  9:15am Paul Sherratt:

  9:16am Drummer Some:

Ah, Paul, sweet Una from Tunapuna!
  9:20am em:

beautiful rethinking of anitra's dance! makes so much sense as jazz, it's almost modal already.
  9:20am north guinea hills:

Man, what I'd give to walk into a bar w/ some pianey blues.
  9:23am Brian Sanders:

You're dating yourself there, Paul!! Trouble is I know who you mean!! Or was it Russ Conway?
  9:32am annie:

goooood morning!!! i made it... but have to leave soon to give a reiki treatment..
  9:38am dc pat:

'lo folks. Drummer Some, this is exactly what I want to hear right now--Abid David, thanks.
  9:40am Drummer Some:

I felt we could all use a little Abid David just now.
  9:41am Lisa:

I love this Paul Robeson!! How can I possibly work with this incredible selection?
  9:41am dc pat:

Paul!! Tell like it is, man!!
  9:41am JCityAaron:

  9:51am DRR:

Nice show this morning.
  9:57am Cecile:

Today is Molly and McGee the Owl Day, as declared by the city council of San Marcus, CA, where the pair nest and hunt.

To celebrate, I'm going to eat whole rabbits and birds!

Chocolate ones.

Owl cam here:
http://www.sportsmansparadiseonline.com/Live_Owl_Nest_Box_Cam.html
  10:04am dc pat:

that's one sleepy owl
  10:04am north guinea hills:

Just saw Molly feed the owlets tearing apart a carcass.

oh, Jews of Uganda, the Abayudaya: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abayudaya

Interesting story.
  10:05am Cecile:

Gary Lucas and Dean Bowman do a great version of Hinay Ma T`ov on their latest record, "Beat the Devil"
  10:06am yayson:

speaking of tearing things apart, this is what i was watching when hank came on. very appropriate! two pit bulls tear into a cop car in Tennessee.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8588407.stm

i don't know if it was on the border, tho
  10:06am Cecile:

Also, Doug, could you at some point play that great version of Red Top by Anthony Braxton and Muhal Richard Abrams? Not today, just sometime?
  10:08am Drummer Some:

It would be my esteemed pleasure, Cecile.
  10:08am ∂avid:

Hank always feels good on a friday....
  10:10am Cecile:

thank you, Doug!

david, you are so right.
  10:11am chris:

this stuff is PRICELESS!
  10:12am dc pat:

I concur on Hank....and I NEVER use the word "concur"
  10:15am north guinea hills:

I suddenly want southern buttermilk biscuits, like the kind I used to eat in Florigia growing up.....
  10:15am mko:

truly, this brightening my morning beyond all expectations.
  10:19am chris:

REAL country!! Good catch Doug! ...and thanks
  10:25am J-Mar:

You know the awesome thing about Hank Williams is that he sounds great no matter whether you're happy or lonesome and blue.
  10:27am Cecile:

Country music and buttery-soft, low gluten Southern baked goods. mmmmmmmmm. This is a great nation, fellow listeners.

J-Mar, so very true.
  10:27am chris:

amen J-mar. Reminds me of being a kid and spending my summers in rural Minnesota, listening to the local broadcasts late late at night and feeling safe and secure in the music
  10:27am chris:

amen J-mar. Reminds me of being a kid and spending my summers in rural Minnesota, listening to the local broadcasts late late at night and feeling safe and secure in the music
  10:28am J-Mar:

One of the finest writers I've ever had the privilege of working with had the following question taped to his computer:

"Can you say it as plain as Hank Williams?"

I think about that sometimes when I'm trying to crank out a piece of writing for my job.
  10:29am MD:

THANK HANK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  10:36am seang:

@ J-Mar --was that Dave Hickey?
  10:46am J-Mar:

@seang: do you mean did Dave Hickey say that, or did I work with Dave Hickey (or both)? It makes perfect sense if Dave Hickey was the one who said it first, but I never have had the privilege of working with him. The person in question is Jim Ridley, who for years was the film critic for the alt-weekly in Nashville, and now is the editor. I still maintain he is one of the best critics and writers I've ever read anywhere.
  10:52am seang:

Oh, I thought maybe you worked with him. He writes about Hank in the New Literary History of America: http://noiseforitsownsake.blogspot.com/2010/01/poetic-sturdiness-of-hank-williams.html
He also wrote the lyrics to "The Ballad of Billy and Oscar"-incredible lyrics--Jim Dickinson does a cover of it on the album "Free Beer Tomorrow" --whoa long post!
  11:06am Hendrik:

Yes De Snaar !! Great record :-)... My father was and is the best friend of this record label's boss :_)
  11:19am Cecile:

snaar, where can I find that in any format?
  11:22am Drummer Some:

Here Cecile:

http://time-has-told-me.blogspot.com/2009/05/snaar.html
  11:24am Cecile:

thank you!
  11:25am Pete:

Wow, haven't heard qburns in a while! ;-)
  11:29am Drummer Some:

Q-Burns is no relation to X-Ray Burns OR Mr. Burns.
  11:31am J-Mar:

...or Panther Burns?
  11:33am monica:

i'm floating, doug. great show today!
  11:33am still b/p:

George Burns.
"Say good night, feng shui."
  11:35am Drummer Some:

Monica,
I'd give anything to be the bass player on this track. Unfortunately, the healing powers of this music is NOT covered in the omnibus Health Care Reform Act!
  11:38am Drummer Some:

That Kongo Retro Band track is here:

(Merry Passover!)
  11:39am ∂avid:

was this "Money Be No Sand" comp ever featured on the audio motherload?

http://musicformaniacs.blogspot.com/2010/02/afro-spazz.html

it'd fit in great with your show....
  11:42am Leigh:

Hi Doug, thanks for "La Belle Epoque: French Girls 1965-1968". Très génial!
  11:43am Drummer Some:

∂avid,
I've played that wonderful disc on the show tons, but I've never shared that one one Mining the Audio Motherlode.
  11:48am r:

loving this set!
  11:55am J-Mar:

Ngozi Family is kickin'!
