9:18am dutchtheo:

9:18am Doug Schulkind:

Sorry, Goyim, you need your cha cha CHA heels or it won't work.

Good morning, Ten from Hyde Park!

🥁

9:21am duke:

I want cha cha cha

9:21am Webhamster Henry:

This Cha Cha Cha complies with HIPAA laws.
Goodness Gracious Me!

9:22am Stanley:

It's a while since I did the cha cha cha
Greets peeps.

9:23am still b/p:

It really cha cha chaps my ass that I missed so much of the set so far!

🥁

9:24am bobdc:

Doug, you've convinced me that there should be an entire "Drummer Some Cha Cha Cha" show on the stream. Perhaps Thursday at 3?

9:25am melinda:

hi all

9:26am Doug Schulkind:

Webhamster Cha! Stanley Cha! stillb/p cha! bobdc cha! melinda cha!

9:28am Doug Schulkind:

If anyone ever recorded a cha cha cha cha, it would break the universe.

9:31am Stanley:

@bobdc: Accompanied by a Tea Dance eh?

9:40am Listener Gregory:

Lurking only today. Packing LPs for my move! They have not gotten lighter in the last 30 years.

9:41am Doug Schulkind:

I hope you have a moving experience, Listener Gregory.

9:41am Webhamster Henry:

This is such a Give The Drummer Some set.
Maybe you can get Steve Krinsky in to do a Hucklebuck show.

9:44am Uncle Michael:

I want them cha cha heels.

9:46am Mr C:

Jerry Blavat used "Sheba" as his music bed to hyperventilate the Geator with the Heater exhortation. An old Philly radio thing..

9:47am Listener Gregory:

Not sure about lying in your musical bed with you, Doug. I like you, but not in that way.

9:49am Listener Gregory:

My Fair Lady is Lerner & Loewe I believe.

9:52am Doug Schulkind:

Great minds music bed alike, Mr C!

9:52am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory
That is right. And it's why I eventually left the My Fair Lady tracks on the cutting room floor.

9:53am still b/p:

Vim and vigor in the river current! "Ol'"...hah! Not todayyyy!

9:53am bigplanetnoise:

Goooood morning! Is someone making coffee?

9:54am Doug Schulkind:

Triple espresso is brewing, my dear planeteer!

9:55am gina b:

Morning, everyone!

9:55am gina b:

I’m making coffee, bigplanetnoise!

9:56am gina b:

But Doug’s sounds more helpful!

9:56am Doug Schulkind:

Not gina b, THE gina b!

9:56am gina b:

Hahaha...the one and only!

9:58am Doug Schulkind:

gina b is no longer "the new guy"!

Starting tomorrow the Drummer Stream will have brand-new new show, FIVE MILES TO MIDNIGHT. It will air live from Melbourne, Australia. It will be on 7pm Saturday night (eastern time), which is 9am Sunday morning down under. Tune in for a special "sneak preview" show tomorrow, following Someday Matinee, at 7pm (ET).

🥁

9:58am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

The tea is brewed dark and rich, and i'm ready to Give The Drummer Some!!! Howdy, everyone!

10:00am Mayuko:

Good morning!!!

10:00am gina b:

That’s right! I get to hand off the baton now!

10:01am Doug Schulkind:

More Saturday royalty! It's Mayuko!

10:01am bigplanetnoise:

Gina’s movin’ on up the Drummer totem...

10:01am Doug Schulkind:

Hip hooray! It's Granny Spicy Tuna!

10:01am gina b:

Hi Mayuko!

10:03am hyde:

helllllooooo

10:04am Mayuko:

Hi Gina, no longer "the new guy"!

10:05am Doug Schulkind:

Hello, hyde ("the old guy")!

10:07am hyde:

cant i just be the distinguished guy?

10:07am Doug Schulkind:

Philly Joe Jones trading fours with Sonny Rollins. A perfect thing in the universe.

10:08am Doug Schulkind:

Just a touch of gray, hyde.

10:09am JtotheK:

Enjoying this tasty curry with the fringe topping! Hi Doug and all.

🥁

10:10am dutchtheo:

Sonny Rollins acquired the nickname "Newk" because of his facial resemblance to Brooklyn Dodgers star pitcher Don Newcombe.

10:11am Mr C:

Yusef's playing is luminous here...perfect.

10:13am Doug Schulkind:

@JtotheK
Hey chum, good to see ya!

