9:01am Jeff Golick:

#blessed

9:02am Doug Schulkind:

Howdy, ndbob!

Does that mean you used to listen undressed at a desk, Jeff Golick?

9:03am Mr C:

Here comes the judge; and Give the Drummer some too!

9:03am Maggie B.:

My favorite Friday morning sound! Good snowy morning, Doug and all Drummers.

9:03am Jeff Golick:

I'll take the Fifth on that, Doug.

9:04am Doug Schulkind:

I'll drink a fifth on that, Jeff G.

9:05am Uncle Michael:

If I FEEEEEEEL like it.

9:06am Maggie B.:

So sorry to hear this, Doug. Been there.

9:06am Uncle Michael:

You're a good boy, Doug.

9:07am ndbob:

Indeed Doug!

9:08am Doug Schulkind:

Thanks, Maggie. Yup, my turn is now.

🥁

9:08am doctorjazz:

Wow, busy thread at 9:08 AM...hi all!

9:09am Ed Wood:

Sorry to hear about your mother, hope your visit goes well.

9:11am Doug Schulkind:

Thanks, Ed Wood.

Grab your flotation device and jump on in, doctorjazz!

🥁

9:17am duke:

Shirley takes a bong hit.

9:17am Mike East:

Ok I'm here. Anybody got any gum?

9:18am Doug Schulkind:

Hey duke and Mike East, we're all square dancing. You two are partners.

9:20am Jeff Golick:

qawwali is just a great lookin' word

9:20am Uncle Michael:

We're deep into the gum Arabic, Mike.

9:22am Van in DC:

Happy Friday Doug and all

9:23am Mike East:

Hey, I ain't no square. Pass the pipe, Shirley.

9:23am Doug Schulkind:

Always glad to see you, Van in DC!

9:24am Doug Schulkind:

You come for the double w, Jeff Golick, but you stay for the q without a u.

9:26am Van in DC:

Is there a sitar in this?

9:27am Doug Schulkind:

I don't think so, Van. Sounded more like a pounded-strings instrument, like a hammer dulcimer type.

9:27am Doug Schulkind:

Interesting info on the Telugu film this track comes from: en.wikipedia.org...

9:28am Van in DC:

Ah okay. I wasn't sure either. But it did remind me that I get to see Anoushka Shankar live soon here

9:30am Gary:

Wow, this Ranjani track is groovy

9:35am glenn:

mmmmm. aroused?

9:36am glenn:

ooops. ummmmm.

9:38am Doug Schulkind:

Not that there's anything wrong with that, glenn.

9:39am Jeff Golick:

Walking through the snowy streets of Mineola this morning, my brass was kind of frozen, too.

ba-ZING.

9:41am Doug Schulkind:

Snowy Streets of Mineola. Isn't that a Billy Joel record?

9:41am Uncle Michael:

Lefty Frizell, I think.

9:44am Parq:

Joining the club. Mariachi music and that Shirley gif make for a very, well, interesting combination.

🥁

9:45am Brian in UK:

Hello Doug.

Who said Shirley more like Bogart with that pipe. Give the Sioux a pull.

9:45am Jeff Golick:

Now that's what I call a headline: www.washingtonpost.com...

🥁

9:46am Brian in UK:

What a boy named Sioux, some mistoke.

9:46am Doug Schulkind:

It's all about peace, Parq.

@Brian in UK
That is fellow is a medicine man. That is some medicinal herb.

9:47am Doug Schulkind:

From weeding to wedding, eh, Jeff Golick!

9:50am Jeff Golick:

Shrimp...plate...plate o'shrimp. Etc.

9:50am Parq:

Jeff G, that hed made my morning.

9:50am ndbob:

Quite a story there Jeff - was reading that earlier

🥁

9:53am Brian in UK:

@Jeff did you see the advert to play a blues guitar solo in ten minutes using four notes.

9:53am Lewis:

late to the party so I am sure that I am not the first to comment on the total coolness of the gif... (well aside from the cultural stereotypes that is...)

9:54am Doug Schulkind:

Lewis!

🥁

9:55am βrian:

Just punched my way out of the trojan mannequin. Is there a seat for me?

9:55am Doug Schulkind:

The next sequence of tunes will go well with the playlist spliff, I mean GIF.

9:55am Jeff Golick:

@Brian: nope, missed that jewel.

🥁

9:56am βrian:

I wonder what modern day mixologists have done with the Shirley Temple?

9:57am Doug Schulkind:

@βrian
The Trojan Mannequin. Sounds like a Graham Greene novel. Good morning!

🥁

9:59am Brian in UK:

@Doug, it is a Ska comp for no body.

10:00am Doug Schulkind:

How come there was never a whiteboy punk-reggae band from Madison, Wisconsin, called the Skatterbrains? HOW COME?!

10:05am Lewis:

And what institution can I attend to get said Masters? looking pretty attractive at the moment!

🥁

10:07am βrian:

Watching Treme right now. Annie sets my heart to fluttering.

10:09am Doug Schulkind:

The thing I loved best about Treme, βrian, was the tons of time it gave to just letting the music play. Very smart choice.

10:10am Van in DC:

Is this it?

salsa-puramusica.blogspot.com...

🥁

10:11am βrian:

"Play for the money, boys. Play for the money."

10:12am Lewis:

Didn't know about Treme - another add to the watchlist...

10:13am Doug Schulkind:

YES, that is it, Van in DC!

10:13am mauri:

jeepers creepers where'd I put ma reefers

10:14am Doug Schulkind:

@Van in DC
Thanks for finding that! It wasn't a "real" record release, just a boot leg compilation.

10:15am Doug Schulkind:

Sorry about the weird electonic blurb. I click on a website that had a fake virus-alert warning thing. Hate those.

10:16am Van in DC:

It's a nice looking album

🥁

10:16am βrian:

@Lewis: by the same maker as The Wire, but thankfully, nowhere near as violent. And *lots* of good music.

🥁

10:17am βrian:

Oh good, I thought it was another synaptic super nova. Hate those.

10:18am Lewis:

@brian, cool - yeah was just poking around on that front. Got works stuff that is best done with the TV on as well this weekend. So looks like I am all set! Thanks

10:22am Doug Schulkind:

What do you get when you put a bomb in the kitchen?

10:24am Doug Schulkind:

Linoleum blown apart

10:26am northguineahills:

Albert Griffiths & the Gladiators new to me, how could someone on Coxsone slip under my radar!!??

10:26am holland oats:

drumma! peoples! peaceful pipers!

10:27am Mike East:

same gladiators as Trenchtown Mixup, etc, yeah?

10:27am Lane Gray:

Good morning!

10:27am Doug Schulkind:

northguineahills and holland oats! You gents make quite an entrance!

10:31am Doug Schulkind:

Good morning to you, Lane Gray!

🥁

10:36am βrian:

Criminy. Another crane collapse in NYC!

10:39am glenn:

treme is a very good show, but then again, i'll watch anything with kim dickens in it.

🥁

10:41am βrian:

"Oui, mon chef."

🥁

10:46am Brian in UK:

Just had to hose down Spencer, he rolled in something unpleasant, think it might have been a Republican hopeless, sorry hopeful.

🥁

10:46am βrian:

Is purty, Doug.

10:47am glenn:

dog whistle politics.

10:47am Doug Schulkind:

Just put me in a room with Grachan Moncur III and Roswell Rudd and I'll be happy. No, I mean like in a room forever.

🥁

10:48am Brian in UK:

Doug, linoleum has been replaced by vinyl for quite a few years now. Must be an old joke.

🥁

10:48am Artie Haywire:

Lovely.

10:49am northguineahills:

Sirone!

10:49am Doug Schulkind:

ACTUALLY
There are some Republicans who listen to this show and comment on this page. And I don't want them to feel like this is not a place for everyone. Because it is.
ACTUALLY

10:51am Jeff Golick:

Of the Cosmos does not appear at first blush to have released any other albums.

10:52am Jeff Golick:

(Not that this one album doesn't suffice as a reason for existing, mind.)

10:52am Jeff Golick:

((Doug, expect an email.))

10:55am Doug Schulkind:

Politically, I am to the left of Bernie Sanders. And personally, I have much animosity for politicians who I disagree with. But I don't want it to get "personal" with people who hold different views that want to feel welcome to participate in this gathering.

🥁

10:57am Brian in UK:

Quite right Doug, suitable chastised. One has enough numb nuts in ones own country without looking beyond ones borders for even more.

PS where is james?

