WFMU: The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from November 19, 2023

Listener comments!
	5:01pm Dean: Image looks like on perspective of my kids' dentists' temporary digs after a fire at their former space.
	5:02pm Dean: "one perspective"
	6:01pm DJ Peter: If you've had nitrous oxide, the corridor looks even longer!
	🕰 7:03pm Jeff Golick: We are not yet clocking the Laughing Clock, correct?
	7:05pm DJ Peter: Not yet! Waiting to hear from Doug. May go to plan B
	🕰 7:05pm Jeff Golick: Ok, here's hoping the automated stream hasn't gone Hal 9000 on us.
	7:06pm adamdoesit: Clock-blocked!
	🕰 7:09pm Jeff Golick: BOOM
	7:10pm DJ Peter: I've gone rogue here!
	7:10pm DJ Peter: Doug reports problems on his end, I'VE TAKEN OVER THE STREAM!!!!
	7:10pm chresti: Hi clockfaces!
	7:12pm Doug Schulkind: Not sure which thing failed. Quite possibly it was human (as in me) error.
	7:13pm DJ Peter: We're rolling now, sorry folks!
	7:15pm adamdoesit: There we are. Hello DJ Peter and clockers worldwide!
	🕰 7:15pm Jeff Golick: All good!
	7:15pm doctorjazz: Leaving a depressing Jets Game (if that's not a redundant description), hi DJ Peter!
	7:16pm DJ Peter: Welcome Doc, Adam Does, Chresti, Jeff to the G, Dean are you still there? And Doug! Guessing the Austin to Marfa issue probably confused HAL 9000.
	7:18pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:15 Doc, hoping Ahmad Jamal will fill the Jets void for you!
	7:22pm adamdoesit: I never really considered Ahmad Jamal until recently. A jazz capital I didn't visit until his death, now a city of endless splendor.
	7:23pm Listener Gregory: Hello to DJ Peter and the Delawarians. @doctorj, I turned the game off a while ago. Yeesh! Oops, they just threw ANOTHER interception!! (Just turned it back on a second ago to see what was happening.) I say let Aaron Rodgers play in a wheelchair.
	7:24pm DJ Peter: Jamal is easy to take for granted, I think? Especially this trio, I don't know if anyone else really took up this model and explored it?
	7:25pm chresti: THAT’S why there was no traffic earlier-football!
	7:26pm Listener Gregory: I got this set and really loved it. I think I HAD taken him for granted for a couple of decades.
	7:27pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:26 Yeah, the first two volumes of this were really great! "Misty" was from the forthcoming third volume!
	7:28pm DJ Peter: (and welcome, Listener Gregory, did I miss that? lots going on here with the late start)
	🕰 7:28pm Jeff Golick: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:23 I generally feel good about having raised kids in NYC, but regret that my son is a Jets fan. I have been slow to warm to Jamal over the years; still getting there. The fault is in me.
	🕰 7:29pm Jeff Golick: ↳ Song: "Depths VI" by "Kevin Sun" Don't know this rhythm section...
	7:30pm chresti: My brother was a BIG raiders fan when they were in Oakland
	7:30pm adamdoesit: ↳ DJ Peter @7:24 I recently saw Tyshawn Sorey's trio. It struck me that his (magnificent) pianist, Aaron Diehl, plays like Ahmad Jamal pursued by furies. So, maybe?
	7:31pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Depths VI" by "Kevin Sun" Don't know Sun, really like Adam O'Farrill!
	7:31pm DJ Peter: This is the third "Canto" track to play today! Jeff, Stork, and I all selected different tracks!
	7:32pm i am curious ‘O’rang: Glad yer streaming…tech glitches be dashed back to hell from whence they came. it’s been quite the “auto-play” Sunday via Drummer & Sheena streams.
	7:33pm chresti: ↳ i am curious ‘O’rang @7:32 Must be all the football
	7:34pm DJ Peter: Kevin Sun put out the really great "<3 Bird" tribute two? years ago? Endectomorph is his label. Bassist Simón Willson has been getting around: Dave Douglas had him on his recent album of haiku and other Japanese poems set to music (translations in English, ofc)
	7:35pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @7:30 Oh that's a good call! Diehl is definitely a student of the piano masters.
	7:36pm DJ Peter: ↳ i am curious ‘O’rang @7:32 We're doin' our best, I am curious 'O'rang! Glad you're here!
	7:36pm Listener Gregory: @adamdoesit, what impressed me about that Emerald Club release is how aggressive Jamal was at times. It would not pass as cocktail piano.
