Sun. Dec 22nd, 3pm - 5pm:
The Unsolicited Return of the Winter Soul-stice (fill-in for Paul Bruno)
(More info...)
You can't stop the seasons from turning, and you evidently also can't stop an old dog from performing his one old trick. Answering the teeming clamor of one New York Times food columnist
, Gaylord Fields is returning to WFMU's airwaves for a one-off Winter Soul-stice program. In his time away he's learned nothing, so the format will remain the same: two hours of original 1960s soul 45s, and the abuse of an expensive reverb machine for the sake of corny vocal effects.
Gaylord,best of luck in all your endeavors while you're away.
I'm going to miss your sensibility. Hope at some point you want to return,it's been a great pleasure listening to you.
Cheers!
Hi Gaylord, and everyone else. Sad to see you missing from the new schedule. Sunday nights won't be the same. Hope you'll be back soon. (great opening set, by the way)
I'm taking next week off. In the micro it's a relief, once in a while, not to have a sow to prepare. In the macro, I'd have a hole I wouldn't be sure how to fill.
Gaylord, you need to get active on social media so you can post links to songs you think I need to hear. There's a lot of music I wouldn't hear without your tutelage.

Have a good hiatus, Gaylord. Remember there will be a lot going on in Cbus on Rick James death day. Great show as always.
As much as I'm very much looking forward to having my Sundays free, there must have been a reason (or several) that it's been15 years since my last sabbatical.
I was disappointed to not see your name on the summer schedule. But then I realized that you'll now be able to enjoy the full Decades TV weekend binges. 'Cause you could be watching "Celebrity Bowling" right now instead of spinning records for our enjoyment.
@BadGuyZero: It was tough tearing myself from the Celebrity Bowling binge to come here. As it is, I'll be missing the always hilarious Billy Barty (okay, I'm DVRing his appearance).
There must be some mistake.. I pledged to your show this year so you would continue to be there, continue being the person who made the end of the weekend a bit easier to accept, not so you would leave. There obviously was a mix up.. What will i do for this year's SOULSTICE ? AAAAGGGHHHHHHHH :-)
Btw, if you wanna hear another ghost story, send me a message on my profile page - this one's a bit more unsettling than what I posted on Irene's show a couple weeks ago so I don't want to go into it here :/
But the nice person on the phone said they would make sure everything was taken care of :-) Enjoy your time off and know you will be missed.. First Monica, now you (sigh)
@Gaylord: So this means you'll be hanging out in the rec room after church services to finally, properly enjoy pound cake and fruit punch with the rest of the parishioners, correct? No more "Irish exit" to play your beloved 45s.

oh no gaylord......i'm buying a coffin and jumping in
Holy crap, Gaylord- I just took the most amazing picture of my cat, standing on her hind legs with her paws on the windowsill, listening to your voice coming out of the radio...
Gaylord, your imminent absence means I can now fill a whole programming day (8 shows x 3 hours) with shows I miss. (Is that the end of noobitude?) But there's 15 years of archives!
GF...If you wanna pop in on a comments board 'n stuff - I'm sure we could make room for you in FMU culture - somewhere somehow - even if you don't have a show
...if anyone complains - just send 'em my way & I'll tell 'em whut's whut (harhar)...
Seriously tho' - as I wunce wrotes - you are maybe the best example of FMU-J as Artist (if there could be just one). Grateful.
I'm living the Airplane! movie today. i had the fish at the local restaurant and I'm feeling pretty ill. Enough of my troubles. I want to wish you a relaxing and enjoyable summer, Gaylord. If you go to the track, may all your selections pay off handsomely.
Seriously - that segue was as much evidence of something Universal as everything Alan Watts ever said...altho' there must some Elvis doing some cod Asian number in some mediocre flick...
Some of Elvis' best prime vocal years were wasted on soundtrack dreck (except for that song and a few others that slipped through) during the lean years.
Enjoy that sabbatlical, Gaylord! If enyone has earned himself a Summer of "real" weekends, it's you, Paisano. Be sure and post photos from your most exotic destinations...
I humbly wish to make the first request for you first show when you return: "Aero '66" by the Wayfarers. Just so I'll know everything's back to normal.
