I used to work with a man who claimed that he was a medium. All could see he was a large.

9:04am Doug Schulkind:

glennnnnnnnn!

9:04am Sem:

Happy to get down, the drummer can have some of whatever he wants.

Hello, Doug, the schulkinder skipping classes, and the fortunate few who, through serendipity, find themselves here, washed up whilst navigating the Stream.

9:07am Webhamster Henry:

Hi Drummer Sommers!

9:08am seth from muddy creek:

Pitt! Zeleonopelle what up!

9:09am Maggie B.:

morning Doug and drummers. Having my post-breakfast cuppa Joe too.

9:09am Webhamster Henry:

Hammered Dulcimer great Bill Spence died yesterday.

9:09am Doug Schulkind:

Welcome welcome, Sem!

Sorry no autoharps, Webhamster Henry!

Seth in Z-Town! Well how 'bout that!

9:09am Doug Schulkind:

Many of the musicians I play are hammered, Webhamster Henry.

9:10am Webhamster Henry:

I'm also a dulcimer hammerer, just saying.

9:12am fred:

Good morning Doug and all

9:12am Goyim in the AM:

I love how Bascom always sounds like he's on the brink of just losing it and giggling. Hi folks!

9:13am Doug Schulkind:

Jump aboard, fred, there are plenty of life preservers! Greetings, Goyim in the AM (hee-hee)!

🥁

9:14am Brian in UK:

I guess on this station someone has devised a Harry Smith show in the past.

9:17am Stanley:

Doug! Fellas! Give me a hug!

🥁

9:18am sinner:

Banjer.

9:18am glenn:

jeeez, this is a rather cheery suicide song.

9:19am Artie:

Chin up, Stringbean!

9:19am Doug Schulkind:

One of the greatest compliments I ever received came from Harvey Bialy, a friend and fellow traveler with Harry Smith who told me that Harry would've loved my radio show. I'm on Cloud 9 from that 15-year-old comment.

9:19am Webhamster Henry:

Death by banjo might be appropriate.

9:20am Doug Schulkind:

@Webhamster Henry
Don't you know it.

9:21am fred:

Ola Belle!

9:22am Doug Schulkind:

I see you up there, sinner! Hey, I'm spinning some o' your nuggets on today's proceedings. Thanks in advance!

9:22am Doug Schulkind:

@fred
She is one of my all-time favorites. Best of the very best.

9:27am Stanley:

Can I do anyone an omelette, instead?

9:28am Doug Schulkind:

Help yourself, Stanley!

9:28am fred:

@Doug: Agreed. And that Dust-to-Digital book/comp is one of my favorite releases on my favorite label

9:29am annie:

ok, digging into work; i'll check in to clicky-star now and then.

9:29am Mark R:

Wow, isn't it amazing the rich musical history of our country? It seems like every one of your shows, I discover something or someone I've never heard of who blows my mind!

9:29am glenn:

the hot david pecker rag.

9:30am Listener Gregory:

Hey, Doug, you're my sugar baby now. Congratulations!

9:30am Funky16corners:

Morning all!

B/W

Hot Woodpecker Rag sounds...filthy.

9:30am Alex In Illinois:

So do the Viola and the accordion get bad raps. Oh, you just mentioned the accordion!

9:31am Webhamster Henry:

If this were really a Drummer Some show, there's be a 17 minute free jazz banjo track right about now.

9:31am Alex In Illinois:

A banjo is a drum with strings attached sayeth Bela Fleck

9:32am ?:

Zane Campbell -Ola Belle Reed's nephew - plays in NYC every now and then - covering a lot of her music and that of other influential family members. He's interviewed in the book accompanying the digital to dust compilation on which "The Ranger's Command" is included. Zane was the subject of a lengthy profile in the Washington Post last year - he's also a really amazing visual artist. Check him out:https://www.facebook.com/zanecampbellmusic/

9:32am david w:

I have a 17 minute free jazz banjo track! Hi Doug and all!

9:33am Webhamster Henry:

@david I bet you do!

9:35am glenn:

speaking of the orioles, spring training begins in 3 days.

9:36am glenn:

i know a pretty good banjer masher. jaymestone.com

9:37am Doug Schulkind:

If this number has a Caribbean lilt to it, maybe that's because clarinetist Willy Roachford is from Barbados!

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

You bring your mind, Mark R, and I'll blow it every time.

9:40am Doug Schulkind:

Have another sugary drink, Listener Gregory. On me!

9:41am Doug Schulkind:

Greetings, radio brothers Funky16corners and david w!

