	🥁 ♥ 3:22pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Ed F. Sleestak Jr. @3:21 Good afternoon, Ed!
	♥ 3:22pm northguineahills: the national weather service at weather.gov sill uses gis tech from the late 90s, but it's still the most accurate weather forecast maps...
	3:23pm still b/p: ↳ Song: "Nuages" by "Django Reinhardt" Nice, niiiiice. Nuages is the one with bits sounding like Melancholy Serenade, the Gleason theme.

	♥ 3:31pm coelacanth∅: hi Erica!
	🥁 ♥ 3:32pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @3:08 That was actually a bit early for electric Django (he gets such a trebly, "electric" sound, it's easy to confuse sometimes). But he played it at the end of his career a bit (to the dismay of his fans, a bit like the reaction of Dylan's fans who thought he sold out when he went electric).
	🥁 ♥ 3:33pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Amanda" by "Duke Pearson" Cool Track! (you're in my neck of the woods, musically speaking).
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @3:33 Featuring one of my faves, James Spaulding on alto!
	3:36pm CalZone!: Love this track, and the LP, and Duke Pearson! Great producer and arranger too!
	🥁 ♥ 3:40pm Funky16Corners: ↳ CalZone! @3:36 Pearson wasn't a huge Blue Note star, but he's all over the sessions in the 1960s
	🥁 ♥ 3:44pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "ESP (Extrasensory Perception)" by "Duke Pearson" Personnel: Donald Byrd: trumpet; James Spaulding: flute & alto saxophone; Joe Henderson: tenor saxophone; Duke Pearson; piano; Bob Cranshaw: bass; Mikey Roker: drums. Quite a band!
	3:44pm CalZone!: He was often the secret weapon. Produced the Electric Byrd album that I am nuts about. And Hutcherson/Land San Francisco LP.
	🥁 ♥ 3:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @3:44 Indeed! Heavy group!
	🥁 ♥ 3:49pm Brian in UK: Hello Larry & groovers. Extra Special Pyjamas do it for me.
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @3:49 Hey Brian!
	🥁 ♥ 3:52pm Brian in UK: Lost my avatar, Hegerty, yesterday, fell off her perch. Click on my profile & then her photograph & be afraid.
	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm Funky16Corners: RIP Hegerty...
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Two and One" by "Hank Mobley" Another great band- BLUE MITCHELL, trumpet. JACKIE McLEAN, alto sax. HANK MOBLEY, tenor sax. JOHN HICKS, piano. BOB CRANSHAW, bass. BILLY HIGGINS, drums
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Sem: Lovin' this set, LG. May the gods be gentle on Hegarty.
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Erica: Hi Brian. Sorry to hear about your rooster. 🐓
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @3:55 It's consistently amazing the pool of musicians Blue Note had to work with in the 60s. Even the minor players were brilliant
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Sem @3:55 Thanks Sem!
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Sem: ↳ doctorjazz @3:55 Hearing that 5 by 5. Dr. J.
	♥ 3:57pm StringOFperils: Sounding breezy and beautiful, Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 3:57pm Funky16Corners: I actually got to see Bob Cranshaw play once, I think backing Milt Jackson at a free concert at the Monmouth County Library
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @3:57 Thanks String!
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm Brian in UK: ↳ Erica @3:55 Thanks Erica.
	♥ 4:04pm coelacanth∅: 'evening, Brian... sorry about your chook. what happened? just "old"? she looks so...Vibrant!
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm Brian in UK: ↳ Sem @3:55 She was a chicken with attitude!
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm Funky16Corners: Go Elvin!
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:57 Cranshaw was the regular bass player for Sonny Rollins for over 5 decades-got to see him in Rollin's band quite a few times! Sorry for your loss, BiUK!
	🥁 ♥ 4:05pm WR: ↳ Song: "Zoltan" by "Larry Young" based on who has faved / when this track seems to be a low key favorite in WFMU land. I'm a Larry Young fan but only now learning of that Unity album. Drums – Elvin Jones Organ – Larry Young Recorded By [Recording By] – Rudy Van Gelder Tenor Saxophone – Joe Henderson Trumpet – Woody Shaw
	🥁 ♥ 4:05pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @4:05 One of the greatest Blue Note sessions and one of the greatest albums of the 1960s, period
	🥁 ♥ 4:08pm Brian in UK: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:04 Good word vibrant. Ruled the roost but all good things come to an end, sadly. Does make a good photo though.