	7:36pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Canto II. Presente: Sueño de Luna Azul" by "Susa... Got to see Alcorn as part of Mary Halvorson's band, not in her own unit, one of these days!
	7:37pm Listener Gregory: Oops, wrong club name in my previous post. Mea culpa!
	7:39pm adamdoesit: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:36 LG, I haven't sat down and listened to it. Sounds like I've got a treat in store. DJ Peter, I've never heard a more complete pianist than Diehl, and he's, what, 38? I look forward to listening to him for many years to come.
	7:40pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @7:29 ... more on the band: Matt Honor goes back with Sun (he was on "<3 Bird"). Saul was also the pianist on "The Sustain of Memory" ("Depths" is a sequel I guess?)
	7:42pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @7:39 Agreed, Diehl can do anything and if he keeps growing... oof!
	7:42pm doctorjazz: Mentioned this earlier (sorry), went to NUPAC twice this past week, Sunday saw Abdullah Ibrahin (was great), and last night Christian McBride and Savion Glover (who were great when they were performing, but it was set up as half interview, and Glover was pretty strange when he was interviewed.
	7:42pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:42 Yeah, you said he was maybe on another plane of consciousness?
	7:43pm i am curious ‘O’rang: Re A.Jamal (also way tardy to his vibe) it really boosted my awareness by seeing him alive & tickling by the early 2000’s. Imo, ‘Jazz in-concert’ experiences can shift one’s perspective towards an artist that underwhelms via some of their catalog recordings. Unfortunately, we are rapidly losing our opportunities to experience these jazz masters of the modern golden era…. sigh 😔
	7:43pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @7:42 Either naturally or through chemicals...
	7:45pm Dean: Just now in, having detoured to my own playlist (Miles, Sandy Denny).
	7:46pm doctorjazz: Gotta head out, catch the rest tomorrow morning, night all!
	🕰 7:47pm Jeff Golick: ↳ i am curious ‘O’rang @7:43 Totally agree with this, re seeing artists live.
	7:47pm Dean: I dig the old Ahmad Jamal stuff I have.
	7:47pm adamdoesit: ↳ Jeff Golick @7:47 Same. The moment is the place where it happens. I'm wandering from the keyboard, while going on digging the sounds. Thanks for being here, DJ Peter!
	7:48pm Dean: Heard Fujii with her better half and another artist at Phil Gelb's flat in Oakland a few years ago. Also heard her with Myra Melford at Maybeck.
	7:48pm Listener Gregory: Peter, you could add “depths six” to your preshow vocal warmup routine.
	7:50pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:48 Depths Six Depths Six. She sells seashells at Depths Six.
	7:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @7:48 Wow! Together at the same keyboard?
	7:52pm Dean: toy boat toy boat toy boat Two keyboards. Recording is here: https://www.discogs.com/release/1858869-Satoko-Fujii-Myra-Melford-Under-The-Water
	7:52pm i am curious ‘O’rang: @Dean, yea I tend to consistently enjoy the older recordings as well. Yet some of the spirited joy & audio on the latter stuff is grand. It occasionally comes with mixed bag mis-firings.
	7:54pm DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @7:52 Cool! If memory serves, Fujii's first record was a two piano date with Paul Bley... also with Water in the title?
	7:56pm Listener Gregory: Damn you, stream!
	7:57pm Listener Gregory: Or is this still Trio San?? I’m getting Afrobeat.
	8:00pm Dean: You are correct, DJ Peter. That's where I first heard of her.
	8:00pm DJ Peter: Playlist slow to update. "Hu Vibrational" is a bit Afrobeat-y, isn't it/they.
	8:02pm Doug Schulkind: Not seeing any playlist problems mentioned on any of the other programs. Might've just been a hiccup. I did notice a brief problem when I was doing my playlist prep on Thursday night.
	8:03pm Listener Gregory: I think I may have gotten the stream for a minute. I blame @doctorj for bailing out on us.
	8:03pm coelacanth∅: good evening Peter and all
	8:04pm tom tom the pipers son: hello dj peter and people, image at top reminds me of a 60's experimental film, i think by ernie gehr
	8:04pm DJ Peter: coelacanthø! Now we can really get started.
	8:05pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DJ Peter @8:04 leave it to me to hold up progress
	8:06pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:04 Hey Tom Tom! "Serene Velocity" I think you mean! Really great film although I don't know if i need to see it a second time!