9:41am Doug Schulkind:

Oh and howdy to you, Alex in Illinois!

9:42am Funky16Corners:

I love the bass vocals and keyboards on this one

9:43am Doug Schulkind:

You've always been a lover not a fighter, Funky16Corners.

9:43am still b/p:

Drink it,
Drink it sugary.
Maybe a bug coming on. Chicken soup later, international immunity-boosting music now.

9:46am Doug Schulkind:

Put what hurts up against the speaker, still b/p. Let me heal it.

🥁

9:47am Brian in UK:

I love a subtle band name.

9:48am Doug Schulkind:

@glenn
I believe the Orioles may be even more historically bad this year. These are dark days in Birdtown.

9:49am glenn:

yep, they're pretty bad.

9:49am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
Speaking of subtle band names, in the next set I'll be spinning the Gigantic Overland Travelers.

9:55am northguineahills:

ohio gasaimasu, mis amigos...

9:55am Doug Schulkind:

Yahoo to you, northguineahills!

9:58am Uncle Michael:

FREE JAZZ BANJO. JAZZ BANJO IS INNOCENT!

10:00am Doug Schulkind:

You were working on that one a good while, Uncle Michael. But it was worth it.

10:02am Listener Gregory:

Whose rank in this set is highest? I guess High Kings > Master > Professional > Crazy.

10:04am david w:

And to resolve my banjo tease: paulmetzger.net

10:04am Funky16Corners:

@Unk - It reminds me of the old National Lampoon story where Junior Samples gets put in jail, and people are outside yelling "Free Samples" and the guy in the story is like "Samples of what?"

10:09am glenn:

blood of the lamb. is that a lever product?

10:11am Doug Schulkind:

If escaped criminals can be said to be "on the lamb," it's no wonder they get caught so easily. Lambs are a decidedly poor choice of getaway.

🥁

10:16am sinner:

Hallelujah.

10:16am Doug Schulkind:

Well I can see that you're all pretty much gobsmacked by that last brilliant comment.

10:17am northguineahills:

This is deep!

10:17am Doug Schulkind:

The man of the OUR, our beloved sinner!

10:20am glenn:

maybe not gobsmacked as much as well, not ashamed either, but perhaps more wondering about lack of sleep. yeah, that's it. lack of sleep.

10:20am still b/p:

Keep the devil delayed in a go-slow.

10:21am Doug Schulkind:

Bestriding a lamb.

10:30am northguineahills:

Just making collard greens and rice, about to start to make spicy boiled peanuts for the weekend (my recipe).

10:32am still b/p:

Spicy Boiled Peanuts was the name of Doug's first band in high school. Or his first Bible group.

10:33am holland oats:

drumma! peoples! void bros!

10:33am Doug Schulkind:

These radio shows write themselves, I tell ya.

🥁

10:35am βrian:

Flint? I'm from Flint.

10:36am chresti:

Good morning to drums n Doug

10:37am Listener Gregory:

Went out for coffee and missed the Lord. Story of my life.

10:39am Doug Schulkind:

Good morning, Flinty! Good morning, chresti!

10:39am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory
You brews, you lose.

10:40am Uncle Michael:

My glasses are half empty.

10:42am Doug Schulkind:

Unifocals?

10:43am still b/p:

Then you better....Reeee-spec yourself!

10:44am Sem:

May I just say that the program to this moment has been right some good?

10:45am Jeff Golick:

I see where this is going.

10:45am Sem:

@b/p: !

10:46am Doug Schulkind:

No, friends, The Lash was not another Stan Lee character.

10:47am Doug Schulkind:

Glad that you're going there with me, Jeff Golick!

10:48am Doug Schulkind:

@still b/p
Masterful work, Sir.

10:50am Doug Schulkind:

Well that was a rude ending.

10:50am Listener Gregory:

Whoops, the lash got the bass player!

10:52am Funky16Corners:

Andy Bey?

10:53am Doug Schulkind:

The pride of Newark, New Jersey!

10:53am Mr C:

Who's the drummer on this record Doug?

🥁

10:54am JtotheK:

good morning Doug, hiya everybody.

10:54am Doug Schulkind:

@Mr C
Harold White on drumset. Nat Bettis on congas.

10:54am Funky16Corners:

I just picked up the Horace Silver LP with he and his sister Salome singing on it.

10:54am Doug Schulkind:

@Mr C
Also, good morning!

10:55am Doug Schulkind:

And greets to you, JtotheK!

10:55am Mr C:

Harold's cooking!
at the Continental!

10:56am Doug Schulkind:

@Funky16Corners
Bey had a singing group with his sisters Salome and Geraldine: Andy & the Bey Sisters.

10:59am Funky16Corners:

I have their first album on RCA. It's pretty incredible.

10:59am Webhamster Henry:

hey - did Ayler ever even TRY the banjo?

11:00am northguineahills:

Brain no work, never heard of Ayler album. I needed this.

11:00am Doug Schulkind:

@Webhamster Henry
Not that I'm aware of. But he did play the bagpipes.

11:04am Listener Gregory:

I hope this bass player escapes the lash, but the whole panther/lion thing has me worried.

11:06am Jeff Golick:

I remember buying the reissue of this Nova record when it came out on CD. Was kind of a big deal (to me).

11:08am Doug Schulkind:

It was (is) a big deal, Jeff Golick. A big, beautiful deal.

11:10am northguineahills:

and haven't heard this Steve Reid either.... it took Kieran Hebdan (Fourtet) for me to discover him...

11:13am Mr C:

Where is that Albert doc available?? It was momentarily on you tube, then vanished. Man, I would love to see that.

11:16am Funky16Corners:

I've been lucky enough to see Andy Bey in person a few times, Every bit as remarkable as you'd think.

11:21am Listener Gregory:

I'm hearing more panthers in the Gamelan than I heard in the jazz. Nice.

11:26am glenn:

albert finney has died.

11:27am Uncle Michael:

You're either on the bus, or off the bus:

www.wfmu.org...

(top of the hour)

11:28am Doug Schulkind:

I guess Albert Finney is off the bus then.

11:28am Webhamster Henry:

Now this one is Sundanese Degung Gamelan, like the one I'm in.

11:29am Doug Schulkind:

You have a Sundanese disposition, Webhamster Henry.

11:30am îke:

Sounding good!

11:30am Funky16Corners:

IMHO the best Scrooge of them all...

11:30am chresti:

RIP Albert Finney

11:31am Sem:

Finney was extraordinary in Under the Volcano, where he had been off the bus before the invention of busses.

🥁

11:31am Brian in UK:

Doug, this S P Group is the same CD as our daughter brought me back from Indonesia. Bandung track 8

My nose and eyes are pretty gooey

11:39am Arthur Askey:

More Bandung, please Mr Doug

11:39am Funky16Corners:

I'm digging the vocal interchange. They're like the Mickey and Sylvia of Indonesia.

11:40am Doug Schulkind:

Speaking of pretty gooes, Uncle Michael's HINKY DINKY TIME radio show is up next here on your 24-hour Drummer Stream. Tune in and feel the slime!

PLAYLIST: wfmu.org...

11:40am coelacanth∅:

Hey Sem!
chresti i guess you're discharging the upsa judicial system

🥁

11:42am Brian in UK:

@ArtHur you must know Colin Bass aka Sabah Habas Mustapha.

11:43am Webhamster Henry:

C is pronounced "Ch" -> "Chalung"
signed,
Mr. Know-it-all

11:44am Arthur Askey:

Never heard of him, Brian. Is he a funny man?

11:45am Doug Schulkind:

🥁

11:46am Brian in UK:

Or Artur Aski as you are also known.
Hello playmates.

11:47am Arthur Askey:

My cover is blown

11:47am Doug Schulkind:

Give the Drummer Some, where minds and covers are routinely blown!

11:48am Funky16Corners:

Oooh, this is nice (heads over to Discogs...)

11:49am Mr C:

Thanks man!

11:49am Sem:

Wonder if Mr. Cocker ever listened to some of Mr. Mitchell's records.

11:49am Doug Schulkind:

You are entirely welcome, Sir!

11:50am Doug Schulkind:

@Funky16Corners
On this comp: www.discogs.com...

11:51am Funky16Corners:

Ahhhh, previously unissued. Gotta pick that up!

11:52am Doug Schulkind:

@Funky16Corners
"Previously unissued," the most pathetic two-word phrase in the English language.

11:52am Mr C:

Eddie and Ernie never made a bad record. Outcast!

11:53am chresti:

Haha coel- absolutely right!

11:53am Funky16Corners:

@Doug - Especially when it's something incredible.

11:55am Doug Schulkind:

That Lollipops "Go for Yourself" was also PI. Sickening.

11:56am Funky16Corners:

This is very tasty as well!

11:56am Uncle Michael:

Thanks for the music, Doug...see you all in the bar car.

11:56am chresti:

Thank you drummer Doug, always glad to catch the early show.

11:56am Sem:
