Listener comments!
	♥ 8:52am Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Doug and all other listeners!
	♥ 8:55am Doug Schulkind: Early Andrews get the worms!
	🥁 ♥ 9:02am PAULS: some people some people
	🥁 ♥ 9:02am listener james from westwood: Here for the Drummer and the elephant's trunk show!
	🥁 ♥ 9:02am Irene Trudel: Good morning Doug and all listening in! Gently drumming on my bagel as you get started.
	♥ 9:03am Listener Gregory: Let's get on down and give the pachyderm.
	🥁 ♥ 9:03am bobdc: I'm going to be very careful who I namecheck in the comments today. Last week I mentioned Phil Schaap, and look how that turned out.
	🥁 ♥ 9:05am PAULS: dont check ME!!
	♥ 9:05am Pauly from Clifton: Good morning, Doug, folks!
	🥁 ♥ 9:06am doctorjazz: Hello Drummers!!! (bobdc-Schapp has been very ill for the past 4 years, cancer, has done little radio time, mostly rebroadcasting old shows).
	♥ 9:06am TDK60: Good morning.
	♥ 9:07am Listener Gregory: My mom used to get furious at me for smattering R&B at the table.
	♥ 9:07am Doug Schulkind: Womp! Womp! It's PAULS! listener james from westwood! Bageldrummer Trudel! Listener Gregory! Pauly from Clifton! doctorjazz (aka Stream Pappie)! TDK60!
	♥ 9:07am Doug Schulkind: Hush hush, bobdc.
	♥ 9:10am Listener Gregory: What's the smatter?
	9:10am KWilde: Good morning Doug and fellow drummers!
	♥ 9:10am Doug Schulkind: "I gave on a ringless finger, out in the cold again." OUCH!
	♥ 9:11am Doug Schulkind: Howdy, KWilde!
	♥ 9:11am Listener Scott: Even if the 1940s jazz isn't a kind-of tribute Phil Schaap, raising a glass anyway.
	♥ 9:12am Doug Schulkind: Amazing Ray Charles number, next.
	♥ 9:13am Doug Schulkind: Ray Charles is 20 years old here.
	♥ 9:14am Listener Scott: Voice is still distinctively his but also so different--so much character would soon be added.
	♥ 9:15am Doug Schulkind: That Ray Charles tune was written by Lloyd Glenn.
	♥ 9:17am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Scott And the wicked good piano wizardry for such a young chap!
	🥁 ♥ 9:18am listener Rey: Good morning all. Great R&B in this opening set but remember that all music smatters
	♥ 9:18am Andrew in Toronto: Has anyone seen this: www.nytimes.com...
	🥁 ♥ 9:19am holland oats: drumma! peoples!
	♥ 9:19am Listener Gregory: I recently listened to a 2-CD collection of Ray Charles music from that period. He was really trying to model himself after Charles Brown and other figures then. He didn't cut loose as we know him until the last few selections in the set.
	♥ 9:20am Doug Schulkind: @Andrew in Toronto I will commence reading that at 12:01. Thanks! Helloooooo, holland oooooats!
	🥁 ♥ 9:22am PAULS: @Andrew - 'Free Jazz' doc produced by Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore!
	♥ 9:22am Doug Schulkind: Top o' the morning, listener Rey!
	🥁 ♥ 9:24am PAULS: When you think about it, 25 is really not that many lies.
	🥁 ♥ 9:26am bobdc: Swingin' morning so far!
	♥ 9:26am Doug Schulkind: Pittsburgh is blessed to have a local, community-powered radio station that is completely independent and unaffiliated with NPR or other homogenizing influences. But Pittsburgh is cursed by the fact that this same station is the most boring purveyor of vanilla corporate dreck. What a waste. The tag line for this radio station, which they repeat on-air about 300 times a day: "Where the music matters."
	♥ 9:27am TDK60: Is that WYEP, Doug?
	♥ 9:27am Listener Gregory: Boy, this doesn't sound like the later Lenoir, does it?
	♥ 9:27am Doug Schulkind: @TDK60 Ayup.
	♥ 9:27am Listener Gregory: WFMU "Where the elephant rules!"
	🥁 ♥ 9:27am doctorjazz: That Free Jazz doc looks great (Gary Giddens quoted-haven't heard from him in a while). But imdb or the review don't say where it's available-theaters? Streaming? Not clear...
	♥ 9:28am TDK60: Doug, they used to be sorta like WFMU!! (Then somehow changed in the early '90s?)
	🥁 ♥ 9:29am listener Rey: @doctorjazz It looked like Amazon Prime video to me
	♥ 9:33am Webhamster Henry: Somehow Phil Schaap used a time machine to sneak into those session.
	♥ 9:33am Listener Scott: A friend told me he once heard him speculate on Bird Flight about the identity of a person shouting from the audience in a live recording of Parker playing some gig in Chicago; like, Schaap literally was trying to ID the shouter.
	🥁 ♥ 9:34am listener Rey: The GTDR stream just gets better and better. I think I listen to GTDR more than the regular station and I listen to 91.1 WFMU a lot
	♥ 9:34am Webhamster Henry: On KCR since 1970!
	🥁 ♥ 9:34am doctorjazz: I met Schapp once at WKCR (I had come up once to co-host Sid Gribbitz's Tuesday morning show). Phil arrived for his 8:20 Bird Filght, and immediately quoted stats for Bill "Moose" Skowron, the old Yankee 1st basement (my last name is Skowron). He had this photographic memory...amazing!
	♥ 9:35am Andrew in Toronto: @doctorjazz Thanks for the anecdote.
	9:36am alanr: Phil Schapp was like an astrophysicist who dissected jazz recordings into sub-atomic particles. We'll miss his voice and observations.
	♥ 9:36am Webhamster Henry: @listener Rey .. and on the Sheena stream yesterday, Phil X. Milstein, the Phil Schaap of song-poem records, played 3 hours of Song Poems and sat in on the chat board.
	🥁 ♥ 9:36am listener james from westwood: Good on ya for calling in. At least he owned it.
