Listener comments!
	7:03pm Observations: here we go, we are live!
	🥁 7:18pm WR: TIme slipping past me today, here to hear now. Hi David.
	🥁 7:40pm WR: François Bayle is new to me. Thank you.
	7:51pm Observations: Everything on Recollection GRM is amazing francois-bayle.bandcamp.com...
	7:53pm Observations: www.discogs.com...
	🥁 8:15pm WR: Saw that there is recent Guardian UK interview with LKJ, haven't read it yet.
	🥁 8:16pm WR: Thank you for the links.
	8:43pm coelacanth∅: good evening David and WR
	8:45pm Listener Gregory: I am quietly here.
	8:46pm Observations: greetings one and all
	🥁 8:54pm WR: Insect Trust. Didnt notice any clarinet on that, but I was up on a ladder changing light so not listening closely. Last week saw Robert Palmer's daughter documentary about him and the Pipers of Jajouka. Palmer was in The Insect Trust if I'm not confusing.
	🥁 8:55pm WR: Hi LG & coelacanth∅
	8:57pm Observations: Alto Saxophone, Clarinet, Recorder – Robert Palmer Baritone Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Piccolo Flute, Flute, Drum [Sewer] – Trevor Koehler unaware of that film! i love RP, one of my favorite writers
	9:05pm Listener Gregory: Huh! Hi, @WR. What's the name of that documentary? I was playing the Ornette Coleman piece with the Master Musicians of Jajouka (and Palmer), and a colleague came to my office to demand what that hellish music was. She had not even heard of MMJ!! Incredible.
	9:06pm Listener Gregory: I used to love reading Palmer's reviews in the Times. I learned a lot from them, which cannot always be said. I remember his book Deep Blues as being quite good, too.
	9:25pm northguineahills: wasn't expecting planet mu recs....
	9:26pm Observations: always expect the unexpected here! lol
	9:28pm Listener Gregory: Mo Mu!
	9:29pm northguineahills: (looks over my shoulder for the Spanish Inquisition)....
	9:31pm Observations: Speaker Music has a new book just out. Assembling a Black Counter Culture DeForrest Brown, Jr primaryinformation.org...
	9:32pm northguineahills: the name deforrest brown sounds familiar....
	🥁 9:33pm WR: LG! Ah MMJ! I saw I had something saved with that file name and I was wondering what is MMJ, Master Musicians of Jajouka, of course. Now if I can remember where the file is. The documentary is called The Hand of Fatima. At the moment I don't think it is available on any stream or uboob. I saw it via a seminar with online showing which included discussion with Augusta Palmer. In the discussion she said she is working on getting clearance on some of the music to be able to offer it via streaming a service or two. The doc was initially released in 2009. It is the daughter, who had very little contact with Palmer until very late in his life, using Palmer's intense relationship with MMJ as key to try to connect with her father and his legacy.
	9:33pm northguineahills: thanks, David!
	9:35pm Listener Gregory: Thanks, @WR. I will keep my eyes open for it. Also, MMJ can stand for Medeski, Martin, & Jones, but that is another story.
	🥁 9:37pm WR: Here is NYTimes review of the doc. Might be a paywall or limited access for those not registered user of nyt. www.nytimes.com...
	9:48pm Listener Gregory: Wow, I would really like to see this. It's always disappointing when you find out that your musical heroes or authors had such problematic personal lives. Fortunately, all 5 of my ex-wives are very close friends!
	9:49pm Jeff Golick: Dog not loving this one.
	🥁 9:50pm WR: These Alterations folks are wild and crazy. LOL, Jeff, there are random whistles.
	9:52pm Listener Gregory: The dog is not a sustaining member!
	🥁 9:52pm WR: Wait, that Nation / Version vamp. You the trickster, David, or ?
	9:53pm Observations: just dropping in little sonic cookies - not me btw
	10:00pm Listener Gregory: Thanks a lot, David! I hope it wasn't Doug's dog that made you sign off.
	🥁 10:00pm WR: Thank you David. Last 3 hours has covered a lot of territory. Onward.
	10:01pm Observations: that is it from me, see you all next week