	8:06pm tom tom the pipers son: ernie gehr www.youtube.com...
	🕰 8:08pm WR: Hi, connected. missed an hour. Note, Jeff & Stork both played a track from the Alcorn Septeto del Sur. I liked what I heard, guess you guys do too.
	8:09pm DJ Peter: Hi WR! Yes, I guess we're angling to get it on the FMU most played list.
	8:10pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @8:08 anna weber also played on stork, but as leader
	8:10pm DJ Peter: We might run a few minutes long tonight...
	8:11pm Listener Gregory: This Adam Hopkins is v nice. IMHO
	🕰 8:12pm WR: ↳ DJ Peter @8:10 as long as the ice cream guys don't go primal on you, that should be ok.
	8:14pm tom tom the pipers son: as a child one time watched kids feed a cricket to a praying mantis and watch it tear the cricket apart and eat it, but the experience was more educational than sadistic
	🕰 8:16pm WR: the playlist pic is probably a school hallway but I've been helping a friend look at apartments today and it make me feel like I am still wandering down a hallway looking for apt 4H.
	8:16pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:14 !!! The cricket on the album cover looks sad to not be at the party. But now he feels lucky.
	8:17pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @8:16 fewer praying mantis' around
	8:18pm Little Danny: loving this, hi peter!
	8:18pm Little Danny: also that trio san... wow
	8:19pm DJ Peter: Hey Danny! Yeah, vibes are the vibe tonight!
	8:19pm Little Danny: :)
	8:19pm Listener Gregory: I am starting to realize that there are many good musicians out there, and I may not have even heard of all of them. Disturbing, if true.
	🕰 8:21pm WR: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:10 I didn't know there is a track the performing artists subroutine to the data algorithm. My attempts at random humor must mean that there is something I should be doing right now.
	8:22pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @8:21 You're already doing it, WR! Beep boop beep. Boop boop. Anna Webber. Boop boop beep.
	🕰 8:24pm WR: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:19 Yes, agreed LG. and that realization is coming just in time to make me give up acquiring and just rely on 'FMU archives. Good thing, too, before bandcamp and discogs get a place at the table when I reach financial dissolution.
	8:24pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @8:21 ha! i guess there is, in actuality, i think you can see if another dj played a track on the fmu website, ngh does it all the time
	🕰 8:26pm WR: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:24 one lazy way is look at which programs a particular track was favorited on.
	🕰 8:27pm WR: But it appears that Jeff, Stork & Peter each played a different Alcorn track from that release.
	8:28pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @8:26 oh, i don't know how to do that, but not really interested anyway
	🕰 8:35pm Listener Gregory: ↳ WR @8:24 Let’s just hope they don’t sell off your record collection at the bankruptcy hearing.
	8:37pm Little Danny: wonderful
	8:45pm DJ Peter: ↳ Little Danny @8:37 The Melnicove? Yeah, gotta give that another listen. Flagged that track a few months ago, long enough that I need to revisit the album as a whole.
	8:45pm Listener Gregory: Spoken word is my least favorite kind of word, but I try to keep an open mind.
	8:46pm Dean: I've been worried for a few days about my having been banished from Little Danny's comments board for my opinions about machismo. I don't get it. I'm a big fan of LD. I don't want to be persona non grata. This weekend, I wrote a poem, "Al Dente," about machismo and its various expressions, which are human expressions.
	8:47pm Little Danny: ↳ DJ Peter @8:45 yep! billy hart sounding great there too
	8:48pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Your Soul" by "Mike Reed" diggiting this
	🕰 8:49pm WR: ↳ Dean @8:46 you can be banished even if you don't log in (asking for a friend).
	🕰 8:49pm WR: ↳ WR @8:49 that was supposed to be a question....?
	8:50pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @8:49 i think so! but let's not find out!
	8:53pm chresti: ↳ WR @8:49 My friend says yes
	8:54pm DJ Peter: ↳ Little Danny @8:47 Yeah and the hook-up with Ben Street!
	8:55pm Listener Gregory: That BooBoo’s Birthday was fun. A Monk piece that isn’t overplayed.
	8:57pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:55 like some of the others on underground, green chimneys, ugly beauty
	8:57pm Little Danny: top notch selectory tonight peter, thanks!
	8:58pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:57 Yeah, but "raise four" and "green chimneys" aren't Monk at his best. "Ugly Beauty" and "Boo Boo" are his last great compositions, IMO.
	8:58pm tom tom the pipers son: little danny, implore you, make up w/ dean as long as he puts machismo behind you two
	8:59pm DJ Peter: This track is going to take us over the top of the hour but Solo Mon has assured me he won't go primal!
	8:59pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @8:58 you're probably right, but i used to really like green chimneys
	9:00pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:59 Catchy as hell, for sure! And maybe his only modal composition?
	9:00pm Listener Gregory: I was once persona au gratin, and that was no picnic, believe me.
	9:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @9:00 right the modality is what i responded to
	🕰 9:01pm Listener Gregory: Great show, Peter. Many thanks!
	9:02pm chresti: Thanks Peter!
	9:02pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks, peter... see you next sunday at some point in the day!
	9:03pm DJ Peter: Thanks everybody! Dean, you are welcome here! Not going to get in the middle of it except to say I love both of you guys.
	🕰 9:03pm WR: Thank you! Peter!
	9:04pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:00 Thanksgiving is coming! Much gratination to be had!
	🕰 9:04pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @9:04 Apologies for my cheesy comment.
	9:05pm Dean: Yeah, I don't care about the technical business of banishment. Ken has pulled the plug on me on occasion, but I'm referring to an ideological disagreement that frankly baffles me. For some reason it is not at all okay to imagine that concepts/behaviors like machismo are not entirely off limits. I strongly suspect that Danny's take and mine are incommensurable, and so there's no space for reconciliation.
	9:06pm chresti: Is modal the sames as the “0riental” scale (as my teacher in oriental music class would say)?
	9:08pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Peter!
	9:08pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @9:06 i don't really know, but modal is like 'kind of blue' with repeated sections not typical abab format
	9:08pm DJ Peter: ↳ chresti @9:06 You may be thinking of "pentatonic" scale. Modal just means: improvising on a scale instead of chord changes (in the jazz sense)
	9:09pm DJ Peter: Pentatonic is specifically: a scale of five notes
	9:10pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @9:08 thanks peter, i know it when i hear it, but can't explain
	10:22am doctorjazz: Just finished my Monday morning catch-up listen, dug the show! Thanks, Peter!

The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from November 19, 2023

View DJ Peter's profile

Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

	7:35pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @7:30 Oh that's a good call! Diehl is definitely a student of the piano masters.
	7:36pm DJ Peter: ↳ i am curious ‘O’rang @7:32 We're doin' our best, I am curious 'O'rang! Glad you're here!
	7:36pm Listener Gregory: @adamdoesit, what impressed me about that Emerald Club release is how aggressive Jamal was at times. It would not pass as cocktail piano.
	7:36pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Canto II. Presente: Sueño de Luna Azul" by "Susa... Got to see Alcorn as part of Mary Halvorson's band, not in her own unit, one of these days!
	7:37pm Listener Gregory: Oops, wrong club name in my previous post. Mea culpa!
	7:39pm adamdoesit: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:36 LG, I haven't sat down and listened to it. Sounds like I've got a treat in store. DJ Peter, I've never heard a more complete pianist than Diehl, and he's, what, 38? I look forward to listening to him for many years to come.
	7:40pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @7:29 ... more on the band: Matt Honor goes back with Sun (he was on "<3 Bird"). Saul was also the pianist on "The Sustain of Memory" ("Depths" is a sequel I guess?)
	7:42pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @7:39 Agreed, Diehl can do anything and if he keeps growing... oof!
	7:42pm doctorjazz: Mentioned this earlier (sorry), went to NUPAC twice this past week, Sunday saw Abdullah Ibrahin (was great), and last night Christian McBride and Savion Glover (who were great when they were performing, but it was set up as half interview, and Glover was pretty strange when he was interviewed.
	7:42pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:42 Yeah, you said he was maybe on another plane of consciousness?
	7:43pm i am curious ‘O’rang: Re A.Jamal (also way tardy to his vibe) it really boosted my awareness by seeing him alive & tickling by the early 2000’s. Imo, ‘Jazz in-concert’ experiences can shift one’s perspective towards an artist that underwhelms via some of their catalog recordings. Unfortunately, we are rapidly losing our opportunities to experience these jazz masters of the modern golden era…. sigh 😔
	7:43pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @7:42 Either naturally or through chemicals...
	7:45pm Dean: Just now in, having detoured to my own playlist (Miles, Sandy Denny).
	7:46pm doctorjazz: Gotta head out, catch the rest tomorrow morning, night all!
	🕰 7:47pm Jeff Golick: ↳ i am curious ‘O’rang @7:43 Totally agree with this, re seeing artists live.
	7:47pm Dean: I dig the old Ahmad Jamal stuff I have.
	7:47pm adamdoesit: ↳ Jeff Golick @7:47 Same. The moment is the place where it happens. I'm wandering from the keyboard, while going on digging the sounds. Thanks for being here, DJ Peter!
	7:48pm Dean: Heard Fujii with her better half and another artist at Phil Gelb's flat in Oakland a few years ago. Also heard her with Myra Melford at Maybeck.
	7:48pm Listener Gregory: Peter, you could add “depths six” to your preshow vocal warmup routine.
	7:50pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:48 Depths Six Depths Six. She sells seashells at Depths Six.
	7:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @7:48 Wow! Together at the same keyboard?
	7:52pm Dean: toy boat toy boat toy boat Two keyboards. Recording is here: https://www.discogs.com/release/1858869-Satoko-Fujii-Myra-Melford-Under-The-Water
	7:52pm i am curious ‘O’rang: @Dean, yea I tend to consistently enjoy the older recordings as well. Yet some of the spirited joy & audio on the latter stuff is grand. It occasionally comes with mixed bag mis-firings.
	7:54pm DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @7:52 Cool! If memory serves, Fujii's first record was a two piano date with Paul Bley... also with Water in the title?
	7:56pm Listener Gregory: Damn you, stream!
	7:57pm Listener Gregory: Or is this still Trio San?? I’m getting Afrobeat.
	8:00pm Dean: You are correct, DJ Peter. That's where I first heard of her.
	8:00pm DJ Peter: Playlist slow to update. "Hu Vibrational" is a bit Afrobeat-y, isn't it/they.
	8:02pm Doug Schulkind: Not seeing any playlist problems mentioned on any of the other programs. Might've just been a hiccup. I did notice a brief problem when I was doing my playlist prep on Thursday night.
	8:03pm Listener Gregory: I think I may have gotten the stream for a minute. I blame @doctorj for bailing out on us.
	8:03pm coelacanth∅: good evening Peter and all
	8:04pm tom tom the pipers son: hello dj peter and people, image at top reminds me of a 60's experimental film, i think by ernie gehr
	8:04pm DJ Peter: coelacanthø! Now we can really get started.
	8:05pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DJ Peter @8:04 leave it to me to hold up progress
	8:06pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:04 Hey Tom Tom! "Serene Velocity" I think you mean! Really great film although I don't know if i need to see it a second time!
	8:06pm tom tom the pipers son: ernie gehr www.youtube.com...
	🕰 8:08pm WR: Hi, connected. missed an hour. Note, Jeff & Stork both played a track from the Alcorn Septeto del Sur. I liked what I heard, guess you guys do too.
	8:09pm DJ Peter: Hi WR! Yes, I guess we're angling to get it on the FMU most played list.
	8:10pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @8:08 anna weber also played on stork, but as leader
	8:10pm DJ Peter: We might run a few minutes long tonight...
	8:11pm Listener Gregory: This Adam Hopkins is v nice. IMHO
	🕰 8:12pm WR: ↳ DJ Peter @8:10 as long as the ice cream guys don't go primal on you, that should be ok.
	8:14pm tom tom the pipers son: as a child one time watched kids feed a cricket to a praying mantis and watch it tear the cricket apart and eat it, but the experience was more educational than sadistic
	🕰 8:16pm WR: the playlist pic is probably a school hallway but I've been helping a friend look at apartments today and it make me feel like I am still wandering down a hallway looking for apt 4H.
	8:16pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:14 !!! The cricket on the album cover looks sad to not be at the party. But now he feels lucky.
	8:17pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @8:16 fewer praying mantis' around
	8:18pm Little Danny: loving this, hi peter!
	8:18pm Little Danny: also that trio san... wow
	8:19pm DJ Peter: Hey Danny! Yeah, vibes are the vibe tonight!
	8:19pm Little Danny: :)
	8:19pm Listener Gregory: I am starting to realize that there are many good musicians out there, and I may not have even heard of all of them. Disturbing, if true.
	🕰 8:21pm WR: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:10 I didn't know there is a track the performing artists subroutine to the data algorithm. My attempts at random humor must mean that there is something I should be doing right now.
	8:22pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @8:21 You're already doing it, WR! Beep boop beep. Boop boop. Anna Webber. Boop boop beep.
	🕰 8:24pm WR: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:19 Yes, agreed LG. and that realization is coming just in time to make me give up acquiring and just rely on 'FMU archives. Good thing, too, before bandcamp and discogs get a place at the table when I reach financial dissolution.
	8:24pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @8:21 ha! i guess there is, in actuality, i think you can see if another dj played a track on the fmu website, ngh does it all the time
	🕰 8:26pm WR: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:24 one lazy way is look at which programs a particular track was favorited on.
	🕰 8:27pm WR: But it appears that Jeff, Stork & Peter each played a different Alcorn track from that release.
	8:28pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @8:26 oh, i don't know how to do that, but not really interested anyway
	🕰 8:35pm Listener Gregory: ↳ WR @8:24 Let’s just hope they don’t sell off your record collection at the bankruptcy hearing.
	8:37pm Little Danny: wonderful
	8:45pm DJ Peter: ↳ Little Danny @8:37 The Melnicove? Yeah, gotta give that another listen. Flagged that track a few months ago, long enough that I need to revisit the album as a whole.
	8:45pm Listener Gregory: Spoken word is my least favorite kind of word, but I try to keep an open mind.
	8:46pm Dean: I've been worried for a few days about my having been banished from Little Danny's comments board for my opinions about machismo. I don't get it. I'm a big fan of LD. I don't want to be persona non grata. This weekend, I wrote a poem, "Al Dente," about machismo and its various expressions, which are human expressions.
	8:47pm Little Danny: ↳ DJ Peter @8:45 yep! billy hart sounding great there too
	8:48pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Your Soul" by "Mike Reed" diggiting this
	🕰 8:49pm WR: ↳ Dean @8:46 you can be banished even if you don't log in (asking for a friend).
	🕰 8:49pm WR: ↳ WR @8:49 that was supposed to be a question....?
	8:50pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @8:49 i think so! but let's not find out!
	8:53pm chresti: ↳ WR @8:49 My friend says yes
	8:54pm DJ Peter: ↳ Little Danny @8:47 Yeah and the hook-up with Ben Street!
	8:55pm Listener Gregory: That BooBoo’s Birthday was fun. A Monk piece that isn’t overplayed.
	8:57pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:55 like some of the others on underground, green chimneys, ugly beauty
	8:57pm Little Danny: top notch selectory tonight peter, thanks!
	8:58pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:57 Yeah, but "raise four" and "green chimneys" aren't Monk at his best. "Ugly Beauty" and "Boo Boo" are his last great compositions, IMO.
	8:58pm tom tom the pipers son: little danny, implore you, make up w/ dean as long as he puts machismo behind you two
	8:59pm DJ Peter: This track is going to take us over the top of the hour but Solo Mon has assured me he won't go primal!
	8:59pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @8:58 you're probably right, but i used to really like green chimneys
	9:00pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:59 Catchy as hell, for sure! And maybe his only modal composition?
	9:00pm Listener Gregory: I was once persona au gratin, and that was no picnic, believe me.
	9:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @9:00 right the modality is what i responded to
	🕰 9:01pm Listener Gregory: Great show, Peter. Many thanks!
	9:02pm chresti: Thanks Peter!
	9:02pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks, peter... see you next sunday at some point in the day!
	9:03pm DJ Peter: Thanks everybody! Dean, you are welcome here! Not going to get in the middle of it except to say I love both of you guys.
	🕰 9:03pm WR: Thank you! Peter!
	9:04pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:00 Thanksgiving is coming! Much gratination to be had!
	🕰 9:04pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @9:04 Apologies for my cheesy comment.
	9:05pm Dean: Yeah, I don't care about the technical business of banishment. Ken has pulled the plug on me on occasion, but I'm referring to an ideological disagreement that frankly baffles me. For some reason it is not at all okay to imagine that concepts/behaviors like machismo are not entirely off limits. I strongly suspect that Danny's take and mine are incommensurable, and so there's no space for reconciliation.
	9:06pm chresti: Is modal the sames as the “0riental” scale (as my teacher in oriental music class would say)?
	9:08pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Peter!
	9:08pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @9:06 i don't really know, but modal is like 'kind of blue' with repeated sections not typical abab format
	9:08pm DJ Peter: ↳ chresti @9:06 You may be thinking of "pentatonic" scale. Modal just means: improvising on a scale instead of chord changes (in the jazz sense)
	9:09pm DJ Peter: Pentatonic is specifically: a scale of five notes
	9:10pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @9:08 thanks peter, i know it when i hear it, but can't explain
	10:22am doctorjazz: Just finished my Monday morning catch-up listen, dug the show! Thanks, Peter!