	♥ 9:36am Listener Gregory: Sadly, Phil Schaap never ascertained exactly where Charlie Parker got his replacement reed during the Savoy session of Feb. 12, 1939, the same date as Dizzy Gillespie's parents' wedding anniversary. It may have been at Roy's Music Shop, which was then on 41st St, although it later moved to 39th St. Roy moved to Florida in 1961 and sadly died in 1969. But that perhaps is not entirely to the point.
	🥁 ♥ 9:37am βrian: Another gorgeous day. Good morning.
	🥁 ♥ 9:37am listener Rey: I was into Phil's deep dives and subjected my family to Birdflight on our morning commutes. We loved whenever Salt Peanuts came on. My kids can now recognize Bird tunes and bebop licks
	🥁 ♥ 9:37am PAULS: @Listener Gregory: exactly! heh
	🥁 ♥ 9:37am doctorjazz: LG, : -) You nailed one of his shows!
	♥ 9:38am Listener Scott: @Listener Gregory -- that's gold.
	♥ 9:38am Doug Schulkind: Hello, gorgeous βrian! And welcome, extremely handsome Webhamster Henry!
	♥ 9:39am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory That makes me wanna cry.
	🥁 ♥ 9:40am doctorjazz: In his later shows, he was obviously very upset at the lack of basic jazz knowledge the youngin's have (I think he did some teaching at Columbia). As he put it, in the 50's and 60's, even if you weren't a jazz fan, you would have heard of Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, not so with the crop of young students now. You could hear it really riled him.
	🥁 ♥ 9:40am Jeff Golick: Hi. Re that Fire Music doc, @doc, it's up at the Film Forum; opens today! filmforum.org...
	♥ 9:41am Doug Schulkind: @alanr Your comment makes me think of the wonderful music/composer/neuroscientist Dave Soldier. Soldier, who was behind the fabulous Thai Elephant Orchetra recordings. (One of the performers is shown in today's playlist graphic.)
	🥁 ♥ 9:42am doctorjazz: Thanks for the link, Jeff G (didn't make sense the Times would review it, but it wasn't playing anywhere). Will try to get to it at some point, report in...
	♥ 9:42am Doug Schulkind: @listener Rey The Drummer Stream is vying for total airwave hegemony. Or at least harmony.
	🥁 ♥ 9:43am bobdc: When an important jazz person died in the last 30 or so years, my wife always said "wake up Phil Schaap! Put on a pot of coffee for him! KCR has an emergency artist marathon to run!"
	🥁 ♥ 9:43am Jeff Golick: I'm not sure if I'm up for an in-person movie just yet. My reintroduction to polite society has been going very slowly. (I watched a Mary Halvorson live stream last night rather than travel the mile to see it in person.)
	♥ 9:44am Doug Schulkind: @TDK60 I never knew WYEP until I arrived in Pittsburgh in 2010. It's been blaaaand and boooooring for as long as I've been here.
	♥ 9:45am Doug Schulkind: @bobdc WKCR's birthday and memorial broadcasts were legendary and essential listening.
	🥁 ♥ 9:45am βrian: From time to time, we peek through the hegemonies to see what the neighbors are doing.
	♥ 9:45am Listener Gregory: @Jeff, I think I would risk it all for Mary Halvorson.
	♥ 9:46am Doug Schulkind: And those extended broadcasts were 100% Phil.
	♥ 9:46am Doug Schulkind: There's the Give the Drummer Radio's new tagline: "We'd risk it all for Mary Halvorson."
	🥁 ♥ 9:46am listener james from westwood: @Jeff It's so intensely tempting to hit the Film Forum for what looks like a remedial 30th-anniversary showing of Goodfellas starting today thru later this month, esp. because I'd have to show my vax card, but I won't do well if I catch this shit. May also have to nix Many Saints of Newark in October unless case counts drop massively between then and now. And this is in "safer states" like NY and NJ.
	♥ 9:47am Doug Schulkind: Also, HELLO JEFF GOLICK!
	🥁 ♥ 9:48am doctorjazz: I'd love to catch Halvorson again, I'd go in person. (I'm OK with restaurants and indoor spots in NY now that immunizations/testing are being required. Though I have gone back to putting my mask on indoors when shopping or other places it can be done)
	♥ 9:48am TDK60: Doug, I used to live down in Morgantown. WYEP was great to hear when it was still wild, eclectic. We could pick it up with a good antenna or cable.
	♥ 9:48am Listener Gregory: @doctorj, ditto
	🥁 ♥ 9:49am Jeff Golick: @ljfw: I hear you. The hits just keep coming. And by hits, I mean breakthrough cases.
	🥁 ♥ 9:50am Jeff Golick: (I should probably add that this just plays into my natural tendency to stay home and do nothing and talk to no one.)
	♥ 9:51am Doug Schulkind: @TDK60 I actually went down to WYEP when I first got here. I passed their little screening test and was approved to do fill-in show, but I just couldn't go through with it. Happily, the Drummer Stream just started growing exponentially and it turned out I didn't have time for any extra radio.
	♥ 9:51am StringOFperils: Jazz needs a 20 year old 'influencer' on Instagram, or whatever flavor-of-the-month platform has flickered into noticablity, but it will still be all about the superficial, the 'optics'. Most art for the last 40 years is talked about in terms of units sold and for how much and who was there and what they wore. You folks need to carry the torch for jazz now; there always has to be some kind of lantern in the darkness.
	♥ 9:51am Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Jeff!
	🥁 ♥ 9:53am doctorjazz: Good NY Times article on risk of "breakthrough" infections... www.nytimes.com...
	🥁 ♥ 9:55am Jeff Golick: Gosh, @Doug, the what-if-Doug-left-WFMU-for-WYEP timeline is troubling to consider. Thanks for the NYT link, @doc.
	♥ 9:56am TDK60: (Veering a bit off topic) Doug in the '70s there was a commercial Pittsburgh station, WYDD. It had commercials but very few. It played rock, prog stuff. It had an almost non-commercial feel. (I think there's a website on Pgh music that WYDD is in.) Just more Pgh radio history.
	♥ 9:56am Doug Schulkind: @Jeff Golick That would be like saying, what if Doug left his body to go live in an iron lung.
	♥ 9:57am Listener Gregory: Doug, an iron lung makes a great metallophone. I think you would have adapted.
	🥁 ♥ 9:58am chresti: Morning Doug and drummers!
	♥ 9:58am Doug Schulkind: From what I gather, Pittsburgh has a rich radio history. After I moved here, someone, possibly it was Ira Kaplan, called me the Porky Chedwick of WFMU.
	🥁 ♥ 9:58am Jeff Golick: (Also, hello, @Andrew in Toronto!)
	♥ 9:58am Doug Schulkind: G'morning, chresti!
	♥ 9:59am Doug Schulkind: Iron Pancreas was the name of my first band in high school
	♥ 9:59am TDK60: I think there were other similar commercial stations (more into music; not many commercials) around the country in the '70s. By the '80s they'd disappeared or changed to worse. \| Morning chresti.
	🥁 ♥ 10:00am βrian: Rather than more cowbell, I need more tahini. (In my hummus, for example.) Lots of tahini.
	🥁 ♥ 10:00am Uncle Michael: That first note sounded just like Evan Funk Davies' social media airhorn.
	🥁 ♥ 10:01am chresti: Morning TDK60 \\ //
	🥁 ♥ 10:01am PAULS: OMG I went to high school with Doug and I wanted in Iron Pancreas SO BAD! By the way, IP was Doug's 43rd "first band" in high school.
	♥ 10:02am StringOFperils: Doug was the John Zorn of grade 9.
	♥ 10:03am Doug Schulkind: Social Media Airhorn was the...
	🥁 ♥ 10:03am PAULS: I only met him in 10th grade (9th was "junior high" where we were spawned). By that time, he was Ginger Baker.
	🥁 ♥ 10:04am PAULS: 44th "first band" in high school
	10:04am Funky16Corners: Good morning! School is in session, and Friday mornings are open again!
	♥ 10:05am StringOFperils: Glad someone else decided to track all of Doug's first band names. I was going to once, but decided instead on painting the passports brown.
	🥁 ♥ 10:07am PAULS: @StringOFperils Doug was a busy guy back then, much in demand. Keep on painting!
	🥁 ♥ 10:07am Brian in UK: Hello Doug & groovy guzzlers of the top sounds.
	🥁 ♥ 10:10am PAULS: Mary Lou GENIUS!! <3<3<3 morning, Brian
	🥁 ♥ 10:10am Uncle Michael: If you didn't wallow in that oeuvre with Doug, the yolks on you.
	♥ 10:10am Listener Gregory: For contractual reasons, please refer to me as "Listener Carlos" for the purposes of today's show.
	♥ 10:11am Doug Schulkind: @Funk6y16Corners You are the busiest man in dadbusiness! Welcome welcome, Brian in UK!
	🥁 ♥ 10:12am Brian in UK: Hello PAULS.
	♥ 10:12am Doug Schulkind: I'm egg static that you're here, Uncle Michael.
	♥ 10:13am StringOFperils: Oeuf! Right in the spatula.
	🥁 ♥ 10:15am Brian in UK: Four eggs so far today from our chooks. Sonny Rollins was 90something this week.
	🥁 ♥ 10:16am βrian: That's un oeuf, @StringOfPerils! Ça suffit !
	♥ 10:16am Doug Schulkind: @StringOFperils Check out the title of this radio show I aired in April 1998: www.wfmu.org...
	♥ 10:17am Doug Schulkind: Nineteenfreakingninety-eight!
	♥ 10:18am StringOFperils: Prying the future off the griddle of stuckness. Is that a word?
	♥ 10:20am Doug Schulkind: Echoes of Ornette's "Lonely Woman" in that cadenza right there. Cool.
	♥ 10:21am Listener Gregory: If Rahsaan were a member of your quartet, would that make it a quintet? Or more?
	🥁 ♥ 10:22am PAULS: Strut it. I love this track!
	♥ 10:23am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory Tough putting him on the guest list. He'd have to get a Rahsaan plus 3 or 4 at the door.
	♥ 10:26am Doug Schulkind: Outrageously edgy stop-time rhythm on this number.
	🥁 ♥ 10:26am Brian in UK: There is also Marcel Duchamp's Bride Stripped Bare by her Spatulas, Even.
	♥ 10:27am Listener Gregory: @Brian in UK, R Mutt you be kidding!
	♥ 10:27am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK Now there's an image.
	♥ 10:29am StringOFperils: Dude Repainting a Bookcase?
	🥁 ♥ 10:29am Brian in UK: We used to play a game called Guess the Kitchen Equipment, well it passed the time whilst washing up. You hit someone on the backside with said equipment and they have to guess what it is. Fun Huh.
	🥁 ♥ 10:30am Brian in UK: LG often wonder about that name.
	♥ 10:30am Doug Schulkind: Paul Chambers on bass. No one bowed like he bowed.
	🥁 ♥ 10:33am Brian in UK: Has there even been an Edward Kienholtz retrospective over your way?
	🥁 ♥ 10:37am doctorjazz: This String/Sax combo rocks!
	🥁 ♥ 10:39am βrian: "Deep fryer!"
	♥ 10:39am WR: <3 ❤ Billy Bang Much respect Frank Lowe. Did read all the Phil Schaap comments. Interesting unique powerful addition to radio and documenting of the music he loved. Ok, back to the work screen.
	♥ 10:39am Doug Schulkind: Now everyone's just a little Zoom tipsy. Amirite?!?!
	🥁 ♥ 10:40am Brian in UK: Rice Cooker!
	♥ 10:40am Doug Schulkind: @WR I've always thought that <3 looked like a milk cow tipped over.
	🥁 ♥ 10:41am Jeff Golick: Marion Brown's birthday just happened, I think?
	♥ 10:41am Listener Gregory: You are truly digging deep with these obscure jazz cuts, Doug.
