The name Haskell always makes me think of how, when Wexler directed Medium Cool, when he's shooting the fictional plot line in which Robert Forster's character is in the middle of the real 1968 Chicago Democratic convention protests and shit starts to get ugly in the protests, you hear an off-camera voice from his crew yell "Haskell, this is real!"

I play fast and loose with the time/space continuum, Uncle Michael.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:16am doctorjazz:

No, check out some of the Abdullah Ibrahim big band things (guessing these are way out of print, have the old vinyl), he broke in with the loft scene in NY before he started doing his thing with the quartet, then Ekaya. Those records have a freewheeling and "out" feel (with his usual beautiful melodies) that he never returned with (think it had to do with the company he was keeping at the time, the free jazzers of downtown).
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:17am Doug Schulkind:

Oh you mean the stuff on Enja and suchlike?!

Nice, Artie Haywire! Great to know he is still delivering the joy.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:29am doctorjazz:

Absolutely-think Abdullah Ibrahim may be the jazz musician (if you want to call him that) that I've seen live more than any other. Even took my wife to see him on our first date at Sweet Basil's in Manhattan way back when. Haven't seen him in a bit, though, nice to hear he can still bring it to his shows.

Fairchild is such an unsual, off beat song. I love it...

@Parq
Almost every Thanksgiving, we pile into the car and have a feast in Vermont with a wonderful gal electrician. Not this year, however.

UM, I am always down for the rooty poot roundup.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:44am Doug Schulkind:

Now playing: the one song of Allen Toussaint's that he claimed as his favorite in numerous interviews.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:44am listener james from westwood:

Especially all those rooty poots down on Tulane.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:46am Uncle Michael:

I'll wear they heads out, James.

Uncle Michael, are you a disc jockey?

Ohm Sweet Ohm

Transition - one of Allen's favorite. Glad it made it to your playlist, Doug. I'm in heaven with this set!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:46am Rich in Washington:

I don't mean to disfigure you. You know how we talk.
  11:47am Mr C:

It has a little Bacharach component in composition..
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:47am Uncle Michael:

Rich...don't call me no Disc Jockey or whatever...you all know how you do...
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:47am Brian in UK:

Just glad I saw Mr T last time he came to London. Him, a piano, some songs & stories. Priceless.

Thanks, Doug.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:47am Rich in Washington:

but I feel assured you will wear our heads out.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:48am Doug Schulkind:

Here's a nice piece on this epic track: www.trunkworthy.com...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:48am Uncle Michael:

This has to be Allen's own piano on this.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:49am Parq:

There has never been a radio personality like Uncle Michael before -- and there'll never be another like him again.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:49am Doug Schulkind:

And the whole arrangement, UM.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:50am Doug Schulkind:

Like this morning's breakfast, Uncle Michael wears his music passions on his sleeve.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:52am Uncle Michael:

I just found some blueberry muffin in my cummerbund and some Davie Allen on my sleeve.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:53am Brian in UK:

Uncle you is classy.

Rhyming necessary with monetary. Pure Allen Toussaint.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:54am Uncle Michael:

I don't wipe my mouth on my sleeve. I tend to lose cuff links that way.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:56am Uncle Michael:

Thanks for the amazing show, Doug. I hope to see you all up in the bar car.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:56am Rich in Washington:

I just this morning accidently dipped the entire cuff of my bathrobe into my loaded french press just prior to reaching for a spoon to stir it.
I am reminded of a certain scene in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:56am Parq:

Saw a lovely, understated, eclectic solo performance by Allen in the mid 80s. It didn't go over with some because it didn't sound like the Meters (see below), but I thought it was terrific.

First Katrina and now the death of Toussaint. Pity poor NOLA and the world.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:57am Rich in Washington:

I once read the buttons on coat cuffs was an invention of Napoleon, because he got tired of seeing his soldiers wipe their runny noses on their coat sleeves.
  11:58am Mr C:

Unlike almost any other master producer/arrangers, Allen wrote the words too...

excellent show Doug!

Harry Shearer, he of The Simpsons, Spinal Tap, Credibility Gap, has been doing lots of great reportage on NOLA. His podcast is called Le Show.
  11:59am Rob in N.O. (formerly SAV):

I was counting on a Toussaint set. Nicely done, Doug, especially the closers. Thank you.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:59am Alex In Illinois:

@Rich in Washington: I heard the same story, only instead of Napoleon, I heard it was Queen Victoria.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:59am listener james from westwood:

Always a joy, Doug, and thanks for the closing tribute!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:00pm Doug Schulkind:

And fed the cats in the alley behind the studo too, surely, Mr C.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:00pm Rich in Washington:

I wonder is either of them is correct. Maybe The Tsar?
Avatar 🥁 12:00pm duke:

Thanks Doug and all for the great show. Off to HDT
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:01pm Rich in Washington:
