	🥁 ♥ 3:10pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Effi" by "Bobby Hutcherson" James Spaulding on flute and sax on the Patterns tracks
	🥁 ♥ 3:11pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:05 There's a Mosaic Bobby Hutcherson/Blue Note box released not too long ago (still in print I believe), that I spent a lot of time listeinig to, great stuff!
	🥁 ♥ 3:11pm doctorjazz: ↳ Mollywog @3:05 ;-)
	🥁 ♥ 3:12pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @3:11 If it's the one with the slightly later albums where he's playing a lot of xylophone I think I have that one
	🥁 ♥ 3:17pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Ankara" by "Bobby Hutcherson" This and the next track written by Joe Chambers, the drummer on the session
	🥁 3:17pm Cal Zone!: Didn't realize you were a fellow afficionado of The Hutch! Great minds....
	🥁 ♥ 3:18pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Cal Zone! @3:17 Hey Cal! Oh yeah, I got to see him in NYC maybe 20-22 years ago
	🥁 3:19pm Cal Zone!: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:18 Alas, I did not. I heard he a really swell guy with a great sense of humor.
	🥁 ♥ 3:20pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Cal Zone! @3:19 I got to chat with him briefly between sets, he was very cool
	🥁 ♥ 3:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:12 1963-1970; I just checked their website, it's sold out.
	🥁 ♥ 3:22pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Cal Zone! @3:19 It was at 27 Jazz on a double bill with David Fathead Newman, who my mother-in-law (who we were taking out to dinner) addressed as "Mr Fathead".
	🥁 ♥ 3:23pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @3:22 That's def not the one I have. I ought to see if I can find a used copy

	🥁 ♥ 3:29pm David The Splatter: Afternoon, Larry. Made it in, been a busy work day.
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David The Splatter @3:29 Hey David!
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm listener 126464: Good afternoon Larry, everyone!
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Funky16Corners: ↳ listener 126464 @3:35 Howdy listener126464!
	🥁 ♥ 3:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Dizzy Atmosphere" by "Dizzy Gillespie Sextet" This is such a KILLER session!
	🥁 ♥ 3:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @3:37 Yeah, based on the changes of 'I Got Rhythm' but the opening reminds me of something else, too and I can't quite put my finger on it
	🥁 ♥ 3:38pm Mollywog: ↳ doctorjazz @3:37 Sure is, I dig it sideways!
	🥁 ♥ 3:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Dizzy Atmosphere" by "Dizzy Gillespie Sextet" Slam Stewart on bass (I think)
	🥁 ♥ 3:46pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:39 Internet credits both Ray Brown and Slam Stewart on this session, but likely was Slam!
	🥁 ♥ 3:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @3:46 Yeah, I don't think I've ever heard Ray Brown doing that bowing/humming thing
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:48 Nope, that's Slam's Signature! (Just love all these early bebop dates, they're exploding!)
	🥁 ♥ 3:51pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @3:50 No kidding, and wild that these are, give or take, three minute records!
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Ah-Leu-Cha" by "The Charlie Parker All Stars" Later covered by the Miles Davis Quintet
	🥁 ♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Steeplechase" by "The Charlie Parker All Stars" This tune later recorded as a famous sax "duel" by Wardell Gray and Dexter Gordon
	♥ 4:03pm Charles in Chicago: Nice to hear all these tunes I learned when I was studying jazz
	🥁 ♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:03 Hi Charles!
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Relaxin' At Camarillo" by "Charlie Parker's New S... Later referenced by Steely Dan
	♥ 4:05pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:58 There's a (great) band called the Ahleuchatistas who took their name from this tune. Check 'em out if you haven't heard them - the great Shane Parish on guitar
	🥁 ♥ 4:05pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:05 I haven't! I'll look them up.
	♥ 4:08pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:05 Started as a trio, then down to a duo last time I saw 'em
	🥁 ♥ 4:09pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:08 Which instruments?
	♥ 4:10pm Charles in Chicago: Shane Parish's recent record "Repertoire" is also highly recommended, he plays Mingus, Alice Coltrane and Minutemen classics on solo acoustic guitar. A highly underrated player, according to me.
	♥ 4:10pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:09 Started with gtr/bass/drums, then dropped the bass
	🥁 ♥ 4:11pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:10 Sounds interesting!
	♥ 4:11pm Charles in Chicago: These old 78RPM records sound great, not scratchy at all!!! My turntable won't do 78, sadly.
	🥁 ♥ 4:12pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:11 These are from CD, I just list them as originally issued. If I had all these 78s I'd have to hire an armed guard!
	🥁 ♥ 4:13pm doctorjazz: Don't have a 78 capable turntable (have just a handful of 78s because I'm OCD). (Have to catch up on my clicky-starring, every single tune!)
	♥ 4:14pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ doctorjazz @4:13 just star the show :-)
	♥ 4:14pm Charles in Chicago: Up at the top, just left of the date
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @4:13 (I do have pretty all of Bird's music on LP and CD...)
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:13 I have some 78s, but generally don't pick them up unless they're something very special to me, like Slim Gaillard, Wardell Gray or others
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:14 Though I should say I bought a very special 78RPM this week. Back in 1968 Reprise issued a 78 os two tunes from Randy Newman's first album. Very rare and a copy popped up for sale.
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:17 A 78 in 68? That's CRAZY (and hard to say 5 times fast)!
	♥ 4:23pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ doctorjazz @4:20 they still release 78s see eg rivermontrecords.com... and some indie-rock band released an edison cylinder not too long ago, IIRC
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm doctorjazz: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:23 Even Crazier!
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm doctorjazz: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:23 Checked the site-mp3 and 78 release, no LP/45. How many folks can PLAY that?
	♥ 4:27pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:10 In Walked Bud! (And then they got into something)
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:23 I have a 78 of Ian McCulloch from Echo and the Bunnymen performing September Song
	♥ 4:27pm Charles in Chicago: On the guitar topic I also have to mention Miles Okazaki's "Work" where he plays the complete works of Monk on solo guitar www.milesokazaki.com... But I'll try not to make too many recommendations :-)
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:27 Just listen to those fingers fly over the keys!
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:27 I've heard about that! I'd love to get my hands on it
	♥ 4:31pm Discotech Underground: What's up, Larry! Hey, Testify people!
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:31 Hey Kip!
	♥ 4:32pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:28 okazakiwork.bandcamp.com... I have the 6-CD set but you can buy it as a download too. It's really incredible... great playing & arranging, not just a stunt
	♥ 4:33pm Charles in Chicago: Man, Bud Powell is so great. I was supposed to go to the store but I'm having trouble leaving :-)
	🥁 ♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: Make sure to stay tuned for Kip and Discotech Underground at 5PM ET wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 4:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:33 Play it on your phone as you're on the move!
	🥁 ♥ 4:35pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Bud's Bubble" by "Bud Powell" Powell's version of the tune Parker recorded as Crazeology
	🥁 ♥ 4:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Off Minor" by "Bud Powell" Powell had the habit - like Monk - of making a lot of noise while he played
	♥ 4:43pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:34 I'm old-school I only like to listen to music on my JBL-L110's :-)
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:43 I dig.
	♥ 4:44pm Charles in Chicago: I'll just wait and go to the store tonight, the traffic will be a mess right now anyhow :-)
	🥁 ♥ 4:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:44 Good plan!
	🥁 ♥ 4:56pm Crafty: Thank you!❤
	🥁 ♥ 4:56pm bradford: Thanks as always, Larry.
	🥁 ♥ 4:56pm JB: Thanks Larry, great show, enjoyed it!
	🥁 ♥ 4:56pm WTF_Chuck: Thanks Larry!! Brought me back to another time.
	🥁 ♥ 4:56pm WR: Thank you! Larry!
	♥ 4:56pm Charles in Chicago: That was a lot of fun, thanks!
	🥁 ♥ 4:57pm Yvang: Thank you Larry! Such a wonderful music!
	🥁 ♥ 4:57pm Funky16Corners: Thanks for listening everyone!
	🥁 ♥ 4:57pm doctorjazz: Thanks Larry, Killer show!
	♥ 5:05pm Andrew in Toronto: What an excellwnt show! Thanks, larry!
	🥁 8:58am Cal Zone!: Fantastic Show Larry! Always love when you bring out the Jazz! Thanks for sharing the music with us!

	♥ 4:05pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:58 There's a (great) band called the Ahleuchatistas who took their name from this tune. Check 'em out if you haven't heard them - the great Shane Parish on guitar
	🥁 ♥ 4:05pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:05 I haven't! I'll look them up.
	♥ 4:08pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:05 Started as a trio, then down to a duo last time I saw 'em
	🥁 ♥ 4:09pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:08 Which instruments?
	♥ 4:10pm Charles in Chicago: Shane Parish's recent record "Repertoire" is also highly recommended, he plays Mingus, Alice Coltrane and Minutemen classics on solo acoustic guitar. A highly underrated player, according to me.
	♥ 4:10pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:09 Started with gtr/bass/drums, then dropped the bass
	🥁 ♥ 4:11pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:10 Sounds interesting!
	♥ 4:11pm Charles in Chicago: These old 78RPM records sound great, not scratchy at all!!! My turntable won't do 78, sadly.
	🥁 ♥ 4:12pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:11 These are from CD, I just list them as originally issued. If I had all these 78s I'd have to hire an armed guard!
	🥁 ♥ 4:13pm doctorjazz: Don't have a 78 capable turntable (have just a handful of 78s because I'm OCD). (Have to catch up on my clicky-starring, every single tune!)
	♥ 4:14pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ doctorjazz @4:13 just star the show :-)
	♥ 4:14pm Charles in Chicago: Up at the top, just left of the date
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @4:13 (I do have pretty all of Bird's music on LP and CD...)
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:13 I have some 78s, but generally don't pick them up unless they're something very special to me, like Slim Gaillard, Wardell Gray or others
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:14 Though I should say I bought a very special 78RPM this week. Back in 1968 Reprise issued a 78 os two tunes from Randy Newman's first album. Very rare and a copy popped up for sale.
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:17 A 78 in 68? That's CRAZY (and hard to say 5 times fast)!
	♥ 4:23pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ doctorjazz @4:20 they still release 78s see eg rivermontrecords.com... and some indie-rock band released an edison cylinder not too long ago, IIRC
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm doctorjazz: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:23 Even Crazier!
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm doctorjazz: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:23 Checked the site-mp3 and 78 release, no LP/45. How many folks can PLAY that?
	♥ 4:27pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:10 In Walked Bud! (And then they got into something)
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:23 I have a 78 of Ian McCulloch from Echo and the Bunnymen performing September Song
	♥ 4:27pm Charles in Chicago: On the guitar topic I also have to mention Miles Okazaki's "Work" where he plays the complete works of Monk on solo guitar www.milesokazaki.com... But I'll try not to make too many recommendations :-)
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:27 Just listen to those fingers fly over the keys!
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:27 I've heard about that! I'd love to get my hands on it
	♥ 4:31pm Discotech Underground: What's up, Larry! Hey, Testify people!
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:31 Hey Kip!
	♥ 4:32pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:28 okazakiwork.bandcamp.com... I have the 6-CD set but you can buy it as a download too. It's really incredible... great playing & arranging, not just a stunt
	♥ 4:33pm Charles in Chicago: Man, Bud Powell is so great. I was supposed to go to the store but I'm having trouble leaving :-)
	🥁 ♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: Make sure to stay tuned for Kip and Discotech Underground at 5PM ET wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 4:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:33 Play it on your phone as you're on the move!
	🥁 ♥ 4:35pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Bud's Bubble" by "Bud Powell" Powell's version of the tune Parker recorded as Crazeology
	🥁 ♥ 4:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Off Minor" by "Bud Powell" Powell had the habit - like Monk - of making a lot of noise while he played
	♥ 4:43pm Charles in Chicago: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:34 I'm old-school I only like to listen to music on my JBL-L110's :-)
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:43 I dig.
	♥ 4:44pm Charles in Chicago: I'll just wait and go to the store tonight, the traffic will be a mess right now anyhow :-)
	🥁 ♥ 4:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Charles in Chicago @4:44 Good plan!