@dutchtheo
And they looked strikingly alike!

@Mr C
Always and forever my favorite.

10:13am gina b:

This is lovely.

10:13am Doug Schulkind:

Bernard McKinney is soloing here on... euphonium.

10:17am hyde:

putting the hammer down!

10:20am Listener Gregory:

Dexter Gordon would often recite the lyrics to a standard before playing it. He felt that knowing the words should influence your playing.
Back to lurking!

10:20am Linda Lee:

beautiful! i hear some of my favorite music behind you. hi, Doug!

10:21am Linda Lee:

better horribly late than never.

10:22am Listener Gregory:

Must be said that the Ashby is also pretty wonderful.

Lurking!

10:23am Doug Schulkind:

Linda "never horrible" Lee!

10:23am Linda Lee:

i purchased the 'afroharping' disc this past winter. superb.

10:24am Doug Schulkind:

Dorothy Ashby was a radio DJ for a while back in Detroit!

10:24am Linda Lee:

well thanks, Kiddo! same to you.

10:25am Linda Lee:

wow, i'd love hearing some of her sets!

🥁

10:27am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

Music to do genealogy by? Well, it's working for me. Good to see you, Linda Lee!

10:28am Linda Lee:

good seeing you too, Granny! :-)
i'm pretty sure that some of this music reached me in the spirit realm & i thought, yes, let's give this human thing a whirl. (july 1960, nyc)

10:29am chresti at work in Griffith Park:

Good morning

10:30am Doug Schulkind:

How's the terra firma, chresti?! Not so firma I gather.

10:31am chresti at work in Griffith Park:

A little wobbly

10:34am melinda:

@Linda Afroharping is on my long long list of music to get.

10:34am hyde:

i love both of these sets to pieces

10:34am Linda Lee:

it's readily available from discogs! i was pleasantly surprised. every track is a gem.

10:35am Doug Schulkind:

@hyde
Could've gone for 10 hours. (Don't tempt me.)

10:39am Linda Lee:

i'm now convinced that i need wifi more than i need indoor plumbing. this is helpful to know. thanks, Doug!

10:39am Doug Schulkind:

It's sort of cheating playing "All the Things You Are." It is one of the most recorded jazz standards in history. I selected it (a) Because it's a Jerome Kern/Oscar Hammerstein collaboration, and (b) It's so wonderful to hear Anthony Braxton tackle such a traditional evergreen number. Oh and (c) Just listen.

10:41am Doug Schulkind:

Of course the "Anthony Braxton playing jazz standards" trope is pretty old hat, but I have never had a problem with old hats.

10:41am Linda Lee:

this take is hardly cheating :-D

10:42am chresti at home making coffee:

I missed the cha cha
The earthquake we felt yesterday was the biggest of many, little earthquakes out in Death Valley.

10:43am Linda Lee:

wow! had no clue! what did it measure, chresti?

10:43am Doug Schulkind:

Be safe, chresti!

10:43am hyde:

gotta tear myself away from this beautifulness to go do some shopping. thanks for the cool tunes! hopefully back for some Hinky.

10:44am Linda Lee:

still can't forget my first earthquake ~ on the beach in malibu, 1964. like riding an elephant on my stomach!

10:45am Doug Schulkind:

My favorite clothing sale?

BIKINIS — HALF OFF!

(I kid)

10:46am Linda Lee:

but they're already half off, Doug! :-D

10:47am Linda Lee:

lucky you! ;-)

10:48am chresti:

It was 6. something
earthquaketrack.com...

10:48am Doug Schulkind:

The first time I was ever in California (summer 1980), I experienced an earthquake, was evacuated from a brush fire, and saw in flight (a, then, impossibly rare) condor. All within the first 24 hours.

10:48am Linda Lee:

wow!

10:49am Linda Lee:

and wow!

10:50am Doug Schulkind:

Michael Ray on trumpet here with Sun Ra.

10:51am Ike:

Hello all you warlocks, bird worshippers, harlots, remote drones, saplings, hooting owls, jazz tarts, and potato-lickers! How's it dangling?

10:51am Linda Lee:

fabulous.

10:51am Doug Schulkind:

The next day, I went to Rhino Records. Now THAT was amazing.

10:51am melinda:

I slept through two minor rumblings of small earthquakes happening in New York state and felt disappointed both times. Then we had one nearby, I think it was a 4, here in Maine and it freaky. I thought my furnace was about to explode and later found out others thought the same thing about theirs. Confused Mainers!

10:52am Doug Schulkind:

Sun Ra is playing piano and Crumar Mainman organ simultaneous here, I believe.

10:52am Doug Schulkind:

@melinda
You're in Maine?! I will be on Deer Isle in August!

10:53am Dean:

1980, Rhino Records...those were the days.

10:55am Doug Schulkind:

Hey-O, it's Dean!

10:56am Linda Lee:

early '80s was some days, for sure.

11:01am Webhamster Henry:

I would definitely do showtunes - industrials, ephemerals (that is, tunes worked into otherwise non musical works) and - yes - operetta and opera!

11:02am Linda Lee:

sorry i missed the cha cha set! my parents often brought me along to new york's copacabana rather than trust a babysitter, as a newborn. they checked me with the coats! heard lots of amazing latin music live then, for sure.

11:04am gina b:

Thanks for the plug, Doug!

11:04am Linda Lee:

music prohibition of any kind as an fmu policy is silly!

🥁

11:04am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

more clues into the fascinating puzzle of Linda Lee!

🥁

11:04am Brian in UK:

Hello Doug and funsters.
Just got my chainswaw back from the repairers who made it necessary for there to be a repair.

11:05am Dean:

Hey, repairers gotta work!

11:05am Linda Lee:

that piece might explain a few things for sure :-D

🥁

11:05am Brian in UK:

@mauri if you are there. How is the job in Tampere going?

11:08am Doug Schulkind:

"Just got my chainsaw back from the shop" sounds like a euphemism for solving the scourge of erectile dysfunction.

Greetings, dear brother Brian in UK!

11:09am Doug Schulkind:

@Linda Lee
There is no such policy. The only prohibition WFMU enforces is a prohibition against prohibitions. We are VERY strict about it.

11:09am Stanley:

The golden throated sounds of Africa.
Joy arises spontaneously

11:10am Linda Lee:

as it should be. beautiful.

11:10am Listener Gregory:

The moral cost of prohibitions is prohibitive.

Yes, yes, back to lurking, I promise.

11:11am Dean:

Then how come I *never* hear Don Felder's "Heavy Metal," huh?

11:12am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory

You've got the lurk of love
It's on your face
A lurk that time can't erase
Baby be mine, tonight

11:12am Linda Lee:

that's definitely true of punitive drug policy, Listener Gregory!

11:14am Doug Schulkind:

@Stanley
Spontaneously arising joy is my general aim.

🥁

11:15am Brian in UK:

Two words to send your heart afluttering Orchestra Poly-Rythmo.

11:15am Dean:

"Spontaneously arising joy," a.k.a. "getting one's chainsaw back from the shop"

🥁

11:16am Brian in UK:

Spontaneously arising joy and repaired chainsaws. Some connection.

11:17am Linda Lee:

honest though, there's nothing like a well-functioning chainsaw when ya need one. yes, there is joy.

11:17am Doug Schulkind:

Best damn audience in the known universe!

11:18am Linda Lee:

downed tree in the driveway? happy chainsaw time!

11:18am Dean:

Yes, sometimes a chainsaw is just a chainsaw.

11:18am Linda Lee:

especially if your car's on the wrong side of it.

11:20am fleep:

Endless line of love tanks greetings

🥁

11:20am Brian in UK:

Funnily enough I have been donated another chainsaw. Not started for four years but a bit of juice, a few yanks and it fired up.

11:20am Ike:

@Dean, the only way to go with Don Felder is to combine him with chainsaws.

11:20am Doug Schulkind:

fleep we salute you!

11:21am Jeff g.:

Wait — did I miss TWO jazz sets?? Ye gods.

🥁

11:22am Brian in UK:

Biggest selling album so I believe The Eagles Greatest Bits.

11:22am Linda Lee:

wow! folks here are *rarely* donated a working chainsaw. they tend to be hoarded.

🥁

11:24am Brian in UK:

Linda so true I was shocked when it started. Love the crackle of a two stroke but it does not beat the throb of the Howard 350 rotivator.

11:24am fleep:

chainsaws are ok, but a reciprocating saw loves u back

11:26am melinda:

@Doug I live in Portland. Wave when you're passing through next month!

11:27am Linda Lee:

love the fact that you love the sounds!

🥁

11:27am Brian in UK:

Whatever happened to elbow grease?

11:28am Doug Schulkind:

@melinda
We drive right past! Will wave frantically!

@Jeff G
Hope that makes up for my no-jazz transgression the other Friday.

11:28am Doug Schulkind:

Greetings, Ike! I almost forgot to say!

11:29am northguineahills:

The gif guy is giving Herbie Mann a run for his money....

11:30am Linda Lee:

do believe elbow grease has been deemed unhealthy in the common imagination. what fools these mortals be.

🥁

11:31am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

@Doug: all the best folx gather 'round the best host!

11:32am Listener Gregory:

Here's lurking at you, kid.
(Unfortunately, that's what got me arrested the last time.)

11:32am Doug Schulkind:

Push push, northguineahills!

11:33am Doug Schulkind:

@Granny Spicy Tuna
Back atcha, pal!

11:33am Uncle Michael:

hey, bo diddley

11:34am Uncle Michael:

Top of the hour...Hinky Dinky Time...unless you have other, better plans.

www.wfmu.org...

11:37am Michael 98145:

Hope everyone had a safe and sane 4th.

🥁

11:37am Brian in UK:

Doug, just got the swag, will listen to yours when the sun is lower.

Oh and it is official that daughter 1b is due in Jan.

11:39am Doug Schulkind:

Welcome welcome, Michael 98145!

11:40am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
When the sun gets lower, the joy rises spontaneously. Also, yaaaaay!

11:42am Mr C:

This is such a great record! Rafaul Saadiq slyly borrowed it for a song..

11:43am Doug Schulkind:

Uncle Michael is a good man, but he is not Uncle Michael Goodman. Nevertheless, his stupendous HINKY DINKY TIME radio show is up next on the Drummer Stream.

Playlist here: wfmu.org...

🥁

11:43am Brian in UK:

@Mr C really enjoyed Tony, Toni Tone's music especially Sons of Soul.

🥁

11:46am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

Uncle Michael: there is no time like Hinky Dinky Time! I get to jump in right from the start today! Wheee!

11:46am Uncle Michael:

Lucky Granny!

11:50am Michael 98145:

thanks again, Doug S

11:50am Doug Schulkind:

Lucky Granny was the name of my first band in high school

11:51am Listener Gregory:

Lurky Gregory was mine.

11:52am Mr C:

Great show Doug. Thank you, as always...

11:52am Dean:

My first band in high school was Doug & the Schoolkids, I kid you not.

11:52am Uncle Michael:

Mine was the New York Philharmonic. I played washboard.

11:53am chresti:

I like bandsaws

11:53am Doug Schulkind:

@Mr C
It is my abiding pleasure, Sir!

11:53am Uncle Michael:

how many fingers do you have, chresti?

11:54am Doug Schulkind:

@chresti
Wear your safety goggles!

11:54am Listener Gregory:

Concert tuning of the washboard is different from pop tuning, no?

11:54am Uncle Michael:

Yes, I tuned to middle R.

11:56am Uncle Michael:

Inell Young is Neil Young's dyslexic sister.

11:56am Doug Schulkind:

Only a badass would cover this tune, with a falsetto no less. BAD ASS.

11:56am chresti:

All 10. Franco is missing part of a thumb, however, thanks to a table saw

11:58am Sem:

Thanks, Mr. Doug. See you and all next time.

11:58am chresti:

I have used jigsaws the most, don't have a bandsaw

11:58am Dean:

A Dead tribute band recently played the club around the corner from us. The band name? Jerry's Middle Finger.

11:58am Uncle Michael:

Thanks Doug. You all know where to find me...

11:59am rw:

Morning! I once knew a guy who owned a T-shirt factory. He said you never hire a fabric cutter who has all their fingers because it means they're inexperienced.

11:59am chresti:

Thanks Doug, see ya later!

11:59am rw:

And Thank you Doug!!

🥁

12:01pm Brian in UK:

Lost the top of my right middle finger in the timing chain of my old BSA.

12:02pm Doug Schulkind:

Thank you thank you thank you, one and all. That was some good clean fun! Especially the chainsaw part!

🥁

12:03pm dutchtheo:

Thanks Doug!

12:09pm Listener Gregory:

Great show, Doug. I was lurking and couldn't say so in time. Lurking properly takes all of your attention.