	🥁 ♥ 10:41am PAULS: Better than talkin out your ass... 3<
	♥ 10:41am northguineahills: 2001 was the last and only time I saw Billy Bang (at Stonewall)
	🥁 ♥ 10:42am βrian: For no reason, just thinking about Marian McPartland.
	♥ 10:44am Doug Schulkind: Well howdy, northguineahills!
	🥁 ♥ 10:44am doctorjazz: I think Dave Burrell is underappreciated, think he's teriffic!
	♥ 10:45am Doug Schulkind: @βrian Perhaps there are routes to thoughts of Marian McPartland coming from talk of Mary Lou Williams and Phil Schaap.
	♥ 10:45am WR: I dunno Doug, I just try to follow the lead of the innovative young people like Uncle Michael on technological communication matters.
	♥ 10:47am StringOFperils: @docjazz > Agreed. More terrific than ever. This is a big world of crap.
	🥁 ♥ 10:51am PAULS: You said "besotted"
	♥ 10:52am WR: That Roland Kirk recording was released on Mercury. I looked because I was not familiar with that recording and thought I had seen all his recordings on Atlantic, Had not seen the cover before, www.discogs.com... Very striking photo of Kirk on the cover.
	♥ 10:52am Listener Gregory: The sot is never far away in GTDS.
	♥ 10:53am Doug Schulkind: @WR Ah! Thanks for catching that! Not sure how I boneheaded that, but I did.
	♥ 10:55am Doug Schulkind: Surely the widest known of the "Soundz" bands from Ghana. Surely the result of having been championed by Hugh Masekela. Surely.
	♥ 10:55am StringOFperils: Hezbollah Soundz was never this funky.
	♥ 10:56am Doug Schulkind: @PAULS One of my go-to words. @StringOFperils I hear they really bombed in Israel. (I kid! I kid!)
	♥ 11:02am StringOFperils: Hah!
	♥ 11:03am Doug Schulkind: That was a long six minutes. I thought maybe I'd crossed a line.
	♥ 11:03am solo mon: Good morning Doug and drummer friends!
	11:04am rw: Good
	11:04am rw: morning!
	♥ 11:04am StringOFperils: Speaking of crossing a line....hi, solo mon!! :)

	♥ 11:05am solo mon: I cross so many lines it looks like cats cradles.
	♥ 11:07am StringOFperils: Last night's NiceScreamOscope was #1 with a ballet.
	♥ 11:07am Doug Schulkind: @solo mon It's a good idea to refrain from doing lines while crossing lines. Safety first!
	♥ 11:07am solo mon: Thanks Doug, such an honor to be asked! And thanks for your help :-) enjoying the jams this morning while i sip coffee.
	♥ 11:07am solo mon: LOL no lines before their times!

	🥁 ♥ 11:13am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): still getting caffeine in the system, not quite in tempo with this wonderful Bunzu Soundz
	♥ 11:13am solo mon: Get to work on the comment boards! These comments don’t comment themselves and remember… coffee is for commenters!

	🥁 ♥ 11:14am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): hadn't heckled Milstein in an eon or two…
	♥ 11:15am solo mon: Fun!
	🥁 ♥ 11:15am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Doug: you think I can lounge around with a rhythm like THIS coming through my sparklebust speakers?!?!?!? who needs caffeine?!

	♥ 11:17am StringOFperils: I've been in Savasana for 20 years.
	🥁 ♥ 11:17am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): solo mon, did you and that listener called Solo ever connect? I still think your idea to have them as a guest on your show is great!
	11:17am rw: solo mon, I got transfixed on that solo-scope last night and now I'm behind on work.
	♥ 11:17am Doug Schulkind: (Solo Hit was born Ohieirme.)
	🥁 ♥ 11:18am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): CHRESTIKINS! The day truly begins!
	♥ 11:18am Rich in Washington: Hola, Doug! Howdy doo, everybody!
	♥ 11:18am Doug Schulkind: @βrian Let me know when you're having leftovers and I'll be right over.
	🥁 ♥ 11:18am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): do not listen to Primal Eye Scream while operating heavy machinery
	🥁 ♥ 11:19am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Hey, Rich, my southern neighbor
	♥ 11:19am Doug Schulkind: Well ain't THAT Rich?! Hello, Rich in Washington!
	♥ 11:19am solo mon: Solo plus solo equals duo… a do over?
	♥ 11:19am Rich in Washington: Hiya, Mx. BB! How's things?
	🥁 ♥ 11:20am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) ⚧: Rich: It's a beautiful morning here on the island, gonna go get some world class ramen in the village later today, and then the last salmon seine of the season. How's the Lower Columbia today?
	♥ 11:21am Doug Schulkind: OK, this ain't cheating. Basabasa Experience was also known at different times as Basabasa Soundz. Proof: www.discogs.com...
	♥ 11:21am Rich in Washington: It's raining! Just a little bit. Yay!
	🥁 ♥ 11:22am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) ⚧: Doug: these bands all seem to be a swarm of Hits and Soundz!
	🥁 ♥ 11:22am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) ⚧: how did this phenomenon happen???
	♥ 11:22am solo mon: rw - Hi! And thanks for scoping, I’m sooo glad you transfixed that was the intention:-)
	♥ 11:22am spodiodi: bitcoin price
	11:23am rw: Soundz amasing.
	♥ 11:23am spodiodi: oops -- that's not a web browser :-B apologies, Doug and everyone
	♥ 11:23am WR: elohay Mx Baba Bee and solo mon. The solo scope vids last night were great vids for music accompaniment. I watched for about 45 minutes last night while listening to the drummer stream. Since I had come in late, didn't notice that you had posted a vid play list early in the comments. Had to force myself away from the screen or I would have been primal ice scream hung over today.
	♥ 11:23am solo mon: Afro Disco feeling is perfect
	🥁 ♥ 11:23am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) ⚧: I think it's solo mon's fault, hypnotizing everyone, that the caffeine isn't quite bringing me up to speed.
	♥ 11:24am solo mon: It’s ok to blame your therapist, we are used to it.
