We have some tasty crumpets for you, Brian in UK!

🥁

9:02am Brian in UK:

Oops, first typo. It's Martini time.

9:03am Sem:

@duke: I've heard that Nature is all it can be at any one moment. Must be cabin fever, eh?

9:03am Doug Schulkind:

Hey, typos is my racket!

9:03am Mr C:

9:05am Doug Schulkind:

🥁

9:06am dutchtheo:

Hello all drummers, back from the flu, still smelling funny though

9:07am Doug Schulkind:

The C in Mr C stands for culinary expert!

9:08am Doug Schulkind:

Howdy, Mike East! We'll try to turn the morning frown upside down!

9:09am Doug Schulkind:

You're smelling fine to me, dutchtheo! I detect a scent of cumin and espresso beans.

🥁

9:10am doctorjazz:

Hi Drummers!

9:12am holland oats:

drumma! peoples! flautists & flutists!

9:12am Doug Schulkind:

Whazzup, doc?!

🥁

9:13am dutchtheo:

9:14am Doug Schulkind:

Hellooooo, hollaund oauts!

9:15am Doug Schulkind:

dutchtheo: snorted

🥁

9:15am dutchtheo:

is there a Beny Moré link here? yummy!

🥁

9:15am Brian in UK:

"I could never out anything up my nose" he snorted.

🥁

9:17am dutchtheo:

Brian is that another typo "out up my nose"

9:18am Uncle Michael:

Good morning brotherns and sisterns.

9:19am Doug Schulkind:

Good welcome, brother Uncle!

9:19am Uncle Michael:

Is there a Clutch Cargo cargo cult?

🥁

9:19am Brian in UK:

@dutchtheo ever heard Ska Cubano?
skacubano.com...

Yes, well spotted. Out with the out and in with the put.

9:22am listener Rey:

saludos amigos!

9:23am Doug Schulkind:

I want to crawl up inside the bass on this track and have a nap!

🥁

9:23am dutchtheo:

Brian sounds like a natural combination, cuban ska. I'm not a native speaker so maybe it was a uk expression "to out something up your nose, (sounds like the wrong direction though)

9:23am Doug Schulkind:

Great to see you again, Listener Rey!

🥁

9:25am dutchtheo:

sounds like a famous sample "el chicano"

9:26am Listener Bob in PGH:

Happy to be back in (Schul)kindergarten!

9:27am listener Rey:

The pleasure is all mine. Can't always comment but am usually lurking and diggin' the sweet sounds of the stream

🥁

9:27am Brian in UK:

@dutchtheo. When we went to Amsterdam once in an Italian restaurant. The Italian owner laughed at my attempt at Dutch. It was funny for a non native speaker. One of the best pizzas and minestrones I have had. Think it was called Mamma Mia.

9:27am Doug Schulkind:

We'll have juiceboxes and nap time later, Listener Bob in PGH!

9:29am Maggie B.:

My headphones just called out to me and what perfect timing!

9:30am Doug Schulkind:

Now if your headphones could just pour you a mojito, Maggie, THEN you'd be in business!

9:30am sinner:

....someone say naptime?

🥁

9:30am dutchtheo:

Brian sounds good mama mia, trying to speak the language is always +1, but probably the owner wasn't dutch himself

9:31am Maggie B.:

YES!

🥁

9:32am Artie:

Positive uplift!!

🥁

9:32am dutchtheo:

Brian like you said , i read only half

9:34am Uncle Michael:

Sunday the 18th.

🥁

9:34am Brian in UK:

Doug, just got the paperwork in the post today. All those Premiums never cease to amaze. What a radio station.

9:34am KimSorise:

Good morning!

9:38am Doug Schulkind:

Big radio hug, comrade Kim Sorise!

9:38am Listener Robert:

But how many songs are self-referential in the sense of the Tennesssee Waltz, which seems to bootstrap itself into existence?

🥁

9:38am Brian in UK:

Doug, there was a Barbadian cricketer called Seymour Nurse in the Sixties. Any relation I wonder.

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

Thanks for correcting, Uncle Michael! (A phrase I have uttered many dozens of times.)

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

Ahoy, Listener Robert!

9:40am Webhamster Henry:

Hello drummer donors!

9:40am Stanley:

Doug baby!

🥁

9:40am JtotheK:

Hark!!! 'Tis I, here for the soothing sounds of the Schulkind.

9:41am Ken From Hyde Park:

Happy Friday, streamers!

9:41am Uncle Michael:

Oh, this is brilliant.

