WFMU RADIO: Give The Drummer Some 11/08/19

Listener comments!

9:00am Doug Schulkind:

Looking for some good vibes? You've come to the right place. Welcome!

9:02am doncaballero:

Morning Doug! Looking forward to warming up this AM with a little Drummer Radio.

9:02am Gina Bacon:

I am always looking for some good vibes!! Happy Friday!!

🥁

9:02am dutchtheo:

vibe'o'clock, Hey Doug & drummers

9:03am Sem:

Without the Drummer stream, I would never had been infected with the ear worm lyric "Sal, let me chaw your rosin some."
This is why I can never leave, always in the hope that the antidote worm will surface. Good morning, Doug, and hello, all, lurking or arriving.

9:05am Webhamster Henry:

All the GTDS studios need letter names!

🥁

9:05am duke:

Picking up those good vibes

9:06am Sem:

So, we'll all be vibe-raters? I'm all in.

9:06am Webhamster Henry:

I like the vibes - I'm a glockenspieler myself. Let's not examine Lionel Hampton's political views, just listen to his vibrations.

9:08am Doug Schulkind:

Lovely to see you all! Welcome welcome, Webhamster Henry! Sem! duke! dutchtheo! Gina Bacon! doncaballero!

9:09am Doug Schulkind:

@Sem
Put your ear up close to your speaker. I will try to coax him out. If that doesn't work, I'll send down a few friends to keep him company.

9:09am John from Florham park:

The drummer stream is one of the reasons why I listen to WFMU, the news SUCKS

🥁

9:09am Brian in UK:

Hello Doug and other fixaters.
Make mine a marimba, a kind of rum based cocktail.

9:09am bigplanetnoise:

Good morning! Is there coffee served with these good vibes, I hope?!?

🥁

9:11am Brian in UK:

Paper and comb, groovy.

9:11am Webhamster Henry:

Ah, the soothing timbre of a Mirliton.

9:12am Doug Schulkind:

Happy to provide some respite from real life, John from Florham Park.

The fix is in, Brian in UK!

All we've got are triple espressos, bigplanetnoise! Have two!

9:14am Gina Bacon:

Don't love vibes, you say? How is that possible? They're so loveable!

9:14am Gina Bacon:

I love your gif, btw
<-----

9:15am bigplanetnoise:

I deliberately have vibes all around my house and property.

9:16am Doug Schulkind:

I love vibes, Gina. I just don't love love love them.

9:16am Doug Schulkind:

Glad you love the gif. I'm rather proud of it.

9:17am Gina Bacon:

Ok, now I feel better. And that's a lotta vibes, bigplanetnoise!

9:19am Gina Bacon:

On clear days, I hear you can see them from space!

9:19am Doug Schulkind:

So what you're saying, bigplanetnoise, is you have no absence of mallets.

9:22am Ken From Hyde Park:

I notice that certain vibes really resonate with me.

9:23am Webhamster Henry:

I have a few Zonophone disks, but not ethnic ones like this.

9:24am bigplanetnoise:

Wigeons, Teals, Mallets... they’re all tasty.

9:24am Doug Schulkind:

With that comment, you get to sit right up front, Ken From Hyde Park.

9:24am Sem:

Saw an interview w/ Ruth Underwood one time, she was talking about working with Zappa. She illustrated her point of complexity and time signatures by playing a section of something she had recorded with him. Incredible to watch something seemingly impossible being played. No words.

9:25am Webhamster Henry:

Vibes: all I can say is "Ruth Underwood"

9:27am John from Florham park:

Speaking of Frank Zappa wonder how he would dig this station and the internet streams

9:27am Webhamster Henry:

@Sem I saw that too - she apologized for missing a few notes after not playing it for a decade...

9:28am Ken From Hyde Park:

Wow, cool! With any luck, I'll be seated next to Bob Uecker!

9:30am Flash Strap:

Good morning Doug and Drummers!

9:31am listener Rey:

I'm feeling the vibes, Doug. I don't know what that guy in the gif is feeling, though.

9:31am Sem:

@Webhamster Henry: yeah, I remember that clearly. Self-deprecating, beautiful to hear.

9:31am Doug Schulkind:

Brother Flash Strap! What a miraculously wonderful Explorers Room you gifted us with last evening!

9:33am Doug Schulkind:

@listener Rey
I think his inner demons are in control. But they seem very musical.

9:36am Flash Strap:

Somethin' miraculous happening here as well

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

I'm pedaling as fast as I can, Flash Strap.

9:39am Flash Strap:

El Mentiroso!

9:41am Doug Schulkind:

You ain't lyin', Flash Strap.

9:43am Flash Strap:

I've never heard this Diablos Rojos, it's great

9:44am Doug Schulkind:

This Peruvian music is so... shroomy.

9:45am fleep:

Wiggly giggly greetings

9:45am Doug Schulkind:

Beep beep, outta the way! It's fleep!

9:46am bigplanetnoise:

I’m calling my next comedy team “Shrooms & Vibes”.

9:48am Doug Schulkind:

Later, they'll change their name to Cheech & Chong.

🥁

9:48am bobdc:

Or Shroom and Vibes could be the Morning Zoo show on the Give the Drummer Some stream. "Wake up with Shroom and Vibes!"

9:48am Gina Bacon:

Hahaha!

🥁

9:49am bobdc:

Of course, on Friday, Doug is our Morning Zoo.

9:49am Doug Schulkind:

Love it! My talent scouts will scour the globe until those two are found.

🥁

9:50am bobdc:

(weird typo: of course that was supposed to be "Doug," not "Dough.")

9:55am Dominick:

Adolph Hitler on vibes

9:57am Flash Strap:

excited for this

9:57am listener Rey:

I'm all in on the vibes. Cal Tjader was a huge influence on my musical tastes.

🥁

9:58am bobdc:

listener Rey beat me to it: I was going to recommend Tjader's "Soul Sauce" album in particular.

9:58am Doug Schulkind:

Benny Goodman on bass clarinet here!

Hello, Dominick! Goodbye, Adolph!

9:58am Listener Gregory:

Doug, I think your issue with vibes is widespread. I've read a few times that Bobby Hutcherson would have been one of the biggest jazz stars if only he had played a different instrument, for example.

🥁

9:58am Brian in UK:

Mr McVibes would request McVibes & Schroom.

9:58am Listener Gregory:

Also, good morning.

9:59am Doug Schulkind:

@bobdc
I corrected the typo. It happens all the time. I am surround by dough. Not!

9:59am Gina Bacon:

Octopus one man band: youtu.be...

9:59am Flash Strap:

This Norvo is perfect

10:00am Dominick:

Not to split hairs, I'm loving this Red Norvo, but isn't this a marimba?

🥁

10:00am bobdc:

Glad to hear you corrected it, because after you did I thought I had hallucinated the typo. Too much Shroom, not enough Vibes.

10:00am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory
I will make amends with Mr. Hutcherson soon.

10:01am Doug Schulkind:

@Dominick
I am a rule breaker. Especially my own.

10:02am listener Rey:

If ya dig the vibes, Larry Grogan on Testify! did an excellent show few weeks back that featured Vibes and Hammond B3. Check the archives

10:03am Flash Strap:

oh hell yes

10:05am Doug Schulkind:

Mr. Hutcherson on vibes here.

@listener Rey
I think that Testify! planted the seed. Wasn't thinking about that directly, but I probably owe Larry some credit.

🥁

10:10am JtotheK:

Missed out on the Lionel Hampton, but back for Out to Lunch. A popular lp at our household is his 'Saturday Night Jazz Fever' cover of said disco tunes.

10:12am Doug Schulkind:

Sun Ra here—with Walt Dickerson—on HARPSICHORD.

10:12am Doug Schulkind:

Hey hey, JtotheK!

10:15am joe schmoe:

My, this is a very specific sound! diggin it though... I just pray you don't do an all-banjo show...

10:16am Listener Gregory:

Banjo-vibes duos are very good!

10:17am Doug Schulkind:

@joe schmoe
You've thrown down the gauntlet, Sir. Meet me on the radio at dawn.

🥁

10:17am Brian in UK:

O'Linga one of my favourite Irish tunes.

10:19am Jeff Golick:

Celeste we forget, Fridays on the Drummer stream is where it's at.

10:19am joe schmoe:

HAHAHA... If banjo vibes duets exist, me and my masochistic tendencies will stay tuned here!

10:21am Doug Schulkind:

Khan Jamal in duet with trumpeter Clint Jackson. Mr. Jackson is the composer of this song. Called Clint. It is semi-autobiographical.

🥁

10:22am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

kaPOW! hello, Doug and everyone!

🥁

10:22am dutchtheo:

Yeah, Give The Vibraphonist Some

10:23am Doug Schulkind:

@dutchtheo
That is the name of this record, in fact!

10:24am Doug Schulkind:

Good day, hooray, Granny Spicy Tuna!

10:25am Mark R:

Give the trumpet some, too!

10:25am Doug Schulkind:

Howdy, Mark R!

10:25am John from Florham park:

Hello granny

10:25am Jeff Golick:

Milt Jackson on Impulse seems weird.

10:26am Phillippe Bastille:

Good morning everyone! Finally got my lazy butt into gear.

🥁

10:29am dutchtheo:

Yes Doug that's where i took it from, Mark R, as you say, that trumpet!

10:29am Alex In Illinois:

What about percussion? Maybe insects have been making percussion sounds before hominds could sing?

10:30am Mr C:

That was a crazy good set..

10:31am Listener Gregory:

Interesting that Norvo, Hampton, and Dolphy were all associated with Mingus. Or not.

🥁

10:32am Brian in UK:

@Alex, ants might be the prog rock players of the insect world. Very organised but not a lot to say.

🥁

10:32am bobdc:

To follow up a bit on Alex in Illinois: instead of comparing the vibes to the human voice, comparing it to the drums might give better perspective--it's a percussion instrument, complete with special sticks to hit the thing. Give the vibes player some!

10:33am Webhamster Henry:

Shelly was the mom, Elizabeth Hartman was the kid. en.wikipedia.org...

🥁

10:35am Brian in UK:

Vee-ent-e-n. Perhaps.

10:35am Listener Gregory:

I had the experience of hearing Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald singing "Ode to Billie Joe" on a Sinatra TV special last week (on DVD). Still trying to recover.

10:38am Gina B:

Yay! Thanks, Doug!

10:40am John from Florham park:

Howdy phillippe

10:41am Doug Schulkind:

Greetings, Phillippe Bastille! Groovings, Alex in Illinois!

And Crazy Mr C!

10:41am Listener Gregory:

I happened to hear a couple of vibes concerts in the past year, and I think that if you hear the instrument in person, you get more of the richness of the sound and dynamic range than often comes across in recordings, Doug.

10:42am davefromtoronto:

this brings to mind "george fell into his french horn"

10:47am Doug Schulkind:

Glad to see you, davefromtoronto!

@Listener Gregory
Maybe vibes have just been poorly miked all this time. It's a reasonable theory.

🥁

10:49am doctorjazz:

Hi, happy Friday!

10:49am davefromtoronto:

thanks doug - great to be "hear"

10:51am Doug Schulkind:

doctorjazz, the smooth operator!

10:52am WR:

WFMU punctuates my week with Monday and Friday/ Saturday programming. The rest of the week is a blur of work. Am I way too late to try to make good vibes ironic remarks? Ah, Jeanne Lee. Beautiful soul expressed via vocals. Hi all

10:54am Listener Gregory:

Must bug out for a meeting. Keep the good vibes coming.

10:56am Doug Schulkind:

Oh how I adore Jeanne Lee. Hi, blurry WR!

🥁

10:57am doctorjazz:

Never too late for an ironic remark, good vibes out otherwise (I do the vibe cracks on Little Danny's show, though!)

10:58am Doug Schulkind:

Meet swiftly, meet safely, Listener Gregory.

🥁

11:01am Brian in UK:

Vibraphones and harps have a similar feel to them. Ethereal, perhaps is the word. There again...

11:02am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
I came close to including a Dorothy Ashby (harp) track including Terry Pollard on vibes.

11:04am Jeff Golick:

Great energy on this Chico Freeman.

11:05am John from Florham park:

@Davefromtoronto nice to see you back
@WR this station keeps me sane in a insane world

11:06am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff Golick
It took all my strength not to play the title track. But since that tune really features the balaphone, I decided against it. With a heavy heart.

11:11am Jeff Golick:

Spielplatz No. 466 isn't really that great. Good call.

11:12am burke:

This must be the Berkeley sister? May the constitution of Nicaragua endure!

11:15am Doug Schulkind:

@burke
That exact sister!

@Jeff Golick
Glad we're on the same page.

11:22am Marie:

I LURVE Doug's African sets! Hello Doug and fellow listeners.

11:23am Alex in Illinois:

@Brian in UK, if I repeat that about ants, I'll credit you.

11:24am WR:

Ok, two meetings down, one meeting to go, let's see where are we now. Vibes out, African guitars in.

11:27am Doug Schulkind:

The pleasure is mine, Marie! So happy you dig it!

Put me on the speaker phone and ask everyone to do the boogaloo. After cover the accounts receivables for the third quarter, of course.

11:30am Uncle Michael:

Hello. I didn't forget...that I have a show today.

Hinky Dinky Time, at the top of the hour:

www.wfmu.org...

🥁

11:32am Artie:

Marimba me fondly when I'm gone.

11:34am Doug Schulkind:

I'm always delighted to fondle your marimba, Artie.

11:34am John from Florham park:

@Uncle Michael would not miss it

11:35am Uncle Michael:

Doug would fire me.

11:37am Listening Out There:

Does HR know that is going on?

11:38am Uncle Michael:

There is no echo in Topeka Canyon.

11:38am John from Florham park:

@Uncle Michael why would Doug fire you

11:38am Uncle Michael:

I've got an appointment with my union representative.

11:38am Uncle Michael:

If I missed my show.

11:39am John from Florham park:

@UM gotcha

11:39am Uncle Michael:

So it's best if nobody misses my show.

11:41am Doug Schulkind:

Firing Uncle Michael would be like firing my left kidney.

11:41am Marie:

Hee hee hee

11:42am Uncle Michael:

Notice he didn't compare me to his liver. He has two kidneys. I'm expendable.

11:42am Alex In Illinois:

I have heard a juke boxed called a "record machine" only in songs where it is rhymed with "seventeen".

11:42am Listening Out There:

You know, you can actually live just fine with only one kidney. That's why we have two...

11:43am Uncle Michael:

I'm not even sure his left is his favorite kidney.

11:44am Dominick:

Very '67 Warners' thing happening here

11:44am Uncle Michael:

Yeah, Dom. I'd like to know who produced that record.

11:45am Dominick:

UM - Label says Bright Tunes, Margo, Margo, Medress, & Siegel

11:45am Doug Schulkind:

Take a deep dive in the kidney-shaped swimming pool that is Hinky Dinky Time. But remember kids, no peeing!

DO THE BACK STROKE HERE: wfmu.org...

11:46am Uncle Michael:

Never heard of them, Dominick!

11:47am Doug Schulkind:

Can't live without YOU, Listening Out There.

11:47am Uncle Michael:

You've got to be kidney me, Doug.

11:50am Dominick:

UM -Bright Tunes = Tokens

11:50am Uncle Michael:

Ahhhh....thanks.

🥁

11:50am Brian in UK:

Thanks Mr DJ, prefer the breast stroke personally.

11:52am Uncle Michael:

I'm gonna tighten up my stroke and soothe your savage breast, Brian.

11:52am Listening Out There:

Thanks, host, but I really didn't donate *that* much to the station... :)

11:53am Uncle Michael:

There goes my 2020 Premium idea.

11:54am Phillippe Bastille:

Thank ya Doug!

11:55am Doug Schulkind:

"Sweet Bitter Love" was never commercially released. What danged fool buried it in the vaults, I wonder.

@Phillippe Bastille
So happy to facilitate, Sir!

11:57am Uncle Michael:

Thanks, Doug. See yo all in the next compartment. The train keeps a-rollin'.

🥁

11:57am dutchtheo:

Thanks Doug! Sweet vibes from the jukebox

11:57am burke:

Over too soon.

11:58am Marie:

Wow, so beautiful

11:59am WR:

Did John Lee just say GTD some? Probably Doug's regular outro and I'm just now noticing.

11:59am Rich in Washington:

Thanks for a great show, Doug!

11:59am Michael 98145:

me, too ..

12:00pm annie:

firsttimei've evergotten the first "HEY" in the opening tune!!

12:00pm Listening Out There:

Thankee!

12:01pm annie:

12:01pm Doug Schulkind:

Hi there annie!

12:01pm annie:

[closing theme]

12:01pm Doug Schulkind:

Greetings, Rich in Washington! Michael 98145!

12:02pm Doug Schulkind:
