WFMU: The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from September 29, 2024

Listener comments!
	🕰 6:03pm WR: Hello DJ Peter and folks.
	🕰 6:04pm Ivan from Woodbridge: Sunday really is Fmu’s strongest day, imo.
	6:06pm DJ Peter: Hey WR! Hey Ivan! I think so too but I'm biased.
	6:36pm tom tom the pipers son: hola peter and peeple
	6:37pm DJ Peter: hola tom! just saw your note, will answer!
	6:37pm Listener Gregory: Good evening, all.
	6:37pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @6:37 ok thanks
	🕰 6:39pm Listener Gregory: The time change throws me every year.
	6:39pm DJ Peter: hey LG! Remind me: is this a tennis related photo?
	6:40pm tom tom the pipers son: i can imagine footage of the nicholas bros dancing to bud powell
	6:41pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:40 i mean if it swung they could dance to it. if it didn't swing they could make it seem like it did! (I'm looking at you, Gene Kelly! And your choreography in The Pirate)
	🕰 6:42pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:39 Yes, it's at the Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport, RI. I suspect that the grass is from the original central court, but they now have a bunch of grass courts, one with stands. That was the richest, lushest grass I have ever seen (before play started, in the spring).
	🕰 6:42pm WR: From Bus Powell Wikipedia severe beating by police in 1945 and years of electroconvulsive therapy treatments adversely impacted his mental health becoming ill with tuberculosis in 1963 mental health crises and a troubled return to New York hastened his early death in 1966 few public performances between the end of 1964 and his death were adversely affected by his alcoholism and ongoing lung proble Okay, now we can focus on listening to the man play.
	6:43pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @6:41 yes that's a good point...swing
	6:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Un Poco Loco" by "Johnny Smith" never heard of these players before but that guitar fingering was doing a nice job on the powell tune
	6:46pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @6:42 thanks WR. Terrible story. Yes, let's focus on the legacy. And swing!
	6:49pm tom tom the pipers son: the titles do nothing to hide powell's troubles
	6:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:49 Hmm. Maybe some were imposed by producers? OTOH the story goes that after running through "Glass Enclosure," the awed listener asked "what was that called?" and reported that Powell looked around the room and then said, "Glass Enclosure" Phew
	6:52pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Blue Pearl" by "Bud Powell" this quite different and almost reminding me of bill evans...a little bit
	6:58pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @6:51 it's disturbing either way, esp the producer angle...when i saw brian wilson almost 20 yrs ago i was a little saddened by what came off as a dancing bear show...although i know nothing about how wilson's tours were produced or by whom, but the commercial instinct is so hideous
	7:00pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:52 well it was less angular anyway...:P
	7:01pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:58 Hideous yes. Did you see the story on 60 Minutes a few years ago about Lady Gaga doing a concert with Tony Bennett? He was enjoying singing, but it took him several songs before he said "hey it's Lady Gaga!" and then afterward he didn't remember the concert. Now is that exploitation? Or did his wife realize: on stage is the only place where he can be the man he wants to be?
	🕰 7:04pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Bouncing with Bud" by "Billy Cobham" Listening while cooking, I didn't know who was playing and was not crazy about the drum solo... or maybe the way the drum set was tuned.
	7:04pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @7:01 right situationally, it's a schizoid teeter totter
	🕰 7:05pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @7:01 By all reports, he just loved singing and performing, so I think little harm was done.
	🕰 7:06pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Bouncing with Bud" by "Billy Cobham" Keith Jarrett's Standards Trio does a great version of this song, for those who celebrate.
	7:10pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:04 fusion drummers sound weird playing swing.
	7:13pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:05 right, but maybe the exploitation goes beyond bennett's liking and has to do with the production in total and people who were benefiting from it that he was no longer able to have awareness of....not saying you're wrong, but there's another side i think
	7:16pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:13 absolutely. i don't know how to feel about it. To say nothing of: even if "healthy," is it unhealthy to be so happy to be on stage and receiving applause? Are you making people happy or basking in adoration? Unanswerable?
	7:16pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:06 I do celebrate. And Jack DeJohnette does not sound weird playing fusion and swing
	7:19pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @7:16 yes the question is, when does it turn into a dancing bear act...
	7:22pm Listener Gregory: @DJP, no he does not!
	7:33pm Little Danny: hello peter, hello all!
	7:34pm Little Danny: ooo this is really cool!
	7:36pm tom tom the pipers son: hi danny....was it you that peeked in on shmelting's (zoe) show early today?
	7:37pm Little Danny: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:36 not me!
	7:38pm Listener Gregory: Thumbscrew is one of my favorite current groups.
	7:38pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Little Danny @7:37 ah, it must have been matty no times.... ....her show was very good
	7:42pm DJ Peter: Hi Danny! After years in Texas, how do you feel about Philly's weather today?
	7:49pm Listener Gregory: “Underrated conceptualist”! Peter, we are simple folk, with simple needs and understanding.
	7:49pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Just By Myself" by "Benny Golson Quartet" tom tom: do you know anything about Alex Bozickovich? (credited with the painting on this cover)
	7:49pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:49 haha I was so pretentious there oops
	7:51pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @7:49 no...and i do not like painting, looks like a prop for 'bucket of blood' which it would bo fine for
	7:52pm DJ Peter: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:51 Yeah it's terrible. But maybe Benny felt he had to underline the sarcasm of calling his record "Free"
	7:55pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Peter @7:52 well, it fits right in to the time period for commercial art
	7:57pm Little Danny: ↳ DJ Peter @7:42 haha oh man i am REALLY ready for some cloud-free days! is it giving u flashbacks to the pnw?
	7:57pm northguineahills: peter! clockers!
	7:57pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Variation on a Theme (of Hindemith)" by "Roland K... this is an interesting 'concept' r.roland kirk and orchestra
	7:58pm DJ Peter: ↳ Little Danny @7:57 yeah, drizzly not really rainy. damp. Hi northguineahills, you made it!
	🕰 7:58pm WR: ↳ Song: "Variation on a Theme (of Hindemith)" by "Roland K... while youse guys are focusing on the cover designs, how about a spelling tweak? PS: I like the line art of the Kirk / Golson.
	7:58pm tom tom the pipers son: hi ngh...
	8:00pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @7:58 noticed it...it is lively, like saul steinberg a bit
	8:00pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @7:58 thanks WR. In my defense, the original LP just says "variation on a theme"
	🕰 8:01pm WR: ↳ DJ Peter @8:00 Yes, noted.
	8:06pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Peter and all
	8:06pm Listener Gregory: Whoa, our host is NOT introduced as the number 1 jazz DJ in Holland!!! Has there been a changing of the guard.
	8:07pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Groupcomposing, March 31, 1976" by "Misha Menglbe... seen this duo before (about 26 years later)
	8:08pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:58 thomas!
	8:09pm DJ Peter: Hey coelacanthø: that's a beautiful paint job on that car, is it actually black or just very very dark blue?

	8:17pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @8:08 got wendy's newsletter email wit a pic from the yacht club....that's some nice scenery...
	8:20pm tom tom the pipers son: bennink doesn't swing ...he crashes
	8:21pm tom tom the pipers son: this pretty great...!
	🕰 8:24pm Jeff Golick: ↳ DJ Peter @8:13 If he had his way, it would.
	8:24pm Listener Gregory: My sister says, “It’s annoying me.” And now adds, “I wish you would turn it off.” So, I think they have achieved their goal.
	8:25pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:24 It can't be all showtunes all the time.
	8:25pm Kat in the chat: I was listening to the Gonerfest broadcast before this. Readjusting!
	8:25pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @8:25 (even Bronwyn ventures out)
	8:26pm DJ Peter: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:25 I mean this probably segues pretty well?
	🕰 8:27pm WR: ↳ Song: "Groupcomposing, April 1, 1976 (Part II)" by "Mish... Hee hee. They really doing all kinds of dancing and playing. Fun.
	8:27pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Groupcomposing, April 1, 1976 (Part II)" by "Mish... sounding a bit like a satie march just there before

	🕰 8:37pm WR: ↳ Song: "Fables of Faubus" by "Jeff Lederer" They sampled Mingus intro blurb? sounded like but I've been fooled before. Liking their playing and ensemble vocal.
	8:38pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @8:37 they sample George Santos and others throughout this album so... why not sample Mingus too?
	8:39pm DJ Peter: It saddens me that we've gone from (the original) "he wants to segregate schools" to "she believes in space lasers"...
	8:40pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Fables of Faubus" by "Jeff Lederer" and the cover is a sample of course www.discogs.com...

The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from September 29, 2024

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.