9:41am Doug Schulkind:

Webhamster Henry! Webgerbil Stanley! Webmuskrat JtotheK!

9:42am Doug Schulkind:

Oooh-pop-a-dah, Ken From Hyde Park!

9:42am listener Rey:

ool ya koo all you cats!

🥁

9:43am Artie:

I've heard New Orleans brass bands make a lot of hay with the chorus of this song ('Calypso Be'). Never knew the origin.

9:44am Doug Schulkind:

Glad you're here (hear), Artie!

9:45am Doug Schulkind:

You may recognize George Browne as the fellow singing as "Young Tiger" earlier.

9:51am Doug Schulkind:

Calypso officially off the rails now.

🥁

9:53am dutchtheo:

Who is who: Workshop Musicians: Bass – Lloyd Mason

9:55am Doug Schulkind:

You beat me to it, dutchtheo. Thanks!

🥁

9:56am dutchtheo:

you have to mention such a nice line up

9:57am annie:

aahhh, i forgot about the flyer that gets sent out; i was sad that i had accidentally deleted the email link to the marathon info.

🥁

10:00am Artie:

Don't miss that Underwater Theme Park shirt. Yowee!

🥁

10:01am Brian in UK:

I am trying to think of the name of the nun/teacher who encouraged Tommy McCook and others to take up music.

🥁

10:03am dutchtheo:

Brian in uk; googled, Sister Mary Ignatius Davies (18 November 1921−9 February 2003) was a Sister of Mercy and inspirational music teacher known for her work at the Alpha Boys School.

10:06am Listener Gregory:

Jelly Roll Morton's lyrics for Whinin' Boy Blues refer to Stavin' Chain: "Pick it up and shake it like Stavin' Chain." What that refers to I don't like to imagine.

10:06am Listener Robert:

I LOL several times during that calypso set, thanks.

🥁

10:06am Brian in UK:

Well done. Yes, that's it. The Alpha Skool. A bit like Trevor Huddlestone with Hugh Masakela.

10:07am Doug Schulkind:

The story behind this song/performance: blogs.loc.gov...

🥁

10:07am dutchtheo:

that were schools

10:08am Listener Gregory:

If I remember correctly, Jelly Roll's "Stavin' Chain" was a well-known gigolo.

10:08am Doug Schulkind:

Howdy, Listener Gregory!

🥁

10:09am Brian in UK:

A murder ballad by any other name.

🥁

10:11am Brian in UK:

The only other Lemuel I can think of is Lemuel Gulliver. Boy, did he have them upsidedown blues.

10:14am Doug Schulkind:

Drilling deep into the meaning of these lyrics: weeniecampbell.com...

🥁

10:17am Brian in UK:

@Doug, more like fracking.

10:17am Listener Gregory:

It's sad to think that no one will ever write a song lyric, "Pick it up and shake it like Listener Gregory." Indeed, the rhyme is so terrible that there's not likely to be any song lyric with it.

10:18am mauri:

murdering icy sunset on lake here. howdy!

🥁

10:19am Brian in UK:

@LG How's about.
Pick it up and shake it.
Like Listener G useta do.

🥁

10:19am dutchtheo:

the average enjoyment factor is even still growing

🥁

10:20am doctorjazz:

This old blues set will always get me to say "ahhh..."

10:20am Doug Schulkind:

Welcome aboard, murderin' mauri!

🥁

10:21am Brian in UK:

mauri the light here today has been crystal clear. You could see for miles if you were on higher ground.

10:21am Jeff Golick:

Hi, Doug, all assembled.

WEB DuBois. To him is attributed one of the most astute quotations I've yet heard: "The problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color-line." Sadly, it remains the problem of the 21st, too.

10:22am Jeff Golick:

[to lighten mood, insert pun here]

🥁

10:22am doctorjazz:

Blind Blake- :)

10:22am Doug Schulkind:

Jeff "Speaking Truth to Power" Golick!

🥁

10:23am Brian in UK:

Was it Leon Redbone that sang this in the Seventies?

🥁

10:23am dutchtheo:

champagne charlie is my middle name

10:24am Sem:

Just so, BiUK, on his third album.

10:24am northguineahills:

By March 21st, this immigration nightmare should be over. Conference calls w/ our lawyer, and Mexican consulate officials, asking for the most tertiary docs, etc. (well, unless the put new immigration regulations, so, I'm not holding my breath).

10:25am mauri:

Brian, a good flying weather.

🥁

10:25am βrian:

So, I hear this is the lunar Year of the Doug. Is that right?

🥁

10:27am βrian:

Is there a date on that WEBDB photo? Early 60s?

10:27am northguineahills:

DougDoug, woof!

🥁

10:29am βrian:

"Who's a good Doug?"

🥁

10:29am βrian:

And of course: "Beware of Doug!"

10:31am Doug Schulkind:

βrian! ngh!

🥁

10:31am doctorjazz:

I went to a club in Brooklyn to see Billy Harper years back (the club was in Park Slope, on Flatbush Avenue, lasted a few months). I used to take my older daughter to shows at the time to "break her in" (it worked, she can identify Monk tunes along with Beyoncé...didn't work with my younger daughter, though). We talked to Billy Harper for a few minutes before his set, and he called out sweetly from the stage to my daughter at the beginning of the set. She still remembers it, as do I, it was a great gesture; he was such a sweet gentleman.

🥁

10:32am βrian:

@NGH: Holy crap, I thought that was all wrapped up a while ago. Good luck, in any case.

10:32am Jeff Golick:

Randy Weston and Billy Harper. These names should be shouted out more than they are, I reckon.

10:33am Doug Schulkind:

Seen Billy Harper many times. Massive improvisor. Wonderful fellow.

10:33am Jeff Golick:

This Hampton Hawes just set off the fire alarms in my office.

10:34am northguineahills:

@βrian: It should be fine, but she's a perfectionist and a worry wart. And w/ the changes recently announced, I don't blame her. When she stresses out, it stressed me out

10:34am Doug Schulkind:

Randy Weston will be 92 in about six weeks.

10:36am northguineahills:

In theory, this should be the last interview before the citizenship process starts next year. Part of the reason she isn't moving down anytime soon, is that the employees at the NYC immigration and citizenship office are more likely to be sympathetic then one in FL.

🥁

10:36am Brian in UK:

@Jeff G I have an image of a Mack Sennett film now with the fire brigade.

10:36am northguineahills:

Marion Brown w/ Leo Smith!!! how have I not come across this!!!!

10:37am Jeff Golick:

@BiUK: ...and there goes the fire hose, water everywhere.

10:39am Doug Schulkind:

Here it is, ngh: www.discogs.com...

10:41am still b/p:

I thought long slow-box straining delays would be canceled when I started with the phone app. But it took me two lifetimes to get aboard today. Large section of show stolen from me — call the cops! I’m raving like Cheswick over here: “I want something done! I want something done!!”
Hey... hi.

10:42am Jeff Golick:

The Black Lion CD release of Brown's Porto Novo has a couple of these Smith duo numbers, too, which I found confusing.

10:43am northguineahills:

danks doug!

10:43am Doug Schulkind:

"Long slow-box straining" sounds like the gastrointestinal challenges I am experiencing currently.

10:43am Rich in Washington:

This is top notch skronk, Doug! Good morning!

10:44am Listener Gregory:

Yes, Doug, you know what happened to Elvis.

10:44am Doug Schulkind:

@Rich in Washington
I aim to deliver TNS!

10:45am Sem:

...straining at stool, I believe, was the phrase first used in the NYT. Molly Ivins, i think.

🥁

10:46am Brian in UK:

@Sem I failed for attaining at skool.

🥁

10:46am dutchtheo:

is it that contagious, my stomach flu?! jeff brian; www.youtube.com...

10:47am Sem:

hah, Brian. The British wit, wot?

10:55am northguineahills:

Who are school days?

🥁

10:57am dutchtheo:

so there is your goddamn Roswell Rudd song, did you mention: Trombone – Jeb Bishop

11:00am Dean:

Fuck Seeree.

11:00am Rich in Washington:

Siri: Why does the porridge bird lay its eggs in the air?

11:00am Jeff Golick:

Where's his goddamn google doodle.

🥁

11:00am βrian:

My Siri is French. Love that.

11:01am Dean:

"Ya wanna make an omelet, you gotta break a few eggs."

11:01am Listener Robert:

Reminds me of the story of someone who wanted to start a DuBois club and was misunderstood as starting a Boys' Club.

11:02am Doug Schulkind:

The point of that pointless exercise was to expose Siri as a fraud. Sadly, only I fell flat.

11:04am sinner:

I always thought if W.E.B. Dubois had been a music artist he would have been Nina Simone.

🥁

11:04am βrian:

She's just a francophile. Give her a break.

11:06am still b/p:

Confusion, failure and insolence (yes, good name for band, album, law or accounting firm) was what I got in my rookie engagements with Siri.

🥁

11:06am Brian in UK:

Doug, we saw Sona Jobarteh last evening. The only female griot kora player to my knowledge. Her Calabash player was a live wire, as are most percussionist.

11:07am Doug Schulkind:

Interesting to ponder, sinner.

@Brian in UK
The griot business is still "heavily gendered."

🥁

11:08am Brian in UK:

I remember seeing Ba Sissoko a few years back. There were two kora players strutting about the stage wearing their instruments. It was so phallic.

🥁

11:12am dutchtheo:

Dark daughter of the lotus leaves that watch the Southern Sea!

Wan spirit of a prisoned soul a-panting to be free!

The muttered music of thy streams, the whisper of the deep,

Have kissed each other in God’s name and kissed a world to sleep.

The will of the world is a whistling wind, sweeping a cloud-swept sky,

And not from the East and not from the West knelled that

soul-waking cry,

But out of the South,—the sad, black South—it screamed from

the top of the sky,

Crying: “Awake, O ancient race!” Wailing, “O woman, arise!”

And crying and sighing and crying again as a voice in the

midnight cries,—

But the burden of white men bore her back and the white world

stifled her sighs.

The white world’s vermin and filth:

All the dirt of London,

All the scum of New York;

Valiant spoilers of women

And conquerers of unarmed men;

Shameless breeders of bastards,

Drunk with the greed of gold,

Baiting their blood-stained hooks

With cant for the souls of the simple;

Bearing the white man’s burden

Of liquor and lust and lies!

Unthankful we wince in the East,

Unthankful we wail from the westward,

Unthankfully thankful, we curse,

In the unworn wastes of the wild:

I hate them, Oh!

I hate them well,

I hate them, Christ!

As I hate hell!

If I were God,

I’d sound their knell

This day!

Who raised the fools to their glory,

But black men of Egypt and Ind,

Ethiopia’s sons of the evening,

Indians and yellow Chinese,

Arabian children of morning,

And mongrels of Rome and Greece?

Ah, well!

And they that raised the boasters

Shall drag them down again,—

Down with the theft of their thieving

And murder and mocking of men;

Down with their barter of women

And laying and lying of creeds;

Down with their cheating of childhood

And drunken orgies of war,—

down

down

deep down,

Till the devil’s strength be shorn,

Till some dim, darker David, a-hoeing of his corn,

And married maiden, mother of God,

Bid the black Christ be born!

Then shall our burden be manhood,

Be it yellow or black or white;

And poverty and justice and sorrow,

The humble, and simple and strong

Shall sing with the sons of morning

And daughters of even-song:

Black mother of the iron hills that ward the blazing sea,

Wild spirit of a storm-swept soul, a-struggling to be free,

Where ‘neath the bloody finger-marks thy riven bosom quakes,

Thicken the thunders of God’s Voice and lo! a world awakes!

W. E. B. Du Bois

11:12am Jeff Golick:

If you ask Siri why fire engines are red, she goes off on some crazy tangent.

🥁

11:14am Brian in UK:

...and if books are read?

🥁

11:15am dutchtheo:

that was The Riddle of the Sphinx by Dubois

11:17am Dean:

Firetruck Seeree.

🥁

11:17am βrian:

I'm looking for a book about the Acadian Diaspora. It's a red book, about this big ...

🥁

11:20am Brian in UK:

Here is a dumb question. How do you read poetry books? I have Seamus Heaney and Charles Beaudelaire from the library. I cannot just read it like fiction because it seems to diminish the poems as they need time to be absorbed.

11:21am still b/p:

How big is Mao’s little red book that you read?

11:23am sinner:

King Ayisoba = WOW.

11:24am Doug Schulkind:

Wow backwards, sinner!

11:24am Doug Schulkind:

Thanks for the above, dutchtheo!

🥁

11:26am Brian in UK:

@still b/p It is little read these days. It is about 2" by 1" if memory serves.

🥁

11:26am dutchtheo:

Sona Jobarteh is a cousin of Toumani Diabaté, long lineage of kora players. one poem a day keeps the medicine man away Brian

🥁

11:27am βrian:

Mom on her head, too.

11:28am Sem:

@βrian: re: Acadian diaspora. You mean something like this? global.oup.com...

🥁

11:28am Brian in UK:

Was wondering if some Ethiopian polyphony might appear.

Might try two or three a day.

11:30am Doug Schulkind:

Ethiopian polyphony. Even just speaking the phrase is music.

