

the thing about weeds is that they've evolved to live in disturbed soil. so you go out and pull them up, thus disturbing the soil and creating a perfect weed growing environment. you can't win.

10:37am Doug Schulkind:

Fuck weeds, hyde.

10:38am hyde:

@βrian i'd say it was. the book too, which is also great.

10:39am hyde:

weeds do sorta suck. but i admit a grudging admiration. more delicate species just fade away, but suckers like crabgrass will be here long after we are gone.

10:41am βrian:

"A weed is a plant whose virtue has yet to be discovered." (Or some such.)

🥁

10:42am βrian:

Wow, I just got sucked up into the auditory vortex. Was that just the stream?

🥁

10:43am Brian in UK:

I see that US attorneys are filling their boots now; being hired by top FIFA officials even though no charges are filed yet. This one will run and run.

10:43am Alex In Illinois:

Then there is the other approach: Instead of having a lawn, have a "meadow" planted with completely native grasses and plants, and just don't maintain it. Here in Oak Park, there are a few households that do it that way. Some of those native plants are considered weeds for most lawn owners, but just part of the "meadow".

10:43am Doug Schulkind:

I think it was a slasher from the previous attacking the poor Peruvians. Ouch!

10:43am hyde:

@βrian: heh, I heard that too. true. also some weeds are delicious, a lot of my purslane and lamb's quarter will end up in salad.

🥁

10:45am Brian in UK:

Great set, Doug.

10:45am Doug Schulkind:

"Meadow" is a nice bit of semantic hocus-pocus, Alex in Illinois!

10:46am Doug Schulkind:

You back from the vortex yet, βrian?

10:46am hyde:

@Alex that's actually what i'm working on. i turned over a big chunk of my lawn to local plants like coneflowers, black eyed susan, tickseed, queen anne's lace, sunflowers and shasta daisies. it'll be good once it all takes, but for now I need to fight off the crabgrass and clover a bit.

10:46am Jeff g. at eye doc:

What I don't know about weeds and plants would fill many many meadows.

I can sweep a mean stoop, though.

10:49am Doug Schulkind:

You stoop do conquer, Jeff Golick

10:52am chromaphone:

What a sensitive and beautiful use of synthesizer :)

10:58am Alex In Illinois:

@Hyde: I guess I am glad that I still live in a condo for now. I guess going native is not as easy as some folks make it sound. Crab grass is a bummer.

10:58am Doug Schulkind:

You are an appreciator of fine things, chromaphone!

11:00am Alex In Illinois:

I liked the Gegaw, or Jaw harp, or Jews Harp or Guimbard or whatever you want to call it that was in that Recuerdame track.

11:01am Cecile:

the rasta train never runs on time, but nobody cares

11:02am Stanley:

Weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth indeed!

11:02am Doug Schulkind:

Guimbard? Guimard! Thanks for learning me a new one, Alex in Illinois!

Cecile! Cecile!

11:03am Doug Schulkind:

They do a lot of weeding on the Rasta Train, methinks.

11:03am Mark Williams:

if it's on the "soon come" schedule, it's never late!

11:03am Doug Schulkind:

Mark Williams has arrived! Hand the gent a Red Stripe and a comfy pillow!

11:04am Mark Williams:

a second Red Stripe? why thank you...

11:05am Alex In Illinois:

@Doug: I misspelled that. There is supposed to be an e at the end: guimbarde

11:06am Doug Schulkind:

Guimbarde it is! All hail the guimbarde!

11:06am Mark Williams:

it would be interesting to make a list of all the studio production sounds of the last half century and line up all the distinctive drum sounds each studio/producer managed to create. Lee Perry's "Black Ark" sound in that regard is easily recognized at all times.

11:08am Goyim in the AM:

The dining car on the Rasta Train serves some of the best (dressed) chicken in town.

11:09am Doug Schulkind:

Well hey there G IN THE A! Long time, no see (read)!

11:11am Doug Schulkind:

Here (the Aura Lewis) is some more Lee Perry tastiness, Mark Williams!

11:12am Cecile:

I like the patties and fried fish myself.

11:12am Jeff g. at eye doc:

This works for me in more ways than one now.

11:12am Goyim in the AM:

Hey Doug! Been listening and listening, just not postening!

11:12am Cecile:

hahahahah

11:14am Doug Schulkind:

Goyim in the AM, well I am chuffed to know you're on board!

11:15am Mark Williams:

Orchstre Poly-Rhythmo were such a versatile and great band. I'm glad I got the chance to see them a few years ago.

11:16am hyde:

@ark Williams i love that idea. I love the Stax drum sound, (especially when it's Al Jacksn, Jr.). Also a big fan of the King records drum sound.

11:16am Doug Schulkind:

One of the g*r*e*a*t bands, Mark W.

11:17am Doug Schulkind:

G*r*e*a*t is even better than just plain great.

11:18am Mark Williams:

@Hyde - distinctive drum sounds are such a key part of recordings, I find. Took me a long time to realize that.

11:19am Doug Schulkind:

From a Jamaican slang glossary:

Bun:
To get cheated on; also burn, kill, and to smoke. She gi ‘im bun ka im bun whole heap a herb. (She cheated on him because he smokes a whole heap of herb.)

11:20am hyde:

@Mark Williams same here. Watusi by the Orlons is one of my all time fave r + b songs, Took me years to realize the drum track was one of the biggest reasons why.

11:22am Mark Williams:

I have a Dancehall slang dictionary, Doug. It was a whim buy and instantly offered up a few guffaws. They are not meant for mixed company, however...

11:23am Doug Schulkind:

By mixed, Mark Williams, you mean tall and short people.

11:23am Uncle Michael:

I hope you can join me in the next room for Hinky Dinky Time...yes, you.

wfmu.org...

11:24am Doug Schulkind:

GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO PROGRAMMING ALERT...
Keep your mouses unclicked and you'll get a whole new show on your Drummer Stream at the top of the hour. It's Uncle Michael's HINKY DINKY TIME, live from Topeka, KS. Provided Michael is back in from weeding in time.

Playlist: wfmu.org...

11:25am Doug Schulkind:

Whooops! Great minds hype alike, Uncle Michael!

11:29am hyde:

wow, a whole bunch of new shows? that is exciting.

11:29am Uncle Michael:

It's the unstable jump.

11:30am MrC:

It's the new thing man...

11:32am Doug Schulkind:

Literally a bunch, hyde. It's like, bananas!

🥁

11:32am Brian in UK:

@ Mark Williams I second your comment at 11:15.

Going to see Sly and Robbie plus some jazz chaps next month. That is a drummer I have been longing to see.

11:33am Cecile:

this is heavy. And surprisingly cool.

11:33am MrC:

Stein ski's Back!! A new day begins..

11:34am Goyim in the AM:

www.youtube.com...

🥁

11:34am Brian in UK:

When watching jazz trios I invariably find myself focusing on the drummer.

11:36am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
I have trained you well, my son.

🥁

11:37am Brian in UK:

Thank you master, just do not call me Asshopper.

11:39am Cecile:

this guy sounds like Phillipe Wynne.

11:40am Doug Schulkind:

Mr. Wynne: raresoul.com...

11:40am hyde:

with all the shows i already listen to on the mother ship and the drummer stream, i fear i may have to quit my job to hear everything i want to on wfmu with new stuff added in.

11:40am Cecile:

it is him?!??!

11:42am Doug Schulkind:

Nope. That was O.L. Brown singing. Just thought I'd add to your comment, Cecile!

11:42am Holly in NC:

Hi Doug & everyone! Happy Friday!

11:43am Cecile:

nice! Phillipe is awesome as was Mr. Brown.

11:43am oks:

11:44am Doug Schulkind:

11:47am Holly in NC:

Start radiation and chemo Monday :-)

11:48am hyde:

11:48am Cecile:

11:50am Holly in NC:

11:51am Doug Schulkind:

Great good news, Holly. Loving vibes always upon you.

11:56am Cecile:

11:59am Cecile:
