WFMU: Shrunken Planet with Jeffrey Davison: Playlist from August 29, 2020

Listener comments!
	6:02am Ruth Booth: Good Morning, Jeffrey!
	6:03am Jeffrey Davison: Hey, there Ruth! Good morning!
	6:11am Really Lisa: Good Saturday morning, Jeffrey. Always love this show but extra thanks today! It’s keeping me from getting too frazzled in the next few hours before my friends arrive to help me move.
	6:14am Heidee: A happy Guten Morgen from Heidelberg to all listeners and to Jeffrey pampering us with this beautiful, beautiful music.
	6:15am Sem: Hello and good morning, Jeffrey and Ruth (ITB), and greets Really Lisa and Heidee, from the serence shores of the mighty placid Bay of Fundy.
	6:16am Sem: serene
	6:16am Heidee: serene is this listening experience, too
	6:17am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning Really Lisa. Glad you're on board. Good luck with the move. Hard for it not to be stressful, but friends that will help you with that are like gold. There was a period when I moved a lot, and I was always grateful for the help.
	6:18am Jeffrey Davison: Heidee, good morning to you. Glad you're enjoying!
	6:18am Jeffrey Davison: Sem, good morning. I love New York, but Nova Scotia sounds pretty, pretty, pretty good right about now.
	6:22am Really Lisa: Good morning to you too, Sem, and Heidee. Hope all is as well as can be. Thanks for the good wishes, Jeffrey. That’s me. I tend to move to get closer to contract jobs. Every few years. This time it’s also to have a bit of a fresh start. I’m lucky for sure, two good people stepping up with pickup trucks. This is the first time I don’t have to rent a box truck.
	6:23am Sylvia (France-NYC): Hello Jeffrey and planet beings, from a chilly corner in France
	6:27am Jeffrey Davison: Sylvia (France-NYC), greetings from a not-yet-steamy New York City...
	6:28am LiXiviated Life: “I have seen them flash among cars or lean so low into the curved wrist of the road to brake would kill them, yet a whole pack will stand for hours in the rain” - N Willard ( 2020 Tour de France starts today)
	6:31am Jeffrey Davison: LiXiviated Life, good morning, and another nice one, perfectly apt. Thanks.
	6:33am Heidee: Hi Sem, enjoy the soundtrack to this breathtaking nature. Hi Lisa, hope you will enjoy all the positive aspects - decluttering, a fresh start, and becoming what you want to be.
	6:55am dale: morning. nice sounds, these...
	6:55am fred: @LIXiviated Life: I didn't know that. This should be a different kind of race. They're so good at "dealing" with tests that cheating on the results and trying to make other teams test positive will be the real competition
	6:57am Mayuko via app: Good morning!!
	7:03am queems: mourning jewelry is fascinating. they made jewelry out of dead people’s hair, jet, and usually included a lot of skull motifs
	7:04am Sylvia (France-NYC): speaking of cancer... RIP Chadwick Boseman, what a loss for the Black community and the arts and the world...
	7:05am Cooh John: Good morning Jeffrey, Sem, Ruth, et.al. So good to be with my fellow planeteers and starting my day with great music and great people. Such a tonic to me.
	7:07am Jeffrey Davison: dale: good morning, and thank you! Mayuko: good morning! queems...good morning! Thanks for the extra info. Sylvia: yes, I saw that this morning. Awful. Cooh John, welcome! ...and thank you.
	7:07am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Good Morning with grateful ears.
	7:08am Fredericks: What is jet, Queems?
	7:08am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning, Revolution Rabbit Nov63, and thanks!
	7:10am fred: I just completed a third batch of buying tickets for shows next season (53 total, mostly dance, a couple for Congolese theater, and 8 concerts). I know most won't happen, but these companies will die if nobody takes the chance, so....
	7:11am duke: Hello Jeffrey and fellow Planeteers. I slept late today.
	7:13am Heidee: duke, sleeping is helathy :-)
	7:13am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning fred! (what a wonderful gesture, and I do hope you get to see most or all of those shows) Good morning Fredericks and duke!
	7:13am Heidee: *healthy
	7:16am queems: @fredericks jet is fossilized wood that was black and usually carved into decorative pendants, brooches or beads
	7:17am nematomorpha: morning shrunkeneers. Grey and cloudy day here in Vienna. Enjoying the tunes... wishing i wouldn't have to go to work in an hour. somebody wants to go instead of me?
	7:18am Heidee: nematomorpha, what is it you are doing?
	7:18am Jeffrey Davison: nematomorpha...good morning to you! Sorry about the work thing.
	7:20am duke: Olivia Kaplan is perfect for this rainy morning here.
	7:21am nematomorpha: Heidee: i'm a cook at a small restaurante. deal?
	7:21am Jeffrey Davison: duke, yeah, agreed. She's new on the L.A. music scene.
	7:22am mark at Koncepts: Great start this morning.
	7:23am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning, mark at Koncepts, and thanks!
	7:28am TDK60: Good morning.
	7:31am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning, TDK60!
	7:31am Heidee: nematomorpha, deal if you want to buy a pig in a poke :-)
	7:31am deborah: Good Morning Everyone!
	7:31am Heidee: Morning debs. Are you well?
	7:33am nematomorpha: ohh.. Townes.
	7:33am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning, deborah!
	7:34am deborah: @Heidee Yes, just dreading the beginning of the Fall semester. Going to teach less starting Spring semester. Decision time. Taught a good class on You and Your Energies last night. And you, Heidee?
	7:36am deborah: Songs match this grey, quiet mood. I think the show was recorded earlier, though.
	7:36am Cooh John: Thanks for the Townes. Thoughts drifting west?
	7:38am Jeffrey Davison: Cooh John, my brother and sister-in-law moved to Colorado last week. Good move for them, but it's a long way to Colorado!
	7:39am Jeffrey Davison: deborah...there is usually a bit of a grey cast (pall?) over my life! ;)
	7:39am Ted in Montclair: Good morning and end-of-August greetings, Jeffrey and Planeteers. I love these plaintive ballads, especially I Guess He’d Rather.... My theory is that any song with Colorado in the title is a good one.
	7:41am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning Ted in Montclair! The song you reference is from a 1970 album, when a lot of hippies were either moving to Colorado, Vermont or other rural destinations, or singing about it!
	7:42am Heidee: @deborah, yes, hopefully all goes well with teaching, numbers are rising again in Germany with the post-holiday madness. Yes, monitoring your energies is important, sometimes less is more. I am better, nearly well, but won't hold my breath. Back to school mid-September (here is the snag, nematomorpha!), but will be assigned for homeschooling, which is a relief.
	7:43am deborah: @Ted in Montclair: There is Judy Collins epic, Colorado. Still holds images of the 1970s and the feeling of going that Jeffrey speaks of. Thinking about Tom Rush's Urge for Going which fits too.
	7:43am Andrew in Etobicoke: Good morning Jeffrey and all other Planeteers.
	7:45am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning Andrew in Etobicoke! Heidee, glad to hear that you're home schooling...
	7:46am Cooh John: All the best to those out west.
	7:47am Jeffrey Davison: Cooh John, thank you.
	7:48am deborah: @Heidee: Great! No classroom!
	7:49am Heidee: @ deborah, hurray! jammies and coffee and video conferences!
	7:52am Cooh John: I share your feelings. Last weekend I happened to be staying in Jersey City so I could get my daughter and her family to Ireland.
	7:53am deborah: @Heidee, Ah, if it was that easy where I teach. Three hour Canvas presence continued interaction with students and more faculty meetings than I have ever experienced. Classroom teaching was easier but it is not an option for the upcoming academic year, probably.
	7:54am Jeffrey Davison: Cooh John, oh yeah, I remember you mentioned that. Hope that went well.
	7:55am TDK60: Deborah, do you know which album that Collins Colorado song was on?
	7:55am Jeffrey Davison: By the way, my Instagram handle is shrunkenplanet_wfmu
	7:57am Cooh John: It went great.
	7:59am Heidee: @deborah, yes a lot is expected of you. Still sure you will be teaching from your heart, you just sound like that kind of person.
	8:03am Fredericks: Thanks for the info, Queems.
	8:07am kpx: Good Gray and overcast Saturday planeteers. trust that everyone is doing well. I always find days like this calming and peaceful. Hello Jeffrey D, and Ruth B.
	8:09am Jeffrey Davison: kpx, good morning, and welcome!
	8:09am Ted in Montclair: @Deborah — thanks. Are you referring to Someday Soon, one of my all-time favorites? I love Urge for Going, anything with that high lonesome feeling. Such as Across the Great Divide by Kate Wolf, and West by Lucinda Williams.
	8:10am deborah: @TDK60: Not sure. There are versions on a couple of albums including her new one, Winter Stories, with Jonas Feld collaborating.
	8:10am Fredericks: Hello, Jeffrey and Planet People. This "Same Old Stagolee" is the most I heard of Steve in one of Justin's performances.
	8:12am deborah: @Ted in Montclair Someday Soon is a different song. Love the feeling Tom Rush's music evoked, Urge for Going, No Regrets etc. Never heard West, will look it up. Oh, Justin Townes Earle evokes similar feelings.
	8:12am Fredericks: Jeffrey, quite a while back, you played a great song by Good Luck Mountain, you don't happen to recall which song that was, do you?
	8:15am TDK60: Deborah, I recall when Rush's 'Urge' came out (probably played on WFMU, WBAI, etc.). I think he was the first to popularize a Joni Mitchell tune.
	8:16am Ted in Montclair: @Deborah — I think you’re referring to The Blizzard, from a quick YouTube search. Rest In Peace Justin Townes Earle.
	8:16am StringOFperils: Good morning JD, and all.
	8:16am Jeffrey Davison: Fredericks, in 2020 I played a song called The Perfect Circle. In 2018 I played Heaven in the Haze.
	8:17am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning StringOFperils!
	8:18am melinda: Morning everyone
	8:18am Fredericks: Wonderful! Thanks, Jeffrey.
	8:19am nholliewog: listening from Suffolk Va... thanks for all this great JTE, RIP
	8:20am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning, melinda! You're welcome Fredericks and nholliewog... Yes, RIP Justin.
	8:29am melinda: I didn’t know JTE died. He was young.
	8:32am Strandlund: I love starting my weekends with your program Jeffrey.
	8:32am kpx: All these JTE songs reminds me of a song by EELS called, I like the way this is going. it would fit in perfect with this set.
	8:32am TDK60: So, Ted in Montclair, Deborah we found that that song is "The Blizzard" by J. Collins off her "Fire of Eden" album, 2013. Supposedly an epic tune.
	8:33am Jeffrey Davison: Strandlund, good morning, and thank you for the kind words. kpx...don't know it...thanks.
	8:35am TDK60: Thanks for the J.T. Earle tribute. I hadn't heard of him before this. I do know Steve Earle.
	8:36am Jeffrey Davison: TDK60, he was a great talent, and a great guy, from all reports. melinda, Justin was 38.
	8:37am Sem: ^, same. Knew he was writing and recording, but had heard nothing of his work. Hey, TDK.
	8:38am Jeffrey Davison: Seems appropriate play more Townes Van Zandt, not that I need any encouragement. One of the very greatest. Here's a quote from his NY Times obit, though...“My mother hated Townes Van Zandt,” Mr. Earle told Rolling Stone in 2019, “because of the trouble that Dad and him got into.”
	8:39am Fredericks: You have an amazing memory, Jeffrey.
	8:40am TDK60: Morning Sem.
	8:41am Jeffrey Davison: Fredericks, if you only knew! My memory is awful. I used the WFMU Advanced Playlist Search. Thanks all the same.
	8:46am Sem: Astonishing run of songs here. Only on this Shrunken Planet. Thx +++, Jeffrey.
	8:47am Jeffrey Davison: Sem, thank you. I love the freedom to go in any direction...
	8:47am dale: vin scelsa used to tell some great stories about when he managed townes.
	8:47am 12539: Nice tribute, Jeffrey. Thanks and take care!
	8:48am Hugo (NL): Hi there! very comforting sounds. thanks Jeffrey!
	8:48am Jeffrey Davison: dale, I'll bet! Thanks 12539 and Hugo (NL)!
	8:49am clarke: howdy from new orleans - and good-day too - GREAT show as ALWAYS
	8:50am Corey: Really enjoyed the tribute. Thanks, Jeffrey!
	8:50am Jeffrey Davison: Hey, clarke! Thanks! Corey, thank you!
	8:52am deborah: @TDK60: You are so right! It is The Blizzard and it is a story. It deserves a listen, at least. You are right about Urge being played on WFMU and WBAI and the late Pete Fornatale's Campus Caravan, later becoming Mixed Bag. I certainly played it frequently on WFMU, along with most of the songs on that album.
	8:53am kpx: @Dale, is Vin Scelsa still on the air anywhere?
	8:54am TDK60: Deborah, what years were you on WFMU? / Gracias Jeffrey!
	8:54am Jeffrey Davison: deborah, Urge for Going has been covered by many people. Written by Joni Mitchell. kpx: I believe Scelsa is retired.
	8:54am Jeffrey Davison: TDK60, thank you!
	8:57am duke: Thanks Jeffrey!
	8:57am StringOFperils: Thanks Jeffrey !
	8:58am Heidee: Jeffrey, thank you for a lovely show. Guys, great talking to you all. See you around!
	8:58am kpx: Thank you Jeffrey and everyone, enjoy is gray cool relaxing day. Bye.
	8:59am deborah: On WFMU 1969 -1972. Scelsa retired.
	9:00am Mayuko: It's really nice to listen to your show live while cleaning the room and making coffee and stuff on Sat morning. So peaceful. Thank you for the beautiful music

	7:55am Jeffrey Davison: By the way, my Instagram handle is shrunkenplanet_wfmu
	7:57am Cooh John: It went great.
	7:59am Heidee: @deborah, yes a lot is expected of you. Still sure you will be teaching from your heart, you just sound like that kind of person.
	8:03am Fredericks: Thanks for the info, Queems.
	8:07am kpx: Good Gray and overcast Saturday planeteers. trust that everyone is doing well. I always find days like this calming and peaceful. Hello Jeffrey D, and Ruth B.
	8:09am Jeffrey Davison: kpx, good morning, and welcome!
	8:09am Ted in Montclair: @Deborah — thanks. Are you referring to Someday Soon, one of my all-time favorites? I love Urge for Going, anything with that high lonesome feeling. Such as Across the Great Divide by Kate Wolf, and West by Lucinda Williams.
	8:10am deborah: @TDK60: Not sure. There are versions on a couple of albums including her new one, Winter Stories, with Jonas Feld collaborating.
	8:10am Fredericks: Hello, Jeffrey and Planet People. This "Same Old Stagolee" is the most I heard of Steve in one of Justin's performances.
	8:12am deborah: @Ted in Montclair Someday Soon is a different song. Love the feeling Tom Rush's music evoked, Urge for Going, No Regrets etc. Never heard West, will look it up. Oh, Justin Townes Earle evokes similar feelings.
	8:12am Fredericks: Jeffrey, quite a while back, you played a great song by Good Luck Mountain, you don't happen to recall which song that was, do you?
	8:15am TDK60: Deborah, I recall when Rush's 'Urge' came out (probably played on WFMU, WBAI, etc.). I think he was the first to popularize a Joni Mitchell tune.
	8:16am Ted in Montclair: @Deborah — I think you’re referring to The Blizzard, from a quick YouTube search. Rest In Peace Justin Townes Earle.
	8:16am StringOFperils: Good morning JD, and all.
	8:16am Jeffrey Davison: Fredericks, in 2020 I played a song called The Perfect Circle. In 2018 I played Heaven in the Haze.
	8:17am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning StringOFperils!
	8:18am melinda: Morning everyone
	8:18am Fredericks: Wonderful! Thanks, Jeffrey.
	8:19am nholliewog: listening from Suffolk Va... thanks for all this great JTE, RIP
	8:20am Jeffrey Davison: Good morning, melinda! You're welcome Fredericks and nholliewog... Yes, RIP Justin.
	8:29am melinda: I didn’t know JTE died. He was young.
	8:32am Strandlund: I love starting my weekends with your program Jeffrey.
	8:32am kpx: All these JTE songs reminds me of a song by EELS called, I like the way this is going. it would fit in perfect with this set.
	8:32am TDK60: So, Ted in Montclair, Deborah we found that that song is "The Blizzard" by J. Collins off her "Fire of Eden" album, 2013. Supposedly an epic tune.
	8:33am Jeffrey Davison: Strandlund, good morning, and thank you for the kind words. kpx...don't know it...thanks.
	8:35am TDK60: Thanks for the J.T. Earle tribute. I hadn't heard of him before this. I do know Steve Earle.
	8:36am Jeffrey Davison: TDK60, he was a great talent, and a great guy, from all reports. melinda, Justin was 38.
	8:37am Sem: ^, same. Knew he was writing and recording, but had heard nothing of his work. Hey, TDK.
	8:38am Jeffrey Davison: Seems appropriate play more Townes Van Zandt, not that I need any encouragement. One of the very greatest. Here's a quote from his NY Times obit, though...“My mother hated Townes Van Zandt,” Mr. Earle told Rolling Stone in 2019, “because of the trouble that Dad and him got into.”
	8:39am Fredericks: You have an amazing memory, Jeffrey.
	8:40am TDK60: Morning Sem.
	8:41am Jeffrey Davison: Fredericks, if you only knew! My memory is awful. I used the WFMU Advanced Playlist Search. Thanks all the same.
	8:46am Sem: Astonishing run of songs here. Only on this Shrunken Planet. Thx +++, Jeffrey.
	8:47am Jeffrey Davison: Sem, thank you. I love the freedom to go in any direction...
	8:47am dale: vin scelsa used to tell some great stories about when he managed townes.
	8:47am 12539: Nice tribute, Jeffrey. Thanks and take care!
	8:48am Hugo (NL): Hi there! very comforting sounds. thanks Jeffrey!
	8:48am Jeffrey Davison: dale, I'll bet! Thanks 12539 and Hugo (NL)!
	8:49am clarke: howdy from new orleans - and good-day too - GREAT show as ALWAYS
	8:50am Corey: Really enjoyed the tribute. Thanks, Jeffrey!
	8:50am Jeffrey Davison: Hey, clarke! Thanks! Corey, thank you!
	8:52am deborah: @TDK60: You are so right! It is The Blizzard and it is a story. It deserves a listen, at least. You are right about Urge being played on WFMU and WBAI and the late Pete Fornatale's Campus Caravan, later becoming Mixed Bag. I certainly played it frequently on WFMU, along with most of the songs on that album.
	8:53am kpx: @Dale, is Vin Scelsa still on the air anywhere?
	8:54am TDK60: Deborah, what years were you on WFMU? / Gracias Jeffrey!
	8:54am Jeffrey Davison: deborah, Urge for Going has been covered by many people. Written by Joni Mitchell. kpx: I believe Scelsa is retired.
	8:54am Jeffrey Davison: TDK60, thank you!
	8:57am duke: Thanks Jeffrey!
	8:57am StringOFperils: Thanks Jeffrey !
	8:58am Heidee: Jeffrey, thank you for a lovely show. Guys, great talking to you all. See you around!
	8:58am kpx: Thank you Jeffrey and everyone, enjoy is gray cool relaxing day. Bye.
	8:59am deborah: On WFMU 1969 -1972. Scelsa retired.
	9:00am Mayuko: It's really nice to listen to your show live while cleaning the room and making coffee and stuff on Sat morning. So peaceful. Thank you for the beautiful music