11:32am Stanley:

Well, I for one, enjoyed those recordings

🥁

11:32am dutchtheo:

Brian in Uk i am not familiar with a Stendahl syndrome concerning poetry

11:32am Uncle Michael:

Would you care to join me for Hinky Dinky Time at the top of the hour?

www.wfmu.org...

11:33am Sem:

Will there'll be polyphony of some sort? Wafers?
No matter, UM. I'll be there w/ bells...or bell bottoms on, or something.

11:35am Doug Schulkind:

Polyphony News!

🥁

11:35am listener james from westwood:

Been in a work trance for 2.5 hr but hugely enjoying things. Always so frustrated that the Muslimgauze artist left us so horrifyingly early. His voice could've been helpful in parsing what the new millennium brought us.

🥁

11:36am Brian in UK:

Doug, the music today seems to have had what shall we say, an edge to it.

11:37am Doug Schulkind:

That's knife of you to say, Brian in UK.

11:38am Doug Schulkind:

He died so damn young, indeed, Listener James. Ugh.

🥁

11:38am βrian:

Too much coffee makes me edgy.

11:40am Doug Schulkind:

Suck on a coffee suppressant, βrian?

🥁

11:42am βrian:

I think this Mercy Sluts track will be good on my "Music by which to germinate hot peppers" playlist.

11:43am Doug Schulkind:

Where is this song on the Scoville scale, βrian?

11:45am Doug Schulkind:

The Mercy Sluts = alias of The Poets Of Rhythm

🥁

11:46am dutchtheo:

would you have thought the Mercy Sluts is a German 1990's song; Jalapeno

11:47am Doug Schulkind:

The Whitefield Brothers are up in that Mercy Sluts mess, too. Who knew Germans could be so fonky?!

🥁

11:48am βrian:

20,000 - 30,000 is my target range.

11:49am Lewis:

If I must listen to Mr. Tamborine man - i choose this version...

11:50am Doug Schulkind:

I have sometimes used this Four of Clubs burner as a talkover track. What the hell have I been thinking?!

🥁

11:50am Brian in UK:

I think a chili from Dorset UK has been measured at 970,000.
www.telegraph.co.uk...

11:50am Doug Schulkind:

We report you decide, Lewis.

11:52am Doug Schulkind:

Next up on the Drummer Stream is a man with more funk in the tip of his little pinkie than the entire German Empire!

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael is NEXT!

PLAYLIST: wfmu.org...

11:52am Sem:

That's give the old Toad in the Hole some zip.

🥁

11:53am Brian in UK:

Doug, well that was a bit of allright. The show as a hole that is.

11:53am still b/p:

For some reason I wanted to hear the “for my boot heels to be wanderin’” line by those fellers once I realized what it was, but I missed it.

11:53am Uncle Michael:

wild ride, that

🥁

11:54am βrian:

"Sir, it's your pinky. Well, it's funky."

11:55am Uncle Michael:

Hey, man...smell my pinky.

11:55am northguineahills:

150K Scoville units my usual upper range when it comes to normal cooking. But once in a blue moon, when I need a pick-me endorphin surge, or if caffeine isn't working, I'll go to 1M. I usually keep under 50k under most dishes (that call for picante).

11:56am Uncle Michael:

Thanks for a the tonnage of tunage, Doug. See you all shortly...

🥁

11:57am βrian:

I'd like to hear a cover of Last Train to Scoville.

11:57am Sem:

I have some hot sauce which is called "Endorphin Rush."

11:57am northguineahills:

2M gives me tunnel vision and tinnitus, eff that noise! (I was only stupid enough to eat a naga jolokia once, and only a half). I amend my former statement, closer to 500k is my stupid upper limit on those occasional days.

🥁

11:58am duke:

Whoo hoo Thanks Doug

🥁

11:58am βrian:

Hot sauce on one's huevos can be an unsettling experience.

11:58am northguineahills:

Doug plated that Con Funk Shun "Mr Tambourine Man" back in 2013!

Thanks Doug

11:58am still b/p:

Never shall my mouth or boot heels wander far down the road to Scoville.
Thanks for a fine , even when partial, show.

🥁

11:59am βrian:

@NGH: I remember getting tinnitus once at an Indian restaurant in London. I didn't understand that when they said hot, they meant hot.

11:59am northguineahills:

@βrian: Taquitos con heuvos con salsa verde habanero has been my go to lunch this week.

12:00pm Rich in Washington:
