Listener comments!

9:01am fleep:

I call shotgun!

9:02am Stanley:

Wakawakawaka, wah wah, screech honk, toooooooot!

9:02am Doug Schulkind:

Hop on in, fleep!

9:03am Gina Bacon:

Morning, Drummerstreamers!

9:04am Doug Schulkind:

It is a delight and a pleasure, Stanley. Welcome!

Ginaginaginaginaginagina!

9:04am Gina Bacon:

9:08am Doug Schulkind:

Of course, this calypso isn't at all a bossa nova. But rules were invented to be obliterated.

9:12am Phillippe Bastille:

Good morning from dreary Annapolis, Doug and everyone

9:14am Doug Schulkind:

Anchors aweigh, Phillippe Bastille!

9:14am Mr C:

Broadcasting live from the world famous Crawford Grill:
Give the Drummer Some! The Soul of Pittsburgh.

9:17am Doug Schulkind:

I'll have that New York strip ready for you, Mr C. I know I know, you like it served so rare, it still has a pulse.

9:19am Sem:

Good morning, Doug, and hello to the rare, the medium, and the very well-done.

9:20am Doug Schulkind:

Howdy, Sem!

9:21am Doug Schulkind:

9:28am Maggie B.:

love this driving beat!

9:29am Doug Schulkind:

Loving you loving it, Maggie B!

🥁

9:37am Brian in UK:

Hello Doug. As a former owner of a motorcycle and sidecar, I loves the gif.

9:42am Doug Schulkind:

Hello Brian in UK. Weeping and enraged for you and yours, my brother.

9:43am Jeff g. via app:

Hi. I mostly come here for the chat, but the music is a nice bonus, too.

9:44am Doug Schulkind:

Cheer me up, Jeff G!

🥁

9:47am Brian in UK:

Thanks Doug, no surprise. All governments should have a strong opposition/leader to keep those with power in check. Corbyn used to be a sniper, not a good CV for leading.

9:49am Doug Schulkind:

I fear we may be joining you soon, Brian. Instead of Brexit, it will be Democraxit.

9:50am Gina Bacon:

This is beautiful.

🥁

9:51am Brian in UK:

Ah Tom Brosseau!

9:51am Jeff g. via app:

I’d cheer you up, but this set is making me cry. That’s on you.

9:54am Doug Schulkind:

@Gina Bacon
If Tom Brosseau is ever in town, he would be a thrill to see. He remains the only artists I've ever had live on my show twice.

🥁

9:54am dutchtheo:

Howdëee y'all

9:56am Doug Schulkind:

I'm happy to see you, dutchtheo!

9:56am WR:

Damn, just waking up, gonna be late for work and looks the bossa already been here.

🥁

9:57am βrian:

Oh, dear. An island nation is digging a moat. What of Northern Ireland and Scotland?

🥁

9:57am Brian in UK:

Had to put this up because I find it so captivating.

9:57am Doug Schulkind:

You ain't the bossa of me, WR.

🥁

9:58am Brian in UK:

Doug, thanks for correcting mine, now yours old bean.

9:58am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff G
Give the Drummer Some. Makin' the boys cry since 1987.

9:59am bigplanetnoise:

Morning!Morning!

9:59am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
Oh, I get it. You were sending me a "message."

🥁

9:59am Brian in UK:

Howdy back, Dutch. (Did you used to be a cowboy?)

10:00am Doug Schulkind:

Wowie zowie, it's bigplanetnoise!

🥁

10:00am Brian in UK:

Trying to be subtle, but hey...

10:02am Doug Schulkind:

When the earth turns cold, and the earth turns white.

10:05am Gina Bacon:

bigplanetnoise!

10:05am mauri:

howdy doug and aawllll

🥁

10:07am dutchtheo:

Could be , Brian in the mess, sorry bout the medieval system and half of your medieval compatriots

10:07am Doug Schulkind:

mauri welcome!

10:10am northguineahills:

That drum/band trike isn't the most aerodynamic vehicle...… (I'd fear a crash cymbal flying off into my face)

🥁

10:11am Brian in UK:

@dutchtheo All sympathy donations gratefully received. The voting system is routed in the Fifteenth century, very medieval. Strong drink to follow soon.

10:11am Doug Schulkind:

Really, northguineahills. Did you have to say crash?

🥁

10:11am Brian in UK:

@ngh bit like Bullitt, the same car passes, not a VW though.

10:12am Gina Bacon:

Thank you for this nerve soothing set on a Friday morning!

🥁

10:13am dutchtheo:

Aha that's why they call it a crash cymbal, cheers BiUK

10:20am Gina Bacon:

Yay! Thanks, Doug!! ❤️

10:22am Doug Schulkind:

Can't wait for tomorrow afternoon is my regular refrain on Fridays, Gina!

10:22am Gina B:

That makes me very happy!

10:24am bigplanetnoise:

This is so perfect right now.

10:26am Doug Schulkind:

It's only getting perfecter, bigplanetnoise.

10:28am Doug Schulkind:

Eric Dolphy on clarinet here. Not bass clarinet. Clarinet.

10:28am Doug Schulkind:

Ron Carter on cello.

🥁

10:29am βrian:

@NGH: What's the employment situation? My wife finally got an offer, after 6 months of searching. Quite a relief.

10:29am Jeff g. via app:

Mmmmm

10:29am Doug Schulkind:

I want to scream it from the mountaintops. ERIC DOLPHY ON CLARINET. RON CARTER ON CELLO-O-O-O-O-O!

10:29am bigplanetnoise:

So great.

10:29am Gina B:

Yes...this is so nice.

10:31am Uncle Michael:

Good morning.

10:32am Doug Schulkind:

Also screaming from the mountaintops. HELLO-O-O-O-, UNCLE MICHAEL-L-L-L!

10:33am Doug Schulkind:

South Africa's two greatest alto saxists, Kippie Moeketsi and Dudu Pukwana, together on this one.

10:38am bigplanetnoise:

A vibacious treat!

10:39am Dean:

Trivia alert: it has probably been noted before, but both the McLean track and album titles were used in the '80s by, respectively, The Specials and Madness.

10:40am chresti:

Morning

🥁

10:42am dutchtheo:

Beautiful jazz set indeed. Ghost town, One step beyond was on my ska mixtape early 1980's

10:42am Doug Schulkind:

@bigplanetnoise
Guess I haven't gotten the vibes thing out of my system.

@Dean
I value highly your worthless information.

@chresti
Glad tidings upon your arrival

10:43am Mr C:

I bought this album in 1970 at a 99cents store inNYC.

🥁

10:43am dutchtheo:

@Dean great minds

10:43am Jeff g. via app:

There’s a conference room named after Grachan Moncur III at my current job.

10:43am chresti:

I know of Ghost Dance by Prince Buster

10:44am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff G
Wait, whut?!

10:47am Doug Schulkind:

@Mr C
I bought this album—and maybe another hundred Blue Note LPs—as a cut-out. One or two bucks a piece. Late '70s. Crazy.

🥁

10:47am dutchtheo:

chresti, its ghost dance, but Prince Buster was a major influence on the twotone ska revival

10:48am Doug Schulkind:

All at the Peaches record store on Rockville Pike out near the Putt-Putt Golf franchise. Rockville, Maryland.

10:48am chresti:

This part, the vibes!

🥁

10:49am Brian in UK:

Doug, I like a man that can keep his record buying under control.

🥁

10:49am dutchtheo:

Sorry Chresti, i thought you wrote ghost town

10:50am bigplanetnoise:

I sure remember the great, seemingly unending Blue Note cut-out extravaganza of the 70’s. What a time. So many stories. So many records!!!

10:52am Mr C:

99 cents stores in NY had all Blue Note and Atlantic cutouts.
I had maybe 4$ to spend..

10:52am chresti:

Dutch-I almost did :)

10:53am Doug Schulkind:

What a time that was. I was buying in bulk. I remember purchasing about 20 Yusef Lateef records (not on Blue Note) in one swoop. All for cheap cheap cheap. This things are the most important thing in the world to me. Crazy.

10:53am Dean:

Tower Records unloaded a bunch of Riverside and Fantasy LPs for pennies on the dollar in the '80s or '90s. I picked up the Bill Evans and Monk complete Riverside LP boxes, along with an assortment of other artists' vinyl.

10:53am Doug Schulkind:

Yeah, Mr C, it was all the Yusefs on Atlantic.

10:54am Jeff g. via app:

@Doug: it’s a Newark thing. There are also rooms named for James Moody, WBGO, Gloria Gaynor, and Queen Latifah. Among many others. It’s comforting, honestly.

10:55am Mr C:

The records I bought back then still mean the most to me..
They're forever imprinted in my head.

