Wow, I had NO idea Nick Drake was from the late 60's and 70's. He was on the Garden State soundtrack, I though he was more recent. |

why? why? when it is Jazz, do folks feel the need to name all the players?? |

![]() @ngh and diciassette: my only rooting interest is for any team that can get France eliminated. Wins for France mean happy drunks smashing things to celebrate. Losses mean angry drunks smashing things to blow off steam. The later the round, the worse it gets |

What I love about Fabio and his presence and broadcast on WFMU is his ability to and insistence in saying fuck you to the functions and forms our culture dishes up for consumption. Thank you and love from Burlington VT | |

![]() This was sampled to great effect by L'Orange for a recent Armand Hammer remix: soundcloud.com... |
![]() |
![]() Two reasons come to mind, 1) in a collective improvisation context, all the players are sharing authorship. 2) many jazz bands are quite fluid in terms of membership, perhaps only coming together once as a unit. So if you're intrigued by someone's playing, it's useful information to know who's who if you want to track down more music. |

Thu. 6/21/18 5:48pm
Drick Nake:
@ wolfg--yes, I think I have seen that. Not sure what it is--fear of "infection" or jealousy of some sort, I would imagine that it ultimately stems from some kind of insecurity. I got a kick out of the idea of the thief removing them from your feet. Velcro closures would make that easier I bet | |