	♥ 11:25am StringOFperils: Still pondering the ramifications of Porky Chedwick
	♥ 11:25am spodiodi: solo, that was indeed a great 'scope and undeniably solo mon style -- was wondering/guessing: did you choose all of the video? (i think you must have, but wanted to ask)
	♥ 11:26am solo mon: ‘The ramifications of porky cheswick’ sounds like a film from the 1970s
	♥ 11:26am Doug Schulkind: @Mx. Baba Bee I will explain in a few minutez.
	♥ 11:27am solo mon: I really love this one Doug
	♥ 11:28am StringOFperils: @solo > Sounds like a film from 70s Times Square
	🥁 ♥ 11:28am Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) ⚧: Doug: Cool! It took me a bleary moment to realize you were up to something!
	♥ 11:29am Franco Twinkie: Good morning all.

	🥁 ♥ 11:44am Stork: A belated hidee-ho, all!

	♥ 11:54am Doug Schulkind: @bobdc The story is about Mr. Fears himself. I don't know the story behind that particular number. Probably unissued because the master was damaged. (At least it sounded damaged.) Here is more info about Bobby Lee Fears than you ever need to know: www.sirshambling.com...

	♥ 12:02pm Doug Schulkind: That's funny, Listener Gregory, you don't look brandish! THANK YOU THANK YOU everyone for a great morning!!!!
	10:58am Daniel Manning: Hi I was just reminiscing with some band mates about an incident involving Bobby Lee Fears. I’d like to fill in some details myself, and in looking around saw your comments. It was a very wild episode for us. Especially with the connection there was to the rainbow wig/sports events guy: Roland Stewart Bobby hired my band to accompany him for a re-union show with Lester Maddox in the early 80s .Bobby’s 'manager' was the original John 3:16 guy with the multi-colored clown wig at ball games. We had a few rehearsals with BLF, but Maddox never came -then the gig night came at the Penta Hotel penthouse suite. They had publicized the event well, and all the tv stations were there, but Maddox never made the show due to illness. Bobby was recently out of prison, he’d said…for manslaughter. (For “shooting a man in the eye” in a jealous rage). Roland Stewart (the rainbow wig guy) was his finance man and always accompanied Bobby- Roland was getting money in the mail from supportive Christians around the country. He paid us in cash every rehearsal and before the performance. (It was all so shady seeming that we got paid up front always) I’ve finally seen clips of their routine from the 70’s (the guvna and Bobby), now that we have the internet. I never realized it would have been so racist. Thank God Maddox never showed up. We wound up playing for the whole show, while Bobby waited for Maddox to arrive. When he didn’t ever come, BLF got up and did a couple numbers, till the tv cameras started packing up and going home. Very strange. We heard a lot of great stories about their experiences though... and we'll always remember Bobby's famous line as he gathered us, (all of us were fairly bewildered about the whole thing), into a prayer circle beforehand: "Sweet Jesus, take us to Vegas"
	♥ 3:49am Doug Schulkind: @Daniel Manning Jawdropping stories! Thanks for sharing.

	🥁 ♥ 9:02am Irene Trudel: Good morning Doug and all listening in! Gently drumming on my bagel as you get started.
	♥ 9:03am Listener Gregory: Let's get on down and give the pachyderm.
	🥁 ♥ 9:03am bobdc: I'm going to be very careful who I namecheck in the comments today. Last week I mentioned Phil Schaap, and look how that turned out.
	🥁 ♥ 9:05am PAULS: dont check ME!!
	♥ 9:05am Pauly from Clifton: Good morning, Doug, folks!
	🥁 ♥ 9:06am doctorjazz: Hello Drummers!!! (bobdc-Schapp has been very ill for the past 4 years, cancer, has done little radio time, mostly rebroadcasting old shows).
	♥ 9:06am TDK60: Good morning.
	♥ 9:07am Listener Gregory: My mom used to get furious at me for smattering R&B at the table.
	♥ 9:07am Doug Schulkind: Womp! Womp! It's PAULS! listener james from westwood! Bageldrummer Trudel! Listener Gregory! Pauly from Clifton! doctorjazz (aka Stream Pappie)! TDK60!
	♥ 9:07am Doug Schulkind: Hush hush, bobdc.
	♥ 9:10am Listener Gregory: What's the smatter?
	9:10am KWilde: Good morning Doug and fellow drummers!
	♥ 9:10am Doug Schulkind: "I gave on a ringless finger, out in the cold again." OUCH!
	♥ 9:11am Doug Schulkind: Howdy, KWilde!
	♥ 9:11am Listener Scott: Even if the 1940s jazz isn't a kind-of tribute Phil Schaap, raising a glass anyway.
	♥ 9:12am Doug Schulkind: Amazing Ray Charles number, next.
	♥ 9:13am Doug Schulkind: Ray Charles is 20 years old here.
	♥ 9:14am Listener Scott: Voice is still distinctively his but also so different--so much character would soon be added.
	♥ 9:15am Doug Schulkind: That Ray Charles tune was written by Lloyd Glenn.
	♥ 9:17am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Scott And the wicked good piano wizardry for such a young chap!
	🥁 ♥ 9:18am listener Rey: Good morning all. Great R&B in this opening set but remember that all music smatters
	♥ 9:18am Andrew in Toronto: Has anyone seen this: www.nytimes.com...
	🥁 ♥ 9:19am holland oats: drumma! peoples!
	♥ 9:19am Listener Gregory: I recently listened to a 2-CD collection of Ray Charles music from that period. He was really trying to model himself after Charles Brown and other figures then. He didn't cut loose as we know him until the last few selections in the set.
	♥ 9:20am Doug Schulkind: @Andrew in Toronto I will commence reading that at 12:01. Thanks! Helloooooo, holland oooooats!
	🥁 ♥ 9:22am PAULS: @Andrew - 'Free Jazz' doc produced by Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore!
	♥ 9:22am Doug Schulkind: Top o' the morning, listener Rey!
	🥁 ♥ 9:24am PAULS: When you think about it, 25 is really not that many lies.
	🥁 ♥ 9:26am bobdc: Swingin' morning so far!