	🥁 ♥ 4:11pm Brian in UK: Larry, Unity does not give an inch.
	🥁 ♥ 4:12pm Brian in UK: ↳ doctorjazz @4:04 Thanks doc, you are back in the routine now I guess.
	🥁 ♥ 4:12pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:11 I remember picking it for the first time in the 80s and marveling at how it wasn't better known
	♥ 4:12pm coelacanth∅: quite beautiful really, in a chicken kind of way! rest in peace Hegarty.
	🥁 ♥ 4:16pm JB: ↳ Brian in UK @3:52 @Brian RIP Hegerty the Turk. I am afraid, I'll admit.
	🥁 ♥ 4:16pm JB: Hiya Larry
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm Erica: ↳ JB @4:16 Looks more like a rooster than a turkey. But still so sad
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm doctorjazz: ↳ Brian in UK @4:12 Back in the saddle, so to speak (in the office, big switch).
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: ↳ JB @4:16 Hey JB!
	🥁 ♥ 4:22pm Funky16Corners: This one ringing any bells?
	♥ 4:23pm northguineahills: gotta run, Larry, thanks!
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm Funky16Corners: ↳ northguineahills @4:23 Take care, NGH!
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Bring Down the Birds" by "Herbie Hancock" Don't know this Hancock-early for his electric funk stuff, but sounded like it would fit in.
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm JB: WATERMELON!!!!
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:23 The sample source for Dee-Lite's 'Groove Is In the Heart'
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm Funky16Corners: ↳ JB @4:24 The OG!
	♥ 4:26pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "End Title" by "Herbie Hancock" I found the Blowup sndtrk at turtles music right after my hs philosophy teacher showed it in the 11th grade...(then i went and found the complete Mwandishi recordings on warner..)
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm JB: ↳ Erica @4:18 Oh yeah, good point Erica. I like using "the Turk", which means you are now "Erica the Turk".
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Watermelon Man" by "Herbie Hancock" I'm more familiar with Mongo Santamaria's version of this song myself.
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:26 Herbie wrote it but Mongo had the hit
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm Erica: ↳ JB @4:26 What does that mean?
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:26 Mongo also remade the tune in the 70s. I have the fusion remake on a CD.
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm JB: Kind of like "Alexander the Great" and "Pliny the Elder". Oh and not an insult!
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Erica: ↳ JB @4:27 Okay. I kinda get it now.
	🥁 ♥ 4:30pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Watermelon Man" by "Herbie Hancock" Now THIS is familiar!
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Driftin'" by "Herbie Hancock" This track was in repeat mode, over and over when I first heard it, the coolest!
	♥ 4:32pm northguineahills: ↳ doctorjazz @4:30 obscure by dr jazz standards...
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:32 Herbie's 60s albums are solid all the way through
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ northguineahills @4:32 ?
	🥁 ♥ 4:38pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Cantaloupe Island" by "Herbie Hancock" Another killer track!
	🥁 ♥ 4:39pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Cantaloupe Island" by "Herbie Hancock" It's Funky, but the rhythm has a really interesting shift/shuffle to it, with that odd piano riff.
	🥁 ♥ 4:39pm JB: I remember as a kid first hearing Herbie Hancock's music. It was that cool Rockit song/video. I was so surprised to learn that he is such a jazz legend.
	🥁 ♥ 4:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:39 It's got a dark, slinky vibe to it.
	🥁 ♥ 4:40pm Funky16Corners: ↳ JB @4:39 That must have been a shock for a lot of people who first heard him via that album
	♥ 4:41pm Discotech Underground: Hey Larry! Diggin' the Herbie goodness..!
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:41 Hey Kip!
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm Funky16Corners: Stay tuned at 5PM for Kip and Discotech Underground! wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Maiden Voyage" by "Herbie Hancock" All the "hits"!
	♥ 4:43pm Ed F. Sleestak Jr.: I hafta admit that that surreal Rockit video was my entry point into the music of Herbie Hancock. And the song’s herky jerkiness appealed to be as I loved stuff like Byrne & Eno’s My Life In The Bush of Ghosts. I was pleased as punch when I realized that the connecting thread was Bill Laswell.
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm JB: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:40 I can't think of other artists that had such a different song be a gateway to their bread and butter genre.
	♥ 4:46pm Discotech Underground: I sold off most of my jazz collection a while ago but I kept Maiden Voyage!
	🥁 ♥ 4:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:46 Mellow brilliance!
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Maiden Voyage" by "Herbie Hancock" personnel: piano; Freddie Hubbard – trumpet; George Coleman – tenor saxophone; Ron Carter – bass; Tony Williams – drums (Man does Hubbard KILL IT on this!)
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Funky16Corners: Herbie was only 24 at this point!?!
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:46 Hurts me to hear you sold off the jazz, sob...
	🥁 ♥ 4:49pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:48 Young and talented, he was.
	♥ 4:49pm Discotech Underground: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:47 The epitome of mid 1960's Blue Note...
	♥ 4:50pm Discotech Underground: ↳ doctorjazz @4:48 The old story...I needed money...I made digital recordings of all of them, though, so I still have the music. I hadn't listened to them in a really long time.
	🥁 ♥ 4:51pm doctorjazz: Loved the show, thanks Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:51pm JB: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:50 hugs
	♥ 4:52pm Andrew in Toronto: What another great show! Thanks Larry!
	♥ 4:52pm Discotech Underground: Plus the Blow Up soundtrack has the Yardbirds with Beck AND Page!
	4:53pm Vincent The Soul Chef: That Deee-Lite album turned thirty three years old today. Another tremendous session, sir <3
	🥁 ♥ 4:53pm JB: That's funny, I only knew the original of Watermelon Man
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Sem: Wonderful. Clicky-starred the episode. See you next time, Larry.

	🥁 ♥ 4:58pm Funky16Corners: Thanks guys!
	🥁 ♥ 5:00pm JB: Larry I just checked again, Discotech Underground's latest premium is a 60's garage compilation. Now I gotta get me hands on it

	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm Funky16Corners: RIP Hegerty...

	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Erica: Hi Brian. Sorry to hear about your rooster. 🐓
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @3:55 It's consistently amazing the pool of musicians Blue Note had to work with in the 60s. Even the minor players were brilliant
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Sem @3:55 Thanks Sem!
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Sem: ↳ doctorjazz @3:55 Hearing that 5 by 5. Dr. J.

	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:57 Cranshaw was the regular bass player for Sonny Rollins for over 5 decades-got to see him in Rollin's band quite a few times! Sorry for your loss, BiUK!
	🥁 ♥ 4:05pm WR: ↳ Song: "Zoltan" by "Larry Young" based on who has faved / when this track seems to be a low key favorite in WFMU land. I'm a Larry Young fan but only now learning of that Unity album. Drums – Elvin Jones Organ – Larry Young Recorded By [Recording By] – Rudy Van Gelder Tenor Saxophone – Joe Henderson Trumpet – Woody Shaw
	🥁 ♥ 4:05pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @4:05 One of the greatest Blue Note sessions and one of the greatest albums of the 1960s, period
	🥁 ♥ 4:08pm Brian in UK: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:04 Good word vibrant. Ruled the roost but all good things come to an end, sadly. Does make a good photo though.
	🥁 ♥ 4:11pm Brian in UK: Larry, Unity does not give an inch.
	🥁 ♥ 4:12pm Brian in UK: ↳ doctorjazz @4:04 Thanks doc, you are back in the routine now I guess.
	🥁 ♥ 4:12pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:11 I remember picking it for the first time in the 80s and marveling at how it wasn't better known
	♥ 4:12pm coelacanth∅: quite beautiful really, in a chicken kind of way! rest in peace Hegarty.
	🥁 ♥ 4:16pm JB: ↳ Brian in UK @3:52 @Brian RIP Hegerty the Turk. I am afraid, I'll admit.
	🥁 ♥ 4:16pm JB: Hiya Larry
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm Erica: ↳ JB @4:16 Looks more like a rooster than a turkey. But still so sad
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm doctorjazz: ↳ Brian in UK @4:12 Back in the saddle, so to speak (in the office, big switch).
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: ↳ JB @4:16 Hey JB!
	🥁 ♥ 4:22pm Funky16Corners: This one ringing any bells?
	♥ 4:23pm northguineahills: gotta run, Larry, thanks!
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm Funky16Corners: ↳ northguineahills @4:23 Take care, NGH!
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Bring Down the Birds" by "Herbie Hancock" Don't know this Hancock-early for his electric funk stuff, but sounded like it would fit in.
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm JB: WATERMELON!!!!
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:23 The sample source for Dee-Lite's 'Groove Is In the Heart'
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm Funky16Corners: ↳ JB @4:24 The OG!
	♥ 4:26pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "End Title" by "Herbie Hancock" I found the Blowup sndtrk at turtles music right after my hs philosophy teacher showed it in the 11th grade...(then i went and found the complete Mwandishi recordings on warner..)
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm JB: ↳ Erica @4:18 Oh yeah, good point Erica. I like using "the Turk", which means you are now "Erica the Turk".
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Watermelon Man" by "Herbie Hancock" I'm more familiar with Mongo Santamaria's version of this song myself.
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:26 Herbie wrote it but Mongo had the hit
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm Erica: ↳ JB @4:26 What does that mean?
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:26 Mongo also remade the tune in the 70s. I have the fusion remake on a CD.
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm JB: Kind of like "Alexander the Great" and "Pliny the Elder". Oh and not an insult!
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Erica: ↳ JB @4:27 Okay. I kinda get it now.
	🥁 ♥ 4:30pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Watermelon Man" by "Herbie Hancock" Now THIS is familiar!
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Driftin'" by "Herbie Hancock" This track was in repeat mode, over and over when I first heard it, the coolest!
	♥ 4:32pm northguineahills: ↳ doctorjazz @4:30 obscure by dr jazz standards...
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:32 Herbie's 60s albums are solid all the way through
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ northguineahills @4:32 ?
	🥁 ♥ 4:38pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Cantaloupe Island" by "Herbie Hancock" Another killer track!
	🥁 ♥ 4:39pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Cantaloupe Island" by "Herbie Hancock" It's Funky, but the rhythm has a really interesting shift/shuffle to it, with that odd piano riff.
	🥁 ♥ 4:39pm JB: I remember as a kid first hearing Herbie Hancock's music. It was that cool Rockit song/video. I was so surprised to learn that he is such a jazz legend.
	🥁 ♥ 4:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:39 It's got a dark, slinky vibe to it.
	🥁 ♥ 4:40pm Funky16Corners: ↳ JB @4:39 That must have been a shock for a lot of people who first heard him via that album
	♥ 4:41pm Discotech Underground: Hey Larry! Diggin' the Herbie goodness..!
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:41 Hey Kip!
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm Funky16Corners: Stay tuned at 5PM for Kip and Discotech Underground! wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Maiden Voyage" by "Herbie Hancock" All the "hits"!
	♥ 4:43pm Ed F. Sleestak Jr.: I hafta admit that that surreal Rockit video was my entry point into the music of Herbie Hancock. And the song’s herky jerkiness appealed to be as I loved stuff like Byrne & Eno’s My Life In The Bush of Ghosts. I was pleased as punch when I realized that the connecting thread was Bill Laswell.
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm JB: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:40 I can't think of other artists that had such a different song be a gateway to their bread and butter genre.
	♥ 4:46pm Discotech Underground: I sold off most of my jazz collection a while ago but I kept Maiden Voyage!
	🥁 ♥ 4:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:46 Mellow brilliance!
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Maiden Voyage" by "Herbie Hancock" personnel: piano; Freddie Hubbard – trumpet; George Coleman – tenor saxophone; Ron Carter – bass; Tony Williams – drums (Man does Hubbard KILL IT on this!)
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Funky16Corners: Herbie was only 24 at this point!?!
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:46 Hurts me to hear you sold off the jazz, sob...
	🥁 ♥ 4:49pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:48 Young and talented, he was.
	♥ 4:49pm Discotech Underground: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:47 The epitome of mid 1960's Blue Note...
	♥ 4:50pm Discotech Underground: ↳ doctorjazz @4:48 The old story...I needed money...I made digital recordings of all of them, though, so I still have the music. I hadn't listened to them in a really long time.
	🥁 ♥ 4:51pm doctorjazz: Loved the show, thanks Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:51pm JB: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:50 hugs
