Listener comments!
	🥁 3:00pm david w: Ridgewood Radio moves to 5-7pm EDT starting next week! Lots of news!
	🥁 3:01pm listener james from westwood: I have adjusted my iPhone alarm to that effect!
	🥁 3:02pm david w: Hi, james. Me too.
	3:06pm doctorjazz: Lovely start!
	🥁 3:06pm listener james from westwood: And there is one helluva lot going on in that photo.
	3:10pm fred: Good afternoon David, Ruth and listeners
	3:11pm Dean: The Zimmerman set arrived one year before Dick Hyman's complete keyboard works box. In 1976 Deutsche Grammophon issued the first(?) complete recording of Treemonisha. The mid-'70s were good for Scott Joplin.
	🥁 3:11pm david w: Hello djazz, thanks. And yes, james, that photo has a lot to unwrap.
	🥁 3:13pm david w: Hello, fred and hello Dean. Bethena is complex and the more I listened the more I admired it.
	3:23pm Dean: Joshua Rifkin recorded it in 1972, too. Engineered by the marvelous Joanna Nickrenz and Marc Aubort.
	3:26pm Doug Schulkind: I just added a Taborn track to my pile for Friday's show. What a deep and lovely player. Loving this duet.
	🥁 3:28pm david w: Doug! Yes, Taborn is a special one. Every time.
	🥁 3:31pm david w: It's interesting how Kris Davis embraces kind of a support role, but brilliantly.
	3:31pm Dean: Heard Taborn with Sonny Simmons and Cosmosamatics in Oakland probably fifteen years ago.
	3:31pm Webhamster Henry: These guys are busy.
	3:31pm Doug Schulkind: Hugely rich piece on Taborn by Adam Shatz in the NYT (2017): www.nytimes.com...
	🥁 3:32pm david w: WebHen! Yeah, lots of fingers in action.
	3:34pm Doug Schulkind: I downloaded the Davis/Taborn duet record Octopus a few months ago. Embarrassed to say I haven't gotten to it yet.
	3:37pm fred: I saw Taborn a few times (with Tim Berne and Tom Rainey each time, and one or two others)
	3:41pm ruth: Hi everybody! I just got back from the eye doctor and my eyes have unblurred enough to type! So glad to see everybody!!
	🥁 3:41pm david w: @fred and all: do you know Kris Davis too? Really worth a listen.
	🥁 3:42pm david w: ruth!
	3:43pm Doug Schulkind: Hi ruth!
	3:45pm ruth: @David is this our first keyboard special? It is after all your first love...
	3:47pm fred: @david: I saw him just once, maybe ten years ago
	🥁 3:47pm david w: No, but it is special for the moment.
	3:50pm Dean: That photo was taken in 1955, but there is footage of Ellington playing baseball around 1941: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-institution/rare-footage-duke-ellington-highlights-when-jazz-baseball-were-perfect-harmony-180950303/
	3:52pm ruth: Thanks for that Dean!
	🥁 3:52pm david w: Thanks, Dean. I love the Library of Congress image libraries. Amazing.
	3:53pm Dean: You're welcome, Ruth & David. Same here.
	3:54pm ruth: Wonder what ever happened to that sign? "Colored Astor Motel"....
	3:56pm ruth: So unbelievable and in 1955.
	3:56pm Dean: Says something under "Colored," too. There's a 14MB TIFF...
	3:58pm ruth: Even looks like neon.
	3:58pm Doug Schulkind: I've always had mixed feelings about this Duke photo because it captures him in such an inelegant position. His batting stance/swing is just miserable!
	4:01pm Dean: A story in the Baltimore Afro-American, April 16, 1955, reports that some of the Milwaukee Braves were staying at the motel at the same time as Ellington's band. Among the players, Hank Aaron.
	🥁 4:04pm david w: Doug! He got fooled by an outside slider!
	4:08pm ruth: I don't think I've heard this. Really amazing can't believe that's a trumpet. my tiny mind blown once again. Thanks David
	🥁 4:09pm david w: @Dean: that breaks my heart and make me want to get out on the street and scream.
	4:14pm gailvachon: But didn't you already want to go out on the street and scream?
	🥁 4:15pm chresti: Hello David, ruth, and Ridgewood company! Home from work.
	🥁 4:16pm david w: Yes, Gail. And I admit I have.
	4:16pm Dean: The same BA-A story--a column titled "Theatrical Whirl"--also reports that Lois Towles had embarked on a 45-day tour. I'd never heard of her. She was an African American classical pianist and teacher who studied with Arthur Rubinstein and Nadia Boulanger.
	🥁 4:17pm david w: chresti! take a breath.
	🥁 4:19pm david w: The big Drummer story for today: Kenzo’s Last Ever Radio Extravaganza 5-7pm: Farewell, Wednesdays! Nothing? Something? Everything at once? What happens when it's really the last one? Let's find out together during the last-ever Wednesday sound-collage escape, before the project moves to Mondays 3-5pm ET, eternally. (And Ridgewood Radio moves into Kenzo’s old slot at 5pm EDT starting next week July 15.) Gary Sullivan’s Bodega Pop Live 7-10pm: Happy Together: Punk and avant-pop from Yugoslavia's twilight years. A soured East-West German collaboration. The iconic diva and the composer she spent half a century avoiding. Dispersed Assyrians. Deconstructed Fleetwood Mac. Sam Segal’s If You Lose Your Horse 10-midnite
	4:22pm ruth: Hi chresti and Gail!
	4:22pm gailvachon: HI Ruth and David and everyone. I'm a sucker for Terry Riley any time.
	4:23pm ruth: @ Gail Yeah me too!
	4:24pm fred: I'm reading a book of interviews with Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, and today I read the part where she delves into her choreography on Piano Phase, Violin Phase, Come Out and Clapping Music
	🥁 4:26pm david w: @fred: these early works still hit me hard.
	4:28pm Dean: Yep, Drumming. Just wow.
	🥁 4:32pm david w: I worked for Steve Reich in the early 80s and saw these two pianists up close. Incredible.
	4:34pm heinseng: woooooow
	🥁 4:36pm david w: heinseng you darlings!
	4:36pm fred: De Keersmaeker often works with the Ictus ensemble, so I saw them play live in dance show, including those early works, Drumming and Music for 18 musicians
	🥁 4:39pm david w: Music for 18 and Tehillim were the two pieces I helped Steve Reich "set up" for concerts.
	4:41pm ruth: Wow really David? That's so cool!
	4:46pm ruth: Fred I hope you and all our European listeners will still be able to join us at our new time next week. A bit on the late side in Europe!
	🥁 4:47pm david w: Drummer Stream Discotheque: this week’s installment takes place Fri., July 10, 3-7pm with Larry Grogan of Testify! hosting with a four-hour garage and psyche avalanche, packed end-to-end with fuzz, jangle and phase!
	4:48pm ruth: Heinseng Hiya!
	4:50pm heinseng: Ruuuuuuuth! Hello!
	🥁 4:55pm listener james from westwood: Thanks, Ridgewoodians!
	4:56pm gailvachon: Thanks for this great show!
	4:56pm fred: Thanks David! @Ruth: I plan to, at least the first hour (my upstairs neighbor complains easily)
	4:56pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Oh hi! This is it, no more Ken's Last Ever ever lasting after this (*because it's moved to Mondays 3-5pm ET). Hear it one last Wednesday time, now! "You Can't Separate Them Later": wfmu.org...
	4:56pm Webhamster Henry: [vexations: throwback to the Boredcast]
	🥁 4:58pm david w: Thanks, james, gail, fred, WebHen and everybody.
	4:58pm Webhamster Henry: I should be able to transition to the new timeslot. It's nice to shake up the schedule every once in a while.
