🥁

I'm gonna need 20 D-cell batteries for that radio.
Morning and happy Friday, Doug and all!

9:06am MrC:

You get choice, not chance, when you make it to a Drummer Some dance...

🥁

9:07am duke:

Morning Drumsters

9:08am Webhamster Henry:

You can follow this with Bessie Smith's "Aggravatin' Poppa"

9:08am Doug Schulkind:

A 20-watt hello to you, Listener James! And, hey!, MrC is here. Hippe-ty-o, MrC!

We're having a drumster fire, duke. Hope you brought the marshmallows!

9:10am Doug Schulkind:

And then I can follow that with "Aggrivatin' Propaganda" by... Lydia Lunch?

9:11am Gary:

This song's a bit judgmental, mm?

🥁

9:13am listener james from westwood:

@Gary: The flip side was a Crowleyan hymn titled "Boogie As Thou Wilt."

9:19am Flash Strap:

Mornin', blueberries

🥁

9:21am Brian in UK:

Hello Doug and trombonists everywhere.
Do I spot some dodgy product placement.

9:21am Doug Schulkind:

Heya, Flashy!

9:23am Doug Schulkind:

As Freud said, sometimes a Pepsi® cup is just a cigar, Brian in UK.

🥁

9:28am Brian in UK:

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet, not if were called intesinal ringworm.

9:30am Doug Schulkind:

Too much information, Brian in UK.

9:31am Uncle Michael:

Please...artisinal ringworm, only.

9:32am glenn:

how do we know but that the ringworm which cuts the airy way is an immense world of delight?

9:34am jeff g.:

Jello, all.

9:36am d¢ pät:

president.

9:37am Spaniel:

Morning all, too bad I missed Idaho call, I'm moving there in 3 months!

🥁

9:39am Brian in UK:

Add a cedilla on the second c of Cicim and it is a suburb of Istanbul.

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

Uncle Michael, Jeff G, d¢ pät & Spaniel – HELLO ALL!

9:40am Webhamster Henry:

You have nothing to fear if you are without sin, @Spaniel.

🥁

9:40am Brian in UK:

Idaho is that where the tattys come from?

9:41am Doug Schulkind:

@Brain in UK
Is Ciçim on the north shore of a body of water? (Please say yes.)

Here is the title of my next children's novel: "A Spaniel in Idaho"

9:42am Spaniel:

@webmaster i'll take that as a life lesson
@brian, taters, not tattys
@doug, i'd preorder that now

9:45am Doug Schulkind:

It sure sounds like they're singing "cajones"!

🥁

9:47am listener james from westwood:

Don't let that "Louie Louie" Congressional committee hear it!

9:47am Doug Schulkind:

They ARE singing "cajones"!! Look at this album cover for Mon Rivera's famous version of Kijis Konar: www.discogs.com...

Can I get a translation?!

🥁

9:47am Brian in UK:

Doug, the Sea of Marmara where spaniels swim free.

Spaniel you say potato, I'll say......

9:47am Webhamster Henry:

Cajones are not Cojones.

9:49am Doug Schulkind:

Oh yeah, you're right Webhamster Henry!! I almost embarrassed myself with that line of inquiry.

9:49am ausmanx:

i'm already sick of Hillary Clinton and i'm on the other side of the world. how are you guys going to put up with it?

9:50am Spaniel:

@brian

mash?

9:51am chromaphone:

Buenos dias! I am no republican but yea hopefully her policies will outweigh her monotonous speaking affect.

🥁

9:52am Brian in UK:

Excellent

9:52am Doug Schulkind:

Here's how, ausmanx: Because she is the alternative to a monumental disaster. That makes putting up with Hilary Clinton much easier to deal with.

Hey, chromaphone!

🥁

9:53am Brian in UK:

@ausmanx we all get the turnip we deserve.

9:53am Doug Schulkind:

Funny (to me): Google Translate says that "cajones" means "drawers." If you pull down a man's cajones, you get....

OK, not that funny.

9:53am chromaphone:

Oh hell yea, this groove in 7 is waking me up finally.

9:54am Spaniel:

@brian

oh... i'm not the quickest, tatty == tater, but not according to Urban Dictionary

9:55am Doug Schulkind:

Your shredder here is Toto Blanke: de.wikipedia.org...

9:56am Uncle Michael:

This is kicking butt.

9:56am chromaphone:

Doug I already turned Kaminski onto this but this track is making me want to share it with you. Playlist made by Dungen: www.youtube.com...

9:57am ausmanx:

well, Obama's been a monumental disaster, so i'm not sure Hillary will be any less. at least they're eloquent, which is an advantage over our chump

9:57am Doug Schulkind:

Your ivory masher is Jasper Van 't Hof: en.wikipedia.org...

9:57am jeff g.:

I was toto blanking on his name.

9:58am Doug Schulkind:

@chromaphone
Will check it out after the show. If I clicky the linky, it will play over the air.

9:58am Andrew Waterloo:

hehe "monumental disaster"

9:58am jeff g.:

@Brian, per John Oliver, you've got a weird one running now in the UK. For office, that is.

🥁

10:00am Brian in UK:

Mount Rushmore was a monumental disaster.

@jeff g which weird one we have several.

10:00am ausmanx:

oh doug, i think i sent you an email about launching the new edition of Clinton Walker's BURIED COUNTRY at my house next week. just FYI, i guess you can't actually make it. he's finishing the companion volume on Aboriginal womens' music too, DEADLY WOMAN BLUES

10:00am chromaphone:

@Doug: OMG! yea I bet you'll dig some of it. One of my favorites is the Terry Reid clip. Great more Obama bashing, just what I feel like thearing when listening to great radio.

10:01am Andrew Waterloo:

Chris Christie just vowed to crack down on states that legalize marijuana.

10:01am jeff g.:

The one who looks weird while eating bacon sandwiches?

🥁

10:03am Brian in UK:

Ed Milliband I guess you mean, slight speech impediment, not a good selling point. a decent man but not a leader of people.

10:04am holland oats:

drumma! peoples! bundlers!

🥁

10:05am Brian in UK:

Shame this guy is only standing at one seat. Enjoy the abbreviation of his party.
thepublandlord.com

10:09am jeff g.:

Only ten signatures? Is that really all that is needed, @Brian?

10:11am Alex In Illinois:

@Brian in UK: That is hilarious! It is a joke, a parody, isn't it? Years ago, a guy named Alan Keys ran against Obama for a senate seat and I thought I was hearing a parody, but Alan Keys was actually for real.

10:12am ausmanx:

i assume Monster Raving Loony are still standing candidates across the country, Brian? Lord Sutch must be getting on a bit now...

10:13am jeff g.:

(I do realize it's parody tho just wonder about the minimum requirement to run.)

10:14am Doug Schulkind:

@ausmanx
I got an email announcing the new edition of Buried Country. Was that from you?!

@chromaphone
I love Terry Reid!

10:15am Andrew Waterloo:

Before party registration fees reached a certain level Canada used to have this: en.wikipedia.org...

🥁

10:15am Brian in UK:

He is a stand up. Bright man. More itelliegent than Nigel Farridge as he calls him. It is a persona, take it as serious at your peril.
If you do not get the required votes you do lose your deposit, not sure on the number of signatures.
Sadly, Lord Sutch has passed to the great juke box in the sky.

10:16am Flash Strap:

God I love Dolphy

10:16am ausmanx:

it was, Doug, i am the People's Republic of Australasia (my house is an occasional music venue...)

10:17am Doug Schulkind:

Here is your Dolpy lineup:

Dolphy ~ alto, flute, bass clarinet
Eddie Armour ~ flugelhorn
Herbie Hancock ~ piano
Richard Davis ~ bass
Edgar Bateman ~ drums

10:18am chromaphone:

@Doug - the next time you listen to Reid imagine you are listening to Stephen Stills' voice sped up a bit. I have never done an experiment but I have a theory that if one was to slow down a Reid recording to the right speed you would in fact hear Stills coming thru the speakers :>)

10:18am ausmanx:

does his party live on without him, Brian? i will never be able to forget the description of Nigel F as "a wanked penis". it's a shame it wasn't used during the debates...

10:19am MrC:

Is this the only live recording of Herbie and Dolphy? Great..

10:19am Doug Schulkind:

Haha, ausmanx! I wondered why I was getting an invite! It looks like my wife my be headed back to Australia in December.

@chromaphone
Nothing a little pharmaceutical couldn't "fix," I'm betting.

10:21am holland oats:

SHUT UP IN BACK!

10:21am Flash Strap:

what a cool snippet of dialogue

🥁

10:21am Brian in UK:

ausmanx not sure, cannot be the same without him.
How can you trust a man like Farage who always has a pint in his hand and looks perpetually asinine.

🥁

10:23am Brian in UK:

Here you are
www.google.co.uk...

10:23am Doug Schulkind:

@Flash Strap
God loves Dolphy, too.

10:25am Doug Schulkind:

@MrC
Only one that I'm aware of. Blowing me away.

10:25am Flash Strap:

I've never heard this before, it's blowing me away too

10:25am Doug Schulkind:

Here is the blog that posted this Eric Dolphy record. Not sure if the link still works...

thinktoomuchjazz.wordpress.com...

10:26am ausmanx:

got a gig in december, but can't remember who, doug. are you coming too? i am hoping to have Robyn Hitchcock back next January, you should come for him!

10:29am Flash Strap:

link is HOT

10:29am Doug Schulkind:

There is a little more chatter between Dolphy and emcee Joe Carroll between the other songs, too. This recording also serves up three tracks from 1961 with Dolphy on Danish television and two tracks with Dolphy in L.A. in 1949 (one with Charlie Mingus!)

@ausmanx
Nothing is certain, but if my wife is going to Australia, I won't be accompanying her.

10:29am ausmanx:

i am wondering if Nigel has moved into ice-cream vans, Brian... instagram.com...

🥁

10:32am Brian in UK:

There is no party leading so the marginals may have some sway at the end. No black and white now, all grey.

10:32am Doug Schulkind:

Nice! The wonderful trombonist Wolter Wierbos just followed the Drummer Stream on Twitter. Can a stream blush?

10:33am Flash Strap:

if a brook can babble

10:34am lucyinbrooklyn:

good morning from bkln. loving this

10:35am Webhamster Henry:

Shakuhatchi is always welcome.

10:35am Doug Schulkind:

Yay, it's lucyinbrooklyn!

10:36am ndbob:

I'm taking today off from political comments.

10:37am Flash Strap:

I gotta run, sadly. It makes me lonesome when I go

10:37am Doug Schulkind:

Here is notation for the kinko-style fingering: nyokai.com...

@ndbob
Me too.

10:39am Doug Schulkind:

Maybe just jog, Flash Strap?

10:42am Flash Strap:

sage advice. off to jog

10:43am Doug Schulkind:

I wonder if the flute Dolphy was playing just then is the same one that was given to John Coltrane (by Dolphy's mother) after Dolphy's passing in '64.

10:46am Doug Schulkind:

I am pleased to not have to dash off to work after the show. I will be getting hinkidinkified!

wfmu.org...

10:49am Jeff Golick:

Unemployment has its difficulties, but this morning ain't one.

In other words, I've successfully moved from the bed to the computer.
As you were.

10:54am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff Golick
You mean you don't have a Bedcomputer?

🥁

10:55am Artie Haywire:

The Inevitable Hinkidinkification of World Culture

10:55am Jeff Golick:

Maybe if I get a job, I can pick one up.
But then...

11:00am Doug Schulkind:

Hey, Haywire!

11:00am Parq:

That's it. Call my agent; I'm changing the name of my next album to Hinkidinkification.

11:01am Doug Schulkind:

I've always said, nothing goes better with soul than handheld electronic gadgetry!

11:01am Uncle Michael:

Did Don Bryant invent the booty call?

11:01am Jeff Golick:

This works.

11:02am Doug Schulkind:

Howdy Mr. Parq, Sir!

11:06am Uncle Michael:

Brian in UK, you get my email?

🥁

11:09am Brian in UK:

Uncle, yes thanks. Glad it arrived.

🥁

11:09am Brian in UK:

Doug, got to cut & run. Tops as ever.

11:10am Uncle Michael:

Thanks again!

11:12am Doug Schulkind:

Safe travels, Brian in UK. Even if you're just headed to the kitchen.

11:16am Doug Schulkind:

I misspoke. Lalo Keba Dramé is from Gambia, not Congo.

11:21am Jeff Golick:

I love the quality of this music (Jones/South), whatever it is. German word, please? A kind of heartbreakingly casual loveliness?

11:22am Doug Schulkind:

I love how not fantastic the guitarist (Jones) is. Nothing fancy or virtuosic, but still just right.

11:22am Doug Schulkind:

This music was originally recorded to be the soundtrack to a film. Actually.

🥁

11:23am duke:

Good song. What was the movie?

11:23am SeanG:

LURIE!

11:26am Doug Schulkind:

Hi SeanG!

@duke
"‘Melanie & Me’ was a promotional tool used for a movie shot by director Chris Fitchett in Australia in 1975. Pressed in an edition of 100 copies, it was handed out to people who partook in the film, and who attended the only screening to date in Sydney. Used as the background music for the entire movie, this was actually the second version of the soundtrack, recorded last minute by Simon Jones as Chris wasn’t happy with the original. The result had become one of the most sought after releases from the Aussie scene, and one of the most obscure records from the region as well."

11:27am Doug Schulkind:

@duke
Of course, that didn't answer your question.

11:27am SeanG:

yeah that Lurie/Ribot woke me up, thanks!

11:28am Gary:

I remember the Lounge Lizards

11:28am Parq:

Is this the Artoo Lindsey Lizards or the Marc Ribot Lizards?

John Lurie, man. Has off-off-mainstream pop culture produced anyone with a stranger life journey? He went from obscure local musician to alt-music god to terrified recluse.

11:29am Doug Schulkind:

@Parq
Marc Ribot.

11:29am SeanG:

that Marvin Pontiac album is great fun

🥁

11:29am Artie Haywire:

John Lurie looks good in a suit.

11:29am Parq:

I see Sean G already answered my question. Should have guessed, since the guitar doesn't have Lindsey's trademark slashing.

11:31am Jeff Golick:

I'm gonna pretend I'm Doug for a second: my wife's college friend dated ("dated") Lurie for a brief period. Do believe he is strange.

11:31am Steve Willoughby:

i miss Fishing with John

11:31am Doug Schulkind:

Mr. Lurie may be a recluse, but he has 22,000 Twitter followers, including (as of just now) me.

11:33am still b/p:

..and artist. I like the buffalo.
johnlurieart.com

11:34am Doug Schulkind:

Welcome welcome, Steve Willoughby!

@Jeff Golick
I have a wife/John Lurie story, too. Wait for it.

Glad you're here, still b/p!

11:35am Doug Schulkind:

Coming up next is the Give the Drummer Some ID that Yogi Berra recorded at WFMU in 1995.

I'm not kidding.

11:35am Parq:

Doug, turning up my speakers.

11:36am Webhamster Henry:

Whenever Dorian was interviewing a celebrity for "The Green Room" or "The Nitecaps Show", she'd try to get a station id out of them.

11:37am Doug Schulkind:

WFMU's Fabio did a fine Tod Dockstader tribute last month (Dockstader died in February.)

11:37am Spaniel:

@steve, i have to watch this fishing with john, looks interesting (it's on youtube)

11:38am Gary:

LOL, how'd you do that?

11:38am Gary:

^Never mind!

11:40am still b/p:

Glad to be here -- Need the good musics to accompany computer work...some of it paid (thought I put exCESSive hours in on it) and a big chunk of something else unpaid but for worthwhile friendly purposes.

11:40am Carmichael:

Good morning, Syncopaters.

11:43am Uncle Michael:

The next room:

wfmu.org...

Please join me at the top of the hour.

11:43am Doug Schulkind:

Carmichael's here!

11:43am Carmichael:

But alas, Percy is not. RIP ...

11:44am Jeff Golick:

Lurie gives good Twitter.

The NYer story on him by Tad Friend (www.newyorker.com...), from 2010, spawned a vociferous response from Lurie and others: johnlurie-newyorker.blogspot.com... So so odd.

11:46am Doug Schulkind:

What I would do/give to see the footage of Percy Sledge performing here.

@Jeff Golick
That whole New Yorker thing with Lurie was so bizarre. I just wanted to hug everyone involved and say it's gonna be okay.

11:46am ndbob:

This is great - and I'm not much of a Percy fan

11:47am Doug Schulkind:

Pardon me while I weep uncontrollably during this Donny number.

11:47am Doug Schulkind:

Donny Hathaway, live at the Bitter End, 1971.

11:48am Doug Schulkind:

Speaking of someone who need many hugs. Oh oh oh my.

11:48am Jeff Golick:

Here come the waterworks.

11:50am Doug Schulkind:

GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO PROGRAMMING ALERT...
Uncle Michael's superduper radio show, Hinky Dinky Time, is up next here on the Drummer Stream. I invite you all to listen and enjoy. His playlist page is right over here: wfmu.org...

11:50am Uncle Michael:

As soon as this song ends, Simon Cowell will rip this performance to shreds.

11:53am ndbob:

lol UM

11:53am Doug Schulkind:

When I learned that Donny Hathaway studied with Yusef Lateef, I really had no way to make sense of it. The mental image of these two dear, compassionate souls interacting and collaborating... Almost too much.

11:55am Mike East:

just beautiful.

11:56am Doug Schulkind:

Glad you heard it, Mike East.

11:56am MrC:

Carla Thomas and Donny were classmates at Howard and did a jazz standards, live album with quartet that Stax never released. Finally came out a few yrs. ago.

11:57am ndbob:

excellent show Doug!

11:57am Uncle Michael:

Terrific show, Doug.

See you fine folks shortly.

11:58am Filip Pagowski:

Doug!
Thannks for another great show!
Cheers from Chamonix MtBlanc!

11:58am Doug Schulkind:

And there's this: donnyhathaway.blogspot.com...

HEY, Filip! Always great to hear from you!

🥁

11:58am duke:

I saw the Dells live a while back. They a great version of this.

🥁

11:59am duke:

Thanks for the great show Doug

11:59am Parq:

Great finish, and great show altogether. I was a young teen when "He's My Brother" broke, and I can tell you that its emotional impact was tremendous. The Hathaway version is something else indeed.

11:59am Doug Schulkind:

@Uncle Michael
I'm gonna go over a minute or so. Blame Donny. No don't, blame me.

🥁

12:01pm listener james from westwood:

Thanks, Doug, for the fine show!

12:01pm Gary:

Thanks Doug!

12:01pm Jeff Golick:

Hoo-whee, Doug. Thanks for the ride.

12:03pm Doug Schulkind:

That was just about the best ever. Thanks all!