10:56am chresti:

I remember the cut-outs, big news in Hollywood. I never understood what a cut-out was, although I bought a few..

10:56am Dean:

That Don Ellis record on Candid was one of the catches from Tower Records.

10:56am northguineahills:

@βrian: I'm working at UPS to pay the bills, but I'm so wiped out I can't interview/apply for a jobby-job. (it's hard to compete w/ kids half my age, but I have the best numbers and track record). However, as a side-effect, I'm rather ripped for the first time in my life.

🥁

10:59am βrian:

@NGH: Well, keep the faith. My wife had to do regular "job tasks," to satisfy the requirements for unemployment. Naturally, that made it near impossible to apply for professional jobs.

11:00am Jeff g. via app:

Rob Brown!!

11:00am Webhamster Henry:

Acid Jazz Hands is yet another show that I don't have to do because Bronwyn B. is doing it for me!

11:02am Dean:

Rather Ripped was a fine record store in Berkeley, ngh. Now the space is a coffee shop.

11:02am chresti:

ngh-is the ups gig full time? I usually don't last more than a year with full time jobs

🥁

11:05am Brian in UK:

Dean, do you know Mod Lang record shop and label?

11:05am chresti:

Bronwyn B has got SKILLS! I know from when she has engineered Billy Jam's show

🥁

11:06am Brian in UK:

All hail, Sahel Sounds.

11:07am Doug Schulkind:

Sahel with you, Brian in UK.

11:09am Dean:

I do, Brian in UK. I don't visit that often, because she keeps weird hours. Quite a stash, though.

11:10am chresti:

Agree, I raise my coffee cup to Sahel Sounds (and Brian from UK), and Doug for bringing it to us!

11:10am Doug Schulkind:

@NGH
UPS is hard work. When I worked in the back room at Target I helped the driver load boxes every day. Some of those boxes were huge pieces of furniture. He moved them around like they were nothing.

11:12am Dean:

When I move -- never again! -- I have to pack up the LPs and CDs. A box of LPs can be very heavy. (Same for a box of books if it's too big.) Last move I hired movers after I'd packed the boxes. They would stack two or three boxes of LPs at a time, then carry them from truck to room.

🥁

11:13am bobdc:

Hey Doug! Today's GIF reminds me of the Roswell Rudd Dixieland jalopy sequences in the movie "Jazz on a Summer's Day."

🥁

11:13am Brian in UK:

Dean, odd thing is that the Englishman who co-owned it with the woman that now runs it has returned back home and has opened a record shop in the nearest town (Ludlow) to us. He stocks a few Mississippi records. Got an Abner Jay there. Nice fella.

11:15am Dean:

I remember reading about that, Brian in UK. They were married at one time, I believe. Had a store in downtown Berkeley, but the rents got crazy, so they moved north two towns to El Cerrito. Not far. They're next door to a violin maker, Ifshin.

11:17am northguineahills:

@Dean:It's also a SY album.....

11:18am Doug Schulkind:

Back in the '90s, there was a WFMU listener who was a professional art mover. He had a big-ass panel truck and he occasionally donated his services to the station for various projects. When I needed to move out of my five-floor walkup to a new apartment, I hired him to move me. He gave me a great price. On the day of the move, he shows up at my apartment with three or four rag-tag guys who he scooped up off the Bowery. They were all recovering addicts who were in a job-core program that was part of their rehab. Seeing the sight of these poor fellows carrying box after box after box of vinyl down those stairs (and then upstairs to the new apartment) was a horror. And they were getting paid obscenely little. I tipped them all, but the scenes of that move are acid-etched in my soul.

11:20am Uncle Michael:

Ululate!

11:21am Dean:

Better ululate than never.

11:21am Sem:

Better ululate than never, UM.

11:21am Doug Schulkind:

No, you, Uuuuncle Michael.

11:21am Dean:

Bang!

11:21am Sem:

Mind meld?

11:22am Stanley:

This set has revived me no end.

🥁

11:22am dutchtheo:

Ulu later,
Good suggestion Brian in UK

11:22am Dean:

When this happens too often, I fear we don't need to listen, because we have all always already and at once heard the entire show.

11:23am Doug Schulkind:

The closing set today will be soul with a "Touch of Country"®.

11:23am Uncle Michael:

You you on time for Hinky Dinky Time, no ululate! Top of the hour.

www.wfmu.org...

11:23am fleep:

Joke entanglement. Quantum radio.

11:24am Sem:

Late working day doldrums, Stanley?

11:24am northguineahills:

@Doug: I never take painkillers, but I'm taking 6 Ibuprofen a day plus my mother's Celebrex. I just cut off a dermal abscess off my toe and lanced a blood blister under my big toe nail (no anesthesia for me, and it's best if I do it myself). At UPS you are encouraged to hustle as much as possible, so my cardio is up too.

11:25am Rich in Washington:

Holy crow! This smokes plenty!

11:26am Doug Schulkind:

@northguineahills
I need an Ibuprofen just for reading that. Yowch!

11:28am northguineahills:

@Doug: I moved all of my crap into storage myself last July, and it was mostly vinyl and books. I pretty much stayed in bed the next two days. (luckily, both were ground floors).

11:28am Webhamster Henry:

@ngh ouch!

11:29am northguineahills:

Gary played Azna de L'Ader in 2018....

11:30am Dean:

I think that Wallahi le Zein record is from 2011.

11:31am Rich in Washington:

@northguineahills: I briefly worked at (but not FOR) a UPS depot when I was working during school. A pretty cushy gig doing auditing, but was always impressed by the extreme hustle of the floor workers. It was the first time I'd ever seen a work crew do military style morning calisthenics.

🥁

11:33am βrian:

Six vitamin I per day? That's damn steep!

11:34am Doug Schulkind:

Great number penned by Hank Cochran.

11:35am thedunkel / el carnicero francés:

Good Morning Mr. Drummer! Good Morning all!

11:36am Doug Schulkind:

Good morning, thedunkel!

And good morning, Rich in Washington!

🥁

11:36am dutchtheo:

"Touch the Soul with a touch of Candy"®.

11:37am ParUbi:

Hi, Doug!

11:38am rw:

Morning! This is country with a touch of soul or was it the other way around?

🥁

11:38am dutchtheo:

Damn *Candi*

11:38am Rich in Washington:

Hi Doug! Digging your show on my long commute!

11:39am Doug Schulkind:

Hey hey, ParUbi!

11:40am Doug Schulkind:

@Rich in Washington
Just keep dog-paddling. You'll get there eventually.

🥁

11:40am Brian in UK:

Thanks Mr Drummer.

11:40am CHUCK ROAST:

Hey, who was the dude that sampled Candi ? Double Eskimo or something ?

11:41am Dean:

One Eskimo

11:41am Doug Schulkind:

CHUCK ROAST is here, ya'll! Someone show him the secret handshake.

My pleasure, Brian in UK. Always and forever.

11:49am Sem:

Ciao for now, Head DJ Doug. Lovely spins, hope to join you and all again here next week.

11:49am Phillippe Bastille:

Missed most of this last set -- it looks wonderful, will have to hit it up on the archives

11:50am Doug Schulkind:

I will keep a comfy cushion ready for you, Sem!

11:50am Uncle Michael:

We just recently lost Jackie Moore.

11:51am Doug Schulkind:

@Phillippe Bastille
Pretty darn wonderful.

11:51am Rich in Washington:

Fantastic cover, this!

11:51am Doug Schulkind:

Jackie died in early November.

11:54am WR:

Yes, UM, I was digging her singing and looking her up and saw that.

11:54am Doug Schulkind:

Hinky Dinky Time is, I am pleased to report, is very much alive! It's alive! It's alive!

STOP BY AND VISIT: wfmu.org...

11:55am Doug Schulkind:

I loved it when Merle Haggard sang, "If the disco DJ's still there..."

11:57am Phillippe Bastille:

Thanks Doug

11:57am Uncle Michael:

Thank you, Doug. See you fine folks soon!

11:58am Doug Schulkind:

The Mirettes used to be the Ikettes.

My pleasure, Phillippe Bastille!

🥁

11:58am dutchtheo:

My kinda country soul, mate. Thanks Doug!

11:59am fleep:

Thanks for the ride, Doug!

11:59am northguineahills:

@βrian: I do have arthritis in my knees from botched surgeries on my knees in my 20s and a shattered toe (thanks to soccer). Thankfully, I sill have an athletic body even though I had to quit soccer and middle distance running due to said arthritis.

Thanks Doug!

🥁

12:00pm Brian in UK:

After all he's just a man. Which reminds me that Ken Burns has just reached these shores.

12:04pm Doug Schulkind:

That wuz fun! Thanks, everyhuman!
