WFMU RADIO: Give The Drummer Some 04/26/19

Listener comments!

8:50am Maggie B.:

um...YOIKS!!

8:54am Doug Schulkind:

Jock'n'roll?

8:57am Listener Robert:

The vocals must be: "Ow, ow, ow...!"

8:58am Listener Robert:

I shudder to think what he does with the sticks.

8:59am Doug Schulkind:

He started out using the sticks, then switched to the cymbal.

9:01am Herb Stevens:

Afternoon all! Really hoping that cymbals guy gets pushed off the screen by the playlist. I'm listening at work so don't need him on the screen. hehehe

9:02am Doug Schulkind:

Not sure if the link is still working. Here is the original source for today's playlist "art":www.instagram.com...

9:04am Doug Schulkind:

@Herb Stevens
My apologies. We must all make some sacrifices for the sake of art. Maybe that's his name. Art.)

9:04am Listener Robert:

Good what's left of Passover. I concocted a thoroughly irreligious dish in its honor. It's a roast beef sandwich with a Passover matzo stuck in there. The matzo's crunch makes up for my several missing teeth in chewing the meat, but without the bread it'd just crumble all over the place.

9:05am Uncle Michael:

Why is there a Bill Mac gif on this playlist?!

9:07am Doug Schulkind:

I still think he should call his show Bill Mac 'n' Cheese.

9:09am Listener Robert:

If he plays cool jazz it could be Chilly Mac.

🥁

9:10am doctorjazz:

Hey all...gif looks more like it would work as self flagellation on Yom Kippur (...I have sinned...)

9:13am Doug Schulkind:

I've always said, if you gotta flagellate, self-flagellate.

9:13am Herb Stevens:

Words to live by Doug!

9:14am david w:

Oy, y'all.

9:15am Doug Schulkind:

Beloved david w!

9:18am Doug Schulkind:

Let's go jump in Alalake.

🥁

9:20am Granny Spicy Tuna:

Oy, indeed! Guess he's got the clap?

9:22am Doug Schulkind:

Way to make an entrance, Granny Spicy Tuna!!

🥁

9:23am Granny Spicy Tuna:

Well, geez, look at the greeter here. Hi! Thanks!

9:24am Doug Schulkind:

He plays with such...feeling.

9:28am Herb Stevens:

Really enjoying this. Can't help but wonder what the lyrics are about.

9:30am Doug Schulkind:

The song is either telling the story of the history of a particular family (usually royalty), or admonishing listeners to follow a particular set of social mores and behaviors.

9:33am Uncle Michael:

I'm not here...but I'm *here*.

9:34am Uncle Michael:

But that's neither here nor there.

9:36am Doug Schulkind:

There there, Uncle Michael.

🥁

9:36am Artie:

Greetings to all the Drummers, Bangers and Cymbolic Logisticians in the clubhouse this morning!

9:38am Doug Schulkind:

Artie's at the party!

9:39am still b/p:

So...I looked at the Instagram clip to see if there was some rational or interestingly irrational premise of exploration, expression or punishment going on with our friend Nutty Rich there. When he finishes the series of mixed self-strikes and items, he says, "The wonderful thing about improvisation..." then video stops before he completes the thought. Guesses...?
a) "you don't have to dress up for it."
b) "the audience and your 'nads never know what's coming next."
c) "someone's always willing to give the drummer some ice afterward."

9:40am Doug Schulkind:

The wonderful thing about improvisation...

"It feels so good when you stop."

9:41am Sem:

Self S & M? The drummer needs some, but I am pretty sure, not some of that.

Hello, Doug, regulars, high tests, and those who identify as leaded.

9:41am Doug Schulkind:

The orchestra on this Niño Rivera slice is full of towering talents:

Bass – Salvador Vivar
Bongos – Rogelio "Yeyo" Iglesias
Conductor – Niño Rivera
Congas – Tata Güines
Flute – Richard Egues
Guiro – Gustavo Tamayo
Piano – Orestes Lopez
Saxophone – Emilio Peñalver
Timbales – Guillermo Barreto
Tres – Niño Rivera
Trumpet – "El Negro" Vivar

9:43am Doug Schulkind:

Greetings, Sem!

9:43am Doug Schulkind:

At first I wasn't sure about the art gracing today's playlist page, but it's really groin on me.

9:45am Sem:

You mean groaning, right, Doug?

9:46am Doug Schulkind:

Riiiight.

🥁

9:46am βrian:

Strangely cymbal-ic.

9:48am Doug Schulkind:

Very strangely, βrian.

9:50am still b/p:

The Droog Who Refused to Hurt Other People.

9:51am Droog Schulkind:

I like that narrative a whole lot, still b/p.

🥁

9:52am βrian:

Something about pulque, here?

9:53am chresti:

Gd morning!

9:53am Doug Schulkind:

Sweet to see you, chresti!

9:55am fleep:

Strangest cure for jock itch I've ever seen

9:56am Doug Schulkind:

Strange, but, we can only hope, effective, fleep.

10:00am Doug Schulkind:

I believe today's playlist art performer is trying to drive out Satan. If so, my next set will prove his method's ineffectiveness.

10:01am burke:

If it's raining then no leaf blower guy, right?

10:01am still b/p:

They show you the recommended treatment in the video and it scares the jock itch and any and every affliction right outa ya. An area of medical practice called "Oh-no-eopathy."

🥁

10:04am Brian in UK:

Ahoy Cap't Doug. Wet and windy over here me hearties.

🥁

10:05am Brian in UK:

Novak Jock-itch. a tennis player?

10:05am Jeff g. on the train:

Satan resides in ALL of our nether regions. Hail, Satan, Doug, drummers.

10:05am chresti:

Haven’t seen the playlist art yet

10:06am Doug Schulkind:

@burke
No leaf-blower guy for sure! I think he might've switched to another day. Oh how I miss him.

Welcome Brian in UK! and Jeff G!

10:07am sinner:

Repent!

🥁

10:07am Brian in UK:

New turntable just arrived. Wheeee.
Just got to find some unscratchy records.

🥁

10:08am βrian:

How high's the garlic, @BUK?

10:09am Doug Schulkind:

@sinner
I need some advice. When you repent, should you always lay on two coats?

🥁

10:09am Brian in UK:

Satin is Real.
Taffeta is too real.

🥁

10:09am dutchtheo:

Howdy, at the crossroads. thanks for the-listen all around-dust to digital! I was at Da homey...

10:10am sinner:

That would be "lie" on two coats, my good man.

10:10am Doug Schulkind:

Coming up next, the MOTHER of all Satan songs.

10:10am Doug Schulkind:

The angel dutchtheo descends!

🥁

10:10am Brian in UK:

@βrian, Sem is the one to talk about garlic. Bit behind this year. Just been out buying toms and compost.

10:11am still b/p:

And use a holy roller.

🥁

10:12am Brian in UK:

Old joke. The vicar is coming round. I am going to lay on a trifle for him.

10:13am Doug Schulkind:

If you ride the Devil's train, you're gonna need...a suitcase.

🥁

10:13am Granny Spicy Tuna:

oh, golly, the puns are just out if control here. Hit after HIT!!!

🥁

10:14am Brian in UK:

@still b/p Good one. Thought you might have primed us for that one.

10:15am holland oats:

drumma! peoples! lucifer's luggage!

10:17am Doug Schulkind:

Definitely fits in the overhead storage, holland oats!

🥁

10:17am Granny Spicy Tuna:

i'm supposed to be packing for a flight and i can't peel myself away from WFMU

10:19am Sem:

Satan's brand recognition is higher than Santa Claus....wait, Satan Claus.
What the devil!?

10:19am still b/p:

I almost heeded the call...to become a man of the dropcloth.

10:19am Doug Schulkind:

Safe travels, Spicy GT!

10:20am Doug Schulkind:

@still b/p
Then you could be a professional repenter.

10:20am Parq:

Just opened up the playlist. Um, yeah.

🥁

10:21am βrian:

Gluten Morgen, Seitan!

10:22am Doug Schulkind:

I hope you brought the kids with ya, Parq!

🥁

10:22am Granny Spicy Tuna:

Gluten tag, Seitan!

10:23am sinner:

Sang it!

10:23am Doug Schulkind:

Satan's mandate: Extra gluten

10:24am Parq:

Doug, even better, a Presbyterian minister has dropped by.

10:24am still b/p:

Can't hear Porter without wondering what he's wearing.

10:25am Doug Schulkind:

Really.... well.

Not.

10:26am Listener Robert:

Was this suite meant ironically?

🥁

10:27am Granny Spicy Tuna:

Doug: my sweetie would approve. He's on a "gluten free free diet." He eats only things MIT GLUTEN!

🥁

10:27am Granny Spicy Tuna:

Gotta fly, folx, thanks for all the kind words, silly puns and constant flow of delicious tunes!

10:31am Listener Gregory:

I had to wait until the SatanFest was over to tune in. I can resist nothing, including temptation.

🥁

10:31am Brian in UK:

Safe trip, Granny.

10:34am Doug Schulkind:

Alan Dawson on tympani here!

10:35am Listener Gregory:

My tympannic membranes are vibrating sympathetically to this.

10:35am chresti:

Happy landing, Granny.

10:35am chresti:

Love tympani

10:36am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory
Listen to this apple, Son.

10:37am Jeff Golick:

@Brian: who's that sweet lookin' bird?

10:38am Doug Schulkind:

Oliver Nelson on alto sax. The other alto here is Eric Dolphy.

10:38am Doug Schulkind:

This would be Eric Dolphy. Of course.

10:39am Doug Schulkind:

Richard Williams on trumpet.

10:40am Doug Schulkind:

Roy Haynes, who turned 94 last month and is still pounding the skin, on drums.

10:40am Doug Schulkind:

Oliver Nelson doubling on tenor sax.

10:43am Listener Gregory:

I think my favorite Dolphy is when he is placed in a more "mainstream" group and still does his outside thing. The contrast is usually incredible.

🥁

10:43am Brian in UK:

@Jeff. Heggerty, the escaping chicken. She is pecked by the others in the run and escapes. A dilemma, I do not want chickens eating flowers and suchlike but do not want her to be beaten up. Pecking order really exists.
Longer answer than you expected?

10:46am Doug Schulkind:

My Favorite Dolphy, starring Ray Walston?

10:47am Jeff Golick:

@Brian: I would honestly like to hear more.

10:50am Listener Gregory:

No, Doug, "I Dream of Dolphy," in which Eric uses witchcraft to enchant the listeners.

10:53am Doug Schulkind:

The Dolphy Hillbillies

10:53am Doug Schulkind:

Surely the plot is obvious.

10:54am Listener Gregory:

Albert Mangelsdorff was a listened-to musician in the 70s, and I don't think I've heard any reference to him since then... until now. Hard to understand this neglect.

10:54am Listener Gregory:

Doug, who is going to play Jethro? I can see Charles Mingus playing Granny.

10:57am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory
Gunter Hampel will play Jethro.

10:58am Doug Schulkind:

Speaking of The Beverly Hillbillies: wfmu.org...

10:58am still b/p:

That was a few years after the run of "Dolphy Gillis."

10:58am Doug Schulkind:

Smoov one, still b/p.

10:59am Listener Gregory:

Norman Granz will play Mr. Drysdale, the banker.

10:59am Doug Schulkind:

No, Listener Gregory. Leonard Feather.

11:01am Listener Gregory:

You might be right, Doug. I'd like to see both of them audition for the part.

11:03am Doug Schulkind:

May the best man win.

🥁

11:04am Brian in UK:

Jeff, I think that Heggerty wants to be a house chicken, this is unlikely. She will never be supplying early morning cups of tea or offering to cook dinner. She was the runty one when we got the latest rescue chooks and a bit like us the chickens aim for the weaker ones. We have already had to retrieve her from next doors garden, twice. Counselling might be an expensive option, the chicken not me.

🥁

11:05am Brian in UK:

Doug, the best man wins if he pulls the bridesmaid. Sexist? Maybe.

11:07am Jeff Golick:

You say Deram, the playlist says Dream, let's call the whole thing Heggerty.

11:10am Doug Schulkind:

Wonder what Freud would say about that typo, Jeff Golick.

11:10am still b/p:

re: link to playlist at 10:58...
I can never hear Uncle Jed without wondering what he's wearing.

11:11am Listener Gregory:

I first read "Frank Kakra" as Franz Kafka. That would be in keeping with today's GIF.

11:11am Doug Schulkind:

The House Chickens was the name of my first band in high school.

11:12am chresti:

I was just looking at Jed, pretty snazzy

11:12am Jeff Golick:

I admire Heggarty's ability to fly the coop; maybe she could star in a remake of Dolphy's Heroes.

🥁

11:12am Brian in UK:

We pronounce it dear-rum.

11:13am Jeff Golick:

@Doug: Freud would say, "Get off my couch and take those lousy records with you. That'll be €150."

🥁

11:14am Brian in UK:

Jeff, trying to figure how she gets out. Thought I had made it a fortress.
All seven chooks are laying these days.
Was trying to figure a way to get some Chili Relish over to you.

11:14am chresti:

Build a separate house for bullied chickens?

11:14am Doug Schulkind:

And you serve your dear rum at room temperature, unlike we uncultured Americans.

11:14am Listener Gregory:

I remember Dolphy's Heroes, where the band is forced to wait in the horribly cramped green room until the evil club owner agrees to pay them.

11:15am Doug Schulkind:

Emotional support chicken is the name of my next radio show.

11:15am Jeff Golick:

[attempts a brexit/chicken escape pun; gives up, fruitlessly, hands in the air]

11:16am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory
Where the evil doctor assumes Dolphy is a drug addict and not a diabetic, and let's him die in a heap.

Not a comedy.

11:16am Jeff Golick:

Well that escalated quickly.

11:16am Listener Gregory:

(Stroking my support chicken now.)

🥁

11:16am Brian in UK:

Another old one. Freud to patient 'You are a schizophrenic that will be $150 each'.

11:17am coelacanth∅:

'morning Doug and all

11:18am Doug Schulkind:

Welcome welcome, coelacanth∅! Nice to see you turn up in the Google doodle on Earth Day!

11:18am Jeff Golick:

I'm enjoying imagining Peter Broetzmann as Sgt. Schultz.

11:18am Santos L Halper:

This Alemayehu is some good Eshete!

🥁

11:18am Brian in UK:

@chresti, there is a limit. It is already a rescue, so would have been at the abbatoir long ago otherwise.

11:19am Jeff Golick:

That Eshete groove was eternal.

11:19am Listener Gregory:

In none of the Dolphy TV shows does there seem to be a role for John Coltrane. Sad.

11:20am Doug Schulkind:

Santos L Halper, speaking truth to power!

11:21am Doug Schulkind:

John Coltrane, executive vice president in charge of programming.

🥁

11:22am Brian in UK:

Deram was a prolific and varied label.

🥁

11:23am Brian in UK:

Doug ....and the trampoline.

11:23am Doug Schulkind:

So many beloved offerings from Deram.

11:23am holland oats:

this "door saga" is great DYAC

11:25am Santos L Halper:

@ Jeff G: speaking of Sgt Schultz, I happened upon a movie scene where John Banner playing a Nazi camp commandant was having dinner with Werner Klemperer playing Adolf Eichmann. Yikes

🥁

11:26am Brian in UK:

Doug, catch the rest later, dog walking time. Thanks

11:27am Doug Schulkind:

Have a lovely perambulation with the canine, Brian in UK!

11:29am Listener Gregory:

Trying to say Chibidaba, Chibidaba three times fast. Have yet to say it once slowly.

11:32am coelacanth∅:

Doug (@11.19) so, gobble's been watching me?
but then they watch everyone so i'm not surprised.
...i thought earth day was always on a sunday (?)

11:32am burke:

Chibidaba is the new sock-it-to-me

11:34am Doug Schulkind:

@burke
And boy did we ever need a new sock-it-to-me.

11:35am Doug Schulkind:

Gobble heard that, coelacanth∅.

11:35am holland oats:

lose that turkey get duck duck go

11:37am Listener Gregory:

That famous soul harpsichord sound!

11:38am Doug Schulkind:

Was it a harpsichord? I couldn't quite tell. Almost sounded like a celeste. But you're probably right.

11:39am Doug Schulkind:

The mighty Bill Mac, Captain Zero, is up next on the Drummer Stream. Tune in and he will polish your inner ear to a high sheen.

PLAYLIST: wfmu.org...

11:39am still b/p:

"Chibidaba" is a nice term to work into an arrangement of South America Getaway from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

11:40am Listener Gregory:

Be reasonable, Doug. A celeste is not soulful like a harpsichord is!

11:41am Doug Schulkind:

Make my Chibi a double!

11:42am Doug Schulkind:

Fats Waller and Sun Ra might disagree with you, Listener Gregory.

11:43am Listener Gregory:

I just saw an ad for a new movie (or play) about Buddy Bolden, and he was playing a Fats Waller song. Oops!

11:45am Jeff Golick:

@Santos (@11:25): Yikes, indeed.

@holland oats speaks the truth re search engines. Replace the goog with Duck Duck Go, and go in peace.

11:45am rw:

Howdy! I know there's something to say about today's gif but I'm at a loss.

11:46am Listener Gregory:

Maybe "I'm Shooting High" will encourage the GIF guy to raise his sights a bit.

11:47am Doug Schulkind:

I've always wondered if rw rides in a RV. Welcome aboard!

11:49am coelacanth∅:

holland -duck duck go is my main, and i might've gone the whole day without seeing the gargle page if i didn't want to see my own image on it...
but, Doug, there's no doodle here on either of my computers on the gaggle page!

signed,
confused

11:50am rw:

I RV pretty much everywhere.

11:50am Listener Gregory:

FYI on the Bolden movie: https://boldenmovie.com/#home
Given that almost nothing is known about his music, I guess there's little point in being picky about anachronisms.

11:51am rw:

And thanks! Glad to be here! Thank you for doing this thing!

11:51am Doug Schulkind:

@coelacanth∅
It was in here:
www.theverge.com...

11:52am Doug Schulkind:

Where is Mr C when we need him. Who the hell was Branding Iron?!

11:52am Jeff Golick:

Footnote re today's gif: that performance took place at my favorite record store in NYC; have spent beaucoup bucks there. Usually kept my clothes on.

11:54am Doug Schulkind:

Proprietor Bruce Gallanter would give you the shirt of his back. Literally.

11:54am Listener Gregory:

@Jeff, in that case, you have not felt the full DMG experience.

11:56am Doug Schulkind:

Holy crap, I'm gonna finish on time today. Boy will Uncle Michael be pissed.

11:56am Doug Schulkind:

Not really.

11:56am Listener Gregory:

Today's show hit me like a blow to the groin. Thanks a lot, Doug!

11:56am Doug Schulkind:

Thought it's always better to be pissed off than pissed on.

11:58am coelacanth∅:

thanks for that link Doug. earth day came and left whilst i worked last sunday &/or monday, isolated in a house/yard with only 3 dogs to converse with.

11:59am Jeff Golick:

BIG THANKS, @Doug!

11:59am coelacanth∅:

and Thanks Doug for yet another fine program!

11:59am chresti:

Hi coel!
Thanks Doug!

12:00pm coelacanth∅:

hey chresti!

🥁
