WFMU: Observations of Deviance with David Mittleman: Playlist from November 22, 2022

Listener comments!
	7:03pm The Rosners: Hey Dave. Seth here from Pi Recordings. Looking forward to the show.
	7:03pm Observations: We are live!!
	7:04pm Observations: Hi Seth!
	7:07pm The Rosners: Live and cooking. Both in my kitchen and on the stream.
	🥁 7:08pm WR: Shiva's Headband! Someone stole my copy in the 70s. Haven't seen one since.
	7:10pm Dean: Was thinking about this UFO album earlier today, prompted by a discussion in the comments about Krautrock influence (or shared influence) on Yoko Ono's POB album.
	7:12pm Observations: Guru Guru drummer mani neumeier started off as a free jazz drummer in groups like Globe Unity
	7:15pm Dean: Yep. Guru Guru became for him a kind of platform to let him play, but also goof off. There are few like him.
	7:16pm Dean: This album was formative stuff for me.
	7:17pm Observations: Soon the UFOs will land and mankind will meet much stronger brains and habits. Let’s get ready for that. From Guru Guru / UFO jacket
	7:18pm northguineahills: @observations: which six days version is that in your intro, is it dj shadow's? (not colonel bagshot's)
	7:19pm Dean: Chariots of the Gods, published in 1968. Also, the source of an understated prog album, Absolute Elsewhere's In Search of Ancient Gods.
	7:19pm Observations: Yes DJ Shadow instrumental that I hijacked
	7:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hella kewl.
	7:20pm northguineahills: you know, i've never heard irene schweizer w/ guru guru. I need to remedy that...
	7:23pm northguineahills: too bad we never got gang starr w/ guru guru, then we could have guru guru w/ guru....
	7:23pm Dean: Duran Duran Duran Why not Guru Guru Guru?
	7:25pm northguineahills: @Dean: ha! i forgot we covered duran duran duran in comments board before...
	🥁 7:32pm WR: Shiva's Headband were post-LSD tribal earth folkies. I saw them several times in 69 - 71. The LP is OK, but I wish I could come across some live tapes of them.
	7:33pm Observations: wow, you saw them live??? nuts! I would love to hear live tapes too
	7:40pm Yvang: Hi David and observers! Enjoying the great tracks so far!
	7:42pm Observations: Welcome Yvang and all listeners!
	7:44pm Observations: Steve Swallow on recording “Basra” with Pete LaRoca on acid: “Pete and I were acid pioneers within the jazz community, and had dropped acid before going to Rudy Van Gelder’s studio in New Jersey. I remember being transfixed in Rudy’s bathroom. Rudy had blue water in his toilet! He was a germaphobe who wore gloves when he moved microphones, and he was also the first guy I knew who put a package of disinfectant in his toilet tank to turn the water blue. After I had taken acid, the blue water in Rudy’s toilet was the most remarkable thing I had ever seen. jazztimes.com...
	7:44pm zzz: love this pete laroca record
	🥁 7:47pm WR: Yes, liking this Pete La Roca record. Joe Henderson and Steve Kuhn, not to slight La Roca and Swallow. For some reason never came across this one before. Thank you!
	7:50pm zzz: ^ wow @observarions! would not have expected that and now loving it even more! going to have to give this whole thing a new listen thru that lens. article also mentions laroca originally wanted a different tenor for the date z date
	7:50pm Franco Twinkie: More acid stories!
	7:51pm zzz: right?! who else were acid heads in the blue note scene? horace silver in his hippie phase
	🥁 7:55pm WR: Hi Franco!
	8:04pm zzz: YES! so excited for this d byrd release. this version of black byrd is so good
	8:07pm Listener Gregory: Patricia Brennan, taking the vibe world by storm!
	8:07pm zzz: this is a really cool track too, had this clicky starred
	8:09pm zzz: drums/percussion/vibes/bass is a great combo
	8:18pm rf: Wow so happy to hear this Abbey Lincoln track again Thanks!
	🥁 8:19pm WR: Hah, rf, I was just thinking, no matter how often I hear this Abbey Lincoln track, each time it grabs me. Have to stop and listen closely.
	8:19pm Listener Gregory: I don’t recognize this Abby Lincoln version. Nice!
	8:19pm zzz: @franco @7:50, charles lloyd probably on acid on this date playing with the dead in SF in ‘67 … dailydoseofdead.wordpress.com...
	8:22pm Listener Gregory: Except it (Afro Blue) was too short.
	8:23pm Dean: Eddie Harris here, too?
	8:24pm Observations: No Eddie
	8:25pm zzz: leaning more into the early-mid 70s funk thing
	8:26pm Listener Gregory: Just think how popular this song would have been if only he had completed the sentence!
	8:28pm doctorjazz: Was listening around Shiva's Headband, but then had to go to a Shiva (condolence call). Here for the home stretch. (Hi!)
	8:28pm zzz: one of my fav releases is mccann/harris second movement (kind of a sequel to their swiss movement) which gets heavy on the funk, bernard purdue on drums, cornell duprees on guitar etc. but i think generally less loved than the first one
	8:34pm Observations: Correction: I said Los Kenya was from Peru. That was mistaken. They were from VENEZUELA 🇻🇪
	8:35pm Listener Gregory: Hi, @doctorj! You seem to have more than your share of condolence calls. Or maybe you just have a lot more friends than I do (i.e., some).
	8:35pm Observations: Ray Perez was in Los Kenya. Again from VENEZUELA
	8:37pm doctorjazz: @LG...getting older, happens...
	8:48pm Listener Gregory: Coltrane was such an amazing performer and bandleader that I sometimes forget what a great composer he was. If he had only composed his tunes and never played them, I think he would still be considered a major talent.
	8:49pm Listener Gregory: @doctorj, you have my sympathies!
	8:52pm zzz: LG i agree
	8:58pm northguineahills: thanks, david!
	🥁 9:09pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo, long time lurker and occasional poster here. Was gonna do a T-day grocery run late tonight, but I figure in for a penny, in for a pound -- I don't have to work Thursday so may as well leave it for 9=10 PM tomorrow night...
	🥁 9:09pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: And...AMAZING set. With the new lineup I have to remember to tune into GTDR after work all night on Tuesdays....
	9:10pm Observations: Thanks 3moons
	9:11pm Observations: Lurkers, posters and everyone else are always welcome to Observe
	9:22pm Dean: "Observe" is one of those richly ambiguous words. "ob" can mean to turn toward, but also to run against. And when one observes, one is either obeying (ob-eye?) a rule, acting in accordance with it; or one is standing at a distance from it and merely watching.
	9:23pm Listener Gregory: Wow, is this the right speed??
	9:24pm Observations: 33 yessir
	9:24pm Listener Gregory: @Dean, observing is more honored in the breach than the observation, don’t you think?
	9:25pm Listener Gregory: Boy I don’t remember Ornette ever playing this fast.
	🥁 9:26pm WR: Putting on the headphones so I can clearly hear the faint stereo crackle of vintage mono audio vinyl.
	9:26pm Dean: I'm not so sure. I think a lot of folks turn toward stuff not worth observing, but observe it nevertheless.
	9:27pm Doug Schulkind: Hey Threemoons, looks like we'll have a new show joining the stream early in the new year. It will air on Monday late afternoons right before Global Grease. The best way to keep up with programming news on the Drummer Stream is to subscribe to our daily email: tinyletter.com...
	🥁 9:31pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @Doug thank you!!
	9:31pm Observations: Sounds pretty good for a cellphone video
	🥁 9:31pm WR: Liking this "Compared to What" by Zabar and Murray. Thank you!
	9:33pm zzz: very cool “surprise” version observations, sounded like murray just fell into it and they ran with it, what a treat
	9:35pm Listener Gregory: @Dean, sometimes I like to observe the obverse of things, just to be contrary.
	9:36pm Listener Gregory: I don’t think I knew these two played as a duo. Very nice!
	9:55pm doctorjazz: Near the end, late dinner with Observation! Thanks, David!
	9:58pm zzz: thanks @observations,
	🥁 9:58pm WR: Thank you, David. Thank you!
	9:58pm Listener Gregory: Thanks for letting us see the obverse, David!
	9:59pm Yvang: Thanks David!
	9:59pm doctorjazz: David Murray has an ear to rock/pop, did a great album of Dead tines!
	10:00pm Doug Schulkind: Thanks, David. Killer show. As usual.
	10:00pm Observations: Thank you everyone, see you all here next week!
