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.
November 24, 2019: An Early Clue to the New Direction
I guess I've heard that Elvis track before (I've seen Viva Las Vegas) but man, if that's not a road not taken. That's got to be one of the most uptown Elvis takes ever.
I was thinking of Scott Walker when Therese played Jacque Brel earlier. Think of him a lot as Nite Flights is stuck in the car CD player, it plays, but won't eject.
Aha ... I see the Grey Cup is on. Will it be the Hamilton Tiger-Cats or the Winnipeg Blue Bombers? I'm not going to spoil the surprise. Hello, Gaylord and clue-seekers.
Holy cannoli! This instrumental version of "What Is Life" is amazing! Like discovering something you love all over again. Awesome. Hugs to ya Gaylord:)
Life is realizing that you can complain the Party sucks
- or do something interesting yerself.
WFMU is a perfect expression of this.
Ergo WFMU is Life.
Greetings from the PNW - just settling in for the evening, with some of the best programing around. Love Fabienne Delsol, and that Purple Wizard track sounded like a band to investigate further. Thanks from me as well for the Scott Walker!
@Aitch: It happens… Last week at work I mixed up Rodney Allen Rippy with Dick Gregory when I really meant Nipsey Russell when I inadvertently made a basic rhyme without intending to.
Lisa and I saw David Amram at the Jazz Forum in Tarrytown last week. He played Phil Ochs' "When I'm Gone." Amram is 89, and he tore the place apart. He's the nicest guy in show biz. How nice? Nicer than YOU, Gaylord! Just a tad.
Great show. Was listening while doing shopping and chores. So I have lots of ggling to do on what you've played. Chores not finished yet but wanted to say thanks before you wrap up. Phil Ochs brings a tear. Take care all, looking forward to our next round.
