![]() Gran Prix is wonderful and horrible. |

![]() Admittedly, I have never seen it, but I do love Maurice Jarre's score. |

![]() The score is great. I have affection for the film because I like Formula 1 racing. They get the period right because it was made in period. But it's a soap opera and the F1 cars are really F3 cars in drag. I saw it in its original theatrical release, and probably 20 times since then. |

I just want the world to know that Sam Segal is a genuinely nice human being | |

![]() Cool it, @NotSamSegal. If the listeners start thinking I'm *shudders* "nice," I'll lose all the cool-guy-cred I've worked so hard to cultivate! |

![]() When I first volunteered for FMU in East Orange in the 90s, I was really happy to find that most of the DJs I met were genuinely really nice (especially Doug Schulkind, who was the wrangler of volunteers then), and not snobs who acted like they were too cool to meet a dorky listener. I've heard rumors that FMU DJs were snobbier and too cool to drool back in the 80s but don't know if that's true. |

Hullo Sam! Hallo UM! All FMU DJs are international men and women of mystery. |

Not Sam Segal:
Alright, fine, @SamSegal. Listeners, Sam Segal is a terrible person. The beat you hear right now? That's not a drum. That's Sam Segal kicking small children to express his disdain for humanity. He is, however a "cool guy" with lots of "cool-guy-cred." He's saving up his "cool-guy-cred" for the top-shelf prize at the arcade. He is now accepting donations of "cool-guy-cred," so if you have any lying around, send it Sam's way. Don't expect a thank-you note, though. Only nice guys send thank-you notes. | |

![]() @Ike and @G, welcome! |

![]() @NotSamSegal is right, folks. I'm hoping to win this giant bean bag chair www.ultimatesheepskin.com... With that chair, I'll have all the cool-guy-cred a guy could ever need, and then I can start being nice to everyone! |

Sam, the giant bean bag looks carnivorous, I'd throw it a steak first & see what happens. |

If you play any more 12-inchers, Sam, I will call you my ruler. | |

![]() Yep, gotta watch out for those carnivorous chairs: doctorwhogifs.tumblr.com... |

![]() Sorry, @Alf. I'll try to cool it on the foot-longs...after this next joint. |

This Cline is getting serious attention today, rightly so. Just listened to Clifford Brown and strings...same vibe. | |
![]() |
![]() Heya, @Dean. The Cline record is stunning...listened to it in its entirety today and picking a favorite song to play on air was damn tough. |

Dean:
I expect it'll be on my list at the next record store visit. Good to see that his brother is playing with him. Hey, Dean Martin...my namesake...really. | |

There's a great Winter & Winter record of popular music from Shanghai, Metropolis Shanghai: Showboat to China. | |
![]() |
![]() Ooo that sounds delightful, @Dean. Are these reinterpretations or original recordings? |
Mon. 8/8/16 11:35pm
Dean:
The notes state that the recordings were made in 2005, but I believe this refers in some cases to the digitization of the (likely fragile) analog sources. OTOH, some of the artists identified are of our time: Fumio Yasuda, Alan Bern, etc. In other words, it's a mix of old and new. Pretty stunning. | |
