	3:14pm Parq: This NoLa music is a good omen. I have a colleague and good friend on her way there as I type.
	3:14pm Parq: Okay, Miss Fish is from the MoTown, but I always associate this song with New O.
	3:17pm βrian: Apparently, the album was recorded in Detroit. It's not clear where Samantha is based these days.
	3:21pm geezerette: Art Pepper :)
	3:23pm geezerette: & the great Gershwin material.
	3:23pm doctorjazz: Yup, Gezzerette, Art is one of the greats!
	3:25pm geezerette: doc,he wrote,or maybe "as told to", a powerful, harrowing autobiography.
	3:27pm doctorjazz: What was it, Straight Life, if I remember correctly? Haven't read it (just starting an Anthony Braxton biography...slow going at the beginning).
	3:28pm doctorjazz: Eric Mingus, cool! (went to see David Murray last night-his son was playing guitar in the band, Mingus Murray).
	3:28pm geezerette: Yeah, I think "Straight Life" is the title! Coudn't remember.
	3:29pm geezerette: How was that?
	3:31pm doctorjazz: It was great! (Murray isn't quite the powerhouse he was 20 years ago, but who is? He played tenor great, did 1 song on bass clarinet, had D.D. Jackson in the band, what could be bad?)
	3:31pm GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO: @doctorjazz Are you reading Forces in Motion? If so, great book!
	3:33pm geezerette: Doug,doc, "Forces in Motion" Anthony Braxton?
	3:34pm doctorjazz: Don't mean to imply his playing was deficient-he circular breathed (?) and played incredibly long lines, it was great to hear him. I just remember him blowing the roof off... Yeah, Forces In Motion is the book, just at the beginning, mostly discussing Sun Ra, though Braxton does seem very sweet...
	3:34pm βrian: Who's hollerin' in the background there?
	3:34pm Jeff Golick: Forces in Motion: yes yes yes. (How did you find your copy, if I may ask, @doctorjazz?)
	3:36pm doctorjazz: @Jeff, you had recommended it, so I just looked for it on Amazon, and ordered a copy from them.
	3:36pm GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO: @geezerette Forces in Motion is a book, not a doc. But it should be!
	3:37pm Jeff Golick: (In my day job - which I am ignoning right now, thanks to this show - I am in contact with the author, Graham Lock.)
	3:38pm Jeff Golick: (I am also ignoning spell-check.)
	3:40pm annie: i miss jefferson airplane...
	3:42pm geezerette: Thanks Doug,I was actually addressing "doc" Jazz. I'm such a sloppy writer in comments!
	3:42pm Parq: The Schofeld track is sensational.
	3:43pm GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO: @geezerette That is so funny!
	3:43pm Steve Krinsky: I'm having a blast, how about you? Can't wait to go home to listen to my show!
	3:43pm geezerette: Addressing both you and doctorjazz.
	3:46pm geezerette: Steve,sounds great, man. Terriffic show!
	3:47pm doctorjazz: It was a great show, Steve! Thanks!

	3:50pm annie: ok, it's raining out and it's time for a drive...the car is here and the top is down on the bmw.. life can't get any better. see'ya'll
	3:50pm Doug Schulkind: The great Charlie Lewis is next with his Busy Doing Nothing finale: wfmu.org...
	3:51pm Dean: Been lurking. Great to hear that Murray was enjoyable, @doctorjazz. Kweskin? Isn't he the guy who read Elmer Fudd's mind?
	3:51pm geezerette: see you,Annie!
	3:54pm doctorjazz: @Dean, I was tempted to stay for the late set (being a school day, and maybe a bit responsible, sent me home after the early set). And, he's going to have the Octet Friday and Saturday; not likely I'll make it again, but it would be nice.
	3:56pm Parq: Luv this So Nice. Miss Amanda put out a Spoonful tribute disk as a marathon premium, which includes Astrud Gilberto signing this song with her kid. Wondrous!
	3:58pm doctorjazz: I'll try to get to the Spoonful tribute at FMU, should be fun.
	3:59pm Ted Fucking Williams: No need to do station IDs on the Drummer Stream, Steve!
