	👻 9:04am Marley P. Dogg: Morning John! Morning everyone! Hope everyone well
	👻 9:05am p20: I played an experimental improv noise show several years ago. Perhaps because I was playing upright bass, some members of the audience had certain expectations, which were unmet. After the show a nicely dressed older lady approached me and said "I know what jazz is supposed to sound like, and THAT'S NOT JAZZ!"
	9:06am John Allen: Jazz denier
	👻 9:07am karlward: p20: give them the jazz they need, not the jazz they want
	👻 9:08am p20: haha. we never promised them jazz though, we used some weasely word like 'electroacoustic'
	👻 9:09am Rob (Jerzcity): "I know what compliments are supposed to sound like, and THAT'S NOT NICE!"
	9:10am Malcolm: hellohellohello
	9:10am stephen adams in the uk: good morning, love wake up
	9:10am Acid Cazh: !@!$!@$ not this song again. I'm glad folks appear to like it, but I'm turning off my radio for the next fifteen minutes until this is over.
	9:11am David in London: Greetings JA and all Allenites. Hey Handy, p20 et al. And jazz is as jazz does.
	👻 9:11am Threemoons: Good morning JA, fellow AMers. Just had the fastest shower of my life to make it to my desk by 9...
	9:12am WoodsOfNH: “Jazz is stupid! I mean, just play the right notes!” ... favorite tee vee jazz-related quote ever.
	👻 9:12am karlward: BLUE LOU
	👻 9:12am karlward: Quine destroys forever on this song
	9:13am George of Troy: Howdy John
	👻 9:13am p20: my bass teacher once said "in jazz you're never more than a half-step away"
	👻 9:14am karlward: Listening to "Waves of Fear" in this context is really intense. Play it pretty for the shut-ins
	👻 9:15am p20: (we never got around to discussing microtonalism)
	9:15am John Allen: Mornin george!
	9:15am steveo: Good morning! Weird... whenever I turn off my radio, I assume it's because of some deficiency in myself and don't say anything.
	9:16am DaveinPA: wait...the radio has an 'off' setting...???
	9:18am DJ Guin: "You belong to the Citi.. CitiBank."
	👻 9:18am karlward: Across the country, 1986 yearbooks are being dragged out from the box in the basement, old crushes recontacted, maybe that magazine cut-out picture of Don Johnson is going back on the bedroom wall, taped directly to the paint. Watch your back when the midnight sax is out in the daylight.
	👻 9:18am Marley P. Dogg: This is great - haven’t heard this song in so long
	9:20am WoodsOfNH: Is it time for the Felder yet?!!!! Oh shoot, wrong day. Sorry.
	9:20am WoodsOfNH: @p20 Plus, if you're off by a half-step you just repeat it and it's a riff!
	👻 9:21am p20: this proves (as if proof were needed) that Having A Saxophone Does Not Make It Jazz
	9:21am David in London: I’m rolling up the sleeves of my jacket and driving my speedboat across the sea towards a blazing neon sunset.
	👻 9:21am p20: @WoodsOfNH: Yeah, the slogan for that is "Repetition legitimizes"
	9:21am DaveinPA: so Bill Bergman played the sax in the Frey version also...
	9:22am jmr3: wow, the whiplash from Waves of Fear to ... Midnight Sax, is ... difficult
	9:23am DaveinPA: Pharoah Sanders and his secret embalming recipe...
	👻 9:24am p20: @WoodsOfNH: Or if you know enough music theory, you just call it a flat 9, or an augmented 6, or a tritone substitution or something. You can justify anything if you know enough terminology
	👻 9:24am p20: @JA: NOW THAT'S NICE! :)
	9:25am DJ Guin: "Sax-amaphone...SAX-a-ma-phone..."

	👻 9:47am Handy Haversack: That was a terrifying foray into the lands of How Little Handy Knows About Hardware. Sounds are comforting. Show sounds great, JA.
	👻 9:49am p20: @Handy: It helps to have 2 computers so you can use one of them to look up instructions while you fix the other :)

	9:56am jake6573: @p20. no ridicule here, you are entitled to like/dislike what you want here. It's freeform radio. Ha. I'm just aggravated missed Dylan at the Beacon. Last time I saw Lou Reed was in the StonyBrook University gym. Early 80's . Hr was GREAT !

	10:18am pzolla: Woh this feels so good right now, guitar bath
	10:20am Crudbringer: JA the only thing I'm missing right now is a Bob Ross GIF to go with this Jan Hammer track.

	11:28am Carmichael: Heya JA and AMers. I love those old cart players. I would spend hours splicing tapes with razors to get the "clonk" just right. Show's gotta be TIGHT!
	11:29am Snow in Chicago: What a nice song, thanks
	11:29am Carmichael: I take it people didn't care for the Hammer/Beck album either?
	11:32am steveo: 2 questions: how much was the cart machine? how many carts ya got?
	11:33am ami ad: Are people gonna care for the Depp/Beck album?
	👻 11:34am p20: just got back from a snowy drive in Chicago - went to the deli to pick up an order of bagels and smoked salmon, yum
	11:34am Crudbringer: Holding out for a Seagal/Berdimuhamedow release.
	👻 11:36am p20: The streets are really empty this morning. I listened to JA on the 'FMU app in the car. I toggled between that and a few local Chicago stations. Lumpen radio was playing something that sounded like Alice Coltrane. A real nice mix.
	11:37am ami ad: I'm hopeful for the Dylan/Cardi B collab.
	11:40am airbornepizza: I've never listened to this show before. That ramzi song was really cool. : )

	👻 11:50am p20: Anyone else experiencing brief but repeated dropouts in the 128k mp3 stream?
	11:51am chresti: Hi Carmichael. He's sitting across from me inking a drawing and drinking coffee.
	11:51am Carmichael: @p20. the pop-up is taking the occasional hit.
	11:51am jake6573: what was the song where the vocals sounded like one, one,.sounded like clapton cream ?
	11:51am mariano: Yeah, happened to me a few times, p20. Like 1-2 seconds tops. Using popup on a wired connection.
	11:52am coelacanth∅: hi mariano & chresti
	👻 11:52am p20: Ok, no big thing. Just wondering if it was my internet connection or something upstream
	11:52am chresti: Hi coel

	11:56am chresti: Hi Handy.
	11:57am Snow in Chicago: Another awesome song. Thanks again
	11:57am mariano: Thanks JA and crew!
	11:58am chresti: My cd player does the same thing, I hit it when that happens.
	11:58am testingwithfire: @p20: near-constant downpour for the last 36 hours :-/ Official case count in this part of the country is still very low, probably because of neoliberal testing policies.
	11:58am mariano: Thought it was a young Roy Harper!
	11:58am Jeezy: FYI: correct spelling according to Spotify: Miighty Flashlight, Ballet SKool. Great stuff.

	👻 12:01pm p20: @testingwithfire: Snowing here in Chicago, 2 days in a row. But it's keeping people inside their houses which is probably a good thing
	👻 12:02pm p20: no, not 2 days in a row: Tuesday and Friday. Time has lost all meaning, the days are all jumbled up.
	12:06pm Jeezy: Yeah and spotify has the original version of Randy Newman's classic "guilty" under guity (!)

JA In The AM with John Allen: Playlist from April 17, 2020

View John Allen's profile

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

	11:34am Crudbringer: Holding out for a Seagal/Berdimuhamedow release.
	👻 11:36am p20: The streets are really empty this morning. I listened to JA on the 'FMU app in the car. I toggled between that and a few local Chicago stations. Lumpen radio was playing something that sounded like Alice Coltrane. A real nice mix.
	11:37am ami ad: I'm hopeful for the Dylan/Cardi B collab.
	11:40am airbornepizza: I've never listened to this show before. That ramzi song was really cool. : )

	11:51am chresti: Hi Carmichael. He's sitting across from me inking a drawing and drinking coffee.
	11:51am Carmichael: @p20. the pop-up is taking the occasional hit.
	11:51am jake6573: what was the song where the vocals sounded like one, one,.sounded like clapton cream ?

	11:57am mariano: Thanks JA and crew!
	11:58am chresti: My cd player does the same thing, I hit it when that happens.
	11:58am testingwithfire: @p20: near-constant downpour for the last 36 hours :-/ Official case count in this part of the country is still very low, probably because of neoliberal testing policies.