	♥ 9:26am Doug Schulkind: Pittsburgh is blessed to have a local, community-powered radio station that is completely independent and unaffiliated with NPR or other homogenizing influences. But Pittsburgh is cursed by the fact that this same station is the most boring purveyor of vanilla corporate dreck. What a waste. The tag line for this radio station, which they repeat on-air about 300 times a day: "Where the music matters."
	♥ 9:27am TDK60: Is that WYEP, Doug?
	♥ 9:27am Listener Gregory: Boy, this doesn't sound like the later Lenoir, does it?
	♥ 9:27am Doug Schulkind: @TDK60 Ayup.
	♥ 9:27am Listener Gregory: WFMU "Where the elephant rules!"
	🥁 ♥ 9:27am doctorjazz: That Free Jazz doc looks great (Gary Giddens quoted-haven't heard from him in a while). But imdb or the review don't say where it's available-theaters? Streaming? Not clear...
	♥ 9:28am TDK60: Doug, they used to be sorta like WFMU!! (Then somehow changed in the early '90s?)
	🥁 ♥ 9:29am listener Rey: @doctorjazz It looked like Amazon Prime video to me
	♥ 9:33am Webhamster Henry: Somehow Phil Schaap used a time machine to sneak into those session.
	♥ 9:33am Listener Scott: A friend told me he once heard him speculate on Bird Flight about the identity of a person shouting from the audience in a live recording of Parker playing some gig in Chicago; like, Schaap literally was trying to ID the shouter.
	🥁 ♥ 9:34am listener Rey: The GTDR stream just gets better and better. I think I listen to GTDR more than the regular station and I listen to 91.1 WFMU a lot
	♥ 9:34am Webhamster Henry: On KCR since 1970!
	🥁 ♥ 9:34am doctorjazz: I met Schapp once at WKCR (I had come up once to co-host Sid Gribbitz's Tuesday morning show). Phil arrived for his 8:20 Bird Filght, and immediately quoted stats for Bill "Moose" Skowron, the old Yankee 1st basement (my last name is Skowron). He had this photographic memory...amazing!
	♥ 9:35am Andrew in Toronto: @doctorjazz Thanks for the anecdote.
	9:36am alanr: Phil Schapp was like an astrophysicist who dissected jazz recordings into sub-atomic particles. We'll miss his voice and observations.
	♥ 9:36am Webhamster Henry: @listener Rey .. and on the Sheena stream yesterday, Phil X. Milstein, the Phil Schaap of song-poem records, played 3 hours of Song Poems and sat in on the chat board.
	🥁 ♥ 9:36am listener james from westwood: Good on ya for calling in. At least he owned it.
	♥ 9:36am Listener Gregory: Sadly, Phil Schaap never ascertained exactly where Charlie Parker got his replacement reed during the Savoy session of Feb. 12, 1939, the same date as Dizzy Gillespie's parents' wedding anniversary. It may have been at Roy's Music Shop, which was then on 41st St, although it later moved to 39th St. Roy moved to Florida in 1961 and sadly died in 1969. But that perhaps is not entirely to the point.
	🥁 ♥ 9:37am βrian: Another gorgeous day. Good morning.
	🥁 ♥ 9:37am listener Rey: I was into Phil's deep dives and subjected my family to Birdflight on our morning commutes. We loved whenever Salt Peanuts came on. My kids can now recognize Bird tunes and bebop licks
	🥁 ♥ 9:37am PAULS: @Listener Gregory: exactly! heh
	🥁 ♥ 9:37am doctorjazz: LG, : -) You nailed one of his shows!
	♥ 9:38am Listener Scott: @Listener Gregory -- that's gold.
	♥ 9:38am Doug Schulkind: Hello, gorgeous βrian! And welcome, extremely handsome Webhamster Henry!
	♥ 9:39am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory That makes me wanna cry.
	🥁 ♥ 9:40am doctorjazz: In his later shows, he was obviously very upset at the lack of basic jazz knowledge the youngin's have (I think he did some teaching at Columbia). As he put it, in the 50's and 60's, even if you weren't a jazz fan, you would have heard of Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, not so with the crop of young students now. You could hear it really riled him.
	🥁 ♥ 9:40am Jeff Golick: Hi. Re that Fire Music doc, @doc, it's up at the Film Forum; opens today! filmforum.org...
	♥ 9:41am Doug Schulkind: @alanr Your comment makes me think of the wonderful music/composer/neuroscientist Dave Soldier. Soldier, who was behind the fabulous Thai Elephant Orchetra recordings. (One of the performers is shown in today's playlist graphic.)
	🥁 ♥ 9:42am doctorjazz: Thanks for the link, Jeff G (didn't make sense the Times would review it, but it wasn't playing anywhere). Will try to get to it at some point, report in...
	♥ 9:42am Doug Schulkind: @listener Rey The Drummer Stream is vying for total airwave hegemony. Or at least harmony.
	🥁 ♥ 9:43am bobdc: When an important jazz person died in the last 30 or so years, my wife always said "wake up Phil Schaap! Put on a pot of coffee for him! KCR has an emergency artist marathon to run!"
	🥁 ♥ 9:43am Jeff Golick: I'm not sure if I'm up for an in-person movie just yet. My reintroduction to polite society has been going very slowly. (I watched a Mary Halvorson live stream last night rather than travel the mile to see it in person.)
	♥ 9:44am Doug Schulkind: @TDK60 I never knew WYEP until I arrived in Pittsburgh in 2010. It's been blaaaand and boooooring for as long as I've been here.
	♥ 9:45am Doug Schulkind: @bobdc WKCR's birthday and memorial broadcasts were legendary and essential listening.
	🥁 ♥ 9:45am βrian: From time to time, we peek through the hegemonies to see what the neighbors are doing.
	♥ 9:45am Listener Gregory: @Jeff, I think I would risk it all for Mary Halvorson.
	♥ 9:46am Doug Schulkind: And those extended broadcasts were 100% Phil.
	♥ 9:46am Doug Schulkind: There's the Give the Drummer Radio's new tagline: "We'd risk it all for Mary Halvorson."
	🥁 ♥ 9:46am listener james from westwood: @Jeff It's so intensely tempting to hit the Film Forum for what looks like a remedial 30th-anniversary showing of Goodfellas starting today thru later this month, esp. because I'd have to show my vax card, but I won't do well if I catch this shit. May also have to nix Many Saints of Newark in October unless case counts drop massively between then and now. And this is in "safer states" like NY and NJ.
	♥ 9:47am Doug Schulkind: Also, HELLO JEFF GOLICK!
	🥁 ♥ 9:48am doctorjazz: I'd love to catch Halvorson again, I'd go in person. (I'm OK with restaurants and indoor spots in NY now that immunizations/testing are being required. Though I have gone back to putting my mask on indoors when shopping or other places it can be done)
	♥ 9:48am TDK60: Doug, I used to live down in Morgantown. WYEP was great to hear when it was still wild, eclectic. We could pick it up with a good antenna or cable.
	♥ 9:48am Listener Gregory: @doctorj, ditto
	🥁 ♥ 9:49am Jeff Golick: @ljfw: I hear you. The hits just keep coming. And by hits, I mean breakthrough cases.
	🥁 ♥ 9:50am Jeff Golick: (I should probably add that this just plays into my natural tendency to stay home and do nothing and talk to no one.)
	♥ 9:51am Doug Schulkind: @TDK60 I actually went down to WYEP when I first got here. I passed their little screening test and was approved to do fill-in show, but I just couldn't go through with it. Happily, the Drummer Stream just started growing exponentially and it turned out I didn't have time for any extra radio.
	♥ 9:51am StringOFperils: Jazz needs a 20 year old 'influencer' on Instagram, or whatever flavor-of-the-month platform has flickered into noticablity, but it will still be all about the superficial, the 'optics'. Most art for the last 40 years is talked about in terms of units sold and for how much and who was there and what they wore. You folks need to carry the torch for jazz now; there always has to be some kind of lantern in the darkness.
	♥ 9:51am Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Jeff!
	🥁 ♥ 9:53am doctorjazz: Good NY Times article on risk of "breakthrough" infections... www.nytimes.com...
	🥁 ♥ 9:55am Jeff Golick: Gosh, @Doug, the what-if-Doug-left-WFMU-for-WYEP timeline is troubling to consider. Thanks for the NYT link, @doc.
	♥ 9:56am TDK60: (Veering a bit off topic) Doug in the '70s there was a commercial Pittsburgh station, WYDD. It had commercials but very few. It played rock, prog stuff. It had an almost non-commercial feel. (I think there's a website on Pgh music that WYDD is in.) Just more Pgh radio history.
	♥ 9:56am Doug Schulkind: @Jeff Golick That would be like saying, what if Doug left his body to go live in an iron lung.
	♥ 9:57am Listener Gregory: Doug, an iron lung makes a great metallophone. I think you would have adapted.
	🥁 ♥ 9:58am chresti: Morning Doug and drummers!
	♥ 9:58am Doug Schulkind: From what I gather, Pittsburgh has a rich radio history. After I moved here, someone, possibly it was Ira Kaplan, called me the Porky Chedwick of WFMU.
	🥁 ♥ 9:58am Jeff Golick: (Also, hello, @Andrew in Toronto!)
	♥ 9:58am Doug Schulkind: G'morning, chresti!
	♥ 9:59am Doug Schulkind: Iron Pancreas was the name of my first band in high school
	♥ 9:59am TDK60: I think there were other similar commercial stations (more into music; not many commercials) around the country in the '70s. By the '80s they'd disappeared or changed to worse. \| Morning chresti.
	🥁 ♥ 10:00am βrian: Rather than more cowbell, I need more tahini. (In my hummus, for example.) Lots of tahini.
	🥁 ♥ 10:00am Uncle Michael: That first note sounded just like Evan Funk Davies' social media airhorn.
	🥁 ♥ 10:01am chresti: Morning TDK60 \\ //
	🥁 ♥ 10:01am PAULS: OMG I went to high school with Doug and I wanted in Iron Pancreas SO BAD! By the way, IP was Doug's 43rd "first band" in high school.
	♥ 10:02am StringOFperils: Doug was the John Zorn of grade 9.
	♥ 10:03am Doug Schulkind: Social Media Airhorn was the...
	🥁 ♥ 10:03am PAULS: I only met him in 10th grade (9th was "junior high" where we were spawned). By that time, he was Ginger Baker.
	🥁 ♥ 10:04am PAULS: 44th "first band" in high school
	10:04am Funky16Corners: Good morning! School is in session, and Friday mornings are open again!
	♥ 10:05am StringOFperils: Glad someone else decided to track all of Doug's first band names. I was going to once, but decided instead on painting the passports brown.
	🥁 ♥ 10:07am PAULS: @StringOFperils Doug was a busy guy back then, much in demand. Keep on painting!
	🥁 ♥ 10:07am Brian in UK: Hello Doug & groovy guzzlers of the top sounds.

	🥁 ♥ 10:12am Brian in UK: Hello PAULS.

	♥ 10:13am StringOFperils: Oeuf! Right in the spatula.
	🥁 ♥ 10:15am Brian in UK: Four eggs so far today from our chooks. Sonny Rollins was 90something this week.
	🥁 ♥ 10:16am βrian: That's un oeuf, @StringOfPerils! Ça suffit !
	♥ 10:16am Doug Schulkind: @StringOFperils Check out the title of this radio show I aired in April 1998: www.wfmu.org...
	♥ 10:17am Doug Schulkind: Nineteenfreakingninety-eight!
	♥ 10:18am StringOFperils: Prying the future off the griddle of stuckness. Is that a word?
	♥ 10:20am Doug Schulkind: Echoes of Ornette's "Lonely Woman" in that cadenza right there. Cool.
	♥ 10:21am Listener Gregory: If Rahsaan were a member of your quartet, would that make it a quintet? Or more?
	🥁 ♥ 10:22am PAULS: Strut it. I love this track!
	♥ 10:23am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory Tough putting him on the guest list. He'd have to get a Rahsaan plus 3 or 4 at the door.
	♥ 10:26am Doug Schulkind: Outrageously edgy stop-time rhythm on this number.
	🥁 ♥ 10:26am Brian in UK: There is also Marcel Duchamp's Bride Stripped Bare by her Spatulas, Even.
	♥ 10:27am Listener Gregory: @Brian in UK, R Mutt you be kidding!
	♥ 10:27am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK Now there's an image.
	♥ 10:29am StringOFperils: Dude Repainting a Bookcase?
	🥁 ♥ 10:29am Brian in UK: We used to play a game called Guess the Kitchen Equipment, well it passed the time whilst washing up. You hit someone on the backside with said equipment and they have to guess what it is. Fun Huh.
	🥁 ♥ 10:30am Brian in UK: LG often wonder about that name.
	♥ 10:30am Doug Schulkind: Paul Chambers on bass. No one bowed like he bowed.
	🥁 ♥ 10:33am Brian in UK: Has there even been an Edward Kienholtz retrospective over your way?
	🥁 ♥ 10:37am doctorjazz: This String/Sax combo rocks!
	🥁 ♥ 10:39am βrian: "Deep fryer!"
	♥ 10:39am WR: <3 ❤ Billy Bang Much respect Frank Lowe. Did read all the Phil Schaap comments. Interesting unique powerful addition to radio and documenting of the music he loved. Ok, back to the work screen.
	♥ 10:39am Doug Schulkind: Now everyone's just a little Zoom tipsy. Amirite?!?!
	🥁 ♥ 10:40am Brian in UK: Rice Cooker!
	♥ 10:40am Doug Schulkind: @WR I've always thought that <3 looked like a milk cow tipped over.
	🥁 ♥ 10:41am Jeff Golick: Marion Brown's birthday just happened, I think?
	♥ 10:41am Listener Gregory: You are truly digging deep with these obscure jazz cuts, Doug.
	🥁 ♥ 10:41am PAULS: Better than talkin out your ass... 3<
	♥ 10:41am northguineahills: 2001 was the last and only time I saw Billy Bang (at Stonewall)
	🥁 ♥ 10:42am βrian: For no reason, just thinking about Marian McPartland.
	♥ 10:44am Doug Schulkind: Well howdy, northguineahills!
	🥁 ♥ 10:44am doctorjazz: I think Dave Burrell is underappreciated, think he's teriffic!
	♥ 10:45am Doug Schulkind: @βrian Perhaps there are routes to thoughts of Marian McPartland coming from talk of Mary Lou Williams and Phil Schaap.
	♥ 10:45am WR: I dunno Doug, I just try to follow the lead of the innovative young people like Uncle Michael on technological communication matters.
	♥ 10:47am StringOFperils: @docjazz > Agreed. More terrific than ever. This is a big world of crap.
	🥁 ♥ 10:51am PAULS: You said "besotted"
	♥ 10:52am WR: That Roland Kirk recording was released on Mercury. I looked because I was not familiar with that recording and thought I had seen all his recordings on Atlantic, Had not seen the cover before, www.discogs.com... Very striking photo of Kirk on the cover.
	♥ 10:52am Listener Gregory: The sot is never far away in GTDS.
	♥ 10:53am Doug Schulkind: @WR Ah! Thanks for catching that! Not sure how I boneheaded that, but I did.
	♥ 10:55am Doug Schulkind: Surely the widest known of the "Soundz" bands from Ghana. Surely the result of having been championed by Hugh Masekela. Surely.
	♥ 10:55am StringOFperils: Hezbollah Soundz was never this funky.
	♥ 10:56am Doug Schulkind: @PAULS One of my go-to words. @StringOFperils I hear they really bombed in Israel. (I kid! I kid!)
	♥ 11:02am StringOFperils: Hah!

	♥ 11:23am WR: elohay Mx Baba Bee and solo mon. The solo scope vids last night were great vids for music accompaniment. I watched for about 45 minutes last night while listening to the drummer stream. Since I had come in late, didn't notice that you had posted a vid play list early in the comments.

	♥ 11:53am solo mon: What if we got rid of money and just payed in knock knock jokes? Who would be rich then?
	♥ 11:54am Doug Schulkind: @bobdc The story is about Mr. Fears himself. I don't know the story behind that particular number. Probably unissued because the master was damaged. (At least it sounded damaged.) Here is more info about Bobby Lee Fears than you ever need to know: www.sirshambling.com...

	10:58am Daniel Manning: Hi I was just reminiscing with some band mates about an incident involving Bobby Lee Fears. I’d like to fill in some details myself, and in looking around saw your comments. It was a very wild episode for us. Especially with the connection there was to the rainbow wig/sports events guy: Roland Stewart Bobby hired my band to accompany him for a re-union show with Lester Maddox in the early 80s .Bobby’s 'manager' was the original John 3:16 guy with the multi-colored clown wig at ball games. We had a few rehearsals with BLF, but Maddox never came -then the gig night came at the Penta Hotel penthouse suite. They had publicized the event well, and all the tv stations were there, but Maddox never made the show due to illness. Bobby was recently out of prison, he’d said…for manslaughter. (For “shooting a man in the eye” in a jealous rage). Roland Stewart (the rainbow wig guy) was his finance man and always accompanied Bobby- Roland was getting money in the mail from supportive Christians around the country. He paid us in cash every rehearsal and before the performance. (It was all so shady seeming that we got paid up front always) I’ve finally seen clips of their routine from the 70’s (the guvna and Bobby), now that we have the internet. I never realized it would have been so racist. Thank God Maddox never showed up. We wound up playing for the whole show, while Bobby waited for Maddox to arrive. When he didn’t ever come, BLF got up and did a couple numbers, till the tv cameras started packing up and going home. Very strange. We heard a lot of great stories about their experiences though... and we'll always remember Bobby's famous line as he gathered us, (all of us were fairly bewildered about the whole thing), into a prayer circle beforehand: "Sweet Jesus, take us to Vegas"
	♥ 3:49am Doug Schulkind: @Daniel Manning Jawdropping stories! Thanks for sharing.
