listener james from westwood:
i like this story for its potential to vex fundamentalists. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 5:55pm
Doug Schulkind:
Pittsburgh had its storms earlier today. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 5:56pm
Doug Schulkind:
That story reminds me of that late great record story Rocks In Your Head. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 5:58pm
glenn:
hmmmmmm. what doesn't vex fundamentalists? | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:00pm
Andy S.:
Returned Sunday to NYC after my first visit to Memphis in over 30 years. Heard O.V. Wright on the car radio (WDIA, 1070 AM) and Rev. Al Green preaching at his Full Gospel Tabernacle Church. Good God-if-there-is-one, y'all! | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:00pm
listener james from westwood:
the governor of texas! | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:01pm
listener james from westwood:
(that is, what doesn't vex fundamentalists, in re: glenn) i'll go with the rev. green and kevin nutt on thursdays over rick perry! | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:05pm
Doug Schulkind:
Ah, O.V. Wright! The poor soul was to gospel-ly for the soul set and too soul-ly for the gospel set. Never got stuffed in the right square hole. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:15pm
Doug Schulkind:
Next up: A bizarre duet with a tabla player and...Buddy Rich! | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:15pm
ndbob:
Heya Doug and everyone! | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:16pm
ndbob:
Saw that story Glenn... very interesting. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:17pm
listener james from westwood:
evening, ndbob! | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:17pm
glenn:
it's very cool. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:18pm
Doug Schulkind:
Hi ndbob, Are you back home yet, or still roadtripping? | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:20pm
ndbob:
I'm in Baltimore for a couple more weeks.. then the long drive home. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:21pm
ndbob:
Scheduled to go record shopping tomorrow with Gary Mitchell (Levine) and record shows this weekend and next. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:23pm
Doug Schulkind:
Ah, Baltimore. Most people think I'm from Baltimore (and I wish I was). | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:24pm
ndbob:
it's nice to come back and visit for a month - don't think I'd want to live here again though. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:27pm
Doug Schulkind:
At least the Orioles have me well-prepared for being a Pirates fan. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:28pm
Doug Schulkind:
This is Colin Walcott on sitar, by the way. Just thought you'd wanna know. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:29pm
ndbob:
That they do:). | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:31pm
glenn:
yeah, the pirates have kinda sucked for the last ten games. if the blue jays still had roy halladay (and a bullpen) they'd be killing the a.l. east. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:34pm
glenn:
or maybe not, but it's great to see my team is oh so close to being great again. now if we just had a nice ballpark. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:38pm
listener james from westwood:
if you rebuild that park, don't use the contractors they used in the bronx. apparently moneys were paid to overlook inspections. allegedly. so they say. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:40pm
glenn:
oh hell, building inspectors everywhere are prepared to look the other way for enough chai. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:41pm
Brian in UK:
Hello erverone from bruised and bluddy UK. Someone mention O V Wright? There can never be peace while there are still troubled souls like him in the ether. Doug, does L Shankar feature on your radar? | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:42pm
Doug Schulkind:
The ball park in Pittsburgh is stunning. Maybe the most beautiful ever. For the last few months, at least (previous 10 games notwithstanding), you could even watch the game. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:43pm
Brian in UK:
Doug NOTHWITHSTANDING thought I had the copyright on that one!! | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:43pm
Doug Schulkind:
Greetings Brian, I've yet to develop a great affection for Shankar. There's still time, of course. I'm, um, young. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:45pm
glenn:
younger than some of us, anyway. it kinda freaks me out that i'm older than THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:46pm
Brian in UK:
Brother glenn give us a joke and forget the age crap. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:48pm
glenn:
see, ya tell one good joke, and that's all people remember you for. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:48pm
Doug Schulkind:
Next up is a tune by Shankar. Shankar Jaikishan that is. It is described thusly on the record jacket—"Raga Todi: This morning melody depicts a serene emotion with a tinge of pathos in it." | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:49pm
Doug Schulkind:
Can't you just taste the pathos? | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:50pm
glenn:
kinda tastes like butter chicken. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:51pm
Brian in UK:

Doug Schulkind:

|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:55pm
listener james from westwood:

|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:57pm
listener james from westwood:
that thatcher fact is the second oddest invention story i've heard. first would be the fact that legendary voice man paul winchell got the 1st patent for an artificial heart. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 6:58pm
Brian in UK:

|
Tue. 8/9/11 7:03pm
Brian in UK:

Hey Doug, trouble played the T.K. Ramamoorthy earlier. Small world. | |
|
Tue. 8/9/11 7:12pm
Doug Schulkind:
Thankfully there is enough T.K. Ramamoorthy to around. What a revelation that record is. Wow! | |
|
Wed. 8/10/11 3:34pm
math baps:
beautiful set is there a way to get a high quality-esk listening? | |
|
Wed. 8/10/11 3:40pm
Doug S.:
@math baps This listening via the pop-up player is the highest quality version available. WFMU has nearl 12 years' worth of all its programming archived. Saving files larger than this would take up too much space. Cheers. | |