🥁

11:00am Brian in UK:

Just one small point, could all this money on campaigning be spent in more useful ways.

11:01am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in Uk
The money spent on campaigning is an abomination. Not an Obama Nation (sorry).

Not sure where our dear James is. Probably neck-deep editing a manuscript.

11:05am Uncle Michael:

I figure anyone not commenting is too busy curating to do so. What they may be curating is between them...and their curator.

11:05am Van in DC:

Found that one too

www.dustygroove.com...

11:06am Jeff Golick:

Highly recommended, @Van.

11:06am northguineahills:

I loooove Derek Bailey!

🥁

11:09am doctorjazz:

1+ on the trombone duo, been heavy into Trombone for Lovers for a while now...

11:11am Van in DC:

<---- Former trombone performance major in college

11:11am Doug Schulkind:

@Van in DC
A+ on the detective work this morning!

11:16am Doug Schulkind:

@doctorjazz
I don't have Trombone for Lovers yet. It's on my list.

11:17am Lane Gray:

I've got my eyes on the road and my hands upon the wheel. And my ears on gtdr

11:18am Doug Schulkind:

@Uncle Michael
I hate it when I curate something that didn't agree with me.

11:19am Doug Schulkind:

@Lane Gray
Listen safely!

11:20am Alex In Illinois:

Sounds like a typewriter. Something that the young'uns would not know about.

11:20am Jeff Golick:

The curate is almost as bad as the disease.

11:21am Van in DC:

Hoping it's a high curate

11:22am Lane Gray:

Trombone is one of my favorite horns. Very expressive in talented hands.

🥁

11:22am βrian:

Curare? Leaves me breathless.

11:25am Carmichael:

Let's get high with Shirley! Heya Doug and stoners.

🥁

11:26am Brian in UK:

This is relentless is a very Zairean way.

🥁

11:27am Brian in UK:

Hey Carmichael, someone's at the door, it it you?

11:27am Doug Schulkind:

Soukous is so relentlessly relentless!

11:28am Doug Schulkind:

You bring any munchie refills, Carmichael.

🥁

11:28am doctorjazz:

Loving this Kasango Band track!
(relentless, but sweet)

11:29am Doug Schulkind:

Imagine the electric guitar here being a thumb piano instead. Welcome to Zimbabwean pop.

11:30am Lewis:

Damn - Shirley is still smoking that thing. She must be *completely* toasted by now...

🥁

11:34am βrian:

"Inspiring," no, Lewis?

🥁

11:34am doctorjazz:

Love those jangling, interlocking guitars

11:34am Lane Gray:

I love the Strat as rhythm instrument.

🥁

11:34am Brian in UK:

@Lewis it is that knowing smile after the toke that is scary.

11:35am Lewis:

@Brian in UK - exactly!

11:37am Carmichael:

I brought beef jerky and gummi bears. Help yourself.

11:37am Doug Schulkind:

I'm remembering all those Shirley Temples I forgot having as a kid.

🥁

11:40am Brian in UK:

Doug, any chance of Steinski coming out of hibernation. Even if he does not play any music I would be happy to hear him talk about sounds because he seems intelligent and knowing.

11:40am Doug Schulkind:

The singer just made "cried" a seven-syllable word!

11:41am Mr C:

I love the Drummer for all seasons..

11:42am Doug Schulkind:

@Brain in UK
From your keyboardlips to Steinski's ears.

@Mr C
I had to restrain myself from going with that one. Cause I always go with that one.

11:42am Parq:

The Fuzz! I saw them -- this is true -- in a weekend-long "rock festival" (trust me, the promoters used the quotes when they said it) in the parking lot of the Fashion Center mall in Paramus NJ in, oh I guess, 1972.

🥁

11:42am Brian in UK:

The Fuzz used to be slang for the Police over here in the Seventies.

11:43am Lane Gray:

I'll let her, Doug. Gimmicks are cool when you use them effectively.

11:43am Doug Schulkind:

Sheila Young, Barbara Gilliam, Val Williams = The Fuzz!

11:43am Jeff Golick:

OMG

11:44am holland oats:

ask the engineer!

11:45am Alex In Illinois:

I don't think Shirley has been inhaling all along.
@Brian in UK: Same here in the US. In older movie or cartoons, the bad guys are always saying: "uh oh, it's da FUZZ!"

11:45am Doug Schulkind:

Originally called themselves The Passionettes.

11:46am Lane Gray:

I usually can't stand out of tune anything, but that microtonal trumpet was cool. Like Bill Monroe's flat thirds...

🥁

11:46am Brian in UK:

@Alex my favourite is Rozzers. Bit old fashioned. No idea of derivation.

11:47am Parq:

Brian, on Sanford and Son once (based, as I assume you know, on Willie Brambel's "Steptoe and Son"), a black cop once told a little boy "Be cool, little brother, the Fuzz is your Cuz". That was also in the neighborhood of 1972, and I've used the line ever since.

11:47am northguineahills:

Thanks Doug, I gotta peace out in about 10 minutes.

11:47am Parq:

Brian, didn't the use of "coppers" start in the UK, too?

11:48am Doug Schulkind:

"Like Bill Monroe's flat thirds"

This audience is the best audience.

11:49am Doug Schulkind:

Grab some Doritos on the way out, northguineahills. We've still got a ton left.

11:49am northguineahills:

The use of "coppers" started in Boston and NYC in the mid-19th c b/c of the copper badges the police used. The usage spread from there.

11:49am Mr C:

I haven't heard this one (Black Fox) in a lonnng time. A hit in Philly

🥁

11:50am Brian in UK:

@Parq, great line can see why to copped it. Yes I believe coppers started here. No relation to the Copper Family from near Brighton.

11:50am Uncle Michael:

Please join me at the top of the hour for fishy tiny time.

wfmu.org...

11:50am Doug Schulkind:

Freddy Robinson, aka Fred L. Robinson, became Abu Talib in 1975: en.wikipedia.org...

11:51am Alex In Illinois:

The Black Fox guitar playing reminds me of Wes Montgomery. I think that is the name.

11:51am Lane Gray:

Bill grew up in Church of Christ. He knew how to sing in tune. He also knew if you half-flat that third, you change the emotional content of the song. Bittersweet? Halfway to minor. He knew what he was doing. Because it was only flat where he wanted it.

11:52am Doug Schulkind:

GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO PROGRAMMING ALERT...
Uncle Michael's Hinky Dinky Time is getting ready to tear the roof off the suckah. (Because it needs a new roof.) And he'll play some cool music, too. Playlist page here: wfmu.org...

🥁

11:53am doctorjazz:

Those octaves are the Wes Montgomery trademark

11:53am Alex In Illinois:

The term "COP" stands for "Constable on Patrol", a British term. A British policeman would sign a report, with C.O.P. after is name.

11:54am Uncle Michael:

"I was proCEEding in a northly DI-rection, m'lord..."

11:55am Doug Schulkind:

@Alex in Illinois
Wes Montgomery was a beautiful player!

11:55am ndbob:

excellent show Doug!

11:55am Doug Schulkind:

Speaking of Cee, Uncle Michael... Billy Cee

11:55am Parq:

Here is Cecil "Straight Dope" Adams on the subject of "copper". He is not kind to some of the above theories. Of course, he knows everything -- if you doubt that, just ask him.

www.straightdope.com...

11:56am Carmichael:

"An ol' 'at, full o' pennies ..."

11:57am Alex In Illinois:

@doctorjazz: Yes, it is those clear parallel octaves in there, along with that jazz guitar sound.

11:57am Van in DC:

Thanks Doug! Gotta go unleash my inner carnivore all over some unsuspecting dead animal parts, somewheres. mmmmm bacon cheeseburger mmmm

11:57am Doug Schulkind:

"Those octaves are the Wes Montgomery trademark."

This audience is the best audience.

🥁

11:58am Brian in UK:

Well Doug, another truly average show. Your average is most others unbelievable, brilliant and stunning.

11:59am Uncle Michael:

Very good, Carmichael!

11:59am Doug Schulkind:

@Van in DC
That...sounds...pretty...damn...good.

11:59am Uncle Michael:

Thanks! See Ya!

🥁

11:59am Brian in UK:

@Parq Cuff him.

12:00pm Jeff Golick:

Thanks, Doug. Safe travels, emotionally and otherwise.

🥁

12:01pm doctorjazz:

Great weekend, fun show, as usual!

12:01pm Doug Schulkind:

Thanks, Jeff and thanks everysingleperson!

12:02pm Doug Schulkind:
